Unicef provides something to think about in this holiday season

Unicef awarded the prize of 2009 photo of the year to the following entry:

The UNICEF Photo of the Year 2009 is part Johan Bävman’s series “Albino – In the shadow of the sun”. Ten-year-old Selina is one of about 150,000 albinos in Tanzania. Her body does not produce enough melanin. Her skin, hair and eyes therefore need special protection against the sun. Many people with albinism suffer from skin cancer or severe visual impairment. Their average life expectancy in countries such as Tanzania is 30 years. Due to the light color of their skin, they are stared at, ridiculed and ostracized. They are called “zeru zeru” – the children of the devil. The boarding school in Mwanza, Northern Tanzania, where the UNICEF Photo of the Year was taken, is surrounded by a 2m fence. Originally built for visually impaired children, the school has become a sanctuary for more than 100 albino children. Here they are protected by the police who patrol the area also at night. This became necessary since albinos in the region near Lake Victoria became target of unprecedented brutality about three years ago. They are mutilated and killed because their body parts are traditionally regarded and sold as talismans. Superstitious locals think they will help them to catch more fish in Lake Victoria or find gold and diamonds. According to official sources, more than 40 albinos have been murdered in Tanzania; the real numbers are likely to be higher, as many cases go unreported. Meanwhile the government started taking stronger action and it now looks as if violence against albinos is declining.

The girl on the left is blind, and is the best friend of the albino.  Perhaps Unicef thought that the simplistic message conveyed by this photo will play on heart strings, securing the Xmas boost in donations.  It certainly doesn’t elicit much sympathy on my part for the people of Africa, though.  But maybe the message is more subtle: support us, make sure these people have good living conditions in Africa, otherwise they’re coming your way to turn you into talismans.  As bad as things are in the West, they can get much worse.  And unwitting do-gooders produce propaganda for our cause.  Let us count our blessings, this holiday season.  I wish everyone at MR a Merry Christmas!

“it now looks as if violence against albinos is declining.”  (—from the log entry)

That’s because there are no Albino murderers left in Tanzania — they’re all over here collecting welfare checks, sporting a white girlfriend on each arm and a mulatto baby in a dozen white wombs each, so they no longer need the cash, the good luck charms, the love potions, or the fertility charms they used to turn Albino body parts into.  Thanks the their Jewish importers the Albino body parts industry is going the way of the buggy whip makers — who needs Albino body parts when, if you’re a Sub-Saharan, you have the U.S. Jews to satisfy your every desire (using shiksas for the purpose, mainly blonde ones)?

The best gift the West could receive is the long overdue announcement that the UN will be dissolved by the 31st of December.

Merry Xmas to you, Dasein.

@Al Ross

It is the West that created the UN and before that the League of Nations and run it’s organisations primarily by Britain and the US.
