discontent man like a snake trying to swallow an elephant

Was about turning my laptop off to sleep and i can came accross this old Thailand proverb about a discontent man. i closed my eyes for a split second (5 mins more likely) thinking about its usefulness and its practical implication. i thought about an article i read earlier today which talked about the "niger-delta" militants comparing themselves to David and the Government as Goliath.
David symbolizes meekness, confidence, strength and patience. Patience in which my niger-delta brethrens have run out off.
As a conflict analyst i can tell you in order for a crisis to be resolved, it needs to be tackled from the foundation. one cannot solve a problem by not knowing where it came from.
I could go far by saying what most of us has said in our minds but never spoken about the country being a cause of its existence or just go straight by blaiming our political leaders.
Economics would tell us that resources are scarce and the continuous struggle to gain these resources may lead to conflict, with this instance, one could say life is a continual process of conflict for these resources. but what if these resources are by no means scarce (as the case of Nigeria in the oil boom years of the 1970s)... tough call!!!!
i would love to dwell on that thought, but i would tackle that in another blog asa my main focus now is a collection of thoughts on the Niger-Delta crisis.
Who is to blame for all the havoc? the government, companies, or chiefs?
my answer to that question always stands, does one know the particular broom stick that is most efficient? they all hold a part blame for the recent happenings which most people may call a war. the government has failed to provide the basic necessities or arrange a committee(which they are expert in doing to monitor the affairs at the rural areas), the companies has failed in their social responsibilitywhich hurts me so much and strongly believe is a root cause to the uneding disaster in our niger-delta and the chiefs have forgotten why they are appointed, they fail to be the voice of the common man.
if all these people have failed to fulfill their responsibility, and the common man has no clean water to drink because of a oil contamination in his river, and he is thinking of what the life of his children would be like in five years, the only thought that crawls through his head aside GOD WILL PROVIDE is REVOLT..as Karl Marx and Fredrich Engels noted in the Communist Manifesto.
"prolitarians have nothing to lose but their chains" they have a world to win.
