NaijaPikinGidi: Please don't give yourself headaches because of this brainless pig!Ag shame, his brain hurts now? "Laughing" while burning on the inside, is he? |
rka1: Whatever you sayI'm sorry you've had to be reduced to this. Maybe next time you'll think before you advance an argument. |
rka1: This is the funniest comment I have come across on this threadYou've lost the argument. You might as well "laugh" as you burn inside. |
rka1: You must have been looking in the mirror mateyClearly my business is done. You offer no substance now. I'd be eroding substance if I played this childish game. |
drag_on: lol. i guess the park rangers teach your millitary tactics,direct their assaults.and supply them with logistics.A revealing, lame joke that belies your resignation to the fact that this is not a military-led operation. It only serves to make you look silly and defeated. |
drag_on: once again,your millitary is involved and failed patheticaly. I am surprised you have not seen the parallels.Involved as a side-resource and leading are two different things. You have full autonomy, leadership and strategic room to play. You've failed. |
rka1: By the same token, America and NATO failed in Afghanistan and Iraq and all other countries have failed around the world.Now you compare yourselves to militaries that were fighting hundreds of miles from home. You have the advantage of sovereignty, a state of emergency, the full support of the tax payer and are uninhibited by strict laws in the affected states. Yet, you continue to fail. |
rka1: I feel sorry for you. What a sad individual.You're projecting your own state of mind. From a spirited argument to a sorry one-liner. How the "mighty" have fallen. Facts do that. They deflate lunatic pride. |
drag_on: Neither have you stopped the poachers, i hear you will be out of rhinos by 2025 if not earlier.They wont last forever.Once again, take that up with our minister of environmental affairs. Not our military. Wrong hole. Wrong tree to bark up. Face up to your failures and be happy. |
rka1: Just to show what a BH sympathiser you are. Nobody cares what you think, you quoteAs if I worry about what you call me. BH is born of Naai-geria. So, these are your own brothers. Cry me a river. Now that your arguments have fallen by the wayside, you lash out in "my-wits-end-here" frustration. You cared enough to argue to the point of abandoning your arguments in dead-end-valley. |
drag_on: Thats my point @ swanky@vodamail,hundreds of boko haram islamists have been killed/captured,but because they dont care about their lives they keep coming. Containing insurgents dressed as civilians in an assymetrical war in an area as massive as North east Nigeria is no mean feat.You have a state of emergency. The state of emergency has an objective. It can't last forever. The objective hasn't been met. It goes without saying that some BH members will be killed and captured. But that won't allow you to lift the state of emergency, will it? You have failed and continue to fail everyday. |
drag_on: Cry all you like,your military cant beat back poachers,instead the poachers out smart them.If you cant deal with poachers do you really think you have a prayer against an islamic insurgency?Our military does not lead the anti-poaching effort. You tried to argue against the simple fact and you clearly have given up. You now want you try another angle. Be my guest. The point will continue to stand in your way and will frustrate your attempts at diversion. You lead in Naai-geria and have failed yourselves, your people and all of africa. Our military is being led in South Africa. Take your complaint up with the leader - the minister of environmental affairs - and be happy. Diversion plan detailed. |
drag_on: SANDF And Poaching:I repeat: the anti-poaching programme is not owned by the military. The Programme is owned by the ministry of environmental affairs. The ministry determines who does what. Being "involved" as a resource is one thing. "Leading" the Programme is quite another. Your military leads the anti-boko haram Programme, has a state of emergency to back it up and has full autonomy. You have failed to make your case because you overlooked a crucial distinguishing factor. |
drag_on: Enjoy:You're wasting your time. The anti-poaching programme is not owned by the military. You're barking up the wrong tree. And poaching is not an insurgency anyway. It's illicit trade and a crime. You attempts at diversion fail. You have a state of emergency and have the right to limit citizens' basic rights. You have deployed your military in full and have military autonomy in the affected states. Yet, you fail. ![]() |
agaugust: i have a BSc degree in Accounting, with experience in a world class Audit firm.Ja right. You're a jack-of-all-trades and you're 32. Pull the other one. Red yellow showed us that you are 40+ year-old dreamer stuck in Abuja and Lagos. But he didn't tell us anything we didn't already know. You arguments alone show us you aren't half what you dream you are. Just give us arguments and content; and leave your "qualifications" out of it. That won't make your arguments any stronger. |
agaugust: you are a white-man with less education than a black man...it hurts your over-bloated ego.You don't know what my education level is. That argument alone exposes your delusions. But seeing as you asked, I'm a qualified attorney with an LLM and an MBA. I work and live in the US where I'm on temporary assignment. All your rubbish is immediately apparent to me. You've been in Austin to see the military headquarters but that's about it. You don't live here and your arguments prove it. I live in Texas and you can't tell me anything and you can't lie it me about "working for a military research company" here. That's rubbish. You wish you were educated but unfortunately, you aren't. Accounting is not finance. You made a finance argument and called it accounting. You claim to have an MBA, yet you don't know the difference between finance and accounting. As for your claims to American citizenship - argument for another day. |
