It's me Daniel Asamota, here to announce that I'm gone. I'm going back to my homeland for I've decided it's time. Now a good friend of mine will continue the blogs and my email, but I'm gone. I did try an do some things while I was here but it has not worked out as I would have liked. None of it. America they claim is a land of opportunity, but opportunity for who? That lie is preached all over the world but it simply isn't true for Africans. For europeans, yes and even Asians. But the only reason it's so for Asians is because many of them, they've built up their home countries. If their countries were still struggling economically and politically like it is in Africa, they would find their opportunities few, as we do. Oh, there are some who can have success in America, but the streets paved with gold is a lie. IN fact, what I'm seeing is many of the whites in America and europe want to leave their streets of gold and come to Africa and take from us! They want to build whole neighborhood and cities and own our land and control the governments and then HIRE US TO WORK FOR THEM IN OUR OWN COUNTRY! Yes, they sell us this bullshit dream to come to America or europe and make it big, then they turn around and run to Africa and try an buy up all the land they can and make us servants in our own land! What happened to their streets of gold? I pray to God that this will stop!!!
Eitherway, I'm returning home and hopefully through my efforts, I will help make my land a better place to live for I can accomplish nothing here in the land of the free!
Now this is a very good question that every citizen of England should ask themselves! Somebody you have to support with their tax dollars just because they were born in a certain family. They really need to think about this; they complain about citizens living on the dole; well the royal family has been living on the dole for centuries. If that's how they like it, it's their country, their decision; if not, it's time to make a change and don't be fooled. Queen Elizabeth is about to die from old age, but don't think they don't have somebody already prepared to masquerade as her especially now seeing that the public is having this conversation seriously again. Too many people have too much to lose so they will not go down without a fight. That's been Britain's problem for years, these groups amongst them that want to keep their aristocratic titles and privilege. Britain will never be a free country as long as they're around, and I'm not just talkin' bout the royals. The royals are problematic but it's the nobles who can't exist without the royals. That's why they brought the royals back in the first place.
A closer look at Britain's constitutional monarchy and its legacy.
In
the wake of Queen Elizabeth II's health problems over the Christmas and
New Year's holidays, the queen's role as the Head of the
Commonwealth has been the topic of much debate. If she dies, who will
the crown be passed to? And would it even serve the country to continue
the constitutional monarchy?
Some
Brits have spent months opposing the constitutional monarchy and
calling for an elected head of state. In fact, this past April — before
the queen fell ill — the British group Republic called for a referendum on the abolishment of the monarchy upon her death.
Here's what you need to know about the current setup:
A
constitutional monarchy is where the ruling royal acts as the official
head of state but shares the power with a “constitutionally organized
government,” according to
the Encyclopedia Britannica. Today, the ruling sovereign is responsible
for a number of duties but “no longer has a political or executive
role,” according to the royal website. The monarch does, however, still oversee both “constitutional and representational duties,” which include opening Parliament sessions, approving orders through the Privy Council and meeting with the prime minister, among others.
However,
when it comes to politics, the queen is not able to stand for election
or properly vote. She also has duties that are specific to Northern
Ireland, Wales and Scotland.
As
a proclaimed head of nation, the ruling monarch is said to exist as a
symbolic figurehead that “gives a sense of stability” to the country.
Parliament passes legislation, and the prime minister is the official
head of government.
So what need is there for a constitutional monarchy in England today?
The
argument regarding the need, or desire, for a constitutional monarchy
goes both ways. Some have argued, especially in the case of the British
monarchy, that the royals serve only to fulfill a nostalgia for
Britain’s history and that they draw tourism. Others have said that
supporting a constitutional monarchy in Britain only serves to cast the
country in a classist, antiquated light, a sentiment echoed in an
Economist opinion piece from 2015.
"Opinion
polls and healthy sales of commemorative junk suggest that Britons and
foreigners alike love the Windsors," the piece read, referring to the
royal family by name. "But the royals may not be entirely good for the
country's image abroad, or its view of itself. Britain still has a
reputation as a snooty, class-obsessed place."
