A Confirmation of the ‘Majority low-cognitive Complexity’©

Why should the Lives of Donald J. Trump Sr of the United States of America, and Benjamin Netanyahu of the State of Israel be spared in Office or out of Office?
Enough is enough. It is typical of the Fraudster Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, to murder the political Leaders of other Sovereign Countries he has again done here https://share.google/fX3NF1srnYwqFG7Pk, and this time with the Complicity of another Fraudster, the President of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump Sr.
Donald J. Trump Sr demonizes everyone he does not like in the ‘Projection of Himself’© (‘Projection of the Self’©, per se); ‘so and so is not smart, of low IQ, crooked and corrupt’ when Ipemndoh dan Iyan, and Others like him who are not only academically accomplished with Research Degrees “contributing new knowledge to existing knowledge” know D.J Trump Sr is of, and within the lowest cognitive complexities demonstrable by, and in the Homosapiens, and the worst of those Attributions he throws at Others. I have referred to him, and his Supporters previously as ‘Proto-Homosapiens’© aka ‘Proto-Human(s)©. See, for instance, https://x.com/i/status/1854072485496365423.

What is “Evil?”
If I am ever to encounter “Evil” in my Life, albeit I have expressed many times as if I had, Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel is the ‘protruding Incarnation’© followed by his Disciple, Donald J. Trump Sr. Both have the ‘immoral Audacity’© to project ‘Master Netanyahu and Disciple Trump Sr Evil’© onto the Iranian Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, whom the two murdered around 28 February 2026, describing him as “one of the most evil people in History ... .” If there is ever any Replication of my Theory of ‘Proto-Homosapiens’ aka ‘Proto-Human(s)’, here we find it in another Confirmation that these Bipedals are bereft of any Element of Morality. Here is D.J Trump Sr who promised the Protos who voted for him that he would not initiate Wars, especially when implicitly calling for fellow Republican Senator Liz Cheney’s Assassination with his “firing squad” Plea. This is Donald J. Trump Sr whose Cowardice is resounding in the five times he “dodged the draft” of the US Military to go fight for “Justice for ... all Great Americans ... (Speech after murdering Ayatollah Khamenei) yet he carelessly sends out Others to go do what he was too “yellow-bellied” to, and he is already getting them killed. This deranged Trump talked about three US Military Personnel has having “made the ultimate sacrifice for our Nation ...,” but the imbecilic Majority US Population will not ask about his Morality in sending their Fellow Citizens to give the “ultimate Sacrifice” he dodged five times to render. He even has the Audacity to tell them there will be more Body Bags coming Home from a Mission he had no constitutional Authority to order.
That DJ Trump Sr’s Supporters, Worshippers, and Voters are ‘at tangent with Human Evolution’© is resonating when he remarked, after sending his ‘morally deficient Military’© to kill the Leader of a Sovereign Country, that “This is the single greatest chance for the Iranian people to take back their Country” but they have not asked themselves ‘when will the US Military “take back” the US from this Evil Donald J. Trump Sr who cares naught for the US Constitution and who daily sends out “his gang of bloodthirsty THUGS” (Speech after murdering Ayatollah Khamenei) to kill “American” Citizens. Only the ‘Proto-Homosapiens’ aka ‘Proto-Human’ will not be able to recognise the Irrationality of Trump Sr’s Justification of his Evils towards the Governments of foreign Sovereign Countries vis-à-vis Trump Sr’s Evils against the “American People.” Was it Ayatollah Khamenei who deployed “Immigration and Customs Enforcement” (ICE) Agents on the Streets of the US to execute US Citizens? Was it Ayatollah Khamenei who overthrew the Authority of State Governors to seize Control of National Guards to brutalize the “American People” with? Anyone familiar with the National Guard Structure in the US knows that Control is primarily ‘situationally dual’©, and that the Evil Trump Sr’s “Federalization” was plain Usurpation of State Government Authority.
