Israel is God's nation whether you like it or not. If they sin, God will chastice them and if they repent, God restores them. It is a covenant He had between Himself and Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

You love them, you prosper. You hate them, you suffer.

If God is on their side, i dont think it is the US that should now be in loggerheads with or striking Iran.

The clown in the WH calling it a military operation, is their operation sustainable?
Whenever you see Iran quiet, surprise is brewing under the surface.

For how many months can the US stay in the Strait of Hormuz, how many ships have they being able to escort across the Strait.
Have oil prices dropped ? The secret of America's economic strength and influence is controlling the Middle East and its reaources.

The day a new and alternative financial system is created so that no country have sole powers to block financial flows,and the petrodollar era fades, America will start to feel the heat.

Who in the world takes America serious especially if you are a student of world history or international politics. Whenever you see America going to war, its economic interest will be number one .

terrezo2002:
Maybe you don't know God and His words. No country can defeat Israel unless God allows it temporarily. Go and check the bible of the history of Israel. They are undefeated because God is with them.
Fighting them is putting yourself in trouble.

Always draw a line between the Biblical Isrealites and the State of Isreal . It is not the same. Is everybody living in the so called State of;Isreal an ancestral Jew ?
Being called a Jew means two different things.
They cant be defeated but they could be killed in millions by Hitler.

ColdHunter:
I just tire.

Africans pursuing the wrong things.

Australia as a continent is smaller than Africa, how has that made the Afriacn continent better?

Australia is not a continent.
If Australia is a continent, then mention the countries in it.
Australia has districts, counties and pronvinces.

oneMalik:
Us has her problems and therefore can not help ATM .

if no be foolishness , Trump to help you ?

una too mumu abeg !

The Trump they are even calling sef does not have the moral qualification to intervene. Trump himself does not behave like a democrat, he behaves like a King. He is also a sore loser. Does Trump no what democracy is all about, a powermonger and narcissist.

seunmsg:
What exactly is wrong with reopening a 2005 case? Atiku paid Ikemefuna Okeke to help him get documents about a 1993 case that was dismissed by a court and you all saw nothing wrong in that. So, why should a 2005 case not be reopened?

Any case can be reopened as long as it is a criminal case, even after 40 years, as long as it is a criminal case and not a civil dispute .
That is what the law says .

Gov. Seyi Makinde knows his boundaries, try that to the Ooni of Ife and get cursed by more than 201 dieties, your political career will be finally buried.

The Ooni is not an ordinary traditional ruler, he is a King as well as the spiritual head of the Yorubas, a chief priest and custodian of Yoruba culture.
There are some Kings that cannot be disrespected in Yorubaland, you will regret your life.

Chienex24:
War started in February 2026. Nigeria has been experiencing more severe hardship since buhari entered power, now worsened by Tinubu who entered in 2023. So your rubbish talk of Nigeria experiencing hardship because of the war is what it is: rubbish talk.

Trump actually called it a military operation, because it is just to force Iran to the negotiation table. If it was a war, there would have been nothing left of Iran. This war is basically Israel's war, not USA. USA are basically toying with them

You believe that shit they feed you on western media, The Isreal's war plan was to topple the regime and install a puppet regime with the help of the US.

The US war plan to destroy Iran nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities. That was why they were assasinating political and military leaders in Iran thinking the people would revolt, but it didnt work.

The US never wanted negotiations, but their plans for Iran was not working.

Before the war started in February, they were already in negotiations. They struck Iran in the midst of negotiations. That is why they are not taking the US seriously.

To now say they want to force Iran to negotiation table is illogical, if not for Pakistan there would not be a ceasefire agreement in the first place and because of the political pressure on Trump in Washington.

For the US now telling us it is a military operation is a fat lie. Military operation of how many months with thousands of troops and military aircraft deployed.

