German President Resigns!!!!!

German President, Koehler quit immediately following remarks he made about the German military's mission in Afghanistan. Koehler's job description is mostly ceremonial as the country's President, compared to Merkel's position as Prime Minister. He stated that the military's deployment to Afghanistan was mainly in economic interest when he said Germany the participation in the war is "to protect our interests...for example free trade routes." Tisk tisk... and now he's unemployed like the majority of the working class population.

What do you think the future holds for the African continent?

I believe that, once the people who have a love for the country, city, or even continent are given the power to take control of the situation, they will run with it and we will see many changes. What we're seeing now is an effect of being robbed of the chance to make a change. When someone wants the power badly and they're told no repeatedly once they have a chance to take that power, they will hold on to it and won't allow the next person the chance to obtain that power. We're also seeing a lot of elders who should step back as elder statesmen and advice the youth instead of gripping to power and leaving the youth to suffer from unemployment, poverty, and idleness. Once we can take control of this, I don't think anyone will be able to compete with the African progress.

Now let me know. What do you think the future holds? and how can Africa get there?

No Coke for Coke

In the news lately has been the attempts to capture a Jamaican drug lord. Christopher "Dudus" Coke is a member of the "Shower Posse" gang. Dudus, now seen as enemy of the state was at one time a close ally of Jamaica's Prime minister, used to intimidate opposition voters and bring supporters during the elections three years ago. The story has changed now. Many of the "Shower Posse" gang have been rounded up and arrested and thousands of security officers have engaged in an urban bloodbath, shooting in the streets of Kingston, Jamaica killing over 30 people. Coke has yet to be found by security forces. If he is, he will be extradited to the US on drug and gun charges.

Operation Top Kill

In a desperate hope to stop the oil spills in America's gulf coast, BP has tried a new operation: Operation Top Kill. We will find out by Thursday afternoon wether or not this can be of help. Lately, many of the workers used to clean up the oil spill have been hospitalized, one of them air lifted, because of nausea. Many of these workers have also been suffering from respiratory diseases. Lately, pleas have been made for Washington to set up mobile clinics in the region.

Tit for Tat; Immigration Style

Okay so Hungary decided that it would allow dual citizenship for Hungarians living overseas. Slovakia, angry about this, decided that if any of its citizens should apply for Hungarian citizenship, it would strip them of Slovakian citizenship. There is a large ethnic Hungarian nationality living in Slovakia and Hungary decided that it would grant citizenship to individuals who have Hungarian ancestry and who can speak the language and live abroad. Robert Fisco, Slovakian leader, says Hungary's move is "a security threat." So far, Slovakia is the only country against Hungary's decision...There's always one.

A DISGRACE!!!

If only I could blame all disgraceful actions coming from Alaska on the stupidity of Sarah Palin then maybe just maybe I'd have no problem watching the video above. A soldier from Alaska was deployed to Iraq where he taunted two children on the side of a street asking them questions like "Are you a f**g*t? Are you a terrorist?" The children didn't understand him and continued to give him thumbs up until they realized that....They were being ridiculed. The soldier's excuse? Boredom. I wish they could throw him in a Mexican jail for those actions alone. Dude you're supposed to be protecting me from bombs not bullying children a$$hole!