The
piece also argued that the concept of inheriting the crown purely based
on heredity and bloodline was "incompatible with democracy and
meritocracy."
However,
as staunch supporters argue, the royal family (and the subsequent
purchasing of what the Economist called "commemorative junk") is good
for tourism as well as the Crown Estate, an Atlantic piece pointed out.
For
example, more than 2 billion people around the world watched the royal
wedding between Prince William, now the duke of Cambridge, and
Catherine, now the duchess of Cambridge, the Telegraph reported at the time
of the 2011 nuptials. The U.K. economy saw an estimated £2 billion (or
more than $2 billion) boost thanks to the tourism surrounding the event,
according to the Guardian.
That first civilian Russian plane being shot down was a hint, then the murder of the Russian ambassador in turkey and now this. This is no coincidence. They're mad coz' Russia is interfering with their plans to knock down Assad in Syria. Let me tell you this, quit wasting your time. God has abandoned you and is getting ready to rake the coals with you! Your destruction is at hand! So do yourselves a favor and cease now! You can't and won't win! God is your enemy and you literally don't have a prayer! You've committed too much evil and condemned yourselves! So your day is over! That's what this is all about! Russia, don't be discouraged for God is with you not the evil white establishment of the west and God is getting ready to totally destroy them. So keep your chin up, and know that God will deliver a stunning victory in your favor!
Sixty-four
members of the official choir of the Russian armed forces, men and
women, were on the doomed plane, plus Lt-Gen Valeri Khalilov, the
Alexandrov's conductor.
The Alexandrov, which also includes an orchestra and dancers, also known as the Red Army Choir, created in 1928.
It
takes its name from its first director, Alexander Vasilyevich
Alexandrov, who wrote the music to the national anthem of the Soviet
Union.
Responding to news of the disaster in an interview,
celebrated Russian actor Vasili Lanovoy could barely control his
emotions as he explained the ensemble's significance:
"When I was
a kid, during the [Nazi] occupation in 1941, I heard their 'Stand up,
great country' for the first time, on the third day of the war.
"And
when I heard yesterday, I was stunned. I think it is a great ensemble
and it needs to be revived. It should not disappear."
One
of Russia's best-known humanitarian figures, Yelizaveta Glinka - known
popularly as Dr Liza - was executive director of the Fair Aid charity.

In
the Russian capital, she is mostly remembered for feeding, clothing and
providing medical care to the homeless people who sleep in train
stations.
"Liza Glinka helped the people that everyone turned
away," human rights activist and opposition journalist Zoya Svetova, who
knew her, told AFP news agency.
She was also known for evacuating
sick and injured children from the war-torn separatist regions of east
Ukraine, for treatment in Moscow.
Her actions in Ukraine brought
her the enmity of some on the Ukrainian government side, who went so far
as to accuse her of "abducting" children, while she was also criticised
in Russia herself for her political views.
But tributes were paid to her right across the political spectrum in Russia.
Mikhail
Khodorkovsky, the former oil tycoon jailed under President Vladimir
Putin, said: "She was ready to lay down her life for what she thought
right. And she did so. Our disagreements are in the past. May she be
eternally remembered."
Margarita Simonyan, head of Russian state
broadcaster RT, wrote: "Dr Liza was a person who attracted nothing but
admiration. Not for herself, it was never about her, only about the
sick."
Just a few weeks before the crash, Dr Glinka was quoted (in Russian) as saying: "We are never sure we'll come back alive because war is hell on earth."
TV crews
Nine
members of the Russian media were aboard the jet, including crews from
Channel One and the NTV channels, and the military TV channel, Zvezda.

Flowers have been laid for the dead journalists at Moscow's television tower
Their deaths became the subject of a furious row on Russian social media after socialite Bozhena Rynska suggested on Facebook (in Russian) that some of them had been killed as divine retribution for past misreporting by pro-Kremlin media.
Her comments are now being investigated by Russian prosecutors, an official told Russia's Ria news agency.
