PULL OUT OF ICC AND GIVE RISE TO HITLERS;

 


Urged on by jealous neighbors keen to see it fail, Kenya hits the path to isolation and eventual failure this week with a series of events that begun yesterday with the pronouncement by the Jubilee lawmakers, waxing lyrical, that the ICC is a “camouflage to recolonise Africa” and that severing links with the Rome statute will herald an “African enduring”.

Hitler is Always right! Hitler is Always right! Hitler is Always right!


 Jubilee plans to move a motion to recall Parliament on Thursday so that the legislatures can debate and approve Kenya’s withdrawal from the ICC.



 The more educated elites had left parliament and sort better jobs as governors and senators leaving Parliament with less educated less experienced and very political majority with no interest of Kenya at hand.There myopic decision will leave Kenya in the same league with Syria, Sudan, Iran, North Korea leading to isolation and economic stagnation. Hard times lie ahead.We don't seek political justice from Hague we seek justice for the a thousand plus victims of the 2007/08 Post Election Violence.Humanity is a virtue.Must we demand the so called government to be human on us.

Going to the Coast in stark contravention of the law and dishing out land title deeds, He is buying off unquestioned support from the citizenry. By engineering aesthetic popularity through ‘rewarding’ citizens with what is basically their rights, there is a big Third Reich propaganda going on.

 The end result? holocaust! We have begun seeing the holocaust of ideas, where the best minds in academia, the pious spirits in christianity and islam, the most inquisitive in the media; all have taken to the deafening conspiracy of silence.

As for I a citizen of Kenya I urge you never to support any decision to pull out of Rome statute.Where is the report on Tom Mboya's murder,Where is the report on Argwing's Kodhek Funeral incident where dozens were shot by presidential guards?Did Ouko die for free,JM Kariuki?Odhiambo Mbai?

But Hitler was always right,But Hitler was the mistake Germany made.Lets look beyond our nose during these hard times as we drink milkless tea  and wait for 'laptops'...NO PULLING KENYA OUT OF ICC.

THE JUBILEE IS ITS OWN ENEMY TO ITS MANIFESTO'S IMPLEMETATION....

The fastest way of uniting the country is separating The Jubilee party and The government.But as long as they still remain the same then "choices will still have more consequences".... The regions presumed to be hostile to the government might as well be hostile to the Jubilee party except the Governments hasn't clearly spelt out whether we are now being ruled by Jubilee manifesto or the 2010 Constitution.

One  does not become good because another is bad,goodness is an individual virtue,but remember your actions define what the public see in you.It is manifest nonsense and 'rascal nulscap'  to blame the opposition for a the lag in implementation of your manifesto.I have not seen His Exellency Prime Minister tell the Cord fraternity to stand on roads so that the government may not build or reconstruct them.The Prime Minister or CORD family does not stand in the way of Jubilee implementing its manifesto."The enemy to your goals are those you set for yourself".

It is natural of homo sapien species to always look for who or what to blame when its cornered,but we always believe we choose the greatest minds from the sapiens sapiens to hold the house.Its in the wisdom of ruling that we separate Neanderthals from Sapiens.

The government or let me call it 'Jubilee confusion' must not waste our time and money to convince the other legitimate 50% who voted to the contrary that at the helm of dragging the country lies the Prime Minister.Instead of calling press conferences with newly elected MP's who haven't even had time to cram the Legislative laws to attack the believes of the 50% ,why don't they talk of what they have done to the country.If you are the President you are the President of the whole country not jubilant sycophant of the minority that propelled you to Power.

"Kenya ni Jina Nchi Ni Wewe" such an ironic state of the "spinerdifida" the Jubilee has placed us in.What Leadership wisdom is to be withdrawn from the likes of Daniel Arap Moi apart from means of amassing public  wealth and maintaining an aristocratic dictatorship form of leadership in Kenya?.

