Caseless: Just imagine those people. Don't we have Jews in Russia? Why do criticise Russia? Are we not all dragging America or saudi? Why's they're own different?
I was tempted to call the op a liar but it matches what's currently trending around the world. Government officials, actors, musicians, and even young students are losing their jobs and getting canceled for criticizing Israel (which isn't antisemitic). Havard's president is currently facing the risk of getting sacked. If you ask me, I'd say this is the fastest way to rally the entire world against them. It's even safer to stick to their stupid lies about the atrocities they are committing.
omohayek: It is perfectly possible to condemn actions of the Israeli state without automatically turning it into an attack on Jews in general. Indeed, there are many Jews perfectly willing to criticise the actions of Netanyahu's government, some of them even living in Israel themselves. Besides, not every Jew is an Israeli (and not every Israeli is Jewish) - in fact, most aren't (more Jews live in the USA than in Israel).
I don't think the problem the problem is with Nairalanders insulting Jewish people. Save for the few ones on this thread, most nairalanders either blindly support Israel's action out of hatred for muslims in general or condemn Israel's clearly condemnable atrocities in Gaza without insulting all jews. In fact, I believe 85% of nairalanders support Israel.
They have been sacking and banning people for so much as calling for ceasefire in Gaza, and that's a red flag. They don't want any criticism on Israel and they hide under the umbrella of antisemitism to fight freedom of speech.
Tell those terrorists that nothing will stop us from calling out Israel's genocide and terrorism on Palestinians, and that they cannot hide the truth. Nobody is above criticism.
OChimex: But almost every Nigerian wants to run go live the so called bad people, even all your politicians and celebrities and non of them wants to come back when they are there. Lol what an irony.
Leave the village of a country called Nigeria first and then we can talk. For now, continue to wallow in ignorance and lack of exposure.
The joke question you ask asked,
You know the answer, look at your politicians and their family and tell me who amongst them is not a criminal, arrogant, wicked etc... Often times in Nigeria, kindness and honesty are mostly done by the poor. E.g. people finding bags of money and returning.
Yet another childish comment. Do you have any scientific data to prove that "almost every" Nigerian wants to move abroad? You are projecting your beliefs onto everyone. Look, I understand that traveling abroad is your life's biggest achievement, but don't assume that our ambitions and accomplishments are that shallow. We could easily see how nonsensical your post is when we consider that:
ALL former presidents/heads of state of Nigeria alive currently residing in Nigeria
The biggest Nigerian artists reside in Nigeria
The richest man and woman (and their runnerups) reside in Nigeria
Most former governors, senators, etc reside in Nigeria
I can do this all day. It's a proven fact that the most successful Nigerians live here, and those that leave are middle-class Nigerians, many of whom tend to lie about their purpose of traveling in order to secure VISA and then work to upgrade their visas in the host countries. Of course, I do not devalue their hardwork and I respect them but it takes a man-baby to think traveling is some kind of marker for success when the most successful Nigerians make it in their homeland.
And sorry to burst your bubble, but the child of a corrupt politician is more likely to be honest, civilized, and kind than an agbero kid living in the Ghetto. I share your distaste for politicians but it is the truth. Most street thieves, drug addicts, rapists, thugs, etc comes from poor backgrounds and if you disagree with this, you are effectively disagreeing with DECADES of research conducted by highly seasoned sociologists from different countries of the world. You can make your own too. Check out the crime statistics of the country you are in and pay attention to the correlation between areas with higher crime rate and areas with higher poverty.
And no offense, did you take any interview before leaving? You sound like one of those uneducated aliens/sailors that Western conservatives hate with passion 😂😂
OChimex: First of all, how old are you? Have you lived in the US or Europe? I am sure your conclusion/opinion were all from the news and not from personal experience. Mind you, I didn't say all white people are good. I said majority. You kids of nowadays will just be in one village in Nigeria talking as if you know anything. Ask your friends who live abroad, or one day I pray you move out of Nigeria, then remind me, I will ask you what you think about your own experience. Mind you, I lived in Nigeria for over 3 decades before I moved and I talk from experience, having have to go to my clients house each day, at least 4 to work for them..
If you had been a matured man yourself, you'd have known that your experience as an individual in a white man's land is not superior to thousands of data available for consideration. Like I said, citizens from rich white countries are likely to be honest just as citizens from Japan, Singapore, UAE, Saudi Arabia, etc wouldn't try to screw you over the moment they get an opportunity. You'll understand me better when you find yourself in any of those Eastern European countries or in American countries like Argentina.
And remember, the same people you are immaturely praising right now were the ones who had no problem committing genocide in various countries and seizing countries for themselves. They only seem nice now because they've finally gotten there.
I won't stop there. Let me ask you a question. Between the child of a very corrupt politician and a random agbero street kid, who do you think is likely to be nice, honest, and well-behaved?
Mille: You people should pity Seun abeg. Reports are that it was anti-israel posts that took down the forum.
I'm sure agents of those genocidal land-grabbing terrorists must have been present or reading this thread.
If this is true then it is time for Se.u.n to upgrade, because Israelis have not received 1/100th of the insults Hausas, Fulanis, Igbos, muslims, and Yorubas have gotten on this site. We cannot allow them to prevent us from calling them what they are. If USA and Russia can be called out, who the Bleep are they?
WrriterNig: ⚡The United States abandoned plans to attack the Houthis after threats of all-out war from the 2 million-strong Yemeni Ansarullah group.
