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.

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

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.

PUTIN THREATENS WORLD PEACE: TO UNLEASH INTERNATIONAL CHAOS.

ICHEOKU says Vladimir Putinya is once again making threats and threatening world peace. Instead of reining in his friend and fellow despot Bashir Assad from using chemical weapons on Syrian citizens, he is busy with issuing threats. Query: does it mean that Vladimir Putin enjoys having those little innocent children of Syria gassed or likes watching them twitch as they trail off to their agonizing painful deaths. Whatever it is, it is not good and it does not look good not after the horrific experience that was the holocaust. 

His latest threat, that there will be “International chaos” should another missile strikes be launched on Syria is not only inflammatory but somewhat encouraging the use of chemical weapons by the Syrian despot Bashir Assad. Why wait to unleash international chaos when he could have preempted it by asking Syria to stop using chemical weapons on her citizens. The missile strikes are predicated on Syria using chemical weapons and so is a  problem with a solution. Prevention is always better than cure, so if Vladimir Putin does not want to see Syria bombed again, he should tell his friend Bashir Assad not to gas those little innocent children of Syria again, problem solved. Except of course, Putin has other scores he wants to settle and is just looking for an excuse to unleash mayhem on the world. It is such an easy problem to solve; but he seems not to get it or rather just does not want to resolve it but to remain a pain in the butt of the West, while making alliances with thuggish rogue leaders. 

What a peaceful place the world would otherwise be if only Russia's Putin would agree to become a player for global good and play by the rule. But no, he is always at the opposite end and sometimes for no germane reason other than just for the heck of it. Anyway, when next Putin allows Bashir Assad to gas his people, the West, as promised, will again respond with missile strikes on Syria and thereafter he can unleash his promised international chaos and let us see how it will end. This is an avoidable problem that has a simple solution, restrain Bashir Assad from his barbaric use of banned chemical weapons on his people; but unfortunately, Putin does not appear or seem interested in peacefully resolving the issue. Rather, he is threatening world peace, forgetting that Russia is also part of the world and will not be immune from whatever he decides to unleash on the world. But hopefully, the world will not have to see whatever he has planned; believing that common sense will eventually prevail over him and Kremlin will do its job of reining in Bashir Assad. What a world fast approaching a destructive confrontation which is otherwise avoidable.
