TEI Enlightener - August 27th 2004 Broadcast Welcome to the TEI Enlightener broadcast for August 27th, 2004. It's been some time, however, we have been in the process of continuing our mission to spread awareness which leads to action which controls destiny. This is a Friday broadcast which will enable you to process the data over then entire weekend. Issue #1 An Effective Land Reform in Kenya We start out first by congratulating the young warriors of the Masai in Kenya in the first stages of land reform. Recently in the news, you may have heard information regarding the Masai warriors taking land back from those who inherited the land from British colonial settlers almost 100 years ago. Here is a quote from a white farmer whose land was reallocated: "The young warriors move in and cut the fences and bring in their cattle,'' said one white rancher, describing the recent raids in northern Laikipia. "You get between 5,000 and 10,000 head of cattle on your land.'' There was an agreement made by the Masai elders that basically gave their land away to the British colonialists for nothing. The illiterate Masai elders, signed the document officially with their thumbprints. According to an article in the New York Times, the agreement, signed on August 15th, 1904 said the Masai leaders "of our own free will, decided that it is for our best interests to remove our people, flocks, and herds into definite reservations away from the railway line, and away from any land that may be thrown open to European settlement.'' In all fairness, the white settlers were very clever to actually get the Masai elders to sign that agreement. If you want to sign over your land for a thumb print, that is your bad business and your mistake. In that situation, you get what you deserve. Undoubtedly, there were promises made by the settlers and more than likely, the promises were not kept.Though we were not there, we use historical precedence as an example. White settlers never honor their agreements. What's done is done. That is history. However, the establishment of an aggressive approach to land reform can obtain some measure of justice. We will say one thing to the Masai and all of the other tribes who gave land up for next to nothing. Your educated and committed brothers and sisters in America will ensure that nothing like that ever happens again. We have lawyers, leaders, administrators and architects, doctors, computer analysts and others. Everything you need to ensure that you do not allow your people to be taken advantage of again. When the need for skillful negotiators arises, use your resources. And to those her in America, if you have these skills, you are committed to aiding your people in any way that they need it, regardless of where they are. A good example of this was a friend I had in college. She was originally from Ghana but was raised her in the United States after her parents came here from Ghana. They traveled back a few times, however, here experiences were that of an American. After graduation from college after completing course of study in business (marketing specifically) she received a marketing position to work in Ghana to assist an American based company with expansion there. Yes, it is quite possible that the American company she is working for does not have the bests interests of Africa in m ind, however, what is important is that she is there, with her mindset and is in a position to accomplish much good while there. Not only for her people there, but her people in the United States as well. Back to situation in Kenya. The government is cautious and has jailed many of the young Masai warriors, however, more will rise up in place of them to continue the work. Many who have heard news of the action taking place there were reminded of Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe put forth the most aggressive land reform that we have yet seen. His program was backed by many of the governments of the African Union, which was surprising given the usual capitulation of many African nations when confronted with racial and ethnic realities that could create conflict, especially when dealing with land or economics. Could we one day see an aggressive land reform program adopted by the conscious elements here in America? Are you ready for that? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Issue #2 Darfur: Ethnic cleansing? Genocide? Tyranny? All over cable Darfur is being discussed. Conflict in the western provincial region of the Sudan is being considered by most observers, fair-minded and otherwise as being a certified human disaster. With tens of thousands being killed, hundreds of thousands being displaced and estimates of Millions being affected, this situation has shown up on the world radar. We recently published an edition of the Discovery Series as well as a Factual Analysis dealing with the situation in Darfur that will elevate your mind by delivering background information that is needed as you read and listen to the analysis of the controlled and scripted talking heads on television and on the radio. Keep in mind that just because someone it talking, does not mean that they know what they are talking about. We also recommend that you read the 3 part series titled "Darfur: Seeking the Truth" in the next three editions of the Final Call Newspaper. You should subscribe to the Final Call Newspaper if you have not done so already. Go to www.finalcall.com right now and do it! And while you are there, you can pick up some of the messages delivered by Minister Louis Farrakhan to the media, students and intellectual communities in the Sudan.

