GUN VIOLENCE IN AMERICA: FOR WHO THE BELL TOLLS NEXT.

Just five people shy of Sandy Hook elementary school mass shooting incident that claimed 26 lives, the Uvalde Texas Robb elementary school mass shooting at 21 victims, now ranks among the highest grossing gun carnage in America. It is sad that such frequent blood spilling has tragically become part of our culture as a society. May the souls of the killed now rest.

25th AMENDMENT: ITS NOW ALL CRICKET.

Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi once questioned former President Donald John Trump's fitness to remain in office due to what she claimed was his declining mental capacity. Does anyone know what Madam Speaker presently thinks about the incontrovertible case which America is now saddled with? Just curious!

WHO WILL REBUILD UKRAINE?

The West should convert frozen Russian assets, both state's and oligarchs' owned, into a full seizure and set them aside for the future rebuilding of Ukraine. Like the Marshal Plan, call it the Putin Plan.

A HERO IS BORN.

I am staying put. I will not run away and abandon my people. The fight is here in Ukraine. What I need are weapons and ammunitions, not a ride out of town like former Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani - President Volodymyr Zelensky.

IT IS WHAT IT IS.

"There is too much hate in America because there is too much anger in America." - Trevor Noah.

WORD!

A life without challenges is not a life lived at all. A life lived is a life that has problems, confronts problems, solves problems and then learns from problems. - Tunde Fashola.

NOW, YOU KNOW.

When fishing for love, bait with your heart and not your brain, because you cannot rationalize love. - Mark Twain.

JUST THE FACT.

In our country, you can shoot and kill a nigger, but you better not hurt a gay person’s feelings - Dave Chappelle

WORDS ON MARBLE.

MAGA LIVES ON: NO RETREAT, NO SURRENDER!

TWITTER IS BORING WITHOUT HIS TWEETS. #RestorePresidentTrump'sTwitterHandle.


WORD.

"If you cannot speak the truth when it matters, then nothing else you says matters.” - Tucker Carlson.

#MeToo MOVEMENT: A BAD NEWS GONE CRAZY.

"To all the women who testified, we may have different truth, but I have a great remorse for all of you. I have great remorse for all of the men and women going through this crisis right now in our country. You know, the movement started basically with me, and I think what happened, you know, I was the first example, and now there are thousands of men who are being accused and a regeneration of things that I think none of us understood. I’m not going to say these aren’t great people. I had wonderful times with these people. I’m just genuinely confused. Men are confused about this issue. We are going through this #MeToo movement crisis right now in this country." - Harvey Weinstein.


RON DELLUMS: UNAPOLOGETICALLY RADICAL.

"If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical.” - Ron Vernie Dellums.


WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE - STEVE JOBS

“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. Memories precipitated by love is the only true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. The most expensive bed in the world is the sick bed. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – Life. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” - SJ

EVIL CANNOT BE TRULY DESTROYED.

"The threat of evil is ever present. We can contain it as long as we stay vigilant, but it can never truly be destroyed. - Lorraine Warren (Annabelle, the movie)


ONLY THE POOR WISH THEY HAD STUFF?

“I’m not that interested in material things. As long as I find a good bed that I can sleep in, that’s enough.” - Nicolas Berggruem, the homeless billionaire.

GERMAN WINGS PLANE DELIBERATELY CRASHED, NOT YOUR USUAL SUSPECT?

Icheoku says unfortunately for all those armed to the kilt and ready to go hunt them down, the man who brought down the German airline, Germanwings, was one of them and not the usual Arab or Muslim looking terrorist bomber. So query, what does the world now do faced with an enemy or threat which defiles all known profile of those usually associated with such dastardly acts of terror? An astonished and askance world woke up days later following the plane crash, to learn that the Germanwings airline crash was not an accident afterall; but was a deliberate act of sabotage by the very same person charged with its legal custody and who was duty-bound to safely fly those passengers therein boarded to their destination and this person is White. A case of a surgeon deliberately killing his patient on an operating room, one would say? Possessed by whatever demonic spirit that was afflicting him, co-pilot Andreas Lubitz, intentionally plunged the airplane he was flying unto the mountain-side, killing everyone on board and completely obliterating the Airbus 320 jet plane. 

Icheoku says luckily for all those Arabs and Arab-looking pilots in the employ of Germanwings, Andreas Lubitz is as white as it comes and so they were spared from assured profiling and reiteratory attacks. It shows that there are bad people among every race and color; and that one does not necessarily have to be an Arab or a Muslim to be a terrorist or be possessed of a heart to do evil. But whether Andreas Lubitz is even an ISIS sympathizer or an Islamic convert, no one knows nor will ever know. But funny enough, his actions are now being explained away as caused by possible reason of insanity and a troubled mind? Icheoku queries, if so, why did they not fish him out before he committed such heinous murder of innocent people who placed their lives on his duty of care to safely fly them to their destination. Icheoku however disagree with all those trying to explain away what this white terrorist pilot did as a result of mental and psychological problem, since they do not give such same break and excuse when Arabs or Muslims are involved; but normally brand them terrorists and react accordingly. 

Icheoku insist that it should not only be when white people are involved in acts of terror, that excuses of mental incapacity are invoked. A terrorist is a terrorist regardless of shade of skin color as Adolf Hitler was a terrorist; Timothy McVeigh was a terrorist; Jeffrey Dhumer was a terrorist and a host of other white skinned bad people who terrorized their victims. So Icheoku calls on the West to accept that terrorism is not color blind or religion specific and that there are evil people among every race and religion. So these horrible people should be specifically isolated, identified and destroyed; instead of railroading an entire people or religion as bad while giving some break to others. Thus, the people who are usually marked out, would understand that they are not being particularly targeted for who and what they are; but that an honest attempt is being made to identify and isolate the bad eggs among them. Icheoku is emphatic that Andreas Lubitz is a terrorist pilot, all the excuses of mental and psychological illness being bandied around, notwithstanding. 

But hey, what happened has happened; as anything now would be merely Monday-night quarter-backing. But going forward, Icheoku says the designers of passenger airplanes, might consider putting a urinary right inside the cockpit or an access door inside the cockpit that will not warrant a pilot or co-pilot having to leave the cockpit leading to the time and opportunity which availed this co-pilot to intentionally wreck this havoc. Admitted that what is purposed to happen would always find a way of happening, but at least an added overlay of precaution could at least stall or forestall such evil from ever coming to fruition. What an unfortunate terrorist act this was as those passengers were terrorized by the pilot to fear for their lives as the plane plummeted to the mountain side and their fear turned into an irremediable  nightmare. Icheoku says rest in peace Germanwings Flight 9525 passengers and crew, who were enroute from Barcelona to Dusseldorf when their evil terrorist pilot crashed them unto the French Alps.