Donald J. Trump Sr is “God” because ‘Proto-Homosapiens’ aka ‘Proto-Humans’ are the Majority Population in the USA, as they are in the World. Only the Military comprising ‘Proto-Homosapiens’ aka ‘Proto-Humans’ at the top would obey the Command of Donald J. Trump Sr, the ‘evident Coward’©, who dodged the Draft five times to commit the US Military to War against other Sovereign States. DJ Trump Sr has no constitutional Authority to order US Troops to War. Only Congress (House, and Senate) does. That Donald J. Trump Sr can contemptibly override Congress is another Confirmation that the US Constitution is an Anachronism. It was okay for the 18th Century at the Onset of the “American Republic,” but has long passed its “sell by date” for some scores of Years. Those familiar with my Work know I have, many times, described the US as a “Banana Republic,” which in fact it is, especially during the Tenures of DJ Trump Sr as President. Today, the “Separation of Powers” in the US Constitution is only textual, not practical. Read me here http://ipemndohdaniyan.blogspot.com/2024/11/if-military-are-genuinely-loyal-to-flag.html.
We know we cannot question the Self-consciousness of Benjamin Netanyahu to send Israeli Military Personnel into War. He was a Soldier himself involved in multiple Encounters with battle Wounds to prove his Bravery. He is not the ‘loudmouth Draft Dodger Coward Donald J. Trump Sr’© who was called five times to go fight for “Justice for ... all Great Americans,” but was too scared to rise to the Patriotism. Netanyahu, however, is as mercenary as Trump Sr. Certain of us know, Binyamin keeps getting himself elected to the Office of Israeli Prime Minister (PM) to avoid Imprisonment for Theft (albeit differently alleged within Israel’s Jurisprudence). He knows he will get a custodial Term, so he has begged the Israeli President for a Pardon for the Crimes he committed which are still being prosecuted in the criminal Courts by hiding behind his Position as PM – https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/11/30/netanyahu-writes-to-israeli-president-requesting-pardon-in-corruption-cases. Netanyahu hardly ever gets a Majority to be PM, but goes into Coalition with genocidal Israelis as himself. This is what they do; these Immorals do not have the Morality to take Responsibility for their Wrongdoings, but always seeking Refuge with “State Apparatuses” and/or State Processes. Is this not the same Story with Donald J. Trump Sr who went for the US Presidency to preclude himself from facing Prosecution for the Frauds he commuted as an ordinary Citizen? It might be the Case that this current yellow-bellied Act of Aggression by Trump Sr and Netanyahu against Iran, most probably again an Attempt to save Netanyahu from Imprisonment, will speed up the Process of incarcerating Netanyahu. Who knows?
As Donald J. Trump Sr, and Benjamin Netanyahu breach the Rules of common Decency, of “international law,” of peaceful co-existence, but go all over the World with their abominable Militaries, I ask; why should their Lives be spared, and those of who obeyed their immoral Command, in Office or out of Office? The same Repercussions should be extended to all who aid and abet these two Evil Militaries with no Defence with or Protection of “obeying orders.” We have a ‘practical Precedent’© to look to; the State of Israel is still going after those in Nazi Germany. If it is good for the Goose, it is good for the Gander.
The Question only Homosapiens aka Human-Beings can ask
Why must the US, and Israel have Nuclear Weapons, long-range Missiles, ‘Right of Territorial Integrity’©, but other Sovereign Countries should not unless permitted by the US? Only decent Persons – Proto-Homosapiens aka Proto-Humans – can even ask this Question.
