Let’s get some facts in order, because emotions are running high and misinformation is everywhere

Claim 1: “Israel attacked Iran first, and Iran is a sovereign nation.”

This argument keeps popping up, but it ignores years and decades of provocation and aggression from Iran.

Rebuttal:
Iran has been attacking Israel for years indirectly by funding, arming, and commanding proxies like Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza, the Houthis in Yemen, and Shia militias in Iraq and Syria. These groups have been consistently launching rockets and bombs into Israeli territory. This isn’t hearsay — this is confirmed by global intelligence agencies and even openly admitted by Iran’s own leadership.

On October 7, Hamas launched a brutal and unprecedented terror attack on Israel — killing civilians, taking hostages, and sparking the current escalation. That attack was the first shot in this round of war, not anything Israel did to Iran directly.

Yes, Israel is now responding — as any nation would. And they’re doing it strategically, going after each proxy one by one — Hamas, then other militias, and now possibly turning their attention to Iran itself, the source of it all.

Even Hezbollah — Iran’s top ally — is now publicly saying they won’t join the war if Iran is directly attacked. That tells you everything. Iran is mostly alone, because even its so-called allies know how reckless this has become.

Claim 2: “If Israel and the U.S. have nuclear weapons, why can’t Iran have nukes too?”

On the surface, this might sound like a fair question but look deeper.

Rebuttal:
There’s a massive difference between who holds nuclear weapons and how they intend to use them.

In Iran, every parliamentary session ends with chants of “Death to Israel, Death to America.” This isn’t symbolic. Iran backs it up with real-world violence through its proxies. They’ve made their intentions crystal clear — they want to wipe Israel off the map. So why should a nation with that mindset be allowed to have nuclear weapons?

Think of it like this: it’s okay for a police officer to carry a gun, because his job is to protect people. But should we hand a gun to an armed robber who already told us he plans to shoot someone? That’s exactly what giving Iran nukes would look like.

The U.S. and Israel having nukes doesn’t mean everyone should. There’s a difference between deterrence and destruction. Iran isn’t seeking peace. They are seeking power to enforce their ideology through violence.


Iran is too small for Isreal to destroy. Imagine , if Isreal was to do the same thing Iran is doing ? Isreal and now Us are the only country that would announce an impending attack to you civilians to move , hence targeting only military installations but Iran doesn’t give no eff about civilians . They delight in blowing up hospitals. Please if you want to Arthur , argue with logic and not emotions or your religious affiliations or sentiments . Ire o

The way APC go tahr beat El-Rufai and his candidate in Kaduna 2027 election go too loud. Dem go beat am like say e steal goat for market 🤣🤣🤣

Ttalk:
E don finish. As in at this rate Peter Obi is the next to decamp.

Mainwhile El Rufai will be regretting his missstep.

On a serious note I don't subscribe to a ruling party without opposition, every ruling government needs a formidable opposition to put it in its toe.

LP would have been the best opposition party if not for the hatred and envy that the Obidients attached to their campaign

DesChyko:
VATs are paid by the headquarters of the business, not necessarily the field of their business or where the highest consumption is recorded. That not withstanding, VAT is borne by the final consumer.

Take for example, Milk and Egg products. Most of the headquarters of these companies are in Lagos (possibly Ogun too), but the highest VATs on them are actually paid by the South Easterners who consume more of this, closely followed by South-South. However, the VATs remitted to the Nigerian purse through their headquarters in Lagos.

So while it counts as VAT remitted by Lagos, it was actually paid by other regions. This explains a bit of why Lagos (and possibly Ogun) have VATs that dwarves the remaining states. Another advantage would be states with high oil and gas sector activities, and government presence too.

Does that do a bit of justice?

It is safe to say that South East is the parasite region. Unproductive Region

Benue State generates as much as the whole South East combined .

Those following Peter Obi, tell me the legacy of that man and other elected officials in the South East?

Wispower:
How do you know that it was the IPOBS that were celebrating the senseless killings in the Benue State?

ebucha:
Never mock others when their house is burning because the table may turn around. They were all over the social media celebrating the attacks on Benue state. Today it's their turn.

SmartPolician:
The ideological gap between Northern Nigeria and Southern Nigeria is so wide like trekking from Abuja to Lagos. Most times, I wonder what a president from the South can do to please those Northern folks because the two regions don't even share anything in common.

Wickedfact:
There is no Yoruba man who supported Igbos with the Biafran mentality and didn't come back crying. None.

Fajuyi laid down his life for his Igbo guest, Igbos said who asked him to.

Banjo led the ONLY Biafran offensive during the war. He was executed by Biafrans while Ojukwu was allowed to flee.

Soyinka was jailed for supporting Biafra while Achebe was busy nacking college girls in America. Achebe's kinsmen are insulting Soyinka today.

Seun supported Gbadebo and Obi last election. Till today, Obidients are desperately trying to bring him down.

Any Yoruba that supports Obi and Obidients at this point, you are basically suicidal.

So also was the tinubu movement, especially in the run up to the governor elections in Lagos.
