PoliticsAre We The Original Hebrews? Are Igbos Right in Their Claim? by Rosskivvy(op): 10:46pm On Nov 09, 2020
Are you aware the original Hebrews were black people?

Igbos say they are descended from the ancient Israelites.

But it could be more than just the Igbos.

It could be the rest of us forest West Africans as well, such as the Yorubas, Edos, Efiks, Ijaws, Ashantis, Ewes, etc.

Are you aware that Jerusalem was invaded and destroyed by Romans in 70 AD leading to the fleeing of over a million Jews into Africa?

It is arguable that possibly half the current black African population is descended from those fleeing Israelites.

''From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering''

Zephania 3:10


Beyond the rivers of Ethiopia (ie the Nile) looking from Israel, sits West and Central Africa.


''Are ye not as children of the Ethiopians unto Me, O children of Israel, saith the Lord..''

Amos 9:7


''Do not gaze at me because I am black, because the sun has looked upon me. My mother's sons were angry with me; they made me keeper of the vineyards, but my own vineyard I have not kept!''

Song of Solomon 1:6


''His feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the roar of many waters.''

Revelation 1:15


''My skin turns black and falls from me, and my bones burn with heat.''

Job 30:30


''Our skin was black like an oven because of the terrible famine.''

Lamentations 5:10


Again, the Lord said to [Moses], “Put your hand inside your cloak.” And he put his hand inside his cloak, and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous like snow. Then God said, “Put your hand back inside your cloak.” So he put his hand back inside his cloak, and when he took it out, behold, it was restored like the rest of his flesh.

Exodus 4:6-7




Curse for ancient black rebellion against Yahweh:

''Therefore you shall serve your enemies whom the Lord will send against you, in hunger and thirst, in nake.dness, and lacking everything. And he will put a yoke of iron on your neck until he has destroyed you. [slave trade].

The Lord will bring a nation against you from far away, from the end of the earth, swooping down like the eagle [USA slave trade], a nation whose language you do not understand, a hard-faced nation who shall not respect the old or show mercy to the young.''

Deuteronomy 28:48-50

Now you've come with another piece of brainless adulation, as if the USA is not a country comprising human beings like you.

Now Trump has just fired his defense secretary. He could start a nuclear war to cause massive destruction. He has 2 months to do a lot of damage. Keep saying ''this and that cannot happen in America''. Una eyes go soon clear. Slaves

So, go ahead and return the racism against the whites na.
What you call 'tribalism' is actually nationalism. Precolonial Africa comprised ethnic groups which were nations in their own right. The colonialists amalgamated those ethnicities into artificial nation-states with no grounding in African political organization. The 'tribalism' you see within African nations is simply a natural reaction by the people to an unnatural, externally imposed state of affairs. It doesn't signify that Africans hate each other.

Rubbish. No one takes African serious until we fix our countries.
Go and study the phenomenon of racism, you ignorant little twerp. It has NOTHING to do with your economy in Africa, or living standards of Africans. In fact I put it to you that the more successful Africa becomes, the more racism Africans will suffer.

Go and read Dr Frances Cress Welsing's seminal work, The isis Papers where she writes that, (to paraphrase):

''White people hate black people. The reason white people hate black people is because they are not black. If you know this about white people you need know little else. If you do not know this about white people, everything else you know about them will only confuse you''.

Racism is a phenomenon that is based on hatred and jealousy of the fact that blacks are melaninated, ie have the chemical, MELANIN, which makes them a reproductive threat to non melaninated peoples, ie whites, at the extreme end of that spectrum.

Racism is a group reaction to the fear of white annihilation, a deep subconscious fear by a white minority in a world of 'coloured' people. Blacks are at the worst end of the hatred and envy because blacks have the highest amount of melanin, and thus the highest capacity to annihilate whites by reproductive copulation. That is why there is a ''one drop rule'' in America to date. One drop of black blood makes you a black person by social and legal definition. Where a black and a white reproduce, the offspring becomes 'coloured', and ends its white ancestry.

Racism is a system and a mechanism used to delay/subvert/avoid white annihilation in a world of melaninated people.

It has NOTHING to do with whatever blacks did or did not do. If you work in a white environment and are 'over' successful, your white co-workers will conspire to bring you down.

But YOU are the equivalent of all those Africans you say ''treat foreigners better than Africans''.

You've spent the ENTIRE thread trying to justify WHY Africans are worthy of inhuman maltreatment by foreigners!

So how can you be criticising or pointing out what you yourself are doing?

Truth is, Africans have ALWAYS treated foreigners with extreme hospitality, and this is not limited to white or pale-skinned foreigners. In rural settings where tradition still holds sway, an African of Igbo extraction will traditionally treat Yoruba or Hausa visitors to his home with great dignity and hospitality, and insist they eat before the household itself eats, and vice-versa. It is an African thing, and a noble African tradition that should be emulated by all the world's people.

What we will NOT accept is to be brutalized overseas by racists, and we will certainly not allow YOUR type, wallowing in colonial subservience and self-hatred, to tell us we 'deserve' anybody's ill-treatment.

Go on YouTube and see the videos of Kenyans, Ghanaians, Sudanese et al, with harrowing stories of discrimination.

India maltreats her own indigenous black population, whom they placed in a caste of 'untouchables'. What was THEIR crime? Nothing. Just persecuted for being black.

In America, racism against blacks is legendary and historic. Their crime? Their skin color. Nothing else.

Nigeria is a developing nation, like 80% of countries on earth.

It is not a crime or something to be ashamed about to be a developing nation.

India itself is a developing nation, and has millions of her people migrating overseas.

In many parts of the US you have whole city districts named 'Chinatown', owing to the huge number of Chinese people there. The street and shop signs are even in Chinese.

All this despite China being a big economic superpower that rivals the US.

Emigration is part of life, and has always been. The bigger the country, the more its emigrants, especially if it's a developing country with a large educated population. It is nothing to be ashamed about, or feel inferior about.

There are millions of Indians, Europeans and Chinese who have emigrated to Nigeria and elsewhere in Africa and beyond.

People like you never say those people are ''escaping their failed countries'', and should ''go back and fix India'' etc, but you are quick to say that about Nigerian emigrants because of your inferiority complex, ignorance, and self hate/low self esteem.

This looks quite impressive from the air. It could be somewhere in Italy or Portugal. Except for ONE problem.

The problem I've always had with cities like Onitsha is that these buildings do not correspond with the street/road infrastructure, which is VERY poor. They rarely build roads with covered drains and sidewalks, which should be the norm on every street.

Anambra leaders MUST start to build proper street infrastructure to correspond with these nice high-rise buildings, or it just amounts to putting lipstick on a pig.

Covered drains are not a luxury. Sidewalks are not a luxury. This is BASIC infrastructure. Add that to this nice skyline, and you'll have cities that can compare with any on earth.

How the streets should look:
