People kept mentioning economic agenda, can you comfortably mention the things the US has benefitted from Nigeria in the last 10 years ? US on the other hand has given Nigeria billions of dollars in aides in the last 40 years including special medicines for free annually. Bill Gates alone had spent $15bn in Nigeria in the last 10 years alone.
Nigeria offers nothing to America economically, the earlier you folks realize the we are a receiving nation and not a giving nation the better.

”Influence”, that’s the payment. No country gives free cash or aid, there is always something in return.

The US is the world super power, what makes it so?

Why did Trump just give broke Argentina $40b to save their economy, you think the US is just nice or stupid?

Think about it.

ALTERNATEID:
While we cannot in all honesty wish away the cruel and evil killing of minorities in the north central states of Kwara, Benue, Plateau, southern kaduna etc, i strongly believe that the recent interest of the Trump administration is based on economic agenda and nothing altruistic. In this regard, I don’t think Donald Trump was misinformed.

Trump recently placed a 15% tariff on Nigeria and the country responded by banning the importation of 25 certain items from the country. The Tinubu administration has also been working on increasing local refining of petroleum products. Recently, a 15% tax on PMS importation was introduced to further discourage importation of petroleum products. This has seriously affected European and American refineries which are owned by Trump and his big oil buddies. They are not happy that Nigeria is prioritizing energy independence at the detriment of American and European oil companies.

Again, Nigeria’s recent romance with BRICS is unsettling the Trump administration. The BRICS countries are planning to issue a new currency so as to sidestep the US dollars and Nigeria has signed up to be a part of the BRICS monetary union. Trump had vowed to make sure this does not happen. The Yuan - Naira currency swap between China and Nigeria that has recently helped to strengthen the Naira is also another source of concern to the US.

So, a combination of all these issues plus Nigeria’s stance against the GAZA genocide is why Donald Trump is targeting the Nigeria government. If they can’t control Nigeria, they will do everything possible to destroy the country.

I couldn’t have said it better. Well done to you.

Lol it’s so easy to deceive people. See as guys are licking the lies like soup.

I don’t need to wait to hear from the other people involved to know that this lady probably left her lebanese husband who is/was probably a friend or business partner to this Oil mogul to be with the oil mogul with her 4 children.

Now oil mogul is shanking her daughter and showing his true colour, then she is now forming story that she was sold with 4 children lol

nosiebaba:
Story story story story. The days of deflection tactics are over.
our own african black brothers are being killed by like chickens even filming it and posting it on the internet yet you are concerned about palestine and isreal. Since the islamic insurgency started in Nigeria where has your Palestine drawn awareness to Nigeria?

”Your own african brothers” are killing each other is different from a foreign country invading and killing your brothers. Maybe talk to your brothers to stop killing each other.

Africa problem is inward, caused by greediness, religion fanatism and stupidity (low IQ). These problems are being harnessed by foreign entities.

Nigerians (Boko haram) are killing Nigerians, Sundanese are killing Sudanese, Congolese are killing Congolese.

Nothing international awareness will do in these scenarios. Hold your people and government accountable or volunteer to join the armed forces on the frontline if you are really concerned.

BlackViper:
Atrocities? Hahaha😄 You don't just start a war with a superior opponent, then cry about atrocity when you are soundly beaten

The war didn’t start on Oct 7th, and even in wars, there are rules, that’s why you have “war crimes”. Get educated first and don’t mention me anymore.

nosiebaba:
Suprisingly isreal is the one exposimg the attrocites in sudan more than any country in the world

It’s no surprise for anyone who sees beyond mere propaganda. Israel always capitalise on any diversion to tone down their own atrocities in Palestine.

It’s the same way they are the loudest with the “Christain genocide in Nigeria” hasbara. The way their AIPAC-funded US senators are pushing the story, you’d think they give any fvck about Nigerians.

BarrElChapo:
Help your family and loved ones first. They need it.

