This one doesn't even know the history

Jordan today was part of the British Palestine mandate

Go read it first then come back

It was divided into 3 , two Arab states one jews state

Israel accepted Arabs rejected
That's technically correct, but in 1927 it was established as an emirate of Transjordan, an autonomous part of the mandate, and they gained their full independence in 1946, and was renamed the Hashemite kingdom of Jordan.

It wasn't lsreal that divided the land ,It was UN that split the land into 2 states not 3 bros.

Get the history right , one Jewish,one Arab--with Jerusalem as an international city, Jordan wasn't given any land as you mentioned above. Jordan only took control of the west bank after the 1948 war..

The question As for who first attacked first....Isreal declared independence in 1948..and five arab states launched a war immediately after that..

Conflict since then .has been occupation and resistance of war not a one sided story.. grin

Abu Mazen Nassar echoed this sentiment, fearing the US-Israeli plan is a “trick” to force Palestinian resistance factions to release the captives and no peace in return.


It was so obvious and confirm exactly what the Columbian President said. " President Trump and United States are complicit in the genocide in Gaza " and should be prosecuted by I.C.C. President Trump and Biden will one day be reported to I.C.C on this matter.

It's so embarrassing watching how they still think like imperialists who sit down in a room with coffee and determine the lives and times of a nation while the Palestinians were shut out. Chai! They think the rest of the world is in their own evil bubble? That show of shame media briefing was repulsive and full of hubris and insults the world watching US-Israel think the rest of the world is dumb. Hell No! The world is not dumb!

It is no brainer that thePalestinians, after almost 100k of its people, mostly children, babies and women were martyred in the US-Isreal genocide in Gaza will never accept anything less than full self-determination and independence.

The 'hell' Trump promised came yet hostages are still in Gaza, USA-Isreal expensive war machines have not defeated Hamas, in spite of the billions Trump and US spent to commit the genocide and the world has recognized Palestine. Trump and Netanyahu have lost it completely. If you are not winning you are losing!

Nothing will resolve this issue without a fair resolution of the matter and it's only a neutral body that can mediate. US is complicit and cannot mediate fairly.

All the rest of the world want is a free Palestine like free South Africa and all the hostages freed while a truly independent Palestine stands. A US that supported apartheid in South Africa until the world defeated it will be defeated again.
lol... ICC to prosecute an American president? USA does not recognise the ICC and would invade Hague should any of their officials ever face trial at the court.

They are losing while Gaza has been turned to rubbles with thousands of people dead?

Anyway, a two state solution remains the best option, the question is... Who is going to be incharge of Palestine state? PLO and Hamas don't see eye to eye so it's either an Arab coalition backed by the USA or letting the Palestinians decide their fate —which would likely lead to a civil war.

PANDORA PAPERS: Buhari visited Tinubu in corruption-tainted London villa acquired by Oyetola

Governor Oyetola, a relative of Mr Tinubu, may have sabotaged his own country by buying the exotic property as Nigeria made to seize it.
ByNicholas IbekweandTaiwo-Hassan Adebayo October 7, 2021 in Headline Stories, Pandora Papers Reading Time: 8 mins read

It was a meeting of two of Nigeria’s most influential politicians in London – President Muhammadu Buhari was visiting political kingmaker and senior member of his ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu.

In July, the presidency announced that Mr Buhari was heading to London for an education summit. The office also added that the president would also see his doctors for “medical check-up”.

Coincidentally, Mr Tinubu, who had travelled to London earlier, was also receiving treatment for an undisclosed ailment in the British capital. So, a perfect setting for both men to meet was created.

[b]When some of us hear about helps murdering their bosses in cold blood, or peeing in their pot of soup and we start asking certain questions, this is one of the many reasons.

