There's a thin line between bravery and stupidity. One man standing up to tanks only connotes foolery.

It worked didn't it

Bravery is bravery, facing up to tanks is bravery

Unlike a lot of you, if an idf soldier displayed bravery, I'd admit it and call it bravery

Simple

Kirk killed as predicted in an open-air event and we have several idiot groypers as patsies.
Message delivered to MAGA leaders.
Stay in line. Or you're next.
Maybe it was us. Maybe it wasn't us. But you'll never be sure. And that serves us just fine.

Thankfully, we are on a preordained path that ends in freedom for Palestine.
Regardless of who is assassinated.
Not even assassinating 47 will change their fortunes.
Sinwar's gambit had a simple premise. Make the world see the underbelly of Israel.
That's all it'd take.

The bast**d felt the need to clarify he didn't do it.
Like we give a sh*t.

-Lord

Charlie Kirk complained that his phone was getting blown up by texts and calls from AIPAC people and Jewish lobby officials because he was asking uncomfortable questions

The context is especially striking because israel has embarked on a hasbara drive anchored through popular MAGA influencers, so having a prominent MAGA influencer undermine it was bad for business

Now, reread the filth you wrote up there and tell me who has been let down by their hero.

I'm a lawyer and my heroes are those who stand for justice including Jews like Norman Finkelstein, Avi Shlaim, Omer Bartov, Miko Peled, Gideon Levy, Noam Chomsky, Ilan Pappe, Peter Beinart, Max Blumenthal, Katie Harper, Rabbi Weiss, Dave Smith, Ori Goldberg etc. I could go on and on

Your heroes are war criminals and sociopaths, Jews like netanyahu, ben gvir, smotrich, yoav gallant etc.

Human qualities are human qualities, the orientation doesn't matter. Whether Jews, Christians, Muslims, it doesn't matter, what infact matters are the principles they stand for

And you think the normalisation of ties between Israel and Saudi Arabia won't happen in the future? Who would believe that the Abraham accords will ever be a reality? Who believed the UAE would normalise ties with Israel?
As for the so called global recognition of Palestine, several countries have recognized Palestinian state for decades, including Nigeria. How has that benefited the average Palestinian? Mind you, Saudi Arabia still does trade with Israel, despite the lack of official ties between them. Turkiye, with all the talk, still trades with Israel.
As for the West Bank government, you and I know very much that that governments is a cesspool of corruption with so many leaders in bed with the Americans and Israelis secretly.
For your information, the PLO hasn't even had strong institutions that checks the government officials in power. Within Abbas's government are numerous backstabbers, sleeper cells etc with intense disagreements among officials.
Israel simply took advantage of these loopholes in the West Bank government, infiltrated it sabotaged it from within.
The Palestinians need to take care of their houses first...

You've deviated from your claim of Hamas being the problem but I'll indulge you

The so-called Abraham accords has always been unpopular in the region and now with israel's actions in Palestine and beyond, the accords are in more jeopardy than they've ever been...even Egypt's long term truce agreement is looking shaky

Saudi being friends with israel may indeed happen in future, but definitely not the nearest future

Do you think israel likes the overwhelming attention that Palestine is getting globally? They'd rather bury the question of Palestine quietly and throw away the shovel...israel has lost a lot since October 7

With regard to the PA, their romance with israel isn't hidden, it's very public and that's one of the reasons they're very unpopular among Palestinians. That's aside the corruption they're known for and general ineffectiveness

The fact that the PA simping for israel and the US hasn't stopped Palestinian land usurpation in the form of settlement building and infact, israel is embarking on the biggest land theft of West Bank land in it's history, rubbishes your claim of Hamas being the problem

If the PA isn't good enough despite their bending for Israel, then who's good enough?

Hamas is only a symptom of the problem and not the problem itself. The problem is israeli occupation, land seizures and theft, brutality, denial of justice, apartheid and general oppression of Palestinians

There are already several armed groups beside Hamas and they'll continue to emerge if things remain the same

You should watch Louis Theroux's documentary called the settlers....no fair and honest person will question why Palestinians resort to armed resistance after seeing it

⚡Qatar's PM:

Israeli leaders are afflicted with arrogance and intoxication of power because they have ensured impunity.

