Foreign AffairsRe: US Navy To Start Blockading All Ships On The Strait Of Hormuz - President Trump by MT: 8:30pm On Apr 12
Mattswaggz:
They produce a significant amount of oil and they have Venezuela to get from as well.....increases in price wouldn't be that much of a problem to Americans for now while Iran not being able to use the straits will also hurt Iran significantly.
I laugh when I read from individuals whom have no real life experience of what is happening in the states but display ignorance in such a brash manner😁😁

patrickcollins:
They don't fear but was begging their civilians to mobilize to their energy infrastructures, bridges, train stations and so many others as human shield, who does that, shooting missiles without able to defend your country is a miscalculations, the rich gulf states need to wake up build their city just like Israel. Israel is prepared for war more than any country, they have the best defense system, with shelters and sirens to alert about incoming dangers and interceptors to deal with the target
What are we saying , what were you saying?

Anyway, I wish you luck
Foreign AffairsRe: US Navy To Start Blockading All Ships On The Strait Of Hormuz - President Trump by MT: 7:04pm On Apr 12
Mattswaggz:
US has options but Iran doesn't....this move is a good move by the US....Iran didn't know they were revealing a good technique to the US when they were blocking the straits.
US has no option. Trump is in a confused state and he was looking for an off ramp to get out of the middle east.

Iran is down and fears no fall.

Inflation is brutally dealing with Americans and Trump has become an unpopular president. Americans get no chill, Trump knows what is coming in the mid term election.
Foreign AffairsRe: US Navy To Start Blockading All Ships On The Strait Of Hormuz - President Trump by MT: 4:10pm On Apr 12
Mattswaggz:
Meaning that if US and her allies won't benefit from the strait...Iran and her allies wouldn't as well.....Not a bad move actually.
When you start buying petrol for 2000 naira per litre, you will know it's a bad move.

US can't deny iran their inalienable right to nuclear weapons. Israel has , why can't Iran?
Which rule states Israel can have and Iran should not?. That's being unfair to.Iran.

Iran will not bulge in their demands and unfortunately Americans have short fuse, Trump will most possibly lose the mid term election and all his gra gra will be put to check. Iran will play the long game.
Foreign AffairsRe: US And Iran Fail To Reach Agreement In Pakistan by MT: 4:05pm On Apr 12
Fuckyoumod:
An irrational and insane Islamic terrorists/clerics like the Ayotallahs of Iran shouldn't have a nuclear weapon.
We are in the era of a rule-based world order. The NPT has countries as members which have vowed not to have nuclear weapon. Iran is one of those countries as things stand.

However, NPT allows withdrawal of member countries. If Iran withdraws from NPT today, she has a right to nuclear weapon like India and Pakistan.

So which rule are you relying upon apart from NPT rule that Iran should be denied their inalienable right to own nuclear weapons?
Foreign AffairsRe: US And Iran Fail To Reach Agreement In Pakistan by MT: 11:21am On Apr 12
Fuckyoumod:
Lol... Iran is clearly in pursuit of nuclear weapons. Else what's so hard to hand over their enriched uranium for peace to reign?

Israel must not go to sleep ooh, else Iran will strike one day with a nuclear weapon, Giving hundreds of nuclear weapons to Hezbollah houthis, Hamas and other terrorists to terrorize the world.
Should we be talking about disarmamemt of Israel nuclear weapon or denying Iran of their legitimate rights as a nation?

Just asking

cyberbro:
Yet one illiterate in Enugu or Lafia will tell you that he's educated and that God doesn't exist.

The Great Power that created this world, the animals, resources and even you as a human being, you think it's a joke?

It was when I started asking questions in my heart about this world and the purpose of creation, despite all the confusion in the world, that God gave me the answer through a preacher and today, I thank God for the wisdom.
I think the way people, pastors, imams practise religion as a business venture in Nigeria makes people doubt the existence of the supreme being.
PoliticsRe: Oyo APC Governorship Hopeful, Teslim Folarin Meets President Tinubu In Lagos by MT: 6:44pm On Apr 10
It is quite unfortunate that the political landscape in Oyo state is currently peopled by people with zero antecdents. Gone are the days when people who were truly worthy would be slugging it out. I looked across the political landscape and all I could see were opportunists across all the parties. They were no where to be found for the past 3 years plus, they have no real impact in Oyo State but right now, their posters and billboards are springing up at every corners.