Western Media and Israeli Sympathisers, especially ‘Self-forsaken Africa(n)’© ‘Anti-Self Propagandist(s)’© who rejoice in their 'Identity of Inferiority'©, are not telling us about anything like this https://x.com/i/status/2027872842889760782. What if this is true just as what if Western Media Reports are ‘ethno-selective’©? I know that Western Media Reports, and Commentaries are generally “ethnocentric.” Our Militaries never lose Lives or Battles, and we single-handedly win Wars against Iran never mind the many Countries surrounding Iran aiding, abetting, militarily supporting and contributing to Western Oppression, particularly US and Israeli Aggression against Iran. Only ‘Proto-Homosapiens’ aka ‘Proto-Humans’, because they are devoid of basic Intelligence, would gloat that Iran is less powerful than the cowardly Donald J. Trump Sr’s US Military and the Vampire Benjamin Netanyahu Military when both are sheltering behind Protections given by ‘anti-Human’© Governments of Gulf States. So, how many Countries is Iran alone fighting, including the ‘Self-styled most powerful Military in the World USA’©, and Major Power United Kingdom (UK)? Do not fool yourselves; the UK already joined in by allowing the US Military to launch Attacks on Iran from UK Bases. It was only not fully ‘hands-on part of’© the Aggression against Iran. France is ready to assault Iran. Let us assume the whole of NATO will crowd in, filtering the NATO guy’s Remarks. This is ‘Western Imperialism’©, and today relies on ‘Collective Western Besiege’©; ‘if one of us is bold enough to attack you, we all swarm all over you’©.
Tell me which Government of the Gulf States harbouring US Bases, for the Evil Empire USA to oppress the World from, allows its People the “Inalienable Right” of free Speech that DJ Trump Sr is now driving hard in the US to eclipse. When these Arab Gulf States facilitate US Bases in their Territories, they told the World they were Enemies of own Arab Peoples, and fully supporting the genocidal State of Israel. Their Populations too must rise against them, as Benjamin Netanyahu and Apostle Donald J. Trump Sr are rousing the Iranian People to rebel against their Government. Who does not rationalise that in giving Support to the US, the Arab Gulf States are invariably defending, and protecting the State of Israel’s Atrocities, and Terrorism? Let the treacherous Governments of these Arab Gulf States hit back at Iranian Retaliation, and let us see how much more these Governments’ Oppressions of their Peoples, those Peoples will continue to endure.
Wait until this Collective Western Besiege targets your African Countries, and will be confirmed again the ‘African Self-destructive Emi lo kan Self-interested Psyche’© (‘African Self-destructive Self-interested Psyche’©, per se). This Psyche has not learnt from its Histories of ‘racial-Slavery’©, and ‘racial-Colonisation’©. The Reality is; Western Imperialism today cannot beat down the non-western World in collective Defence against it. We already see how weak NATO is in its Antagonism of Russia over Ukraine. Sooner or later, Western Imperialism will run out of its ‘Military Weapon(s) of Cohesion’© aka ‘Materiel of World Devastation’© which the non-western World supplies the Materials (Ingredients) for. The non-western World parrots “Neo-Colonialism” from ‘Dogooder Western Mind(s)’© of “white” Folks when it is this World destroying itself through the Phenomenon I have identified as ‘Gain(s) Transaction(s)’© with ‘Western Supremacy Interest(s)’©. It is business among ‘Oligarchic Interest(s)’© in ‘transactional Gain’©. Read me here https://ipemndohdaniyan.blogspot.com/2025/05/the-us-presidency-is-four-years-term.html?spref=tw.
The non-western World really needs to wake up. I am a Westerner, and I am not the only Westerner who has a dim View of Western Imperialism. Our Stance cuts across all racial Identities, and ‘Superstition Preference(s)’© like ‘religional Trance(s)’©, i.e., “I had (Breakfast) Tea with my Daddy” or similar Hallucinations. I am probably the Pacifist singular in arguing that the only Way to achieve Pacifism is for all Countries in the World to have ‘Military Deterrence’© against Western Imperialism in ‘Collective Military Association(s)’© or severally. “Bi Ogiri o la nu, Alangba o le ri Aye wo Ogiri,” Yoruba Saying of ‘if there is no Crack in the Wall, the Lizard would not access the Wall’©. The Transactions between your so-called Leaders in the non-western World, and the Western World does not benefit you ‘the People’ of the non-western World, but your so-called Leaders for Generations to Generations. How so wretched are you being so adamant about a ‘universal God of Benevolence’©, but who has distinguished a “chosen people” among his – you say he, not I – Creations?” Ordinarily, is it so ‘cognitively tasking’© aka ‘cognitively taxing’© to ask yourselves “why are we not the Chosen People?"© The Notion of a “chosen people” in the Context of a ‘universal God of Magnanimity’© is so absurd that only Proto-Homosapiens aka Proto-Humans can have the “shameless audacity” to bandy it around.
