if this man get one small nuke.....this is why terrorists aid givers must not be allowed to have some class of weapons.

Lol. Israel is one of the countries that sponsor terror in the world that's if they are not the number one. The jewish nation thrives on terrorism and assasinations it conducts around the world. If you are serious and ready to learn, if you are ready to dump western propaganda for intellectualism i'll recommend books written by great scholars and even Israelis who have come out to speak the truth about the workings of Mossad and other Israeli intelligence agency.

The supreme leader is right is Israel not a cancerous tumor in the region? When ever Iran scares the shit out of them they would refer to the holocaust. Israel has taken advantage of the holocaust to gain underserved sympathy from the world, they use the holocaust to justify their evils and war crimes. Holocaust this holocaust that but all the evils they have done to the Palestinians are more horrorful than the holocaust they are shouting. Bullshit

Our historians have already determined the approximate length of the reign of each Pharoah that reigned on the Late Bronze Age in KM.T.

For instance, Ramesses II also known as 'The Great' 1279 - 1214 lived as a very old man and was mummified.

On the walls of his Pyramid the Ancient Egyptians taught us their real history, one of these wall paintings is called 'The Battle of Kadesh' here its depicted that the warrior-king Pharaoh beats down and forced a hostile army to flee into the surrounding waters.

Many of the hostile armies are depicted to have been killed or drowned by the forces of Pharaoh as depicted in the 20th century re-copy.

African leaders and educational planners aren't doing enough to bring our past to limelight. I have read so many interesting things about Africa but they don't teach them in our schools. It saddens me

If true, uncle Sam needs to understand that America does not have the monopoly of nuclear annihilation. China, Russia have nuclear triads too with the ability to launch a decapitating first strike. My only concern is the world is about to witness another era of arms race that is more dangerous than the one it witnessed during the cold war years. We are watching.

Nonsense trend!

In as much as I don’t condone cheating, I’m very tired of hearing men say the saw this and that on their girlfriends phone.

Didn’t you know she’s not a virgin when you met her? Or even if you don’t know, are you perfect? Are you not sleeping with other girls?

Is she your wife, just like you have doubt, that’s how she has doubt too. So she has to keep her mind open and continue searching.

If you want a faithful woman, get yourself a wife

BS. So a faithful wife falls from heaven? Won't the man court the woman before they tie the knot? A lady that cheats during courtship won't be faithful to you when you marry her. As if marriage guarantees faithfulness and loyalty. This is the dumbest post i have seen on NL

The sole purpose of this news is to gather support to extend the UN embargo on Iran that is due to end in October. US withdrew from the agreement due to Israeli lobby pressure and lack of foresight, now that they've realized their mistake, the same Israeli lobby in Washington is pushing US to do something about it so Trump wants to rejoin the deal he proudly walked away from just because he wants to extend the embargo and restricts the weapons That Iran can purchase. He will succeed in using his European proxies in sabotaging the deal but Russia and China will support Iran.
They didn't just discover that Iran's missile capability is far beyond any other country in the region, they are only telling it to the public now because they want people to "see how much of a threat Iran is to Israel and US interest in the middle east". This public opinion control is exactly like what happened prior to the invasion of Iraq.

Russia and China is likely to veto any attempt to extend the arms embargo both countries have said they can't wait for the arms embargo to be lifted so that they can resume arms sale to Iran. The only thing America can do is threaten Russia and Chinese defence industries linked to any arms deal with Iran with sanctions. America is really scared of an Iran with S-400, SU-35, SU-57.

See how you dey drag ur country navy. You wicked o

You are a nuisance you keep mentioning my moniker everyday. We are here to learn but i haven't gained anything from you. All you do is attack anyone who has facts to back their points here by calling them jihadists. You have nothing to offer. Continue popularising my name on NL i love it that way.

Iran is a sovereign nation and has the sovereign right to ship its oil to any country. Every other country in the region can ship oil except Iran isn't that funny. Iran is not bound by any UN resolution that it should not ship her oil this is just a unilateral decision made by the self proclaimed world policeman America and let's see how America is going to deal with it now that Iran is hell bent on violating the shipping restriction.

