most of the comments here are making fun of the old weapons.....it doesn't matter if the guns are old, the important thing is.....is that it can still kill a man.
@@emelen123jamesula2 Yeah I have a Winchester 1892 and it's obsolete just like the lee Enfield rifles some of these guys have. Many modern hunting rifles are based off the mauser 1898 but that doesn't mean it isn't obsolete for combat. Just because a certain design is still used today doesn't mean it isn't obsolete, just in case you aren't smart nuff to know.
@@emelen123jamesula2 says the person isn't smart, spell "enough" as "enuff" or rather worse and far stupider yet, "snuff....." gg guy. that isn't the Winchester 94, that looks more like a cap-lock due to that little hammer at the very back of the receiver.
The body language of these guys is all pretending to act tough. Swinging their weapons around like theyre kids with toy guns in the playground. "This is the frontline of guadalcanal militancy" "Hi I'm here for the meeting" *Sergeant looks to mate for support* "I ur... I'll tell the boys that... I mean you can proceed. Or ...ehh... you'll have to come back here."
This was 20 years ago. Im sure that Solomon Island was thriving til this B.S happen. I remember as 9 year old watching bullets flying at night, my family was stuck in the middle of all this. It was a scary experience my parents were almost up everynight checking if everything was alright. I do vaguely remember a time when we when for a drive to pick food supplies. And basically got robbed of all our food, one militant pointed a gun on my fathers head and im sure he was going to pull the trigger. But heard us screaming at the back seat. Anyways, Solomon islands is still a beautiful country but full of baggages (corruption). Theres my 2 cent for the day.
On August 8th 1942, my dad as part of the 1st U.S Marine Division lost his left eye and about half of his ear on the same side. They're somewhere on the Western side of Guadalcanal .... He'd love to have 'em back if anybody comes across them.
We found it, and returned it. we fed it to a fish, which was eaten by another fish, then another, you were served them from the fish & chip shop last time you purchased. did you not notice. the extra flavour and crunch. your welcome.
These armed blokes are a joke, they have absolutely no idea of what they're doing and point their weapons all over the place even whilst they're just standing there pretending to be Larry large pants. They're a serious danger to everyone, including themselves and their mates....... they wouldn't last 5 minutes in a proper firefight.
Don't want to get political but this is the real reason why they try so hard to enforce gun laws. It only takes some basic weapons, bravery and determination to defy the government.
The main cause of this civil war between Malaita and Guadalcanal was Australia. Before the civil war SI's economy was very strong, and Australia want to get rid of this to ramain the economic superpower in the Pacific. It is Australian government who influence the corrupt government of Solomon islands and use Guadalcanal politicians to influence their uneducated people to fight Malaitans. During the height of the civil war all the foreign investors went back to their countries and the SI's economy was collapsed and SI was declared a fail state cos thats what Australian government want. After that then Australia form the regional assistant mission to SI called RAMSI to bring the peace again. Very smart Australia isn't it?. But many people loss their lives and many became psychologically affected from this coup.
And what do you think the USA does? Look how USA is trying hard to prevent China from becoming the new powerhouse. UK and USA had their day. Now China is moving up.
You're rightx this Australian report making it seem like it's just some sort of cultural issues between Guale and Malaitan ppl is ridiculous. Cultural differences don't lead to economic collapse, the idea that it could is just Australians using racist ideas about "backwards islanders" to hide the problems they've caused.
What can Australia do to the family of the late great leader Ulufa'alu for his sacrifices of his family and career for building up the country's economy ,l think Australia is a bit in human here ,?
Learnt from watching a lot of movies as they have nothing to do, jobless and little to no education. Ask them to write what they have just said and the response will be, "me no savvy."
True, but Enfield's do bring down moose. But they are better than cap and ball. Cap and ball killed how many in USA civil war? When fighting as they are, you use what is available.
Emelen123 Jamesula Sure, and no doubt the Enfield is a formidable bolt action rifle, but saying they fight a war with modern weapons is a clear indication of low quality journalism and story telling.
Reminds me of the tribal fighting in PNG. Tribe vs tribe with death tolls in the hundreds due to Military weapons' being used. Often the weapons are acquired via the drug trade.
he means his historic and ethnic ties to the land, the british colonists fucked up there way of life and now they have to live accordingly to alien rule.
The land was stolen by British, then they announced their law and said these are the ways land will be dealt with. What he is saying is we have our own methods and you forcing your ways on us is not acceptable.
