KeymasterBazoum knows where the ECOWAS bodies are buried. That is why they want him freed! But by now, he has spilled the beans for sure.
We wait! BRICS should have a calming influence.

KeymasterI do so hate woke. The story goes that with a Queen re-release of major hits, the song Fat Bottomed Girls was left out, because of woke. These people are nuts. There is nothing bad about that song, except that it was not a very good song, but most Queen fans know it.
Bums!

KeymasterJust a little fun:

And more seriously, with the heat having subsided a bit, but still way higher than the averages, I’m going nuts about freshness and necessary temperature of cooked meat .. grew up in a meat family and we can smell if anything is kinda off.

KeymasterI wonder how much he earned for that little snippet?
In South Africa now, all the opposition parties joined forces for the next election wanting to displace the ANC. All but the EFF and their Malema leader who speaks with forked tongue. They were not invited.

KeymasterA little bit of music from China sent to me from the Chinese grouping that they allow me to hang around in. The story goes that Mao decided not to take his son’s body back to China. So, he was buried in North Korea together with all other sacrifice Chinese soldiers.
Mao wrote: 青山处处埋忠骨头 (Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the green hills)
Watch “Moranbong Band – Chinese songs (중국노래)” on YouTube
The first song, short, tells us of the deep hatred that shakes me, every time I encounter it.
The second song, story, tells of Mao’s son.

KeymasterI have just come across a real world example of the ‘intelligence’ that I was mentioning. Some would call it evil, but I think that is perhaps too limited in thinking. Perhaps not all of us, but at least I was astounded when I saw the size of the current modern day nazi infestation – I mean, we all thought the nazi’s were militarily destroyed and the few of them left over, are not a problem. Now, we see they are everywhere and it is a real problem. So, here is a current example of this intelligence and it is not stupid.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman:
Kyodo News: We learned that Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida sent a ritual offering to the Yasukuni Shrine in a private capacity today. Also, Cabinet minister Sanae Takaichi paid a visit to the Yasukuni Shrine. Do you have any response?
“Wang Wenbin: Seventy-eight years ago today, on August 15, 1945, Japan accepted the Potsdam Proclamation and announced unconditional surrender. The Chinese people, together with the people of the world, defeated the Japanese militarist aggressors and fascism. It was a decisive battle between justice and evil, between light and darkness, and between progress and reaction. This great victory will forever be remembered in the history of the Chinese nation and the pursuit of justice for all humanity.
The Yasukuni Shrine, where World War II Class-A war criminals are honored, is a spiritual tool and symbol of the wars of aggression launched by Japanese militarists. The negative move of Japanese political leaders on the issue of the Yasukuni Shrine once again shows the Japanese side’s erroneous attitude toward historical issues. The Chinese side has lodged solemn démarches to the Japanese side and stated its stern position.
I need to stress that earnestly facing up to and deeply reflecting on the history of aggression is an essential prerequisite for Japan to restore and develop normal relations with its Asian neighbors after World War II. We urge the Japanese side to earnestly draw lessons from history, stick to the path of peaceful development, take concrete measures to make a clean break with militarism and avoid further losing the trust of its Asian neighbors and the international community.”
We have still a major problem with what we call fascism. From a Machiavellian sense, good and evil are pragmatic and spell out the consequences of politics – good or evil or both combined are the means to an end, and the end always is the acquisition and maintenance of absolute power.
We still have that business of acquisition of absolute power going on – and this is probably the most major ‘Covid’ of humanity – some of us have the virus, and others do not, but the virus is by no means dead. OK, then we have to go onwards from here, and understand the ability to defend oneself for one, lives probably within the same virus – as far as we know today. And then it becomes complicated.