Iran has already shown how to deal with them

Talking and noise isn't a language they understand...it took the threat of leveling tel aviv and making israel Gaza 2.0, for them to sheathe their sword after attacking Iran unprovoked

If truly things happened as Qatar claimed they did, then a re-assessment of the security agreement with the US must be on the table...the US greenlit the attack and stood down it's air defenses for israel

Personally, I like the fact that Trump's actions which I'm sure are often against the wishes of some of his advisers, seem to be fast eroding US credibility in the region

The US have used negotiations to bait Iranian and Hamas officials for israel and that's just unheard of. It's a new low for a supposed superpower with power to influence a lot in the region and exposes Trump as being too beholden to Israel to act rationally for long term interests

We shall see where this all leads us in the future

Michaeltreasure:
And how has that benefited the average Palestinian?
Face it bro! Hamas is the bane of the Palestinians. October 7 achieved nothing, absolutely nothing! Other than misery and pain for innocent and harmless civilians on both sides.
Until the Palestinians take their destiny in their own hands and chase Hamas out of their lives, they will never know peace.
Take that to the bank... Ü

It's cute that you think, or want to believe whatever the case may be, that Hamas is the problem

israel has rejected the Palestinian Authority (PA) having any authority in both the West Bank and Gaza...they accuse the PA of supporting terrorism and are usurping a lot of Palestinian land

October 7 ensured that the Palestinian Cause didn't die. Saudi was on the verge of a normalisation deal with israel and if that had been achieved, that would have been a death knell for Palestinians

Today despite the very high cost paid by the Palestinians, the question of Statehood is once again front and center globally and despite the genocide, erasure of the Palestinian Cause is that much harder

Hamas has already agreed to relinquish power in a post war Gaza, the problem is israeli usurpation of Palestinian lands and even beyond

LordAdam16:
A major source of Hamas munitions are Israeli unexploded ordinances.

Complemented by smuggling.
From Egypt to Gaza.
From Jordan to the West Bank.

Both Sisi and the Hashemites use it as a cudgel/insurance.
Tel Aviv knows if they go, they'll be replaced by Muslim Brotherhood patrons, who are the OG parent organization of Hamas.
They already had a sneak peek under Morsi.

The Sinwar plan has progressed smoothly so far.
One big prize is somehow voiding the Egypt-Israel accords.
The gambit is that it'll compel Egypt to seize Gaza and unilaterally trigger a declaration of Palestinian independence.

---

Militarily, if Egypt's only goal is to seize Gaza and install a Palestinian government, they have the capacity and international legal backing to do so.
Trying to forestall this is why Egypt receives the second most military aid from the US after Israel.
Why Tel Aviv looks the other way while Egypt permits limited smuggling.
And why Satanyahu hasn't responded militarily to Egypt deploying 40,000 troops to Sinai in contravention of the Egypt-Israel treaty.
He only suspended the gas deal. Egypt is okay with that trade off.

When Sisi warned Trump that an attack on Cairo will carry catastrophic consequences, he was not bloviating.
This fairly favorable position is why he is insisting that there will be no displacement of Gazans under any guise.

---

Many have speculated that Sisi is a puppet.
That is half true.
He is actually being held back by the Gulf monarchs.
Egypt will need funds to prosecute an SMO in Gaza.
But the moneybags in Qatar, UAE, and Kuwait, heck even Saudi Arabia, cannot protect themselves.
So if Egypt moves into Gaza, the USreal will pick off the Gulf monarchs one by one. Checkmate!

Otherwise, if it is by capability.
Egypt can mobilize 2 million men to seize Gaza and Iran + the Axis of Resistance will ensure the Egyptians win by going all out and forcing a 12D-esque Israeli surrender.

-Lord

The whole thing is precarious, especially for the US, but israel seems to be self-absorbed at the moment

The Gulf seemed to be immune and the safe spot, but that's fast becoming a red zone

Currently the US holds sway in the Gulf, but there's no telling what the future might portend due to israel's intransigence

shoodboi2:
Yep, the tunnels have smuggling routes that open up into Egypt. Back in 2007, Hamas even used them to smuggle animals, including hyenas and lions, for Gaza’s zoo.

As for the tunnels themselves, they are a life assignment for Israel. Reports indicate they go 7 to 8 levels deep. The ones Israel destroys are the top ones. The deepest ones are so underground that air cannot reach them and Hamas has to use ventilation systems to pump air into them.

They have no idea what they've gotten themselves into

Hoaxen:
stop pretending that you don't know how Hamas is getting supplies.

Aid theft!
They steal aid meant for Palestinians and then accuse Israel of starving their people

It is the only logical thing to do. They have serious moral issues but I don't see how I wouldn't join them as a Palestinian

The israelis have taken a blood debt from the Palestinians and beyond, peace is a mirage in that region for the foreseeable future

Alamkiir:
This is the part I never get till now, how are those guys surviving on supplies to fight for almost 2yrs since everywhere is blockade. isreal cant even survive fighting only Hamas for a year without supplies from US. How are this guys doing it?

