If Nigerians can't use the reaches of SM or Tiktok to coordinate a flawless revolution in these times...forget it.

It won't ever happen if it can't happen now.

New Caledonia is a group of islands in the Pacific Ocean. It is believed that the indigenous people are using TikTok to coordinate the riots.

So you are deceiving yourself that this ain't islam related?
France did this to themselves.

He didn't even bother to find out anything about the country or the reason for the riots, he just vomitted his prejudices.

Summary

This is for those that can't read the article and those that might be misled by mischief makers.

New Caledonia is a group of islands in the Pacific Ocean, near Australia (and far away from Europe).

It is a possession of France, just as Britain owns St Helena which is not far from Nigeria (and is far away from Britain).

Voters register in New Caledonia has not been updated since 1998. This is because some of the indigenous Kanak people fear that new comers from Europe will dominate them (the population of New Caledonia is 300,000).

However, the French Government now wants to update the voters register and indigenous people are afraid that this will allow European new comers to vote and to dominate them. This is the reason for the riot.

It has nothing to do with religion (ignore the mischief makers). Most of the people of New Caledonia are either Christians or atheists.

Can you use TikTok in Russia?

On March 6, 2022, the social network TikTok disabled the ability to post new videos and launch live broadcasts for users from Russia.

Muslims choosing to do selective justice, you see a country that has empathy for emigration, but you prefer to export your violent religion overseas, for what reason exactly, just like Israel is defending themselves, these ones don't want it to deteriorate to the condition Israel is now.

How's that Russia's fault that TikTok stopped users in Russia from access its platform? Why blame Russia for it? Every other western company left Russia too, Russia didn't stop anyone from doing business in Russia.

Does Russia own TikTok?

Is Russia a Muslim country?

Between Russia and the US which one behaves more Christian like?

Does Christianity support all manner of perversion and degeneracy like you see in the US. Are those Christian values too?

Your first post showed your effort to malign the root of the problem. You rushed to put pictures of the percentage religion of the country in a post you wrote it was about TikTok, now you see at the heart of the media you used look at this picture... an example of another country is below where percentage of islam doesn't matter for them to perpetuate their vices.

grin Can you imagine that vibratingpenis thinks that I am going to read his nonsense?

I give people one or two chances to make sense and when they show me that they can't, I simply put them in the ignore list. I will never read their posts.

The reason for the riot is very clear and any sensible person knows what it is, but for some reason this funny guy showed up to try and forcefully make it about Islam, even though it isn't.

He has attacked two people on this thread, using Islam as a plank, even though their posts have nothing to do with Islam.

Is that the person that should be taken seriously?

He can waste his time and energy and continue to mention me, but I am not going to read his posts. I have better things to do with my time.

MrBrownJay1:
its only when the shiit hits the fan that all these "supposedly" democratic countries will act even worse than the countries they point fingers at.

when China bans all the foreign websites and apps thats against China, they say China is wrong, yet now that it will help their cause, they are doing exactly what China did to get their own peace. BLOODY HYPOCRITES!

Democracy, freedom of speech, and all those fancy words are just tools in their weapon of controlling the world. What's the point of freedom of speech when there is no medium to express it? When there is also no freedom after speech, and even after speaking, no one is listening?

If after speaking, I criticize maybe Israel or gays, then what's the point of their freedom of speech?

If I tell you that there is a million naira in your account, but you can't use it, transfer it, or make it work for you, then what's the point of the cash?

The West relies on very dumb people to perpetuate this sham system, because when you scrutinize it very well, and compare it to other places, you know its just being deceitful, with the intent to mislead.

But you are supporting Russia in this context of freedom right?

It is your Russia against the west as you've shown.

Now, who brought religion in government, I am no Christian but I follow Christ and believe in the total freedom of man, physically and spiritually not bound by some semantics of religion.

People should be allowed to worship whatever they want as far as it is peaceful and harmless to others which is why islam is fighting it.
Re: France Bans TikTok In Riot Hit New Caledonia by naptu2: 8:28am On May 17
The cause of the problem.