The military option was not working and they are now waging the economic war option which is unlikely to work as well .The US military cant sustain this kind of operation.
The US itself is a falling empire- the empire of debt. It is only a matter of time.

hegelian:
you know nothing john snow... at the time of US attack on Iraq, Iraq was far more powerful and ruthless than iran..iran wasnt this crazy at the time... the mega growth of iran to threat level was obama doing y dashing them free money, allowing them to operate without consequences...

It is you who need to dig up history, Iraq was powerful and ruthless than Iran, yet they could not win the Iraq-Iran war, with massive casualties and destruction on both sides. If Iran was not powerful, and ruthless, why did President Bush mentioned Iran in his Axis of evil.

Why was Isreal's Mossad assassinating Iranian nuclear scientists in the early 2000's.
All Iranian proxies have also existed as at that time including Hezbollah. Hezbollah has being fighting Isreal as far back as the late 90's to early 2000s.

Even as at that time, they already had a space and ballistic missile programme. Iranians have always being resilient and stoic.

Infiltration of the West into that region is because of oil because American economic strength and influence is centered around oil .

P1PrinceKT:
Said by somebody who strikes during negotiations.
Nobody will take you serious

What nobody seems to understand is that when you start a war with a country during negotiations, you have destroyed trust and no one will take you serious . That is now the language and body language of the Iranians .

Welrez:
I guess you are one of those justifying the genocidal activities in the Middle Belt. Allow your enemy to own nuclear weapons when you are in control.

What does Iran have to do with Genocidal activities in the Middle Belt ? Some people like chasing shadows.

lesbiconverter:
he's not killing Iranians. that's the reason the war is taking longer. he's only going after the IRGC

Who should he go after? Killing Iranian civilians will be war crimes and the US President knows that.

They can only go after IRGC and the Military? That is why the war is senseless in the first place.

Killing Iranians wont win the war, it will escalate the war. It could win a war in Nigeria but not in Iran, Iranians are not wired that way .

Dotherightthing:
Trump is just a TACO

If it were George Bush, this war would have been over since 5 months ago with Iran completely CONQUERED

Nonsense!!!

What would George Bush do differently ? Why didnt George Bush invade Iran despite naming it as part of his so-called axis of evil.

It is not that past presidents were idiots for not taking military action against Iran.

War dynamics are different between various countries, toppling a regime in Iraq does not replicate it in Iran. The dynamics are different. The US was dragged into it by Isreal.

The war was a senseless war right from the start.

Everything is not by gragra. Winning a war is not abóut destruction, it is all about achieving your war aims and goals.

So as the US achieved their war goals in Iran ?
if they have achieved it why are they still there ?

saddler:
External reserves increasing and the poverty in the land is increasing. The purchasing power of the people is decreasing.

No job, no security, currency is worth shiit.

Tinubu economics

All these complaints is just temporary, all the problems we are facing as a nation is not only caused by government policy.

To increase purchasing power, we need to create wealth and consume what we produce.

Purchasing power will keep decreasing as long as we remain an import dependent nation.

Bringing back subsidy will ground the Nigerian economy, Bringing back subsidy to start importation of petroleum products does not make economic sense.

We need to help the local refining industry to grow. Once
more refiners come on board, gasoline prices will start to drop.

b0rn2fuck:
This election fit be end of Nigeria, Tinubu don use style create iru ekun and they are opening location and recouping in Masses, he is smart, he doesn't trust the North

Your comment is off topic. What does Iru Ekun have to do with the Boko Haram attack on APC gov. candidate convoy in Borno.

Kalashnikov49:
Content creators..

Show the bodies of those killed..


Rubbish

What do we need the pictures of the bodies for? You wan eat am ?

The life of a Doubting Thomas is not always smooth. They live a life of struggle because they lack trust.

I dont think bodies of casualties need to be shown in security situations like this .

Typing:
Not true.
In 2023 I used my funds to campaign for Tinubu. Even on Nairaland, so many people insulted me for supporting him. The North thought Tinubu will fix Nigeria. We never knew Tinubu is this incompetent.