If I were a there, I'd like to spend a night in the camps of both groups, to see and hear what they really think and how they behave off camera. I know that people behave a certain way or censor themselves in the presence of the media, so what you see on camera may not reflect what they really thing or how they behave off camera.
You can't just write off what people say because they are in front a a freakin camera. It's insane to think such a way. You have to give people the benefit of the doubt until they show you a pattern of disingenuousness and show you what they say are lies. That is such a broad statement too. People are individuals, not everyone thinks in black and white or are dishonest.
Absolutely right people lie infront of cancers so media can believe what they say and fir the world to see them that they are right! The people of Guadalcanal Guadalcanal have every rights fir their lands to claim and fight against those who claim their lands. It is wrong for other oeopke on other Islanders of Solomons to do that. They just greedybdont have respects to others. They have their land and big Island of Mataita should developed it to get what they want $$$$. You just dont go to Guadalcanal landowners to do such to kill innocent people to get money or land. Like normads scattered all over Solomons and rely on other provinces and yet other provinces work hard on their provinces to better themselves. All it is is spooky by donors ir free funds from govt. Maybe itbisbtime they open their eyes or look outside their boxes and start making hands dirty working hard like other provinces to be able to get or achieve what they want. Never use a whitemans weapon guns to get what you want that is totally disgrace, cowardness, disgusting, proudness as they try to shield and hide their real identity and behaviours. Noone in Whoke Nation is going to put up with that sort of behaviours nor attitudes. Stabboness does not get you anywhere. People need Jesus in their lives to live in peace, loving others respecting and humbleness is a great thing to have in life to be able to get what you want or need.

@@mkvenner2 apparently now the gov made a deal with china and Malaita islanders are not happy with it. The last opposing minister was voted out with no confidence yesterday and there was already protests about that
@@Left4Red the islanders admit to selling their land several times in the documentary, these people are too stupid to maintain it anyways so what does it matter.
Everyone saying those arent modern guns are entirely missing the point and exposing maturity. Why is that the main take away? The point the presenter was making is that these land issues have been happening for hundreds of years except now modern weapons are involved. It's not America where you can buy guns anywhere, you have to make do with what you get, which means improvise and repair. For those wondering the Australian Military stepped in and helped with peace talks and the fighting stopped in 2004.
Most of the Solomon islands GDP went to Investors anyways because most of the industries facilities, productions and processing plaint, farms fields in the Solomon are privately owns by investment firms, not the Solomon government and neither sides understands this. Instead of going after the financials interest that stole both side lands, the wealthy landowners for examples, both side are going after each other common people's.
Both sides equips with SR88A rifles plus Ultimax 100 Mk3,Australia SLR L1A1 & SLR L2A1 and FN MAG 58 only few equips with this modern weapon and majority are homemade guns.
David Anderson it’s much more peaceful now. However, our govt is really corrupt and development is slow, thus not many opportunities. Theres still a high number of unemployed youth and over the years, there’s been riots due to various reasons, of whom the unemployed youth are usually the culprits. Other than that, we are in a much better state!
$180,000,000 Solomon Islands Dollars equals about $22,000,000 USA dollars. Solomon GDP is about 1.3 billion USA dollars the government budget is $461,484,693 Maybe the government could pay $22 million to the Militan Eagles Paramilitary ?
Imagine filming an action sequence montage with a Warband of Pacific Islander tribal guerilla fighters. Some of them don't even look like they know how their guns work.
Thank you; your documentary was very informative. I am sorry for all the Solomon Islanders. I got to know them as loving and caring people. Get rid of the leaders on both sides. They don't have your interest in mind, only their pockets. I know; I have been there.
The original overstayers would be dead now, the new generation would of been born there. if born there, you belong there, if not, leave if not excepted.
