he outspoken chief rabbi of South Africa, Dr. Warren Goldstein, has once again given voice to crucial truths that others have shamefully ignored.

He accused both Pope Francis and the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, of being indifferent to the murder of black Christians in Africa and the terrorism threat in Europe while being “outright hostile” to Israel’s attempts to battle jihadi forces led by Iran.

“The world is locked in a civilizational battle of values, threatened by terrorism and violent jihad,” said Goldstein. “At a time when Europe’s very future hangs in the balance, its two most senior Christian leaders have abandoned their most sacred duty to protect and defend the values of the Bible. Their cowardice and lack of moral clarity threaten the free world.”

Goldstein’s blistering accusations were on the mark.

Christians in Africa have been subjected to barbaric slaughter and persecution by Islamists for decades. Two years ago, Open Doors, an organization that supports persecuted Christians, observed: “In truth, there are very few Muslim countries—or countries with large Muslim populations—where Christians can avoid intimidation, harassment or violence.”

In January 2024, a report for Genocide Watch confirmed that, since 2000, 62,000 Christians in Nigeria have been murdered by Islamist groups in an ongoing attempt to exterminate Christianity. In addition, more than 32,000 moderate black Nigerian Muslims and non-faith individuals have been massacred.

According to a report in 2020 by the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom, Christians in Myanmar, China, Eritrea, India, Iran, Nigeria, North Korea, Pakistan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Syria and Vietnam are being persecuted.

These facts were reported in June by Peter Baum for The Daily Blitz. Yet the mainstream media all but ignore these atrocities. There are no marches in Western cities to accuse these countries of facilitating crimes against humanity. There are no NGO-inspired petitions to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to declare these countries and groups guilty of genocide.

Instead, the media and Western elites demonize Israel as the pariah of the world for defending itself against these genocidal Islamists. This unique and egregious double standard is the hallmark of classic antisemitism.

The attitude of the church leaders is even more astonishing. The hundreds of thousands of victims of this persecution are their flock. The goal of this onslaught is the wholesale destruction of the faith they lead.

Yet from Welby and the pope have emerged little more than occasional expressions of measured concern. And even then, they usually refuse to call out what’s happening by its proper name��the Islamist war to eradicate Christianity and destroy the West.

The 10-month war against Israel by Iran and its proxies following the Oct. 7 pogrom is a crucial front in that onslaught against Western civilization. Yet as Goldstein said, the pope and Welby have stood passively by while African Christians are “butchered by jihadi groups with direct ties to Israel’s enemies in Gaza and the West Bank.”

The jihadi ideology, he said, was also a clear and present danger to Europe. As a result of open-border policies, immigrants poured into the United Kingdom and across Europe, many of them “brandishing a violent jihadi ideology deeply hostile to Christianity, liberal democracy and western values.”

The result has been surging antisemitism leaving Diaspora Jews living in fear. Yet on the ideology fueling this civilizational onslaught, Welby and the pope have been silent. Instead, they have recycled the Islamists’ propaganda that demonizes and delegitimizes Israel with lies.

Aro Confederacy

The Aro Confederacy (1690–1902) was a political union orchestrated by the Aro people, Igbo subgroup, centered in Arochukwu in present-day southeastern Nigeria. The Aro Confederacy kingdom was founded after the beginning of the Aro-Ibibio Wars. Their influence and presence was all over Eastern Nigeria, lower Middle Belt, and parts of present-day Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea during the 18th and 19th centuries. The Arochukwu Kingdom was an economic, political, and an oracular center as it was home of the Ibini Ukpabi oracle, High Priests, the Aro King Eze Aro, and central council (Okpankpo). The Aro Confederacy was a powerful and influential political and economic alliance of various Igbo-speaking communities in southeastern Nigeria. It emerged during the 17th century and played a significant role in the region until the late 19th century.

The exact origins of the Aro Confederacy are not precisely documented, but it is believed to have been established around the mid-17th century. The Aro people, who were part of the Igbo ethnic group, inhabited the region around present-day Arochukwu in Abia State, Nigeria. They were skilled traders and missionaries who played a pivotal role in connecting various Igbo communities. This migration and their military power, and wars with neighboring kingdoms like supported by their alliances with several related neighboring Igbo and eastern Cross River militarized states (particularly Ohafia, Edda, Abam, Abiriba, Afikpo, Ekoi, Bahumono, Amasiri etc.), quickly established the Aro Confederacy as a regional economic power. The Aro Confederacy's strength came from its well-organized network of Aro agents who were dispersed across different communities in the region. These agents acted as intermediaries in trade, diplomacy, and religious matters. They facilitated commerce, resolved disputes, and spread the worship of the Aro deity known as the "Long Juju" oracle."The Opening Up of Nigeria, the Expedition Against the Aros by Richard Caton Woodville II" 1901

The "Long Juju" oracle was the spiritual centerpiece of the Aro Confederacy. It was housed in Arochukwu and considered a potent source of political authority and religious guidance. The Aro people used the oracle to enforce their influence and control over surrounding communities. It also served as a means to administer justice and settle disputes, often attracting pilgrims seeking solutions to their problems.

