"..the nation of Angola has not deteriorated, as of yet, within the same context as its neighbor on the southeastern part of the continent, Zimbabwe..."
Dear friends,
As the United States government and their allies in Europe continue their centuries-old policies against free African peoples and societies, it is refreshing to know that there are still liberated territories that are trying to progress. Albeit issues of corruption remain there, the nation of Angola has not deteriorated, as of yet, within the same context as its neighbor on the southeastern part of the continent, Zimbabwe.
However, there must be industries started, in order for that society to continue moving forward. Selling oil to "foreigners" just will not do. Additionally, tourism and other luxuries for outsiders does nothing to enhance the livelihoods of most Africans, even in places like Kenya that alleges to have a "tourism industry", for example.
In any case, below, is the link to a story about upcoming elections in the former "frontline state" of Angola. The violence that we have seen in other places around the world is not happening there, during election time.
Cheers!

US refuses Israel bomb technology?
Dear friends,
At least to me, it is quite curious that, just in the last day or so, a "former" George Bush aide has revealed that the president will not attack Iran before he leaves office...
That statement comes only a few days after the US government refused to sell certain military technology to Israel. To be sure, during South Africa's apartheid era, the US reneged on its promise to abide by UN sanctions against South Africa, by funneling technology and other assets through Israel. I now wonder: What country will be Israel's conduit for what they need from the US?
Meanwhile, Russia and Iran are developing closer ties. Talk about the economy, if you want. Wait until Mr. Obama is faced with having to defend Israel. Big problems. A new world order is apparently on its way.
Finally, the link below raises more questions than it answers.
At any rate, as the washed up whale insisted: Life's a beach, and then you die.