On one of my many travels I was invited for breakfast at an old friends house, they had a help who was much younger than his last born but she was the one in the kitchen helping the wife, when breakfast was ready she was asked to go wake the children up, they all dragged themselves down about 10minutes later and mumbled greetings to me. We sat at the table and this little girl was the one serving even the wife, and while she was doing this the wife and children kept nagging, complaining and calling her names. I couldn't eat the food.
Took my cup of coffee and returned to the living room. I later got to know that the little girl was the wife's niece.
I Lost absolute respect for my friend.
I will not go into a man's house to tell him how to run his home but how a man runs his home determines if we be friends, business partners or not.[/b]

One thing I must not is that the little girl in question remained calm and continued saying "yes ma" "sorry ma". Very gentle soul
This is why I adore and respect my late parents. The way they treated our housemaids ( boy and girl) was so different from how other people that I know treated theirs.
These housemaids were older than we were and they sent us on errands and if we refuse to go, they will beat us, and If we go to report to our mother, she increase the beating if she judges that we were at fault. My parents (my mother especially) took these two people like their own and was so invested in their education. My mum made sure that they all went to school, she sponsored the guy from his secondary school to his university and helped him get a job, the lady was not so into schooling so my mom sponsored her business and rented a shop for her to start up while still living with us. They follow us to vacations, when it's Christmas time mumsy will buy Christmas stuffs for everyone, both for us and for them. And these people treated me and my siblings like their younger ones, as in.. no body dey touch us for street because of them.

Even now that our parents are late, and these two people have all started their own families, they still come to visit us at home and spend a week with us. They're literally part of the family now.
They don't call my parents Sir or Ma, they call them Mom and Dad just we do and we were not related in anyway.

Growing up with this experience and reading and seeing how other people treat their maids really really disgusts me. If you treat people like your own child(ren) they will love and treat you like their own parents, that's what a lot of people don't understand.

MrIcredible:
See senseless hypocrisy thinking
So,the old testament laws jesus categorically said he didn't come to condemn, but fulfill is what you're trying to talk against, right?
And the old testament is outdated and not part of the bible, right?
Tell me where paying tithe is in the new testament. Did Jesus ever paid tithe?
You people just cherry pick laws that suits your selfish lifestyle and turn the blind eyes to others.
Well done.
What Jesus meant by that was that His coming was a fulfillment of the old laws. And his death and resurrection introduced a new law, a new covenant that no longer requires burnt sacrifices and abstaining from pig consumption.
The old testament laws demands that adulterers should be stoned to death, Christ went against that.
The Old testament laws says that only God can forgive sin, and there are sacrifices that has to be done before such forgiveness can be attained, Christ didn't adhere to that.

The old testament laws demanded that Sabbath be kept holy and no work should be done on that day, Christ and his disciples broke that law multiple times and he even preached against it's total adherence.

The old testament demanded people to fast during certain periods, Christ and his disciples didn't adhere to that.

The Old testament, which is actually Judaism, is a Monotheistic religion, Christ came and said that He is the way, the truth and the Life, no one comes to The father except through Him and that he sits at the right hand side of God. This declaration is a blasphemy as long as the Old testament laws/Judaism is concerned
So I'm not being hypocritical by stating what Christ said and did himself. He was the one who told Peter in Acts of Apostles, that no animal is unclean, that every animal which was created are all clean. It is there on the bible.

You seem to be having the wrong impression/ interpretation of what I'm saying or my stance.
I don't agree that tithing is a Christian practice. As long as I'm concerned and as far as my understanding of both the old and new testament goes, tithing is a Jewish practice which was meant for the Jews ONLY because it is directly tied with the old covenant that God had with the Hebrews/Israelites/children of Abraham (it was not meant for the gentiles,— you and I are gentiles)and which is superceded by the new covenant with Christ. And the way that pastors preach about tithing in our churches is not how it was commanded in old testament. For instance, the tithe in the bible was meant to be consumed by the tither, as in that 10 percent was supposed to be eaten in the presence of God by the tither . Then once every year all the tithes should be gathered in the temple so that the widows, orphans can have something to eat, and also the Levi's who are dedicated to the temple and don't own any lands could have something to eat. But today we have no Levite on our midst and Yet these pastors demand for it, they even gaslight you and guilt trip you from keeping to the law of tithing which is to eat the tithe in the presence of God.

