THE DIE IS CAST.

The English speaking peoples of the United States have just relinquished another bulwark position to those who pretended to owe allegiance to the Constitution on which the laws of the nation were based, while their real desires were in the hope that they would regain what they historically lost, in terms of land possessions and prestige in the past; and had their culture relegated, not into the background, but farther south beyond the Rio Grande, diminutively and insensitively called south of the border.

Yesterday would be remembered as "Capitulation Day", which would only encourage a certain group of people bent on making the United States of America a non-English domain, civically and culturally. Yet, not that America was under any foreign rule or domination, it has, by all means, thrived over the centuries on the basic tenets of an ancestral stock and breed, as well as a set of laws that sustained its institutions, and have been the fabric of the foundation of a "New Nation in the New World".

Those traditions were in keeping with the ties and bonds that had their roots from across the Atlantic Ocean, and had been the bedrock of the colonials, and had helped them greatly to found a nation of their own.

In other words, the use of traditions, vestiges of language and art, lay in the foundation of a society that would remain in perpetuity, as the founders envisaged; and it would be the pride of those who would come from behind, to protect and defend it always, against all odds, enemies included.

Of course, the U.S. was part of the Continent of North America, but it has been carved out to have its very own identity and wellness, of which liberty and justice were its pillars. It would, however, be negligent to assume that nobody else had assisted in building it into the "fortress" and the powerful nation that it was now.

The Indentured slaves had played a part, the East European Exodus and that of the Middle East have had a hand in its making, and the African Slave trade also contributed tremendously.

It was only the parasitic element who yearned to say that the land belonged to their ancestors, and they would "invade" and claim it, if they ever had the chance. Well, giving them high positions, as the one of a justice of the Supreme Court, was a step in the right direction for them. They would turn everything around, if they had their way. "Damn the Founding Fathers", they would say.

Those of us who were African-Americans would never want that to happen, the reason being that there was nothing enviable, socially, politically and economically, down on the south of the U.S. border. Besides, most of us were used to the English language, and nothing else would be satisfactory, except the old American way and traditions in which we were brought up.

"The die is cast"; thanks to people like Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, who cast their votes against the truth. They would sleep soundly, even though their individual conscience bothered them so much.
