🚨🇺🇸🇨🇳🇻🇪 WHY VENEZUELA MATTERS: TRUMP’S MOVE MAY HAVE SHAKEN CHINA’S GLOBAL STRATEGY Trump’s action in Venezuela is not regional politics, it directly targets China’s most critical vulnerability: energy dependence. China buys 60-90% of Venezuelan oil and 85-90% of Iranian crude, together accounting for roughly 30-35% of its total oil imports. Another 35% of China’s oil comes from Middle Eastern suppliers vulnerable to U.S. pressure, giving Washington potential influence over up to 70% of China’s energy supply. Under those conditions, Beijing’s ability to launch a high-risk operation against Taiwan becomes severely constrained. This weakens China’s military planning in the Indo-Pacific and disrupts its long-term strategy to project power beyond Asia. It also forces China to squeeze Russia harder on oil prices, increasing the economic strain on Moscow’s war effort. The U.S. gains strategic breathing room globally, strengthening its ability to meet commitments in Europe and elsewhere. Meanwhile, China suffers a major setback in Latin America, a loss of leverage abroad, and a blow to Xi’s image of control and inevitability. A post-Maduro Venezuela could open access to years’ worth of information on corruption networks, covert financing, sanctions evasion, and foreign influence operations, not just regionally, but globally. That intelligence windfall may reshape how power is understood, exercised, and constrained in the years ahead. In short, Venezuela is not a side story. It is a pressure point in a global system defined by energy, leverage, and timing. If Trump’s move achieves even part of its strategic promise, historians may one day view it not as a regional intervention, but as a pivotal moment in the great power competition of the 21st century.

fuckingAyaya:  China and Russia will as usual only issue condemnation and press statements, they will do nothing to confront the United States military face to face despite them signing defense/military treaty with Iran, syria and Venezuela. Russia and China are the most useless military allies the world has ever seen.

United States has began moving military assets across the world towards the middle east for a major military operation against Iran . Currently Iran has been under nationwide protests for over a week now , with citizens demanding an end to the Islamic style government of Ayatollah Khameni and demanding a return to the Persian style of government similar to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Joradan, and Kuwait who still practice Monarchial style of government . Several US military planes have started arriving various US bases in Europe where they will be rerouted to the middle east in the coming days. https://x.com/WarMonitor3/status/2007688352980709587 https://x.com/WarMonitor3/status/2007752749476462858 https://x.com/War_Radar2/status/2007817216893604195

| Politics › Expect More US Airstrikes To Come On Terrorist Camps In Nigeria. by MadeInTokyo(op): 7:36am On Dec 30, 2025*. Modified: 3:05pm On Dec 30, 2025 |
He emphasised that the operation was only the beginning, stating, "This is just a first step. There are many more to come. And it was in coordination and cooperation with the Nigerian government.” More US Airstrikes To Come On Terrorist Camps In Nigeria, Says Congressman Riley Moore A United States Congressman, Rep Riley Moore, has dismissed claims that President Donald Trump’s military action against terrorists in Nigeria will lead to war, adding that more airstrikes are still expected. He insisted that the recent U.S. military strikes had brought hope and renewed security to vulnerable communities in Nigeria, particularly Christians. In a post on his X (formerly Twitter) account on Monday, December 29, 2025, Moore said, “President Trump is not trying to bring war to Nigeria, he's bringing peace and security to Nigeria and to the thousands of Christians who face horrific violence and death.” He added, “The strikes against ISIS on Christmas, in coordination with the Nigerian government, have given hope to the Christians in Nigeria.” Moore also spoke on the issue during an interview on Fox News’ Mornings with Maria, where he painted a grim picture of violence against Christians in Nigeria. According to him, "Christians have been getting slaughtered in Nigeria since 2009, estimating between 50,000 and 125,000.” He further claimed, "Christians killed this year alone are 7,000.” Describing what he said he witnessed firsthand, Moore stated, Underground, it is more dire than you could imagine, seeing this in person, meeting mothers who have lost all of their children, just murdered in front of them.” He also highlighted the scale of displacement in the country, noting that 600,000 alone, just in Benue State, are living in IDP refugee camps, adding that Benue is “a state of six million people, and nearly 90% of that state are Christians. "600,000 alone just in Benue State are living in IDP refugee camps. a state of six million people, and nesrly 90% of that state are Christians,” Moore said. Moore said the recent military action had boosted morale not only among Christians but across affected regions of Nigeria. "This strike has given hope to the Christian population in Nigeria, but also the people of Nigeria who have been under the ISIS-Boko Haram, and most importantly in the Middle Belt region, where we have Fulani Islamic militants who have been driving Christians out of their ancestral homes,” he said. He emphasised that the operation was only the beginning, stating, "This is just a first step. There are many more to come. And it was in coordination and cooperation with the Nigerian government.” The comments come as Trump had confirmed that American forces carried out a military attack against ISIS fighters operating in northwest Nigeria. Announcing the operation on his Truth Social platform on Thursday evening, Trump said, “Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS Terrorist Scum in Northwest Nigeria.” Trump claimed the targeted fighters had “targeted and viciously” killed “primarily, innocent Christians, at levels not seen for many years, and even Centuries!” He added, “I have previously warned these Terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was.” The United States Africa Command (AFRICOM) also confirmed the operation in a post on X, stating that the airstrike was carried out “at the request of Nigerian authorities” and had killed “multiple ISIS terrorists.” In a related post, US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth wrote, “Grateful for Nigerian government support & cooperation,” while also warning of “more to come,” without providing further details. AFRICOM, in a separate statement, said the strike occurred in “Sokoto state,” an apparent reference to Nigeria’s Sokoto State. The US military action came weeks after Trump said he had ordered the Pentagon to begin planning for potential military action in Nigeria following claims of Christian persecution in the country. Residents of Jabo village in Tambuwal Local Government Area of Sokoto State were thrown into panic on Christmas night after a loud explosion rocked the community, raising fears of a possible attack. Eyewitnesses said the incident occurred suddenly on Thursday night, when an object suspected to be an explosive allegedly fell into the village, triggering a frightening sound that sent residents scrambling for safety. Confirming the incident, a resident said the unexpected occurrence caused widespread fear, with many villagers initially believing they were under attack. https://saharareporters.com/2025/12/29/more-us-airstrikes-come-terrorist-camps-nigeria-says-congressman-riley-moore

