Terrorist nominating another terrorist for noble peace prize. He negotiated peace deal between Rwanda and Congo. Swapping war for resource exploitation, gaining direct access to Congo’s minerals, with Rwanda acting as a refining and export hub reducing Congo's direct control and profits from its own resources. Is that a peace deal or broad day light robbery?

He tried so hard to broker a deal between Ukraine and Russia but Putin schooling the pleb on Politics101. So much for "I'll end the war within a day" because I "know" Putin.

Good. We don't need America to invite us to discuss how to pillage how resources more. There has never be a win for Africa between the West and Africa international relations. It has always been one sided deal where America wins. I don't know what to say to colonial slaves that are pained by this development.

Good move. Russia deserves to expand its influence in Central and South Asia. This is a big statement in the face of America, Putin giving them something to think and worry about.

You're not been unreasonable. In fact you're been taken for a mug. I understand provision is central to men's role in Nigeria but hey this is the UK where both partners put heads together to share responsibilities including bills sharing.

She's taking advantage of Nigeria' system but probably won't think twice to use UK's system against you, which in both systems you're the loser. Bills sharing doesn't necessarily have to be 50-50 especially given the fact that you earn more but her not contributing nothing at all (apart from bringing food to the table) is diabolical and manipulative.

Great compilations. Proud to have all the albums of the likes of Fela Kuti and Sunny Ade.

I think any reasonable person knows no bunker buster bomb will damage a facility buried under more than 200 feet of mountain. American GBU-MOP was made to penetrate and obliterate hardened target up to 200ft of unspecified material. May prove successful for target under sand, reinforced concrete steel metal etc but rocky mountain? 🤔🤔 There's no Battle Damage Assessment or foot on ground to confirm this "obliteration" but anyway, agenda must agend.

What do we now say of a group that woke up one day unprovoked entered another tribes territory and killed 1200 civilians children inclusive and abducted another 250 civilians.

I already replied you bro. But if you missed it, my initial reply to you is below -

Oh so we're starting history on October 7 now? What do we say about the decades of blockade, land seizures, apartheid policies, and repeated bombardments that led up to that? Or the thousands of Palestinian civilians, many of them children, killed long before October 7? These things are not shown to you on BBC, CNN, Sky News, MSNBC and other Western propaganda media that are shoved down your throat. You don’t trap, brutalise, and bomb a population for decades and expect peace songs in return.

Yes what Hamas did was tragic but you can’t isolate one day in history and pretend it happened in a vacuum. You’re outraged at 1,200 Israeli lives lost (as you should be), but completely silent on the 50,000+ Palestinian lives taken in the months that followed.

If human life truly matters to you, then it has to matter consistently, not just when it fits a certain narrative. Justice isn’t selective, if your empathy only activates when it’s Israelis dying, but you scroll past Palestinian corpses like it’s normal, then you’re not defending humanity my bro, you're defending a double standard. Dig a little deeper in history, not just from Oct 7.

People like you are easily deceived by Islam. Why do you always behave the Islamist way?

I'm no muslim, but there's nothing wrong with Iran and any other state being an Islamic state. There are more than 8 billion people in the world with different religions, traditions, culture, ethics, way of life etc and should not be condemned because of how they choose to live their lives. Israeli propaganda will not stand here.

moscow007:
Israel psyop, we hear u and we recognize you.

The only people I blame is Nigerians that feel they do not matter in the global affairs, hence making them susceptible to propaganda and programming like this, certainly the inform people see you and you antics.

Exactly, the Nigerians you talk about are the zombies Fela sang about. Though the informed people are in the minority but we'll make sure Israeli propaganda will not get a foothold here.

Putin knows better than to play into the West’s games. Attendance isn’t about geography, it’s about impact. And Russia’s influence on the BRICS stage is undeniable whether he’s there in person or not.

arsenal33:
Piece of Gaza
Piece of Lebanon
Piece of Syria
Piece of West Bank.
Which one?

All of the above. The collective West knows the plan and of course they're allowing it to happen.

One day you’re the ride to the red carpet, the next you’re a sofa for goats and ekuke

Bombing residential buildings is why no country will support or trust Iran again with a civilian nuclear program.

Imagine Israeli Aircraft dropping bombs on Iranian civilians. Millions would've died.

