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

DO YOU?.

“What you believe in can only be defined by what you’re willing to risk for it." - Stuart Scheller.

HEDGE YOUR CRISIS.

Never get in bed with a woman whose problems are worse than yours. - Chicago PD.

PROBLEM SOLVED.

OUR SHARED HUMANITY.

Empathy is at the heart of who we are as human beings. - Cardinal Matthew Kukah.

WORDS ON MARBLE.

"Birth is agony. Life is hard. Death is cruel." - Japanese pithy.

REPENT OR PERISH - POPE.

Homosexuality is a sin. It is not ordained by God, therefore same sex marriage cannot be blessed by the church - Pope Francis.

CANCEL CULTURE IS CORROSIVE.

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.

TERROR STRIKES TEXAS, WHEN THE TWO SEAS ARE NOT ENOUGH?

Icheoku says the sea to the shinning sea did not once again provide buffer to America as two terrorists struck in Texas, although unsuccessfully. But unfortunately for both terrorists, they messed with a wrong state and only if they had heard the phrase 'don't mess with Texan.' Both munchkins were dispatched on a speedy express to go meet with their seventy virgins by a watchful marksman and for this bravery, the untold terror they had planned was nipped in the bud, with them being the only casualty of the attack. It appears that both seas protects only against terror from overseas but never home-grown domestic terrorism or one carried out internally such as Osama Bin Laden's World Trades Center's 9/11 attack, Timothy McVeigh's Oklahoma City bombing as well as this Garland's free speech event attack. However, Icheoku says thank you officer for saving the day and again for denying these animals another recruiting propaganda tool. Imagine what would have happened had they succeeded in muzzling free speech right inside here in America, the bastion of free speech? Luckily they were no match to the skills of the highly trained traffic officer who put a stop to their maniacal escapade. 

Terrorists Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi (first and second respectively pictured below) tried storming a free speech event organized by Pam Geller, featuring Islamic Prophet Mohammed cartoons, inside Curtis Culwell Center in Garland Texas, a suburb of Dallas. They were dressed in armored, armed with assault rifles and explosives but were stopped cold from reaching their target by an eagle-eyed off duty officer moonlighting as a guard. There is no authoritative information however whether their main target was the wider audience or a Dutch politician, Geert Wilders, already on Al Queida most wanted list of infidels who was billed to speak at the event. But thankfully, it ended well as the two anarchists became the only victims of their own device. Icheoku says how does anyone protect against an enemy within their midst but through prayers and eternal vigilance. 

With the terror in Texas, vigilance now becomes more heightened since many of these terrorists are already here, simply laying low and waiting for the appropriate time to crawl out of their terror-planning holes to cause mayhem. Icheoku says to these fanatics, why not let your prophet Mohammed fight his own battles, if he cares; afterall Jesus Christ as well as Buddha and other gods and goddesses of African traditional religions are always written about all the time without such incendiary reaction from their faithfuls. So why must it be only Muslims that must kill and maim people just because their prophet was talked about? Icheoku says these people need to wake up and realize that this is now twenty first century and not the last millennium or those ancient times when fables are told to timid souls, who believing same, go about fighting stupid wars based on faith. Icheoku borrowing Rodney King's words, says, please can we all just get along, religion or no religion!
Nadir Soofi