Besides, tithing itself is just a small part of the laws and commandments that were given to the Hebrews, and they were told that failing to do one while doing the rest or just doing one and leaving the rest are all wrong. You either keep the laws in totality or you don't.
However, if you're keeping the old laws which tithing is among them, that means you are a Jewish practitioner and not a Christian, so that means you don't recognise the Jesus was the Messiah/Christ.

Fulani suffered greatly during Buhari's disastrous tenures, Yorubas are crying in bitterness and hunger in this Tinubu tenure, every Nigeria is feeling the heat and hardship due to this bad leadership.
What the SE wants is a presidency that would make life better for the common man, because when the common man is happy and comfortable, the whole Nigeria is happy.

SE massively voted for Obasanjo in 2003, they also voted for Yar'Adua despite Ojukwu of all people contesting in that election, Yar'Adua still won majority vote in SE. They campaigned and stood behind Jonathan till the very end.

Propaganda links. Like you think I am not aware about how they have been rewriting history.

With all the countries you mentioned, just cut that part of Middle-East and take it to Europe. You excluded the Black Ethiopian and Nigerian Jews? Seems those ones don’t fit into what your masters would want.

Hello, Jews were present across the Middle East prior to the invasion of the fake Jews. They were natives of the land and lived peacefully with other religious groups.

You can never make it sense that a Caucasian comes from the Middle-East. NEVER!

Let’s imagine you are right and they all come from the Middle East. Did the migration also take away their surnames, that they now have to start changing names.

How come they just had to reinvent a language? You just trying to sell fake by white washing real history with Zionist propaganda’s. I am conversant with their trade.

Cant you see they destroying olive trees all in the name of erasing identity of the true owners, and now have to start planting GMO cos they cannot naturally cultivate the land.

Those guys are fake Jews? Europeans to be specific. Can’t you see all the countries standing behind them are Europeans. They have no roots to the land and why they can destroy everything.
Anyone who says that 23andme is a propaganda site loses all credibility formerly accorded to him/her and exposes themselves as being deeply ignorant and severally lacking in any knowledge whatsoever concerning the subject matter.

The Jews who were in the middle east prior to 1948 are called the mizrahi Jews and they hold the majority population in present day Israel! For goodness sake help yourself by reading and getting educated on this subject, your Lack of knowledge on this is embarrassing, I posted three pictures of Semitic people ( 2 Jews and one Iranian) to highlight that. Read! You will not kpai if you do so!!
And they never lived peacefully with other groups, they were constantly being attacked by Arabs, read about the Hebron Massacres and other pogroms that happened during the ottoman rule of Palestine for goodness sake!

I don't think you know what a Caucasian looks like at all because a lot of Caucasians are brownish, you're just parroting the propaganda talk points you've been fed with.

Assimilation happened, change of names were necessary in some cases to protect them from persecutions in Europe. But their DNA retained their true ancestral roots.

I have wasted too much of my time trying to debate with an ignoramus and I think I'm done Doing that.

Read up on actual educative documents, journals and books on the this subject or forever remain ignorant. Your choice

It’s well documented they were accused of trying to eliminate the Czar, and NEVER were they evicted from anywhere because they are from the Middle East. They are life Europeans by blood and build.

No one ever said they were from the Middle East. As a matter of fact, Palestine was not the only country on the table for them to be settled. Kenya, Uganda and Ethoooa were on the table.

If they had settled for Kenya, you would have been here today telling us how they come Kenya cos o don’t see how you see a Caucasian and boldly say they are from the Middle East.
This is why I don't take you people seriously at all. Your entire narrative of Jewish assassination attempt is centered around a baseless accusation due to antisemitism. Read a book,No! It's to be peddling propaganda ignorantly that you would rather do. Accusations is not conviction, there are some antisemites who accused Israel of assassinating Charlie kirk, do you think that accusations is baseless or factual? I can already guess your answer to this question.
They were evicted from the Rhine in 1300s, they were also evicted from Spain. Read! Read! It will not harm you to actually read a book.

They weren't settled in any other place other than Palestine for the same reason why their archeological sites are found in Palestine.... It's because it's their original homeland. Period!