The Aro Confederacy gained significant economic power through trade and commerce Their economy was primarily based on agriculture, with the cultivation of crops like palm oil, yams, and cassava. They were also involved in trade with neighboring communities and European merchants. They controlled trade routes that passed through their territories, collecting tolls and taxes from traders. The Aro also engaged in the Trans-Atlantic slave trade by capturing and selling slaves to European traders.

Aro activities on the coast helped the growth of city-states in the Niger Delta, and these city states became important centres for the export of palm oil and slaves. Such city-states included Opobo, Bonny, Nembe, Calabar, as well as other slave trading city-states controlled by the Ijaw, Efik, and Igbo. The Aros formed a strong trading network, colonies, and incorporated hundreds of communities that formed into powerful kingdoms. The Ajalli, Arondizuogu, Ndikelionwu, and Igbene Kingdoms were some of the most powerful Aro states in the Confederacy after Arochukwu. Some were founded and named after commanders and chiefs like Izuogu Mgbokpo and Iheme who led Aro/Abam forces to conquer Ikpa Ora and founded Arondizuogu. Later Aro commanders such as Okoro Idozuka (also of Arondizuogu) expanded the state's borders through warfare at the start of the 19th century. Aro migrations also played a large role in the expansion of Ozizza, Afikpo, Amasiri, Izombe, and many other city-states. For example, Aro soldiers founded at least three villages in Ozizza. The Aro Confederacy's power, however, derived mostly from its economic and religious position. With European colonists on their way at the end of the 19th century, things changed.Burning of Arochukwu 1901

During the 1890s, the Royal Niger Company of Britain bore friction with the Aros because of their economic dominance. The Aro resisted British penetration in the hinterland because their economic and religious influence was being threatened. The Aro and their allies launched offensives against British allies in Igboland and Ibibioland. After failed negotiations, the British attempted to conquer the Aro Confederacy in 1899. By 1901, the tensions were especially intensified when British prepared for the Aro Expedition. The invasion of Obegu (in Igboland) was the last major Aro offensive before the start of the Anglo-Aro War. In November 1901, the British launched the Aro Expedition and after strong Aro resistance, Arochukwu was captured on December 28, 1901. By early 1902, the war was over, and the Aro Confederacy collapsed. Contrary to the belief that the Ibini Ukpabi was destroyed, the shrine still exists, and is intact in Arochukwu and serves mainly as a tourist site.

Michael Babatunde Olatunji (April 7, 1927 – April 6, 2003) was a Nigerian drummer, educator, social activist, and recording artist.

He was born in the village of Ajido in southwestern Nigeria. A member of the Ogu people, he was introduced to traditional African music at an early age. His name, Bàbátúndé, means ‘father has returned’, because he was born two months after his father, Zannu died, and he was considered to be a reincarnation. His father was a local fisherman who was about to rise to the rank of chieftain, and his mother was a potter who was a member of the Ogu people. He grew up speaking the Gun (Ogu/Egun) and Yoruba languages. He was groomed to take the position of chief.

When he was 12, he realized that he did not want to become a chieftain. He read in Reader’s Digest magazine about the Rotary International Foundation’s scholarship program and applied for it. His application was successful and he went to the US in 1950.

He received a Rotary scholarship in 1950 and was educated at Morehouse College. He was a good friend of Glee Club director Dr. Wendell P. Whalum and collaborated with him on a staple of the choir’s repertoire, “Betelehemu”. After graduating from Morehouse, he went on to New York University to study public administration. He started a small percussion group to earn money on the side while he continued his studies.

He composed music for the Broadway theatrical and the 1961 Hollywood film productions of Raisin in the Sun. He assisted Bill Lee with the music for She’s Gotta Have It.

He was known for making an impassioned speech for social justice before performing in front of a live audience. His progressive political beliefs are outlined in The Beat of My Drum: An Autobiography. He toured the South with Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and joined King in the March on Washington.

