38 Ye have heard that
it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: 39 But I say unto
you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right
cheek, turn to him the other also. (Matthew 5:38-39)
19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give
place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the
Lord. 20 Therefore
if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing
thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.(Romans 12 19-21)

All this gives the lie to the claim by many in the Western media that the nations of Africa are "FAILED STATES" - the plain implication of such a statement being that these nations are "FAILED STATES" BECAUSE THE BLACKS OF AFRICA ARE A "FAILED PEOPLE" - as Gary North and other Christian evangelicals would have people to believe. But the fact is, these states are "failed states" because the West - and most particularly, the United States - have very purposefully and deliberately created the conditions to collapse them as states. Moreover, the fact that these states are ruled over by brutal THUGS is true precisely and only because the West has installed these THUGS in power to do their bidding - people such as Mobutu Sese Seko - and assassinated all those who would have aligned Africa in the interests of the African people - leaders such as Patrice Lumumba.

For the past several decades, a New World Order has been emerging. The model calls for most of the nations of the world to be divided into two parts - an elite class of political / economic "managers," which in most countries approximates about 20 percent of the population, and a "worker-serf" class, which makes up the remaining 80 percent of the population. The "managers" rule the country at the behest and in the interest of American corporate power, which itself is sustained by the machinations and intrigues of the CIA, which in turn is backed up by the guns of the American military. It is an Orwellian realm of "Newspeak" in which there is very little connection between perception and reality; where "freedom" means "slavery;" "democracy" means rule of the many by the few in the interest of corporate profits; and ORGANIZED religion is utilized as a significant and extremely consequential instrument of state control.For the eighty percent of the population which falls into the "worker-serf" category, it is a notably cruel and utterly despotic system. It's held together in two ways: first, by police forces given to fascist-like brutality, torture, terror, and, on extreme occasions, the use of death squads; and second, by an ORGANIZED religious system which has mastered "magic," "mysticism," and Pavlovian psychological techniques.

Burundi's President Pierre Nkurunziza Sunday made his first appearance since an attempted coup, warning of a threat from Islamist Shebab militants and sending a clear message he is in charge of the central African nation.
Dressed in a blue blazer and polo shirt, the
president smiled and shook hands with reporters at the presidency in
Bujumbura's city centre. He gave only a brief statement, without even
mentioning the failed plot to overthrow him.
A group of top generals on Wednesday launched a
bid to oust Nkurunziza while he was on a visit to neighbouring Tanzania
after weeks of deadly street protests over his controversial bid to
stand for a third term in office.
Nkurunziza spoke about reported threats from
Somalia's Al-Qaeda-linked Shebab militants, who have threatened attacks
against Burundi and other states that contribute troops to the African
Union force in Somalia.

"We have taken measures against Al-Shebab. We take this threat seriously," the president said.
Nkurunziza has been accused of launching a
campaign of repression against opponents and trying to silence
independent media since coup leaders admitted defeat on Friday after
fierce fighting with loyalist troops.
Seventeen alleged plotters appeared in court on
Saturday, including a former defence minister and two top police
commissioners, to face accusations of "attempting to overthrow the
state".
Willy Nyamitwe, a close aide to the president,
said Burundi's election commission "could decide to delay" parliamentary
and presidential votes due to the crisis, but gave no indication the
president had changed his mind about standing for re-election.
"We will put everything in place for the laws and
constitution to be respected and for elections to be held," he said,
insisting any delay would not be used as a pretext for Nkurunziza to
prolong his rule.
Parliamentary elections are due to take place on
May 26, and presidential polls on June 26. Nyamitwe suggested they could
be delayed by "two or three days, by a week".
The election commission said a decision on the delay would be announced in the coming days.

Born-again president
Opposition and rights groups insist that
Nkurunziza's bid for a third five-year term is against the constitution
and the terms of the peace deal that brought an end to the country's
civil war in 2006.
The president has also been accused of
intimidating opponents and failing to lift the fortunes of small
landlocked Burundi, one of the poorest countries on the planet.
Nkurunziza, a former rebel leader and born-again
Christian who believes he has divine backing to lead the country, argues
his first term did not count as he was elected by parliament, not
directly by the people.

There are fears Burundi could slide into a cycle of vicious
reprisals against anyone linked to the coup, after witnesses and
security sources said troops loyal to the president have been hunting
down rival soldiers, even the wounded in hospital.
Aide Nyamitwe dismissed concerns the lives of
alleged plotters could be in danger. "No one is going to be killed,"
aide Nyamitwe told reporters.
"Some of them surrendered and others have been
caught by security forces. The others who are still on the run are being
sought by the police and the army to be brought to justice. All of them
are going to be judged."
Weeks of protests have already left at least 20
people dead, many of them shot by police during the demonstrations. It
remains unclear how many were killed during the coup attempt.
Protests due Monday
Reflecting the continued tensions, the United
States said Sunday it had evacuated 20 Americans, along with Canadians
and other foreign citizens from Kigali, the day after European aid
groups pulled out their foreign staff.

Bujumbura was calm on Sunday, although civil society and opposition activists have vowed to resume street protests on Monday.
"There is a truce so we can bury our dead," said
Pacifique Nininahazwe, one of the leaders of the campaign to stop the
president from standing again. "The protests will start again on Monday
morning."
Officials say chief coup plotter Godefroid
Niyombare, a former intelligence chief, was still on the run -- although
he had said Friday that he planned to hand himself in.
Rights activist Innocent Muhozi also said
journalists were being subjected to threats of arrest and even death,
and that the head of the prominent independent radio station RPA had
been forced to flee the country.
Burundi's main independent radio stations were
attacked and put off the air by loyalist troops during the coup attempt.
The president's aide, however, condemned the attacks.
More than 100,000 Burundians have fled the violence to neighbouring nations, the United Nations said Friday.