We are in a funny country where during election we run for "Tyranny of Numbers",When our Miraa is banned from Europe I might be tempted to ask the government to use its "Tyranny of Numbers" to chew those Miraa and get their profit;that's if they do have the Tyranny of Eaters as well.

ION;Appointing Hon. Zachariah Obado, a PDP governor; to lead Jubilee in penetrating Migori County where I hail from is a misplaced priority and with a mindset of Standard One pupil waiting for 'Lollipop or Laptop' whichever you give them.
In Migori we do not need the government or Jubilee to penetrate us.We want a leadership void of ethnic discrimination.

The "sin" of being a teachers child

The attention over the teacher's strike has been on the teachers and the glue 'armpitted' government that will never fulfill its side of bargain.However,below the plight of teachers lies a huge number of children,the teachers children.The ignored third party affected by the strke.
It was a curios laughter at my younger age  to see teachers run along the road,singing their usual songs for better pay.The predicaments have changed and now as I mature up I ask,Is it a mistake to be a teacher in Kenya?And is it a mistake to be a teacher's child during such like times.
Coming from a family in which I am the first born with two juniors behind me,I tend to assume that at every teacher in Kenya has roughly 3 kids.I put my mathematical ability to test and that multiplied by poor salaried two hundred plus thousand teachers gives a three quarter million children malnourished by the government.
The 1997 deal was signed just when I was beginning my Nursery,my mum said things would be better.Sixteen years later am almost through with my university degree,and I ask where's the change?The question I can't direct to my mum instead I ask the Government,Where is the change?
When the government denies all teachers in Kenya their salary ,they deny the rights of almost one million children ,half of which am sure are either in Secondary or tertiary educational institutions.So Is the government for us or against us?
A teacher's child has the right to enjoy the same privileges that a Member of Parliament's kid enjoys if salaries are harmonised."We are not children of a lesser God" PLO Lumumba.It is actually the teacher's kids who are hustlers and not a spendthrift power thirsty millionaire flying on million dollar tax payed renovated jet to God knows what missions.
When such 'Richlers' not Hustlers go for moon diplomacy I advice them to please ask the spacemen how they pay the salaries of their Public servants.
I stand on the same ground stood by my mother,that of demanding for a better pay.Together with other million kids to say enough is enough.We are tired of living hand to mouth.If the government thinks blackmail and denial of salaries will turn our parents to milking babies licking its feet,then they should know,we are ready for a hunger strike...

In solidarity with our parents until our living standards are uplifted.

(A Must Read): We Know The System Is Broken, Why Aren’t We Fixing It? Or Talking Of Fixing It?

I think we may be seeing the consequence of a deficit in accountability. We are already well past the point at which our shamocracy pushed honesty and prudence out of public office. Now that the thugs and tribalists have taken over, they are systematically deconstructing our national identity and replacing it with ethnicities. This fracturing of identity makes it much harder for the people to mount collective action to punish thieving elites.
One of the primary ways (by no means the only one) the masses can enforce accontability is through elections. But we live in terror of elections. And with good reason. Elections work, when governments are evaluated on their performance, and when citizens watch whether governments keep their promises, and oust those that don’t measure up. Such accountability improves the provision of public goods, boosting incomes and welfare and reinforcing the sense of national belonging.
However, in poor and diverse societies such as ours, electoral competition undisciplined by accountability and enforced rules curtailing scope for cheating as well as constraints on the exercise of power, can be very dangerous indeed. Politicians are evaluated on their propensity for patronage, further polarizing the fractured identities and leading to higher risks of violence.


The lack of accountability and fracturing of the national identity is the road to hell. It is why we are deathly afraid of elections. When accountability for the deaths of 1500 Kenyans is swept under the carpet in the name of a fake reconciliation, when we elect thugs to public office and turn a blind eye to electoral malfeasance in the name of peace, we are just storing up further troubles down the road.
It is also proof positive of the hollowness of our democracy. A free people should have no reason fear electoral contests. And to the extent that we do, we are neither free nor a people.

