The question is why didn't Arabs clamour for a Palestinian state when west bank and Gaza were under Jordan and Egypt? The origin of this Palestinian cause is hatred for Jews simpliciter. No Palestinian state ever existed

Incidentally, Judea and Samaria (the so-called West Bank) was captured and occupied by Jordan in 1948 during the Arab-Israeli war until 1967 when Israel recaptured the place.
The Jews were short-changed for long and had to compromise a lot because they were small in population and did not have military power.
Very curious that their homeland which they recaptured from Jordan is now being termed '' occupied Palestine''. Propaganda at its best.

HacheNoire:
Her name and bravery with be engraved in the gold plaques of history.

The list of those that stood up against imperialism, colonization, genocide and stealing.

She never died. Her blood with germinate the next seeds that will stand up for freedom.

Wherever she is, she is definitely happy. People already crying on live TV.

Keep on doing the good job.
But there should be no cry of ''genocide'', ''genocide'' when the heat becomes unbearable

SonofElElyonRet:
See
Philistines didn't occupy the whole of the land. There were other nations. Read exodus, numbers Deuteronomy etc.. Gaza yes.. certainly not the whole place.. the Romans renamed the whole territory hitherto called Judea into Palestine to spite the Jews for their AD 70 revolt

The demand that ancient city of Jerusalem (East Jerusalem, where David/Solomon's Temple is sited) be reserved as capital is even very curious.

Niyijac:
Brandolini's Law states that "The amount of energy needed to refute buls*!t is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it"

You have some strongly held opinions about these issues, it wouldn't hurt to get this update.

Don't put the burden on us.

Which one be Brandolini's Law again, nitori olorun?
I did not put any burden on you: I only said you have not said anything.

We are still buying financial institutions across Africa 🌍

They should not be buying market (subsidiaries) everywhere and forget the shareholder at home.
Their corporate release few days ago says directors have approved dividend, but subject to CBN approval. I hope it is not scoping

Niyijac:
It would be a good idea to update your knowledge rather than double down.

You have not said anything!
Although I don't claim to be an expert on the topic

Niyijac:
Iran is not an Arab nation.

That was long before now according to history. But now, they have been ''Arabized'' to a large extent. They speak their local languages, especially Farsi and Arabic

megawealth01:
Some stocks bullishness isn't by dividends' payments

I just hope Access Bank would pay something reasonable, especially since they did not pay interim dividend

Valthegreat:
You support Tinubu with the same kind of strength (prayer) here even when someone like me who have lived in Northern Nigeria before still wonders how the poor peasant farmers there who struggled during prosperity (Jonathan) are surviving the hyper inflation (Tinubu).
So we all support evil sometimes but in different ways and manners, that's very unfortunate though.

Na wa woo
This serious ooo.
I understand how you feel, bro.
But war is very bad so let's avoid wishing or benefitting from it in any form.

ositadima1:
Iran has struck Saudi Aramco facility, the war appears to be spiraling out of control. Dangote might also see heavy cash flows as markets react.

Iran should watch how it attacks fellow Arab nations so it does not lose their support and sympathy because that would be a big mistake.
We hope the possible rise in fuel price would not cascade down to affect our pump price in Nigeria too?

InvestorHalal:
Aameen. Thank you.

Are you the one?
You're forgiven, don't worry.
But don't do it again, because I know you are a good guy.

Ginalex:
NAHCO will explain why they're still hoarding their corporate release.

Na by force? This is serious oo

Truthissupreme:
Just like you have been striking Hezbollah forever and you never fit eliminate them

Or is it the hamas that is still ruling in Gaza after your three years of "strikes" with USA support against a rag tag group

No be to strike, na the will of these groups to continue to insist they won't be bullied to disharm whether nuclear or their fire arms

So where are the leaders of Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthi etc. and even the so called supreme leader of Iran?
Hope you and your people would not start shouting ''genocide'', ''genocide''.

megawealth01:
My counsel has always been for respected people here to avoid religious talks because it generates emotions...

Nothing dey make me go religious talks with people. I always avoid religious discussions... Na money I dey find ooooo

MONEY no get RELIGION 😔

Thanks for the advice.
I did not even attack anything. It was just a simple, harmless reference to a verse without any bad or derogatory intention.
There are many Muslim Israelis and Christian Palestinians.

Wishing all Muslims on NSEMPA Ramadan Kareem.
Someone called me ''ode'', which is not halal in this period; but may Allah forgive him.

crownprince2017:
I'm not here for religion arguments, I'm here to make money..pls don't quote qurian, u know nothing about it, you may underestimate the language used in writing qurian but not the original meaning, its not a story book, the reasons you see people spending alot of years studying it and still pray for more understanding from God.

Respect yourself, many are seeing u but not cautioning you now but when I come for you full scale now they will now start blaming me.

Pls respect yourself and stop talking about others religion.

Focus on yours only.

Every Holy Book of God should belong to all mankind so we can learn from it by making reference, for wisdom, guidance, teaching, worshipping, salvation, as way of life etc.
I don't have a problem if someone refers to any Holy Book of God because I am not the owner or author. God is.
And God is never angry about it.

edwardaigb:
na so he go shout and make the thing to dey go back.

The thing don dey go back sef

crownprince2017:
Pls don't quote qurian, it's not your religion, you have no expertise in this area.

Respect yourself and focus on your argument, qurian is not a story book you can quote any how...respect yourself.

Please go and read Quran Chapter 5 vs 20-21.
And tell us what you find written there.

Maybe someone would also tell us that Moses was not an Israeli or Jew, but ''Palestinian''.
We are waiting patiently.

