Haile Selassie said in his Christmas Broadcast to America,''I plead with you to remember in your prayers all those weak and endangered peoples who look to the flags of the free nations with confidence, hoping to discern the star which will announce their peace and future security''

If Haile Selassie put so much emphasis in the peace and security America has to offer, why are the people so afraid here, and what does he mean by 'hoping to discern the star which will announce their peace and future security'?

they are afraid because its AmeriKKKa just look at the number of schizophrenic people there are, the number of terrorist attacks and threats high school killers, gang bangers, assasins, child killers, paedophiles, rapists. And you have to live with that everyday of your life, and you live in fear of the govt too, you never know what they could do or the police. And also Amerikkka's foreign policy and long legacy of brutality and murder does not make it safe to live in the US. I don't blame pple for being afraid under those circumstances. His Majesty said that the people look to their leaders and to other leaders for peace and security because they need someone to trust if their own nation fails them. Look at Amerikkka, they have failed their own people and so the streets run amock with people who cannot trust their own govt to safeguard their lives. They had hope in Amerikka as The New World the home of liberalism, democracy and freedom and the Bill of Rights gives that promise on paper it seems like a symbol of peace and security but in reality look at the history and its just the opposite; the govt is racist, dictatorial and an international bully, some of the people are just crazy just waiting to explode and then on the outside world Amerikkka has enough enemies waiting to pounce at any given time. That's cause for real fear because them nah live by the principles His Majesty laid down when he spoke of humanity, collective security and true freedom.
Blessed