GOD BLESSED AMERICA; God blessed America We in the United States and Canada have been greatly blessed by God Almighty. We have lived in a beautiful land, a land of freedom and prosperity. God has blessed us with plenty of food even to the point of surplus. We have lovely lakes and forests and mountains. We can go north and ski and can go south and enjoy tropical beaches. God Almighty has blessed North America probably more than any continent on earth. And how do we show our thankfulness? How do we show our appreciation for all the good he has done for us and given us? We thank God by slaughtering little babies. We show God our appreciation for His many blessings on our land by rebelling against His word and allowing, and promoting men to marry men and women to marry women. We condone and promote all kinds of filth including adultery, fornication, stealing, cheating, drunkenness, greed and idolatry (bowing down to statues). We promote rebellion against God to our own destruction. We not only do all these evil things that God hates, but have pleasure seeing them done. We pay money to promote Hellywood (Hollywood) filth and allow it to be spewed out upon our young. Even our so-called religious leaders refer to the evil movie trade in their sermons, condoning, not correcting and rebuking. We have not only turned our back on God but we have defied Him openly. We have elected whoremongers and adulterers and baby killers and sodomites and idolaters to public offices. We have pleasure in their actions and approve them by our vote. Kill more babies! Whore around more, commit more adultery, get drunk and act like whores and pimps and bow down to statues: we love to see it, and want to do the same! And the children we don’t murder we want to grow up to be filthy baby killing whoremongers and liars, and drunks, and sodomites, and idolatrous rebels against God just as we are. Shame on you! Shame on America! Do you have sense enough to heed God’s warnings? “These horrors will serve as a sign and warning among you and your descendants forever.47 If you do not serve the LORD your God with joy and enthusiasm for the abundant benefits you have received,48 you will serve your enemies whom the LORD will send against you. You will be left hungry, thirsty, naked, and lacking in everything. The LORD will put an iron yoke on your neck, oppressing you harshly until he has destroyed you.49 The LORD will bring a distant nation against you from the end of the earth ( Muslim)?, and it will swoop down on you like a vulture. It is a nation whose language you do not understand,50 a fierce and heartless nation that shows no respect for the old and no pity for the young. Its armies will devour your livestock and crops, and you will be destroyed. They will leave you no grain, new wine, olive oil, calves, or lambs, and you will starve to death. They will attack your cities until all the fortified walls in your land-the walls you trusted to protect you-are knocked down. They will attack all the towns in the land the LORD your God has given you. The siege and terrible distress of the enemy’s attack will be so severe that you will eat the flesh of your own sons and daughters, whom the LORD your God has given you.54 The most tenderhearted man among you will have no compassion for his own brother, his beloved wife, and his surviving children.55 He will refuse to share with them the flesh he is devouring-the flesh of one of his own children-because he has nothing else to eat during the siege and terrible distress that your enemy will inflict on all your towns. The most tender and delicate woman among you-so delicate she would not so much as touch the ground with her foot-will be selfish toward the husband she loves and toward her own son or daughter.57 She will hide from them the afterbirth and the new baby she has borne, so that she herself can secretly eat them. She will have nothing else to eat during the siege and terrible distress that your enemy will inflict on all your towns.58 “If you refuse to obey all the words of instruction that are written in this book, and if you do not fear the glorious and awesome name of the LORD your God,59 then the LORD will overwhelm you and your children with indescribable plagues. These plagues will be intense and without relief, making you miserable and unbearably sick.60 He will afflict you with all the diseases of Egypt that you feared so much, and you will have no relief. The LORD will afflict you with every sickness and plague there is, even those not mentioned in this Book of Instruction, until you are destroyed Though you become as numerous as the stars in the sky, few of you will be left because you would not listen to the LORD your God.63 Just as the LORD has found great pleasure in causing you to prosper and multiply, the LORD will find pleasure in destroying you. You will be torn from the land you are about to enter and occupy.64 For the LORD will scatter you among all the nations from one end of the earth to the other. There you will worship foreign gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known, gods made of wood and stone There among those nations you will find no peace or place to rest. And the LORD will cause your heart to tremble, your eyesight to fail, and your soul to despair.66 Your life will constantly hang in the balance. You will live night and day in fear, unsure if you will survive.67 In the morning you will say, ‘If only it were night!’ And in the evening you will say, ‘If only it were morning!’ For you will be terrified by the awful horrors you see around you.” Deuteronomy 28:46-67 Evil actions abound in our country and we are headed for destruction, and we keep on in our rebellion. Will we keep on doing evil and promoting evil in spite of God’s warnings? You just read what God said to Israel His chosen people. What do you think will happen to us? Anyone who knows the history of the Jews will know what God did to them for their sin against Him. How will we escape if God’s chosen did not? Look at Israel today do you think the wars and turmoil are accidents? Do you think our economic problems are accidents? Does the nuclear threat mean anything? If God is angry with us do you think we can win in a war against God, or the destroyer he sends to punish us? Don’t be fooled by political leaders who tell us we can change things by government policies, or a bigger army. Don’t be deceived by religious leaders who say we are ok as we are, and tell us just keep sending money to them. “Come, wild animals of the field! Come, wild animals of the forest! Come and devour my people!10 For the leaders of my people- the LORD’s watchmen, his shepherds- are blind and ignorant. They are like silent watchdogs that give no warning when danger comes. They love to lie around, sleeping and dreaming.11 Like greedy dogs, they are never satisfied. They are ignorant shepherds, all following their own path and intent on personal gain.12 “Come,” they say, “let’s get some wine and have a party. Let’s all get drunk. Then tomorrow we’ll do it again and have an even bigger party.” Isaiah 56:9-12 ( “What sorrow for those who say that evil is good and good is evil, that dark is light and light is dark, that bitter is sweet and sweet is bitter.21 What sorrow for those who are wise in their own eyes and think themselves so clever.” Isaiah 5:20-21 We were the land of the free and the home of the brave. Now we are slaves to sin and a home of cowardly baby killers, sodomites, and idolaters (people who kneel before statues and pray). Time is growing short for this country and for you personally. It is appointed unto man once to die then comes the judgment. Are you ready to meet God Almighty? If you do not repent and come to God through our one and only Saviour Jesus Christ you will be cast into the lake of fire and brimstone. And you will suffer unimaginable torment forever and ever. God has made a way of escape for you. Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life. Come to Christ today. Christ died for our sins He was buried and on the third day he was raised from the dead in the flesh. God loves you. Pray now draw close to God. I plead with you to make friends with God. Please come and be reconciled to your creator today. I write this message because I care for your eternal soul. As a fellow human being I do not want anyone to go to hell fires. I beg of you to repent now. May God almighty soften your heart. The Final Judgment “And I saw a great white throne and the one sitting on it. The earth and sky fled from his presence, but they found no place to hide.12 I saw the dead, both great and small, standing before God’s throne. And the books were opened, including the Book of Life. And the dead were judged And all were judged according to their deeds.14 Then death and the grave were thrown into the lake of fire. This lake of fire is the second death.15 And anyone whose name was not found recorded in the Book of Life was thrown into the lake of fire.”according to what they had done, as recorded in the books.13 The sea gave up its dead, and death and the grave gave up their dead.
But Colonization started this irrational terrorist war. If they allowed the Islanders to own small parcels of land the Natives could pay tax on it and it would be under the law of Solomon Island Police. They also could give the people Jobs and Schooling in Job Skills. True, the Island Rebels are ruining the Island and the Island's Economy but people born with nothing are easily brainwashed.
A people divided ..who and what is the root cause? Land and culture( ethnic tension) is the root cause.? Malaita versus Guadalcanal. People of malaita have no right to fight and kill Guadalcanal people about land. ( Compansation demnds within corrupt practices. Should make peaceful negotiations until reach peaceful conclusions. Eye open na manmade government system i😅s footstool and godly government system is on the throne. Unity of faith in Christ Jesus is the answer. Not about malaiita and Guadalcanal Province but about God's plan that really matters ❤❤
This struggle is 100% honorable. They don't want to eat the rich, they're not trying to take everything for themselves, they're not trying to pedal an ideology. They just want compensation for what was theirs.

Will the dude that stole Steins uniform please mail it back to the ADF?
Yeah..they must
Pirates from Far Cry 3. We now know where Far Cry 3 took place. :)
It actually located somewhere in Papua New guinea
wow they are so undiciplined, i saw at least 10 people pointing guns at their own people within the first 2 minutes
Anyone else notice the upside-down patch on the "leader"'s uniform?
chevrons
That’s the way the Australian army have them
was that guy driving with the front tyre fully flat? 17.10
Everyone saying those arent modern guns are entirely missing the point and exposing maturity. Why is that the main take away? The point the presenter was making is that these land issues have been happening for hundreds of years except now modern weapons are involved. It's not America where you can buy guns anywhere, you have to make do with what you get, which means improvise and repair. For those wondering the Australian Military stepped in and helped with peace talks and the fighting stopped in 2004.
Most of the Solomon islands GDP went to Investors anyways because most of the industries facilities, productions and processing plaint, farms fields in the Solomon are privately owns by investment firms, not the Solomon government and neither sides understands this.
Instead of going after the financials interest that stole both side lands, the wealthy landowners for examples, both side are going after each other common people's.