Cherrybae:
Propaganda upon Propaganda. Show us video or keep quiet.

Iran already dealing with the USA and even Israel.

This is just to cover face. Iran will level America to dust latest midnight today.

Americans are fleeing to nearby countries for fear.

Keep deceiving yourself

Iran and Israel do not share borders, so the only way to win is to dominate the air.
Iran cannot fly a single warplane, because Israel has destroyed their air navigation systems
Iran cannot detect or shoot down a single Israeli warplane
Israel flew 200 warplanes into Iran and attacked everywhere in Iran without losing a single plane.
How can Iran win this war? Sending missiles over a long distance cannot be as devastating as warplanesflying into your skies and unleashing heavy bombs from relatively closer range.
Mind you, Israel also has the missiles, but they are using the warplanes which are more cost effective and can fly multiple times to hit different targets

Harddiskng:
War will favor me and my family

Ha! Na woo
Why not just pray and hope for favours without mentioning ''war''

PETERiCHY:
We got into OANDO last week and it got into full bid today, Do YOU THINK IT'S A COINCIDENCE

Just be consistent, because folks are beginning to question your picks nowadays.

PETERiCHY:
OANDO ON FULL BID!!!!!!!!

BARGAIN HUNTERS TAKE NOTE

Please let Oando breathe.
We the faithful ones have been patient without any noise

ositadima1:
Lol, I’ve already answered you. Those biblical places and people are not the same as the Jews living there today. Many of them are not even direct descendants, similar to how white South Africans are not indigenous to South Africa.

But let me ask you this: would the core Yoruba states in Nigeria accept it if a group of Igbos, not even purely Igbo, but Igbos from outside Nigeria who have intermarried and have little direct connection, began to argue that, according to an ancient book, Kwara was their ancestral land? Do you think that kind of conflict would be resolved easily today?

Well, the descendants of the place know themselves, they are alive speaking for themselves, keeping their culture, their language, their history, their religion. Over to you if you think you know better than them and can tell them where they came from.

If the group of Igbos are able to give history of their family connections, lineage, history, ancestral journey, etc. and the different family compounds, people, chiefs and authorities of Kwara are convinced and accept them as true descendants of Kwara, so be it.
It will be reckless and irresponsible for an entirely different tribe e.g. Calabar people to wake up one day and attempt to drive them away from the land in Kwara because those Igbos had already been accepted and integrated as citizens of Kwara and they are living in the land that belongs to Kwara.

You must be really young

You dey eye that beautifyl lady, abi? This early morning.!
Agba; Agba; Agba!!!...how many times did I call your name?

ositadima1:
Again, you need to properly acquaint yourself with what is going on. This conflict is older than you; it didn’t start today. You have to go back to the 1940s, when the present-day Israelis were allocated land after the Second World War. Before that, there was no country called Israel. Britain and the United States, as major powers after the war, supported the creation of the state of Israel, partly referencing biblical claims that Jerusalem was a Jewish city. At the time, however, the land was largely populated by Arabs and Palestinians.

Initially, there were proposals and agreements involving Arab leaders, but conflict escalated as Israel expanded beyond the land allocated under early plans, with strong backing from the United States. From there, the broader conflict developed into what we see today.

It’s also important to understand that modern Israelis come from diverse backgrounds. Many Jewish people who migrated to the region were from Europe origins and other parts of the world, not solely from the ancient communities described in biblical narratives.

This is only a brief summary. You should take time to study the history in depth and examine multiple credible sources before forming firm conclusions.

So to you, history of the place only starts from 1940s?
If the kingdoms or places e.g. Jerusalem, Hebron, Shiloh etc. were established and formed thousands of years before 1940, then why do you start the history from 1940s? Is it for convenience or running away from historical truth and facts?
Ask yourself if Kings like David, Solomon, Hezekiah etc. who ruled over the same land in contention did so in the 1940s or 1950s or 1967.

Every country/State is formed on its land. The land of Egypt existed, so the land of Jordan, land of Lebanon etc and they all had their State or independence at different times. Egypt did in 1922 (I guess), so the fact that Israel had their State or independence in 1948 does not mean there was no land of Israel and its history before 1940s

ositadima1:
That’s exactly why you shouldn’t form strong opinions until you’ve seen the full picture. I’ve been following Al Jazeera’s podcast almost daily. Almost every day, they report at least five civilians killed, mostly women and children. They’ve reported journalists being killed, members of the WHO affected, and even people lined up to collect food and water.

I can’t do the research for you, and I can’t convince you of anything. Only you can decide to seek the truth when you’re ready.

Do you know whose interests Al Jazeera serves?

Nobody should start a war! If you do, what it brings is not good at all!

Oasisblue:
Your victim-blaming is very stupid and insensitive. When did this election you talked about take place? Over 18 years ago. Is that what you are using to judge their annihilation that took place recently? If you are subjected to the humiliation of military occupation and the indignity of being kept in an open-air prison with the IDF on one side and armed HAMAS on the left, what would your choices be?

Would you people stop these nauseating lies? Who is ''occupying'' where?
Does Jerusalem, Hebron, Beersheba, Shiloh, Bethlehem etc. belong to Arabs? Do you know the history of the place you claim to be under ''military occupation''?
Would you say the people of Plateau and Benue who have now fled their ancestral land and gone into exile because of attacks and killings by bandits and terrorists should forget about their ancestral land forever and they no longer have the right to return to where their ancestors had lived for more than 3,000 years before the crises started? When these victims recover in the future, build a strong army and they come back to reclaim their ancestral land, then you start shouting ''military occupation''
What kind of thinking is this?
