China again? Let’s just make sure it’s a fair deal for Antigua and Barbuda.
Mi nah trust all dem foreign delegations, but me watching to see what come of it.
Molwyn been in this game long enough—he know how to move smart.
Not every shiny offer good. We must think long-term.
Deepening ties with China while America tightens screw on Antigua.
America is uncomfortable with the Chinese embassy in their backyard. China is to far away to defend Antigua when America decides to take control of Antigua.
The optics is not good…..
go sit in the corner and take your meds
I abhor that this so-called Health Minister Molwyn ‘AstraZeneca’ is still representing my country, after his tenancy during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Half-a-dozen countries in the early stages of the rollout of AstraZeneca banned this highly dangerous MANAGEMENT vaccine (including the makers in the UK), Molwyn Joseph continued to accept deliveries into Antigua & Barbuda – his current silence doesn’t cut it, after all he noise during Covid-19.
ONE DAY, HE MUST BE HELD TO ACCOUNT …
YOU will have to give an account to God in the judgment for your “abhor” towards any of your neighbours.
“Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.” ~1 John 3:15
“For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done” ~2 Corinthians 5:10
… And you @ Real Talk will have explain to God, why oh why you stayed silent while many Antiguans suffered at the hands of a weak Health Minister who just didn’t do his due diligence in protecting us from the harmful effects of these – now well documented – dangerous mRNA vaccines.
Joseph made a lot of noise about taking the AstraZeneca, and then mysteriously went silent.
Ask yourself why @ Real Talk?
As the the Holy Bible attests in Proverbs 27:12:
“The prudent see danger and take refuge, but the SIMPLE keep going and pay the penalty …”
SO JUST MOVE YOUR HOLLIER THAN THO SELF
I bet you’ve NEVER read the WHOLE Bible in its entirety (I’ve read twice from cover to cover), and you only follow the popular scriptures
Futhermore @ Real Talk, the Church has a terrible history of turning their backs when atrocities happen. You only have to look back at child abuse; the silence when slavery took place, and again the church stayed quiet.
So stop shooting the messenger and direct your religious furore at those sheep wearing wolves clothing. I’m going to pray 🙏🏾 that you’ll eventually find a discerning heart and mindset.
