You really understood this ME war. That's a very fantastic analogy.

Thanks brother

Masterviolence:

I can assert with confidence that these events are rooted in espionage. Israel possesses a distinct technological advantage over Iran and its allies, an advantage that many have overlooked which is the fundamental reason for their success in espionage and sabotage. Until Iran and its allies completely cease relying on Western-made products or at the very best implement rigorous mechanisms to scrutinize all imported and domestically produced civilian and military equipment, Israel will persist in reaping the advantages of its longstanding tactics.

While many may dispute my assertions, it is undeniable that Israel currently has the capability to eliminate key figures such as the Ayatollah of Iran and the Nasrallah of Hezbollah.

The primary deterrent to such actions is the potential for retaliation. Should either of these individuals fall victim to an Israeli operation, the repercussions could lead to an invasion of Israel and spark a regional conflict, resulting in unimaginable loss of life to all parties involved including American troops stationed in the Middle East.

Bro you have to know that people fight in their area of advantage.
Espionage is the strength of isreal with the assistance of her big bullying brothers (they all work together).
You need to know your area of strength and weakness and work with that.
Forcing Iran and the resistance movement to fight in Isreal's domain will be suicide.
Know what you have and how best to use it to your advantage.
The Igbos are good in business and competing with them in that area by other tribes will be a futile work.
Huasas are very very good in farming. They bring out loads of grains week in week out into markets in trailers despite having to work harder to cultivate the soil compared to south.
That is their are of strength and they have maximized it. Trying to compete with them in that area na Oyo.
Because prime Barca is winning teams anyhow with tikitaka football style won't make others perform well by trying to replicate it, na wotowoto Dem go chop because they don't have the players or mentality to play such game.
To check mate Barca, you have to understudy their pattern and play something that will choke them like prime Mourinho with Chealse.
My point -
Isreal is good in espionage, technology and air superiority which are their area of strength and they wish their enemies will compete with them in this field so that they can just flatten them once and for all.
But Iran and the resistance have numbers in their advantage. It is the typical Arab pattern of fighting.
It is the same way northerns fight, the same ideology. Using Almanjeris which they have in large numbers and using them as canon fodders. Throwing them under the bus.
Ground invasion doesn't favour isreal unless the enemies have been weakened with air superiority.
Isreal is just 2m compared to Arabs that have the numbers to throw under the bus.
But of recent, Iran has been upgrading these fighters and they have added tactical approaches to it - Again another strength.
Iran has built her strength around Missiles and population and Isreal will struggle on ground battle with them.
Using this missile strength tactically involves attacking Isreal at key strategic places.
Isreal strength is in her invincibility - ability to neutralize enemies attacks before getting to isreal on air and it is that invincibility that Hezbollah is trying to take out.
They are systematically trying to Naked isreal by removing her clothes one after the other.
Even Isreal war cabinet acknowledged that they understand the message Hezbollah is trying to send - meaning by taking out the air defence systems, military industrial complex, military bases, airports, power stations etc, Hezbollah is quietly exposing isreal to a bigger defeat in the corner.
If you don't have any defence again, that means missiles can enter any place and at any time.
It means you can't sustain a war for long and any moves you take can easily be neutralized before acting

Lawag3:
Because I do not support a terrorist group that attacked killed Israeli people? Just because of what?


Cry more. Even some gazans want the end of Hamas.


Gaza is better without hamas.

A Gaza without Hamas would have been taken over by Isreal.
They don't understand gentlelity. The only language they understand is violence.
Is there Hamas in West bank? West bank has always been trying to be in the good book of Isreal but what do they get? Regular bullying and embarrassment.
Infact, West bank has lost more than 50% of their lands to forced isrealis settlers all just because they don't want to toe the path of violence.
Isrealis are big thieves who covert Palestines land alot.
Have you ever heard of Gaza settlers? Of course No because who in his right mind will go there to steal land when they won't wake up the following day to tell the story but west bank is a different story.
Maybe you should focus your effort on the one who keeps stealing lands

FoolishBoy419:
I didn't know only Israel was the only state that's capable of advancement. Anyway, you're welcome.