So what is to be done? The politicians will not fix it. Their unrestrained greed for power and prestige is a big part of the problem. Also, the president and his henchmen do not want to broach the issue for fear of having to acknowledge that their victory is stained. None other than the Deputy President has openly declared that the IEBC, despite its manifold failures, did a “fabulous job.” Presumably he meant in installing the ruling clique’s preferred candidate. In Parliament, a similar reluctance to highlight the problems springs from similar motivations: impugning the integrity of the system impugns the legitimacy of all incumbents. It was telling that when calling for reforms, the opposition CORD alliance threatened to boycott the next General Election. But that’s in five years time! The system needs to be fixed today.
No. We have to look elsewhere. And we have a ready example from our recent past. It was a coalition of civil society, churches, media and disaffected politicians which mobilized the Kenyan people and the international community to stand up to the Moi dictatorship in the 1990s and to demand accountability. This coalition can be re-formed. But for that to happen, we need to shake off the fear and ignorance that seems to infect its parts.
Civil Society must come out from hiding and find the courage to speak out. The media must rediscover its core function of informing the public. The lobotomising of the news must stop and journalists should go back to being newsmen and not performing monkeys. The church (and the mosque) must rediscover their moral centres. And politicians must reacquaint with principle. Most importantly, the silence must stop. If this is done, then the people and the international community will regain their voice, just as they did twenty years ago and force reform on the elite.
But all this takes courage. It takes leadership. So the question is: In a nation where we have turned men into mice, who will bell the cat?

THE BLIND LOYALTY TO TRIBAL DEMIgODS IN MY COUNTRY

It’s clear Kenyans are uncomfortable with laws. Its law that keeps us from returning to the jungle, where the strongest takes what they want. It’s the law that keeps us human, guiding us to realization that there are greater calling and higher satisfactions in life than constantly looking out for our own self-interest.

The moment when the community as a whole claimed for itself the right and responsibility to punish criminals, taking the role away from the injured parties, represent one of the great advances in the history of civilization.
True justice without vengeance. One measure of a civilization’s complexity is the distance between the aggrieved individual and administration of justice. The problem arise, however, when people fear that they cannot depend on society to administer justice, that the courts are slow, corrupt and unreliable or inclined to play favorites or that the law is full of loopholes that let the guilty escape as we always see in Kenya. Then we face the uncomfortable choice between letting a guilty person go free and taking the responsibility for punishment into our hands, with the bitter aftertaste and sense of moral compromise that often entails…This is why ICC is appropriate and if it fails we only condemn Kenya into a paralysis, stagnation or return to the jungle law.

Just imagine where the lie about loyalty to our tribal demigods has brought us to. Successive tribal regimes have dug in a protective system that will every now and then be manipulated by clever cons to their personal interests. That is what Uhuru and Ruto are doing now. Uhuru Kenyatta is so institutionally insulated in an impenetrable tribal human shield.

Kenyans know they are destined for better things and that is why the triumhalistic mentaliy being displayed by some communities is self-defeating. A monkey is monkey because of other monkeys, there cannot be a monkey without other monkeys. We are allowing our souls to be stunted by ignorance.There is no way we can win the war against hate and reviling as long as there are conditions that make people desperate. We cannot be human on our own. We can be human only together. There will never be PEACE without justice and safety only comes when desperation ends. It will end when we have leaders who are willing to take risks not just seeking to satisfy the often extreme feelings of their constituencies as we seeing now in our land. 