When Iran hits residential building (In a war they didn't ask for), it’s suddenly ‘proof’ they can’t be trusted with a nuclear program. But when Israel turns entire Gaza neighbourhoods into rubble, flattens refugee camps, and kills thousands including women and children, that’s just ‘self-defence,’ right?

Imagine the mental gymnastics: Missiles from Iran hitting residential areas is a global crisis, but thousands of Israeli airstrikes on civilians? That’s just Wednesday.

If bombing civilians makes a country untrustworthy, then Israel should’ve been blacklisted long ago. They didn't even declare the nuclear weapons in their possession but I guess war crimes only count when the West isn’t looking the other way. The hypocrisy is doing backflips at this point.

Moniya4Real:
Honestly bro, my heart bleeds and I am sometimes moved to tears whenever I read about the mindset and biased narratives of an average African, especially Nigerians when it comes to the West and All imperialists who are responsible for the backwardness of Africa as a whole.

It's heartbreaking. Many of them don’t even know how Nigeria was formed, why our borders are the way they are, or how colonial rule deliberately sowed ethnic divisions to weaken unity. They don’t ask why youth unemployment is so high, why we import what we can produce, or why Africa, with all its potential, remains unindustrialised. The same people will criticise the government without realising that it’s not just about corruption, there are external forces, more powerful than any president, pulling strings behind the scenes. Yes, the government is corrupt, but that’s part of a larger system designed to keep us weak and dependent. Then the oppressed will jump to defend Israel, an apartheid state backed by the same imperialist powers that censor or shuts down voices that don't align with their narratives.

What's worse? Many think they’re informed because they watch Western news, when in reality, they’re consuming filtered narratives meant to keep Africa in its place. Colonisation didn't end bro. It's just not physical, it's mental.

Where are all the people who were loudly supporting Israel in the Israel-Iran war? Can’t you see the pattern? If you're upset about African Stream being shut down by Western powers for challenging dominant narratives, and the next, you’re blindly echoing those same Western narratives when it comes to global conflicts, then I'm lost of words for you.

If you condemn Iran while supporting Israel’s aggression based solely on what CNN, BBC etc, or whatever Western governments feed you, but still express outrage over African Stream’s shutdown, then you’re either not serious or very ignorant.

You can’t be against imperialist censorship and still embrace imperialist propaganda when it aligns with your uninformed and ignorant biases. That’s exactly the kind of mental colonisation African Stream is trying to fight, now it's being silenced. E go soon clear for una eyes.

The "good old days" weren’t always that good—especially compared to today’s convenience. Those times were often stressful. So why the nostalgia? In many ways, the present is better. Life is meant to move forward.

Today, I can binge an entire season of Suits from my couch; back then, I had to keep swapping CDs. Creatives used to be exploited by middlemen, but now platforms like YouTube let them monetize directly. These so-called “bad days” have actually spread opportunities and income to far more people.

I'm from this generation as well where there's a "Video club" in almost every corner of a street. I revel in the nostalgia but I certainly don't miss it. I don't know about Nollywood movies but as far as foreign movies goes back then, I remember the likes of Prison Break, Legends of the Seeker, Lost etc which I have no doubt they are all 100% pirated, that touches on your assertion that creatives were being exploited.

But I'll tell you, last week I paid £30 (excluding shipping) for a Lagbaja "We before Me" CD album, which is a bit of an irony. If someone told me back then that I'll buy one single CD album for more than 60,000 Naira in 2025, I'll sure laugh.

Which kind dry joke be this abeg? 😂😂 If air defence system for even short range cost between $20M-$100M and the missile itself cost between $3-5M per shot. How many missiles we go shoot before the country go broke? If missile show, make una use prayer point jam am for mid-air. Una kuku love God well well. Who needs air defence system when you get God of Israel who go intercept incoming missile with his mighty hand.

BRICS+ in motion! Love to see it.

Between Iran green card and US green card, which one will you accept if freely given?

It really do amazes me how people use their brain. This is not about which "green card" is better. I'll give you an insight. You see what makes America attractive to people like you and millions all around the world? It's decades of pillage, extortion, manipulation and suppression of Africa and its resources among others. This is the war that Iran is fighting, a war against Western hegemony and unipolar world. Africa can be great too if the world don't have to look up to America and the weapons they fashioned against us like the IMF, Worldbank etc. Open your eyes and see the bigger picture. Think critically, please think!!!

