TruthSocial:From your moniker, it clear u ve brainwashed with right wing propaganda...the money America is spending to support Ukraine is mostly to replace the equipment its sending out and to keep the Ukraine government afloat...this is a strategic geopolitical war , of coz there are people who would love the war to continue but its not a strategic war for financial gains for the west... The war is sending gas prices up, slowing global economy and disrupting supply chains...so how then is this beneficial? |
Alexandersantos:Warfare in this modern times have changed... logistics and technology combined with alliance are so critical as much as equipment and personnel is... Russia might be stronger than the two Scandinavian countries but it won't be easy to overrun them, the terrain linking Russia to Finland is marshland and you would have to transport equipment and logistics tru narrow roads which would make them vulnerable to Finland airpower, Russia has been unable to establish air dominance in Ukraine despite Ukraine weak air force... Finland has a sophisticated air force with f-35, combine that with drones and strong artillery, you would know that overunning Finland wont be easy...then as long as almighty Washington has their back ..nobody goes .put call ![]() |
Bigchristo:What is NATO actually trying to do, is NATO forcing people to join them? Is NATO making incursion into Russia territory? What exactly is ur point, it is still the same Russia that regularly makes incursion into air space of Baltic nations .. Prior to the 2008 invasions of Georgia and the invasion of Ukraine 6 years later, NATO was loosing its relevance but the actions of Putin has strengthen the bloc |
Mrnairalandd:People like u go just dy talk without sense .. Russia has a very close partnership with Israel, the orthodox church in Russia is become more prominent since the fall of the soviet union, and u know Israel importance to Christianity... Israel and Russia also partner in Syria, especially in Israel's deterrence strikes on Hezbollah...this shows a high degree of cooperation and thats why Israel has bn walking a tight rope trying to balance its interest with Russia and its alliance with Washington... Palestine is a lost cause, they can never become ba state untill the arabs unite and try to put more pressure on Israel, the opposite is happening... And important to note that in at least 70% of countries, there's a degree of oppression going on against minorities, so everyone understands the geopolitics involved |
Mrnairalandd:Oga calm down, the issue with cuba during the cold war is different geopolitics from today and not the sole reason why Cuba is being sanctioned by America... The issue of Israel and Palestine is dire, because Israel is supported by the elite countries even Russia...yes America is not perfect but there's no justification to Putin's war in Ukraine except u ve bn brainwashed.. . |
Sltp:Oga shut up, nobody is threatening military action against SI...what Australia is doing is put diplomatic pressure on the PM to botch the deal with China... Australia would not send in the military to scuttle the deal with China, they are not as dumb as Putin, rather, they would pump more funds to prop the government or find a way to bring down his government covertly, the government was rocked with protest but Australia sent in forces to help restore order ..they can covertly take advantage of the division within the country, this is how the west works and not by stupidly engaging war like Putin |
Igbofam:You are so correct bro.... |
Alexandersantos:Shut up jare, Finland has one of the most advanced militaries in Europe, its a rich country and the west will also united behind them... |
Igbofam:As in eeh, dat guy no get sense at all... people dat have bn neutral for so long, that ode forgets that the most important thing about joining NATO is the article 5 |
I Love Atlanta, OP fire down this thread... Ignore that democrat hater.... |
Peter Obi all the way |
Captain8:As in igbo elite, i despise the actions of IPOB, we Igbos need to apologize to the Niger Delta people for some of our actions before and during the civil war that led to hatred on us by the South South tribes...but my point is clear, if secession is the answer, the ijaws cannot go alone, there must be southern coalition and unity if we are to succeed in rebelling against Abuja, so as u hate on Igbos, remember that we would be vital to the formation of an independent ijaw state as much as the ijaws would be important to us... |
This op keeps bashing Igbos, but forget that if secession is the answer, the Southern states must present a united front, you cannot just shut off other of your neighboring tribes that depend on your oil, you need them, they need you as well...the biggest mistake of the Biafra agitation is the sidelining of other tribes in the region and if you ijawss sideline other ethnic nations and go for rebellion alone, your neighbors would join Abuja to suppress your plans just so they can keep benefiting from oil and access to the sea |
Westlife my all time favorite....the band that captured my heart... |
Abeg make this thread roar back to life biko... |