This applies to all the political parties. Unfortunately, one of these individuals would be elected. So, what would you expect ? They will loot as usual. Such a shame.
Foreign AffairsRe: Iran Asks Youth To Make Human Shields Around Power Plants Ahead Of Trump Strike by MT: 9:53pm On Apr 07
UrVillageChief:
I stopped reading your jargons immediately I got to the bolded part. I was expecting something sensible but I obviously overrated you😂
What reasonable person puts his own children in harms way as a way to stop his attackers from attacking? In what universe is it done that way? Shey una no Dey reason at all before typing?
So if someone threatens to attack your house, the best way to stop such an attack is by surrounding the said house with your defenseless kids and pregnant wife to make the attacker feel sober or so you can scream to the world that the attacker killed defenseless kids if he went on with the attack?😂
I’m still shocked at how that made sense to you.
Amazing, this forum Dey muzz me always.
Common sense is in rarity.
Foreign AffairsRe: Iran Asks Youth To Make Human Shields Around Power Plants Ahead Of Trump Strike by MT: 1:08pm On Apr 07
UrVillageChief:
Unlawful order? So it’s lawful to use defenseless youths as shields?
They are lucky that they are dealing with lenient people (the US) because imagine trying this shit with a vicious country that doesn’t give a fk about human lives? Imagine trying this arrant nonsense with China, a country that has even placed a ban on Muslims, Ramadan and even the name Mohammad without giving any regards to their Arab Muslim friends and allies like Iran
Again, the US and Israeli people are too kind for my liking. If the US bombs them, trust me, the skies won’t fall. Also, since y’all claimed Iran is a regional power and are winning this war, why are they not facing the US and Israel head on like real, honorable men do instead of using all these blackmailing tactics? First, they held the whole world hostage by terrorizing the strait of Hormuz instead of facing the US directly and now, they are using their own citizens as human shields, an allegation we’ve been raising for ages but are that y’all always denied. Now, Iran is confirming it😂
I don't normally respond to opinion here but I will respond to yours as your submission was filled with bias.

One, for every action, there's a reaction. If Trump had not insisted on destroying the civilian infrastructure, would Iran had suggested his civilians (not exclusively youths as you stated) to form a human shield around them?

This is clearly a war crime and the US military is only allowed to obey and execute lawful order. The rule-based world order was majorly written by the US and it's the same US assaulting the world order.

You are sounding hypocritical when you mentioned that Iran holds the whole world to ransom via strait of Hormuz. Why did you ignore the fact that the US , a supposedly bastion of democracy, said openly that they wanted a regime change through kinetic military action. Does that even make sense to you? There is a reason this war is referred to as the war of choice globally.

Does it make sense to you that trump is destroying infrastructure for the same Iranians he claims to be protecting. Which sane president vows to openly take out a whole nation off the map through military action, thus causing genocide.? How is he different from Hitler?

We might be dealing with a president with faulty cognition here. Lawmakers are already talking about invoking the 25th amendment here for his removal from the office .

Unprovoked? You think you're talking to children here?

You are very funny. Unprovoked?? Lol
It's you who is heavily delusional.

When Israel was attacked, the whole world condemned the action and I supported Israel military action.

In this case, It was Israel and the US that launched unprovoked military action against iran and should be condemned.
Foreign AffairsRe: Iran Asks Youth To Make Human Shields Around Power Plants Ahead Of Trump Strike by MT: 9:59am On Apr 07
If the strike does go on, it will forever be a black stain on the US military.

The president of the United States telling the world that the US was willing to commit war crimes openly. US military is trained on strength and professiomalism.

Let us see if the US military will execute this unlawful order from their insane commander in chief.

CareerRe: Oracle Fires 30,000 Employees As A Result Of AI Revolution by MT: 11:24am On Apr 01
Tohsynetita1:
The funny thing is, most of the workers built that AI that replaced them. It is like one working against oneself.
A time is coming when people won't have money to use the service of this tech companies because they are poor, maybe it's robot that will be using their services then. They feel, they can do without human, but when that time comes, we shall see.
AI is built by researchers. They are very few.