It is curious, is it not, ordinarily? Judaists (“Jews”), and Judaeo-Christians (“Christians”) insist “God” created the World and all there in, especially the Human Being who is “in God’s own Image.” ‘Public Relations Revisionism’© (PRR) has since replaced the ‘Imperial Era own physical Image’© with ‘spiritual own Image’©. The “own physical Image” Proposition of “God” as male, and as ‘Occidental-Caucasian’© (“white”) exposed the Hand of “white supremacy.” It was too obvious. Whether in sheer Stupidity or with plain Audacity, these ‘Damage Control Revisionist(s)’© left intact the fundamental of the “own physical Image” Claim in the ‘digestible Nonsense’© of “Chosen People.” Over time, the plain Audacity paid off, and it is still paying off.
Your “personal God” is your Business, but to presume your “God” is god to everyone else is ‘Reality Disorientation’©
The ‘Steadfast Truth of Life’© that is also the ‘Most rejected Truth in Life’© that is equally the ‘undeniable Truth, but most denied Truth’© (‘undeniable, but most denied Truth’©, per se), is that there is no universal “God.” Religionists live in ‘Irreversible Hallucination’©. If there is ever a universal “God,” it is ‘God the Universality of Brute Force’©. History has not shown us otherwise, and the little we have gleaned from pre-History has not challenged my Conclusion. There are Others who believe, as I do, but I recognise we are ‘visibly inconsequential in Number’© (‘visibly inconsequential’©, per se). I submit the “God” as the ‘Universality of Brute Force’© from the Combination of the (i) ‘Judaeo-Christian Fervour’© of the Universality of “God” and (ii) observable chaotic World where Brute Force aka overwhelming Military Power is the World Order. The “universal God” as ‘tenuously inferred’© from the Bible is clearly not in charge of the World he supposedly created.
No, no; I am not questioning anybody’s Belief in the “personal God,” after all, you have your Reasons for believing so, which are, a priori, ‘Counter-Trust’© when you are visited with bad or good Fortune at different times. The African Mind, and I mean those of ‘Recent African Origin’© (RAO) aka ‘Recent African Heritage’© ‘Recent African Heritage’© (RAH) is so embedded in the ‘Imperialist Diminution of its Raciality’© (Imperialist Diminution of African Raciality’©, per se) that it is absent ‘existential Rationality’©. This Mind cannot grasp ‘basic cognitive Contradiction(s)’© (‘cognitive Contradiction(s)’©, per se). For instance, we know of the Existence of a Judaeo-Christian Church in Raqote in Kmt (Egypt) ca 181 CE, and that there was Acceptability of Judaeo-Christianity in Europe by Emperor Galerius of Eastern Rome Provinces through his “Edict of Toleration” of 311 CE. This is a Gap of 130 Years of Judaeo-Christianity’s Presence in Africa before it was felt in Europe. It was not until 324 CE that the Superstition of Constantine I, the Sole Emperor of Eastern Rome Provinces and Western Rome Provinces, over-rode Reason to make Judaeo-Christianity prominent in the Roman Empire. This is a Difference of 143 Years of the Attestation of Judaeo-Christianity in Africa before its noticeable Presence in Europe. It was in 380 CE, 199 Years after Confirmation in Africa that Judaeo-Christianity became the Religion forced down the Throat of Europeans, courtesy of the “Edict of Thessalonica” brought in by Theodosius – the Roman Emperor for the Eastern Provinces, and Gratian with his younger brother Valentinian II – the joint Emperors for the Western Provinces. However, Judaeo-Christianity was only in the Roman Empire. The Rest of Europe remained Pagan. Notwithstanding these Facts, the ‘wretched African Mind’© insists Imperialist Europeans took Judaeo-Christianity to Africa.
