If our security egg-heads are still counting on western weapons, then they must be clueless indeed. Since when has the US given us any serious military aid in over 50 years.? I can understand the yanks though. There is no major threat to US interests in west africa. All the nations in this region are lackeys of the US, so the US wouldn't want to upset the apple cart by 'unnecessarily' arming Nigeria. Countries that benefit from US military aid like israel, japan, egypt, south korea acts as buffers to serious powers that threaten US interests. It is left for Nigeria to acknowledge this fact and get what it need from the equally capable eastern bloc.l Algeria and india, two of the most capable and meanest military powers in the world are armed to the teeth with eastern weapons. It is left for Nigeria to follow their footsteps. |

[quote author=mekaboy post=30175269] They are waiting for the elections to end and see if jonathan is re-elected so they can approve the sales. Bokoharam shares thr same ideology with ISIS, Both ISIS and bokoharam r enemies of the west. Now buhari is a supporter of bokoharam, and is contesting for president of Nigeria. Selling this weapon to Nigeria with buhari as president, means handing the weapons of the west to their enemy. You dont want buhari to hand the weapons over to bokoharam. or have members of ISIS as security in aso rock. So they are watching to know what choices nigerians will make at the polls. If they will reelected someone that has the interest of Israel and US or someone that supports Bokoharam, ISIS and the enemies of the west.[/quote] Right here is the most accurate answer to this Naija and America saga. Folks, this makes sense 1 Like |

macof:Yet they did so with Osama Bin Laden in Afghanistan to oppose the Russians, and more recently in Libya and now in Syria... USA, Nato and UN Created Terror State in Libya http://www.thenewamerican.com/world-news/africa/item/19939-obama-and-un-created-terror-state-in-libya Economic elitists interests supersede religious interests. For example, in Libya they knew perfectly well that they were supporting Islamist against Gaddafi as it was mentioned many times in the news and by various commentators and specialists. Same for Syria now. If the USA support one candidate more than the other, it's because of economic elitist interests (low cost access to unrefined oil, low cost access to untransformed minerals, arms deals, free market open to their multinationals, maintaining a client and dependent state in Nigeria with limited development, etc). |

Nigerians need to know there is difference between national politics and international politics. In national politics your skill is measured by how "maradonal" you are. That allows you to benefit from your friends and not loose too much from your enemies. However, in international politics, you have to be as constant as the "northern star". Thus, you loose absolutely from your enemies and gain absolutely from your friends. Middle ground is a loose loose. I would have given some examples but for lack of time. Moreover, "a word is enough for the wise". |

guyla: Sometimes Nigerians are blinded by education . Obama does not care about the political colors of the candidate in Nigeria's upcoming elections. It plays prudent to pretend he has an eye on Nigeria with a view to which of the Nigerian candidates best serves Americas interests but in reality lesser politicians in the current US Democratic Administration are the ones with such concerns. Obama just hates Nigerians because Nigerians view themselves as proud blacks while Obama is a man at ease with himself only in a self-loathing capacity. Obama is an African American who hates Nigerians the same way the average African American or Jamo in the inner cities hate Nigerians. His policies and attitude towards Nigeria are no less what Oprah Winfred's would be towards Nigeria were she the one holding the reigns of power in that Nation. Forget all that stuff about geopolitics and Human rights, this or that lobby - these things just gets in the way of truly understanding what we're up against as Nigerians when trying to understand the machinations of the West. |

CSTR: Good one. Why this US arms talk all the time. The will of an army will always overcome the sophistication of opposing weaponry. The Red Army had far inferior weapons to the German Army at the battle of Stanlingrad but Stalin put simply put a gun to the heads of his generals and told them not to return. The rest is history. In Vietnam, agent orange, the M16 and the B52's could not destroy the Vietcong. American weaponry has not always prevailed in the face of poor doctrine, poor ideology and poor execution. |

US weldone. If you dare allow nigeria to purchase that, the next thing you hear is boko boys hijacked it to sambisa. The military are systematically arming the boko boys. Imagine an officer operating armoured personel carrier (APC) will run away and live that bomb/bullet proof machine for fear of his life. I have been pleading that somebody should advise GEJ to sack all the service chiefs for failing to tackle boko haram. GEJ if you like sack them or not come FEBUHARI there is going to be change.

Re: Boko Haram: US Halts Israeli Aid To Nigeria by izzieman: 6:36pm On Jan 27, 2015 |
asadike: The reason for the US refusal is simple. A cornerstone of any good army is that if you do have to make a tactical withdrawal, you should never let certain sophisticated equipment fall into your opponent's hands. That means you destroy them. We have all seeing that when our soldiers are out powered, they leave tanks and guns for Boko Haram to be used on our boys at a later date. As regards to why the US would stop Israel from selling to Nigeria, Israel can sell equipment to us that are of Israeli manufacture but they ARE NOT ALLOWED to sell US made equipment without approval from the US. On a lower level, if anyone here buys or owns certain I.T. equipment that are manufactured in the US, you should know that you cannot sell it to North Korea or Iran; if you do, you risk jail if the US finds out and you ever step on US shores. |

This is my problem with Buhari and APC.... They have continued to disrespect and undermine the office of the president but want to occupy it... How will you tell the US secretary that? All because you want to get votes... Now they have blocked the current president from doing his job but will say GEJ has not bought any equipment for the military... You can not attain a position that you don't respect, that's life for you.... You can not bad belle a CEO and then become one... Bunch of miscreants!!!! |