Good to see Iran standing strong against big bad bully

Precision strike is different from Emotion strike

What do you call Israel's strikes that's turning Gaza and every living thing in it into rubbles and graveyard? Empathy-guided missiles?

Maamin:
They dont only chant it they work tirelessly to carry out this destruction of Israel..this no amount of lies and twisting of the reality can cover or white wash it, but will always fail. Israel has more advance intelligence in this geopolitical game.

You’re repeating the visible symptoms of the conflict, not examining the root cause. Yes, Iran opposes Israel. Yes, they support militant groups. But again, you’re ignoring why they do. Iran’s stance is reactive, not random. Israel has occupied Palestinian land for decades, violates international law regularly, and has nuclear weapons while refusing to sign the Non-Proliferation Treaty — but Iran is the threat?

You say Iran is “working tirelessly to destroy Israel”, what has Israel done in Gaza and the West Bank for the last 50+ years? Bombings, illegal settlements, assassinations, open-air prisons. If Iran supports armed resistance, it’s because Israel has made peace impossible.

Also, let’s be real, just because Israel has “advanced intelligence” doesn’t mean it’s morally right. The U.S. had “intelligence” before invading Iraq. What happened? A war based on lies. Hundreds of thousands died. No weapons found. Having intelligence doesn’t make a country just, only more capable of controlling the narrative.

What I’m saying is: Don’t reduce this to who has better drones or spies. Look at who’s really preserving sovereignty and who’s enforcing control. Iran is not perfect, far from it, but its opposition to Israel and the West isn’t without deep geopolitical reasons rooted in history, imperialism, and regional resistance.

You’re stuck on “Iran wants to destroy Israel”, but you’re blind to how Israel and its allies have destroyed entire regions — Iraq, Libya, Syria — all under similar justifications. That’s not twisting reality. That is reality. Think critically!

Maamin:
Well analysis put together by you there...but you fail to include the part where Iran keep chanting to destroy Israel and Aemrica for 46years, you omitted the part were Iran has been threatening Death to israel and America for years now. You Also omitted where Iran setup all the terrorist proxies around Israel to further carry out their proxy wars to annihilate the jewish people. This is why America and Israel dont feel safe with Iran nuclear program.

You raised a good point. Someone else has quoted my analysis raising the same points you raised, so see my response to them below. I hope that will answer your question too. If not, feel free to reach out again. I'll be happy to dissect in more detail.

Iran shouting “Death to America” is a political slogan, not a literal military strategy. It’s a chant rooted in anti-imperialism, not a declaration of planned nuclear war or actual genocide. Iran’s leadership has clarified repeatedly that the slogan targets U.S. foreign policy, not American people. It’s no different from chants like “Yankee go home” in Latin America during the Cold War. It's a slogans of resistance, not declarations of war.

Let’s not forget: the U.S. overthrew Iran’s democratic government in 1953, supported Saddam Hussein’s war against Iran (where chemical weapons were used), imposed decades of sanctions, killed General Qassem Soleimani on foreign soil, and surrounded Iran with military bases. Would any sovereign nation stay quiet after that? C'mon man!

Iran’s support for proxies is strategic defense, not random aggression. If you’re surrounded by hostile forces, you build deterrence through alliances. The U.S. does it too — in NATO, with Taiwan, and with Israel. So when Iran does it, suddenly it’s “sponsoring terror,” but when the West does it, it’s called “maintaining global security”? That’s a double standard.

And about the fear of Iran destroying the U.S. Let’s be real. Iran doesn’t have the military capability to “totally destroy” America, and they know it. It’s not about conquest, it’s about resisting domination. The same way Vietnam, Cuba, or Venezuela resisted, Iran is resisting.

If words like “Death to America” justify preemptive strikes, what about U.S. officials calling for “bombing Iran,” “obliterating North Korea,” or saying “Assad must go”? Should those be taken as license to invade Washington?

We can’t take slogans literally for one country and ignore the real violence done by others. If we want peace, we need to understand why countries resist the West — and whether that resistance is self-defense, not pure hatred.

Botragelad:
What exactly is going on in Iran?😂😂😂
Lot of assassinations.