We are also aware that Bishop Agrippinus of Khart Haddas (Carthage) in present Day Tunisia convened the first ever recorded Council of Judaeo-Christian Bishops between 215 and 217 CE. This was about 110 Years or 108 Years prior to the First Council of Nicaea in 325 CE, when and where the Decision was made by Vote of what Books must constitute the ‘doctrinaire Holy Bible’©. The historical early leaders of the Judaeo-Christian Faith according to European Commentators/Writers were African. These were individuals like Tertullian (160-220 CE), Victor I (circa second Century CE) – who wrote the Roman Catholic Litany in Latin, Origen – (second/third Century CE), Agrippinus noted above as a Bishop as early as the beginning of the third Century CE but who was actually Bishop from late second Century CE and Saint (St.) Cyprian who died during the first half of the third Century CE. The much known and mentioned St. Augustine of Hippo (354-386 CE) was also an African. Around the first quarter of the fourth century CE, some two Centuries after the evident prominence of Africans as Leaders of the fledgling Judaeo-Christian Thought, the Leaders of Judaeo-Christianity were still visibly African. St. Alexander, Bishop of Alexandra, who chaired the First Council of Nicaea (325 CE) – convoked by Roman Emperor Constantine I – was African. Of course, if One is a ‘perennial Idiot’© which is what the ‘westernised African Brain’© is, One would dispute that the Founders of the Judaeo-Christian Religion, those Disciples of Jesus the Christ mentioned in the New Testament, including the Interloper ‘Paul-Saul’©, were not African. Despite these Facts, the ‘eternally embryonic African Brain’© maintains European Imperialism brought Judaeo-Christianity into Africa.
The Holy Bible as ‘Occidental-Caucasian’© Propagandum – Israelis are not the “Chosen People”
The so-called Holy Bible does not tell anyone that the “Chosen People” were ‘Occidental-Caucasian’©, those who refer to themselves as “white.” It is European Imperialism that has infiltrated the “suggestible brains” of the enslaved, and colonised, and saturated these Brains with the Nonsense that the “Chosen People” were “white.” This same ‘Propaganda Utility Bible’© does not also tell you the “Chosen People” were from Western Asia. It was ‘Western Machination’© to sever the Origin of Judaism, and Judaeo-Christianity from Africa that came up with the ‘Fallacy of Middle East’© to include Kmt (Egypt). If Kmt is not in Africa, how could the “Chosen People” ever be said to have lived in Africa? However, if Human Evolution began in Africa, as we know it did, how could the “Chosen People” have been anywhere else, but Africa? The Contrivance of the ‘Phantom Middle East’© to include Kmt has been delusional from Conception. Unfortunately for these Delusionists they could not, and cannot, physically displace Kmt from Africa to Western Asia.
The “Chosen People” were African. This is clear as Daylight in that Bible, and in the Histories of the Events in the Bible. Why do you not ask yourselves that with Western Expertise in providing Evidence of the ancient World, this Expertise is yet to affirm the Presence of the “Chosen People” in their so-called Middle East where their manipulative Minds insist ‘white Folks Chosen People’© migrated to from Kmt?