You are narrating false Zionist propaganda’s!

They migrated from Middle East to Europe via which route? Weren’t there Jews present in Middle East before their arrival, or are all Arabs Muslims?

Their entry into Palestine is well documented with picture evidences and cards which they were issued upon arrival.

Don’t make it sound like there were never Jews in Middle East before the fake Jews arrived. You trying to mix the invaders with the already present Jews.

You relaid identical Hebrew 😄😄😄. Hello! That Hebrew is fake. Hebrew was long time extinct and only a few part of it in scrolls was present. It was not spoken for thousand of years. The Russian counterfeited it with the little present.
It's Zionist propaganda to you because you only get your information from tiktok, you probably have not opened any historical book in your life and definitely haven't opened the Bible and read the letters of Paul and Peter because there were evidence of migration there. Or do you think that Rome which Peter and Paul went to was in middle East?

In 70, the Romans destroyed the Second Temple in Jerusalem. A large part of the Jewish population was either massacred or exiled. In Judea, the area near present day Israel, 25% of the Jewish population was exterminated and 10% enslaved. Jews became a minority in their own land.
Many Jews fled to Mesopotamia, which is modern Iraq, and the rest fled to lands around the Mediterranean, presently known as southeastern Spain, southern France, southern Italy, Greece, Cyprus, and Turkey. Later, the Jews began to head north (to present day northern France, Belgium, Holland, and Germany, Austria, Bulgaria, Bosnia) and northern Africa (Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco).
By 300, about three million Jews had settled in most parts of the Roman Empire, except Britain. A million lived west of Macedonia (Greece) with the majority settling throughout Asia Minor and east to the Caspian Sea and the Persian Gulf. Jews lived as far north as Cologne, Germany.

https://fcit.usf.edu/holocaust/people/displace.htm

There have always been a Jewish people in Palestine, every single map of Palestine since the ottoman empire had a Jewish community clearly indicated in it. Go and read a book!

The Jews that you call fake still shares DNA with the middle east Jews

While people of Ashkenazi ancestry have deep roots in Eastern and Central Europe, their ancestral lines trace back further to areas in the Middle East.
For people of Ashkenazi ancestry, it is in Europe that a drastic reduction in the population’s size and communal isolation became so profound that they created what geneticists call a “population bottleneck.”

How does excavation change the fact that the current settlers are Europeans, or that Israel is an artificial state.

Excavation changes nothing? It only depicts Roman coins and does not give concrete evidence about how Europeans became Jews!

All these propaganda does not sell again. The fake Hebrew language was created by a Russian, the fake Jews are from East Europe.

The Bible never tells lies. In the whole entirety of the book, everything description of man in events were brown, dark and curly hair. Not Caucasians masquerading to be Jews.

Africans, Asians, Europeans, Middle East and Americas are unique to their respective continent in body build, eyes, colour, hair and adaptation. Israel is the only fake state of Caucasians in the Middle East.



The Hebrew is Fake. It was created by a Russian

The diet is fake. It was adopted from Palestinians

The book- Talmud is fake. It was originally written in Aramaic

Their names are fake, they all have Europeans name they converted to sound Jewish.
Read book Una no go gree.
The current settlers are majority local Jews who never left the land, They are known as the Mizrahi Jews, Google it and educate yourself. The second majority are the Ashkenazi Jews, these people are related to the mizrahi Jews according to DNA research. Again read about the DNA make up of the Ashkenazi and get some education.

Jews migrated in their numbers to Europe after the bar kochba revolt and burning down of the temple in 70AD. Read o! Read and stop spreading ignorance here. Others migrated later during the Arab conquest of Palestina because some of them couldn't leave under the islamic laws so they left.

So are you saying that a Russian created a fake Hebrew language that is identical to the old Hebrew language? Because the old Hebrew language and the current one are basically the same, a Hebrew speaker in this year can perfectly interpret any ancient Hebrew writing. So you obviously have no idea what you are talking about.

The bible never described man as Brown with curly hair. Sometimes I wonder why you people are so ignorant on this site, Caucasians are not even entirely white to start with, there are brown Caucasians too, in fact the original Caucasians are brown skinned.