But the North will amend her mistake. We are going to vote our own Atiku. Who will make Nigeria great.

You will keep making the same mistakes, Insha Allah. To come here and lament come 2031.

autoez:
Maybe, in a strange way, their departure is also a wake-up call for us. For decades, we have depended heavily on foreign companies, foreign capital, foreign products and foreign expertise to keep our economy moving. Now that some of them are leaving, perhaps it is time for Nigerians to look inward and ask ourselves a very painful but important question: what happens if we finally decide to build Nigeria for Nigerians?

I don't celebrate the hardship that comes with companies leaving. Ordinary Nigerians are the ones who feel the consequences through job losses, higher prices and reduced opportunities. But I also refuse to believe that Nigeria's destiny is tied permanently to the presence of foreign companies.

We have the people. We have the brains. We have the natural resources. We have the entrepreneurs. We have young Nigerians who are exceptionally talented and capable of building world-class businesses. What we have lacked for too long is the environment, consistency, leadership and courage to truly build.

So if a foreign company can no longer survive here, let us not simply sit down and mourn its departure. Let Nigerian entrepreneurs ask, “What can we build that will replace what they left behind?” Let our engineers create. Let our farmers produce. Let our manufacturers manufacture. Let our software developers build. Let our young people innovate instead of constantly looking for a way out.

And to the foreign companies that can afford to wait, wait. Those who believe in Nigeria and remain through the difficult years may eventually witness something extraordinary. Because Nigeria will not remain down forever.

There will come a time when the economy stabilises. There will come a time when the naira strengthens. There will come a time when industries rise again, infrastructure improves and the enormous Nigerian market becomes even more attractive.

And when that day comes, we must not be ashamed that we had to rebuild ourselves from almost nothing.

I genuinely believe Nigeria can rise again. Not because our problems are small, they are enormous but because the potential of this country is even greater.

Perhaps this is our painful season of learning to stand on our own feet.

Let us stop asking, “Who is coming to save Nigeria?” and start asking, “What can I do to help build the Nigeria I want my children to inherit?”

One day, I pray we will look back at these difficult years and realise that they were not the end of Nigeria's story, but the beginning of a new chapter.

Nigeria will be great again. Insha Allah. 🇳🇬❤️

I really appreciate your comment. You ooze positivity and optimism.

How great this country would be, if everybody has this mindset and believe that greatness resides in us, and we need to start rebuilding our country.

We have brains in this country but we dwell more on negativity.

But once we change our attitude and mindset, everything will begin to fall in the right places. Attitude makes the difference.

chicfarmer:
Why you no go praise government wey allow you FIX Cement prices as you like, thereby declaring mind boggling profits while the masses suffer?

So you expect government to fix cement prices, many people forgot our economy is built on the capitalist ideology, most expect a socialist model. Capitalist nations with a deregulated petroleum industry dont subsidise petroleum products especially if we want the industry to grow.

They may subsidise transportation, by providing cheaper energy sources. But the problem we have in this country is that we are too conservative, we try to stay in our comfort zones without seeking alternative solutions instead blaming government.

A country where people are too conservative cannot witness much economic progress and its citizens will keep complaining and wailing every four years .

Mattswaggz:
You call this "going to the moon". ......it was way higher than this before the ceasefire agreement which Iran violated and now they're losing their grip on the strait they were using as a bargaining chip as well.

It has fell lower than $97 before, but it is now going back up. Inflation is going up globally. Central Banks across the globe are now raising interest rates to curb inflation. Even the US Federal Reserve is expected to raise its Federal funds rate by 25bps this September. And the inflation is caused by unending war.
If the war drags till October, there is a high probability, the Republicans will lose seats in Congress .

Gotocourt:
IRGC needs to go, Iran has no central command.

Yes, Iran has no central command. It was deliberately designed that way to frustrate known war strategies of the US.

The US uses
the shock and awe war strategy, The IRGC does not. If the IRGC has super precision weapons it will be difficult for the US to contain them.

