Iconoclastes - Chronicles, 1943


Clearly the promises of the colony of British Guiana as expected in the independent nation of Guyana can only be accurately defined as unfulfilled.  Guyana has emerged as a Land of broken dreams, unsatisfied promises and retarded development. Guyana today is an absolute nightmare. Certainly, Guyana is not what I expected it would be in this era when I was excited by the attainment of political independence in May 1966. In fact, clearly, Iconoclastes could not fathom the decadence occurring in the Guyana society in this current times.
The columnist known by the nom-de-plume Iconoclastes was really an exceptional thinking human being.  Iconoclastes wrote fifty – two outstanding articles which were published in the Daily Chronicle newspapers in the Sunday editions issued for the year 1943. Every article but one is found on page two.  On April 25, 1943 the article is found on page five. Human intelligence demands improved conditions of life of the masses and the greater good man. Iconoclastes spoke volumes some seventy one years ago.  It is clear to any and every reasonable thinking human being to conclude that during the last seventy one years every governmental administration in the colony of British Guiana and the so-called independent nation of Guyana have failed the people and  colony and/or state. The mere fact that hundreds of thousands of Guyanese are beyond the geo-political boundaries of Guyana is a definitive exhibit of the failures of the occupants of the highest offices in the land. The global economy and financial markets are controlled by Khazarain Ashkenazi Zionists.  The Rothschild family is the helm of the global financial market.  The Rothschild family owns every central bank of every nation except those of Cuba, Iran and North Korea.
What was Iconoclastes’ understanding of the Global economy during 1943? What is the legal and/or European slave name of this most impressive and articulate human being? What has the people of Guyana accomplished since the days of Iconoclastes? All I ever hear is hot air – about the richness of the natural resources found in Guyana. I must have heard those and/or similar phrase while I dwelt in the womb.
Simply look at the titles of Iconoclastes’ fifty two articles found in the Sunday Chronicle, 1943 listed below. You will get an impress of this forward thinking unsung hero. Clearly, Iconoclastes is recommended reading for Guyanese and people of the Guyanese Diaspora who requires a sense of the struggles facing the people of British Guiana during 1943.