Below are the pictures of an Iranian and Jews, I challenge you to tell me who the Iranian is an who the Jew is.

How does his racism and our tribalism affect the truth about the lack of interest in knowledge and history by us, which is why this discussion started huh
Let me even directly address that nonsense from Lugard which you're ignorantly taking as gospel truth.
Lugard's view is a classic case of pseudoscientific racism and colonial ideology disguised as objective observation. He in his infinite ignorance describes Africans as a "Race type" with inherent traits, which is biologically false.
First of all, Modern genetics shows more variations within African populations than between Africans and other global population's combined. Personality traits like "thriftlessness" or "lack of foresight" are not racial attributes — They are influenced by environment, education and opportunity.
He also claimed that Africans evolved no organised religious creed and lack power of organisation, which is totally nonsense! This ignorant view erases advanced pre colonial societies like:
1. The Benin kingdom - with it's complex bureaucracy and fine arts.

2. The Ashanti empire - with it's legal and military system

3. Timbuktu - As a centre for islamic scholarship and trade

4. Zulu kingdom.

5. Abyssinia empire of the former Aksumite empire

6. Where does the fool place Egypt and all its empires and dynasties? How about the old Igbo Arọ confederacy, the Ọyọ empire, the Fulani Caliphate ?

Lugard pathologises resistance to colonialism, traits like "loving weapons" or "lacking discipline" frame resistance to foreign rule as inherent flaw, which is also exposes his racism. His countryman Mr Glover, described the hausas as a very disciplined people when it comes to military as they were quite easy to train and carryout orders just as good as their European counterparts, in fact, Glover had an army of hausas who were known as "Glover's Hausa " and it was they that were mostly used during the conquest of the southern Nigeria. Glovers Hausa is the very origin of what we call the Nigerian Army of today.
What Lugard calls lack of discipline was often strategic resistance to oppressive colonial labour and taxation systems, and "Love of weapons" reflects a history of defending sovereignty not childishness.

His phrases like 'attractive children " and 'nearer to the animal world" are racist and dehumanising tropes and I'm surprised that you, an African is trying to give validity to such nonsense. This language was used to justify paternalistic colonial policies ( "white man's burden"wink it denies African agency and maturity to legitimise foreign control.

His claims that Africans "suffer little from apprehension for the future" ignores realities like:

1. Long-term trade network ( e.g.. trans-saharn routes)

2. Agricultural innovation (terracing, irrigation)

3. Diplomatic treaties between African kingdoms and European powers.

Lugard was a colonizer justifying Britain's exploitation of Africa, all his writings are propaganda not ethnography.

Here in Nigeria only we have noble laureates, respectable individuals in both art and science doing wonders and even achieving more than their counterparts in the global stage.

Lugard was a fool, propagandist, dubious genocidal monster with supremacist ideology, his words should thrown to the trash can where it rightfully belongs.

I don't get where you're driving at. Lugard was a racist, it was so extreme that a British MP had to express dissatisfaction at his use of words and actions in the protectorates of Nigeria, this is years after the parliament have called in question his methods of acquiring treatises with the locals for the Royal Niger company.

Just because Nigerians can be tribalistic does not in any way excuse the fact that Lugard was a racist with a supremacist ideology.

You as an African should not beat yourself down just because you want to give credence to the words of a white racist like Lugard who oversaw series of genocide during the colonial wars.

Heffalump:
No matter how good Chelsea can be in any season, there are three clubs they can't beat in the premier league currently. These are Man- U, Man City, and Arsenal.

Surprisingly, these clubs used to be like baby-boys in the hands of Chelsea many years ago in the era of John Terry and Ashley Cole. What really happened?
There was never a time that United were baby boys to Chelsea even during Terry and Ashley Cole era.

Abeg my brother don't even reason go that side. The day Nigeria decides to build a nuclear facility would be the Day I Japa comot this place for good and never to come back again undecided because I'm sure there would be a nuclear fallout within 10 years of that facility going online and we don't have any health facilities to treat and manage the thousands/ millions of people who are going to be affected by the radiation.

