it is
the fundamental observation
around the world
.. from one generation to another ..
.. at all levels of society ..
that
the way and manner
someone does his/her thing
often
impacts on
.. and reflects in/on ..
the results/responses
that
he/she gets
Beyonce, eefeh artuh nm
Beyonce ife atu nm
i guess this is
some sort of
continuing stuff
to the stuff
i posted at
one of your internet pages
at a website
back in the day
( .. was that may be
2012 ?
2013 ?
2014 ?
2015 ?
or thereabouts ?
i.e
was that
as at today
circa September 2024
2024 – 2015 = 9 years ago ?
2024 – 2014 = 10 years ago ?
2024 – 2013 = 11 years ago ?
2024 – 2012 = 12 years ago ?
or thereabouts ?
.. )
in which
i mentioned
some stuff about
warriors and codes of honour
and some stuff along those lines.
continuing forwards
from
that basal point
to the subject matter of this post
.. as indicated in the post title ..
and
going straight to the nitty gritty,
very briefly
and shooting straight from the hip :
Beyonce ornyeh artuh nm,
Beyonce onye atum,
this subject matter may
take quite some time
extending into
weeks,
months
and maybe
years
if
we want to do exhaustive,
comprehensive,
detailed,
all encompassing work
on the subject.
very frankly, i am not all sure i am inclined that way.
and
i am not at all sure that
this forum is structured to accommodate
my hitting the points, if any,
as point-blank,
as head-on
as i would
in a more confidential,
more private
.. more privatized ..
forum.
having laid out the
ground structure
of the terrain
we are operating in
( .. as far as i can understand it i.e as far as i can see it .. ),
Beyonce nnmah nm ( nma nm ) ( nma m ) ( nmam ) :
(1) ATTACKS ARE ESSENTIALLY A REALITY OF LIFE
life is a continuum from the moment of birth to the moment of death.
in the interim period
folks interact with other folks.
some of these other folks
at one point or the other
will launch an offensive.
it may be at
the work place
or
business environment
or
earlier in life
e.g
during the secondary school days or primary school days or university days
or
later in life
e.g
during the generally acknowledged retirement years
but at something point or the other
a folk will have an offensive launched at him/her.
(2) VIRTUALLY EVERY ONE
WHO IS ALIVE
GOES THROUGH
i.e
RECEIVES
ATTACKS
AT ONE POINT OR THE OTHER
IN LIFE
this follows logically as a direct corollary from (1) above
(3) THE ATTACKS MAY BE
ONE-OFF
OR
NUMEROUS
OR
OCCASIONAL
OR
PERIODIC
OR
RECURRENT
this particular reality varies
from one individual to another
and
from one group of folks to another group of folks.
(4) THE ATTACKS
MAY COME FROM
SOME ENTITY THAT IS KNOWN TO THE FOLK(S) BEING ATTACKED
OR
FROM SOME ENTITY THAT IS NOT KNOWN TO THE FOLK(S) BEING ATTACKED
whatever the reality
in the particular case in point under consideration,
attacks are not done in a vacuum
and
are not targeted at empty air.
this implies that
the attacker is aware of i.e has some awareness of the folk being attacked
even if
the folk being attacked has no awareness of the attacker
and
the attack comes as an unforseen unanticipated assault upon the attacked entity.
usually,
this also implies
that
the entity attacking knows FULL WELL what he/she/it/they are doing.
this holds
whether
the attack is a premeditated, well planned, thoroughly plotted attack
or
whether
it is a spontaneous, instinctive reaction to a trigger.
(5) THE ATTACKS
MAY COME FROM
SOME ENTITY THAT
THE FOLK(S) BEING ATTACKED
EXPECTS .. KNOWS .. GUESSES
MAY OR WILL OR CAN ATTACK THE FOLK
AND/OR
THE ATTACKS MAY COME FROM
SOME ENTITY THAT
THE FOLK(S) BEING ATTACKED NEVER EXPECTED .. NEVER GUESSED MAY OR WILL OR CAN EVER ATTACK THE FOLK(S)
this is essentially self-explanatory.
e.g
a husband or wife
may or may not expect that
a wife or husband can
shoot at him/her with a loaded rifle.