Ask yourself when they bought those guns , because those people arrived into ur home they left u with nothing but sorrow into ur family
Sound like what the American Indians went through.....
If you mean by selling the land to someone, regretting it and killing the buyers then yeah. Thats why the term indian giver exists.
Maybe the British leaving was a bad idea. Colonialism is better than this situation any day.
It is because of British, putting a different people with different cultures into one country.
so they have camo... but also have super bright red bandanas?
Those ones with Red bandanas are militants from Malaita province called the Malaita Eagle force fight against the Guadalcanal Liberation frontiers..
17:05 yo that tire needs some airrrrrrr
everyone gangsta till solomon islands raids
during this conflict i was 5 years old, and also victimizes of it.
Both sides equips with SR88A rifles plus Ultimax 100 Mk3,Australia SLR L1A1 & SLR L2A1 and FN MAG 58 only few equips with this modern weapon and majority are homemade guns.
They must be burning hot wearing full winter gear in africa like im worried
They aren’t in Africa
dumb comment from a so called civilised man hahaha
In the Pacific bro BUT burning hot the same🌞.
WHat's it like now I wonder? D.A> NYC
No checkpoints but still crime ridden.
David Anderson it’s much more peaceful now. However, our govt is really corrupt and development is slow, thus not many opportunities. Theres still a high number of unemployed youth and over the years, there’s been riots due to various reasons, of whom the unemployed youth are usually the culprits. Other than that, we are in a much better state!
martini hendry rifle cool lol such a eclectic mix of guns and modified as
Where the hell is this place?
Oceania...
$180,000,000 Solomon Islands Dollars equals about $22,000,000 USA dollars.
Solomon GDP is about 1.3 billion USA dollars the government budget is $461,484,693
Maybe the government could pay $22 million to the Militan Eagles Paramilitary ?
Guy with bally looks like BTEC version of ninja turtle
Only The Kingdom of true God is the solution all over the world.
One Governments one God one King Jesus Christ and the 144.000.
Ok but honestly their equipments is whack it goes from weapons the british used against the zulu to weapons from Vietnam
Ah yes, the martini Hentri rifle. Top of the market tech!
You stand a 100m away from your enemy and you call yourself a hero. Try fighting these men without your gun powder. It will be a different story!
omg i thought this was a new teenage mutant turtle movie when i saw the darn picture in the ads.. lmao sorry but not sorry
Decent reporting, a bit more sensitivity would have been nice, very troubling times.
"Modern weapons"??! They are fucking Dane Guns. What will the rules be, allow 45 minutes for reloading??
I'm With you fellers. You were there first.
good to se the good old english martini Henry still being used in modern times
Maybe left over from Rorke's Drift.? Front Rank!......Fire....!!
Those troops flagged the camera man so many times
Remember those terrible days well.
Sadly Solomon Islands is still no where near to peace since the Ethnic tension.
Imagine filming an action sequence montage with a Warband of Pacific Islander tribal guerilla fighters. Some of them don't even look like they know how their guns work.
Thank you; your documentary was very informative. I am sorry for all the Solomon Islanders. I got to know them as loving and caring people. Get rid of the leaders on both sides. They don't have your interest in mind, only their pockets. I know; I have been there.
I witnessed this Coupe in 1989
It was brewing before that, i deployed there with NZ Army in 88. A grenade attack had occurred on a Chinese owned club the week before we arrived.
@@wyliecelt damn dude
First thing i thought of was Farcry 3
glad i wasn't the only one who thought of farcry....lol
Yo, same here bro😂😂😂.
11:55 is putting on his mask. like do they have chemical weapons in there? 🙄
They barely seem to have ammo
TOYOTA. F*** YEA!
Toyota is number one selling 4x4, proven better that the outdated jeep.
The original overstayers would be dead now, the new generation would of been born there.
if born there, you belong there, if not, leave if not excepted.
I saw none of them with ammunition for their weapons
they are using shotguns and old bolt action rifles and a fucking flare gun. but i did not see one 50.cal rifle in that beatiful mix of weaponry
watching it in 2021, growing up there and now seeing story about it on aus tv. This is such fake news. so much bad acting.
GOD BLESSED AMERICA;
God blessed America We in the United States and Canada
have been greatly blessed by God Almighty.
We have lived in a beautiful land, a land of freedom and prosperity. God has blessed us with plenty of food even to the point of surplus. We have lovely lakes and forests and mountains.
