Lightening Strikes.Puerto Rico,from a Rastafari perspective pt.1

We are in a time where serious people make history, and it seems so many have distracted themselves or hid themselves at the dis service of society. No matter where, and perhaps I am guilty as well in not helping as much as humanly possible.

A few days ago, I heard the news that the Beaches in Puerto Rico are going to be sold and laws were being passed to facilitate it. I have been to the Occupado “occupy” movement beside the Marriott in San Juan and saw the last 5 acres of the open and wild beach being defended by a hand full of environmentalists and the Local Rastafari Movement.  As they set up Solar powered sound systems and planted indigenous trees, I felt a feeling of hope, though surrounded by hotels that had encroached on the beach, essentially stealing public property. Puerto Rico is the home to huge numbers of Turtles that nest and migrate here, the beaches are not just wonderful for the people, they are the life source of huge numbers and kinds of turtles. When I heard of these laws being changed in order to sell the beaches it was slap in the face to those who have occupied the beach at great personal cost and risk for over 10 years as well as Puerto Ricans as a whole. It was also the feeling of the beginning of the end. Four days ago now seems like a lot of time… https://waragainstallpuertoricans.com/2016/06/26/beaches-of-puerto-rico-are-sold-to-us-billionairesby-puerto-rican-government-traitors/

On Wenesday, June 28th, The “Promesa” bill was passed, NJ Sen. Bob Menendez & Sen. Bernie Sanders called it “Colonialism at its worst.” Since that moment the very real threat of Monsanto fumigating us became a rumor, that made many of us nervous and un-prepared. I realized then, that it doesnt matter what you are doing or had planned, that when that time happens where you are ripped out of your ” bubble” to look at the bare fact that the US government aka BIG BUSINESS is forcing rush decisions to make it’s lasting blow. This has been really a hundred years in the making, 1898 The US forced the people to trade in their money at a 40% loss, and make farmers pay land taxes while allowing rich Americans to not have to pay any tax, local or federally, it spiraled to where the farmers sold the land and moved to the city, and 80 years later, the city is the mainland US. where millions of  Puerto Rican people have gone, in epic proportions. There has not been this many Puerto Ricans gone since the genocide of the Native Taino by the Spanish. Economically forced out or banished, and the land laid to waste until a foreign investor comes around.

Now let me come in here, and say what many of you may be thinking, am I a foreigner, who wants to start a Rastafari Community, buy land, ect… the answer is yes, but that doesnt mean I want to see anyone’s land devaluated, or cultures disrespected or societies where second class citizenship is acceptable. There is no respect for the man who enjoys how much his dollar can get him in a country that has been systematically robbed for hundreds of years. We represent Rastafari, a movement that believes in preservation of Native Culture, Human Rights and the end of Colonization. We are mostly farmers and feel that liberation and liberty is a Spiritual Movement. It is the point of Life, and seeing it denied to anyone is like being in a crime scene. AND that is what Puerto Rico has become, a giant Crime scene in which many are confused, or have built a false hope that justice in America actually exists.

I have had to have to serious reasoning’s with many, and I want to remind people what the USA has done its poor citizens as well as other nations, no matter the color or background. About the Depleted Uranium they used on Iraqi’s, leaving mutated children and also creating gulf war syndrome. About Flint, Michigan and Detroit. About Crack-Cocaine in California that spread across the hemisphere by the USA Government and  openly taught in University. Crimes that get covered up only to be revealed and the people refuse to hold anyone accountable. This dis empowerment and control of the people is global, where the people dont feel like they can reach these criminals and bring them to justice. Here is why, and it is important for Puerto Rico to know too, THERE IS NO DEMOCRACY OR GOVERNMENTS, ITS ALL ILLEGAL, IT IS AN OLIGARCHY. THIS IS RUN BY THE BANKS FOR THE BANKS…HOW DO YOU ARREST A BANK? AND WHO HAS…that is another subject for a different day. Back to Puerto Rico…

It seems we are out of time, that Big Business is here and says they own the spot.. That we are power-less, Well I dont accept that. Being an artist, a friend and I I hit the streets with a mural, which was on an abandoned school, in Aguadilla. The painting was inspired by a cartoon I has seen on this great blog and website, War on All Puerto Ricans (titled after the book). As I painted it , it seemed to go into its own world, where the neighborhood wanted to be included. Hence ” Real G 4 Life.” perhaps a local gang or just a motto, it seemed relative. We need heroes, we need the Real G’s for Life to stand up. No one see’s that real shit coming, but that is what it takes, and when everyone stands up then we have power.. in the next few days, I would realize that the people here could all stand together and it wont change a thing for them, for us it is good and important, but for the big money and power, they dont care, thats why they have politicians so you can blame them and they can lie and write stuff and the people will think change has happened.

This is the back ground, this drama is under way and there is a lot to report, right now things are getting worse and it looks like it will get incredibly bad unless something changes quick. The UN had a meeting on Monday, sponsored by Cuba with the support of many Latin America Countries for Puerto Rico to have equality and justice in some way, whether as a full fledged state or as a Independent Country. Ones can see the details for themselves, what needs to said here, is that relying or hoping for justice for a country that is founded on injustice and is married to a military industrial complex is a disaster.  Can we not see that The United States is a nation that profits from war and turmoil? Naomi Klien in “Shock Doctrine” speaks perfectly about this.

Rastafari has another way, and to Conquer this suffering must be looked at as a Spiritual Movement, based on the precepts of Christianity, for Human Rights and Sovereignty to be respected and protected. We need to look at all Caribbean and surrounding Islands to Latin America to seek out the commonality of not being under the thumb of US laws that prohibit our trade, ports and movement. We Must Arise the Love of God within the People to Love the People whom are the Children of God. Puerto Rico needs to see positive change as a mission from God to save and protect this Island, its people, rivers and future generations. I hope this turmoil makes the desire for independence come forth, but we as Rastafari must do our best to lead from all over the world to help communicate and form a union that can collectively bring security for this whole region, and the Earth. We have received the news that we are going to be gassed with ” NALED ”

NALED is supposedly an insecticide…but it is actually a “leading edge clinical trial drug.” The DBCP experimental derivative called NALED is now produced by Valent USA, which has a global collaboration agreement with Monsanto. NALED is technically called Dibromo-2-Dichloroethylphosphate. This is a derivative of Dibromo-3-Chloropropane (also known as DBCP), which farmers in all 50 states stopped using as of 1985.

They say its to fight mosquitoes but evidence shows it doesn’t work on mosquitoes. It does kill bees and will mix into the water supply. In truth, there needs to be an independent investigation into whether Zika virus has been a media weapon and excuse to use mosquitoes to spray everyone with toxins that are known to cause cancer and birth defects, ( only to blame the mosquitoes). Brazilians say the area that has the most birth defects are the places that were sprayed 18 months ago. Is this a depopulation experiment? It wouldn’t be the first on the island, which has been bombed and sprayed for over 50 years in US experiments.  Today I saw a pregnant woman, it took me a minute to realize I haven’t seen many here, and it is now on every news tv channel, the government saying don’t have children or get pregnant. It seems like from every direction they want the population to go away here, and if the native wont leave, The USA will tax, rob, and slash him until there is only the defiant in which will be gassed, denied doctors,  and left to die. Unless something changes, Unless we change as well, things will not improve. There is so much more, I look forward to sharing and learning, This is Ras Elijah Tafari from Puerto Rico signing out for now.  Pray for the Earth, Pray for the People, Pray for Courage in the face of evil.Pray for Puerto Rico and May All Nations be able to have a Right Government, for the People and by the People.
