There is virtually no doubt that many black people are as brilliant as sunshine, and perform excellently when given opportunities in white institutions, but when they are left to govern themselves, the results have been chaos, confusion, destructions, excessive corruption, and sheer abuse of valuable resources meant for their populace. If you doubt these assertions, look across the periphery of black nations, and what do you see? You see civil strife in nations like the Ivory Coast, Liberia, Democratic Republic of Congo, Sierra Leone, Sudan; you see proliferation of pandemic diseases like AIDS and malaria; You see unacceptable crime rates in nations like Jamaica, South Africa, Nigeria, and many others; you see grinding poverty, hunger, and hopelessness in nations like Haiti, Ethiopia, Rwanda, and Uganda; you see mayhem and absolute lawlessness in places like Somalia, and of course do not forget the recent carnage in Rwanda, the amputations of legs and arms, and senseless mass rapes of innocent young girls by drunken soldiers in places like Sierra Leone and Liberia. This book discusses the political situation of selected countries governed by the black man, and reveals the problems of governance, mismanagement, excessive corruption, kleptomaniac behavior, and various abuses of the ruling class, and the resulting grinding poverty, hopelessness, diseases, and civil unrest in these nations. These problems are fueling the mass exodus of essentially economic refugees from these nations to the Western countries. This book discusses how ruthless, selfish, and egomaniacal leaders are destroying their countries by sowing the seeds of anarchy, and then turning around and throwing sand in the eyes of their populace by blaming the Central Intelligence Agency and other Western intelligence networks for the coups, civil wars, assassinations, and chaos and the resulting poverty in their nations. The author concludes by suggesting that the World Bank, which holds most of the loans of these nations, can be empowered to help manage the revenues of these nations for the betterment of their entire societal development, which will benefit the vast majority of the needy, the helpless, the diseased, and those caught in the mire of grinding poverty.
