@Donzman

You obviously love Rob Mugabe more than the people of Zimbabwe do.Zimbabwe has turned from a leading agricultural nation to a destination of food aid from the Western.

Zimbabwe has in effect traded ownership of farmland(most of the land was distrubuted to Mugabe's cronies) for dependence on Western food aid .How wise.

You suggested earlier that since we can't get the US to disarm,it is okay for everyone to get nukes.Yes,let everyone get it.That makes plenty of sense.

The fact of the matter is that there is an international treaty that governs the issue of proliferation.Iran is in breach of that.

One buffoon mocked earlier my claim that the 5 permanent members are obliged to negotiate between themselves how they can decommision their nukes.Here is the relevant part of the treaty

Article VI

Each of the Parties to the Treaty undertakes to pursue negotiations in good faith on effective measures relating to cessation of the nuclear arms race at an early date and to nuclear disarmament, and on a Treaty on general and complete disarmament under strict and effecrnational control.

It is pointless asking the 5 permanent members to continue negotiations on nuclear disarmament when nations like N.Korea and Iran are busy building nukes while Isreal,Pakistan and India who never signed the treaty have no plans to disarm.

The question is whether in the light of the difficulty in getting those who are already nuclear armed to disarm we should ignore further prolifertion.I think further proliferation is unwelcome.The more nukes there are the higher the possibility of nuclear warfare

No one has questioned the validity or otherwise of the JAMB stats. JAMB starts tell you how many entered school, it does not say how many finish. Do you have stats for that too?
Given that the JAMB stats,whose validity you do not question,suggest that more people from the S.E were admitted to Uni than the S.W,it undermines the essence of your question.

We don't have stats for who finished Uni(NYSC stats might be useful here) but we can make rational deuctions from what we have.

For instance,using the earlier 2004/05 stats which show that 41,000 were admitted from the S.E and 22,000 from the S.W,it does suggest that the S.E produces more graduates than the S.W.

Given that the figure for the S.E is almost double that of the S.W,there has to been a phenomenal drop out rate for S.E students for the S.W to match the number of graduates produced by the S.E.In effect,there has to be a drop-out rate of nearly 50% for S.E students(half of all S.E students) while the S.W students must have nearly 100% completion rate.

I am sure u don't think that the S.E has a 50% drop out rate while the S.W has nearly a 100%.Anecdotal evidence from my former school suggest that the drop out rate can't be anything more than 5% for S.E students

Debosky suggested earlier that maybe the S.E population is much larger than that of the S.W.That is quite laughable and will mark the first time in history I have ever heard such a thing.It goes against decades of evidence,dating back to the colonial era,showing that there are more people in the S.W  than the S.E

If we use that same 2004/05 stat,the S.E must have nearly double the populace of the S.W to explain away the gap.

Check your history, the communist Government of Vietnam didn't invite the US to fight against Communist Vietnam.
Vietnam  in the 50s after its war with France separated into 2 like Korea,the North was under a communist Govt while the South was under a non-communist Govt.The Govt in the South asked for US help to defend it in its battle against the North.

A internationally recognised Govt is entitled under international law to invite a foreign Govt to come to its assistance in a military conflict

@Donzman

Your arguments barely reside within the boundaries of reason that I don't know how to begin to deconstruct them.

However for the sake of boredom let me try.

There is a little piece of International law embodied in what is called the NPT which I gather from your arguments u are unaware of.Under this treaty,the 5 permanent members are allowed to retain their arms,subject to an obligation to negotiate btw themselves its reduction.

Other nations who have signed this treaty undertake to desist from any attempts to acquire nuclear weapons and to subject their nuclear programs to full inspections.Remember that nations have the choice to sign this treaty or not.

Iran exercised the choice to do so and logically it is only right that are being called upon to comply fully with the obligations they have undertaken.

If we agree that nukes are bad,it is irational to say that since this bad thing is in the hands of some let it be in the hands of many more. I do not see the logic of saying the more dangerous weapons there are the better.

Nor do I  share your confidence in the Iranian regime to act responsibly while in possesion of nukes.

As for your little diatribe on the US's purpoted belligerency.In Somalia,in 2007,they bombed at the invitation of the sovereign and internationally recognised Govt of Somalia which is legitimate use of force under international law.

In Vietnam,they went in on  the invitation of the Govt of the Republic of Vietnam,again a legitimate use of force

In Iraq,they were on less firm legal grounds I will admit when they invaded but I will say that Iraq's breach of various Cap 7 Resolutions coupled with the various post war UN Resolutions which have  legitimised the prescence of Coalition forces puts the US on safe legal footing

Foreign AffairsRe: Israel Plans Nuclear Strike On Iran by 4Play(op): 2:10am On Feb 07, 2007
America has been developing a missile defence program which is designed to take out incoming missiles in orbit

These systems work with land and space based surveillance systems to detect missiles as they are launched.

The biggest problem the program faces is how to cope with dummy missiles.Missiles which are launched alongside real missiles to confuse the detection mechanisms

While such a missile defence program is not perfect,they do offer some measure of protection to the US and its allies.

Ultimately,the best defense program is prevention.It is better to prevent the acquisition of nuclear arms than to hope to knock them out when they are launched.

I fail to see your point.Unless u can show that a particular ethnic group has cornered the scholarships for Ivy League institutions.

I won't doubt that there are tons of smart yorubas in your school but then there are tons of smart Itsekiris,Ijaws,Igbos,ibibio e.t.c

All this is just stumbling in the dark.None of this tells us anything about anything.

There are tons of smart Scottish people in the UK.What does that tell us.?Nothing!

@Terracotta

Your analysis is incredibly flawed because u don't adjust for population differences

For instance,Kaduna has  higher numbers than Ekiti.Does that tell us that people from Kaduna are more educated than people from Ekiti.It simply means that there are far more people in Kaduna than Ekiti

What u need is data that tells u what percentage of people from a state are enrolled in school.

If state A has a population of 2 million people and 1 million have gone through schooling,State B has a population of 1.5 million and 900,000.The later is more educated even though it has fewer people who have gone through school

U have to make adjustments for population differences.Otherwise we can conclude that Nigerians are better educated than Jewish people because there are more Nigerians in school than Jews

Go back and get us some proper data
