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.

OUR SHARED HUMANITY.

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

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.

'NEVER AGAIN' IS NOT JEWISH PEOPLE'S EXCLUSIVE PRESERVE: UKRAINIAN LIVES MATTER.

ICHEOKU says Russia has already escalated the war in Ukraine far beyond anyone had anticipated and any continuing excuse by the West not to assist Ukraine because such would provoke Russia into escalating the war is nothing but pure bombast. Russia is callously and with deprave heart bombarding Ukraine with missiles, rockets and mother of all bombs (MOAB) which is digging sixty feet wide by twenty feet deep craters, such that even hospitals, maternity wards and shopping centers are now fair games for targeting by the Russian murderous invaders. 

Children, aged parents, women and even pregnant women, as well as other innocent civilians are being killed indiscriminately by Russians explosives. Schools and residential places are also being targeted for complete destruction. This begs the question what else needs to happen to Ukrainians and in their own country, before the world will go to the help of Ukrainians or haven't they suffered enough already for just desiring freedom and courageously sacrificing so much to achieve it.  Does the West not have certain redlines which cover the rule of engagement in a war, crossing of which they cannot tolerate from Russia. 

When again has it become an acceptable new normal for pregnant women in labor to be targeted in a war? Is it now okay in war to drop massive bombs at hospitals and maternity and also shell residential apartment buildings with mortars? Is the West waiting for Putin to first kill six million Ukrainians before they can firm their resolve and confront Russia to stop them from committing further atrocities on Ukrainians. When the West resolved NEVER AGAIN following holocaust, was it not as it appertains to every man's inhumanity to man as a whole; or is it only Jewish people that were insured by it? If Ukrainians are not Jews, at least their duly elected president is a Jew.

Ukrainian Lives Matter and such a declaration of NEVER AGAIN should be of uniform application throughout humanity and should cover any part of humanity that is facing a threat of extinction in the hand of another. The West knew that the odds were stacked against Ukraine when they goaded them into challenging Russia, and even when Ukraine still had a series of off ramp opportunities to climb down and avoid a direct war with Russia, the West continued talking as if they would help Ukraine in the fight against Russia. 

They promised Ukraine help but did not include the full range of help such as ballistic missiles and jet fighters and you ask yourself how did anyone expect Ukraine to defend themselves from an incoming missile when they have no anti missile batteries? How can Ukraine defend itself from prowling Russian fighter jets when they have no fighter jets of their own to engage the Russians in aerial fight? Where are the defensive weapons promised and why are they not defending Ukraine from Russian bombardments?

Now the West is pussyfooting about supplying Ukraine with Poland's donated MIG fighter jets, begging the question, is anyone even sure that NATO will hold in the event Putin decides to complete his military objective reclaiming former Soviet countries. It is time the West firmed their backbone and in an unmistakable language communicated to Russia that enough is enough. If it leads to a third world war, so be it and let those who survive the war repopulate and rebuild the world. Adolf Hitler started the same way and the West should not wait to later apologize to future Ukrainians for not coming to the present generation's aid when it mattered most.

This hesitance or rather outright refusal to assist Ukraine in the largely unbalanced war with Russia needs to end. Vladimir Putin should not be allowed to hold the West hostage to his nuclear threat. If the Kremlin goblin succeeds in having his way with Ukraine, it will be an unforgivable mistake which the West intentionally made and Ukraine will never forgive them for abandoning them in the hour of greatest need. If it was Israel that Putin invaded and bombarding as he is currently doing to Ukraine, will there be any discussion of a qualifying NATO membership? 

The West should send anything and everything to Ukraine now including boots on the ground, fighter jets, ballistic missiles and even tactical nuclear bombs. Anything that will stop the unfolding madness in Ukraine and help Putin undergo an epiphany should be done without any further delay, debate or rationalization. It is better to end the Ukraine war now with whatever military supplies possible, than to allow it to linger on, regardless of whatever military and intelligence gathering benefits the West might be mining from the war. Ukraine is being destroyed and Ukrainian people are dying, suffering and being displaced. End the war now, stop Putin now!