Good evening boss, this is what i saw on AliExpress tracking site 2day. But track24 is still showing dispatch to oversea NGLOS, am confused here. Please what's the next step for me to take? Thanks

Ask the seller to extend your buyer protection or do that yourself and let him accept the extension request.

TabletMan:
Many people on this site are so emotionally unintelligent. They don't even know that the THAAD and patriot system are more battle tested than any air defense system.
Aside the Aramco missile attack last year, ask the guy to provide you another successful missile attack by the houthis and watch how dumb and stupid he will sound. Asked him whether houtis have stop firing missiles into Saudi or have they run out of missile to fire. But Saudi Arabia are still pounding them at Yemen even in the midst of this pandemic.
Air defense system around the world will not always work upto maximum expectations that's why Syrian air force operate freely in Turkey's airspace despite Turkey's S-400 system.

Lols. Ignorance on rampage

thundafire:
so building nuclear plants is far better than the suffering of the people abi

States in the international system are inexorably driven to the struggle for power simply because they wish to survive. According to Reinhold Niebuhr

"there is no possiblity of drawing a sharp line between will to live and the will to power"

Of course power may be mobilised beyond the peaceful requirements of states the case of Iran and North Korea. And it may be abused and misused, but the wrongful use of power does not in itself destroy the needs of states to possess power, in fact the evil use of power by some states e.g America and other bullies in the international system is the best reason why other states must have power.

If you want to understand international politics don't be quick to judge the actions of an actor in the system ask questions, why do nation-states behave the way they behave? Do such states just have the love for missile testing? Why do they want to become nuclear power. What are the factors influencing nations to go this way?

To point out the importance of national power to the security of a state is not to argue that all states are aggressive and predatory or that they would be if they had the strength. It is rather to say that states must be strong because some states may impose their will on you due to your weakness.

Once you understand the importance of power in international politics you won't see countries who are building their military prowess as evil because a nation's power is its last line of defense. That is why international politics is called "power politics" because it's a game of power among states in the international system.

Only building nuclear facility but can't better the people life

They aren't complaining bro. It is western sanctions that crippled the North Korean economy not their nuclear programme, they were still able to evade those sanctions with the help of China because the North has industries inside China.

After much pressure and persuasion Ghaddafi gave up his nuclear programme in 2003 we all know the aftermath. America dislike the Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD) doctrine, the thugs in washington know any country that achieves (MAD) is free from their aggression and bullying.

Iran has not even attained MAD yet she shot down America's most expensive drone last year, had courage to smash America's base in Iraq leaving over a hundred soldiers with traumatic brain injuries. What if they now have nukes? I swear America would think twice before they make any silly move. That's why uncle sam is so scared of an Iran with nukes.

If nuclear weapons programme is the only thing that can deter America from bullying you i think it is worth having regardless of the sanctions that come with it.

Ethiopia on Saturday admitted it was behind the shooting down of a privately owned Kenyan plane in Somalia earlier this week, resulting in the deaths of all six people on board.

The plane was shot down on Monday by Ethiopian troops protecting a camp in the town of Bardale in southwestern Somalia, the Ethiopian army said in a statement to the African Union (AU).

The aircraft had been carrying humanitarian and medical supplies to help the country fight the spread of coronavirus when it went down in Bardale, about 300km (180 miles) northwest of Somalia's capital Mogadishu.

The Ethiopian soldiers mistakenly believed the plane was on a "potential suicide mission" because they had not been informed about the "unusual flight" and the aircraft was flying low, the statement said.

"Because of lack of communication and awareness, the aircraft was shot down," the military said. "The incident … will require mutual collaborative investigation team from Somalia, Ethiopia and Kenya to further understand the truth."

Kenya expressed shock over the incident earlier this week, saying the plane's mission had been to aid Somalia in tackling the coronavirus pandemic.