If only people know how much money is been poured into isreal, even the dullest of countries will perform magics with such money.
First, isreal is just twice as big as Osun state or as big as cross river state.
Lebanon is just as big as Osun state - very small.
Again, Lagos state budget for 2024 is 2.2 trillion naira for 22m people for a whole fiscal year.
US alone gives isreal $4b yearly - that is #7 trillion naira not just for isreal's economy But for isreal's defence budget.
That is isreal is receiving times 3 of what Lagos will use for a year as defence budget just for 2m people for a land as small as Osun/Ondo.
And that is outside money coming from UK and others, the Rothschild NGO special fund for isreal and so much more.
Please remember, this is aside money for the broader economy nor is it part of the internally generated revenue by isreal and this money come in Year in, Year out.
Even a fooool will perform with such money.
No country is dull nor is any country short of professors, intelligent people.
If you pump such equivalent money to other countries be it Burundi or Gabon or Nigeria in same proportion with population and landmass, even if them curse that country, he go prosper by fire by force coupled with exposures to other western countries research portals and their professionals with such money.
Why won't you be able to build air defense systems and other advance technologies when there is vast amount of money to play around and throw around.
Countries are like soil while humans are the seeds.
When seeds are planted on fertile soils like US, UK,Canada and other western countries, it is normal and expected to germinate reason while you see someone struggling in Nigeria as a mechanic, teacher, nurse who can barely afford 3 square meals here all of a sudden start living good lives, driving brand new cars and others when they japa.
It is because most African countries are bad soils that will hardly germinate good seeds due bad government policies

Vic2023:
🇱🇧🇮🇱⚡- Serious incident declared in Jadeidi-Makr, northern Israel - numerous casualties reported, some in very serious conditions, after Hezbollah rockets made impact.

Honestly, isreal really chanced Hamas because hamas does not even have the means to retaliate back.
They were just busy bombing Gaza back to stone age but with Hezbollah, it is a different ball game entirely.
Hit me I hit you back

alezzy13:
Hmm.

Understand the changes in monetary policy announced by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) on September 24, 2024.

1. Benchmark Interest Rate (MPR):
The Monetary Policy Rate (MPR) was increased from 26.75% to 27.25%, a rise of 50 basis points (0.5%).

Example: If a bank was borrowing from the CBN at 26.75%, they will now borrow at 27.25%. This increase aims to control inflation by making borrowing more expensive, which can slow down economic activity and reduce inflationary pressures.

2. Asymmetric Corridor:
The asymmetric corridor of +500/-100 basis points around the MPR was retained.

Example: With the new MPR at 27.25%, this means:
- The upper limit for lending is MPR + 500 basis points = 27.25% + 5% = 32.25%
- The lower limit for deposits is MPR - 100 basis points = 27.25% - 1% = 26.25%
Banks can lend to each other within this corridor.

3. Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) for Commercial Banks:
The CRR for commercial banks was increased from 45% to 50%, a rise of 500 basis points (5%).

Example: If a commercial bank has total deposits of ₦1 billion, they previously had to keep ₦450 million with the CBN. Now, they must keep ₦500 million. This reduces the amount of money banks can lend out, potentially slowing down economic activity and inflation.

4. Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) for Merchant Banks:
The CRR for merchant banks was increased from 14% to 16%, a rise of 200 basis points (2%).

Example: If a merchant bank has deposits of ₦1 billion, they previously had to keep ₦140 million with the CBN. Now, they must keep ₦160 million.

5. Liquidity Ratio:
The liquidity ratio was retained at 30.00%.

Example: Banks must continue to maintain 30% of their deposits in liquid assets. For instance, if a bank has ₦1 billion in deposits, they must keep ₦300 million in easily convertible assets like cash, short-term government securities, or other highly liquid investments.

These policy changes generally indicate a tightening of monetary policy. The CBN is likely trying to combat high inflation by reducing the money supply and making borrowing more expensive. This can slow down economic activity but help stabilize prices and the value of the currency.