Honestey:
Tithe is not refundable, if you mistakenly over paid for tithe spread the money over the period of subsequent tithe payment but the one you've sent, the Lord is going to put it in use straight. Halleluuuuuuuuuujah!
God does not put your tithe into use if you're not keeping all other laws and commandments in Deuteronomy and Leviticus, and you have to be a Jewish practicing Judaism for that to apply. And if you're a Judaic practitioner then you're those who are in denial of Christ, so you are not even a Christian.

Besides the tithe was supposed to be consumed by the person doing the tithing not by some clergyman.

A lot of you have never even taken your time to understand the difference between the Old testament and the new testament to understand that none of the laws in Deuteronomy applies to a Christian.

What's the scam here?
He's been emotional scammed by the church. He should report that issue to the Police and also to the bank. They will know what to do.

It is God's money and the man shouldn't be refunded. He was not forced at gun point to donate the money.
What sort of nonsense is this one talking about? Does God have a bank account abi you people no dey ever reason with your heads?
That money doesn't belong to God, tithing is not God's money, tithing was never meant to go to God, it was meant to be consumed first by the person paying the tithe. A lot of you have never even read your Bible and because of that you wallow in ignorance and give room for crooks who are modern day Pharisees and Sadducees to deceive you.

Lion is odum.
Leopard is agu.


Every other thing you said is correct.
I know that lion is ọdụm but most people call it agụ, very few even calls it ọdụm. In ìgbo culture, Agụ is usually depicted as a Lion, the isi Agụ material is usually the head of a lion not leopard for example. 🤷🏾‍♂️

I think the conversation should be around how to get Government to properly utilize tax revenue. Tax is paid any where in the world but we must see what the tax is being used for. Simple.
There are countries in the world with nearly zero taxes and they are doing far better than Nigeria.

on the contrary,the new tax law is a sigh of relief. Unless you are a high income earner,your tax will definitely reduce. Pick a copy of the tax law and read up
what is this one talking about? Even low income earners are going to be paying more tax than they do now. Taxes are going to now be on commodities that low income earners weren't paying tax for, e.g Petrol, whereas the other communities that are currently taxed will still be taxed.
It will hit even harder on middle to high income earners.
This tax is really going to worsen the unemployment problem were facing in the country

Simple, to avoid Tinubu dipping his greedy hands into our pockets we have to improvise..

Cash, crypto and other means of payment will take priority.

I will never slave for Tinubu to come and take 25% of my wealth, after providing my own water, shelter, power and other essentials without one kobo of government support.

Tinubu is the Oil minister, he has monopolized Oil wealth for himself, politicians and corrupt Supreme court judges.

Yet they still want to keep pushing their luck too far by dipping their hands into our pockets like Agberoes working for MC Oluomo under Oshodi bridge.

They are emboldened everyday because Nigerians have become docile and sedentary. Like thieves and rogues, their appetite for free money extorted from Nigerians keep growing because Nigerians have refused to push back. Now they ask for your blood.

Libya as an oil country under Ghadaffi was giving 100% free education, buying houses for citizens, free water pumped by government, free power. Almost 0% taxes. Same with many other Arab countries..

Why must Nigeria's own be different? You take the oil money, provide nothing for generality of the people, yet you ask for their blood in taxes? Wetin dey give Tinubu mind sef? IMF? World Bank? France?

By next year, if Nigerians look for 1 kobo of the money in their accounts, the only choice is will be to go the NEPAL way.
For one thing I think this tax reform is going to spark something inside Nigerians. The reason why we're docile and support Evil politicians is because somehow a lot of us are not directly effected by the policies of the governments, even when we're effected we fail to understand how those policies are the reason for why we're in that predicament. Hitting our monies directly in form of tax without any tangible improvement in the lives of the people is going to awaken us more than ever before in such a way that tribes, religion or political leaning is going to take a huge back seat and for the first time we might actually collective begin to hold government accountable. And if the government decides to show their usual hand of suppression then there's going to be an uprising because Nigerians are really suffering and struggling to make ends meet.