Enjoying the show, boys? Hope you’re all keeping score as Israel wipe another Islamic terrorist off the board. Israel’s on a hot streak, and this is just the warm-up. Stay calm. Stay watching.

Apparently, this guy was Nasrallah’s old bodyguard, who thought he could run. Lebanon to Iraq to Iran, playing hide-and-seek like Mossad wouldn’t find him. Joke’s on him. Mossad’s home turf is everywhere, even in Tehran’s back alleys. Funny guy. 😂

From IRGC generals to nuclear facilities to their so-called "scientists", nobody’s safe. Cross Israel? You’re already in the crosshairs.
Sinwar. Deif. Nasrallah. The list grows. And still, they dare to test Israel!!
Patience. One by one, they fall. And when the next name drops? Bet you’ll be surprised who’s left standing.
Am Yisrael chai.🇮🇱!!

Ah yes, because nothing says ‘moral high ground’ like laughing emojis over targeted killings and international instability. Real grown-up energy there.

Iran must be proud of this man in life and death. Standing strong against western hegemony and influence. Despite their war and propaganda, we know who the real terrorists are.

Amos07:
U have made you point clear. How come about the Iranian proxies used to attack Israel Hezbola, hamas, and the houtis? If am to judge with this your analysis, do you think if Iran is allowed to acquire nuclear weapon they won't use it against Israel via their proxies knowing the consequences of a direct launch? No body is forcing anybody to align with the west, but if you want to stay alone why should it be at the cost of others harmony? Lets forget about propaganda and see things the way they are. Choosing Reason over emotion can never misguide you. Are they the only Arab country that exist? Why aren't other Arab countries attacking Israel as Iran (even with proxies)? Sometimes is not about sentiment. A country is sponsoring terrorist groups to inflict mayhem upon a specific nation and you expect that nation to fold arms and do nothing?

I understand your point and concerns and yes, Iran supports groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis, but to say Iran would hand over nuclear weapons to proxies oversimplifies how nuclear deterrence works and assumes Iran is irrational, which decades of behaviour contradict. Iran knows any use of nuclear weapons, directly or via proxies, would invite complete annihilation of Iran as we know it. Even the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency and Israeli intelligence have repeatedly admitted there’s no proof Iran seeks a bomb or would use it if they had one. For almost 30 years, Netanyahu has been parroting the notion that Iran is 6 months or 2-5 years away from developing nuclear weapons. All proved to be a lie. This was how it was parroted before Iraq invasion and guess what? There was no nuclear weapon in Iraq. What they left behind in Iraq after the invasion was chaos.

If the logic is that supporting militant proxies = intent to launch nukes, then what do we say of the U.S. arming Saudi Arabia in Yemen (where thousands of civilians were bombed), or Israel’s decades-long funding and training of militias? Is every powerful country guilty of sponsoring groups that serve its strategic interests? Of course. But nuclear warfare? That’s a whole different level. No state, not even North Korea has ever dared that route.

Also, it’s not that Iran wants “to stay alone at the cost of others’ harmony.” That assumes harmony exists. The West’s idea of “order” often comes at the expense of national sovereignty. Just look at what happened to Libya and Iraq. Were they trying to harm others or simply choosing an independent path?

As for your question — “Why aren’t other Arab nations attacking Israel?”, that’s precisely the point. The Arab regimes you mention have normalized relations with Israel not because they love peace, but because they’ve been politically or economically pressured by the West. Iran, on the other hand, maintains an independent foreign policy, and that’s what makes it a “problem.”

You rightly mentioned not letting propaganda cloud our views and I completely agree. But Western media has spent decades crafting the narrative of Iran as the aggressor while ignoring or downplaying Israeli occupation, expansion, and disproportionate military actions in Gaza and the West Bank. Let’s not pretend one side holds the moral high ground here.

At the end of the day, the nuclear issue is a pretext. The real issue is about control, deterrence, and resistance to unipolar dominance. That’s what this is about.

Try and make your own analysis and write intelligently with your own arguments, not some thrashy stuff written by one hater somewhere shouting death to America and Jews

Joke's on you - This is my analysis, or you can at least disprove that with the original article I copied it from. I'm using my common sense. Use yours too, trust me you can.
