Afghanistan School in Africa No Forced Conversion

-

Afghanistan had a girls’ institution, the School of Leadership.  After the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, students and staff flew to Rwanda, Africa where they will stay temporarily, according to Shabana Basij-Rashik, one of the school’s co-founders.

Removing a whole school from one country to another demonstrates two things.

l President Biden and Paul Kagame, President of Rwanda have some secret partnership, which made Kagame agree to the school’s relocation. Rwanda depends on the U.S. one way or the another, which cannot be shared with citizens.

l President Biden engineered the move as early as January 20, 2021, the day of his inauguration. Why? Because moving a whole school across territorial borders, involves certain logistics.

Land. America’s interest in Africa is land and its underground resources. Every financial agreement has a collateral. So whatever loan America, China or Europe give Africa, land is the collateral.

There’s no free lunch in America so Biden called in some favours from Kagame. The Afghanistan school  will be a private school, so it will sit on a piece of land and have security, probably funded by the American government. Sourcing this land and support systems must have taken Rwanda months.

The School of Leadership will be on a big piece of land because it will have girls’ dormitories, classrooms, a mosque or place for communal prayers, living quarters for Shabana Basij-Rasikh and her staff, a library, recreational areas, storage, garden for growing tomatoes and greens, receiving dock for trucks and other vehicles delivering food and other supplies, cooking and laundry areas, and other facilities needed to run a private school.

Locals, Rwandans, will work in some areas of the school and that is where the guarantee comes in. Shabana Basiq-Rasikh must declare that African girls and women that will do some jobs in the school, won’t be forced to convert to Islam. It happens all the time in Africa. Conversion leads to slavery.

In South Africa, there’s a financial district in Durban called Grey Street, where street kids are converted to Islam and work for free in shops and homes.

Elections And Political Bullies

-

Forget democracy.   It should be called political bullying. We are watching it in the prelude to the Canadian election on the 19 th of October, 2015.   Americans have also started their political bullying for the looming presidential election next year. So many trees wasted on books about democracy.   Some countries have big budgets for invading other countries ‘ to defend democracy’ but it is seldom practised in campaigning for elections.   Calling opponents names and printing flyers attacking each other is behaviour that will not be tolerated in kindergarten, but it is all legal, in campaigning.   It is irritating and such a let-down to the whole notion of democracy.   Grown-up men and women behaving like Grade One kids. It is also misleading because many voters believe it is real hatred.   Don’t let that fool you.   These politicians play golf together, attend the same dinner parties, eat and drink at the same social events, share jokes and cut deals in parliament.   They

Comfort Food As Regret Food

-

Chicken curry. Comfort food is good for the soul, which usually bleeds in winter from icy roads, bad drivers that want to annihilate pedestrians, frozen fingers and toes that take a sabbatical.   What happened to my toes?   I thought I was wearing special socks for boots? We therefore have a right to comfort food which throws doctors’ orders out of the window and has no loyalty to calories.   No calculator on the table, thanks very much.   Piece of bread 5 calories, half a banana 10 calories, sugar-free cheesecake 2,000 calories.   Ah! Ah!  We only live once. Naw!   Comfort food is old school food with its compulsory second helping.   It involves licking fingers and giving a big sigh, about the good life, which is shelter, food, love and debt.   The problem is the zip.   The jeans remind you that comfort food can also be called you will regret food .   Home sweet home is even sweeter in winter after surviving blowing snow and bumper to bumper traffic. What is more welcoming th

No Air Miles

I don’t have Air Miles.   I’m considering putting that on a T-Shirt because I cannot go to the drugstore (chemist) or coffee shop without the cashier asking me if I have air miles. We waited for about two minutes the other day, while this guy looked for his Air Miles card in his overweight wallet.   For what?   For a few points. I don’t have air miles because Mathematics is a foreign language.   I was never good in numbers. That is why I squashed the idea of being an investment banker very early in life.   I understand you can invest in cornfields before the soil is turned up or pork bellies even before a baby pig is born. That is how I view air miles, investing in tomorrow or the unknown.   I’m the dumb one.   Some people understand this air miles’ thing so well, I overheard one customer saying: I can even convert my points into cash. Points and air miles are the same thing in Canada and the U.S.   Drugstores or clothing stores even give you a card to collect point