drag_on: You have not contained poachers yet.!!Take that up with our department of environmental affairs. They lead the effort and determine who does what. Your military has a full state of emergency (therefore, autonomy) and resources to back it up. Weak argument re: poachers. |
swanky@vodamail:Well, the biggest lie is that he "studied government sector accounting". He says he studied accounting and then he proceeds to make a "public finance" argument. You know you're dealing with an uneducated dreamer when psychology and psychiatry are suddenly the same thing. |
rka1: http://www.china.org.cn/world/Off_the_Wire/2013-10/31/content_30453465.htmThe "killing of boko haram" fighters has been announced since the early days of the state of emergency. That tired "story" doesn't wash anymore - assuming it ever did. We all know nothing announced can be independently verified anyway. Even your announcement of Shekau's "death" has failed to prove your military competent. Fact is you're stuck in the abyss that's an internal insurgency. A small-scale war of sorts and you can't even dream of being useful in Africa at this point. When the thread started, your claim to glory was your "usefulness" in other African countries. Well, let's hear you try that again - after you get over the minor issue of abandoned missions in Mali and Darfur. And the minor issue of insurgents that have no fear of your military inside its own sovereign land. |
agaugust: .The same South African army that opens up economic benefits for the nation. The same South African army that sits happily in the DRC. The useless Naai-gerian army? Oh, they abandoned their missions in Mali and Darfur and are waging a senseless war inside Naai-geria. Totally incapacitated and of no use to anyone outside Naai-geria. Brawn. Evident. Brains? Not so much. |
Not to be forgotten - The uselessness of the Naai-gerian military, which is clearly not feared in its own country. Nigeria: Dozens Feared Dead As Boko Haram Attacks Damaturu Abuja — Dozens, including soldiers, police, civilians and insurgents had been killed on Thursday when gunmen suspected to be members of the Boko Haram launched multiple attacks in various locations in Damaturu, the Yobe State capital. ... Security sources told Weekly Trust that some of the areas attacked include the headquarters of the 233 Battalion of the Nigerian Army in Kukareta located on the Damaturu-Maiduguri road; the police Criminal Investigation Department (CID) office, police area command office, Mobile Base and C Division police station all along Gujba road, Damaturu. Many checkpoints, public buildings and private residential quarters were also attacked. http://allafrica.com/stories/201310260343.html |
The benefits of fighting smart. The useless Naai-geria is all brawn and no brains. South Africa on the other hand... ______ SA, DRC sign Grand Inga project treaty 30 October 2013 South Africa and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) on Tuesday signed a crucial treaty on the Grand Inga hydropower project, which could eventually become the largest hydroelectric project in the world, with the potential to power half of the continent. President Jacob Zuma made the announcement earlier on Tuesday while addressing the Parliament of the DRC, where is arrived, accompanied by a strong ministerial and business delegation, for a two-day state visit on Tuesday. Zuma said that the signing treaty was a major step towards the realisation of the long-cherished dream of the people of the DRC. "I must convey how particularly pleased and excited I am by the progress taking place towards the realisation of the Grand Inga Hydropower Project. This incredible feat of human ingenuity, when completed, will have the capacity to power Africa and indeed to export electricity beyond the continent." The Grand Inga project will seek to harness the power potential of the Congo River, sub-Saharan Africa's greatest waterway. "South Africa is extremely proud to be working so closely with the DRC in realising this accomplishment," Zuma said. "This represents one of the most ambitious projects ever undertaken on the African continent, and one which will long be a resounding symbol of the rise of Africa and her people." SA 'ready to share experience with DRC' Zuma said South Africa stood ready to share its experiences and expertise in helping the DRC to further strengthen and deepen their democracy as well as to further entrench their impressive commitment to human rights. "We look forward to extending and deepening the close relations between our two great nations. We can do this across the many areas of shared interest, and in pursuit of a better future for our two great nations and peoples. "In the spirit of ubuntu, which means 'I am because we are', and which is a core principle underpinning the work of the South African government, we will continue to stand side by side with the DRC. "We will work together in seeing this great nation assume its rightful place as a fellow powerhouse of the African continent." He added that South Africa would forever be grateful for the solidarity it had received from the Congolese people during the country's