BELGIUM murdered 6 million Congolese. That is not in our European history. But, it is in our European history that Germany murdered 6 million fake Jews. Every year, the White world reminds us to commemorate the 'Jewish' holocaust. But, the same White world has never ever reminded us to commemorate the Congolese holocaust. Even history has been profiled based on race. It is our duty to commemorate our own. The spirit of my God of Africa does not allow me to support such unrepentant murderers. Lest we forget. #CrimesAgainstHumanity

As a football fan and avid historian, I usually wondered why unlike the neighboring countries, Argentina despite having had many slaves and also indigenous native populations like the neighboring Brazil and Uruguay today has very little diversity, being almost 98% Caucasian. Well, this is how it goes: Black people once formed half the population of many parts of Argentina. At one point, 50% of Bueno Aires was black. But through a deliberate policy of genocide and ethnic cleansing, Argentina sought to delete blacks and indigenous people from its conscience. In 1813 a law was passed decreeing that anyone born in Argentina would be free. This however did not apply to blacks. Black men were forced to fight the Argentine Civil wars on both sides in exchange for freedom from slavery where they sustained heavy casualties on both sides. This led to a disproportionate number of the women who were married off to white men. President Domingo Faustino Sarmiento sort to wipe out black people completely from Argentina. He bundled them into Ghettos with poor sanitation and Healthcare and many died of Malnutrition and epidemics like yellow fever. They were also purged for alleged crimes in genocides that went largely unreported. Many fled to neighboring Brazil and Uruguay where the political conditions were better. Argentina also did the same to native populations in Pantagonia. And then they encouraged immigration of whites people from Europe while restricting immigration from any other racial group, eventually completely whitening Argentina. This is among the most successful ethnic cleansing stories in recent history.

FIFA has appointed a new referee for the USA and Belgium match.

Brazil is heading home. You can bookmark this.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino tried to force a handshake between heads of Israeli and Palestine football associations during a FIFA conference in Vancouver Canada. It did not go well.

What is happening in South Africa is horrendous.

Here, I agree with @FrankGashumba. There's a concrete reason the greats of all time — wisemen like Socrates, Plato and Aristotle disliked Democracy. If you are flying, you want your pilot to be the very best, not just qualified. If you're informed that your pilot is a former taxi driver who trained himself on how to fly an aeroplane, you won't even get near that aircraft. You want to be treated by a qualified doctor. You want your house designed by a professional architect. You want your kids taught by the very best teachers. You want your roads constructed by the best engineers, etc. But when it comes to political leadership, the one thing that determines the welfare of an ENTIRE LIFE, we want every boofhead and nitwit to be allowed to choose and be chosen. That's TRAGIC. Like Socrates, I don't believe that a narrow few should only ever vote. I do, however, insist that only those who have thought about issues rationally and deeply should be let near a vote. The general population is NOT smart enough to manage things, even contemplate the gravity of their decisions.

Some religious experts say that Jesus had a girlfriend. Really???

The scenes of African migrants being brutalized in South Africa are horrifying. I think these people have really got it wrong. Instead of fighting the foreign mostly white owned companies that are unfairly monopolizing their resources, and their government which is enabling this, they are turning on fellow poor Africans. Its completely unacceptable to target anyone’s business regardless of their race or nationality, but I wonder why only black people and their businesses are targeted, not white, not Indian, not Chinese if foreigners are truly the problem, why Africans specifically? It’s because fellow poor black people are an easy target. It’s the epitome of self loathing. As African people, we have shared experiences and a shared destiny. A fellow African isn’t your enemy. You will never hear a European brutalizing a European from another European country. In fact they open borders and encourage free movement of people and goods. This xenophobia is misplaced. And for South Africans, what if other African countries decide to retaliate?

I have gone through pages of historical records on the second world war and I can't seem to get credible evidence that Japan had telegraphed it's surrender to US before the dropping of atomic bomb. Someone please help

So the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki may not be the reason Japan surrendered. Quite interesting.
