What's Happening in America?


Today we have a problem in America, but it not a problem that we haven’t had before. What we are experiencing in America is a strategic manipulation of the minds of the American people through social media subliminal suggestions, cronyism, media manipulation, talk show hosts continual demeaning rhetoric, republican disgust. Democratic disappointment, independent skepticism. What has changed? We have had this for over 100 years in the United States of America the difference is that all the faces of presidency have been “White faces” White men with well groomed appearances, beautiful wives and perfect looking children this is the acceptable condition that has made the poison easier to swallow. In the United States of America at the founding of the Nation the requirement to become a President or even a respected leader one had to be a White Anglo-Saxon Protestant (WASP). Any person who is not a WASP is really not respected and with the continual influence of Media manipulation and psychological control, most Americans think they are making independent choices for their lives and their families. What they do no understand is that they are constantly being told how to think, what is important to big business, what is important to industry but neither party is able to guarantee the safety of the American people. American’s are largely fat and spoiled because all we want to do is consume, without consequence are felling pain, we like credit card debit, bread and circuses. The leadership of the United States had failed the people 200 years ago, look at the inscription on the $1.00 bill. Everything we are facing was put into action over 200 years ago, by those White Anglo-Saxon Protestants. If you look up the root word of Anglo it comes from the word ANGLE (Fallen Angles) ANGLICAN (Fallen Angle Religion) NOW we have a Mormon who is vying for the presidency. If you study the root of the Mormon Religion they believe that they are the descendants of beings from the heavens and that they are called to have as many wives and children so that they can populate other worlds. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE and HAVE BEEN THE TARGET AND BUT OF THE JOKE FOR THE FALLEN ANGLES SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THIS NATION. WAKE UP AMERICA and VOTE RESPONSIBLY. If you look at the inside of the political scene you will find that the Republican’s signed a pledge to resist the current president so that the would raise propaganda against this person, this will ensure the Fallen Angles can gain the upper hand again and finish America off. And because thy have the acceptable appearance of the White Anglo-Saxon, the American people will gladly swallow the Poison and never question what happened, to think, many AMERICANS CONSIDER THEMSELVES TO BE CHIRSTIAN AND GOD-FEARING. THINK ABOUT IT!

TRIVIA: HOW DID AFRICA GET ITS NAME????

ANSWER

The answers below refer to Phoenician, Greek and Roman sources on the subject. From earliest Egyptian sources, officially dated at circa 2500 BC, Kh-afre, fourth king of the 4th dynasty reveals that an early Egyptian king had the name "Africa". That is because modern Egyptologists and others often mix the order of the hieroglyphs that the ancients wrote. Thus Kh-Afre is Afre-Kh or Africa.

The ancient Jewish records are supposedly silent on "Africa" but that is because the Hebrew name for the continent, "Auphirah" is usually written "Ophir". In I Kings 9:28, we read that the sailors of Solomon of Israel and Hiram of Tyre went to "Ophir-Auphirah". Then in the next verse, I Kings 10:1, we read that the Queen who "ruled" or "administered" [Hebrew sheb (Shin, Beit, Aleph)] Ophirah-Africa, came to visit Solomon and probably put in a courtesy call to Hiram of Tyre as well (circa 950 BC). Only one queen ruled Egypt, Nubia, Sudan and Ethiopia of those days and her name is Hat-Sheba-Sut or Hatshepsut. Her temple at Deir el-Bahari evokes the words of Song of Solomon "Oh my dove, you are in the clefts of the rock in the secret places of the stairs". She was the great African Queen after whom even river boats and Hollywood films are named.

However, this analysis depends on accepting that Egyptian chronology is wrong by 600 years and that all the dynasties of ancient Egypt are misaligned with other countries' histories by error factors of 600 years on average. That's why there are so many mysteries over what really is quite a simple answer. To see how complex answers otherwise become, read those below. The complexity in what surely should be a simple question-answer is revealed by the excellent research shown below. But the real situation - assuming the chronological problems/solutions noted above are in fact so - is surely much simpler and more obvious.

Also, the name Afre-Kh or Kh-Afre, noted above, probably simply means the "Kh of Ophir" or perhaps "Spirit of Africa".

One of the answers below explains that "Punt" is East Africa. Today, the British supported government of North Somalia is named "Puntland" on some maps. However, Amenhotep III said "When I look to the sunrise, I come to the countries of Punt". One Egyptian poet likened holding a girl in one's arms to be in "Punt". Somalia and East Africa were never such wonderful places. But Israel in the Days of Solomon was. Thus Hatshepsut's extensive report of her journey to "Punt" obviously refers to Sheba's visit to Jerusalem in 950 BC. However, Jerusalem in the soon to come Messianic Kingdom which many Sudanese already believe exists in modern Israel will make Solomon's Jerusalem pale in comparison. Jesus said "Hatshepsut-Queen of the South" would rise up at the resurrection and judge the leaders of Israel who rejected Jesus of Nazareth. This little aside shows that distorted history has been used to prevent people knowing what's in store for them if they believe and worship the true God (and what's in store for them if they do not). There is a good reason why the authorities do not want people to know the origin of the word (name) "Africa" because its great queen (Hatshepsut-Sheba) rejected her pagan gods and turned (repented) to the God of Solomon and the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob of Israel.

In summary, the oldest sources for the name "Africa" come from the Bible (Ophir) and Egyptian records (Kh-Afre or Afre-Kh). Attempts below by the linguistic community to derive the origins of the name "Africa" get swamped by borrowed traditions from the Biblical source and by loan-words that migrated through various languages after the Tower of Babel (circa 2200 BC).
It is now virtually impossible to tell which language borrowed from another or which language 'lent' a word to another via trade, assimilation, culture-swapping etc. However, certain things dominate no matter what. The ancient Egyptians had difficulty distinguishing between 'b' and 'p' in speech. Today, an Egyptian still says "Egypt is very boor". Generation after generation of invaders, while they may have changed much of the face of Egypt they could not prevent their children imitating the speech of the indigenous culture.

Answer


The name Africa came into Western use through the Romans, who used the name Africa terra � "land of the Afri" (plural, or "Afer" singular) � for the northern part of the continent, as the province of Africa with its capital Carthage, corresponding to modern-day Tunisia.
The origin of Afer may either come from:
  • the Phoenician `afar, dust;
  • the Afri, a tribe � possibly Berber � who dwelt in North Africa in the Carthage area;
  • the Greek word aphrike, meaning without cold (see also List of traditional Greek place names);
  • or the Latin word aprica, meaning sunny.


    The historian Leo Africanus (1495-1554) attributed the origin to the Greek word phrike (?????, meaning 'cold and horror'), combined with the negating prefix a-, so meaning a land free of cold and horror. However, the change of sound from pH to f in Greek is datable to about the first century, so this cannot really be the origin of the name.
    Egypt was considered part of Asia by the ancients, and first assigned to Africa by the geographer Ptolemy (85 - 165 AD), who accepted Alexandria as Prime Meridian and made the isthmus of Suez and the Red Sea the boundary between Asia and Africa. As Europeans came to understand the real extent of the continent, the idea of Africa expanded with their knowledge.