BarrElChapo:
You need an MRI if Trump is the only thing to think about when you see Monday

They are both idiots and they are elected. Tells you what stupid world this is

Lol, this guy reminds me of Trump.


Crazy shit

Checkwell:
People dey record for content when their life is at risk instead of coming together to help save the situation. Stupid generation.

Coming together to do what? On an airborne flight ?

There’s a protocol. Staying calm and having some people handle it is the best. This is a civilised society, not Nigeria where, people in this situation might have started jumping on each other, shouting holy ghost fire and running around panicking.

I don’t rule out some trying to jump off from the air

Curious345:
What if the drone use thin line optic fibre cables . It cannot be jammed .. everyone is learning from Ukraine

They cannot be that advanced, and if they are, we counter it. Hunt for their drone operators, or tracking the signals.

Jam their drones. Don’t we have EW equipments?

helinues:
Na why I dey sometimes laugh some of them whenever they claimed their region is the most developed in Nigeria, with what land mass? South East is so tiny

Development is not measured by size.

Singapore, Qatar and tens of countries are smaller than the size of a typical Nigerian state yet they are in 2025 while Nigeria is still wallowing in backwardness.

esnbrutality:
In the SW without war..

Your brothers are harvesting human parts and ritual killings are an EPIDEMIC. Face your region ogbeni

I don’t do tribal war, and I don’t support any side. I’m only stating the obvious. Go on and find your fellow jobless minions to do tribal war with.

Una never ready, make una dey fight between una sef, make government dey loot una.

kettykin:
If the oil and gas companies had established their headquarters in the former Eastern capital, Enugu, some Ijaws would still be crying out in their subconscious that the Igbos are oppressing them. But look around today notice the calm, the silence, and how quickly the outrage disappears when the tables are turned.

Secondly, imagine if it were the Igbos involved in banditry or Boko Haram. Every affected zone would have risen in coordinated rage, chanting igbo must go,and companies would have shut their doors in protest. Yet today, the same people endure these realities in silence, calling it the will of God, while their clergies gather to seek divine direction instead of justice.

I disagree with your second paragraph. What IPOB/ESN gunmen are doing in the SE is nothing short of what Boko haram
/bandits are doing in the north. They kill civilians and government forces, shut down businesses, engage in robberies and allegedly engage in cannibalism.

safarifarms:
I'd thought it was peace you guys want. Can you guys ever be pleased?

Here's a well thought out plan even with a prospect of a Palestinian state if they behave well and yet you guys will still prefer negativity. That's how Arab nations pushed these guys away from accepting the original division of the land between them and Israel and leading them on into the long years of fight while abandoning them halfway.

ElevationD:
Hopefully Hamas agrees to the peace plan and let Palestinians have their peace.

With the UN forcing Iran’s hand with threats of further sanctions, it is hoped that Iran will not make the wrong move of opting out of the NPT and just concentrate or think about fixing the ailing economy. In just a matter of days, Iranians are groaning under increasing costs of basic needs. For example, a kilo of beef goes for $10. If Ayatollah chooses to go the hard way instead of following the voice of reasoning, then the citizens should rise up at last against the regime.

Only yesterday, the Houthis defiantly fired a ballistic missile at Tel Aviv. Hopefully peace with Gaza will not afford the Israelis the opportunity to face the Houthis more squarely. Two days ago, Hezbollah announced that they had re-armed. While the Lebanese government is seeking to end the crisis and get Hezbollah to disarm, the leaders are talking about re-arming and facing the Israelis again. Hopefully Hezbollah will not make a wrong move that may put Lebanon at risk again.

Netanyahu did well to apologize to the Qataris. Hopefully compensation would be paid to those affected by the strike.

It is sincerely hoped that Hamas will throw pride away and take this opportunity. Even though the loss on the Palestinian side is not quantifiable, especially in terms of human lives, Hamas must fully surrender and drop all arms for that land to be rebuilt. Gaza is a beautiful area and if well financed, can become one of the most beautiful areas on earth some day.

