Lurker4Long: He was cleared of Gupta related corruption charges over 2 yrs ago. JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - South African prosecutors on Thursday provisionally withdrew corruption charges against Duduzane Zuma, the son of former president Jacob Zuma.https://www.reuters.com/article/us-safrica-zuma-idUSKCN1PI0VG Just after the confiscation a court returned their properties though this month i see the gov snatched them again. South Africa’s High Court ruled that the National Prosecuting Authority failed to justify seizing assets linked to the politically connected Gupta family because it hadn’t proved they received funds illicitly diverted from a state run diary project.https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-05-28/south-african-court-overturns-seizure-of-gupta-properties-cars Frankly its nothing but judicial harassment of Zuma! I fear your Real Rulers will never leave him alone. The thing is most Saffas seem to agree with the court lynching and TOTALLY IGNORE real crimes like the looting of your SARB by Gil Marcus with a correspondence degree in Industrial Pyschology or the vacuuming of at least 500 bn$ in todays money in 1990 just before the fall of apartheid. There's even worse,much worse:head of the homopedo club led by Magnus Malan? South Africa's 'paedophile' minister and a mysterious death Its truly a terrible,terrible tale. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-45195756 Its not shocking:Many race obsessed individuals are cursed with strange pathologies of faggotry and sadism. Race baiters are frequently dee smokers like Terreblanche. Anyway many perps involved are still alive. A Saffa on another thread actually said,"that's ancient history," or words to that effect. If your legal systems were fair ALL THOSE MOFOS WOULD'VE BEEN BURIED UNDER THE JAIL!? |

Tinfoil: This is the kind of naive docile thinking that got Africa colonized and lead to becoming a hotbed for neo-colonialism, terrorism, banditry, and piracy in the first place. This world is filled with individuals, states, corporations etc internally & externally that don't have Africa's best interests at heart and you better believe that will heat up in the future.

AskiaHarem: In my opinion, a poor country needs to spend on it's people first, infrastructure,.... Buying weapons only makes it poorer by sending it's foreign reserves to developed countries ToT and local production would be better as it creates jobs, puts money in people's pockets, grows the economy 6 Likes |

Libya was attacked by countries that are way more powerful than Libya itself can ever be, they could spend billions more, the result would have been the same. Assad last this long because he had a strong country behind it, and that's Russia. A poor country can only arm up to defend against powers within it's own league, other than that, it's just a waste of money, spend that money on your infrastructure instead. The billions needed would have to come from somewhere, even if they all sell their kidneys, still won't be enough , so why bother kemicalreact: 2 Likes |

sizzorchan:Tell that to Iran. Do you think US would have hesitated in attacking Iran if it was like Libya? The goal is not to match their power, the goal is to make a war with you costly enough for them. 4 Likes |

sizzorchan:Russia came in much later. At least the war was over a year before Russia came in. The whole invasion of Libya didn't last more than a week or 2 (at least to have dominated militarily). Mauman Gadafi had to run/hide before he was killed months later. Why haven't they attacked North Korea or Iran? 1 Like |

What about Iran? How long did it take Iran to get to where it is today? At what cost? are their people now suffering going to have a dash of missile for Dinner? Nope, they are in pain. Wasting precious resource on arms while your people suffer is a daft idea. And it's not about matching the powers of the West, Iran and Libya poses a different scenario, flip it over and put Iran in libya, The US won't have issues decimating them. You are underestimating the kind of military power America has. If Iran is attacked, the whole region implodes, sure, but if US want to, they can, it will take only a few days to weeks to destroy all of Iran's military infrastructure. The chaos it would cause in the region is most likely the reason they won't, and also the impact that would have on the strait of Homuz or whatever it's called Anyways, just my opinion, carry on. spend dinner money on bullets kemicalreact: 1 Like |

sizzorchan:@bolded LMAO. I don't want to underestimate the suffering of the Iranians, but their standard of living is way better compared to Nigeria which is not under any sanction. A balance of military expenditure and infrastructural project is what makes a country prosperous. Gaddafi was tricked into giving up his chemical weapons program in exchange for some useless concessions. Maybe Iran has the Geographical advantage, what do you have to say about North Korea? 3 Likes 1 Share |

Once again, making my case for me, I mean, of all countries to mention, you mentioned North Korea? lol. Go and live there for 2 weeks, then come back and tell us how dandy it is over there. What is the consequence of the way their Govt operates? Massive poverty and hunger, that's the point I'm making, don't use all your money on arms while your people are hungry, you gotta find a balance, but sadly that balance will never be enough to deter US military from wiping you out, unless you have a sugar daddy. NK have China, Syria have Russia. on top of that, if the US attack them, they could unleash portable nuclear device on South Korea or Japan, these are issues the US will consider before attacking a country like NK, not because they can not. I mean, most of their military arsenals are outdated, sheet. kemicalreact: 1 Like |

I'm saying there needs to be a balance btw both. The convo we were having was can we arm ourselves good enough to deter an attack from a country like the USA, the answer is no, not affordable, on top of that it will take decades to modernize our armed forces etc, why waste all that money when tens of millions of the people are jobless and poor kabe1: |

sizzorchan: When life of citizens is threatened you think security before infrastructure. Be it internal or external threat. Even during peace time reasonable amount of money should still be spent on security Incase of emergency. Nigeria have been spending far less on security even now that her citizens life is threatened not to talk of peace time. Libya made same mistake even though they were way better than Nigeria. No one is saying you shouldn't build infrastructure, but safety of the people comes first and you have to spend base on the threat facing the Nation. |

Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by sizzorchan: 7:19pm On Jun 19, 2021 |
You are shifting things, no one is saying countries shouldn't spend on security, Issue was can a country like Nigeria arm itself enough to fend of an attack from the US, once again, the answer is HELL NO. enough said. We arm up to be the neighborhood strong guys, that's about it, other than that let's focus on our people iblawi: |
