What is the name of the person that led the invasion
The black African Moorish army was led by a black African Muslim general named Tarik Ibn Ziyad.

That people in Morocco portray him as an Arab, is of the same school of LIES, DECEIT, and THEFT, as the Arabs in Egypt claiming they were the ancient Egyptians, when in fact they are descended from 7th century jihadist invaders of Egypt.

Stop believing the European/Arab WHITEWASHING of African history.

They are born LIARS and THIEVES.

THERE IS NOT A SINGLE ARAB MOORISH STATUE OR PAINTING IN EUROPE. THE MOORS ARE PORTRAYED AS BLACKS.

Go to Egypt and see how they have knocked off the noses from the pharaoh statues, to disguise their African broad noses.

It’s an entire industry, the whitewashing.

They have no real history of their own, so they steal black history and present it as theirs.

Who lead the war to Europe?

Answer please grin grin
What war?

The Moorish invasion of Spain was carried out by black African Moors who captured Andalusia in the year 711.

The term MOOR means ‘Maurus’, meaning BLACK.

The Moors are depicted in ALL European art and artefacts as BLACKS.

You are a BRAINWASHED little Nigerian that knows NOTHING about African history or the MOORS.

You can't even spell the word properly.

It's THE MOORS.

There is no 'E'.

The MOORS were BLACK AFRICANS.

If you go on Google Images and type in ''MOORISH CRESTS'', you will see THOUSANDS of images of medieval European aristocratic family crests and coats-of-arms, with their BLACK AFRICAN progenitors.

You will see NO Arabs, because the Moors were BLACK AFRICANS.

The MOORS ruled large parts of Europe, particularly Spain and Portugal, for over 800 years up till the 1600s.

Their statues are all over Europe, and they are depicted as BLACKS.

They even hold annual FESTIVALS in Europe where the whites wear BLACKFACE in celebration of the Moorish era.

More facts:

Edo was a village that became the capital of Japan in 1603 when a military commander Tokugawa Ieyasu established the Tokugawa Shogunate.

Edo grew into a huge city with a population of over a million by the mid-eighteenth century.

The name was changed to Tokyo in 1868 when the Tokugawa Shogunate ended and the new emperor, Meiji, moved his residence there..

- The title of the Benin kingdom's top military commander was the IYASE.

- A 'Shogunate' is a district managed by an 'Ogun officer' of the type that manned Benin's regions.

The Japanese and the Edo people have a similar form of greeting which is Domo.

Domo in Edo means 'Greetings'.

Domo in Japanese is a way of greeting, and it can work as a 'thank you' in the Japanese world.

Did people from the ancient Benin kingdom conquer Japan?

Many Nigerians don't know that there is a period of Japanese history known as the EDO PERIOD, which lasted from 1603 to 1868.

The Edo Period of Japan was noted for great progress in administration, architecture, and economic development.

Numerous statues and paintings from the Edo Period show clearly African-looking people.

Most interestingly, LINGUISTIC similarities have been unearthed between Edo, Igbo, Yoruba etc, with the Japanese language, including hundreds of human names shared.

Does the Oba of Benin owe Nigerians an explanation on the Benin Kingdom's links with Japan?

By the way, the former name of Tokyo is........Edo.

And the national flag of Japan is..

So it's not about where you were born. With all the miracles God did in Egypt, all the miracle God perform in Israel the Bible says yet they did not believe.
With all the miracles the Jews saw they still kill Jesus disciples and asked them not to preach in His name.

The Chinese, Indians, Japanese, Americans etc did not reject those dresses because "they are colonial relics" this where ur f00Iishness comes to the fore.
They didn't use it because it was inconvenient for them in so many ways, hygiene wise due to the nature of some legal practitioners traveling distances to preside over cases, it was not convenient for them in terms of hot seasons, it was expensive to maintain, some of the early users that rejected it in those countries rejected it because it "makes them look like rats peeping from a hole", some argued it made them look like women because those ages, women were not presiding over legal proceedings.

Then you have Africa where their sole reason for rejecting it is because "it's a colonial relic" are u not f00Iish for rejecting colonial relic while keeping the court and the legal system?
They are all colonial relic.

Other countries maintained their culture according to you, the court, the legal code, the legal proceedings has no place in our culture, it is all borrowed, if u are so loud about rejecting colonial relics while maintaining our culture, then you have faiIed woefully when applying that to the court.

I haven't said not to wear the wig or wear it.

Removing the wig solely because "it's a colonial relic" while you keep the court, the legal system et'al is profound f00Iishness.


"Innocent until proven guilty" is a colonial relic, I'm thinking we should reject it because it's a colonial relic too.
Legal proceedings are colonial relic, we should do away with them too right?


Remind me again why think we should keep the Court, the legal codes and system since we are hell bent on doing away with colonial conventions.

The way u reason is a plague to the society.
Stop being an imbeci.le.

Indians, Chinese, Japanese etc, do not reason like this your cockroach reasoning.

They do not say “Oh because we use this or that aspect of western convention, therefore we must dress like them, talk like them, act like them, and wear their hair on top of our heads!”

Chinese borrowed heavily from western technology. Do you see them struggling to speak English or borrow christian religion or Islam, or adopt western political systems etc?

NO.

They take what they need from outside while maintaining their cultural independence and dignity.
