PoliticsRe: Kalu’s Comment Tears Ohanaeze Youths, MASSOB Apart by IamOdin: 8:27am On Nov 02, 2016
Life is all about perspective and understanding. In this case the massob's rep sided with kalu because they share same perspective, they see things from same angle.
But that doesn't mean the ipob rep is wrong either. As for me, i'm siding with the ipob rep cos u cannot categorize the whole igbo race as businessmen. DOES IT MEAN SOME DON'T FAIL IN THE TRADING BUSINESS? OR WILL THE FAILED TRADER because OF HIS FAILURE SAY THE IGBOS ARE NOT GOOD AT TRADING. Orji-Kalu failed political wise, he should accept that and not trying to vindicate his failure with claiming a whole race should be limited to trading.

The problem facing us politically, i think, is because we have the wrong people at the helm of things.

So Mr Orji really need to apologize, he didn't make any sense.
Science/TechnologyRe: Nuclear Weapons: 20 Facts You Should Know. by IamOdin(op): 7:53am On Nov 02, 2016
11. If a nuclear power station or nuclear
waste disposal site were the target of a
nuclear attack it has been estimated that the
resulting contamination would cover an
area nearly 3 times that of Wales.1


12. Survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
referred to the pain and suffering as
‘indescribable’ and ‘hell on earth’. Eventually
some survivors of Hiroshima arrived in
hospital elsewhere. Such was their degree
of suffering that when a nurse entered the
ward they screamed for her to kill them.3


13. There have been various crises since
1945 when the world came within a hair’s
breadth of nuclear war. Our luck will run
out. The system is held primed at all times.


14. In one crisis a single man saved the
world from destruction. If Stanislav Petrov,
in 1983, had told his Russian superiors that
his electronic monitors were signalling a
massive nuclear attack from the US, there
would have been a global nuclear war. He
did not tell them and the signals turned out
to have been due to a malfunction.


15. A nuclear war would cause a blanket of
particles in the atmosphere that would blot
out the sun’s rays and result in the death of
the vegetation on which life depends. This
would be in addition to the death of people,
animals, and plants caused by the explosive
power, the radiation and the shockwaves.


16. Each of the weapons carried on the UK
Trident submarine is 7 times more
destructive than the Hiroshima bomb which
killed 140,000. The UK Trident submarine
carries 16 Trident missiles. Each missile can
contain 3 No. 100 kiloton weapons. A single
submarine is designed to carry over 300
times the destructive power of the
Hiroshima bomb.


17. The nuclear weapons on a single Trident
submarine can destroy over 40 million
people (extrapolating from Hiroshima).


18. The UK nuclear arsenal alone has the
destructive power to destroy over 80% of
the 195 capital cities of the world.


19. We in the UK have 4 Trident submarines;
our ally, the US, has 14.


20. Trident renewal will cost the taxpayer 97
thousand million pounds yet it is totally
useless in opposing any real existing
threat,

Science/TechnologyRe: Nuclear Weapons: 20 Facts You Should Know. by IamOdin(op): 7:50am On Nov 02, 2016
1. There are at least 23,000 nuclear
weapons in existence: sufficient to wipe out
the entire human population of the planet
many times over.


2. Of the 23,000 nuclear weapons in
existence around 2,500 are on High Alert.
This means they are ready to be launched at
a moment’s notice.


3. The missiles delivering nuclear weapons
to their target travel at faster than 1000
miles in 4 minutes.


4. The only way our armed forces have of
knowing if a nuclear attack is in progress is
through an electronic early warning system.
This system, like all electronic systems, is
subject to malfunction.


5. When the electronic warning system
signals that a nuclear attack is in progress
the military chiefs of staff have a matter of
minutes to decide if the warning is true or
false.


6. If the chiefs of staff instruct the Prime
Minister/President that an attack is in
progress he has a matter of minutes to
decide if this information is reliable and to
press the button launching a retaliatory
strike.


7. Central London would be utterly
destroyed by a single megaton bomb.1


8. One such bomb would, due to the blast
alone, cause 98% deaths from Westminster
to the City of London and from Lambeth to
Marylebone.1


9. A modelled attack on Detroit2 (when the
population was 1.32 million) predicted that
a single 1 megaton bomb exploded above
the city would cause up to 630,000 deaths
and injuries from blast alone. 83% of the
population would be immediately killed or
injured. Many of the remaining population
would die or suffer terribly from the effects
of radioactive fallout.


10. One 5 megaton nuclear bomb has as
much explosive power as all the explosives
used in the second world war.
Science/TechnologyNuclear Weapons: 20 Facts You Should Know. by IamOdin(op):
dissidentvoice.org/2010/09/nuclear-weapons-20-facts-they-don’t-want-you-to-think-about/

Nuclear arsenals: who wants them? — A
coterie of politicians.

Why do they want them? — For the illusion
of power and to feed their egos.

How do they keep them? — By fostering a
culture of fear.

How do they do that? — By positing a
Threatening and Unknown Future.

