Politics / Re: Thisday: US Finally Weans Self Off Nigerian Oil by okunboy: 2:00pm On Oct 03, 2014
Congratulations Nigeria! The black oil that have suppressed virtually all other resources that can transform your economy is going down. That black evil oil that could barely generate 15% employment for your teaming population is finally going down! The revenue which is mainly a share entity among your thiefing politicians. Over $300 billion generated from this evil oil (equivalent amount used to build the entire Europe) in Nigeria has made you a pauper than any other country in the world! Gradually, the prayer of Mrs Oby Ezekwesili is being answered. I prayed too that not only will US stop buying your Oil, others will follow soon (Can I hear AMEN)

Only 1 Per Cent of Nigerian Population Reaps from Oil Exports Funds – Oby Ezekwesili

Nigeria, a commodity that benefit only 1% of your polulation is not needed! Good riddance to bad rubish!!

Congratulation once again!!!

Politics / Re: Cameroon Bombs Boko Haram Camp Killing “many” Fighters by okunboy: 9:59am On Aug 29, 2014
We were told that dis war is not a conventional one...it is a guerrilla war!
We were told bokoharam mixed among the pple..... it is difficult to isolate them from innocent civilian!
We were told that our border is too large and porous....it is difficult to secure
We were told that bokoharam run to the neighbouring countries after they attack us to take cover........and international rule of engagement forbids blah blah blah......and Nigeria is a respecter of International law (we are good and law abiding Nation)
We were told so many excuses......

Today, this war is now conventional not guerrilla : bokoharam seize towns and erect flags.....they stand face2face with nigerian army. But yet our soldiers can not meet up with the enemy fire power...except for some 'tactical maneuver' into the neighbouring country (Covet Nigerian Military way of saying 'we pick race').

Today, they are not kidnapping our innocent villagers and running away with them, they kidnap the village itself , marry the women and slaughter the men; the luck ones runaway!

Today, our neighbours are even showing more power and tactics in engaging the enemies..killing them and rescuing their captives. ..

We are severally been bombarded with excuses upon excuses..........from this incompetent govt.

numericalguy: @okunboy

Every society/community have their Judases. Even the Arabs have had one of their own betraying them in return for solver trown to them by westerners.

I have not seen any analysis in the write up except for the regular stereotypes, and frankly its becomming quite boring saying the same thing over and over again likea broken record.

Every society have their problems. In the USA for instance, it is four times easier for you to go to prison than for you to go to college. It is far more easier to be mudered in the state of Arizona than for you to die of old age.

In your hometown okunland, there are so many ashawos hotels scattered arround town. Most of your pastors are nothing buy ritualist that use human heads to make charms so that their churches can be filled up. Maybe you should remove the log in your eyes before you look at other people.

As a last and personal advice, try and read books to enlighten yourself before you start to display your ignorance on a public forum.

A white man once said " if you must hide something from a blackman, put it in a book"

@numericalguy.
If you check my posts, contributions etc on this forum, you will discover i don't engage in abusive argument with fellow nairalanders....! I believe in respecting other opinion and say mine. You can make your point without resulting into insulting others. And I refuse to insult you, so I will not be classed inappropriately. Meanwhile, u did not read the interview of your fellow muslim who happened to be a cleric for that matter. Pls read and address the issues. This thread is about intolerance of others cultures. Address the issues of brain-washing young muslim to go commit suicide in anticipation of black virgin in paradise (incidentally only the young ones are sent to commit suicide in exchange of the virgins), address the issues of hatred towards fellow human in the name of religion, and so many others your fellow Muslim raised in that post.

PLS READ THE INTERVIEW AGAIN

If every Muslim in the world think like this man here in this youtube video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZRuH21JTak

Transcription:

Bahraini Liberal Author Dhiyaa Al-Musawi: We Hang Our Thinkers on the Gallows of Ideology. I Listen to Music and Placed Pictures of Jesus and Martin Luther King in My Home.

