The US leads others follow, if they could handle it during world war 2 even at 106% trust them to still handle this. The most important thing is their debt service to revenue ratio, and investors confidence.

The US is not a disgraced country of concern,
that is spending well over half of her federal revenue on servicing debts.

Power minister no dey carry power bank Waka for US. The US will not borrow billions to build coastal highways that will be overrun by terrorists, ODOGU world power for a reason.

educatedfool:
You're mixing emotion, assumptions, and headlines, then calling it analysis. That video you shared doesn't show people being forced into anything. It shows a human chain. That's something people around the world do voluntarily during protests or to show solidarity. Jumping from that to "they're being used as shields" without proof is you filling in gaps with your own narrative.

Voluntary, you are the one that organised the protest with sole aim of human shields for it to know it was voluntary I guess.

A "strong country wouldn't allow it”? Strong countries also allow protests, even risky ones. Citizens making a choice doesn't automatically mean the military has failed. Unless you're saying any government that doesn't physically drag people away from demonstrations is weak, which doesn't really hold up.

A strong country will not allow civilians to protest around a facility that has been targeted for bombing. How did you know that the citizens made the choice in the first place?

On your media point, you're acting like having "faces" and global offices automatically makes every report accurate. It doesn't. Big outlets have gotten major stories wrong before, sometimes badly. That's exactly why people question claims instead of treating them as gospel. Credibility isn't about size alone, it's about evidence.

I never said all their reports were accurate, you are the one being blinded by western media sentiments. When it suits your narratives their story is TRUE, but FALSE when it doesn't lol!!!

Your whole argument leans heavily on exaggeration. "Airspace occupied," "everything thrown," "careless missiles." If all of that were literally true in the way you're presenting it, the outcome would be very different and not something we'd be casually debating. You're turning complex military and political realities into dramatic one-liners.

Can you please dispute my fact, was Khamenei killed, using a babalawo calabash from Isreal? Or did Isreal use spiritual powerss, can you please tell me where and how Khamenei was killed?

And the assassination point again, you keep repeating it like it settles everything. Security failures happen everywhere. If one high-profile hit defines a country's strength, then no country, including the ones you're praising, comes out looking strong.

I ask again, if your most protected supreme leader could be killed like house flies, what then is the fate of the ordinary man?

What really stands out is how certain you are while relying on interpretations rather than solid proof. You're not just arguing facts, you're amplifying the most extreme version of them. That's why it sounds convincing at first, but falls apart when you actually look at the details.

According to you, the US threw everything they had at Iran, but you are yet to backup your claims with credible fact. If you like cry from now till Jericho Iran can't comfortably fight Isreal let alone the almighty US of A.

A country that invaded your airspace, sniffed the life out of your supreme leader and military ranks like rats, and then closed your ports, is way bigger and stronger than you militarily. Hard pills are hard to swallow I know, but you must accept reality.

Way back then, that was how folks like you hyped Japan, until Hiroshima, and Nagasaki became a history lesson in chemistry classes.

educatedfool:
That video shows people forming a human chain. It doesn't prove they were forced or "used as shields." You're adding that conclusion yourself. People can and do voluntarily protest like that all over the world.

So let's be clear, there's a difference between civilians being used and civilians choosing to stand there. You're blurring that line to fit your narrative.

And on media bias, thanks for proving my point. If sources can have bias, then you can't just take one report and treat it as unquestionable fact when it suits you.

A country you called strong wouldn't allow her citizens to gather around a facility that is about to be nuked by an enemy country. What then is the use of their milliatry?

Talking about media bias and credibility, so I should should believe stories from a website whose domain was registered just 3 years ago, with no credible faces behinds its ownership, over credible news medias with verifiable faces behind them, and even have correspondence in various countries and their government houses? Nawa for the way some of una dey think oh!!.

A country occupied your airspace killed your most protected leader like a housefly, killed your milliatry ranks like common rats. Even your current supreme leader can't address u & Ur people for fear of being killed.

With all these, all you could do is throw missiles carelessly, and use armless humans as shields to protect your power infrastructures. What if same country reciprocated the gesture of throwing missiles at you carelessly?

Open mouth waa!!! say the ALMIGHTY US of A, the ODOGU of world milliatry might threw all they had at Iran
Lol!!! currently enjoying beating the dead horse, knowing fully well that I stand to gain nothing from it.

educatedfool:
You made the claim, so bring the evidence. Telling me to "go search" is just a way of dodging responsibility.

We've already seen how "confirmed" narratives can collapse. The Iraq war was justified with intelligence that later turned out to be "almost entirely wrong"
https://govfacts.org/policy-security/intelligence/the-white-house-iran-dossier-looks-a-lot-like-the-iraq-wmd-case/

So forgive me if I don't take your claim at face value without solid proof. Confidence is not evidence.