Apart from the fact that they amassed weaponry over the years for such an eventuality, I suspect that there are smuggling routes that extend outside Gaza through the tunnel system

Keep in mind that israel hasn't still figured out the extent of the tunnel network and still doesn't know a lot of entry and exit points

If there's a smuggling route, it could lead into Egypt and the Egyptians might be helping them covertly...israel's relations with Egypt have been tense for quite sometime and Palestinian displacement isn't in Egypt's interest

This is all speculation though and I agree that it's remarkable how they've been fighting a high intensity battle for two years now, when the israelis have been dependent on foreign aid to keep up

[i]You haven't seen any heroics from the IDF!! What a cliche the graves of Hamas and Hazebolla leaders and members are a testimony to the war prowess of the jews

Go read your history mate, the state of Israel was created in war, the Jews have a rich history of military victories even when faced with overwhelming odds

Palestine Resistance fighters!!!
🤣🤣

The Hamas and Hizbullah leaders were killed almost exclusively from planes flying 1000's of feet in the air without facing any air defense, very brave

Don't quote any revised history for me concerning israel, when they can't face just Resistance Fighters alone without unlimited US and Western support in the form of over a 1000 flights supplying arms and ammunition, surveillance flights, intelligence sharing, foreign fighters (including US Evangelicals, an Indian contingent, a Ukrainian contingent etc), Western armies acting as air defense forces for Israel etc

israel has NEVER fought a war on its own

sainttwist1:
100%.........seconded by me

He should go and test is bravery against the idf😂😂😂😂😂😂

To most people of the world, the idf are terrorists

Alamkiir:
As of now, I don't think there should be any Palestinian adult male that shouldn't join the fight. Israel gives Palestinian men no option but to join Hamas, it's either you die fighting for your existence or die humiliatingly in aid centres or on the road running. No matter what, you will die.

I don't think Palestinians need any prodding to join the fight, like you said it's existential for them

There'll be no shortage of available fighters because a lot of men have no more motivation in their lives than to fight, having witnessed their families killed and the inhumanity unleashed on them...recruitment won't be a problem for the Resistance

My personal worry is sufficient supplies to sustain resistance, but either way, Resistance is Palestinian culture and they'll die on it

Gbadebo19:
Since you have watched many resistance videos, wouldn't you also like to be a hero. Your next sabbatical should be a chosen location like Gaza. It is the best way to display the bravery in you.

What they call "bravery" is actually radicalization, "Islamic radicalism"

Some persons are being brainwashed to go and carry out suicidal missions, in the hope that they are doing god will and will go to a make believe paradise and for the male will have 99 ..... waiting for them!!

Most of the hits on IDF tanks are civilians wearing suicide belts running towards military vehicles and blowing up themselves!! and one fellow is calling it bravery

[i]Who in his right senses go against an armoured tank without a anti tank weapon?[/i]

A coward (especially an idf supporter) can never understand bravery

Moreover, no one in the video posted wore a suicide belt

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This one done give Hamas new name, stop sugar coating terrorism, we know who you are and what you stand for!!

You are looking for bravery, go read about the Normandy landings expecially the Omaha beach section in WW2

It's ironic that the guy who's usually not brave enough to quote people directly and talks around them, chose to quote me on a post about bravery

Maybe the Resistance Fighters made you ashamed enough to look inward and summon the courage to quote me directly

I've not seen a single video of heroics from the idf, all I've seen are videos of them running, maybe that's why you couldn't counter with an example from the idf and had to go all the way back to world war 2

Continue watching videos of Resistance operations, it'll inspire the bravery in you, if you have any

Good day, everyone.

I just came across the numbers from the ongoing Nigeria Customs Service recruitment, and honestly, it hit me hard. It’s not just about Customs—it’s about the painful reality of employment in Nigeria. Let’s break it down:

📌 Number of Applicants: 573,523
📌 Shortlisted Candidates: 286,697
📌 Available Vacancies: 3,927

Now pause and think about this. Nearly 600,000 Nigerians applied, and even after shortlisting, over 282,000 qualified candidates will still be dropped along the way.

Not because they are lazy. Not because they are unqualified. But simply because the opportunities are painfully limited.

Imagine—thousands of young graduates, parents, hustlers, and breadwinners—all chasing less than 4,000 seats. This isn’t just a recruitment drive; it’s a mirror showing us how deep our unemployment problem really is.

For every few who succeed, hundreds of thousands are left to start the search again. The system forces brilliance, effort, and dreams into a brutal lottery of chance.

This is the Nigeria we live in.
This is the crisis we must confront.

What are your thoughts, Nairalanders? Is there any real solution to this ever-growing unemployment mess? Or are we just running in circles while millions waste away in joblessness?

Nigeria is the country of every Nigerian and it's the choice of every Nigerian to either build or destroy it

The choice begins with the decisions we make to either better the Country, or ruin it due to selfish interests or self-sabotage

Politicians have shown they don't prioritize the well being of the Country, what about you?

Bravery, yet Gaza is an apocalypse scene

Well that's the point

Against overwhelming odds, facing a far more powerful army and at the risk of death, they carry out extraordinary feats like climbing tanks behind enemy lines and dropping explosives in them

Bravery connotes facing challenges and taking them on...it doesn't get much more braver than a lone individual standing up to tanks
