@RezaNasri1 "What happened before? And what happened after?" Far too many questions for the American mind to handle. Causes discomfort in a brain soaked in beer and perforated by U.S. propaganda. Explaining critical thinking to Americans is like explaining morals to zionists--it's hopeless

A tip for the American people: Whenever your politicians invoke a grievance against Iran - for example, "Iran seized our embassy", "Iran attacked our troops in Iraq" - just ask two simple questions: What happened before? And what happened after? Ask what happened before, and you get historical context. Those Iranian students didn't storm your embassy out of gratuitous hostility. They stormed it because two decades earlier, your government ran a coup from that same building to destroy their democracy and install a brutal monarchy in its place. Ask what happened after, and you'll find that America took its revenge many times over, even when the matter had been formally settled. The hostage crisis was resolved by the 1981 Algiers Accords. Yet your government proceeded to arm Saddam Hussein to invade Iran, then looked the other way while he gassed Iranian soldiers and civilians for eight years straight. Do this for every allegation on the list. You'll find that none happened in a vacuum, and all were repaid in Iranian blood well beyond any proportion. Then ask yourself a third question: why are you never told the full story? Because unresolved grievances are useful. They justify permanent hostility. And if you look carefully at who works hardest to keep them alive - who funds the think tanks, fills the panels, writes the op-eds - you'll find they are largely not acting in America's interest at all. They are mostly agents and apologists of Israel with a vested interest in ensuring that tensions never truly subside, regardless of the consequences of war.

78 years ago, 800,000 Palestinians were expelled from their homes. Britain made it possible. Today, Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Britain made it possible. 78 years of the Nakba - and 78 years of British complicity in crimes against the Palestinian people.

AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY
AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY@AfricanArchives·
Mahatma Gandhi was an anti-Black racist, who advocated a three-tiered apartheid in South Africa. While living in South Africa, Mahatma Gandhi described black Africans as “savage,” “raw” and living a life of indolence and nakedness. He routinely expressed "disdain for Africans," and he also campaigned relentlessly to prove to the British rulers that the Indian community in South Africa was superior to native black Africans. One of the first battles Gandhi fought after coming to South Africa was over the separate entrances for whites and blacks at the Durban post office. Gandhi obiected that Indians were "classed with the natives of South Africa," who he called the kaffirs, and demanded a separate entrance for Indians. In a petition letter in 1895, Gandhi also expressed concern that a lower legal standing for Indians would result in degenerating "so much so that from their civilised habits, they would be degraded to the habits of the aboriginal Natives, and a generation hence, between the progeny of the Indians and the Natives, there will be very little difference in habits, and customs and thought."

@SahelPaleTales @JackPosobiec The Polish soldiers got over there and realized they sympathized with the cause so they defected and fought with the revolutionaries.

They teach you about how much evil Hitler was in the 20th century while leaving out how Germany wiped out more than 80% of Namibians before even WWI Germany only officially recognized it as a genocide in 2021, more than a century later, with no reparations and re-education

Global powers do not care about democracy in Africa. They care about influence, minerals and strategic control.

“21 Enugu coal miners lay dead after British forces opened fire on peaceful protesters”, an incident that shook West Africa and stunned Nigeria, becoming a political turning point that inspired renewed nationalist agitation. It gave Nnamdi Azikiwe momentum to expand the Zikist movement across the South East and beyond in the push for independence. As Prof. P.L.O Lumumba notes, “Nigeria’s independence struggle was anchored on the 1949 Enugu massacre.” 🎥: @ProfPLOLumumba

This photo was taken in the 1980's. It is a photo of Dolapo Ashiru, Chief MKO Abiola and world known play-boy billionaire arms-dealer Adnan Khashoggi. Dolapo Ashiru, a Los Angeles based investment banker with lot of "friends in high places." I think MKO is not what they portray him to be. Source: ALT

Obasanjo 24hours after ikeja bombblast You people in Apc just hate anything called Compassion and Good governance that’s why you supported a demonic idiotic devil ruling this country
Babanla@biolakazeem

This approach is why people think the President is some Messiah. We have councillors,SOA members,LG Chairmen,HOR,Senator & Governors who directly engage with & represent their people.Where's the insight in a President going around to "listen to the people's problems?"

France alone has murdered over 22 African presidents since 1962. Colonialism never ended, it rebranded.
