Obama´s Worldview: Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade Is Equal To Holocaust

Written by S. Njokede

Obamalogic. To compare Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade to Holocaust is lowlife behaviour. Not that I’m belittling holocaust but to compare it with slave trade is either the height of booming stupidity, ignorance or well-studied deception. While both are fat crimes upon mankind, their apartness is miles away. Holocaust is a cakewalk, trounced by the satanic dealership of live Africans as article of trade that spanned 300 yearlong plus still counting. Obama has done everything right since inception as president except that he married holocaust and slavery as husband and wife in his Ghana speech that’s already legendry.

 Okay! Lets say slavery and holocaust are coequals ála Obama, when in the name conventional wisdom are the Europeans and Americans going to pay compensation to Africans for the crimes of slavery, like they’ve done to Israel on holocaust plenty times over? It has become incumbent to pay the African-kind of mankind their due for slave trade since Obama has synced both calamities together as one and the same. To pay Jews their just due for the crime of Holocaust while stifling all efforts to make Europeans and Americans accept their culpabilities for slavery how much more paying Africans for it, is double standard. Any recognition by President Obama to make both crimes likewise should also mean to pay for both crimes likewise - not one without the other.

Germany in concert with other Caucasian countries has found it fashionable to pay hugely both in-kind and cash to the Jews for the crime of holocaust. They’ve no qualms in buying and selling Africans as commodity of trade so it isn’t worth accepting as ill, let alone compensating the African-kind for it. Caucasians will do well to compensate Africa the same way they did Israel to let the sleeping dog lye forever for the sake of fairness and equity.

Mind you, upon loads of money and material doled out by Germany to the Jews in the past, she’s still paying to Israel for holocaust and despite this. From time to time, Israel is asking for more reparation from Germany. Few years ago, Israel commandeered Germany to send them military weapons for free whether they liked it or not. This particular incident did raise a hell of a dust between the two countries. It didn’t end there. Anyone who badmouths or contests the holocaust is digging his own grave with his own hands. A British man was jailed in Austria few years ago for implying in his book that holocaust never took place. As an African, one gets jealously bitter that the Caucasians have made holocaust the big draw in international relations, while slave trade an equally more surpassing criminality than holocaust, is the scorn of European and American conspiracy theorists.

Aside from France, which did apologise for the via-Atlantic slave crimes few years ago, others, plus America are living in denials as if nothing had happened. Fact is that, Africans slaved for more than three hundred years to make Europe and America the economic and military superpowers they are today. The fear of compensation is the result of their denials. France has every reason to apologise even so, they’ve to step up and pay Africans – mouthing an empty apology isn’t good enough. One-quarter of France’s wealth as per today came from her former colony of Haiti then-named French Saint-Dominique. Haiti was the richest colony in the-then New World of slave era.

The Haiti story is the same as the larger Africa continents´story. I’ve seen and heard people who in an attempt to make their points that Africans are an accursed brand of humanity hence anywhere you see them worldwide, there are confusion and anarchy in their attempts to self-rule. They’ve cited Haiti as an extension of the African curse. They contended further that despite Haiti being outside of our continent, their incapacitation to govern themselves is reason enough that Africans are as lazy as they’re endangered species, not minding where they’re found in self-rule. What most people didn’t know is that Dominican Republic and Haiti were at one time in history merged under one country by France and Spain who swapped both countries to and fro as either one country or diveded into two. What happened was that after both countries got independence, Dominican Republic was given a large chunk of monetary head start, while Haiti got no dime from the colonists. The reason for this was that while Dominican Republic area of the colony was populated by fair-skinned and people of European descent, people of African descent populated Haiti. Supposing that you’re wondering why Haiti is such a drawback in contrast with its progressive Dominican neighbour!

Most of Africa’s erstwhile and extant leaders are old dirty bastards no doubt about that, with president Yar´adua not better off. That’s not enough for Obama to say that holocaust is the same stuff of which slave trade was made of. Only a fool would claim that Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade is not a palaver in the wheel of progress in Africa. Compensation is long overdue. With whichever modus operandi used in paying Jews, they should use same to pay Africans up. All reasons given by children of slave traders as to why they’ll not pay Africans isn’t watertight in the aftermath of paying Israel for holocaust.

Have you ever wondered why Israel partakes in the European Champions League and the European Music Contest done yearly in Europe? Look at the world map and tell me if Israel is in Europe. Israel has a way of making Germany and Europe-wide to pay for their sin of holocaust by all means necessary through their noses till eternity.

