A larger percentage of Nairaland users don't understand a tad of international politics. So you expect Nigeria to align with Palestine (a struggling state) instead of United States?

What do we stand to gain from Palestine?

Let us quit this cat and mouse game.

Arewa Republic is pro Palestine, Biafra is pro Israel!

These positions have religious undertones!

It is time we split Nigeria! You cannot vuild a nation with extreme and different core value systems!

Let us be pragmatic!

JEWISH BOYCOTT
A short time ago Iran's Supreme Leader Grand Ayatollah Ali Khomenei urged the Muslim World to boycott anything and everything that originates with the Jewish people.
In response, Meyer M. Treinkman, a pharmacist, out of the kindness of his heart, offered to assist them in their boycott as follows:

"Any Muslim who has Syphilis must not be cured by Salvarsan discovered by a Jew, Dr. Ehrlich. He should not even try to find out whether he has Syphilis, because the Wasserman Test is the discovery of a Jew. If a Muslim suspects that he has Gonorrhea, he must not seek diagnosis, because he will be using the method of a Jew named Neissner.

"A Muslim who has heart disease must not use Digitalis, a discovery by a Jew, Ludwig Traube.

Should he suffer with a toothache, he must not use Novocaine, a discovery of the Jews, Widal and Weil.

If a Muslim has Diabetes, he must not use Insulin, the result of research by Minkowsky, a Jew. If one has a headache, he must shun Pyramidon and Antypyrin, due to the Jews, Spiro and Ellege.

Muslims with convulsions must put up with them because it was a Jew, Oscar Leibreich, who proposed the use of Chloral Hydrate.

Arabs must do likewise with their psychic ailments because Freud, father of psychoanalysis, was a Jew.

Should a Muslim child get Diphtheria, he must refrain from the “Schick" reaction which was invented by the Jew, Bella Schick.

"Muslims should be ready to die in great numbers and must not permit treatment of ear and brain damage, work of Jewish Nobel Prize winner, Robert Baram.

They should continue to die or remain crippled by Infantile Paralysis because the discoverer of the anti-polio vaccine is a Jew, Jonas Salk.

"Muslims must refuse to use Streptomycin and continue to die of Tuberculosis because a Jew, Zalman Waxman, invented the wonder drug against this killing disease.

Muslim doctors must discard all discoveries and improvements by dermatologist Judas Sehn Benedict, or the lung specialist, Frawnkel, and of many other world renowned Jewish scientists and medical experts.

"In short, good and loyal Muslims properly and fittingly should remain afflicted with Syphilis, Gonorrhea, Heart Disease, Headaches, Typhus, Diabetes, Mental Disorders, Polio Convulsions and Tuberculosis and be proud to obey the Islamic boycott."

Oh, and by the way, don't call for a doctor on your cell phone because the cell phone was invented in Israel by a Jewish engineer.

Meanwhile I ask, what medical contributions to the world have the Muslims made?"

The Global Islamic population is approximately 1,200,000,000; that is ONE BILLION TWO HUNDRED MILLION or 20% of the world's population.

The Jews are NOT promoting brainwashing children in military training camps, teaching them how to blow themselves up and cause maximum deaths of Jews and other non-Muslims.

The Jews don't hijack planes, nor kill athletes at the Olympics, or blow themselves up in German restaurants.

There is NOT one single Jew who has destroyed a church.

There is NOT a single Jew who protests by killing people. The Jews don't traffic slaves, nor have leaders calling for Jihad and death to all the Infidels.

Perhaps the world's Muslims should consider investing more in standard education and less in blaming the Jews for all their problems.

Muslims must ask 'what can they do for humankind' before they demand that humankind respects them.

Regardless of your feelings about the crisis between Israel and the Palestinians and Arab neighbors, even if you believe there is more culpability on Israel 's part, the following two sentences really say it all:

'If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no more Israel."

Benjamin Netanyahu: General Eisenhower warned us. It is a matter of history that when the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces, General Dwight Eisenhower, found the victims of the death camps he ordered all possible photographs to be taken, and for the German people from surrounding villages to be ushered through the camps and even made to bury the dead.

He did this because he said in words to this effect: 'Get it all on record now - get the films - get the witnesses - because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened'

Recently, the UK debated whether to remove The Holocaust from its school curriculum because it 'offends' the Muslim population which claims it never occurred.

It is not removed as yet. However, this is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving into it.

It is now more than 65 years after the Second World War in Europe ended.

Now, more than ever, with Iran, among others, claiming the Holocaust to be 'a myth,' it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets.

This e-mail is intended to reach 400 million people. Be a link in the memorial chain and help distribute this around the world.

How many years will it be before the attack on the World Trade Center 'NEVER HAPPENED' because it offends some Muslim in the United States

Ok but i hope this will not start a protest and killing of Christians in the north?

fair one by Nigeria.neutrality has been the main thrust of our foreign policy especially on issues like this.

our palestinian friends should return to the negotiation table for peace sake.

i was wondering.did they present Biafra statehood documet too

Op is a Hegoat , I wonder why this made a front page

This is the best new year gift from GEJ to Nigerians. Infact if I am GEJ I will direct the ambassador to vote a big NO.
Like it or not Isreal and USA are better allies to us than Palestine

funkiebully:


Keep coming out gradually, I already know where u are driving at.

Mr president is close to Israel bc He observes his religious duties. So He should shun Israel to satisfy u lots.


I know Why this man GEJ is hated so much by Muslims in Nigeria, nothing But for his faith.

Mind you,jonathan is a zionist israhelli supporter & anti-islam cos all the bombing in the north is carried out by israhelli secret agents in nigeria to kill muslims...As we know the north has the largest muslim population

Next time don't abstain or sit on the fence.Vote WITH Israel for the good of Nigerian security interests in terms of importation of high tech Israeli weaponry,advanced training and increased political clout.Islamic nations won't give you that.

We always crave for peace all over the world. But we prefer to go against justice if we are not favoured by it. Certainly, the perfect way to attain peace is through justice. If we always look at what to gain rather than getting justice done, we tend to create more terrorist (freedom fighter).

I do not understand why and how and Arab population will claim ownership o Jerusalem. Its plain to see that Jerusalem is owned b the Isrealites from Bible days (or other relevant history books) till date. This is what you get when you let Arabs or Muslims settle for too long on any territory. Same thing is going on in Kaduna, Benue, Kwara, Plateau and some parts of Kogi. They are even encroaching Enugu now. Islam i wonder if truely is a religion of peace...God help us.

It does not really matter as it will not stop boko ALARM and the veto right of the US as a permanent SC member would still have stopped it.

funkiebully:
Coming from a religious bigot, How did Nigeria abstaining cause Palestinian statehood to fail? Was it Nigeria that made the number of nay more than yes? What about other countries that abstained aswell?

Hope u have not started using this one to campaign against GEJ in ur mosques bc that's What u ppl are good at.

tbaba1234 you have kwestions to answer

GEJ has a choice weather to make the North happy or South east, and he chooses South East,

Mynd44:

It is surprising because our position has always being to support a palestinian state. This is a sudden change in policy

You and who position?

You need Alamo bitters

You know politics...because i just wondering what this thread is all about.. The last time i checked nigeria has always supporting palestinian statehood..

Excellent move naija. Jerusalem is never for the arabs therefore Palestine can never be a State.

Hian!!! Okwa unu afugo.

You don forget say there was a time churches were being bombed in the north?

Have you forgotten how churches were being torched without any provocation?

those bastard Islamic goat deserve more than that what they actually want is Jerusalem which is not possible highest they are gonna get the all aqsa mosque blown up for the Temple to be rebuilt .
