Why Didn't Obama Tell Us About AFRICOM?
Dr. Ray Hagins
Maat Hotep,
...During our Sunday Night Live Show, [25 January 2K9] our chief elder of The Afrikan Village at Kansas City called in to share some information with us. After answering his call and giving and receiving greetings from each other, he asked me if I had ever heard of “Africom.” I told that I hadn’t and he proceeded to inform me about it. Well, as he was talking, I googled it. Many sites came up. The first site that I clicked on was Wikipedia, which stated, …
“The United States Africa Command (USAFRICOM or AFRICOM) is a Unified Combatant Command of the United States Department of Defense that is responsible for U.S. military operations in and military relations with 53 African nations -an area of responsibility covering all of Africa except Egypt. Africa Command was established October 1, 2007 as a temporary sub-unified command of U.S. European Command, but became fully autonomous and operational on October 1, 2008, when it officially took command of U.S. military operations within the aforementioned area of responsibility.”
When did the USA find a need to become a “fully autonomous” combatant entity in EVERY COUNTRY IN AFRICA (except Egypt)? And, if Egypt would have allowed it, it would be included in this domination as well.
Being ex-military, as I read this I experienced so many emotional responses, but the most immediate thing that came to my mind were the words recorded by our late warrior scholar, Del Jones, in his song entitled “Slaveship.” The words are “Ancestors PLEASE help the people to see; they won’t listen to me.”
As Elder Kazuma continued talking I could hardly digest what he was saying because my mind was engaged in a panoramic and retrospect view of so much of the things that I had taught over the last 17 years about the plans and agenda of the US Government and its foreign and domestic policies.
Well, Barak Obama is now the President of the United States of America. And I finally have the answer as to why there was so much media attention given to this past election. Ralph Epperson authored a book entitled, “The Unseen Hand,” and in this book he exposes one of the most effective tactics that the government uses when they want to create and implement something that they know the people would not agree with. This tactic is called “distraction.” Well, not only were the people in Amerikkka distracted; the entire world was distracted by the past election circus. So many thousands of our people are still rejoicing over what they think they did by getting out there and voting. This was truly the greatest distraction of all time. I don’t know if you have heard me teach about the National Security Council Memorandum 46 (NSCM/46) or not, but just in case you haven’t, allow me to include some of its points here. (By the way, NSCM/46 was signed into law under Presidential Executive Order in March 1978. It was written by Zbigniew Brezinski, who was the National Security Advisor at that time, and is PRESENTLY Barak Obama’s chief advisor.) (If you do not have this document you can download it from our research database on our website at www.wblr.com)
Notice some of the wording of NSCM/46…
“The objective of our policy toward Black Africa is to prevent social upheavals which could radically change the political situation throughout the area. The success or failure of our policy in the region depends on the solution international and internal issues whose importance of the United States is on the increase.
II. A. U.S. INTERESTS IN BLACK AFRICA
A multiplicity of interests influences the U.S. attitude toward black Africa. The most important of these interests can be summarized as follows:
1. POLITICAL
If black African states assume attitudes hostile to the U.S. national interest, our policy toward the white regimes; which is a key element in our relations with the black states, may be subjected by the latter to great pressure for fundamental change. Thus the West may face a real danger of being deprived of access to the enormous raw material resources of southern Africa which are vital for our defense needs as well as losing control over the Cape sea routes by which approximately 65% of Middle Eastern oil is supplied to Western Europe.
2. ECONOMIC
Black Africa is increasingly becoming an outlet for U.S. exports and investment. The mineral resources of the area continue to be of great value for the normal functioning of industry in the United States and allied countries. In 1977, U.S. direct investment in black Africa totaled about $1.8 billion and exports $2.2 billion. New prospect of substantial profits would continue to develop in the countries concerned.
Internationally, damage could be done to the United States by coordinated activity of African states designed to condemn U.S. policy toward South Africa, and initiate discussions on the U.S. racial issue at the United Nations where the African representation constitutes a powerful bloc with about one third of all the votes.
3. Political options
The FBI should mount surveillance operations against Black African representatives and collect sensitive information on those, especially at the U.N., who oppose U.S. policy toward South Africa. The information should include facts on their links with the leaders of the Black movement in the United States, thus making possible at least partial neutralization of the adverse effects of their activity.