Obama should kneel down and pray to Modesty and History for forgiveness in the aftermath of comparing holocaust to the satanic Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade that spanned three hundred years when put side by side with holocaust that lasted for a period of four years in Adolf Hitler’s country. It’s the sweats and bloods of African slaves that built the European and American powerhouse of today. They owe Africa the whole world and everything therein. Slave trade is everything that Holocaust isn’t. Slavery is far bigger and damager of all. You might want to debate it! Even when Africans suppliers weren’t ready to supply, the European slave masters organised the raid themselves.

The question is; Did Obama mean any harm to Africans in that qualification?. Lets temper our postulations with reasonable decorum, that is, if not with love and understanding.

Your Excellency S Njokede,

Please sheath your sword. I know Obama is a very important global personality and so his words must be screened closely to ensure that it passes all the tests of wisdom. OLPS Jesus Christ suffered the same fate in the hands of the Pharisees and the Sadducees who at every moment wanted to catch him off balance with superfluity of naughtiness.

Even if he said that slavery and holocaust are the same, which I believe given his IQ, he never said, wiif Nigeria our country. Are we not suffering a combination of slavery (human trafficking) and holocaust (Biafra before and Niger Delta) in Nigeria 2009?
I understand your passion for the ills of slavery even acknowledging that when our brothers were unable to supply the Europeans, the Europeans passed by our brother and went on raids to meet up with supply:rolleyes:
My submission is that we have to move on and stop crying like babies. After the Igbo holocaust, one of the many in Nigeria, the Igbos moved on:D It is the mark of a group to rise above all man made injustice and oppression and move up in the human race:idea:

Slavery is not new or unique to Africa. Gauls,Goths, Nords, Hans, Saxons, Greeks, Slavs are all European people (tribes,nations) who have been enslaved at one time or the other.

Obama is clearly not the most knowledgeable person on Africa, if he only googled 'Africa' he would find the following

"Slavery has been practiced in Africa, as well as other places, throughout recorded history ( Still in practice today in Mauritania, Sudan, Djibouti and Chad). Between the seventh and twentieth centuries, Arab slave trade (also known as slavery in the East) took 18 million slaves from Africa via trans-Saharan and Indian Ocean routes. Between the fifteenth and the nineteenth centuries, the Atlantic slave trade took 7-12 million slaves to the New World.
In West Africa, the decline of the Atlantic slave trade in the 1820s caused dramatic economic shifts in local polities. The gradual decline of slave-trading, prompted by a lack of demand for slaves in the New World, increasing anti-slavery legislation in Europe and America, and the British Royal Navy's increasing presence off the West African coast, obliged African states to adopt new economies. Between 1808 and 1860, the British West Africa Squadron seized approximately 1,600 slave ships and freed 150,000 Africans who were aboard. Action was also taken against African leaders who refused to agree to British treaties to outlaw the trade, for example against "the usurping King of Lagos", deposed in 1851. Anti-slavery treaties were signed with over 50 African rulers. The largest powers of West Africa: the Asante Confederacy, the Kingdom of Dahomey, and the Oyo Empire, adopted different ways of adapting to the shift. Asante and Dahomey concentrated on the development of "legitimate commerce" in the form of palm oil, cocoa, timber and gold, forming the bedrock of West Africa's modern export trade. The Oyo Empire, unable to adapt, collapsed into civil wars.

Akuluouno,you have made my day.This passage captured my soul:

'Please sheath your sword. I know Obama is a very important global personality and so his words must be screened closely to ensure that it passes all the tests of wisdom. OLPS Jesus Christ suffered the same fate in the hands of the Pharisees and the Sadducees who at every moment wanted to catch him off balance with superfluity of naughtiness.'

Villager you truly understand that words can be flown like kites and woven like silk....they can inllame and they can pacify. But you excel in the concept of Jesus being rocked off balance by words that amount to 'superfluity of naughtiness'

...and so because a very heinous crime of untold magnitutude occured a few hundred years ago.....

Is that why I do not have electricity today?

Is that why I cannot conduct a simple election, maintain law and order, put in a place a system of justice and run public utitlities? All because of a crime that my great great grandfather did not even live to witness?

Is that why most of Sub Saharan African States are either failed or failing states?

I am not in anyway downplaying what is arguably the biggest calamity to have been visited upon the human race. I am however saying that our lot today is entirely our own making and that we should stop this blame game!

This writer is like a little kid. He does not see African leaders role in the slave trade. Like a child that thinks he can get away with anything without copability - this writer ignores his continents role in this once awful business.


Besides, it would be the African Americans that would benefit from any monetary reimbursement. Not continental Africans.

These writing are getting monotonously irresponsible.

I'm beginning to think Africans do not think logically or objectively.

You are on tangent here...you are way outside the scope of the author's point!

Though the write up is so diluted left and right and on digression mostly, I get his point and that is, it is IRRESPONSIBLE for Barry to put Holocaust and Slavery on equal plane...the atrocity of the latter far outweighs the former!