Soldiers from Ethiopia and Kenya are among those deployed to Somalia as part of an AU peacekeeping mission to fight the armed group al-Shabab.

The shooting down of the plane comes amid strained ties between Kenya and Somalia.

Last month, Kenya accused Somali troops of an "unwarranted attack" across its border near Mandera, a northern outpost town, describing the incident as a provocation.

Somalia, meanwhile, has long accused its larger neighbour of meddling in its internal affairs, something Kenya has denied.

illitrate:
You guys are so unrealistic, America allowed that attack to calm tensions. There is was also no missile defence in Iraq for your info.

Aramco was a political game played by the us and also the saudis, not all you see is as it is. If u think in your dream that iranian or houthi tech can beat american + isreali, think again. Even your almighty bear.�

Lols. Ok sir

Daddysidhan:
You didn't even bother to find out the reason but just input your own incoherent unrealistic mindly guess all because it's America the enemy of jihadist all over

So you've found out the reason? clap for yourself

michlins:
bro eh. These people will watch Hollywood finish and then assume America and her allies are untouchable. Iran successfully bombed American airbase in Iraq even when they were on high alert and expecting such attacks. They denied casualty to save face but days later, reports of soldiers flown home for various degrees of injuries which might even be deaths sef. But that's alright

You've said it all sir. That guy called Daddysidhan is just too ignorant. He is one of the post-utme students in this foreign affair section i pray that FG should lift the lock down very soon so these guys can gain admission into higher institution. They way these guys think ehhhh.

Originality007:
Saw this news on Al Jazeera recently....America knows what dey are doing. Saudi is covered

Oh yea Saudi was covered when the houthis flew their kamikaze drones into Saudi airspace bypassing Saudi THAAD, Raytheon air defence systems last year Spetember. Do you know how many times those guys have carried out successful mission inside saudi arabia bypassing over hyped U.S radars in Saudi arsenal?

Ivanka should go for test asap

The U.S. is pulling two Patriot missile batteries and some fighter aircraft out of Saudi Arabia, an American official said Thursday, amid tensions between the kingdom and the Trump administration over oil production.

The official said the decision removes two batteries that were guarding oil facilities in Saudi Arabia but leaves two Patriot batteries at Prince Sultan Air Base in the Saudi desert, along with other air defense systems and jet fighters.

The decision scales back the American presence in Saudi Arabia just months after the Pentagon began a military buildup there to counter threats from Iran. About 300 troops that staff the two batteries would also leave Saudi Arabia, according to the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive military operations.

The move comes as the U.S. has sent Patriot systems into Iraq to protect American and allied troops there, who came under an Iranian missile attack earlier this year. The Army has a limited number of the systems, and they routinely must be brought home for upgrades.

Two other Patriot batteries that are in the Middle East region are also heading home to the U.S., in a planned redeployment for maintenance and upgrades.

It's not clear, however, whether the ongoing oil dispute or the struggle to parcel out the much-coveted Patriot systems was the key factor in the U.S. decision to pull systems out of the kingdom.

Asked about the move Thursday, President Donald Trump said, “We’re making a lot of moves in the Middle East and elsewhere. We do a lot of things all over the world, militarily we’ve been taken advantage of all over the world."

He didn't provide details, but added, "This has nothing to do with Saudi Arabia. This has to do with other countries, frankly, much more.”

When Saudi Arabia ramped up oil production and slashed prices this year, Republicans accused the kingdom of exacerbating instability in the oil market, which was already suffering because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The volatility and price crash in oil hurt U.S. shale producers, leading to layoffs in the industry, particularly in Republican-run states.

Some Republican senators warned in late March that if Saudi Arabia did not change course, it risked losing American defense support and facing a range of potential “levers of statecraft” such as tariffs and other trade restrictions, investigations and sanctions.

The U.S. official said a THAAD anti-ballistic missile defense system will also remain in Saudi Arabia. The THAAD complements the Patriots by providing a defense against ballistic missiles traveling outside Earth’s atmosphere.