After this, won’t it be appropriate for Mr. Putin to put an end to his arrogance against Ukraine?

We must all say thanks to President Donald Trump for his efforts in respect of Gaza, Ukraine and the rest of the world.

You are naive if you think Israel want peace or will respect any agreement, they will do their best to ruin this at any attempt. In fact they can start sponsoring other militias inside gaza to disrupt the truce just to continue the war (PS: they sponsored hamas against PLO and currently sponsoring Abu Shabab militias to fight hamas in Gaza).

By the way, how is the ceasefire in Lebanon going? Is israel observing any ceasefire? Have they withdrawn from the points they occupied as agreed?

Wo, una matter don tire me for this forum, una no sabi anything apart from tinubu and obi, make person just dey look una.

The question is: Of all the 195 countries in the world, why is it only USA and Israel (a party in the case) that find Palestine unfit to be a nation of her own?

I pray that US continues her support for Israel.

US interests change quickly.

Same you, where do you stand? A country for Palestine or not?

By the way, you made a sensible comment on a thread ( a rare thing on Nairaland these days) and I thought I’d check this moniker.

Nairalander248:
All these explanations no follow, just shutop because you never experience it doesn't mean it doesn't happened to others! Miracle happened... [b]Explain the turning of water into wine and healing of blind and raising the dead which Jesus did. [/b]One of the person healed said, if they like make them talk, so far I know I was healed....

Lol you were making sense until the bolded. You described it like you were there when it happened, something you cannot proof.

Apcshit:
How many times will this news grace front page for crying out loud?

You are just noticing. Nairaland is has turned Israeli propaganda tool.

This website cannot sink lower than this.

The title should have been “ ICC wanted genocidal maniac Netanyahu addresses empty seats “

So women don’t have voice in Islam?

Such fanatic ideology like this is what the enemies of islam are using against Islam all over the world at the moment.

This is a very big thumbs down post 👎

hope4nigeria:
stonning Israeli security operatives amount to war declaration

I have seen a lot of stup1d comments on this thread so far but this bolded takes the day .

Nairaland no go kill me

malali:
My apologies, i didnt know you are one of the ignorant ones. Do a little google search.
Next time try to research what you want to discuss online.

Bro, I commend you for your courage and strength.

I wish I had that kind of strength. I've tried several times to educate some of these guys, but they keep coming with endless stupidity and ignorance, and I end up giving up.

Having said that, in my opinion, I believe people's ignorance stems from two things. One, not knowing what international law is and how it applies to this conflict or Israel genocide, two, seeing this conflict as a religious war. The two statements below under international law explains everything:

1. Occupied people's right to self-determination: People living under colonial or foreign rule have the right to fight for their independence. Numerous UN General Assembly resolutions affirm the legitimacy of this struggle "by all available means, including armed struggle".

2. No right to self-defense against occupied territory: As an occupying power, Israel cannot invoke the right to self-defense against threats originating from the territory it occupies. The primary obligation for an occupying power is to ensure the security of the occupied population, not to use military force against it under the pretext of self-defense.

Esthered:
How did they make a movie about somebody who wasn't in custody?

He ran to Israel.

Israel is known to harbour criminals including it’s prime minister who is wanted by the ICC.

He is a hateful white supremacist. This was his comment during US destruction of Libya.

White supremacist nationalist and lunatic right wingers will always use Christianity as a cover; but you never find them in churches.

Religion they said is the opium of the masses. What else would turn people against each other like religion.

Reference:
The US has not stopped immigration. It is trying to stop illegal immigration, that is anything from overstays to people smuggling across the southern border in particular.

Laughable. After 7 months of all this charade, some of you are still living in ignorance and don’t know what’s really going on in the US.

Impressive, if true.
