THE PALESTINIAN-ISRAELI QUESTION: WHICH WAY?



 
This is the puzzle for the Palestinians to answer.  They either come up with reasonable answers or remain mired in endless quagmire.  After so many peace efforts, the latest being the Donald Trump Master Plan, the Palestinian’s have again overwhelmingly rejected the move.  The big reason behind the rejection is:  The Israelis must go back to their ancestral land and Jerusalem must be their Capital!  Anything less, they insisted cannot be accepted.  This then forms the crux of their intractable resistance.  And in pursuance of this objective, the Palestinians have thrown, and continue to throw caution to the winds clamoring for the extermination of the Jews (this is utterly irresponsible) and now they have turned peaceful settlement of the crisis into a Gordian knot.  All peaceful strategies have now turned cold; when leaders continue to stick to irreversible methods the next option open is inevitable war.

But the big question is: Where do they want the Israelis to go?  Where were the Israelis from time of creation?  Shouldn’t there be any other way to resolve this impasse? Must they resort to confrontation? This is the grim spectacle the Palestinians are presenting before the world.

Thousands of souls have been lost since 1948 protracted wars between the two implacable foes. Surely the Israelis must have originated from somewhere!  And there is no better way to know than to refer to records written centuries before.  One of such authentic record is the Bible.

All through the 1,317 pages Old Testament the Jews were reportedly rooted in present day Israel.  Though dispersed to Egypt initially, history holds that they returned and there is arguably no dispute about this.  Where is Canaan?  Where is Beersheba?  Where is Caesera?  The Jews did not drop from the skies; the Palestinian must respect the dignity and sanctity of creation. God wouldn’t lie; God has specifically identified the present land and abode as God-given; what then is the dispute all about? The Palestinians should accept peace, grants, and aids from donor countries and forge ahead with development. Their people needs it; the next generations should face it: live peacefully with the Israelis; that is the only way forward. Anything less is doomed. It is even tragic that they allowed the disagreements to fester to this day.

2015 GENERAL ELECTIONS SHOCKING REVELATIONS ABOUT FUNDS DISBURSEMENT

How the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan frittered away the nation’s scarce resources is beginning to spill out – despite the shrill insistence by ex-Finance Minister, Okonjo Iweala that the records sheet were clean! Information pieced together by our investigators show that several paramilitary Agencies under the Federal Ministry of Interior shared a record 10 billion each for the purpose of influencing the March 28 General Elections in favour of the defeated incumbent.   However, things did not go down well with the ranks and file during the sharing. Outgoing Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Boss (name withheld) was said to have misappropriated the huge booty by allegedly pocketing 5 billion for himself, while declaring the other half (5 billion) as the sum total.   The bone of contention was that while the rank and file received 40,000 each some key associates close to the big guns went home with a hefty slice.   Causing the rumble.

OPEN LETTER TO HON. BABATUNDE FASHOLA

Permit me to go straight to the point.  All protocols observed Sir.  I note your massive achievement in your days as Governor of Lagos State.  And it is widely believed that your appointment as Minister of Works, Housing and Power would witness same admirable face-lift. As down to earth investigating Journalist, we travel a lot and wish to bring to your notice certain critical roads that need your urgent attention. One of them is the Lokoja-Okene highway.  Honorable Minister, the continued state of this road is a serious indictment and slap on the face of whoever is the Director of Federal Highways in your Ministry.  This major artery, as important as it is, has caused several unnecessary loss of lives.  There is simply no excuse for this road to remain in this dangerous state two years into the tenure of this administration.  What then differentiates the APC Government from the PDP, if not prompt attention to vital national assets? Seco...
