Remember American government never says anything especially the state department without evidence at their disposal. Here is what the American government/White House under then State Department Secretary Henry Kissinger in a memo to President Nixon during the Biafran war...exact quote

"Igbos are wandering Jews of West Africa - gifted, aggressive, westernized, and at best, envied and resented, but mostly despised by their neighbors in the Federation---" (a White House Memo on Biafra January 28, 1969 to President Nixon by Secretary of State, Henry Kissinger) (Source : U.S Foreign Relations Documents Volume 5 , 1969)

Over 50yrs evident is there of who we are.
Any tribe in Nigeria that says that Igbos are not important to them or not most important in Nigeria, is like a fish saying it can do without water.

[b]This is why we cone headed yolobars hate you guys.

You're obviously better than us in every way.

You control 98% of our _southwaste lands.

You are very industrious & run business (e.g selling groundnut, gala & vijumilk in traffic).

You supply the world with a major mineral resource (white Biafran powder, escobar can't touch you guys).

You help us kidnap & adultnap thieving politicians and shit_.

You eat,cannibalize & feast on yourselves thereby saving & reserving livestock for us non cannibals.

You help us watch soap operas and movies cheaply by pirating them ( we're grateful, really ).

You drill yourselves in your asses (men) thereby making the Republic of Nigeria look liberal and favoring towards gays & homos (it's a shame obama is no longer in power). edit: Fresh one today, f_latties no dey disappoint https://www.nairaland.com/3970026/two-homosexual-pastors-caught-act

Your women give our barbers jobs because of their beards and hair on their chest and legs, thereby contributing to the "Southwastes" IGR.

It's a shame your women don't contribute to our gym's revenue because they already have muscular yam legs.

they're also Fugly and un-photogenic thereby making more money for our yoloba women selling makeup kits ( trying to compete with us yoloba bleachers ).

see proof:

In fact, after going over that unreferenced quote a second time I realize it's your comprehension that fails. No where did he say Igbos share any ancestry with Jews. If you knew a thing about Jewish history and the discrimination they face today (and in the past) as "puppet masters" then you would understand it.

Your misinterpretation is as inane as claiming "as fat as a pig" means the person/thing is literally a pig or "orcas are sea pandas" means orcas are literally sea pandas or related.

Then back them because you've consistently failed to so. Repeatedly posting covers of obscure books, cherry-picked edited images does not constitute evidence nor does asking me to read to find evidence for your claim.

Fraud, when I refuted your fraudulent image in the other thread, I linked specifically to the page without asking anyone to research it for themselves in an obscure text so you sure as hell won't make me read those things you're posting.