These researchers are different from individuals applying LLM to solve real life problems.

For your second paragraph, I think a time will come when govt will have to pay people for doing nothing. That's the only thing that can explain what is comingm

Good.

Those grease monkey coders thought they were the shitz.

I love how the same AI they created is seeing them lose their jobs.

Now I can get AIs like Claude to write a code for basically anything without even bothering to learn geek speak.
You are a vibe coder.

No serious organization will employ you. You are just doing cut and paste of code churned out by LLM. That's a recipe for disaster.
CelebritiesRe: Iyabo Ojo Reacts To Funke Akindele/Toyin Abraham Snub by MT: 5:49pm On Mar 31
It's wrong for Toyin to mess up Funke in the open and then attempted to be nice in private. That's hypocrisy.

Toyin should have used other channels to address her grievances with funke instead of going to the social media.

Toyin at fault here.
PoliticsRe: Kwankwaso Resigns From NNPP by MT:
So, we still have some people believing any political party has a minute chance against Tinubu?

That's quite delusional.

The forthcoming election will be over by 12noon, and Tinubu will gap the runner up with a very large margin.

If you cant see this on the wall, I do not know the kind of politics you are playing.

EducationRe: ASUU Rejects FG’s Plan To Open British University Campus In Nigeria by MT: 11:30am On Mar 28
ASUU fails in their first reason for objecting - " they denied Nigeria students visa to study abroad, yet they want to come to Nigeria to rake in the money".

That's lame.

They are supposedly "intellectuals" and ought to come up with sound reasoning and arguments.

They know these universities are coming with mind blowing infrastructures and organisation. Hopefully, this act will force ASUU and Nigeria uni to up their games.

Lovelink1991:
It was with joy when a new UK based Nigeria saw a fridge on the street of UK and took it home, plug it to start using it when he discovered that it is not working.

To avoid story that touch he has to return it to the same spot where he took it.

Make dem nor come deport am because of fridge wey nor dey work.

Watch as he took it straight to the same spot

Why is this a news?

Nigerians would do everything to create content. More reasons why white people disrespect an average African.

Carrying fridge on his head in public to create content is disgraceful. I wonder who gave individuals like this visa.

Shame

donleo92:
American is nato and nato is American!!! cool

And imagine if America decides to withdraw from NATO, DONT YOU think that's the end of that organization undecided

Those NATO nations got to get their acts in order angry

America can do it alone , but they want it to be like a joint effort, and trust America to remember nations that helped them.... Lets forget been democrat or been Republican. America is America cool

They will be a time the European nations will need America, and they would claim neutral...... And you would see the effect angry

Ask Churchill during the second war world cool, he was begging and pleading with America to join the war, and when they did, the war was won in matter of months than years

Not failing to mention the Soviet Union cool those guys were the best in hand to hand combat cool
At the bolded, you are wrong.

America military assets are overstretched.

America enemies are watching in pleasure as Trump is burning America war stockpiles foolishly.

They don't have the military capacities to open the strait of Hormuz because all their military capabilities are engaged one way or the other.

Trump entered into the war based on assumptions that the Iranians would help them to overthrow the regime. That's not happening and they are stuck in a forever war.

The bolded is a blanket statement. It depends on who you were in Nigeria. Lot of dudes in Nigeria with a sort-after skills are just going on vacation abroad, earning big in Nigeria. Visit Victoria Island to see for yourself.

Do you understand what they call "premium" life? I will be interested to know how you are enjoying "premium" life abroad. Just a handful of people abroad are enjoying "premium" life - I mean individuals that occupy top echeleon in the society ;ike Richard Brandson, Bill gates etc

Quit this exagerration and dont confuse the poor soul.

If you are married one of you should be in Tech or Health sector. The other can still find something like minimum wage Job.

Breaker001:
Ayatollah Khomeni actually took over from a US ally. Pahlavi who was the Shah of the Iranian government at the time. It was a revolution which started as a protest by University students and culminated into a major Islamic revolution which Khomeni who was a prominent opposition voice rode upon to overthrow the Iranian government in 1979.
You missed out a critical part.

During the islamic revolution, the iranian military wanted to confront the revolution and protected the Shah Government but the United States pressured the Iranian military not to intervene. This made the islamic revolution to be successful.