This fictional thinking has seized on the fear of freedom, fear of making choices, because the world is too complicated for us. Its hard to understand it. We do not know who to trust, so we are vulnerable to the person who says, “ too many decisions? Let me simply life for you. Make one decision, vote “jubilee” and you will never have to agonize over choosing between the right and wrong again. Uhuru and Ruto will tell you what is right and we will surround you with a supportive officials in the NIS to reassure you that no matter what the misguided souls of other communities may say you are protected and on the right path”

At its worst, this kind of vulnerability gives us an Adolf Hitler, who strode into the moral decay and economic ruin of Germany in the 1930’s and said, “ Follow me, never question me, and I will lead you out of this” We consider ourselves rid of nazism because we abhor its brutality and we did not live in the 1930’s Germany. We forget that Nazism was ultimate product of a philosophy which despised the ‘weak’ and admired the ‘strong’. In essence Nazism was a doctrine that the ‘strong’ shall rule over the ‘weak’ and that the ‘weak’ are contemptible because they are ‘weak’

Reconciliation cannot avoid confrontation. But when we merely seek to gloss over our differences or metaphorically paper over the cracks as we did after the 2007/08 PEV we must not be surprised that in next to no time we are at it again, hammer and tongs, perhaps more violently than before. True reconciliation is based on forgiveness and forgiveness is based on true confession and confession is based on penitence, on contrition on sorrow for what had been done. Equally confession, forgiveness and reconciliation in the lives of nations and communities are not just airy-fairy religious and spiritual matters, nebulous and unrealistic. They are the stuff of practical politics. Superficial reconciliation can only bring superficial healing.

AFRICA AGAINST CANCER

Fruits And Vegetables

The Johns Hopkins Hospital recommends that you increase your intake of fruits and vegetables for cancer prevention and to defend against cancer recurrence. Fruits and vegetables contain phytochemicals that have antioxidant properties. Antioxidants are substances that protect you from free-radical damage. Free radicals are substances that attack your body and cause cellular damage, infection and illness. Fruits and vegetables might help strengthen your body's ability to fight current or future illnesses. Good fruit choices include apples, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, cherries, oranges, lemons, limes and kiwis. Good vegetable choices include cruciferous vegetables, such as cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage and brussels sprouts. These cruciferous vegetables are particularly rich in antioxidant content, according to Johns Hopkins Hospital. Other good vegetable choices include kale, spinach, bell peppers, and Swiss chard.

Whole Grains

Whole grains are also important for cancer prevention and treatment, according to the Johns Hopkins Hospital. Whole grains are grains that have not been processed and stripped of their bran component. Therefore, they are good sources of fiber, which is important for a healthy diet because it helps keep you satiated, helping to prevent weight gain that can increase your risk of cancer. Fiber also helps add bulk to your stool matter and keep your bowel movements regular and healthy. According to the Johns Hopkins Hospital, a high fiber intake might be beneficial because it can alter hormonal actions of breast cancer and other cancers that are hormone-dependent. Johns Hopkins Hospital recommends you consume 25 to 35 g of fiber daily. Whole grains are a good source of fiber, and good choices include oatmeal, brown rice, quinoa, buckwheat, barley, and whole wheat bread.

 

Moderate Fat Consumption

The type of fat you eat might lead to the onset of breast cancer. Johns Hopkins Hospital recommends that you limit your intake of saturated fats, the fats that can increase your cholesterol and put an extra workload on your heart. Saturated fats can be found in foods such as lamb, beef, organ meats, high-fat cheeses, cream, and ice cream. You can replace such foods with leaner fare, including lentils, beans, lean chicken, low-fat dairy and tofu. Fish is also a good food to choose because it contains omega-3 fatty acids. According to Johns Hopkins Hospital, research suggests that omega-3 fats might help prevent the growth of breast cancer tumors. Johns Hopkins suggests you consume fresh fish one to three times per week to help prevent or fight colorectal cancer.

Avoid Alcohol And Caffeine

Avoiding alcohol and caffeine might help fight cancers and their symptoms, including breast cancer and colon cancer. These beverages can be dehydrating and can contribute to cancer symptoms such as diarrhea, constipation, upset stomach and nausea. Consult your doctor if you have any concerns. However, alternative choices that are good for a healthy body include water, natural fruit juices and low-fat milk.
