What Blogs Have Joined Together, Let No War Put Asunder

Blogging Under The Radar: The Blogosphere Becomes The Antithesis of the Middle East Crisis

What the UN has failed to achieve since 1948 to date, the 3 years old blogosphere has achieved in 3 weeks to propel the virtual momentum to accelerate the cause of peace in the Middle East as Israeli and Lebanese bloggers establish a common rapport in their virtual world. And the expanding blogosphere is fast changing the atmosphere of enmity between these two enemies.

The Lebanese government forbids its citizens contact with Israelis. But keeping a lid on the Internet is a bit like trying to shovel sand with a sieve. And in the midst of war, scouring online for views from the other side has been one way for Lebanese and Israelis to alleviate the terrible sense of the impotence of standing by as their countries bled. Thousands of people, often posting in English, seem compelled to try to make some sense of the chaos -- or, through personal narratives, to help debunk stereotypes and misperceptions.Washington Post, 27/08/2006


Why should the UN watch as the Lebanese government forbids contact with Israelis?
Why should the UN permit such an undiplomatic state policy against Israel?

"The lack of news about Israel -- not an unimportant country in the region -- is astounding," wrote the political consultant, under his then-nom-de-Web, Lebanon Profile. "Not knowing about 'them' is the worst crime we can commit. It invalidates them as humans, as if they don't even matter. They are Stalin's faceless enemy, the rabid dog, the evil blood suckers whom it is righteous to kill. Our papers definitely need to start covering more than major political events in Israel."Washington Post, 27/08/2006


It is sheer wickedness for these sworn enemies of Israel to poison the hearts and souls of the majority of their ignorant citizens against making peace with Israel.

Democracy Will Only Succeed in Nigeria if...

Afrobarometer, a nonprofit polling project reports that:
Sixty-one percent of Africans surveyed said they regard democracy as preferable to other political systems. But the pollsters found that flaws in many democracies across the continent have undermined support for the concept.
Washington Post

Democracy has been hijacked by kleptocrats and plutocrats in Africa.

The obvious truth is the fact that most of the African rulers from Nigeria to Egypt have not been faithful to the tenets of democracy in the governance of their countries. But majority of the citizens want democracy to succeed. And we should begin the breeding and training of democratic leaders from the grassroots.

The Nigerian government is a quasi-democracy controlled by plutocrats and kleptocrats. Nigeria is best described as a corrupt plutocracy:"A system of government whereby wealth and the benefits that wealth accrues lead to a concentration of power in the hands of those with disproportionate access to financial resources."Source

Democracy will only succeed in Nigeria if the Rule of Law prevails.

Democracy still remains the most proactive system of government in Africa. And we should do our best to support the advancement of democracy in Africa.

South Africa still remains the Beacon of Democracy in Africa.

Hysteria in Nigeria Over the Third Term and Other Matters

Perhaps, you expect me to join in the public jubilation in Nigeria over the rejection of the Third Term by the National Assembly? And clap my hands to applaud the honourable representatives and senators in Nigeria for defending democracy?But, I am not fooled by the ambiguous and erroneous politics in Nigeria. Because, I want the so called Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to continue with the probe of the allegations of bribery and corruption among the legislators as they were cajoled and tempted in cash and kind by the two opposing camps of the sponsors of the Third Term Constitution Amendment Bill and those against the bill.
He also said the decision by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to probe allegations of graft in the third term project was welcome, but added "I hope the probe is genuine and I hope we will see the result."
~Senator Uche ChukwumerijeAllAfrica.com


President Olusegun Obasanjo is suffering from senile dementia as at present and I pray that God cures him of his madness. He needs to regain his sanity and his Otta Farms would be the best place for his healing in retirement.

