Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT & URN | Reports from eyewitnesses indicate suspected bomb blasts have taken place close to Central Police Station (CPS) Kampala and parliament avenue.

Media reports indicate there were two blasts, with one at Kooki Towers opposite CPS and at Jubilee Insurance, IPS building on parliament avenue.

The area and grounds around City square have been cordoned off due to the bomb blast and traffic is being redirected to alternate routes by the police and military.

Panic in city centre

There is panic in the Kampala Central Business district following explosions at the IPS building next to Parliament and  Kampala Capital City Authority-KCCA, and the quarter guard, at CPS Kampala this morning.

The blasts went off a few minutes after 10 am triggering panic in the area. Our reporter at the parliamentary avenue, says that three vehicles around Jubilee Building were on fire. Two police officers could be seen lying lifeless on the ground near the blast scene between Jubilee Tower and Queen’s Chambers.

According to the reporter, most of the buildings around the area have closed with people monitoring what is going on behind closed doors. At least five ambulances and two fire tenders are on the scene. URN also saw several blast victims being carried off to the ambulances.

Police have cordoned off the parliamentary avenue from the main gate of parliament and the Ministry of Justice. Security has restricted access to the area.  Only journalists and security officers with clear identification are allowed to access the area of the blast.

It is still unclear how many people could have died in the blast but our reporter says pieces of human flesh and blood are visible at the scene of the blast. Police have introduced sniffer dogs at the scene to try and help them get some clues on the incident.

  1. Anyone who seeks a better understanding of the seemingly unexplainable conflicts and events taking place in and around the world should learn more about the modern-day application by our “rulers” of what is known as the Hegelian Dialectic (problem, reaction, solution).

    1. The first step (thesis) is to Create a problem.

    2. The second step (antithesis) is to generate a Reaction, or opposition, to the problem (fear, panic and hysteria).

    3. The third step (synthesis) is to offer the Solution to the problem created by step one: A change which would have been impossible to impose upon the people without the proper psychological conditioning that
    is now achieved in stages one and two.

    When our “rulers” see a result they would like to have, whether it be increased domestic authoritarian rule (think of all the current hot-button issues being generated about race, gender, guns, free speech, political correctness, health and privacy) or a war abroad that solidifies their power, dominance and control – all they have to do is devise a problem that will lead to the outcome they want.

    This is commonly done through false flag events and attacks, where the government of a nation attacks itself so that it can respond in the way that it had wanted to all along, because it’s only through those attacks where citizens will ultimately give in and agree to their planned solution.

    We want to think that there is no way this could be allowed to happen by our own government, but can we really be so sure?

    Think about it, on a much lesser plane, people utilize the Hegelian Dialectic without even realizing it. Someone doesn’t feel they’re getting the attention they need or deserve from others (problem).

    They create some sort of drama, tragedy or sickness in their life (reaction). Others start showing them the attention that they wanted to begin with (solution).

    How much more can this process of manipulation actually be magnified when it corresponds with more wealth, corruption and power than most of us can even imagine?

    So, when we are presented with something rather outlandish taking place on the news, maybe we should first ask ourselves if it really even makes much sense.

    It might just yet be another example of the Hegelian Dialectic playing out right before our very eyes.

    It may better serve us to take a moment to try and determine what the real agenda could be from those who are in control (problem) before blindly jumping on board (reaction) and supporting their resolution (solution).