Following are excerpts from an interview with Bahraini intellectual Dhiyaa Al-Musawi, which aired on Abu Dhabi TV on December 29, 2006.
Dhiyaa Al-Musawi: I do not believe in gallows of ideology. Our problem in the Arab world is that we have many gallows of ideology and of accusations of social betrayal, on which we try to hang an intellectual, a thinker, or a poet every day, just like in the case of Naguib Mahfouz and others. We, I'm sad to say, are against creativity and civilization, and against any language that seeks common ground in society.
[...]
We must have the courage to get rid of the “backward” cholesterol of ideology, accumulating in the arteries of Arab awareness and the Arab mind. We suffer from backwardness. This is not masochism - the kind psychologists talk about - acts of self-flagellation. This is the truth. We have not developed even to the point of admitting defeat. We [have to] admit our cultural defeat. In the past, we had a civilization in Andalusia and in many other places, but today we are regressing – we export violence, we terrorize whole countries, we threaten national security, and many other things.
[...]
We need to reform and to reshape religious thinking, because, in all honesty, the pulpits of our mosques have begun to "booby trap" the people.
Interviewer: In what way?
Dhiyaa Al-Musawi: They booby trap them by generating hatred towards "the other." We have claimed a monopoly over Paradise, and each of us has recorded it in the land registry in his name.
Interviewer: But the pulpits are under government supervision.
Some of them are under government supervision, but in some Arab countries, although they are under government supervision, the government itself encourages the booby trapping. This problem has political reasons, but who pays the price? The country, society, civil society, and the young man, who is being told that the black-eyed virgins await him at the gates of Paradise, and that all he has to do is kill himself, to slaughter himself. He might blow up his family and children to get the virgins of Paradise. This is the language and culture of death. We were not born into this world in order to die this way. The beauty of Man lies in his living for the sake of his homeland, not in dying while booby trapping others.
[...]
In the Arab world, we have religious clerics who are beacons [of knowledge], but I think the problem is that we are constantly intimidating the public. We talk only about Hell, and not about Paradise at all. The Koran is balanced. It talks about the fire of Hell and the fruits of Paradise, but we constantly preach about the horrors of Judgment Day, saying that a bald Satan, or a bald serpent, would visit them in the grave. It is constant terror. It is always a dark picture. Why? That is the problem. Unfortunately, some young men – out of a wrong interpretation of religion... The moment he becomes religious, he ceases to smile and to greet others. He accuses some people of heresy and others of sin. He begins all that discourse. He hates music, and refuses to dress neatly. His mind is abducted into the dungeons of ideology, I'm sad to say.
Interviewer: Let me ask you a question. If a Shiite, or even a Sunni, becomes a religious cleric, yet he listens to music, can the Arab public possibly accept him?
Dhiyaa Al-Musawi: In my view, the Arab disposition suffers from many problems. We have destroyed many things, including the beauty of the general disposition. Music is a beautiful thing...
Interviewer: Do you listen to music?
Dhiyaa Al-Musawi: Yes, I listen to music. I listen to classical music, and I think Beethoven's symphonies are very beautiful. They are among the masterpieces of human art. I believe that music develops the spirit of Man and humbles him. What is wrong with that?
[...]
As for the policy of non-violence, I'd like to give you the example of Gandhi, whom I consider a hero. If only we could obtain some of Gandhi's genes, and plant them in the brains of our youth in the Arab world...
Interviewer: In your home, you have pictures of Martin Luther King and Jesus on the wall.
Dhiyaa Al-Musawi: In my home, I put up a picture of Jesus, because whenever I look at his picture, worlds of peace and love open up before me. It was Jesus who said: "Love thy enemies, bless them who curse thee." We need this beautiful language in our society. I also have a picture of Gandhi, whom I consider to be a very fine person, and whose [image] we should plant in the minds of our youth.
[...]
Some of us say: "May Allah curse the Jews and the Christians, the offspring of apes and pigs." Is this the language of progress? Is this the language of enlightenment and tolerance? If you had been born in Rome, you would have been Christian, if you had been born in Tehran, you would have been Shiite, and if you had been born in Saudi Arabia, you would have been Sunni, and so on. How wonderful it would be if all these people could gather in love around the table of humanity.
[...]
Nations that read more are the nations that are most respected, like the Western nations, where people read... When you travel to Switzerland, everywhere you go - on the bus or wherever - you see people reading books. Do you see such sights in the Arab world?
[...]
The problem of the Arab youth is that they do not read. As Gustave le Bon wrote in The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind, the Arab youth sometimes smile while they are taken to the slaughterhouse. Why? Because they lack awareness. We suffer from illiteracy. Today, the Arab world has, according to a U.N. report, close to 70 million illiterate adults – in other words, 70 million people whom you can booby trap, against their country and society, because they do not read.

Politics / Re: Boko Haram Mount Flag In Damboa Town , Soldiers , Villagers Flee by okunboy: 11:07pm On Jul 20, 2014
Reading this post...i cast my mind back to when the Governor of Borno State stormed aso rock months ago to give clues to what is happening with the military and boko boys. I could remember 3 points he made then. he said:

1. Boko Harams are better equipped than our military.

Evidence: Despite initial gra-gra and barking from presidents aids and co; months latter, the same government is seeking for a loan of $1billion to upgrade her equipment to fight boko-haram.

2. Boko Harams are better motivated than our military.

Evidence: Despite initial gra-gra and barking from presidents aids and co; months latter, the same government through his General (Minimah or what is he call self) said the Nigerian troops are COWARD they could not fight the BH boys, worse than shetima put; They run like dog with his tail between his legs . DISGRACEFUL

3. We are @ WAR...

It is pointless to defend this....

This Government should bury her face in SHAME!
