  • Blackknowledge you are full of shit buddy u even smell thru my computer. I don't need no history lessons from u. Look at the facts on the ground today. Africa is torn by human conditions created by its leaders. This mentality that suggests that if u blame the west for your problems you will solve them is deterent to the to the truth. Humans have always enslaved, fought wars, colonized and controlled others with less power, but humans can also build back what is lost. Africa needs to move 4ward.

  • Like Saddam Hussain when dancing with the Devils you never know when they will turn on you, all these dictators were finances by European powers yet were betrayed.

    Africas mineral wealth will always make it a target. Until it ppl worldwide stand up. I agree with you stop talking but 1 day shut up pick up that weapon.

    I understand why Europeans have weapons that size the elite know that if they should fall from this grace the sins of the father will fall on the sons.

  • Japan has always been n always will the in the back pocket of western powers bcuz while they pull the strings their leader pepetuate close society strictness. Mao got his 1 child policy program from plan parenting organization and the UN.Mao was financed by European powers. Every African leader was funded financialy military n otherwise by western powers like wise in south east Asia n South America. Ebola, AIDS manufactured by European powers using the UN to infect the populus

  • TheJapanese war machine thruout WW2 murdered millions in asia stole masses amount of religous artifacts robbed treasuries etc. Yet after WW2 only 1 man was tried for the war crimes Japan had done . Nuremburg trial convicted the political wing nazi Germany. Japan 1 man took the blame. The 1st atomic bomb on a people wasn't Japan it was the Small boy a small nuclear test on black american soldiers. Since that time Japan was able to remain virtualy untouched by western hand while Germany was split

  • Fighter Jets, tanks etc. At a period in time when the rest of Asia was more like a 3rd world country. Under Tsar Nick Japan defeated Russia for Manchuria halting a Russian Naval port in the Pacific which would challenge British colonies. B4 the attack on Pearl harbour Austrailian radar detected a large fleet of Japan Navy n warned the American which they ignored. Yet conveniently their strongest ships were on training excercise when they were said, it was a European war

  • B4 you run ur moth

    Know Japanese History, Japan have no mineral importance to the European society, Japan saw wht England had done to China. Japan had backroom dealing with European establishment mainly against Russia. Russia had no Pacific port for a Navy, they needed Manchuria. Japan was funded in all aspect of military n otherwise by America n England for the sole purpose of repelling Russia. Japan has no natural resources yet massed an army to equal America n Britain air craft carriers

  • Africom is the enemy of Somalia and all the screwed up countries like zimbabwe. Please give me a f#¤king break. Africa's dictators are the enemy of Africans. Africans need to stop playing the blame game and start thinking economical empowerment, health and security. Japan was torn down but now boast the 2nd largest economy in the world. Ideological bullshit and dogmatic beliefs are slowing down African progress. Wake up and stop blaming everything on somebody else.
