Dear Editor,
Jerusalem belongs to Judah. All Guyanese must think geography and look at a map of Africa. The tribe of Judah created Jerusalem. The conquering lions of the tribe of Judah will one day re-enter Jerusalem.
On May 14, 2018 the USA government moved their embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and Ethiopia government representatives were in Jerusalem to welcome the representatives of the government of the USA. International Decade for People of African Descent Assembly Guyana IDPADA-G should have been on the ball and advise the President of Guyana, David A Granger, to send a Guyana government representative to Jerusalem to be photographed with government representatives of Ethiopia, Kenya, South Sudan, Tanzania, Rwanda, Zambia, Angola, Democratic Republic of Congo, Republic of Congo, Cameroon, Ivory Coast – eleven countries of Judah’s heritage (ceremonies, observances and customs of ancient times) – at that building in Jerusalem where now is the new USA embassy. When Europe conquered Jerusalem a thousand years ago leaders of the tribe of Judah fled to central Africa and continued their drama of ceremonies, observances and customs. Hence these countries were in Jerusalem.
Granger lost a play which can easily be explained by him to the world that this has to do with making all Guyanese whole (reparations) – as I do now. Because many Ethiopian tribes were in Jerusalem to witness the arrival of the USA embassy staff, this act by the Guyana government would have been seen by the Guyanese people as reparations, solidarity and brotherhood with Africans. The apostles of central Africa were in Jerusalem on May 14, 2018 and the world would have understood Guyana’s solidarity with them. Diplomacy has to do with geography. Guyana should have been at the Battle of Jerusalem on May 14, 2018.
A thousand years ago, to where did the warrior Lions of Judah flee when Judah was conquered by Europeans and we lost Jerusalem? Second, where were the Lions when Arabs captured Jerusalem from the Europeans a few centuries ago? The Lions of Judah had fled to their ancient homelands in central Africa and many became apostles. Prisoners of war were taken from Judah to Europe by Europeans to work as slaves and the escapees of that genocide were led to central Africa. Think geography and look at a map of the world. The unconquered Lions fled to that belt from west to east between present day Ivory Coast and Ethiopia. Think with a map in front of you! From that belt the warlike lions of Judah stopped the advancing Arab Muslim armies centuries later. Today, the struggle against Arab Muslim terrorism in central Africa continues and Guyana must oppose that like Cuba opposed European apartheid in southern Africa towards the end of the last century.
I conclude by lamenting that Guyana should have had a diplomat at that building in Jerusalem on May 14, 2018 in fraternal solidarity with central African diplomats witnessing the arrival of USA diplomats. That Guyanese should have been a recognized Pan-African/Rastafari diplomat.
Yours faithfully,