| Politics › Nigerian Christians Kill Herdsmen So They're Also Killed; No Genocide: Gumi by MadeInTokyo(op): 2:40pm On Nov 21, 2025 |
Kaduna-based cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, has said that herdsmen are killing Christians in retaliation for attacks launched against them by Christian communities. Mr Gumi, a self-appointed advocate for bandits and killer herdsmen, made this claim in a post on his Facebook page on Thursday. “The Christians at ‘fault lines’ in war with herdsmen, do also attack and counterattack. They kill and they are also killed. We regret all loss of lives. Don’t talk of Tafawa Balewa, Yalwan Shandam, Kafanchan, Zangon Kataf, Kaduna crises, etc.,” Mr Gumi said. The cleric added, “There is no Christian genocide. I was in Kano, Lagos and Ibadan in the last two days. Christians are going about their business. They are in power, economy and security outfits.” The cleric warned against foreign intervention to combat insecurity. “The only option left is to utilise our national resources equitably to educate, develop and protect all Nigerians, herdsmen included. Any foreign military intervention would only worsen the precarious situation, as nobody can control these outlawed groups on both sides.” Recently, Mr Gumi claimed he was told that Christians were burying empty coffins and recording the process to stage Christian genocide. https://gazettengr.com/nigerian-christians-kill-herdsmen-so-theyre-also-killed-no-genocide-gumi/

They fulani jihadists want to over run and exterminate the remaining Christians and moderate Muslims living in the North before moving to the South. They are hell bent on conquering Nigeria in line with the demonic vision of Usman Dan Fodo. And they are continuously recruiting tens of thousands of their fulanis brothers from all over Africa into Nigeria to carry out this genocides Tinubu should just swallow his pride and grant United States and Russia go ahead to operate military bases across Nigeria to help tackle this fulani jihadists terrorists. This war is far bigger than the Tinubu government and the Nigerian military. Nigerian military has lost the battle against terrorism and will never win because it has been compromised by the fulanis 5th columnists who are every where in t the Nigerian government. It's time for an international military force to be deployed to Nigeria to tackle this fulani jihadists. Our Nigerian military has inevitably lost the battle against terrorism since fulani personnel in the army have chosen to fulfill their vision of conquering Nigeria for fulani ethnicity rather. than serve and fight for Nigeria. . The ethnic genocide that led to war in Rwanda , and Liberia is already looking in Nigeria, and only deployment of an uncompromised international military force will avert this war since the Nigerian military is now helpless |

This comes a few hours after the abduction of students and staff from St. Mary’s School, Papiri, Agwara Local Government Area. We had earlier reported that the Catholic Diocese of Kotangora had confirmed the attack, which happened between 1:am to 3:am, sending panic within the school community.
