The Jewish Question: a Lesson for a Nigerian StatesteemCreated with Sketch.

in #politics7 years ago (edited)

There is no new mind niggling matters witnessed in Nigeria without it being witnessed sometimes, somewhere. Our woes are solvable with a great chance for rapid development. It is our avarice and schadenfreude nature that make us unprogressive. The current Jerusalem question, as it is now seen from different angle with an antizionist question, which some apologetics to Zionism or what rationalists call "judeophobia", is enough evidence to make us ponder on the Nigerian 99 problems, which include but not limited to the

  • Herdsmen question
  • Biafra question
  • Oduduwa question
  • Arewa question
  • Hausa question
  • Fulani hegemonic question
  • Igbo supremacists question
  • Hausa feudal question
  • Yoruba question
  • Ethno-religious question
  • Islamization question
  • Christian domination question
  • Power question
  • National question
  • Political question
  • Developmental question
  • Nepotism question
  • Economic question,
  • Cohesion question etc. which have been the bottleneck for the writers (optimistic, pessimistic, apologetics and objective ones).

The Jewish question is/was antisemitic in nature which was aggravated in the 17th century Europe that paved the way for the Jewish Holocaust in the 20th century WWII, Zionism (that later progressed to Rothschild's attainment of Jewish objective of having a Jewish homeland in Palestine which was agreed by England and France that made them drifted from the MacMahon-Hussein correspondence).

It is worthy of note that Jews, having been the most persecuted people on the surface of the Earth recorded, based on their experience with corpus of literature spanning over 4000 years, religion and culture that is conservative and non-proselitizing in nature, nonconformists, socially hard to be integrated, economically Judeo-capitalist, witty, and progressive in all aspects of life, anywhere, everywhere around the globe for over 4000 years; and curses & xenophobic outlook they were/are graced with by different people whenever they are assimilated as either emigrants or refugees made the colonial Christian power of Britain found it the hard way, but the only way to chunk Jews in Palestine in 1917.

The Jews had their worst persecution in their history by the Nazi government of Germany under Adolf Hitler which was antisemitic than antizionist. The Germans and their European allies founded what they thought as the "Final Solution to the Jewish Question" as a euphemism to exterminating the whole Jewish population on the surface of the Earth, via genocide, massacre, annihilation and any worst kind of mass murder even if it results into taking kamikaze attacks, choking, gas extermination chambers in Sobibor, hard labour, hunger and slow deaths by imprisonment. To the Nazi, proposal of creating a Jewish homeland in the colonial Africa (probably, Madagascar) as proposed by some, the Jewish integration by Karl Marx cannot work. Their thought was "the Jews are the cursed people who could not allow the world know peace unless they are systematically and totally exterminated." This radical idea started as a xenophobia, avarice of the Jewish success, indoctrinated hatred towards the orthodox Judaism and bigotry. That was what made the Nazi thought the only solution to German woes was the genocide.

This destructive approach and accusation of Ethnic Jews as the problem of Europe, made them murdered over 6 million Jews from 1941-45. It still did not solve the problems of the Germans but made them lost being the world power to the Americans. That same kind of "judeophobia" or Holocaust made Jews stronger than one can easily tame nowadays. With their experience and wit, they still control the world indirectly as America is their puppet. Even though the Jews have been warned against seizing Jerusalem by force with a covert intension within their Rabbinic Judaism, they continue pursuing the Land at all cost from internal and external support. Taking over Jerusalem might be their gravest error. That's why I feel less concerned about it. My own concern is raising alarm at the untold massacre that destructive thinking may cause from the separatists angle or religious and ethnic prejudice.

THE MORE YOU HATE PEOPLE AND ACCUSE THEM OF BEING YOUR WOES, THE LESS SUCCESSFUL YOU BECOME, AND THE MORE SUCCESSFUL, POWERFUL AND RECOGNIZED THEY BECOME IN THE WORLD.

It is worthy of note that, scholars like Marx posited total secularism of Europe as the final solution to underdevelopment and the Jewish question. It has been the best system ever gaining a wowed development in the region till date. Apply this total secularism (not paper and pretentious secularism we practice) in Nigeria and unbundle the country's system of governance to Confederacy, with each region being autonomous, the solution to all our 99 questions will get solved! Division/secession may be a great mistake, yet, continuing with the current system will pave a way for an untold destruction of the nation in years to come. I am not a prophet, but this is speculative. I however, support restructuring campaigns only if it means Confederacy.