The Bible attests that the “Chosen People” who were called “Jews” were in Kmt living among the Population. There was no physically distinguishing Features between “Jews” and the Kmt (Egyptians). This was clear in the Pharaoh’s Daughter pretending the Child Moses, the “Jew,” as her’s to her Father who the Bible does not tell us was blind. We know that the Narratives in the Bible were many Centuries before ‘Arab-Caucasian’© lasting Presence in Kmt, and in the Rest of North Africa. The Events were in the Periods when the Kmt were fully of the African Race. Besides, the “Jews” were subordinates in Kmt, not Occupiers. The Arab “eternal presence” in North Africa as Occupiers was from just before the last Quarter of the seventh Century CE. Importantly, the Description of Jesus the Christ in the “Revelation of John” is that of an African. Even an Imbecile would appreciate slightly that being a “Jew” is not racial Identity or Ethnicity. One can convert to be a “Jew.” If One Race can convert to another Race or Ethnicity, would the whole World not have converted to Occidental-Caucasian? The World is saturated by ‘Proto-Homosapiens’© aka ’Proto-Human(s)’© some even with academic PhDs to their Identifications. Those PhDs are clearly Regurgitations if they are unable to grasp the “basic fundamental” that if One can convert to be a “Jew,” then being a “Jew” is not of ethnic Identity or racial Categorisation. Note: we have Confirmation of Arab ‘Semi-Occupation’© of Kmt ca 1700 Years BCE that again does not suggest the Arabs as “Jews” since they were Occupiers not Subordinates.
The ‘irreproachable Truth’©
“White” Folks are not the “Chosen People” in “virtuous Understanding” of the Holy Bible. This is why ‘White Country Israel’© has resorted to Force through Brutality, and Savagery to bully the non-white World to accept its false Inheritance as the “Chosen People.” If One were to trace the Origin of those who began to seize Palestine in 1947 and named it Israel in 1948 in complete Theft, and all Occidental-Caucasians, the so-called white, who say they are “Jew” or “Jewish,” One would find that Origin all the Way back to Eastern Europe mostly, including even those surviving Nazi Germany. The Story of Israelis, and “white” Folks calling themselves the “Chosen People” or “Jew” or “Jewish,” as ethnic or racial Identity is the Conclusion of telling a Lie continuously that it becomes “unconscious Falsehood.”
Ask yourselves if this “God” of the “Chosen People” you have adopted as both your “personal God,” and “universal God” is a Vampire that he – you say it is “he” not I – needs to drink regularly the Blood of the Humans you harass us he created by allowing the non-stop killing of Humans by Humans. Does this your “God,” in spite of the Omnipotence you claim he has, need to protect his “Chosen People” by these so-called Chosen People attacking Neighbours with Weapons of Mass Destruction using the Excuse of “Pre-emption?” So, when you all pray to this your “universal God,” what do you pray for? You do not pray for “universal Peace?” If you do, why has he not answered you? African Judaeo-Christians, in particular, are simply impossible; is this their “God” so wicked that his ‘Self-ascribed chosen People’©, Israelis, need to be evil to confirm they are his “Chosen?” Why is it that the ‘African double Pathways’© (‘double Pathways’©, per se) of Judaism and Christianity have not salvaged the African from being the most abject Human in the World, by own Hands, despite Africa's unmatched natural Resources? It is so sad for these Africans. They were acculturated by European Imperialism. Today, they see themselves, especially the so-called Nigerians, as free from ‘racial-Slavery’©, and ‘racial-Colonization’©. Aside these Delusions, their Brains are completely invaded and occupied by ‘Western Imperialism’© that they are dulled from condemning the Immorality of ‘Western Government(s) Terrorism’©. These Africans are unable to decipher the Implications of the Actions of and Utterances from Western Countries, and their Security Mechanisms, since the US and Israel latest Aggression against Iran.
The Truth, and it is unblemished, is that the “Chosen People” were Africans. No such Nonsense as a “universal God” anointed a “Chosen People.” The “Chosen People” was the “religious Symbolism” of those Africans who founded the monotheist(ic) Religion of Judaism from their Superstition, and whose Practitioners were known as “Jews.” There was a lot more to them in History, other than their Fantasization in the Bible, that I will not bother to broach here. These Africans Self-anointed themselves. They were the Africans we would, a priori, identity as Kushian, Cushian, Nubian. They lived in the Areas of (i) Upper Kmt (Southern Egypt), and today’s (ii) Sudan, (iii) Eritrea, and (iv) Ethiopia. This situates, for instance, those we know as “Ethiopian Jews,” derogatorily called “Falasha.” The History of Judaism, and Jews of and in Ethiopia puts the Lie to “white” Folks, as the “Chosen People.”