KeymasterAHH, look at the trajectory for Europe alone (now for the US and Canada as well). War everywhere Global South and Africa and East, so that the WASP population is overrun and REPLACED by a different peoples, through fleeing the war circumstance or simply having to become refugees and fleeing as refugees.
This is a replacement – a vast population replacement to keep the Kings and Queens and those of varied and grossly offensive sexual habits on their thrones.
Look at the sheer cruelty to those that flee – they die in boatloads full with never anything said. Syria is trying to bring refugees back, but they cannot, because they are denied the opportunity through sanctions and theft of their own resources while the refugees are dying in refugee camps all over the area.
There are still those Anglo Saxons that believe we are overpopulated, and they take every little bit of license to kill a few or a few thousands. The Ukraine, whatever else it is, is a sacrifice zone. The Palestinians are sacrificial lambs. While one is killing the populations, you may as well do it with a little fun for yourself and test your weapons and what is wrong with making some money in the process really?
The breakaway from this human sacrifice is what we are talking about with the move to multipolarity.
The deep tones of the music playing in the background is that of human sacrifice.
Allow me a moment of sheer intemperate and desperate frustration. It does not happen often but the next fellow that talks about the ‘death of competence’ in the West, I think I’m going to attack. Yes, the talkers are incompetent, but there is an extremely competent intelligence behind that. We may deeply enjoy the victories that come our way, but these are usually temporary, because this intelligence does not give up. What did Li Shangfu say this morning .. The Road is Paved with Feet.

Keymaster” … could Malema be an attack dog of the Anglo-Americans?”
I have been told that he is not shy to take payment from anyone offering payment.

KeymasterYeah, things break that crack – ahaaaaa … that is for sure. I have such a thing about kitchen equipment, I hate to pay the prices but I like the best of the best … and then it cracks! The motor is motoring on just fine – but the plastic bits crack and the thing breaks and sometimes the new plastic bits cannot be bought any longer. And a very good motor has to be garbaged because the plastic bits cracked.
I complained about a new washing machine that we had to buy because the old one was just broken. Well, I learned to manage that thing as well and it works fine if it is loaded with half of what it is supposed to be loaded with. Now it hums away, with just a little laundry. Literally half of what it is rated at.
Anyway, Mr P, if you are interested even on a vague level in this person called Malema, here is a fair video about the whole story. Its a bit long, but when he starts with his presentation, he talks fluently and not with too much slang. There is a clip in there of Malema in the High Court hard refusing to say that he will not call to ‘kill the boer’. Anyway, this is from the side of the mix there that could be anti-Russian but they do good work for the community and have done sterling work in setting together groups of defenders against the murders of the white farmers. This guy sets all that in context.
So, with South Africa doing nothing for their own minorities, and Russia doing a whole lot for their own minorities as well as China .. South Africa has never sat well in BRICS for me. The values are different – something there should crack as well.

KeymasterIs this true? Or is someone just messing with me?
The US standard railroad gauge (distance between the rails) is 4 feet, 8.5 inches. That’s an exceedingly odd number. Why was that gauge used? Well, because that’s the way they built them in England, and English engineers designed the first US railroads.
Why did the English build them like that? Because the first rail lines were built by the same people who built the wagon tramways, and that’s the gauge they used. So, why did ‘they’ use that gauge then? Because the people who built the tramways used the same jigs and tools that they had used for building wagons, which used that same wheel spacing.
Why did the wagons have that particular odd wheel spacing? Well, if they tried to use any other spacing, the wagon wheels would break more often on some of the old, long distance roads in England . You see, that’s the spacing of the wheel ruts. So who built those old rutted roads?
Imperial Rome built the first long distance roads in Europe (including England ) for their legions. Those roads have been used ever since. And what about the ruts in the roads? Roman war chariots formed the initial ruts, which everyone else had to match or run the risk of destroying their wagon wheels. Since the chariots were made for Imperial Rome , they were all alike in the matter of wheel spacing. Therefore the United States standard railroad gauge of 4 feet, 8.5 inches is derived from the original specifications for an Imperial Roman war chariot. Bureaucracies live forever.
So the next time you are handed a specification/procedure/process and wonder ‘What horse’s as came up with this?’, you may be exactly right. Imperial Roman army chariots were made just wide enough to accommodate the rear ends of two war horses. (Two horses’ asses.) 
Now, the twist to the story: When you see a Space Shuttle sitting on its launch pad, there are two big booster rockets attached to the sides of the main fuel tank. These are solid rocket boosters, or SRBs. The SRBs are made by Thiokol at their factory in Utah . The engineers who designed the SRBs would have preferred to make them a bit fatter, but the SRBs had to be shipped by train from the factory to the launch site. The railroad line from the factory happens to run through a tunnel in the mountains, and the SRBs had to fit through that tunnel. The tunnel is slightly wider than the railroad track, and the railroad track, as you now know, is about as wide as two horses’ behinds.
So, a major Space Shuttle design feature, of what is arguably the world’s most advanced transportation system, was determined over two thousand years ago by the width of a horse’s ass. And you thought being a horse’s as wasn’t important? Ancient horse’s asses control almost everything.