According to the Associated Press (AP), warships of the US-led alliance will be ready to provide air defense cover to as many ships as possible at any given time.
Essentially, they will fire $2 million worth of missiles to intercept a $2,000 Yemeni drone.
OChimex: One thing I will tell you is this, from experience, oyinbo, I mean pure white, are mostly naturally kind, have common sense and hate to see others suffering That's why there countries are way better.. Doing business with them is so easy. No cheating in their blood
Those same pure white men have killed more people than any other group of people on the planet while accumulating their riches off the blood of others. . The average white client is only like that because they are economically well off and not because they happen to be "pure white." Try dealing with pure white East Europeans and you'll know how far.
How some people reason on this forum is mysterious
Italy PM Giorgia Meloni says that there is a problem of compatibility between Islamic culture and European civilization. They are not compatible, Sharia impossible in Europe. Elon Musk also attended the fest and said that Italy now needs to protect its culture and not let it disappear. UK prime minister Rishi Sunak was also present.
Amir T
I'm in support of this, but only on the condition that you pay reparations for all the wars and militant groups you nurtured in the middle East. Until you stop arming your military outpost in the Middle East to create refugees, the migrants shall continue to come.
It might interest the pastor to know that these statements are also targeted at the predominately christian West African migrants that sail to Europe daily.
motayoayinde: The "greatest military in the universe" bombed those ministries out of FRUSTRATION as they were mercilessly slaughtered by Hamas. 😂
Anybody that so much as considers Israel military to be "great," talk more of being the greatest is either an idiot or a lunatic. The past 2 months have demystified every myth about them.
wrongnumber: When has it become A criminal offence to seek refuge?
Guy biko rest.
Do you know who a refugee is? Those guys were economic migrants and nothing else. Real refugees run to the safest place they can find and not spend hundreds of thousands of naira to FURTHER ENDANGER THEIR LIVES on the sea. They were would-be criminals and nothing else. I'm sorry if I sound heartless but they have been repeatedly warned about this but they still went ahead and did it.
People have reasons for wanting to travel... If you have reasons to remain in Nigeria please remain but don't ever condescend anyone who chooses to leave.
Dangers aside, are you aware that you are supporting criminality? They are basically invading them and not traveling.
WrriterNig: ⚡Within the first 48 hours of Milei’s presidency, the price of meat in Argentina has risen by 30%, and the total price hike for the week is approaching 100%.
motayoayinde: I understand your point and agree with the demographics☝️.
But I insist that on Palestine, there's a wide gulf between Arabs and their leaders especially in the rich, autocratic gulf countries. You can read more here 👇
The citizens of these gulf countries are: Muslims like the Palestinians, Arabs like the Palestinians, Neighbors to the Palestinians.
It's just natural for them to support their brothers, moreso as this is about an incredible amount of injustice done to these people.
If wealthy European countries like Spain and Belgium and hundreds of thousands in the United States are taking a decisive stand in support of Palestine in spite of cultural, religious/ideological differences it's only reasonable to expect a more organic support among the Arabs regardless of wealth.
I disagree that the gulf leaders are doing what is best for their citizens by not showing support for Palestine. They're doing THE BEST FOR THEIR THRONE instead. Their small size and population is not a reason to not feel indignation and speak out against injustice. They're just selfish cowards who lack basic human decency. MALTA and LUXEMBOURG are some of the smallest countries in Europe and the world with a population of just a little over 500k and 600k respectively. They were loud and clear in their support for Ukraine from the beginning to this moment.
Nicely put. Nobody is saying they need to act like Iran or Yemen. If Germany can commit what's basically suicide for Ukraine, there's no reason why they can't use economic leverages to sanction Israel or at least discourage the excessive support that it is getting from the West. Saudi Arabia did something like that in the 1970s and heaven did not fall.
Look at how UAE is even helping Israeli-bound ships to evade Houthis while Europe is going as far as banning some aspects of Russian culture and bullying innocent Russian investors. They are doing what is best for their pockets and nothing else.
motayoayinde: Most Sunnis also care deeply about the Palestinians (it's difficult not to) but leadership is what's making the difference between the two groups more glaring.
The Shia world, led by Iran is far more intelligent and more loyal to whatever cause it sets its mind to.
The Sunnis on the other hand are led by less intelligent, selfish and treacherous people, mostly Arab leaders.
The Arab gulf countries for instance are led by Kings who wouldn't allow even protests in support of the Palestinians because of the fear of being toppled. Saudi Arabia cracked down on a group of people PRAYING for Palestine.
Yes, I was referring to the leaders and not ordinary sunnis. They are spineless cowards.
Dream25: That's because you're foolish... Na why people ignore you. How does voicing out against Israel occupation concern him dying?? Is it because he collapse when he was voicing it out?...
You know how many people don voice out against Israel, you're just a fool trying so hard to be heard..
That's the logic of religion in general. It's the same way thousands of faithfuls die through all sorts of horrible disasters but let one person escape a near-death experience and they'll be running about and praising god.
emmaodet: From the look of things, if Hamas have 50% of weapons, air defence and air attack like Israel and backing of Russia and China, believe, Israel would have surrendered since
shoodboi2: Hamas providing more receipts. Unlike Israel that's bombing schools, hospitals, and refugee camps, Hamas is destroying Israeli tanks and troops on the ground.