Yep; not all Africans were the “Chosen People.” So, stop the ‘improbable Claim’©.
Read Triangulating God: the church, tithe and... book by Ipemndoh dan Iyan https://share.google/u1tAGAiVI3WttyQAt
In the Section titled “What is the ‘Holy Bible’?” of the above Book, I observed the following:
To Judaeo-Christians, the ‘Holy Bible’ is inspired by God, every word of it. To the hardened or diehard or fundamentalist of them, this reception of the Bible should not be questioned if a believer in God and thence a worshipper of God wished to avoid the wrath of God. This is the main issue; the prohibition on believers/worshippers from questioning the Bible because to do so is to doubt the existence of God. In effect, to raise eyebrows regarding the presence of God is to seek passage to hell. There are those of us in extreme difficulties with this pre-emptive sanction against any challenge of the Bible. We are so piqued that this prohibitive condemnation is effective enough to prevent brilliant minds from questioning or challenging the veracity of the contents of the Bible. ... the Bible [is] inspired truth. ...
The Bible has a religious face ... the primary face diehard believers ... only ... see ... the spiritual face. ... the face of the ‘book of faith’ ... the indoctrination that to believe the Bible totally is to be in awe of God.
The Bible has a political face. The sentiment [of] a “chosen people” [as] political dogma intersected with spiritual undertone. It is an anomaly ... that God is so little-minded as to have a “chosen people” among God’s human creations. This implausibility of a “chosen people” slept and did not awake to the self-incrimination in Malachi 2:11 that Judah married a wife who worshipped another “god”. So, where did this other god come from ...? This “chosen people” rhetoric indeed overslept ... to the insistence that God created everything in heaven and on earth ... The truth is that the captivity of Israel in Egypt, the many defeats of Israel and Judah by other peoples, the many victories of Israel and Judah over other peoples as told and retold in the Bible are instances of power struggles between different peoples within proximate neighbourhoods. These instances are none other than stories of competition for territories and resources. They are age-old tales of avarice fuelling antagonism.
The Bible has a philosophical face. Before I direct us to the philosophical face of the Bible we must first understand what I mean by ‘philosophical’. With my use of ‘philosophical’ I mean the process of examining what it is and thinking hard on why what it is is what it is and acknowledging that if what it is is what we believe it is then we should accept what it is for what it is and/or submit to the expectations of what it is. If at the end of reading the preceding prose you find me annoying then I bid you welcome to the world of ‘philosophy’. It is the ‘deep thinking’ process that occupies the minds of those who choose to be thus occupied. The philosophical face of the Bible evidently boasts Lord Jesus, the Messiah. He is clearly thoughtful and incisive. No surprises there. He is the Messiah. King Solomon is another one and so is Apostle Paul. I am not particularly enthralled by Apostle Paul but I will not deny him the due he is entitled to.
The Bible has an historical face. This face is the overarching face embracing all the other faces. In a nutshell, the political current of the Bible intertwined with spiritual undertone within its philosophical grounding narrates the story of a people or the stories of certain peoples through the different paces of development including the formation of communities and the many changes those communities went through. The development(al) stages of a people as a matter of process express accomplishments, failures, social organisation harbouring the world view, religious faith and practice and so forth and so forth.
The historical face, this overarching face, allows for the distortion of facts and the creation of myths. Let me illustrate this overarching face with representations of the Bible over time and I will start by going backwards from current times, that is, I will illuminate this face in reverse chronology. ...
Even this Bible tells more than one Story that to overcome a Brute One does not have to be a Brute. When the time is right for a Brute to be subdued, it is the Brute in own Arrogance that will go after the ‘perceived inconsequential’©, and the Brute’s Defeat will be bewildering. History has been consistent, as far as I know. The US, and Israel, and the Totality of Western Imperialism are Brutes.
