Nothing is going to happen!

Even when Israel sunk USS Liberty that killed 34, nothing happened.

That’s the only state allowed to kill Americans without repercussions.
The United Kingdom will not tolerate their citizens being killed.

Israel needs to back off from these incessant killings.

It's becoming too much and reckless, intentionally targeting vulnerable people is not the way to go.
They won’t back down until they are confronted by a power strong enough to stop them, in this case, Iran. Like a playground bully, Israel keeps pushing until someone bigger forces them to face consequences. Their actions only reinforce Middle East fears: Israel’s behavior makes it difficult to trust them in regional diplomacy or security matters.

I don't even know what to say because many Americans never support Israel on while many support them. Let's wait for Mr Trump to debunk this because he's one of those that support them.
Israel is only attacking weak and harmless Muslim nations if not why do they stop their attack on Iran? Even when we all know they have link history with Terrorists more than any other Islamic states in that region. But Qatar a peaceful state can be attacked
What we’re witnessing isn’t accidental: it’s tactical escalation. By striking soft targets and ratcheting tensions, Israel risks provoking a larger intervention that conveniently advances its strategic aims. They have been careful not to touch Iran directly , a sign they understand how quickly a regional war could spin out of control. At home and online, coordinated influence operations amplify fear and disinformation, warping public perception and undermining any chance of sober debate. This pattern demands scrutiny: who benefits from escalation, and why are civilian lives being treated like instruments of strategy?

one reason I know that many Nigerians are very very wicked even when they call themselves Christians is the way many of them are supporting these massacres. They will condemn boko haram for killing, but if the killers are from Isreal, there people support them whole heartedly and even pray for them. If you think you will make heaven when you die despite being unjust, not that the gates of hell will prevail against you. That is one thing I can guarantee to all evil people

I doubt the people cheering on these massacres are genuine Christians. Many are paid mercenaries who sit online pushing propaganda worldwide. Israel has built an “internet army” that infiltrates forums like Nairaland, registering with Igbo and Yoruba names to stir division among Nigerians. Some even use tools like ChatGPT to mimic a Nigerian voice.

Despite a negotiated ceasefire in Lebanon, they continue killing civilians, including children and American citizens.

This represents unprecedented terrorism on a global scale. Targeting and killing Americans is an absolute red line, no matter where it happens.

Foreign AffairsFour US Citizens, Including 3 Children Killed By Israeli Air Strike In Lebanon by malali(op): 2:14am On Sep 22, 2025
Four US citizens, including three children, were among five people killed Sunday by an Israeli air strike on southern Lebanon, according to the Lebanese government.

Israel’s military said it had “struck and eliminated” a Hezbollah operator in the southern town of Bint Jbeil, but acknowledged that “several uninvolved civilians” were also killed in the strike.

“The IDF regrets any harm to uninvolved individuals and operates to minimize harm as much as possible. The incident is under review,” it said in a statement.

Among those killed were a father and three of his children, who were US citizens, according to Lebanon’s Speaker of the Parliament, Nabih Berri, in a statement mourning their deaths.

Lebanese Foreign Minister Youssef Raji said the mother of the American family was injured in the Israeli attack and is in a critical condition.

CNN has approached the US State Department for comment.

Lebanese state-run NNA news reported that a drone had fired two missiles at a motorcycle and a Mercedes car. In the car, the father and his children were killed. The motorcyclist, the apparent target of the strike, was also killed.

Lebanon’s Prime Minister Nawaf Salam described the attack as a “massacre” against civilians, adding that the Israeli strike constituted a “message of intimidation targeting our people returning to their villages in the south.”

He urged the international community to condemn Israel “in the strongest terms for its repeated violations of international resolutions and international law.”

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) said it was “shocked and outraged by the killing of three children from the same family in an airstrike in South Lebanon,” in a post on X on Sunday.


“Attacks on children are unconscionable,” UNICEF added.

“No child should ever pay the price of conflict with their life. Hostilities must cease immediately to ensure the protection of every child,” it said.

