War is evil and innocents suffer on both side of war. But a true army with humanity at heart will invest billions to protect her citizens as much as they can, not to provoke an attack that puts her citizens at risk.

You'll make a stupid comment and be confident you made a point

First of all, there's only one army in this 'war', Hamas and the Resistance factions aren't an army, neither is there a Palestinian State. What exists are administrative territories not under the full control of the Palestinians i.e. both West Bank and Gaza

The Resistance factions are regular people who got fed up of being abused, having their lands and properties seized for settlers from abroad, detained arbitrarily with no prisoner rights, killed indiscriminately with no accountability, having their daily lives militarized with soldiers constantly aiming their guns at them, having their holy sites daily violated and the restriction of their religious rights etc.

The Resistance groups are a people's militia, agitating for freedom from subjugation and abuse. That's not a hard concept to grasp

I won't even waste my time with this human shield nonsense claim, that is nothing but a complete disregard for the lives of Palestinians on the part of those who claim it

Instead of stupid posts like these, you should be more like Cancri and Kingsnairaland who have revealed the basis of their bias quite clearly and stop trying to feign logic in your support, because there is none in it

There's no logic in supporting Israeli barbarism, absolutely none, that's why it's clear to me that only skewed religious reasons could be behind it, or hatred for Muslims. That's it

Israel is just another gimmicky army, just like the US, UK, and France. Other than missiles and airstrikes, they have nothing else. Their armies are good for mopping up at best.

Israel itself is a big disappointment. Gaza is a counterinsurgency paradise. You have the enemy locked on all sides and Israel literally controls all entries and exits.

Gaza is also small. Most of it is a city. A city filled with Israeli spies. And it's every easy to observe it with drones and satellites. Israel even raids it frequently.

Yet, Israel has failed in everything. It failed in containing Hamas, not to talk of defeating them. It even failed in rescuing its own hostages, and has ended up killing more hostages than it has rescued.

Even an army staffed by babies, imbeciles, and cockroaches would give us more results than Israel has given us in Gaza. Nonsense army.

You've perfectly captured the extent of incompetence

DystopianMuse:

This is one of those reasons Islam is hated all around the world. You guys views everything from Islam. Vs Them views.

No wonder you guys all results to violence at any slight opportunity

Russia US UK France are perceived Christians nation all have nuclear weapons.
So congrats to Christian world
For Israel. To the Zionist world
Nonsense and ingredients.

Well Iran's official name is Islamic Republic of Iran, so why the surprise?

If you're referring to Vl3ly, those aren't his words, he's relaying information

Vl3ly:
🔻The name of the seventh settler killed in the attack in Jaffa was published: Victor Shimshon Green

These settlers are responsible for many of the deaths you hear about in the West Bank and many of the attacks on Palestinian homes, properties and villages

They walk around with assault rifles and are military reservists

israeli society needs a reformation, the claim of being a democratic nation is bogus. Zionism is diametrically opposed to the stated values of democracy

Vl3ly:
⚡️Former commander of the Gaza Division in the occupation army, "Ghadi Shamni":

The situation in Gaza is complex and difficult, and the goals of the war have not been achieved, Hamas has not been subdued, and we have not been able to return the prisoners

According to the most delusional zionists on this thread, this guy is lying. Hamas has been defeated

Vl3ly:
🇵🇸🇮🇱⚡️- Red alerts in Ashkelon, rocket fire from Gaza.

Israelis aren't built for combat

The Resistance still shoots projectiles and NO part of Gaza is under their control...Gaza will be to the zionists what Afghanistan was to the Americans

12months in and no single objective achieved, as in none

They have armaments, they lack fighters

Oshokhai69:
Now, imagine Scondy making that kind of dumb statement. Dem go let her rest? 🤔

On another note though, can we trace the quality decline and viewer disinterest to representation issues?

N3TRAL:
In a predominantly white country, if there is an intent to train 5-year-olds for future elite marathon careers, the Kenyan or Ethiopian child in the class will likely be chosen over any white child. Similarly, if the goal is to train for Olympic sprint events like the 100 or 200 meters, children of West African descent will be favored over their white peers.

In contrast, an average white child has a better chance of being selected for a swimming competition than an average Black child. Despite America’s rivalry with China, Asian-Americans tend to be favored to represent the U.S. in table tennis or global math competitions.


List the top 10 girls considered to be pretty on the show from each season in no particular order an the average viewers will mention:


Kim Oprah- Igbo
Erica- Igbo
Nengi- Bayelsa
Maria- Igbo
Venita- Delta
T-boss- Edo
Victoria - Igbo
Kassia - Bayelsa
Beauty - North
Saskay- North

Those with peculiar facial features and exotic beauty seem to come from the Northern minorities who are Christians.