As you can see, they are making borrowing money from banks to manufacturers, SMEs and others very expensive and unprofitable because you can't borrow money from banks let's say 32% and make any tangible profit.
What is even the profit margins of most manufacturing companies after salary, tax, debt repayment and so many other things.
For the few ones that can endure it, they will literarily be working for the banks and not themselves.
Even the cash reserve ratio means banks can only borrow people and companies only just 50% of what they have left from previous 55% which means squeezing the banks more.
Out of the remaining 50% sef to borrow people, another 30% liquidity ratio which means they are forced to invest in TB and bonds. Again squeezing out the cash in the economy for expansion and manufacturing.
So we have virtually 20% cash left for 200m plus Nigerians to fight for at an expensive rate from the banks because they will only loan it to the highest bidders anyway.
Which brings me to the question -
If you are discouraging manufacturers thereby reducing production, some even close up due to loan defaults and layoff, how you want take grow economy when people are been thrown into more hardship and unemployment.
This type of economic move still dey baffle me.
Anyway, I didn't graduate from Cambridge or hold an MBA, so I will leave that to exparts or professionals in that sectoe

Plus10:
Hope it will reflect in the next primary auction.

It will not.
They are trying as much as possible to discourage borrowing money from banks by making it expensive but then, it will slow down economic growth.
On the other hand, they are also discouraging people from investing in TB by lowering the coupon.
Aim and objective - for people to bring out hiding money to invest in physical business in the country to boost economy.
How effective this will be, we will see

These guys really chanced Hamas alot.
Hamas didn't even do up to 1/10th of what Hezbollah is doing and they didn't wait to level that place.
They have been dragging legs for a long time about invading Lebanon.
They thought it will be like Hamas where their people were busy taking pictures outside of Hamas local rockets been neutralized by iron dome.
Now, their citizens can feel the hot seat and running Helter skelter

⚡Western media's narritives about China's lithography machines in different stage:

1. The lithography machine is a true industrial pearl in the world, a product of cooperation between dozens of countries. It is impossible for China to produce it, not possible for decades;

2. The lithography machines made in China are more than ten years behind that of foreign countries, with little commercial value and practical significance;

3. Although China's lithography machines have reached the highest standards in some indicators, they have more drawbacks and may be limited in practical use;

4. China's lithography machines are leading, but at at what cost? is it really worth investing so much money for it under the CCP system? Why not use this money for people's livelihood?

They are now in stage 2

It would have been better for you to picked employed, since she's going for a tourist visa, yes you might been thinking that how will you get employment letter which is very easy, that's why sometimes is better you know an experience agent handle it for everything for you, you family ties and home ties and pof re mostly the deciding factors for them granting visa, usinf an agent you can get any documents that u yourself donr even have but they will bring it out and you will be surprised how is done but you doing it yourself where do you think you will get the documents?

I don't like agents.
Have used them in the past and the outcome was not palatable.
They are very costly for my pocket yet their success rate is low.
I took my time to carefully study this thread since it is a do-it-yourself group and the time, sacrifice has paid off and worth it.
I only spent less than 200k to get my US visa and another 200k for my Canada visa.
If I had used agent, it would have been millions of nairas with so many forged documents they have used for many unknown to me which may lead to high denying rate and affect my future application due to inconsistent information with the agent own

ofime123:
Continue with the application like that, if you are sponsoring her, tick the home maker and upload your own employment letter and necessary documents, this is what I did for my family, the only thing I upload for her was her passport and nin, on the employment side i upload all my documents, also pof is on my name.

Thanks very very much .
I really like this .
It makes a lot of sense

affoncad:
If your wife has no family in Canada as a PR or citizen and doesn't have a good travel history, it's better to apply for a UK tourist visa. The chances are higher because Canada is no longer favoring new travelers on tourist visas and no let any visa agent deceive you it not about how strong ur many document or pof..canada no send new traveller again!!

I am not using a traveling agent.
I did my Canada and US visa myself courtesy of this thread and got it.
Canada 8 years and US 5 years.
I am only applying for my wife to follow me on vacation.
Pof is okay and my traveling experience is good also. Just hope my pof, traveling history and Canada visa can influence her own outcome too. That's all

Mille:
They've forbidden pictures or videos of hits sef. Surprised some still leak though. And yeah, they don't announce casualties on the Northern front anymore.