Israel has continued to carry out strikes in Lebanon despite the US-brokered ceasefire agreement between Israel and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah in November last year.

Lebanon’s President Joseph Aoun, who’s in New York to attend the UN General Assembly, said Israel is “persisting in its continuous violations of international resolutions, foremost among them the ceasefire agreement,” in reaction to the attack.

“From New York, we appeal to the international community, whose leaders are present in the halls of the United Nations, to make every effort to put an end to the violations of international resolutions,” Aoun said in a statement on Sunday. “There can be no peace over the blood of our children,” he added.

Sunday’s attack comes after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s earlier remarks in a cabinet meeting regarding Israel’s “victories in Lebanon against Hezbollah” that have allowed for peace talks with its northern neighbor, Syria.

Keir Starmer did it—and against all odds, I am genuinely proud of him.

Despite his VP being ousted over a blackmail leak, his U.S. ambassador removed under similar circumstances, and widespread protests targeting his government, with Elon Musk even telling protesters to remove Starmer, he stood firm.


With conscience and courage, and a determination to stand on the right side of history, Starmer officially announced the recognition of Palestine.

Make no mistake: this bold move will invite sabotage. The UK—and any other country following suit, can expect coordinated attacks, false-flag operations, and manufactured “terrorist incidents” blamed on Muslims, all designed to inflame Islamophobia and distract from the truth.


History will remember leaders who acted with integrity. And Starmer, against a storm of pressure and manipulation, has chosen to act.
Foreign AffairsThe Theater Of Lies: Who Really Benefits From The Flames In Palestine? by malali(op): 9:48pm On Sep 21, 2025
As the United Kingdom, Canada, and other global powers formally recognize Palestine, a storm of dirty tricks is already bubbling beneath the surface. Brace yourself: false-flag terror attacks, staged and meticulously blamed on Muslims, are not a “maybe.” They are an inevitability, calculated, orchestrated, and packaged to inflame Islamophobia, distract from occupation crimes, and manipulate the global narrative.

We all know the puppet masters. The ones who profit politically, financially, and geopolitically from perpetual chaos in the Middle East. Every explosion, every manufactured headline, every viral video of “suspected terrorists” is not a coincidence, it is a weaponized story designed to deflect outrage, confuse the international community, and intimidate those daring to stand on the side of justice.

Meanwhile, the world watches, weary yet unbowed. The collective moral compass of nations will not be held hostage by propaganda. [/b]Regardless of which political ox is gored, regardless of who’s whining in corner offices over lost influence, genocide cannot be ignored. [b]The blood of innocents is not a bargaining chip. It is a call to expose the architects of deceit, dismantle the theater, and hold the real perpetrators accountable.

Let us be clear: every staged crisis, every spin of “terror threat,” every carefully crafted narrative of fear is a test of global conscience. And the world is learning, slowly but surely, that truth cannot be silenced by smoke, mirrors, or cynical manipulation.

History is watching. And justice, real, unflinching justice,will eventually write its ledger.

TravelTrump Said To Impose $100K Fee On H-1B Visas by malali(op): 9:01pm On Sep 19, 2025
U.S. President Donald Trump plans to introduce a new $100,000 application fee for H-1B worker visas, according to a White House official, in an effort to reduce their use as part of his broader immigration crackdown.

The Republican president was expected to sign a proclamation as early as Friday restricting entry under the H-1B visa program unless the application fee is paid, the official said. Trump also planned to order changes to the prevailing-wage levels for the H-1B program as a way to limit their use.


The H-1B program has become critical for technology and staffing companies who rely on foreign workers to fill a variety of technical roles.
Amazon (AMZN.O), opens new tab had over 10,000 H-1B visas approved in 2025, while Microsoft (MSFT.O), opens new tab and Meta Platforms (META.O), opens new tab had over 5,000 H-1B visa approvals each, according to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
Bloomberg News earlier reported Trump's intention to sign the order regarding H-1B visa applications.


