The Ostrich Broadcasting Services, OBS

Note, it ends in BS.

#29 on the AVP candidate list has been held in the Police station in the heart of the island, an earshot away from Santa Cruz, so he can better hear the election campaign messages broadcast from the neighboring MEP headquarters.

While the venerated former minister of infrastructure Benny Sevinger, is being interrogated, his PR machine is hard at work.

Apparently before he was picked up he recorded a video clip, perhaps a series, made to look amateurish, clandestine, and under duress, as if smuggled out of jail. The protagonist sits against a green background, reminiscent of the ISIS propaganda-style materials, produced for the terrorist organization, to scare and intimidate the world.

It worked for ISIS, we were flabbergasted, outraged, disbelieving our eyes, stunned.

Same effect here in the Ostrich’s case.

In his video, I saw two versions, one full length, one short and fuzzy – perhaps there will be more, the Ostrich emphatically asks his voters to vote for him so that his message lives on — whatever that message is – and he blatantly predicts he will be voted into parliament because he is a victim of injustice, and a victim of political manipulations.

In other words, #29 is intent on riding that wave of compassion, all the way to the top of his list, as a falsely accused darling, who has been jailed, his wife arrested, and his kids left weeping in the street.

He got 2,788 votes as #2 on the list in 2017, did he lose any votes with the allegations, he says no, on the contrary, he gained strength as a martyr, a wrongly accused saint.

God help us.

Whatever you do, whoever you vote for, do not vote green, it will be killing this country.