Meanwhile, immigrants are popping champagne in America as Immigration Proposals Pass Test In Senate. And I am happy for thousands of Nigerians who have been sacred of their future as illegal immigrants. They can now sigh with relief for a while.Then, the Washington Post news report that U.S. is secretly backing Warlords in Somalia does not surprise me, because that is exactly what the US is doing in Sudan by backing the rebels and using the Western mainstream media to misinform the ignorant public that the Janjaweed militia and the Sudanese governemnt are the real evils in Darfur. The rebels are actually the real devils perpetrating evils in Darfur. --

Democracy is the Nemesis of Islam


"It is true, I criticized the Taliban because they were so harsh and
tortured people," Rauf said. "But if you leave Islam, our law says you must be
killed. If Abdul Rahman stood before me right now, I would kill him
myself."
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/04/21/AR2006042101747.html

But, Democracy will never allow Abdul Rauf to kill Abdul Rashman.

Because, Democracy and Islam are opposites.

Why are Afghans' Uneasy Peace With Democracy?

Afghans are uneasy over democracy, because to majority of the ignorant millions of Muslims, Democracy is an American Creed that is contrary to their own Islamic Creed. Moreover, Democracy is the Christian Crusaders' ideology that is being used to attack and destroy their own religion and ideology. Because, Islam is both a religion and an ideology to all the Muslims and to accept the Western religion and ideology is to reject their own Islam.

They have seen Democracy as the American weapon or an American demon being unleashed against them. Therefore, they won't accept the American system of governance and life.

Democracy is the nemesis of Islam.

The Psyche of the Terrorists and the Final Solution

The Holocaust Next Time 2: Israel Will Be Annihilated

"Israel Will Be Annihilated", the lunatic President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran has threatened again and even a moron on the streets of New York City knows that every threat from the Islamist terrorists is not a joke. As Zacarias Moussaoui was also boasting in court that both America and Israel will be destroyed.The United States of America must be ready for war against the Islamists in Iran and the Middle East. Because, Zacarias Moussaoui is the epitome of the sadistic Islamist and all the terrorists at large.

I want the rest of the world to understand the unrepentant nature of the lunatic fringes of the Islamic world and the threat of their resolve to exterminate the Jews.

We cannot fold our arms and watch as our grandfathers did and over 3 million Jews were annihilated in The Holocaust of the last world war. We have to stop the holocaust next time.

EXECUTED FOR TAKING BIBLES INTO SAUDI ARABIA

By J. Grant Swank, Jr. MichNews.com

Apr 11, 2006

The Koran was placed for the first time in the White House library. It was a winter banquet prepared by host and hostess US President and Mrs. George W. Bush. Muslims from throughout the nation were invited—both males and females. The two genders ate in separate rooms with Mrs. Bush with the women and Mr. Bush with the men.

As the Koran was lifted high with honor that evening, it took its place in the Pennsylvania Avenue residence of the most powerful ruler on Earth.

Now when it comes to the Christians’ holy book, the Bible, it is shredded at Saudi Arabian airports. An attendant will not ask questions but will take the book to the nearby shredder as the tourist watches God’s Word destroyed.

If a quantity of Bibles is taken into the country—and found—the carrier will get several dozen whiplashes. If the confiscator concludes that the punishment should be more severe, the tourist could be executed for carrying divine revelation into Saudi Arabia.

Muslims in free countries demand—and I mean demand—all freedoms. They will not tolerate any discrimination whatsoever. Such web sites as the Council on American-Islamic Affairs (CAIR) instruct readers what authority to contact if there is any sign of alleged discrimination or so-called mistreatment of an Islamic in the United States.

Yet the American traveler to the Muslim country may be shot throw if he has a quantity of Bibles in his belongings. Executed or whip lashed. Consider the cost.

With that, it is ridiculous that free countries bow and scrape before Muslims’ demands. For instance, in Germany Muslims have demanded and got pork removed from soup kitchens for the poor. The officialdom is afraid of what Muslims will do if pork remains in the soup. Imagine the weak-kneed authorities throughout Germany in condescending to such rude demands from the Allah-worshipers.

So it is that Europe that will succumb to the Devil. And then the European Union will wonder how it came about that it was sucked under—and quickly.

As far I am concerned, Muslims should be ousted from free countries and sent to their own habitats. No Muslim should be admitted to a free country. They are all suspect because of the spread of this devilish cult around the globe. Islam breeds destruction, despair and death. Christianity provides life, light and love in Jesus. Consider the difference. The two cannot integrate under the title of "multiculturalism."

