🇮🇱🇪🇬🇵🇸 Egyptian sources to Sky News: Israel requests the mediation of Egypt and Qatar to conclude a new prisoner exchange deal within the framework of a humanitarian truce in Gaza. Dem don start begging

When Israel was itching to go back to fighting during the closing stages of the ceasefire, I was thinking perhaps they had monitored or had info on where the Israeli prisoners were.

The only one they seemed to have intelligence on turned out to be a trap where special forces members were injured and the prisoner killed.

⚡Israeli soldier takes official approval from the competent authorities in the IDF to blow up an entire building in Gaza in order to give it as a "birthday gift" to his two-year-old daughter.

"This bombing is a gift to my daughter, Princess Ella, who is two years old."

This terrorist was liquidated yesterday by Hamas.

Should be in hell by now

Ottoman lost many wars to Russia empire even when UK and France supported Ottoman Empire against the Russia empire.

Russia empire won against Ottoman empire gave balkan region independent from Ottoman rules, reason Bulgaria and co still love Russia, because over 500K Russian troops fight for Balkan region independent from Ottoman Empire

I'm talking about Turkey and not the Ottoman empire.

They've only fought against France, Greece, Armenia, Cyprus since their founding. The rest have been somewhat of a civil war or as part of a coalition.

⚡Vladimir Putin in Abu Dhabi: camels, cavalry escort, flags along the road, and the tricolor in the sky. The colors of the Russian flag were sprayed in the sky by fighter jets when the Russian leader arrived at the palace of the UAE President.

⚡Turkish President Erdogan says Israel would pay a big price if it targets Hamas officials in Türkiye:

If they dare to take such a step against Türkiye, against the Turks, they will be condemned to pay the price for it, never to be able to straighten their backs again.

There is no one in the world who does not know how far Türkiye has come both in intelligence and security. No one should forget this.

Unlike some great paper kingdom/empire without a successor city or state, I understand Turkey as a successor state of the Ottoman empire has never lost a war.

I have not witnessed a direct conflict because they always seem to fight as part of a coalition nowadays. With the way Erdogan talks and throws threats here and there, It is really my wish to see how Turkey fights. I want to know if they are as good as they seem to think.

All these patriarchy lord in Nigeria abeg avoid abroad. The wife was a nurse and likely the main applicant. While he is on dependent visa. After the restraining order she would have divorced or be in the process. The guy would have lost his dependency status in UK. So he killed her . 😭

According to somewhat reliable sources I have seen, the case is "reportedly" as follows;

- Man and wife have been married for 16 years.
- The man sponsored the wife education and training as a nurse in a private school in Nigeria.
- They decided to relocate to the UK this year with wife getting a job as the principal applicant.
- Marriage broke down few months after relocating to the UK allegedly due to accusations of extra-marital affairs by the man on the woman.
- Wife is in custody of the kids as expected.
- The wife allegedly starts bringing the boyfriend to the house.
- Man gets angry at everything, including losing his wife and kids, and possibly resident status in the UK.
- Man makes threats.
- Wife files for restraining order against man due to threat to life.
- Man makes his threats real.

*Please know the meaning of allegedly. That it was alleged doesn't always mean it's true.

No one except the man knows the trigger. I do not support his actions. Maybe he got played, but that's how life is. The game is the game. Men and women cheat. Divorce them if you have to but no one deserves to die for that. If it's about the kids, he should have been patient. The first child would have become an adult in less than 3 years.

I personally do not trust anyone enough to the extent of becoming a dependent for 5 years (it's no different from being an indentured servant). The man should have done his homework before moving.

One thing I hate about justice in the UK is that he will get off easily compared to elsewhere. Will most likely be sentenced to life in prison but released in less than 20 years due to the crime falling short of a whole life order.

Show us your own map that shows Oyo empire and can be backed by historical fact and figures

There is no need for useless maps. Dwelling on the past will be useless to me. To think I want to even start the comparison of a very tiny kingdom the size of Ibadan (if we can call it a kingdom sef) Oyo was greater than military and economically.

Oyo's power can be seen in several successful cities across 3 countries still existing today. From Porto Novo and Ketou (both in Benin republic), Ibadan, Iwo , Abeokuta, Osogbo , Ota, Offa ,Badagry, Ilaro, Ogbomosho, Illesa, Ijebu , Iwo, Gbongan, Saki, Iseyin, Ondo Atakampe(Togo) etc. Over 40 million people speak the language of the old Oyo empire across different countries.