He performed before the UN General Assembly. He was one of the first outside performers to perform in Prague. On July 21, 1979, he appeared at the Amandla Festival. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence

INSPECTOR WAZIRI LEADS THE INVESTIGATION

A Nigerian film about a difficult period to see if you have not already. It is October 1. The movie came out in 2014. However, the cinematographic work remains relevant today.

The story takes place a few days before Nigeria's Independence Day in 1960. This is where the title of the film comes from. Inspector Danladi Waziri (Sadiq Daba) investigates a series of rapes and murders of women west of the country, a small town called Akote, in Igbo region.

The director of this psychological movie, Kunle Afolayan, leads the historical and sociological plot masterfully. Danladi Waziri is an austere man, originally from the North. His appearance is very different from his compatriots in the West. Rather slender with a darker complexion, he has the withdrawn look of the men of the desert, of a Sahelian. He belongs to the Hausa people.

He is leading an investigation into a serial killer. It is the early 60s and almost no one knows what DNA means, including the inspector. He will investigate with the means at hand. Analysis of the crime scene, manipulation of the victims' bodies, the marks on the strangled women. They are virgin teenagers surprised in the darkness of a forest. Gradually, inspector Waziri will understand that he is after a criminal who knows the terrain and therefore a native of the country. However, local police categorically refuse to accept this hypothesis. They are convinced that no man from Akote can commit such atrocities. It is definitely someone from elsewhere. The man from the North is alone against everyone.

The local chief has a soothsayer who is worried about the murders in the area. The traditional priest tells his visitors that the killings will continue until the murderer is satisfied. Nevertheless, the inspector is unable to question the local soothsayer about his premonitory remarks. The police fear that the witch doctor will cast a bad spell on them if they dare to take him to the police station. Consequently, Waziri swims in a total enigma.

Yet this matter must be resolved before the handover of power from Britain to Nigeria. Inspector Waziri superior, a British man, plans to pack up and close the case once Nigeria is independent.

October 1 is much more than an African thriller. There is palpable ethnic tension, particularly when Waziri arrests a suspect like himself from the North. The local population wants to take justice into their own hands. The angry crowd gathers in front of the poor man's prison. Waziri knows he is innocent given the clues he has. However, the locals do not trust the investigator. They want to punish the suspect themselves because they are sure he is guilty.

We must add the difficult relations that the police officer maintains with the British colonizers. Their condescension and arrogance force the inspector to suffer frequent humiliations. His superior, a young man, insists on calling him “Dany Boy,” even though Waziri is his father’s age. However, Africa of the 60s is committed to respecting elders. It is inconceivable to treat a middle-aged African with no respect.

The reconstruction of the feverish atmosphere before independence is a success. In this film, there is a need to show young Africans what life was like during colonization.

All the actors played their respective roles with conviction. We come away won over by the quality of the dramatic acting. A film to see and appreciate.

Hardship: Why Igbo shunned nationwide protest — Ukwu, Ameh, Igbo Elders

It is no longer news that Igbo, especially in the five Southeast states, did not participate in the End Bad Governance protest that started in other parts of the country on August 1. However, why the Igbo shunned the protest and the implications for the country are raising issues in the polity. Nwaiwu, It is no longer news that Igbo, especially in the five Southeast states, did not participate in the End Bad Governance protest that started in other parts of the country on August 1. However, why the Igbo shunned the protest and the implications for the country are raising issues in the polity. Across other parts of the country, angry protesters stormed the streets and for more than five days vented their spleen against what they described as bad Governance, hunger and hardship in the country. The protest became riotous in the North as hoodlums looted shops, and business centres among others. Many states declared curfews to contain the mayhem. But there was pin-drop silence in the South-East leading many to ask if the zone and Igbo are insulated from the prevailing economic downturn in the country. Ameh fingers inequity, injusticeSpeaking on the issue, Chief Peter Ameh, former Presidential candidate and national secretary of the Coalition of United Political Parties, CUPP, said the “absence of equity, justice and fairness is the reason for the political apathy by Igbo in the Nigerian project. ”According to him, “constant and unjust scapegoating of the Igbo ethnic group in Nigeria is the major reason why Igbo abstained from the nationwide protests.” He continued: “Failure to implement General Yakubu Gowon’s Reconstruction, Reconciliation and Rehabilitation programme is a catalyst for growing lack of commitment by all persons of Igbo extraction within and outside Nigeria in many programmes of the government. ”Chief Ameh also attributed Igbo boycott of the protest to “marginalisation of Igbo in strategic economic and administrative positions under the APC governments, and acts of tribal exclusion mixed with political bigotry.” He continued: “The main reason why the entire Southeast geopolitical zone of Nigeria was unanimous in their decision not to participate in the ongoing #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protest across the country is primarily as a result of the easy targeting of lives and property of Igbo whenever there is an uprising or protests in Nigeria.“ Being the only tribe in Nigeria that could be found and visibly seen in the remotest parts of the country, Igbo are always at the receiving end of the consequences of any activity carried out either by the Nigerian government or the public.

