How is ISLAM related in this issue. Lebanon is christian majority first of all. Hezbollah is part of the government (if u think Hezbollah is the terrorist group), definitely not ISIS as Beirut has never been their stronghold. However any person that has knowledge in wars would assume it could be ISRAEL due to their recent encounters.
I guess a lot of NAIRALANDERS DONT know what is and what is not.
They read middle east and assume Muslim.

It's not a Christian majority but it's people are Liberal and the country is Secular.

Also the explosion wasn't a terrorist attack according to updated reports

Anywhere there is Islamic practice, freedom is shredded, war and bloodshed is entrenched. These are facts.

Wherever Islam finds itself as minority, peace is destroyed, agitation is embraced. They become relentless, restless, and violent. These are facts.

Where Islam is majority, hope is caged, a deadly oppression of minorities is executed. These are facts.

When Mohammed went to the cave seeking answers from God, little did he know that the demon that met him at the cave with Islam was no Angel but a violent, restless, and thirsty spirit.

Constantly at war with itself, there is no doubt that it is the most consequential religion man has ever known after the death of Christ.

Syria itself is also complicit. The assassination of Hariri as well as the funding of Hezbollah.


Infact, it is the Syrian and Iranian interference in Lebanese affairs that is giving Israel an excuse to attack that country...

Wherever Christianity finds itself as minority, peace is destroyed, agitation is embraced. They become relentless, restless and violent. These are facts. Just look at what Zamani Lakwat initiated in Southern Kaduna up to date..

Where Christianity is majority, hope is caged, a deadly oppression of minorities is executed. These are facts such as Plateau and Taraba States.

No wander they claimed that Jesus said in English Standard Version of the Bible in Mathew 10:34 that:

“Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword".

There were nitric acid in large quantities which sources say have been there for over 12yrs. There's this saying that the older the acid, the more firepower it will have.

There's lots of videos documenting the blast in real-time, the effects of it. Sure the country got a knack for terrorism, in this case I doubt that was the case here.

Stop displaying a typical Nigerian nuisance mentality, do you think people here are kids in your neighborhood? you said earlier that " imagine a Muslim country with a nuclear power " that simply means you are ignorant that Pakistan is a nuclear power, then you started digressing, when you do not know about something, you keep shut, they do not pay you to comment here......what I know about India Pakistan tension is more than what your busy body will get glancing through google pages.

Everyone Worldwide know Islam for what it is. A religion of force where you can enter but cannot go back or be killed (Apostacy) Yet my Sheik says there is no compulsion in Religion.

We all know the Fulani's (Muslim) are the one causing issues in both Kaduna and Taraba you mentioned above, with culpable support from one short man who is blood thirsty. (There are over 1 million short people possibly causing the trouble, but you can guess who among them it is)

All your claims above still fails to mention the name of the Christian Terrorist groups tormenting Nigeria and the World at large, but if you ask a 10 year Old, he will mention 10 Islamic terrorist group without blinking an eye. Even the famous Muslim station Aljazeera couldn't hide the name "Islamic group" anymore.

Its an open secret that wherever Islamic extremism goes, peace depart. I spent over 7 years in both Malaysia and Singapore and can categorically tell you the Islam they practiced is 100% different from that of Saudi, Iran, Afghanistan, Yemen etc. You hardly see all these black black masquerade like buqa you see in Nigerians Nigeria in Malay. All you see is pink, blue, lilac and very colourful headscarf/Hijab, you see Malaysian Chinese with bum shots on the street( impossible in Iraq etc)

Back to Lebanon:
Lebanon is a promounced Country in the World who shares powers legitimately (as in constitution) with sunni and shia group, despite having Christian majority among religious groups. 3 biggest position is been shared as Christian- Muslim- Muslim- since shia is seen as a different group from Sunni . This means there is more power even in the Hands of the Islamist than the major Christian faith.

Back to Nigeria; Because you raised the issue of Kaduna etc. Is there a Muslim deputy in Hell Rufai government- despite Christian constituting over 30% of the state.

Lebanon Current constitution mandates that. President must be Christian, Prime minister - Sunni Muslim and head of Parliament - shia Muslim. There are over 18 sects in Lebanon and all of them must have their representation. Can you say same for Nigeria where First to 15th highest position only has 2 Yoruba and 1 Igbo. This means the Lebanon in this question is even better organised than Nigeria. Despite our quota and federal character system, we have unbalanced distribution of non elective posts among major ethnic groups and religion.

They have deceived us far too long by using the name Hausa-Fulani. Hausa is different from Fulani, but merging the 2 names makes them have the upper hand in terms of Population. This is a story for another day.

I believe I could be clouded by my Christian faith. But, ask an Hindu, pagan, traditionalist or any non muslim or non Christian to tell you which of the 2 Religion is peaceful and which is violent. From China, to India to Myammar, to UK. Muslims are always causing trouble. Imagine MUMURIC Akintola fighting WAEC while other more Islamic nation that constitute WAEC -like Senegal and Mali who are even more Islamic than Nigeria dont have any complaints whatsoever.


There are 1-2-3 Muslims in Parliament of Christian Countries, even in Jewish state of Israel. But do we have a single Christian in the ruling class in Saudi, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, Bahrain, UAE, Qatar etc? This clearly shows that Islam is "tolerant indeed "

Anyone trying to defend Islam as peaceful and tolerant must definitely use Yaqiya because its clear to the blind, loud to the deaf/ dumb what Islam preaches Worldwide.



its easier to defend devil himself, than defend Islam. Christianity has its own, but Islam is far from it.