Driver abeg drop me here....OP fire down |
Following....u guys can try Mauritius or Seychelles, i guess they are visa on arrival for Nigerians |

The other guy keeps saying how Jehovah wanted to use Abraham as a seed for the world to know him...what kinda stupid explanation is that, even prior to Abraham, civilizations that have lasted thousands of years have been in existence and life was already thriving through out the world.... You use Abraham's seed to wage war and grab land of other people, u promised them a Messiah to help them when the Assyrian empire waged war on them, then u abandoned them and went away.... A certain Jesus read the jewish texts and claimed to be the messiah, even his own people did not believe him coz they knew it was a charade... during the roman occupation where jews where subjugated and strangled by the Romans and even by their own religious leaders...Jesus sought to make things easier for his people by adjusting the jewish laws..... Paul came along after Jesus was crucified for treason, he adjusted everything to make it easier for non-jews to join the sect, there were many religious sects thriving in the Roman empire... The only reason why Christianity survived was the conversion of the Constantine...he made the religion the state religion and sought to use it to project soft power, People who have no idea about history and geopolitics would be blabbing rubbish... There's nothing to holy about Christianity, its a religion made popular by violence and not by any plan from Jehova, Jehovah left this planet a long time ago, Religion is spread by states wanting to seek soft power to control people under their jurisdiction easily during the era of state expansionism |
Dtruthspeaker:This is so pathetic..... Common sense would tell you from my post that the purpose of creating a state for Israel was a failure...the capture of Israel by Egypt wasn't divine...this was normal for strong states around the levant to expand and control the area of coz of its strategic position linking Africa to Asia... The weak Jehova should have gotten involved in Human affairs when other God's where physically present, make i see if horus, Osiris and co wouldn't have sent him to abysss...mtcheeeew |
Abeg keep updating this trade... |
MrBrownJay1:The truth is that , without democracy many diverse countries will descend into chaos... especially if there is marginalization and nepotism |
Flier:You are very correct... How do u mean by judiciary been a problem? Yes ,with the way republicans are moving, i won't be surprised to see the erosion of democracy in the USA |
In my opinion , Democracy have struggled more inn heterogeneous countries because elected leaders put the interest of their people first and use this interests to continuously sap voted from the people... My suggestions to fix some issues with democracy include... 1) Regions with higher economic output and GDP should have higher vote count than regions with poor GDP: This is the major issue that causes conflict in diverse countries because the regions with the resources and economic might are subdued by other regions...why should the vote of a people of south-western Nigeria be equal to people of north-west who contribut little or nothing to the economy...the people of south-west and south-south Nigeria should have more seats allocated in parliament because the contribute more to the country's GDP....this tweak will be helpful if Nigeria is to transition to a parliamentary republic... Let the states/regions with higher GDP be allocated more seats in parliament, this will enable the other poor regions to work hard to grow their economy and take a backseat let others drive the country forward... 2) There should Be Experience qualifications before vying for political office A big issue affecting democracy is that anyone who can be elected without having the required qualifications...in the private sector, experience determines how u climb the ladder to the top and it should be same for government...in China, there are levels to which a party member would have to move before vying for some positions... There should be qualifications for political offices and this qualification should focus more on experience ... 3) Citizens Should be allocated Vote on Bills debated by parliament: Its absurd that elected parliament members can pass whatever laws they want without input from the public...some bills should be put to a vote by citizens to determine public approval...even citizens are allocated 40% , then the parliament vote should take remaining 60%, this would ensure adequate synergy between government and people and enable citizens to have a say in laws made for them.... I believe with some tweaks, different countries can find the best approach to democracy |
Democracy has been the dominant system of government since the rise of the Western led world order... The rise of China and Russia means we are headed towards a multi-polar world order divided between Democracy and Autocracy... Democracy might not be perfect but it is widely seen as a better alternative to Autocracy... What are the flaws in democracy and what suggestions do you have to fix them.... |
