Biafrans, Thank you all for your contributions on this great board.I am very confident that someday we will be free at last. When i read some of your postings and super responce to our distractors and haters, my heart tells me Biafra actualization is very really. We must not relent in this our just struggle. I am recommending to all Biafrans this book. " O JERUSALEM" by LARRY COLLINS AND DOMINIQUE LAPIERRE. This book can be purchased in any jewish store it is a book everyone of us MUST read. I call this book an inspiration for our struggle. If you can't find it in your area please get in touch with me. For those in Boston area you will find this book at the Jewish store in Randolf.

Sometime ago my guest, a childhood friend came to visit me with the book in reference by Bro. Chima. He kept reading this book at the least opportunity he had that I became curious. When I looked through the book I wanted to keep it so as to return it to him by mail later after he would have gone, but he refused as he could not part with the book. I need to buy one myself as I found it very fascinating.

sis. Amanda, and bro Ohafia Thanks for your response, the back cover of this book reads: HISTORY: HERE IS THE CLASSIC RETELLING OF THE SPELLBINDING EVENTS OF THE BIRTH OF ISREAL MOMENT BY MOMENT. COLLINS AND LAPIERRE WEAVE A BRILLIANT TAPESTRY OF SHATTERED HOPES, FIERCE PRIDE AND BREATHTAKING DARING AS THE ARABS, JEWS, AND BRITAIN COLLIDE IN THEIR FIGHT FOR CONTROL OF JERUSALEM. "O JERUSALEM" METICULUOSLY RECREATES THIS HISTORIC STRUGGLE. ----------------------------------------------This is what New york times book review says about this book: It reads like a whodunit, and you turn page after page to see what happens next...The pace is so swift, the drama so heightened by alternating flashes of tragedy and comedy that one has to stop frequently just to catch ones breath and marvel. ----------------------------------------------The LOS Angeles Times says : Moving, fascinating, informatative... No other book on this subject..comes close to O JERUSALEM. --------------------------------------------- This book gave me an insight of a people determined to have their own country inspite of all odds against them. For us we are on the ground, our home, our root, but for the Jews they had to struggle to return home. I hope the above will help you, sis. Amanda.

Chima: Thanks for introducing a book similar to the Biafran faith. I will check the book out in the Manitoba area. If not, I will have to order it through you.

Bro Chima, Thanks a lot. Yes, it was very helpful, indeed. I shall endeavor to corner one for my self. The case of Biafra nationhood actualization is the easiest of all the other nations seeking independence. How we go about it is the determining factor.