I'm not saying that those from the aforesaid regions in Southern Nigeria are the prettiest, nope.

There are thousands of pretty tall, sexy Hausa-Fulani babes "littered" across Abuja but they're not going to audition because they're majorly Muslims and even if they do audition, no sane audition team is selecting a pretty Fulani babe into a house with cartons of alcoholic drinks and handsome Bachelors ready to kiss their lips and suck their nipples during a truth/dare game. We've seen how Kannywood actresses are tortured for revealing skin and how most Northern states do not even produce their indigenes to represent in "Miss Nigeria" contest.

Islamic conservatism reduces participation from Northern regions, leaving Southern Nigeria as the primary demographic pool for such shows. Whether it's a show like Keeping up with the Kardashians or Love Island, good looks are essential to attracting viewers.

Among male contestants, Yoruba housemates such as Tobi, Mike Edwards, Seyi, and Sheggz have advanced far in these BBN, partly due to their physical appeal.


Conversely, contestants like Dami and Toyosi were eliminated early, due to a lack of immediate appeal. Week 1 relies heavily on appearance, as viewers have not yet formed opinions on contestants' personalities.

When thinking of the most successful Yoruba female housemate, Bisola often comes to mind. While she advanced far due to her talent, her appearance played a lesser role in her selection. Even Laycon, who won the show, secured victory largely through sympathy votes, not because of his looks.

Ultimately, the selection process for Big Brother Naija places a significant emphasis on appearance, as they are designed for entertainment, not talent competitions like America's Got Talent.

Consequently, regions with a higher perceived concentration of attractive individuals tend to dominate the show.

In short, Igbos are more good looking than Yorubas, so the imbalance is justified for a show like BBN

FUUUUU
UNTIL ISRAEL RETALIATE

Not long ago it was Iran that delayed retaliation, while Israel just acted

You just solidified my point

The script has flipped, Iran is the bullish one and Israel the cautious one

Seems like some people are realizing they have an elastic limit

Cancri:
you guys won't understand.
Israel is being bullied by the Arabs, but she will fight those that bully her

Explain to me how the:

3rd Strongest economy in the region✔️

Most technologically advanced country in the region ✔️

Most technologically advanced army in the region ✔️

Most modern weapons in the region ✔️

The only country in the region the collective west actively defends✔️

The only nuclear power in the region ✔️

The biggest arms manufacturer and exporter in the region ✔️

is being bullied. This victimhood nonsense doesn't fly

What's wrong with my first paragraph??

Thank God dem no mention Dystopianmuse and ally Kremlingrad.

List of posters who mention or make reference to religion

1. MichaelTreasure (He quoted you, likening posts to Islamic extremism)
2. Okeysoninv (even though I like this guy)
3. Holla91
4. Lawag3
5. AlltheLight
6. Obedience4
7. Kingnairaland (when it comes to Israel)
8. Botragelad

The above named posters either use religion to justify their positions, or they infuse religion into conversations

I have NEVER based my views on religion

I left out Cancri, the more extreme version of AlltheLight

obedience4:
As long as the discuss is about the middle-east and the Israeli War against extremists. Religion would always creap into the discuss

We are discussing about terrorists groups like Hamas, Houthis and Hezbollah This are terrorist groups which are largely influenced by religion, A simple glance at the ideologies and manifestos of these terror groups, one can easily find that their doctrines are anti American imperialism and anti zionism all based and backed by teachings from the Islamic RELIGION.

So when discussing matters relating to the Jews righteous war against the collective aggression of Iran and his Cohorts of terror groups, matters relating to religion is bound to spring up.

But I do wonder what criteria was used to formulate such list, How come i am named among dose propagating religion on this holy thread.

The list isn't of those propagating religion, it's about posts of yours like your first paragraph

To understand why I made the list, follow the conversation trail

motayoayinde:
You know something about extremists?
They can't take a pinch of what they give to others in barrels.

Most of them are emotional and sentimental, it's easy to pick them apart

Lawag3:
Breaking: The new Hezbollah leader who replaced the previous new Hezbollah leader who was eliminated after he replaced the previous leader who was eliminated, was eliminated tonight.

Three Hezbollah leaders eliminated in one week. DON'T F*CK WITH ISRAEL

He was targeted, his current status is unknown

Take it easy

Lawag3:
Nobody here is trying to win anyone else to their religion. Religious posts to champion a political cause should be allowed.