Why does Harry want to jump the queue by having his appeal heard PDQ? by u/Mickleborough

Why does Harry want to jump the queue by having his appeal heard PDQ*? A recent post has advised that Harry wants to have his appeal heard sooner rather than later - by the end of July, in fact: around 7 weeks: this is the Telegraph article archived / unarchived to which that post also refers.Apart from the fact that the legal process doesn’t really move that quickly unless it has to, the article contains a couple of interesting nuggets:Nugget 1https://ift.tt/JiySlQk does ‘the approach other countries take to his security’ mean precisely? Coupled with the next paragraph - ‘With the Sussexes understood to be planning multiple overseas tours in the coming months’ - the inference is that the Sussexes would go on many more faux royal tours, if only their security were covered. They were invited to Nigeria by General Christopher Musa, Nigeria‘s chief of defence, so presumably the government looked after their security. But where there’s no formal invitation - say dropping into Ghana because Meghan’s discovered that she’s also 43% Ghanaian; popping to Vancouver to check the progress for the 2025 Invictus Games; paying an uncalled-for visit to Washington DC (a potential venue for the 2027 Invictus Games) - well, travelling’s so dangerous for the Sussexes, isn’t it?And maybe if - miracle of miracles - his security’s reinstated, heads of state might even agree to meet him Harry and his badly dressed wife. Take that, First Lady of Nigeria!Nugget 2https://preview.redd.it/eky7rzqjc65d1.png?width=1389&format=png&auto=webp&s=6c86c029941d821c066c8a6099513a545c9accb0(‘He’ being Lord Justice Bean, permitted the appeal on some grounds.)I’m not sure I understand this paragraph - I blame the sugary Telegraph journalist Victoria Ward‘s abilities - but it seems to read as follows:At the end of the day, Raven’s main concern was - correctly - ‘the potential impact of a successful attack on the Duke’. As such, their motives were appropriate and therefore ‘there was “no prospect” of the [original] judge’s findings being disturbed on appeal’. In other words - Ravec’s decision can’t be faulted. If so - why bother with the appeal?* Pretty Damn Quick post link: https://ift.tt/4rRiyqo author: Mickleborough submitted: June 07, 2024 at 06:22PM via SaintMeghanMarkle on Reddit disclaimer: all views + opinions expressed by the author of this post, as well as any comments and reblogs, are solely the author's own; they do not necessarily reflect the views of the administrator of this Tumblr blog.

Darnella Frazier Still 'Trying To Heal' In Wake Of George Floyd's Death

In a reflective post shared on the one-year anniversary of George Floyd's murder, Darnella Frazier, the teen who filmed his fatal arrest, said that her life has been changed forever. “It’s a little easier now, but I’m not who I used to be. A part of my childhood was taken from me," Frazier wrote in a Facebook post. "Having to up and leave because my home was no longer safe, waking up to reporters at my door, closing my eyes at night only to see a man who is brown like me, lifeless on the ground.” While many have dubbed her a hero for capturing the video, which played a key role in the conviction of Derek Chauvin, Frazier says that “behind the publicity, I’m a girl trying to heal from something I am reminded of every day.”

Porsha Williams Shares Elaborate Wedding Plans

Williams announced her engagement to Guobadia earlier this month.

Vivica Fox Says Money Issues Contributed To Her Divorce

Actress Vivica A. Fox says that her short-lived marriage to Christopher Harvest ended in 2002 because she did not wish to be the "breadwinner" in the relationship. “He didn’t go out and then pursue things with the same drive that I had for my career,” Fox said in an interview with Vlad TV. “You know, a woman doesn’t like paying all the bills all the time. I can only ask for help so many times before I had to come to the conclusion that I didn’t want to be the breadwinner in this family. My mother didn’t raise me to take care of a man. And that was the deciding factor.”

Roxane Gay Launches Publishing Imprint
