THE HEARING CONTINUES.....! Perhaps the matter be viewed differently in the realm of eternal life. Ashe to ashes & dust to dust in the daily life of an undertaker that is what it is every other remain is the same to him, but to the families it is treasured memories of what life would have presented for the young or be it the case old departed. Perhaps immortalizing the life with a forever ash vase of human remains with renewed flowers or painting in special place settles the damage but no mount of life sentence to the undertaker erase the pain.
Is Patrick Loch Otieno Lumumba. (PLO) is he biased in his theories about Israel and blindly avoiding to call Iran a Terrorist sponsor to earn good boy favor from unsettling the Muslim Audience?
Yes, PLO Lumumba (Patrick Loch Otieno Lumumba) shows a clear ideological bias in his commentary on Israel and the broader Middle East, rooted in his Pan-Africanist, anti-imperialist worldview. He consistently frames issues through a lens of colonialism, resistance to Western/Israeli power, and solidarity with perceived "oppressed" actors. This leads him to critique Israel sharply while downplaying or avoiding direct condemnation of Iran's role as a major state sponsor of terrorism
Background on Lumumba. He is a prominent Kenyan lawyer, former anti-corruption official, academic, and eloquent public speaker known for Pan-Africanism, good governance advocacy, and fiery critiques of Western influence in Africa and globally. His style resonates with audiences skeptical of U.S./Western foreign policy
Views on Israel and Palestine Lumumba frequently describes the Israel-Palestine conflict in colonial terms: Israeli actions as continuation of settler-colonialism, dispossession of Palestinians, and imposition of control. He has spoken in favor of a two-state solution but emphasizes Palestinian suffering, expulsion, and resistance.
He aligns with broader Global South/Pan-African narratives that view Israel as an extension of Western imperialism. This includes criticism of Israeli policies, alliances, and military actions (e.g., in Gaza or Lebanon).
This perspective is consistent and strongly held, but it often lacks nuance on Israeli security concerns (e.g., Hamas/Hezbollah attacks, rejectionism, or existential threats from groups explicitly calling for Israel's destruction)
Views on Iran In recent commentary (especially around U.S./Israeli tensions with Iran), Lumumba portrays Iran as a resilient victim of aggression that has "won" morally, militarily, and in propaganda against U.S./Israeli efforts. He highlights U.S./Israeli miscalculations, Iran's civilizational depth, economic resilience (oil, alliances with China/Russia), and refusal to submit.
He discusses Iran's proxies (Hezbollah, Houthis, links to Gaza) mainly in the context of broader regional power struggles or resistance, not as terrorism. He avoids labeling Iran the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism (a designation long held by the U.S. and others due to funding/arming of groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and Shia militias responsible for attacks on civilians, U.S. forces, and allies).
Focus remains on U.S./Israeli "hypocrisy," lobbying influence, and regime-change motives rather than Iran's theocratic governance, domestic repression, nuclear ambitions, or proxy wars that destabilize the region.
He does not appear to "blindly avoid" it out of crude pandering alone, but as part of his consistent anti-imperialist framework. Iran fits neatly as a counterweight to U.S./Israeli power in this narrative. His audience (Pan-African, anti-Western circles) is often sympathetic to such views and includes Muslim listeners, but his core driver seems ideological consistency rather than pure audience capture. He has critiqued Islamic terrorism in Africa elsewhere, showing some nuance on the topic generally
Is This Bias "Unsettling the Muslim Audience" Favor?There is an element of audience alignment: Strong pro-Palestine/Iran-leaning stances are popular in parts of Africa and the Global South, where anti-Western sentiment runs high and solidarity with Palestine is widespread. Avoiding harsh criticism of Iran (or emphasizing its "resistance") earns applause in those circles.
However, reducing it to "good boy favor" oversimplifies. Lumumba's entire career is built on this anti-colonial worldview (drawing parallels to African independence struggles). It's selective application — harsh on Israel/West, softer on Iran/Russia/China-aligned actors — which is a common pattern in third-worldist or "campist" thinking.
In summary: Yes, he exhibits bias. His theories prioritize a narrative of imperial aggression over balanced analysis of agency, terrorism sponsorship (Iran's well-documented proxy support), or mutual threats. This doesn't make all his points invalid (e.g., critiques of endless wars or miscalculations have merit), but it undermines objectivity. Viewers should cross-reference with diverse sources for a fuller picture, including Iran's actions via proxies and Israel's security context. Lumumba is a skilled orator, but his Middle East takes are filtered through ideology.
@AtwoliDza@ilo he does not talk for us oppressed, A Kenyan earns 10k, pays rent 4k, matatu, 5.2k balance 800/- for food certainly impossible. minimum wage suppose to be 18k why are you sleeping on the job na hutoki hewani? come down now deal with this unfair practice.
@ElonMuskAOC@sama You know you’re on my platform, right? Ain't matter BADASS, this is a freedom platform no animal farm monkey business it is the white matter that dictates the flow.
Will ask him to buy me the same flowers everyweek for life and my lifetime is estimated to be over 148 years. The Badass will perhaps opt to give me a cybertruck insted. Clever is it not?
@WilliamsRuto why do we import food from a country at war -Ukrainne? Endless Economic war among Big Boys. The economy is in the hands of Tenderprenuers who pocket 2/3 of of Development treasury Budget. Fact there is no OMO, Brookside milk, Kensalt 1kg, 1 Cabbage is shared by 5HH in local shops
@ahmednasirlaw Perhaps a well known polished man of the bar would state otherwise describing them as kakistokratia humanoids rather not men were it not save the emblem.
@TheStarKenya Heeheee! Kenyans Kenyanised a DP of Somali what can't they do, and forget not we own Minnesota through duel citizenry. The devil has a diplomatic Kenyan passport hear that.
Therefore -:, Raila’s endorsement prevented a split that could have handed victory to Uhuru Kenyatta the Moi's caricature. It was seen as a mature, nation-first move to remove the long-ruling party. In the present circumstance who will it be the TOSHAMAN!
Yes, the core claim about putting Ruto in office is largely true based on 2022 election data and Mount Kenya's political role. https://t.co/uURNhKfTU4 2022 Kenyan presidential election, darling(WSR) of MT with Rigathi Gachagua defeated RAO.
KIBAKI TOSHA! Did Raila Mean It? Yes, at the time he clearly meant it strategically and tactically, for these main reasons:Unity against KANU/Moi — The opposition had repeatedly failed due to divisions. The real Toshaman was the late Simon Nyachae standing to be inaccurate.
@TheStarKenya Jaramogi O O was not known to be violent, though his preferred approach was ideological and organizational rather than physical. Proverbs 22:24-25: "Make no friendship with an angry man, and do not go with a furious man, lest you learn his ways and set a snare for your soul."