We can go north and ski and can go south and enjoy tropical beaches.
God Almighty has blessed North America probably more than any continent on earth. And how do we show our thankfulness? How do we show our appreciation for all the good he has done for us and given us? We thank God by slaughtering little babies. We show God our appreciation for His many blessings on our land by rebelling against His word and allowing, and promoting men to marry men and women to marry women.
We condone and promote all kinds of filth including adultery, fornication, stealing, cheating, drunkenness, greed and idolatry (bowing down to statues).
We promote rebellion against God to our own destruction. We not only do all these evil things that God hates, but have pleasure seeing them done. We pay money to promote Hellywood (Hollywood) filth and allow it to be spewed out upon our young.
Even our so-called religious leaders refer to the evil movie trade in their sermons, condoning, not correcting and rebuking. We have not only turned our back on God but we have defied Him openly. We have elected whoremongers and adulterers and baby killers and sodomites and idolaters to public offices. We have pleasure in their actions and approve them by our vote.
Kill more babies! Whore around more, commit more adultery, get drunk and act like whores and pimps and bow down to statues: we love to see it, and want to do the same! And the children we don’t murder we want to grow up to be filthy baby killing whoremongers and liars, and drunks, and sodomites, and idolatrous rebels against God just as we are. Shame on you! Shame on America!
Do you have sense enough to heed God’s warnings?
“These horrors will serve as a sign and warning among you and your descendants forever.47 If you do not serve the LORD your God with joy and enthusiasm for the abundant benefits you have received,48 you will serve your enemies whom the LORD will send against you. You will be left hungry, thirsty, naked, and lacking in everything. The LORD will put an iron yoke on your neck, oppressing you harshly until he has destroyed you.49
The LORD will bring a distant nation against you from the end of the earth ( Muslim)?, and it will swoop down on you like a vulture. It is a nation whose language you do not understand,50 a fierce and heartless nation that shows no respect for the old and no pity for the young. Its armies will devour your livestock and crops, and you will be destroyed. They will leave you no grain, new wine, olive oil, calves, or lambs, and you will starve to death. They will attack your cities until all the fortified walls in your land-the walls you trusted to protect you-are knocked down. They will attack all the towns in the land the LORD your God has given you.
The siege and terrible distress of the enemy’s attack will be so severe that you will eat the flesh of your own sons and daughters, whom the LORD your God has given you.54 The most tenderhearted man among you will have no compassion for his own brother, his beloved wife, and his surviving children.55 He will refuse to share with them the flesh he is devouring-the flesh of one of his own children-because he has nothing else to eat during the siege and terrible distress that your enemy will inflict on all your towns.
The most tender and delicate woman among you-so delicate she would not so much as touch the ground with her foot-will be selfish toward the husband she loves and toward her own son or daughter.57 She will hide from them the afterbirth and the new baby she has borne, so that she herself can secretly eat them. She will have nothing else to eat during the siege and terrible distress that your enemy will inflict on all your towns.58 “If you refuse to obey all the words of instruction that are written in this book, and if you do not fear the glorious and awesome name of the LORD your God,59 then the LORD will overwhelm you and your children with indescribable plagues.
These plagues will be intense and without relief, making you miserable and unbearably sick.60 He will afflict you with all the diseases of Egypt that you feared so much, and you will have no relief. The LORD will afflict you with every sickness and plague there is, even
those not mentioned in this Book of Instruction, until you are destroyed
Though you become as numerous as the stars in the sky, few of you will be left because you would not listen to the LORD your God.63 Just as the LORD has found great pleasure in causing you to prosper and multiply, the LORD will find pleasure in destroying you. You will be torn from the land you are about to enter and occupy.64 For the LORD will scatter you among all the nations from one end of the earth to the other. There you will worship foreign gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known, gods made of wood and stone
There among those nations you will find no peace or place to rest. And the LORD will cause your heart to tremble, your eyesight to fail, and your soul to despair.66 Your life will constantly hang in the balance. You will live night and day in fear, unsure if you will survive.67 In the morning you will say, ‘If only it were night!’ And in the evening you will say, ‘If only it were morning!’ For you will be terrified by the awful horrors you see around you.” Deuteronomy 28:46-67
Evil actions abound in our country and we are headed for destruction, and we keep on in our rebellion. Will we keep on doing evil and promoting evil in spite of God’s warnings?