MaxInDHouse:I can only feel pity and shame for the way we africans have been brainwashed to demonize our origins...imagine saying the yoruba deities are bad demons...this shows the extent to which the colonialists purged us of the knowledge of our ancestors, today we are lost...we embrace the mythology of the jewish people and throw ours to the bins ..what a shame...shame on all of us .. |
Scientists Wrote a New Message to Intelligent Aliens Beacon in the Galaxy is the latest in a series of attempts to contact other lifeforms in the universe. PART OF THE NEW MESSAGE SCIENTISTS WROTE TO COMMUNICATE WITH INTELLIGENT ALIENS. Scientists have developed a new message that could be beamed to intelligent aliens that might exist in the Milky Way, reports Scientific American. The new spacebound note, named the Beacon in the Galaxy (BITG), is the latest in a series of attempts to contact other lifeforms in the universe that date back to a message sent in 1974 from Puerto Rico’s Arecibo telescope to a star cluster. The beacon was devised by Jonathan Jiang, a scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and his colleagues, who published their motivations and methodology in a study on the preprint site arXiv. Preprint studies are not peer-reviewed. “The proposed message includes basic mathematical and physical concepts to establish a universal means of communication followed by information on the biochemical composition of life on Earth, the Solar System’s time-stamped position in the Milky Way relative to known globular clusters, as well as digitized depictions of the Solar System, and Earth’s surface,” Jiang and his colleagues said in the study. nood.png “The message concludes with digitized images of the human form, along with an invitation for any receiving intelligences to respond,” the team added. Given that we have no idea how intelligent aliens might communicate, or whether they exist at all, it’s challenging to imagine a language that might be, for lack of a better term, universal. Jiang and his colleagues opted to take a similar tack to many previous interstellar messages by writing the BITG in binary code. The beacon could be transmitted with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope in China and the SETI Institute’s Allen Telescope Array in California to a region in our galaxy that is deemed most likely to host life. “Though the concept of mathematics in human terms is potentially unrecognizable to ETI, binary is likely universal across all intelligence,” the researchers said. “Binary is the simplest form of mathematics as it involves only two opposing states: zero and one, yes or no, black or white, mass or empty space. Hence, the transmission of the code as binary would very likely be understandable to all ETI and is the basis of the BITG message.” Humans have sent many messages intended for aliens to outer space over the years, including the physical Golden Records onboard NASA’s Voyager probes, which, like BITG, also carry images of the naked human form. However, these attempts to establish contact with an alien race are not without controversy. Some experts have warned that broadcasting Earth’s position in the galaxy could be an invitation for a potentially hostile species to do damage to our world. Jiang and his colleagues acknowledge this risk, but ultimately counter that any aliens capable of deciphering the BITG message are not likely to be aggressive conquerors. “Logic suggests a species which has reached sufficient complexity to achieve communication through the cosmos would also very likely have attained high levels of cooperation amongst themselves and thus will know the importance of peace and collaboration,” the team said. In a similar vein, Jiang and his colleagues point to our own human history as a communicative species to support their renewed attempts at contacting other intelligent beings in the galaxy. “Since the first faint flickering of sentience dawned in the primal minds of modern humans’ distant ancestors some hundred thousand generations ago, we have sought to communicate,” the researchers noted. “Cooperation facilitated by rudimentary grunts and gestures may well have been the difference between extinction on the African veldt and eventual mastery of the Earth.” “The skies above us today, not so unlike the world which lay just over the African horizon two million years ago, invite our best efforts to pursue with renewed conviction and better means those answers we instinctively seek,” they said.

Lol now i get you, imagine people enjoying the stability that governance and politics has brought yet u have the guts to demonize world governance...now I understand what u mean all this while by witness...so now all other religions and christian sects are demonic�...you are living today and going about ur business today is because of the government of your nation, without them you are nothing, there is no God looking out for you or coming to save you .....this world does not revolve around ur religious beliefs... humanity will keep evolving and advancing till we can understand more about our origins and these beings that visited here in the past |