I can help you with data if you don't have any to watch the video.

As for govfacts
""
GovFacts presents itself as nonpartisan and educational, but its editorial framing indicates a Left-Center bias. While many explainers are straightforward summaries (e.g., “Can Government Oversight Fix Toxic Fumes on Planes?”), others contain subtle framing critical of Republican figures, particularly Donald Trump. For example, “Do Trump’s Tactics Echo McCarthyism?” and “How the Trump Administration Uses Courts as Policy Tool Against Universities, Media, and States” emphasize authoritarian parallels, executive overreach, and threats to civil society.

That's from mediabiasfactcheck.

You point to western media when the narratives suits you, but discredit same when it doesn't.

educatedfool:
You keep saying "human shields" like you were there watching it happen yourself, when in reality it's the same recycled narrative pushed by Western media every time they want to justify a side. The same media that told the world Iraq had weapons of mass destruction with full confidence, only for it to turn out false. The same media that has misreported conflicts over and over, then quietly walks it back when the truth comes out. But somehow this time you decided it must be 100 percent accurate. Convenient.

So no, people aren't being blinded by sentiment. Some of us just don't swallow everything we're told without questioning it. You hear one version and run with it like it's gospel.

And this idea that "everything was thrown at Iran" is just unrealistic. If everything was truly thrown at them, you wouldn't be here arguing about it like it's some debate topic, the outcome would be obvious. There's a reason things stop where they stop.

About your "most protected man" point, intelligence failures and assassinations happen everywhere, even in the most powerful countries in the world. That doesn't suddenly reduce a whole country to nothing. If that's your standard, then no country on earth is strong.
What's really ironic is you're calling others dishonest, but you're repeating narratives without questioning where they come from or how many times similar stories have been proven wrong. That's not honesty, that's just confidence without verification.

So you are the US defence minister for you to know US threw everything they had at Iran? Guy go search on your favourite news media and dispute my claims of Iran using humans as shield for protecting their power infrastructures from being bombed by the US. Why am I even wasting my time with you? Ur user name says it all, no need beating a dead horse.

educatedfool:
Russia doesn't need to go to Iran. That's the point you’re missing. Iran is not weak or waiting for rescue, it fights its own battles and has been doing that for years.

The same so called world powers you're hyping threw everything they had and still couldn't break it. Instead they started talking ceasefire when things got uncomfortable for them. That is not dominance, that is pressure they couldn't handle.

So no, nobody needs to go fight for Iran. Iran already proved it can stand on its own and push powerful countries to the point where they start looking for a way out

Not weak by using humans as shield? Are you people consoling yourselves, or being blinded by sentiments? US threw everything they had at Iran? Common man be realistic for once, remember the most protected man in Iran was killed like a common rat.
A country blocked all your ports with nothing going in or coming out and you could do little or nothing about it.

People like you are bad friends to keep, because you will never be honest in telling your friends their true strengths, weakness, good and bad habits.

How true is this please? Life can truly be so cruel, but mumsy hope you no shop one guy man clean mouth during your slaying days, wey karma cum carry the matter put for head?

Oga darkness, may nature handle your political ambition, just like how you handled Nigeria power sector as minister of power.

Kukuma title the post as Osimhen biography.

Na Osimhen biography you dey write, or Na the news of him owing Mercedes you dey write?

Make them out tire for him neck after extracting his confessional statements.

That police man is a prime suspect, even the boy was crying that he will take the police man to the owner of the parcel, yet he gunned him down.

Ogun kee u and Ur stubbornness there. So the buck no longer stops at the president's office Abi?

The Ogun wey wan Kee GOtv for not showing this match and PSG match of yesterday still dey do press up. If no be Airtel ODU I for miss both match.

How do these guys acquire all these weapons? I strongly suspect our security agencies are complicit.

Na Ur phone camera spoil the picture, or Na the real picture be that? Rare 3 bedroom house with swimming pool that looks like farm house. Ogbeni go borrow better phone, take snap better picture, u dey spoil market with this picture.

If EFCC dey do their job without corruption, Nigeria for dey beg for other nations to help us build new prisons by now.

You Nigeria fraudsters can be very dumb, imagine what your are posting on a public forum.

Apel147:

Mission accomplished after handling over to a known terrorist

If E pain you, use the nearest river okay?

I don vex dump my refrigerator and 1000VA
Stabilizers, since NEPA no gree reason band E for my area again.. One Band E with very low voltage that can't even power a giant OX fan properly, the refrigerator plugged to stabilizer freezes it's contents in at most 2 hours.