You just read what God said to Israel His chosen people. What do you think will happen to us? Anyone who knows the history of the Jews will know what God did
to them for their sin against Him. How will we escape if God’s chosen did not? Look at Israel today do you think the wars and turmoil are accidents? Do you think our economic problems are accidents? Does the nuclear threat mean anything?
If God is angry with us do you think we can win in a war against God, or the destroyer he sends to punish us? Don’t be fooled by political leaders who tell us we can change things by government policies, or a bigger army. Don’t be deceived by religious leaders who say we are ok as we are, and tell us just keep sending money to them.
“Come, wild animals of the field! Come, wild animals of the forest! Come and devour my people!10 For the leaders of my people- the LORD’s watchmen, his shepherds- are blind and ignorant. They are like silent watchdogs that give no warning when danger comes. They love to lie around, sleeping and dreaming.11 Like greedy dogs, they are never satisfied. They are ignorant shepherds, all following their own path and intent on personal gain.12 “Come,” they say, “let’s get some wine and have a party. Let’s all get drunk. Then tomorrow we’ll do it again and have an even bigger party.” Isaiah 56:9-12 (
“What sorrow for those who say that evil is good and good is evil, that dark is light and light is dark, that bitter is sweet and sweet is bitter.21 What sorrow for those who are wise in their own eyes and think themselves so clever.” Isaiah 5:20-21
We were the land of the free and the home of the brave. Now we are slaves to sin and a home of cowardly baby killers, sodomites, and idolaters (people who kneel before statues and pray). Time is growing short for this country and
for you personally. It is appointed unto man once to die then comes the judgment. Are you ready to meet God Almighty?
If you do not repent and come to God through our one and only Saviour Jesus Christ
you will be cast into the lake of fire and brimstone. And you will suffer unimaginable torment forever and ever. God has made a way of escape for you. Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life. Come to Christ today.
Christ died for our sins He was buried and on the third day he was raised from the dead in the flesh. God loves you. Pray now draw close to God. I plead with you to make friends with God. Please come and be reconciled to your creator today. I write this message because I care for your eternal soul. As a fellow human being I do not want anyone to go to hell fires. I beg of you to repent now. May God almighty soften your heart.
The Final Judgment
“And I saw a great white throne and the one sitting on it. The earth and sky fled from his presence, but they found no place to hide.12 I saw the dead, both great and small, standing before God’s throne. And the books were opened, including the Book of Life. And the dead were judged And all were judged according to their deeds.14 Then death and the grave were thrown into the lake of fire. This lake of fire is the second death.15 And anyone whose name was not found recorded in the Book of Life was thrown into the lake of fire.”according to what they had done, as recorded in the books.13 The sea gave up its dead, and death and the grave gave up their dead.
A few kava meetings and appropriate mokas are the only thing that will sort this out...
same year when fiji had their second 3rd coup lead by George Speight
Dayum! I thought Fiji was soo fu***d up, but Solomons is on another level
If you think that's messed up y'all should check out PNG 🥲
Puting on camouflage jst to shoot this video...
sometimes colonization isn't such a bad thing?
But Colonization started this irrational terrorist war. If they allowed the Islanders to own small parcels of land the Natives could pay tax on it and it would be under the law of Solomon Island Police. They also could give the people Jobs and Schooling in Job Skills. True, the Island Rebels are ruining the Island and the Island's Economy but people born with nothing are easily brainwashed.
why do you think these things happened
Exactly what is happening now in Nigeria in 2022.
Ok, I'm waiting for the mention of what resources are here.... Ahhhhhhhh! I just heard gold! Next...
Oil I think
A people divided ..who and what is the root cause?
Land and culture( ethnic tension) is the root cause.? Malaita versus Guadalcanal.
People of malaita have no right to fight and kill Guadalcanal people about land. ( Compansation demnds within corrupt practices. Should make peaceful negotiations until reach peaceful conclusions. Eye open na manmade government system i😅s footstool and godly government system is on the throne. Unity of faith in Christ Jesus is the answer. Not about malaiita and Guadalcanal Province but about God's plan that really matters ❤❤
This struggle is 100% honorable. They don't want to eat the rich, they're not trying to take everything for themselves, they're not trying to pedal an ideology. They just want compensation for what was theirs.
Says modern guns and shows WW2 crap
Doesn't matter bruh, a bullet is still a bullet, doesn't matter which error in comes from, they still deadly and lethal
Why the thumbnail guy looks like rafaelo from ninja turtles