Touted as a great kingdom, its language couldn't even survive outside of Edo state not to talk of influencing others. A supposedly great empire with no successor city or state (except we have to count Libya and Italy).

Most Nigerians think (Benin kingdom = Benin city).
They don't know that Benin city which was first referred to as Edda in earlier Precolonial maps is only the capital city of Benin kingdom which was a large precolonial country.

A very useless map. A map without the great Oyo empire. I'm certain the Oyo empire in the said 1747 controlled more land than the Benin empire.

I personally have no issues with the Oba of Benin. He is partly Yoruba himself by virtue of the first king we gave to the old Benin empire.

The Oba should focus more on developing Benin city to become a capital city they can be proud of considering their past greatness and not try to claim a more prosperous city belonging to his distant cousins. And if he is a hurry to start claiming cities, he should start with parts of Ekiti and Ondo states which were actually taken from the Benin empire by the Yorubas instead of a coastal city over 300km away from Benin city.

I didn't not know immigrants who settled in a very small neighbourhood (Isale-Eko) of the state can later claim to have founded the city-state. A very annoying claim that is disrespectful to someone like me whose both maternal grandparents and hence ancestors were both Aworis of Lagos origin. The Italians can as well claim to have founded New York City by just settling in the East Harlem neighborhood of Manhattan.

Everybody is just trying to claim this Lagos sha. I wonder what stops them from creating "a Lagos" in one of their native states.

I have been meaning to ask something. Please is Sportybet aviator top bets real or a ploy to get users to play more?

Yesterday someone was playing it beside me and I could see the top bettor was staking over 300k per round. For the 7 times it was played, the top bettor didn't cash out for once. I don't believe someone will be foolish enough to lose over 2m in less than 3 minutes.

⚡Hamas releases footage of the second hostage exchange with Israel.

This time, Hamas released 13 Israelis and 7 foreigners, and 39 people were transferred from the Israeli side.

The way Hamas structures still seem intact is a bit suspect.

Are you sure these guys, including Israeli prisoners are not already in Egypt?

Cancri:
IDF have freed one hostage already.

IDF misinformation and propaganda. She was "rescued" after Hamas released a video showing three female hostages criticising Israel’s PM Benjamin Netanyahu.

First IDF said Pvt Ori Megidish was "released". Later claimed it was a mistranslation issue and she was actually rescued. No further information has since been given on how she was rescued.

Second, On Israel's official list of Israeli prisoners held by Hamas, her name was not there.

Third, the supposedly kidnapped private made a Facebook post 5 days after her supposed kidnapping. The Facebook page has since gone private.

BTW,Hamas members must be really skilled in manicure

WriterNiiig:
⚡"Hamas has released 25 hostages: 13 Israelis and 12 Thai nationals"

Still the most outstanding feat of this conflict is how despite invading Gaza, a tiny strip of land, Israel and their allies have not been able to gain intelligence on the whereabouts of even a single prisoner.

⚡Supporters of Kiev regime in Odessa found a way to defeat Russia.

They plan to disconnect it from Europe by digging, with EU money, a water canal between the Baltic and the Black Sea. After that, Russia will be separated from Europe forever.

The map is funny to me . So they expect Belarus, a Russian Ally to donate its land for a water canal to alienate Russia and in doing so, make itself a Pariah in Europe. I'm not even considering the newly independent states of Russia.


Might work for Latvia and Estonia though.

The BBC is keeping up with its pro-israel mandate. They could not air the fact that Israel has been arbitrarily detaining and holding Palestinian children as hostages.

In announcing the ceasefire agreement that involves the release of 150 Palestinians, of whom the majority are women and children, the BBC called them "teenage boys" and "teenage males" in different reports.

Apartheid state. Following the teachings in Leviticus 25:45-46. Just that they are not buying them as slaves, just rather kidnapping them.

Another false accuser hoping to cashout.

If you're sexually abused as you claimed, why not file a criminal case so the accused can be punished by the state if found guilty. But no, madam decided to file a civil suit, counting on the hope that the actor would not want negative press even when innocent and decide to settle out of court.

First, Kogi is not the SouthWest.

Second, Iswap is basically an offshoot of Boko Haram.

Third, I think you misconstrue Southwest to mean Yorubas. Southwest is SouthWest. There are fanatics in Illorin and other parts of Kwara State which as far as I'm concerned is North Central Nigeria.