Btw, the Lebanese Government and Armed Forces that said they will defend their country are nowhere to be found. Some people are just shameless to even compare a non-state actor to an apartheid state. Everyone knows Israeli airpower is their only strength, and that only against those without air defense. That's why you find them struggling to achieve anything outside of air bombings.

In invading Gaza, a tiny strip of land against about 20k Hamas members, Israel has only announced 2600+ casualties, meanwhile an Israeli newspaper put the true figure at 10,000 casualties. Despite that, no strategic goals or objectives has been achieved. That's why they keep bombing civilians from the air to give their religious extremists followers something to cheer about.

But then again, who can win anything with scared and screaming towel-hugging soldiers who only know how to fight against stone-throwing teenagers.

I will say it again, remove isreal's air force and I bet you they can't stand toe to toe with Hamas not to talk of Hezbollah.
Let them keep all their air defence systems, UAVs, tanks, just remove only the fighter jets and it is a game over.
I don't blame them though because even the Russia/Ukraine war, the game changer is the Russians air superiority.
The air force inflicts major damages to the enemies before the infantries move in to do the final clearings.
Without RUAF, the war in Ukraine would have been at standstill and Russia wouldn't have gained any territory.
Ukrainians are good fighters but there is little to none a good fighter can do when fighting someone above and it is the main reason Nato has not officially entered the war because they are not sure they will be able to fully starve Russia out of air control and bomb her back to stone age like Kosovo, Bosnia and Serbia wars

Hello house, I plan to apply for my wife Canada tourist visa.
I ticked Homemaker in the employment section since she is a stay-at-home-mum and won't like to use the unemployed option.
The challenge now is that, employment letter is to be uploaded in the document section.
How do I go about this? Do they expect a homemaker to be employed? Since it is another name for housewife

God almighty can use anything to protect you that is why he is God

God used the red sea to protect Israel and sank all Egypt army men in it

God can use whom ever he wants that is how God does his work he can also use the devil if need be to protect you every thing
Answers to God almighty

So don't belittle Israel because they said they can only be protected by other powers

That is pure grace to them

Please can we stop all these bible quoting? Not everyone believes in what you believe you know? And we all can use our religion as a reason to subdue others.
To the best of my knowledge, Oduduwa and Orunmila were given South west Nigeria, part of Benin and Togo and also part of North central by their God Olodumare or Orisa nla and all they just need is to start taking these lands back since it is what their God gave them and their descendants and No one has the right to stop them and they have the right to exist and defend themselves.
Hope you get that

You talk sense baba... Leave rizzputin and his epistles to the faithful. I am a man and my pills are bitter and based on real life events. and while it's attractive to be self confident , channel that shiit to getting results. Women may like how bold you are but keep coming home empty handed day after day and we will see just how attractive you still look to her. They want results and they live in the present. That's my angle. All your energy should be into getting things done. This phase may get easier if you are lucky to have a woman who understands you and is a bit tolerant. No woman will keep smiling and admiring your confidence after solely paying all the bills...for a month, a
year..5 years?? Women are not built to carry that load and while some may give you some lee-rope...don't kid yourself they will love it continue to do so.

I have a male neighbor who is now dead. He was a provider while back and the family was happy. He got a smaller paying job and all hell broke loose. I could still hear his wife shouting one night around 11pm 'You are
not bringing money home, and you wan Bleep? Which mumu nonsense oloriburuku Bleep be that? If you touch me, I go show you pepper. He came to me the next day and narrated his ordeal at the hands of his wife. But guess what? I told him to leave for a bit and go hustle so he can provide better ..but he said he loved his kids too much to leave them for so long. A month later, I was called into his room by his wife to help carry him to the hospital because he fainted...his BP was 220/110. He died after. Know what the wife said 'At least, he can now go and rest' about her own husband, a 42 year old man.

I can go on and on. The problem is many men believe women think like them and behave like them and so rationalize shiit and become surprised when their women behave anyhow. I am not. I know that gender and I always never let myself be caught lacking. They don't behave like men or reason like us.

They are cats!!!

Hmmmmmmmmmmm

It is well.
May God not embarass us or shame us.
