商品描述

Cush To Mysterious Babylon: African and the Covenant People takes you on an enlightening journey through Africa's rich history, and how it has shaped the world we know today. Uncover the tumultuous past of a continent, where the pursuit of power and riches through European colonization set off a brutal cycle of violence and oppression. This eye-opening book lifts the veil on the dark side of colonialism, shedding light on horrific events like Namibia's early 20th-century genocide and the vicious exploitation witnessed during Africa's scramble. Explore the role of Africa's Cush and the Kushites in Biblical prophecies found in the book of Daniel, Isaiah, and the Apocalypses of Revelation.

As Africa's resources transformed into coveted treasures, battles erupted, trapping countless innocent lives in their midst. The British Commonwealth clashed with Nazi Germany in North Africa, resulting in merciless bloodshed. The United States, horrified by the ongoing carnage, joined the fray - forcing Africans back under the yoke of colonial rule.

World Wars I and II showcased the devastating effects of psychological warfare as media propagated tales of mutilation, rape, and wanton killing. Propaganda became a deadly weapon targeting people based on race, ethnicity, and religion. When the dust settled, post-war Germany had no choice but to surrender its colonies - altering African perceptions and kindling their desire for liberation.

Retrace Africa's turbulent history to 1866 when diamonds were discovered in Kimberley, South Africa. The "Big Hole" symbolized pitiless mining practices that paved the way for global mining giants like De Beers and Kimberley mines. The subsequent gold rush in Gauteng Province heightened tensions between Dutch settlers and British colonizers - culminating in Britain's dominion over resource-rich territories.


商品描述(中文翻譯)

《從神秘的巴比倫到庫什:非洲與契約之民》帶領讀者踏上一段啟蒙之旅,探索非洲豐富的歷史以及它如何塑造了我們今天所熟知的世界。揭開這片大陸動盪不安的過去,其中歐洲殖民主義追求權力和財富引發了一個殘酷的暴力和壓迫循環。這本令人大開眼界的書籍揭示了殖民主義的黑暗面,闡明了像納米比亞20世紀初的種族滅絕和非洲瓜分時期所見的惡劣剝削等可怕事件。探索非洲庫什和庫施人在《但以理書》、以賽亞書和《啟示錄》中的聖經預言中的角色。

隨著非洲的資源變成令人垂涎的寶藏,戰爭爆發,無數無辜的生命陷入其中。英聯邦與納粹德國在北非發生衝突,結果造成無情的流血。美國對持續的屠殺感到震驚,加入了戰爭,迫使非洲人重新受制於殖民統治。

第一次和第二次世界大戰展示了心理戰爭的毀滅性影響,媒體宣傳了殘忍的殺戮、強姦和無差別殺戮的故事。宣傳成為一種致命的武器,以種族、種族和宗教為基礎來打擊人們。當塵埃落定時,戰後的德國別無選擇,只能放棄其殖民地,改變了非洲人的觀念,點燃了他們對解放的渴望。

追溯非洲動盪的歷史至1866年南非金伯利發現鑽石的時候。這個「大坑」象徵著無情的採礦方式,為德比爾斯和金伯利礦等全球採礦巨頭鋪平了道路。接著在豪登省發生的淘金熱加劇了荷蘭殖民者和英國殖民者之間的緊張關係,最終導致英國對資源豐富的領土的統治。