Even without those weapons, they were able to deplete expensive US patriot interceptor missiles stockpiles in record time.

The US always fail to learn from history, and all their efforts always end in futility.

Kalashnikov49:
Now..is that the new talking point?

Tinubu betrayed MKO ABIOLA na..

Una go cry tire

Betrayed MKO Abiola, in what sense ? Did he betrayed him because he went on exile ?

Remember he didnt accept any post in the military regime, so in what way did he betray MKO Abiola? but some members of MKOs party did . Did Enahoro, Pa Rewane, Fayemi etc also betrayed Abiola.

We knew those who betrayed Abiola ?

Mirasteel:
And it will never be under the sole control of US, never in this life.

All these madness by this orange clown in the WH, is just for the time being. He cant be president forever.

All what he is renaming that has nothing to do with US history will be reversed.

He is just writing a bad history for himself as a US President.

Past Presidents stood by Isreal, not a puppet of Isreal.

And i have never seen a scenario where the body language of allies would insinuate to a US President that you are on your own, it shows something wrong with Trump himself.

He has character flaws which make him unfit for the Presidency in the first place.

He is a spoilt brat, and he has not really had a long political career like past presidents just a business tycoon.

MEGAWATCH:
100 percent supported....


After that arrest Tinubu for us and rename that his fraudulent coastal highway with Nnamdi KANU super highway.

We love you....


Thanks the best president in history of the world.




🤜🤜🤜🤜🤜🤜🤜🤜🤜🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Look at this one, cheering Mr Power Drunk, We love you, how many of you ? You have failed to realized that Trump is a big loser.

I wonder what his presidential profiles will look like after he leaves office, very shallow and mediocre.

I have gone through US presidential profiles and Trump does not come even close to the Top 3,

Majority of you people who comment on this forum, were born in the 90's. and most of what you know about the US is what you are being fed through western media and the web(Google).

Maybe you meant to say Trump is the worst President in the history of the US and the world.

Very arrogant and talking to leaders of countries you call allies like kindergarten kids. It has never happened in world history and never being worse like this .

HacheNoire:
Trust me! Israel will become history someday!

Seems you forgot the apartheid state of South Africa. It took long but freedom came.

In this case, Israel will cease to exist.

That is why the South Africans believe they share the same destiny with the Palestinians and support the Palestinian cause.

Nelson Mandela and Archbishop Desmond Tutu all support the Palestinian Cause.

But to some ignoramuses, anybody who does not support injustice against the Palestinians is an enemy of Isreal.

If Isreal is indeed invincible, Isreal does not need to be apprehensive and always on the edge, always appprehensive that other countries are building their militaries.

Even Isreal does not trust the US, Perfect love casteth out fear.

What that tells you is that in this modern time , a coalition of countries can destroy Isreal.

A country that God be for and non can be against should not be so apprehensive, it is a fight for survival, If God be for you, why fight for survival.

I pity this State of Isreal if it continues this path of violating international law.

aworatak:
The level of impunity committed by this cankerworm APC administration is deeply troubling that It would take a strong willed leader to clear the rot they created.

Impunity is not peculiar to any administration, it has being an hallmark and trademark of past and previous administrations. Rot has being created over the years .

Impunity is in the blood of any average Nigerian politician especially when they walk the corridors of power.

Racoon:
Same Tinubu that have enmeshed about 67M more Nigerians into abject poverty according to IMF and other economic groups? The issue should be how has he improved the poverty index he inherited, not how he wants to.

Meanwhile, Tinubu's govt claimed he has spent 680B just to lift 10M from poverty by paying 25k? What impact can this money make in today's Nigeria; Kulikulí, Akara or roasting Corn business? I am so much disappointed in many Yorubas who were thought to be sound but who have been shamelessly defending these obvious failures.

Don't even mention IMF, all those global bretton woods organisations don't even mean well for Africa's developing economies because they are controlled by imperialist forces who want to keep Africa under its claws. They are two- mouthed, their words do not align with their actions. They were the ones who said subsidy was not sustainable and should be removed.