But on band A with very stable voltage of 180-220 that can power a 2HP inverter AC comfortably, but the refrigerator can't ice it's contents even after over 9 hours whether it is plugged in to a stabilizer or not. Can't be wasting units carelessly, so I abandoned both crabs.

Mission accomplished, withdrawal is expected, world power for a reason. But why spamming the thread mentioning mods all in a bid to make front page? childish I must say.

TRUMP POSTED IMAGES OF PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA AND HIS WIFE AS MONKEYS.

BECAUSE THEY ARE BLACK.

IN ISRAEL, THEY THREW AWAY THE BLOOD OF ETHIOPIAN JEW BLOOD DONORS FROM THEIR BLOOD BANKS.

BECAUSE THEY ARE BLACK.

LOOK IT UP.

YOU PEOPLE SUPPORTING THESE WHITE SUPREMACISTS ARE SO PATHETIC.

YOU'RE A COMPLETE DISGRACE.

Ogbeni sharap there, and stop spreading false propaganda, Isreal never threw away blood of Ethiopians donors because they were black. Although still harsh and totally unacceptable, the policy was a safety measure due to high HIV infection rates in the Ethiopian community at the time, not because of the color of their skin.

USA once rejected Haitians blood donations for same reason. Even Isreal rejected UK blood donarions during the outbreak of "the mad cow disease" in UK

Didn't you APC supporters and your TPain made mockery images of GEJ depicting a goat? Open wa dey cap rubbish.

MrPOTUS:
Baba Iran is the one blocking the strait. Charging fee for passage which is against international laws.

But you're here blaming the US

Once Iran stops it nonsense, the US will move away.

So the best way to cure madness is being mad too?

Jangbajantis:
So according to you, the US should politely leave the main pressure point open, then go knock gently on Iran’s ports and hope they cooperate? Interesting strategy.

The Strait of Hormuz is exactly where Iran gets much of its leverage. If someone keeps using one gate to threaten everyone passing through it, you don’t ignore the gate and go paint their backyard fence.

Yes, there are other options, and many have been used for years. But when stubbornness becomes policy, stronger pressure follows.

And relax with the “poo in my mouth” speech. Disagreeing with one strategy doesn’t make every action foolish. Sometimes the move you dislike is the one that actually removes the problem.

Are you telling me the US can't stop Iran from blocking the strait?

mayor1814:
US doesn't need the strait. US has many options. But since Iran Wana prove stubborn by blocking d strait, USA then decided to block entry and exit to Iran ports... Anoda chance for USA to flex his muscle as world power weda u hate USA or not he's d world dominant power.. So it's a matter who will bow first, now Iran economy is suffering and yet they are still stubborn, not ready to make a deal

Yes, US doesn't need the strait but other nations do. Are you telling me that the US don't have other alternatives to make Iran bow, instead of blocking the strait? Why not open the straits and focus more on block Iran's ports?

The US is and will remain the world power at least for the foreseeable future no doubt about that. I'm a firm US supporter but being ur supporter doesn't translate to you pooing in my mouth while I swallow it and continue shouting ride on sir your poo is very delicious.

Omoh there are levels to everything true, true oh!! Ur leaders and military ranks are being killed like house flies, and even with your careless throw of missiles you still couldn't stain the suit of the man you claimed to have killed on over 4 occasions now.

But here you are trolling and mocking same man who him by himself announced to the world that he has cancer, which fortunately was detected early.

Your own supreme leader can't even address his your fellow country men for fear of being killed like a common rat just like his father by thesame man you are mocking. Level truly pass leve

I don't support the US blockade of the straits, because it is obvious that they tend to gain heavily from it at the detriment of other countries. The straits is not used by only Iran. Why can't the US open the straits and block Iran's ports?

Yemmysworld91:
You don't seem to understand me. I'm not saying countries don't subsidize things for their citizens. Subsidy is normal. Even the UK subsidizes food and that's why irrespective of the inflation, food prices doesn't rice again. Let me ask you my question directly below. You just listed countries with the various subsidies. Egypt made it three times but it's clearly stated that it's a managed exchange rate, especially during crises. Do you understand yourself

Let me add that, I believe the Tinubu government should currently be subsidizing fuel for the populace to the current crises in Iran. Some countries did for this period

Note that countries subsidizes based in essentials and how it's convenient for the economy. It's not sustainable for the country's economic to continue to subsidize the three.
I ask again


Mention countries in the world that subsidizes fuel, electricity and fx exchange rate at the same time?

Yes, fuel subsidy is unsustainable in the long term, but shouldn’t a wise leader plan its removal and put measures in place to reduce the negative impact before implementing it?

On your first day of inauguration you hold microphone open mouth WA "subsidy is gone", but your predecessor removed same subsidy and fuel wasn't even up to ₦100 per litre then, but yet you protested and called it scam.
