Yes, thankyou Sir. I will research on that film you recommended; Kenya ia also having a new monster of dehumanised youths calling themselves "Mungiki" who go around beheading and blackmailing people; the beginnings of something so ugly and dumbfounding that many Kenyans refuse to even talk about it, or give evidence about the perpetrators. But this phenomenon, where it seems Human minds are spiralling into mental free fall into an abyss of pre-historic barbarism state of mind started (tentative guess) in the areas where extremists-- be it Islamic Fundamentalists, Nazi's, Racists, tribalists or the goons in Burma- teach and practice their deadly ideology. One can say the whole junk first got world wide attention (exkl. the attrocities of the 3rd Reich, Rwanda, Bosnia etc.) with the suicide bombers in the Middle East and the trend that gave birth to September 11. In other words, THE WHOLE WORLD is affected, not just SA. Events happening in other countries have a direct impact EVERYBODY. The poignancy of this hit me first with Sept 11., and more recently with the senseless murder of Lucky Dube. Before, I NEVER even imagined taking active interests in the SA Crime situation, or inter-racial problems, nor did I even know that SAans where unhappy with Thabo Mbeki, I had no idea; and frankly couldn't have cared less let alone take active interest at all. But when Lucky died, an event that is so painful for me, SA's problem became my personal problem. Now I want to know, what the Hell is going on there and why?! What can I Do to help?!
I firmyl believe that ALL our destiny's are inter-connected, it is our common divine destiny authoured by God. No need saying it's black, white, islamist etc.. Actually it's PEOPLE, Human beings like you and me that we should be addressing.
Maybe something will happen in DARFUR or IRAQ that will directly affect you for this point to sink in and for you to change your focuss from looking only at SA, but rather looking at WORLD EVENTS and pondering them. Whats does it all mean, I don't know..
I rather think that if everyone at least changes HIM or HERSELF, and CONSEQUENTLY, TIRELESS using EVERY OPPORTUNITY to spread messages of love, peace and tolerance; that we will have a better chance at beating this scrounge of evil that has now gripped the whole world.
PEACE Brother!
