“Hildegarde, please my sister please, Africa, Asia, Europe, America, Middle East and all land on earth belong to one God, all races lose or inherit any part of it largely by their behaviour or on some rare occasion by only God’s unauditable sovereignty.
“If my humble opinion is not to true prove it by giving one example of a race that has never been enslaved or ruled by another?”
All I could conclude was that this was in response to my piece on attempts to recolonise Africa, where I called on Africa to stamp their authority as Africans. If God had meant us to be Europeans and/or Russians, He could have simply placed us in those parts of the world.
What I deduced from this message was that every part of the world has at one point or the other been colonised, so, what’s the fuss? I also deduced that colonisation was a result of some misdeed by the leadership of the affected countries. Really? According to whom?
When God created the heavens and the earth as recorded in Genesis, He gave man dominion over that which He had created. Slavery and colonisation, and now neo-colonialism whose face is rearing its ugly head are attempts at corrupting God’s original purpose.
Tsakang is also trying to tell me that colonisers run their countries so well that at the end of the day, they are assigned the responsibility to go and be masters of badly governed countries.
He or she is also concluding that the partition of Africa in the late 19th century which was how Europe parceled out Africa to each other was justifiable because even then, Africa’s governance systems were not good.
Tsakang is also telling us that the resources that God gave Africa can only be well-managed by the Anglo-Saxon world.
How very sad! Is it a wonder that Africa’s former colonisers now led by the United States of America think that they can once again have a free-for-all on the continent?
Maybe Tsakang should know that as I write, Julian Assange, WikiLeaks founder has just confirmed that Google, Facebook and Yahoo! are “tools of the US intelligence community”.
We know how much excitement WikiLeaks has caused the world over, including claims that the founder could be a CIA functionary.
Won’t the US be happy to have a go on Zimbabwe when people make such justifications on the Anglo-Saxon’s interference in the internal matters of sovereign nations — that we deserve to be colonised.
This writer will also reiterate what Assange said. Even the SMS platform that Tsakang used is not meant for us to use as a source for getting competitive intelligence information, but it is for them.
They created them. You say what you want, but within that framework, they pick out what they want to use — against you.
But let me turn to an issue that is very worrying, especially among sons and daughters of the soil who believe that Zimbabwe is for Zimbabweans, and no power, no matter how mighty it perceives itself, has the right to interfere in its internal affairs.
Two days after the purported assassination of the world’s most wanted terrorist of the decade Osama Bin Laden, I asked a very respectable businesswoman, wife and mother: “Where will these endless fights lead us? What does it mean, and what does the future hold for us, nationally and globally?”
After a deep sigh she responded, “The way I see it is that these global ‘contractions’ started with the financial meltdown in August 2008. For those who have experienced child-birth, they know what I mean by contractions. They are periodic and rapid at the same time.
“But from the look of it, it looks like no institution will be left untouched, just like the whole body is affected during birth. Things are being shaken up, and in 2008 it started with the financial institutions.
“Now it is with political systems. It is a period of uncertainty and bewilderment. Look at the earthquakes and tsunamis. Look at what is happening in North Africa . . . But we all feel the ripple effects of these events, don’t we?”
It was a breakthrough to some of the answers that I seek, but I asked her, whether this mandate to replace political systems has been bestowed on Western nations (former colonisers), the United States in particular, and why it should be former colonies that have to go through changes dictated to by the West.
The answer was, “uncertainty”.
However, The Herald’s analysts have in the past few months amply shown that the writing is on the wall — the Anglo-Saxon world once again thinks that Africa is ready for the taking. I use “Anglo-Saxon” with the explicit meaning in the documentary, ‘The Obama Deception’.
When she likened the current goings-on to contractions felt before child-birth, I reflected on the United States President Barack Obama, and why the leader of the world’s most powerful nation should be dogged by issues of race, especially his “Americanness”.
Almost half-way through his first term, there are some people claiming that he was born in his late father’s country of origin, Kenya, while others maintain that he was born in Indonesia where he in actual fact spent his early years as a child?
Leading a powerful nation, one would expect that the most obvious issue would be his age, but, they are race and religion — two contentious aspects of his life, which he cannot run away from.
That he is African, is quite evident. His father Barack Hussein Obama Sr was not only black, but he was a Kenyan who went to study in the United States. But as I looked at the transcript of his birth certificate, I had questions which I have always had.
Last week, as they were putting final touches on an attempted assassination of the Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, which resulted in the death of his son and three grandchildren, a “victory for them” that was followed by the claimed assassination of Al Qaeda leader, Osama Bin Laden, the issue of his origin came up. This forced the White House to release the long form of his birth certificate. His father’s race is “African”.
It’s up to you dear reader to decide whether African is a race. The mother’s race is Caucasian.
But, maybe what amazes most in Alex Jones’ documentary, ‘The Obama Deception’, is when Obama says, “Contrary to the rumours that you for those, who cling to power”, what comes to his mind, when we know that Africa paid a heavy price for him to become the first black African President of the United States of America?
Last week again, there were reports that he would be going on a pilgrimage to Ireland to trace his Irish ancestry. How many times has he been to Africa, and has it benefited Africa?
When his Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton announces on CNN that “there is a lesson for all (African) leaders, who stay in power for too long and they should take notice that there will be consequences
What does it mean, when his father went to study in the United States at the height of the Mau Mau revolts against British rule?
What excites the American president when Britain and the EU are in the forefront of wanting to impose their systems onAfrica contrary to international law?
When he hears that Pik Botha (caricature of the evil apartheid system) remarked in the early 1990s, “Africa will be re-colonised, whether or not it accepts it” claiming then that it would be for the better of Africa, what would he tell presidentNelson Mandela, one of the revered symbols of resistance on the continent?”
In trying to save planet earth, is president Obama prepared to go all the way, as they are doing in Libya, and intend to do wherever they so wish?
Why has saving Africans from themselves become such a major pre-occupation of the Anglo-Saxon world when we know that the contractions that the financial meltdown caused are demonstrating that it is folly, because these are nothing but bubbles?
When a Moslem and restaurant employee in the US is asked to change his name because his Moslem name would scare away customers, do the restaurant proprietors know that the US president has Moslem names?
Is this then why there has been pressure for him to release his birth certificate?
But such compromise is not the first time.
After an ugly incident in which Harvard professor, Henry Lewis Gates was arrested while trying ope-ning the door to his house, president Obama reacted angrily — realising that the race issue was an issue.
However, after the media criticised his natural resp-onse to a situation that could have turned ugly, the US leader watered down the event with the famous “Beer summit” where he invited professor Gates and the police officer.
And, after a glass of beer, an embarrassing incident was swept under the carpet.
But, who does not know that if president Obama were to drive himself without security details, just like professor Gates, he would be stopped and questioned for no reason at all. Why, because he is black?
The woman who alerted the police about a black man opening a door next must have seen professor Gates several times, but she embarrassed him.
Even the white police detail, must have known him.
How many black Harvard professors would live in one street at a time?
The world is also not blind to the fact that natural disasters are no longer newsworthy, as the West goes after leaders they claim to be “evil”, especially African leaders. And none but their son leads this “cleansing” ceremony.
Is love not shrouded in the mystics of democratic tenets?
I conclude with what Paul Craig Roberts wrote on counterpu-nch.og: “What we are observing in Libya is the rebirth of colonialism.
Only this time it is not individual European governments competing for empires and resources.
The new colonialism operates under the cover of “the world community,” which means NATO and those countries that co-operate with it . . . ” The forthcoming African Union summit will show whether Africa will assist these “saviours”.