You are living in delusion. The two Nigerian guys who commited a terrorist attack in Britain were Yoruba.
Alqaida has a Yoruba branch, I've forgotten it's name, but it used to conduct many terrorist attacks during gej's mandate.
I see that your own angle is ethnocentrism. This is just an other form of extremism.

Correction; British of Nigerian descent. Both were born there, studied there, became extremists there. Never stepped foot in Western Nigeria to be imbibed in the culture, probably never even spoke the language. All of a sudden, you want us to claim them as ours

I have never never of any Al Qaeda branch in the SouthWest. Care to show any proof?

I don't know where you got the belief that I consider my culture superior. The only thing I said was I'm happy we don't have much religious extremists. We have extremists in other areas just not religious. And guess what, hundreds of other cultures across the world do not have religious extremists too including many in Nigeria.

Stoplying:
All these kinds of miscalculations are what lead to brutal wars. Not being extreme enough to conduct murders shouldn't be seen as being cowardly. Otherwise, you are just inviting people to conduct murder in order to show that "they have balls".

That's their problem. They can decide to start killing each other for religious reasons. I care less as long as they don't bring that shit into Southwest. Religious liberalism is enshrined in our culture in the Southwestern states as evidenced during the last election so I have nothing to fear for my people.

We'll be there to analyze and contribute to threads if and when the Muslim and Christian extremists decide to finally engage in a battle.

FoolishBoy419:
@bolded that's a fact.

I also believe the overall christian population don't have that wish, but most of the Nigerian Israeli fanatics online wouldn't think twice if they somehow got the power to do it. As you said, their brains are totally intoxicated.

Far more Nigerian christians are religious extremists. The only thing they teach in their churches nowadays is money and hatred for people of other religious denominations, including other Christian denominations. The only problem is that most of them are cowards. They just do not have the heart and ability to do what Muslim extremists can do.

Muslim extremists are brutal and extremely violent. I was almost lynched myself in Nasarawa State (which will obviously be my last visit to anything North of Nigeria). Christians on the other hands while being extremists either do not have the heart to leave their families, riches behind and die for an unknown god or fearful of the repercussions from Muslim extremists who will react in a more brutal way. That's why most of Christian extremism is either done online anonymously or in closed spaces.

I'm willing to bet my car on the fact that not even one of the extremists and "death to all muslims" on this thread and nairaland as a whole is bold enough to say them on a non-anonymous platform such as Facebook.

sainttwist1:
actions have consequences.
nobody what civilian death but what is happening in gaza part of the bad decisions from gaza people.
when Hamas attack Israel the people should know there will consequences and condemned the attack immediately but no, some of them even takes part in looting while majority of them were happy, sharing sweet or whatever on the street.
what is AK doing in hospital? the doctors/UN knew the consequence yet they allow hamas to use hospitals, schools etc as base.

I hope you all will keep the same energy when the Nigerian Army reacts to IPOB attacks by bombing civilians, hospitals, homes, universities and residential estates in retaliation. I remember Operation Python Dance conducted by the Nigerian Army in 2017 in Abia state. The Igbos were quick to start calling UN, AU, EU, ECOWAS, CNN, BBC, US, NNPC, USD, NYC and every other abbreviation known to mankind.

Now it's funny how people who know the dangers of collective punishment will support the killing of civilians because they belong to the wrong religion. We'll be here if and when the "Fulani Army" like y'all call it decide to commit a genocide and massacre in reaction to attacks by IPOB and Niger Delta Militants.

TrumpBiden:
Who's in control of northern gaza right now? 😁😁

You're even more foolish than imagined.

You want Hamas with less than 20k members to face an IDF army with over 500k members and an active Airforce. Lol.

Go and ask the British what happened during the Irish war of Independence when they invaded Ireland with over 50k soldiers with the IRA having less than 15k members. Of course, they destroyed and occupied Ireland but then the soldiers left to occupy Ireland were being picked off one after the other to the point that the British government started facing criticism at home and abroad due to the casualties.

Everyday the IDF is announcing the death of occupier terrorists and Gaza is fast becoming a graveyard for tanks whereas we have not seen the IDF capture any significant person or tunnel. Today they announced the deaths of at least two captains . That's two senior officers gone while engaging doctors and sick patients in an hospital and all they have to show for it is about 8 AK-47s

IDF commander brought CNN to show evidence of Hamas in a destroyed hospital. All he could show was an elevator shaft which the propagandist said was an Hamas tunnel, a supposed armory room with only about 5 AK-47 and that an Hamas commander lived there because of the presence of solar panels. Lol. Man was shutting down journalists from asking questions.