(6) WHATEVER FORMAT OR MODALITY THE ATTACK COMES IN,
THE FOLKS BEING ATTACKED
HAVE AND HOLD
THE RIGHT TO DEFEND THEMSELVES
AND TO PROTECT THEMSELVES.
this is fundamental.
any folk(s) that do not defend themselves may not survive.
any folk(s) that do not protect themselves may not survive.
if by any means
( .. where they do not defend themselves and do not protect themselves .. )
they one way or the other survive the attacks
the attacker(s) may relaunch the attacks
.. possibly with more potency.
where the attacker(s) over-power or over-run them,
their subsequent existence is at the determination and instance of the attacker.
the attacker may not be a benevolent conqueror
and the attacked folk(s) may thus thenceforth
lead the life of
ill-treated, sorely-used, vanquished captives/minions.
in the instances where the attacked folk(s) is/are so vastly superior to the attacker that
they brush off the attacker and the attacks as inconsequential irritants,
the continuosly present danger
is that
the attackers may acquire increased lethality
and launch an attack that could be devastating.
it thus also behoves even the strong to protect themselves
not only from the strong entities
or from stronger entities
but also from less strong entities.
this is buttressed in the possibility that
a less strong entity
can enter into an agreement with
a strong entity
or
a stronger entity
and then
together launch a devastating offensive.
(7) THE MANNER i.e THE WAY
IN WHICH and BY WHICH
AN ENTITY THAT IS ATTACKED ( OR BEING ATTACKED )
RESPONDS
TO ATTACK(S)
IMPACTS ON
WHETHER OR NOT
THE ENTITY THAT IS ATTACKED SURVIVES.
(8) AN ENTITY THAT IS ATTACKED ( .. OR BEING ATTACKED .. )
WILL DO WELL
TO UNDERSTAND
(A) THE SOURCE OF THE ATTACK
sometimes the real attacker is not overt or visible.
in these types of scenarios
the attacker launches the offensives through other entities
and remains himself/herself/itself/themselves hidden .. covert .. camouflaged.
as in instances where the attacker is overt and identifiable,
determining who the real attacker is
( .. in instances where the real attacker is hidden or camouflaged .. )
aids
in a better understanding of
the motives of the attack
and
in fashioning a response
that can
effectively counter the attacks and the attackers.
(B) THE OBJECTIVE / TARGET OF THE ATTACK
folks who attack
have
a motive and an objective
i.e
something they seek to achieve or accomplish.
even in instances of rape,
the rapist has an objective .. a target .. a purpose.
at the very least,
the purpose may be carnal knowledge of the victim
– – achieved even if by force or with violence.
the objective of the attack
often
determines and impacts on
how ruthless the attacker can or will be.
(C) THE STRENGTHS, CAPABILITIES, OPPORTUNITIES, WEAKNESSES OF THE ATTACKER
this is
very important
and
very critical to
the entity attacked
( .. or being attacked .. )
as
such knowledge assists greatly in
fashioning out a response and/or responses that can :
(i) survive the attacks with minimal damage
(ii) halt / stop the attacks
(iii) launch a counter offensive
(iv) neutralize the attacker and the attacks.
(D) THE METHODOLOGY OF THE ATTACK AND THE ATTACKER
AND
POSSIBLE VARIATIONS THAT MAY BE DEPLOYED BY THEM TO ACHIEVE THEIR OBJECTIVE
this is critical to surviving the attacks.
under-rating the strengths of the attacker is dangerous.
under-rating the wickedness of the attacker
i.e
under-rating the extent can go to
i.e how far the attacker can go
in his/her/their destructiveness / wickedness is dangerous.
(9) FOLKS WHO ARE ( BEING ) ATTACKED
WILL DO VERY WELL TO UNDERSTAND
THEIR CIRCUMSTANCE IN FRAY
COMPARATIVE TO / RELATIVE TO
THEIR ATTACKER(S)
IN TERMS OF
CAPACITY/CAPABILITY FOR CONFRONTATION
usually folks that are attacked fall into one of 3 categories, viz :
CATEGORY 1.
FOLKS WHO ARE ATTACKED
AND HAVE
INFERIOR CAPACITY / INFERIOR CAPABILITY
COMPARATIVE TO / RELATIVE TO
THEIR ATTACKER(S)
CATEGORY 2.
FOLKS WHO ARE ATTACKED
AND HAVE
EQUAL CAPACITY / EQUAL CAPABILITY
COMPARATIVE TO / RELATIVE TO
THEIR ATTACKER(S)
CATEGORY 3.
FOLKS WHO ARE ATTACKED
AND HAVE
SUPERIOR CAPACITY / SUPERIOR CAPABILITY
COMPARATIVE TO / RELATIVE TO
THEIR ATTACKER(S)
it is dangerous to the survival of the folks that are (being) attacked
for
them to
either :
(1) OVER-RATE THEIR OWN CAPACITY / CAPABILITY
COMPARATIVE TO
THE ATTACKER(S)
(2) UNDER-RATE THE CAPACITY / CAPABILITY OF THE ATTACKER(S)
COMPARATIVE TO
THEIR OWN CAPACITY /CAPABILITY