I'm just showing respect to the creator of this lovely thread WrriterNg

Your opinion should be tendered to him

With all said and done sha, this thread was a major reason for earlier shutting down Nairaland. Infact, I believe it was the reason it was shut down, there's a lot of evidence to suggest that and it was because of the posts exposing israeli crimes

All the same, it's writterng's thread and he wants more Russia-Ukraine content than any other and that's understandable

But the fear of Nigerian authorities coming for us here is baseless, because Nigeria is officially for a Two State Solution and has no problems with the Palestinian resistance or Hezbollah. The threat is from zionists who've already shut down the site once and might prompt the closure of this thread or shutdown the site again

Either way, we should keep everything respectful and fact-based

WrriterNg:
Bro nobody is saying don't post Middle East topics.

As long as it isn't religious. Bcuz it can't quickly spiral into something dangerous. You know how we Nigerians can carry religion for head.

Let's stick to the politics please. Especially foreign politics.

You have been on this thread since the early days. No one has ever complained about your posts before.

You're not the only person sef. Okeysoninv, OkpaNsukkaisBae and a few others are guilty of this.

Suit thyself!
If you see nothing wrong in those posts, then there's no difference between you and those Israelis you passionately hate. People with such ideology aren't fighting for the liberation of an oppressed people, they're simply filled with hate for a set of people.
Every terrorist group today started with the desire to free a set of people they believe is oppressed. That desire as an emotion grows into hatred, hence, birthing terrorism.
All those posts I'm condemning are filled with hate for Israel not love for the Palestinians. Till today, super rich Arab nations are not helping the Palestinians, there simply arming them to kill Isrealis. I feel for the innocent Palestinians caught between all this quagmire.

Bros don't quote me again with gibberish

WrriterNg:
My brother i don talk am tire, say make we stick to Russia Ukraine NATO discussions only.

If you want Israel or religious topics, many threads dey for am. This na the only Russia Ukraine NATO thread for the whole Nairaland, make we no go spoil am.

Unfortunately I no fit see every post here, even the mods no go fit see everything.

If dem never close the thread, dem no go rest.

But no discourage at all, afterall 98% of this thread content na about the original topic.

It's your thread and I've gained a lot from it

If you're not cool with Middle East posts/comments, I'll refrain from posting

I'll not aid in derailing your vision

Peace

Michaeltreasure:
Whatever you claim, that's your problem.
Gone are the times I read beautiful political arguments on this thread, just Islamic extremist posts.
For your information, I'm not a Zionist, I dont give a damn about Israel or Palestine. I just love knowledge and beautiful arguments, not religious extremists contents..

Once again cure thy ignorance

Michaeltreasure:
Now I see why anti Palestine agents like the Israelis swiftly kill them. You mean that attire is a traditional Palestinian dress? The same type of dress Ive seen on terrorist pics all over the internet?
By the way, I've never seen a pic of traditional Palestinian women dressing with Arabic quotes all over, not even on Al Jazeera

You just revealed your ignorance, hence my advice for you to educate yourself

Calm down and go learn, the thread is fine, your ignorance is the problem

Zionists aren't happy with this thread at all

Michaeltreasure:
Please, what's happening to this thread? Where are the beautiful military and political analysis this thread was known for? I miss all those arguments from both the pro west, pro east and the non allied supporters. This thread used to be full of knowledge.
I seems like religious extremists have taken over. All I read these days are Islamic extremists glorifying terrorism, especially since the latest Iran-Israel conflict.
Someone even posted a glorified picture of a woman draped in Al Qaeda like attire. What's happening?
WriterNG, check this thread you created! Instead of smart and intelligent political and military assessment of the Israel Iran conflict, I'm just seeing Islamic extremists post ever where.
Seun, your attention is needed here. Some people have hijacked this fountain of intelligence and turned it into a hide out for potential terrorists.
If Nairaland were to be based in advanced countries or even in Saudi Arabia or Egypt, Seun would have been summoned for questioning by now.
Those extremists posting terrorist contents on this thread are giving Islam a bad name. Makes me wonder if Islam is truly a violent religion as is popularly said...

That's a Palestinian woman wearing a Palestinian Keffiyeh, a traditional Palestinian scarf

Go and educate yourself, don't just be spewing ignorance

I love Hamas combat videos with the Inverted Red Arrow and the highlighted targets, once you see those, it's a HIT, pun intended

obedience4:
No need for us to agure, Israel is a Jewish state period, are they no Christians in Iran? Yet we say Iran is an Islamic State

I don't wanna agure