Everywhere the Muslims go they spread venom.

When Mr. Bush’s surveillance program was put into affect, Muslims immediately demanded meetings with top government officials in Washington DC. They got the red carpet treatment.

You, the usual American citizen, try to get an appointment at one of those offices and see if you can get through. The Muslims do get through and they do sit in those chairs in the rooms of the highest echelons. This has to stop if democracies hope to survive the devil’s strangle hold.

Why was the Catholic priest shot in the back while kneeling in his Turk chapel? Because he was praying to another deity than Allah. So a Muslim murdered him while praying alone in his sanctuary. That was just days ago.

The pope then asks Muslims for tolerance just as they expect tolerance in non-Muslims countries. Does not the pope know Islam?

There is no tolerance in Islam—none. It is Islam world rule or nothing. There is absolutely no margin for tolerance in the Koran. Instead, that unholy publication describes specifically how to gouge out the infidel eyes, lop off their ears, tongues, fingers and toes. No tolerance.

Contrast Islam with the gospel of Jesus. He offers forgiveness for repented sins, mercy and grace upon the contrite soul, the hope of heavenly bliss, the indwelling of His Holy Spirit in comfort and wisdom, and the joy of living by faith. There is nothing parallel to that in Islam. Nothing.

In Saudi Arabia the haters of the Bible are called "religious police." They are members of the Committee for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice. That is how the devil reverses legitimate terms and definitions—good is bad and bad is good. Islamic vice is virtue. Islamic vice is virtue.

Because of the shiria, the hellish "law and justice" system of Islam, there are no criminals within Islam. Muslims can slit a woman’s throat in "honor killing." But that is not a crime; it is a pious act. And so forth with other atrocious deeds in Allah’s name.

That makes the Muslims worldwide the criminal-free community and the most spiritual lot on the globe. Whatever crime they commit is not a crime but a religious duty. Consequently, when Saddam Hussein stood in his court this week to ask "Where’s the crime?" he was sincere. He has not committed one crime in his life. He has only followed the Koran and thereby is an Islamic saint.

At Guantanamo Bay Muslims complained about their Koran being mistreated. The US responded with all sorts of protocol detail in how non-Muslim personnel were to hold, handle, place and transfer the Koran. Reading the detail was a joke, but not to those personnel who had to walk the razor’s edge.

Not only the Bible, but any Christian symbol is repulsive to Muslims. That’s why they burn churches. Churches this week have been burnt to the ground throughout Pakistan. Try to build a church in Turkey. It will take a decade or more to get the blueprints approved. Once it’s constructed, the church could burn in the night. Who will have lit the match?

Yasser Arafat was known for murdering Christian believers and then leveling their sanctuaries or using the church buildings for his militia.

The Apocalyptic War On Terror

When your enemy is not even afraid of death and you dread death more than anything else, what do you do?The war on terror is an unending war. Because, terror has no end and even continues in hell.America is at war with terrorists who are all psychopaths/sociopaths and they are heretics and lunatics of a religion that has made majority of the adherents fatalists. They have hated their enemies even before President George W.Bush was born. So, Bush is not the cause of the present predicament of the war in Iraq. This war is worse than Vietnam. The war in Vietnam was an ideological political war. But, the war in Iraq is apocalyptic. America is actually the scape-goat of the war between Judaism and Islam.America should let the Jews and the Arabs settle their scores. Read the following:

Jesus Christ Was An Ice Skater and Other Stories

Today I am actually promoting Andy Wibbels new bestselling book "BlogWild" and now the breaking news from the Washington Post that my beloved Lord and Saviour and Messiah Jesus Christ was an Ice Skater. Because, some miracle doubting Israeli and U.S. Scientists can now prove that "Floating Ice May Explain How Jesus Walked on Water". The researchers can show us how Jesus could have walked on water.

America is governed by Realism and not by Idealism

Hilary Clinton is free to dream and gaze at her utopian reflections of America in her stream of consciousness. But America is not ruled by idealism, but by the existential reality challenging the survival of humanity ~Orikinla Osinachi