IMF was not created to alleviate poverty in less developed economies but to put them under perpetual economic subjugation.

The conditionalities they gave countries for access to loans is even anti- masses because IMF was built out of the capitalist economic ideology not socialist ideology.

And when we are talking about reforms, reforms wont change your poverty index overnight.

And you think that will be achieved in four years. Did China's economic reforms which started in the 70 and 80s changed its poverty index in just 4 years ?

plessis:
What do you expect from a king of thugs and rascals?

Your mouth we dey run like diarrhoea, go land you in trouble in no distant time.

I dont know why people take issues personal.
The king has a right to his own opinion and sane Nigerians and Yorubas will align, Chikena, no long thing.

Na you dey run thugs and rascals for him ba. You go narrate tire.

Jevica:
Ooni concentrate on your throne. You are not the spoke person of Tinubu. You people should respect yourself abit

He is not talking to you. Dont take it personal. He is addressing his subjects. It was the occasion of the moment that called for such statement.

An Oba cannot concentrate on his throne, only a madman will concentrate on a throne.
A king is a social and political being, so dont deceive yourself.

DatNiggaDaz:


Ooni is not saying the truth and he has never said any truth since he started partying with the coven of mandate snatchers and grabbers

The Oo ni has lost his relevance. He should declare as a politician of APC instead of running helter skelter

Keep deceiving yourself,If the Ooni has lost relevance ? which King now has relevance? A highly respected traditional ruler among his subjects and far away from the shores of Nigeria.

Every Ooni of Ife that has ascended the throne has commanded respect in Ile Ife and across the shores of Nigeria.

Now tell me which of these Oonis was not involved in politics? Is it Ooni Aderemi Atobatele, who was an active member of AG, or Ooni Sijuwade ?

Once again, keep deceiving yourself. The Ooni is highly reverred in Ile Ife and Ife Constittuency.

greatiyk4u:
In terms of dollar growth yet when we try to measure their so called increased allocation to states in terms of dollar the data bois will ask if we are using dollar in Nigeria

Real economy growth is like pregnancy, you can hide it no matter how hard you try...all these theories are just to confused their creditors for more debt accumulation


IRONY OF LIFE
Peter Obi is suing Kenneth Okonkwo to release his secret to the world to see while Tinubu is begging g America not to release his dirty past and you are still confused who deserves to lead Nigeria?

No one is clean out of all these candidates, Tinubu ,Obi and Atiku, that is why character assasination can't work during electioneering,
you cannot assasinate other peoples character, if your own character is questionable.

Much of Atiku's Character has been revealed in Obasanjo book "My Watch" .

Asmanthinket:
you soud very funny.As it is now, both the political and military systems in Iran have been destroyed. Iran has no leader. No. Body can come out and say boldly that he is the leader of Iran because of the fear of Israel.

I have told you guys here severaly that Israel is God's people, and any country that fights her is fighting God. You can only sobdue them when God is not happy with them.

Have you ever seen a country without a leader, dey play.


I am a Christian but i dont believe that balderdash that this so called State of Isreal is the Isrealites in the days of Moses.

The only protection that Isreal enjoys is the US veto powers in the Security Council allowing it to act with impunity.
If not Isreal would have being dealt with along time ago.

Besides, Isreal is a gross violator of international law and they are not signatories to most of UN treaties and conventions

Nwaikpe:
They just strolled in and took him away like he is a tissue paper.

Even supreme leader sef, I heard that they took him from Tehran after the 12 days war. It was Trump that saved him at that time.

When he messed up by xiling 40,000 Iranians, Trump swore never to save him from Israel again.

But trust me, Israel arrested Khamenei.

😅😅😅

You can only hear it, it will never be confirmed.
Is that even possible, stop overrating Isreal.
Their feats are not extra ordinary. And they are not acts that we have not witnessed in rhe world before.
