One of the best articles I have read. Anybody else read it?

“Some of the land taken from black families has become a country club in Virginia,” the AP reported.

If the Jewish victims of looting/robbery before, during and after WW2 get their family property returned to them, then so should these black families, to the extent practicable.

The American descendants of African slaves enjoy a better quality of life than do those left behind in Africa. They have free education, free housing, free benefits, a higher life expectancy, more income, less infant mortality, less disease, and more leisure and entertainment.

The descendants of slaves have benefited from slavery as surely as Somalis in the West have benefited from the civil war. Otherwise, they would go back to Africa and live in mud huts. Whites would happily pay them to do so, and get rid of their crime problem and their burden on the tax payer. Instead, Africans risk their lives daily in rickety boats to cross into Europe and America.

Only the direct victims of slave traffickers are owed compensation.

The man who can sort out and transform Africa from what is it today, to a continent of civilized and cultured people who can enjoy the riches Allah has granted them in the form of natural resources would be the greatest revolutionary of the age. Africa needs a revolution! a transformation! an earthquake!

Knowthyself, we are not comparing African Americans to Africans, but to White Americans. Tell me why they shouldn't enjoy the same benefits to the same extent as white americans enjoy them?

The case for reparation is that slavery has harmed African Americans. That's false. Slavery has benefited African Americans. If not for slavery, they would be living in far worse conditions.

Slavery harmed those abducted from Africa, but their descendants have benefited from the suffering of their parents. If not, they should go back home.

The white man has done more than anybody else to better the condition of Africans. It is why you can talk shit about him in a Western country to which you have been admitted only by his good will. Foreign Aid alone saves the lives of millions. It is the Arab slave trade that needs to be compensated for.

Ok, knowthyself, that was a good discussion, let's end it here.

It wasn't really a discussion mate. I made a point, you asked why I made that point, and I told you so. It was more of an interview.

Are you afraid of disagreement? Because you backed down so quickly. I was expecting a little more pushback. If you stayed in for another minute or two, I would have surrendered. You were two more posts away from exposing my lies and propaganda.

I really think this guy is trolling.

Wow. So much retardation in one post, quite an achievement

Knowthyself, either you were trolling, or you were serious, neither option warranted further discussion.

Octavius,

That's not what you said when you were riding my d!ck last night you little dhoocill

LiquidHyrogen,

You are lusting after me again huh? Wipe my jizz stain from your mouth walaal.

Perfect Order,

You are a coward. Now you pipe up when you feel that you're got backup from your faggot lover LiquidHydrogen? When it was just me and you, you were cowering behind your keyboard trembling with fear. I had more respect for you when you were afraid of me. Now you're just going along with with what others say.

Knowthyself, now you've proven that not only are you a retard but you're a retarded homo

^ My sister in Islam, I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. Can you please remove my d!ck from your mouth when you speak?

There is a system, a hierarchy, in place in the U.S. Naturally some people must be at the bottom for a hierarchy to exist, those people are called Black Americans. Everyone of an ethnicity that is not Black, is encouraged to feel superior. All other ethnicities discriminate against Blacks in the hopes that they will eventually be permitted to enter this power paradigm. Similar to the Italians, the Irish (actually used to intermarry with blacks), the Jews who started to emulate whites and discriminate against blacks and were subsequently admitted into white society. It has become a gatepass in the U.S to discriminate against blacks, "you too look down upon blacks? reply: Yes!! Welcome to white society!!" New immigrants see everyone discriminating against blacks, so they start doing so too. Blacks can never escape this vicious cycle.
Walahi even Somalis discriminate against blacks, if only you heard what my hoyo calls them. It is very sad