KeymasterHe says a lot of things that make absolute sense. His ideas on who owns the industry in the African countries that I know, mainly the Southern ones and east, are spot on. But he blames the wrong person – he blames the ordinary person, instead of those that still own the mines and the industries – only now with black management sometimes for show. I guess the ordinary person he can get to, literally he can point to them in the streets, but the owners he cannot get to. It is a very strange mix that one.

KeymasterOK, Malema. He is a horrible hater, of anything white. They are taking him to court now again (local social groups) for singing the song … Kill the Boer – kill the white farmer – Hate Speech. He started singing it just a few weeks ago (as part of political speech as an election is coming up). It is a drone song and is nicely within the dancing and shuffling of some of the black tribes. I grew up with the song and can do it as well as anyone else.
The thing is, he is said not to even be a South African, but moved from the North – I don’t know, but listening to his speech, he speaks the more Northern accents.
Let me tell a story. We were in Zimbabwe, and there is one tribe that cannot say L .. it is just a sound that they do not have in their own language. So, they translate it to R. So, we were there, and we had a cook. It sounds bad, like slavery, but no, it was a paid and beloved cook and it was not a thing of the women could work in the home. We all had our outside work to do. The cook’s name was William. But not being able to say R, it was translated to Wirriam .. and for short, wirm. He was the best cook in the world, and one time I came back from the big city with a new food processor, thinking it would help with making butter – we made a lot of butter because we did a lot of baking, and this all was stirred from cream, by hand. Well, end of story, Wirriam chased me with his chef’s knife (a panga) – I had to remove the food processor, because it was not his thing, and the kitchen was his, so what was I doing there anyways with my machine? That evening, he came in as usual to take ‘orders’ for light dinner, and for me, all I could have was shirred eggs and Wirm’s evil eye! And he probably spat in my eggs. Nothing more for me. I had to beg him to allow me to use my machine for baking and I could only do that when he was off shift.
So, Malema, in the same language as Wirriam would speak, sings songs of killing all the whites. He probably has a grade 3 education, but when people started talking about it, he received some kind of degree from some kind of school, so he is all Educated now.
Africa is a vibe. Malema is still fighting the old fights. Since he again started singing the drone song from the political platform, the killings of farmers just increased. It is back to court for him.
Here he is, telling Elon Musk he is illiterate. Its been a long story. I have no respect for him, because he has no respect for me.

KeymasterVery wonderful AHH. Thanks!
I actually sense a massive African change. And people like Cyril Ramaphosa (locally lots of press not really politically inspired but simply confused! about his flipflopping all over the place), will be losing their religion.
The first cadres after so-called end of colonialism, that had to deal with the devil are moving out. The second level cadres, that learned the lessons, are stepping up and saying wtf? Kinda a liberation of ‘independance’.
Same story now happening in Zimbabwe – the old ‘Kings’ have lost their lustre.
I really want to write the book. But, I will be haunted all across the world so I’ve been declining any movie deals – its a hard NO!. The USSR fights in Africa, back in time, although they are painting it white now, and saying they started the wave of anti-colonialism, were only the first proxy wars.