Shares of Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp (CTSH.O), opens new tab, an IT services company that relies extensively on H-1B visa holders, fell over 5% on Friday.
Critics of the visas, including many American technology workers, argue companies use H-1B visa workers to suppress wages and pass over Americans for jobs they may otherwise be qualified for.
India was the largest beneficiary of H-1B visas last year, accounting for 71% of approved beneficiaries, while China was a distant second at 11.7%, according to government data.
The H-1B visa program is reserved for people who are employed in specialty occupations, frequently in the technology field. They can include software engineers, tech program managers and other IT professionals. The H-1B visas are approved for a period of three to six years.

PoliticsRegulator To Take Over Oil Contracts In Nigeria by malali(op): 5:58pm On Sep 19, 2025
Nigeria is considering stripping its state oil company of its decisive role in managing existing oil contracts and transferring that authority to the upstream regulator, in what could be the most significant shake-up since the 2021 Petroleum Industry Act (PIA).

Under the proposal, contracts currently controlled by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) would move to the Nigeria Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC). Lawmakers say the shift is aimed at plugging “statutory leakages and opaque deductions” that have drained government coffers for decades.

It’s a bold step in a sector where mistrust runs deep. The PIA was supposed to settle the blurred lines between regulator and operator, but critics argue that NNPC’s hybrid role as both commercial player and contract gatekeeper left too much room for manipulation. By putting NUPRC in charge, Abuja hopes to clean up revenue flows and boost badly needed income for the cash-strapped state.


But the risks are obvious. If NUPRC takes on contract control while retaining its watchdog role, it could end up judge and jury over the very agreements it regulates, a conflict of interest that may spook investors. Legal fights over existing contracts are also a possibility, with international partners wary of changes to hard-won terms.

Nigeria’s oil sector can ill afford more uncertainty. Output has been hobbled by theft, pipeline sabotage, and underinvestment, leaving Africa’s top producer pumping well below its OPEC quota. Meanwhile, domestic refining is only just beginning to recover with the Warri restart and the Dangote refinery ramp-up, after years of costly fuel imports.

For now, the proposal signals Abuja’s desperation to squeeze more from oil, its chief revenue lifeline. Whether it delivers reform or simply shifts the opacity from one institution to another will depend on how much independence, and transparency, the government is willing to grant its regulator.

Foreign AffairsRe: Barrack Obama Reacts To The Removal Of Jimmy Kimmel's Show by malali:
Charlie Kirk built a brand on saying the most outrageous, provocative things when he was alive, things that many considered vile, divisive, and outright corrosive. But now in his death, we see a strange twist: the U.S. government and corporate America punishing people for speaking openly about him. Workers are being fired, people are being silenced, all for voicing opinions about a man who never held his tongue.

This is the same America that parades itself as the global preacher of freedom , lecturing other nations about liberty and free speech. Yet, when it comes to home turf, the First Amendment is being mocked in real time. The hypocrisy couldn’t be clearer.


The difference today is that social media has blown the doors wide open. What used to be whispered behind closed doors, kept in check by newspapers owned by the puppet masters , is now on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook for the world to see. The mask of hypocrisy slips daily
.

Charlie Kirk was a provocateur, nothing less. He thrived on his platform, said venomous things, and enjoyed the spotlight for it. The U.S. government cannot turn around and muzzle people who are saying equally sharp things about him now that he is gone.


Think back: when Sani Abacha died, Western headlines dripped with mockery. When Gaddafi fell, newspapers danced on his grave. Freedom of speech wasn’t repressed then, so why now?

There’s an African proverb that says: “The dance someone does in the marketplace and gets sprayed with money, another who copies it may be flogged and called a madman.” Kirk copied Trump’s market-dance of provocation, assuming he’d reap applause. But in the end, the dance cost him.

And perhaps Trump himself is pushing the clampdown, because deep down he fears the same spectacle awaiting him when his own time comes.

Sitting U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders has called the situation a genocide.

Finally, some American leaders are speaking the truth. Even one of the most powerful Jewish senators has acknowledged it as such.

The U.S. must act decisively, lest it be seen as condoning an ongoing genocide in Palestine. The world is watching closely.