There are 5 primary nuclear weapons states
(and four others from proliferation). The
politicians of these 5 nuclear states put the
future of the citizens of all the other 187
states of the UN at risk as well as their own
citizens because of their insistence in
keeping their nuclear arsenals.
In no case have the citizens been asked if
they want these arsenals.
The reason these politicians want these
Armageddon weapons is because they
believe it gives them stature and power;
makes them players; gets their feet under
the top table. For this perceived personal
benefit they are prepared to put the survival
of the human race at risk.
Nuclear arsenals are the ruthless tools of
power-fixated individuals.
In order to keep their arsenals, these
individuals must keep the citizens in
ignorance. We have a vague dread of these
things and what they can do. Humanity has
a residual group memory of the
unspeakable suffering of Hiroshima and
Nagasaki. But this is very scary. We don’t
want to think about it. And that suits the
power junkies just fine. Ignorance is power
– for the junkies – but not the citizens.
If the truth about nuclear weapons was
known there would be millions
demonstrating in cities round the world.
The arsenals would be dismantled.

The effects of nuclear explosions on people
defy the imagination and our ability (and
willingness) to contemplate such degrees of
human suffering. But how can we make
rational judgements if we do not face the
nightmarish facts?
Reciting facts will not ensure the necessary
degree of knowing. But it is a start – the
basis for critical evaluation.

So here are 20 facts you should know but they wish u didn't:

Foreign AffairsRe: Russia Unveils 'Satan 2' Missile Image by IamOdin: 2:56pm On Nov 01, 2016
Bants:
(1) Do you see what Russia is doing in Syria
(2) Why did Snowden want to go back to America after receiving Asylum in Russia
(3) Why are Russians fighting in Ukraine
(4) Just recent they launched Satan 2 stating it can blow up Texas why are you instigating rubbish when what we need is dialogue
(5) Russia is still on Sanction..
(6) Let me ask you between Russia and America Visa which one will you accept (Cheeky question)
(7) Why didn't Putin step down after his first two tenure then killed his opposition and his doing another 2 term. Cos if Jonathan did that in Nigeria we go mad.
(1) Read and be wise, cos if it was obama that said this the media would be championing it around. This was 3yrs ago which means the conflict wouldn't have been this bloody were he taken serious.

www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-10-26/putin-tried-warn-us-about-syria-three-years-ago-nobody-listened

(2) Snowden isn't a russian, that he was granted asylum doesn't mean he can't go back to his country if he wishes.

(3) russia isn't fighting in ukraine, secessionists are.

(4) Exactly my point. Russia will release a press statement, the MSM will twist it and feed the public GARBAGE.
FYI bro, the russians decided to declassify the projects info and gave the company co-handling the project a go-ahead to release preliminary images of the missile.
They did, and followed it up with a BRIEF MESSAGE ( i won't tell u the message, go figure. And be wise).
So everything u read about the sarmat in the media are mere speculations and if u doubt, show me with a quote where the russians said the missile can wipe out texas.

(5) America is still on sanction, for every sanction there are counter-sanctions from the russians. Go read bro.

(6) I would chose none. I'M HAPPY A NIGERIAN AND WOULD REMAIN HERE ALL MY LIFE.

(7) You aren't as educated as the russians, so they know what they want. Putin was democratically re-elected. And as at last year still has over 90% approval rating in his country.
My brother, if putin decides to contests 50 times, he will win 50 times. Sorry for the disappointment!

it wasn't made up political jobbers and selfish individuals who abandons reality to always discuss what pleases their paymasters to the detriment of their own blood thereby making blood money and parading themselves as igbo leaders. I don't have an atom of respect for fools of that category.

For once in recent times, our elders spoke with interest of their people first before considering others and that's what it should have been. "CHARITY begins at HOME" If those imbeciles, idiots and animalistic selfish political jobbers we have have been championing our interest we would have gone far by now. it's their callousness that made IPOB to be bashing them without restraint.
Are u telling me that if Nnamdi Kanu were to be from Hausa he will still be in detention even when the court has said otherwise and is also clear Nigeria had on case against him? Or will the Fed. gov. keep arresting, torturing and detaining innocent and peaceful people without resistance from their political class? Thank God their senses are coming home gradually.

I want to talk of dog fights , not missile defences.
Bro, i'm glad u know this so that when the western media starts beating the drums about russia invading other countries, you can easily discern the truth. Russia isn't the problem of this world, america is. If they can just stay in their country and leave other countries to sort their problems the way they want the world would be a better place, but they'd rather not because they know that any war is their gain.

Russia's military is centered more on defense rather than attack because they fear being invaded (they have a culture of being invaded. And of course, who won't want a chunk of those massive lands filled with resources).

If u read closely about their weapons you'll notice they have more defensive weapons than attacking ones. They have only one air-craft carrier whilst america has many.

AMERICA IS THE UNDISPUTED AGGRESSOR.

Your claims about america are outrageous. Forget about CNN, I listened to news on a daily basis even on al-jazeera. The western media do not hide truth of events in the country especially when it comes to killings. where did they bury those you alleged are killed in thousands or don't they have family?

One fifth of America's population is blacks if i am not mistaken, in addition, there are a lot of hindu, muslims, christians and other tribes that are freely living there. The ones that are considered security risk are those they considered extremists and I can't blame them because of what they have seen before (9/11 and others). Even if goat did not born well, people will say it is america, fowl did not lay good egg, it is america.

what you see happening in the middle east is as a result of long period of tyrant leaders and dictatorship by Saddam, Gadaffi and now syria Assad. Iran will still explode, it is just a matter of time. I know when the time comes you will say it is america.