liberation struggle. Concern over conflict in eastern DRC Zuma said it has always been South Africa's firm belief that in order to overcome poverty and to achieve prosperity through development, it was imperative that the essential preconditions of peace, security, and stability were first put in place. He said South Africa remained deeply concerned by the enduring conflict in eastern DRC, perpetrated by local and externally supported armed groups on innocent Congolese civilians, and stood in solidarity with the DRC in overcoming this serious challenge. "We deplore the devastating loss of life, the human suffering, the displacement of more than a million civilians and the damage to property which this intolerable situation has resulted in. I extend the deepest sympathy of the people of South Africa to the Congolese people for the hardship they continue to endure as a result of this conflict." Zuma commended the government of the DRC on its efforts in the Kampala talks aimed at ending the conflict. "Together, we united in sending the message that for too long have the people of the DRC endured the incalculable suffering as a result of recurrent cycles of conflict. "Enough is enough. The time for peace is now, and to those who would challenge this for their own self-interests, we stand firm in the message that your time is now up, lay down your arms, as no longer will the misery you inflict be tolerated." Angola-DRC-SA Tripartite mechanism meets Meanwhile, ahead of Zuma's visit, International Relations Minister Maite Nkoana-Mashabane joined other senior officials at the 1st Session of the Ministerial Meeting of the Angola-DRC-South Africa Tripartite Mechanism on Dialogue and Cooperation. Nkoana-Mashabane said critical decisions had been made on the implementation of the tripartite mechanism. "We have rededicated ourselves to make this unique mechanism a success," she said. "We have agreed to work towards the operationalisation of the permanent secretariat, and we have committed ourselves to speed up the ratification process of the MoU on the tripartite mechanism." Established in March, the tripartite mechanism is a body designed to help consolidate peace in the Great Lakes region, and safeguard the conditions favourable to the implementation of the Framework Accord for Peace, Stability and Cooperation in the DRC, signed in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in February.

paniki: You can spin it however much you like it wont to the fact that the people in those countries live better lives than you peeps.Sorry - Paniki, I read too quickly while working on something else. Comment modified. |
morpheus24: FAct still remains.....Where would south Africa be without white people. Just another African country not a Pseudo African nation.That's a question. It's not evidence. As the prosecution, you have to lead evidence. Your case isn't advancing because you have none. Discharge your onus of proof. You lead evidence first. You don't just cross examine like an idîot prosecutor. Where is your evidence-in-chief? |
Proud.SAfrican:In other words, you are asking him for proof. |
morpheus24: Right Right,Burden of proof not discharged. The small minded prosecution fails. |
morpheus24: You'd have to point to where I alluded otherwise.I don't have to. I'm the defense. I don't have the burden of proof. You do. |
morpheus24: HahahahaThat's all I need do. Dismissed and ignored is your nothingness. Our case confirmed and the defense rests. Yours - not so much. |
morpheus24: The answer_ Botswana..does not satisfy the questin posed. Cities in Botswana o again are comparable to cities in Nigeria but not so to "The Pseduo African nation." This is illustrated in the pics of the attachments given. In addition, in relative terms Botswana's size , GDP would count agains them,Therefore it does not satisfy the "on Par" arguement.All you have is a question and no evidence. Eat humble pie and accept that Proudly has shamed you. You are stuck, mr one-trick-pony. You prosecuted a case that you don't have the mental withwhartal to close. Death to your seed. ![]() |
morpheus24: ****YAWN*******Cry us a river Mr I'll-repeat-the-same-thing-till-am-black-and-blue. You've become a joke and your stuff sits unread. You write long words in frustration because you have no evidence to lead and therefore, no case. Only two things matter - the rest being rubbish. 1. You admitted Abuja can't be compared to Joburg. 2. All4naai confirmed that Naai-geria is backward. That's all we need to know about the state if the Naai-gerian blek. Of course you can lead evidence, which will never happen. Your case is dead and ours proven by 1 and 2. |
all4naija: If you guys cannot do anything than complain about the thread, then, it's your problem and there is nothing wrong about asking question. Yes, South Africa would have been yet another backward country like Nigeria without the white!Now, there's a good boy. Embrace your backwardness and be happy. |
morpheus24: Don't change the subject CraigB...... the first answer to my question by the first brave soul ... falls shortI speak to what I am interested in. And what I am interested in is your confirmation that Abuja cannot be compared to Johannesburg. And your inability to rest your case, of course. We hope you will have dreamt up a different strategy by tomorrow - which will redeem your bleks. As it is, it's been shown that your uselessness is self-inflicted or caused. As for South Africa, all we have is a question. No causal link proven. ![]() Hapless prosecution. This is what happens when you frame a case based on emotions (self-hate in this case). |