Some people accuse France of refusing to grant independence to New Caledonia because of the lithium and other minerals on the islands.

However, others say that there have been several referendums and people have voted against independence each time.

However, supporters of the indigenous Kanaks say that it was European settlers that voted against independence.

This is one of the reasons why indigenous people do not want the voters register to be updated.

Ignore that guy.

This thread has nothing to do with religion, but he is determined to derail the thread by posting about Islam. I'll report him to the mods very soon if he keeps derailing the thread.

Just ignore him, he isn't to be taken seriously.

Did I ask you whether Russia or USA are christian or islamic countries, you brought that, we were discussing about freedom which you are castigating the west and the US in support of Russia, that is what we were talking about before you started preaching about Christians and perverted christian values.

A matter of time. Whether its an overseas territory or a colony, france will have to renegotiate terms eventually. Who'd have thought france would be kicked out in its former west african colonies.



They can never really fully kick out France from West Africa. France is going to be here pretty much until the end of time in one way or another and there’s nothing that they can do about it so they should just learn to accept it.
Look at this stupid Senegal thinking of changing as official language to Arabic ,?Arabic !!! Of all languages

France is definitely going to place some repercussions on Senegal in one way or another. Those people are here to stay until they finish every single natural resources in West Africa till the last drop
they are not going anywhere.

More French police arrive in New Caledonia amid riots

5 hours ago

Hundreds of French police reinforcements have arrived in New Caledonia amid ongoing riots in the Pacific Ocean territory which have left five people dead.

French High Commissioner Louis Le Franc said reinforcements had been deployed to "regain control of all the areas of the urban area that we have lost".

The unrest erupted this week after lawmakers in Paris backed and approved changes to voting rolls that the indigenous population say will dilute their political influence.

Hundreds of people have been injured, and officials say around 200 people have been arrested so far.

According to AFP, reinforcements began landing at the French army-controlled La Tontouta International Airport on Thursday, and could be seen moving through the capital Noumea carrying rifles and wearing riot gear.

France's Prime Minister, Gabriel Attal, said about 1,000 extra security forces were being sent to the territory to join the 1,700 personnel already there. He said authorities would push for "the harshest penalties for rioters and looters".

A statement by the High Commission representing France said that state of emergency powers - granted by President Emmanuel Macron earlier this week - had allowed security forces to impose "a calmer and more peaceful situation" around the Noumea for the first time since the unrest started on Monday.

High Commissioner Le Franc told reporters at a press conference that reinforcements would be sent to impose order "where control is no longer assured".

Under the state of emergency, authorities have imposed a night-time curfew and banned public gatherings, carrying weapons, and the sale of alcohol.

Schools remain shut, and Noumea's airport is closed to commercial aircraft.

Photos from the territory in recent days show flames and smoke billowing from a shopping centre, burnt out cars, and long queues of people outside shops looking for food and supplies.

Authorities say 10 independence activists accused of organising violence have been placed under house arrest.

Officials say that the five killed during the protests include two gendarmes, and three Indigenous Kanak residents aged 17 to 36.

New Caledonia has a population of about 300,000 people, of whom the indigenous Kanak people make up about 40%, or 112,000 people.

The group of islands, located between Australia and Fiji, has been a French territory since the 19th century. This is the worst unrest it has seen since the 1980s.

Under the 1998 Nouméa Accord, France agreed to give the territory more political autonomy and to limit voting in provincial and assembly elections to only those who were residents then.

More than 40,000 French citizens have moved to New Caledonia since.

The agreement allowed for three referendums on the country's future. Independence was rejected in all instances.

The first two showed slim majorities for remaining part of France. The third, in December 2021, was boycotted by pro-independence parties after the authorities refused to postpone the vote due to the Covid epidemic.

They simply can't survive without suppressing other nations.

Am sure you did not read the article.

Without France New Caledonia would be a 3rd world country hence the reason why the citizens voted thrice to remain a French territory rather than an independent country.
