Well if the danger of Zionism and the history of Zionism and its attack as well as Isreal's attacks and exploitation of Africa, must be spelled out to some folks at this latter date then , it's like the Blabk s who Van Sertima statedwho were already here, and when the white man came and slaughtered the indians they said
What does this stuff between white men and red men hae to do with me i'm Black, and I have nothing to worry about, that is their affair
Foresight provides insight and let me post the Kwame Toure' vid again, and maybe will have to next year as well for those who enjoy denial
"At present, there is in Africa an intensification of struggles and conflicts between imperialism and its class allies on the one hand, and the vast mass of African peoples on the other...there has been an intensification of already existing western capitalist intelligence networks which work in close co-operation with neocolonialist governments to block socialist advance. Most prominent and active in Africa are those of the USA, Britain, West Germany, France, Israel, Portugal, Rhodesia, and South Africa...Dr. Kwame Nkrumah , pp. 48 - 9 "Class Struggle in Africa"
"How can Egypt, strategically situated as it is, combat the imperialism and neo-colonialism and solve the pressing and urgent problems of the Middle East
unless it has the backing of a Union Government of Africa? Only a Union Government can assist effectively in the solution of the problems of the
Middle East, including the Palestinian question."
Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, Speech, Summit Conference of the OAU in Cairo 19 July 1964

"The Unspoken Alliance": New Book Documents Arms, Nuclear and Diplomatic Ties Between Israel and Apartheid South Africa
Part 1
Israeli President Shimon Peres has denied reports he offered to sell nuclear weapons to apartheid South Africa when he was defense minister in the 1970s. On Sunday, the Guardian newspaper of London published top-secret South African documents revealing that a secret meeting between then-defense minister Shimon Peres and his South African counterpart, P.W. Botha, ended with an offer by Peres for the sale of warheads "in three sizes." The documents were first uncovered by senior editor at Foreign Affairs Sasha Polakow-Suransky, author of the new book The Unspoken Alliance: Israel’s Secret Relationship with Apartheid South Africa.

Well,...Dr. Nkrumah did state clearly that only a Union Government could effectively deal with the threat to Africa posed by Israel.
As far as I can recall, Nkrumah did not explain in detail zionism as it relates to imperialism.
This is a historical problem considering that the foremost pan Africanist Edward W. Blyden promoted the idea of zionism as advocated by weizman and smuts. Even in brother Malcolm's day there was no clear critique of zionism.
The only black nationalist/Pan Africanist organizer/leader who consistenly spoke concerning zionism was Kwame Ture.
I dont know how to go further on this with you without the risk of you taking my points personal because the hard reality is Black folks who adhere to christianity are pro-zionist. Black church delegations make pilgrimages to the holy land daily. Every black christian minister i watch on trinity broadcasting (except Fred Price) at some point demonize the Palestinians. The white chrisitans such as pat robertson and jack van impe make a living on pushing pro-zionist apocaylptic gospel feeding into the zionist hype. And these folks also denounce Obama as illuminati as well.
If the black church does not do its own due diligence on the pitfalls of zionism, dont expect the rest of black folks to do so. It doesnt matter what the rest of us think if the Afrucan Union government is not in place. All we can do is protest, and that has never been effective.
Zionism is apartheid but for most Africans its no longer our problem. Or so we think.