By the way, since we mentioned it a few weeks ago, demand has dramatically increased for copies of the Free CD of the May 3, 2004 press conference delivered by Minister Louis Farrakhan at the National Press Club in DC. In that press conference, he exposed the neo-conservatives who guide the United States in foreign policy matters. After he spoke, it has been open season on the neo-cons and now they appear to be bickering amongst themselves. In the midst of all that, here comes the Republican Convention, and Rumsfeld is about to take a fall for Abu Ghraib. You have to stay aware of what is happening around you. Everyone is affected. If you would like to obtain your copy of the CD. Email the TEI so we can tell you how to get it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Issue #3 Dual loyalty for Jews. What is wrong with it? Is it so bad for the Jews in America to admit that they want America to see things in a way that is favorable towards Israel? This is an example of what should be done if there are people of the same ethnicity who share the same awareness which leads to action which controls destiny. No problem. Just don't try to stop other groups from doing the same thing to act in the best interests of their own people. Until next time. Thank you and tell a friend about the Truth Establishment Institute. Awareness + Action = Control of Destiny! Choose your path! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- H.D.S. GREENWAY American Jews and dual loyalty By H.D.S. Greenway | August 27, 2004 http://www.boston.com/news/globe/editorial_opinion/oped/articles/2004/08/27/american_jews_and_dual_loyalty/ CONSERVATIVE WRITERS David Frum and Richard Perle, in their book "An End To Evil, How To Win The War On Terror," spend the better part of four pages confronting the charges that their agenda seems to many like a "Zionist cabal." They say that in interviews around the world this question always comes up -- "with beguiling directness" in the Far East, "with excruciating awkwardness among Germans," and with "elegant sinuosity" from the British. Is there among neoconservatives, many of whom are Jewish, a hidden motivation to make sure that American foreign policy is good for Israel? The authors find such suggestions insulting and anti-Semitic. But Tom Powers, in The New York Review of Books, suggested: Why not admit openly that of course the fate of Israel is much on their minds? "Anglophiles of yesteryear did not apologize for arguing that it was in America's best interest to come to the aid of Britain in 1940, and Polish Americans did not worry in silence about the fate of Lech Walesa. Complex loyalties are a big part of the American style." Powers has a point. "Bundles for Britain" drives were big in American East Coast cities in the early '40s, while some Irish-Americans -- one remembers Colonel Robert McCormick's Chicago Tribune -- felt just as strongly that the British did not deserve our bundles. No one questions that Polish-Americans feel strongly about the old country, and none complain about Irish-Americans today involving themselves in the fate of Northern Ireland. Cuban-American passion for what happens on their island is legendary, and could dramatically affect yet another presidential election. Lawrence Lowenthal of the American Jewish Committee told me that for "decades and decades American Jews have been apprehensive about charges of dual loyalty. The Pollard case made us very nervous." Jonathan Pollard was an American Jew caught spying for Israel and is now serving a life sentence. "Pollard stepped over the line," Lowenthal said, but then so did Americans who ran guns for Irish Republican Army. When his family first came to America from Europe, Lowenthal said, they wanted to put their past behind them. "Good riddance." But all that has changed; today's Americans are no longer ashamed of ethnic ties. Many Mexican-Americans are insisting on keeping their language and culture. French-Canadians in the United States who once turned their back on their French heritage are picking it up again. Greek-Americans have a strong political lobby, so do Armenians, although neither is as powerful as the pro-Israel lobby. The congressional black caucus made its influence felt in sending the Marines to Haiti in 1994, and black-Americans had a role in the anti-apartheid cause in South Africa. Duel citizenship is on the rise. Israel allows anyone Jewish to become an Israeli. Ireland allows anyone who can prove he has an Irish grandparent to apply for Irish citizenship, and "we certainly experienced an enormous increase in applications over the last 10 years or so, " says Isolde Moylan, the Irish consul in Boston. In Perle's case, much has been made of a paper that he and others, including the Pentagon's Douglas Feith, wrote some years ago for Israel's right-wing politician, Benjamin Netanyahu, calling for a "New Strategy For Securing The Realm." Their advice included getting the United States to overthrow Saddam Hussein as well as other moves in the Middle East to increase Israel's strategic position. But Americans have written constitutions for foreign countries, soldiered in foreign armies, and even served in foreign governments. Americans who identify with a foreign country are not, and should not, be held suspect. There is nothing un-American about wanting to link this country's foreign policy to that of Israel. Nor is it anti-Semitic to disagree. H.D.S.
