Who would ever have imagined
that imperialism would once again
raise its dirty head, in the twenty
fi rst century, after it was believed
to have gone and died forever,
...thus allowing the human race to
once again take a deep breath and
to become the master of its own
destiny, able to go forward in
peace and harmony, one with the
other, under a new umbrella called
the United Nations? And who
would have ever guessed that this
deteriorated, decaying, degraded,
ignorant and cowardly ideology,
such as imperialism, would be
revived and resurrected by the very
people who were alleged to have
been pioneers of democracy, the
United States of America? Who
indeed would have ever imagined
that the twenty fi rst century would
be a journey toward the past, and
not toward the future?
Americans have always had
this false belief that it was their
God given right to become a
transcontinental nation occupying
the Americas from one end of
an ocean to the other, no matter
the amount of sufferings, deaths
and disruptions it might cause to
many hundreds of thousands of
different human beings like
the Indian Natives and the neighboring
Mexicans, just to name a few.
They called it ‘Manifest Destiny.
This American belief of ‘manifest
destiny‘ sounds even more bizarre
than the belief that the suicide
bombers proclaim to have about
finding seven virgins waiting for
them at the gates of heaven after
they die. What difference is there,
since they both invoke the name of
God to justify their murderous and
terrors actions?
In case anyone is confused, it is
the ‘manifest destiny’ phenomenon
that we now have in our hands,
as regards the present American
adventurism in Africa, which,
different from the eighteen
hundreds, when blacks were
considered only as three quarters of
a human being, let alone to join in
the game, ‘manifest destiny’ today
is ironically being played with the
help and collaboration of certain
greedy Africans who originate
from that continent.
So here is the USA, acting no
better than the terrorists that it is
claiming to be hunting, as they
unabashedly tell the world, in this
era of twenty first century, that they
had been anointed by God to cause
mayhem and suffering throughout
the world. It makes one wonder
if we are talking about the same
God. Nevertheless, with the God of
truth and fairness on her side,
Eritrea will surely prevail.