The United States is quick to condemn unrest or atrocities in countries like Sudan, Ethiopia, and Somalia, yet the same principles must now apply here. It’s time for consistency in justice and accountability.
Foreign AffairsSenator Bernie Sanders Calls War In Gaza A ‘Genocide’ For The First Time by malali(op): 9:15am On Sep 18, 2025
“The truth is, whether you call it genocide or ethnic cleansing or mass atrocities or war crimes, the path forward is clear. We, as Americans, must end our complicity in the slaughter of the Palestinian people,” the Vermont Independent wrote.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Wednesday said that Israel’s actions in Gaza constitute a genocide, the first time the longtime senator and two-time presidential candidate has used the term to describe the conflict.

“I recognize that many people may disagree with this conclusion,” Sanders said in an op-ed posted to his website with the title: “It is Genocide.” “The truth is, whether you call it genocide or ethnic cleansing or mass atrocities or war crimes, the path forward is clear. We, as Americans, must end our complicity in the slaughter of the Palestinian people.

Sanders’ call to action came shortly after Israeli forces launched a ground offensive in Gaza City, the enclave’s largest city. Just last week, a surprise Israeli strike on Hamas officials in Qatar drew the ire of the White House, with President Donald Trump slamming the unilateral maneuver in a social media post.

Sanders panned the Trump administration for its support of what he called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s “policy of ethnic cleansing in Gaza and the West Bank.”

“Having made life unlivable through bombing and starvation, they are pushing for ‘voluntary’ migration of Palestinians to neighboring countries to make way for President Trump’s twisted vision of a ‘Riviera of the Middle East,’” Sanders wrote.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Sanders’ criticism.

The Vermont independent, one of ten Jewish senators, has long criticized Israel over its war against Hamas for its decimation on Palestinian civilians, which has claimed the lives of some 64,000 Palestinians.

In March 2024, months after the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack in southern Israel that triggered the conflict, Sanders called on then-President Joe Biden to stop doling out unconditional military aid for the Middle Eastern ally, telling CBS that the “United States of America cannot be complicit in this mass slaughter of children.”

“Over the last two years, Israel has not simply defended itself against Hamas,” he wrote Wednesday. “Instead, it has waged an all-out war against the entire Palestinian people.”

Sanders has only escalated his pressure since the beginning of the war. He’s pushed several Senate resolutions to ban arms sales to Israel, culminating in a July vote that saw 26 Democrats support halting weapons transfers.

BusinessRe: United Capital Losses Six Staffs In Lagos Afriland Towers Inferno by malali: 8:45am On Sep 18, 2025
It’s tragic that negligence continues to put lives and property at risk. Measures must be taken to de-risk other buildings with similar hazards and prevent future incidents.

We have to acknowledge Africa’s heat and the growing reliance on renewable energy, especially lithium-based battery systems. Fires from lithium batteries are notoriously difficult to extinguish, so our firefighters must be trained specifically to handle these types of fires.


Any building with a large inverter room or significant battery storage should have:
• Emergency exits positioned away from the batteries, ensuring safe evacuation routes.
• Fire-retardant doors for the inverter room, designed to contain fires long enough for people to escape safely.

Proactive planning, proper training, and infrastructure adjustments are essential to minimize risk and protect lives.


Why Fires Happen:
• Overloading: Too many devices plugged in, drawing more current than the inverter/batteries can handle.
• Poor installation: Cheap cables, poor ventilation, batteries stacked improperly.
• Battery failure: Lead-acid batteries can leak or short; lithium-ion can overheat and catch fire.
• Dust / heat: Africa’s hot climates + dusty environments make thermal runaway and sparks more likely.
• Human error: Charging batteries while unattended, using low-quality inverters, mixing battery types, etc.


Fixes

• Proper ventilation: Heat dissipation is critical.
• Battery separation: Avoid stacking batteries too close.
• Fire suppression: Some buildings use CO₂ or dry chemical extinguishers.
• Regular maintenance: Check battery health, inverter wiring, and chargers.
• Quality equipment: Avoid cheap inverters and substandard battery brands.