The Saudi government and the Saudi Embassy in Washington did not immediately respond to a request for comment. State-run media in the kingdom similarly did not immediately acknowledge the troop removal.

The Pentagon announced last year that it would begin deploying forces and Patriot batteries to Prince Sultan Air Base, a former U.S. military hub. The move was one of the more dramatic signs of America’s decision to beef up troops in the Middle East in response to threats from Iran.

When Gen. Frank McKenzie, top U.S. commander for the Middle East, visited the base earlier this year, the American troop presence had grown to roughly 2,500. At the time, McKenzie told reporters with him that the base was a key strategic location, but that continued presence of troops and weapons there would depend on other national security needs around the world.

Tensions with Iran escalated throughout last summer and fall, as the U.S. blamed Tehran for using mines to target oil tankers near the strategic Strait of Hormuz and for attacking Saudi oil facilities. Violence peaked when the U.S. carried out a drone strike in Iraq that killed Qassem Soleimani, Iran’s top general.

In response, Iran on Jan. 8 fired ballistic missiles at al-Asad Air Base in Iraq where U.S. troops were stationed. More than 100 troops were later diagnosed with traumatic brain injury.

At the time of the attack, the U.S. had no Patriot defenses at those bases because it judged other locations, in Saudi Arabia and elsewhere in the Gulf, to be more likely Iranian targets. After the attack, the U.S. decided to move Patriots into Iraq to give troops more protection from missiles.

Tensions with Iran remain high. Its paramilitary Revolutionary Guard was involved in a tense incident in the Persian Gulf last month. The Guard's small boats repeatedly came dangerously close to U.S. warships, crossing in front of them multiple times. And the Guard is believed to have briefly seized control of a Hong Kong-flagged oil tanker.

But it can deter America and other hostile actors from invading and effecting a regime change. That's what they are after, it is called deterrence.

North Korea has almost completed construction of a giant facility large enough to hold nuclear missiles capable of reaching the United States, according to a new analysis of satellite photography.

The facility "is almost certainly related to North Korea's expanding ballistic missiles program," according to the analysis by the Center for Strategic and International Studies , a Washington-based think tank.

One building within the facility "is large enough to accommodate an elevated Hwasong-15 intercontinental ballistic missile and, therefore, the entirety of North Korea's known ballistic missile variants," the report states.

CSIS suggests the facility is located 11 miles north-west of Pyongyang and features an underground storage facility large enough to house all known North Korean ballistic missiles as well as their support vehicles. The site's existence had not previously been disclosed.

It also features an "unusually large" covered rail terminal, which could be used to transport missiles and supporting equipment, and interconnected buildings designed for drive-through access, the report states.

"Taken as a whole, these characteristics suggest that this facility is likely designed to support ballistic missile operations and for the interim is identified as the Sil-li () Ballistic Missile Support Facility," said Joseph Bermudez, the report's author.

"As such, it is another component of the North Korean ballistic missile infrastructure that has been undergoing both modernization and expansion during the past 10 years."

North Korea debuted its most powerful ballistic missile, the Hwasong-15, in 2017, which experts say could reach " any part of the continental United States ."

Donald. Trump has since met with Kim Jong Un on three occasions as he tried to broker a deal designed to halt North Korea's nuclear missile program.

But talks between the two powers broke down in February last year at a summit in Hanoi, Vietnam.

Trump was said to have handed Kim Jong Un a piece of paper which included a blunt call for the transfer of Pyongyang's nuclear weapons and bomb fuel to the United States in return for the lifting of economic sanctions.

A lunch between the two leaders was subsequently cancelled, and a North Korean official subsequently accused the US of issuing "gangster-like" demands, heralding a significant cooling in relations since.

Lol. He doesn't even need such power because he couldn't use it when Iran smashed America's Ayn-Al Asad airbase leaving over 100 troops with traumatic brain injuries. I remember how Mr Trump treathened fire and brimstone on Iran should Iran retaliate the killing of Soleimani.
