I am disgusted by what I see going on in the war between Azerbaijan and Armenia. The Azeri soldiers once capturing Armenian soldiers are simply executing them on the spot. I’ll spare your the footage. ( Amir Tsarfati) |

atmy1: USA never claimed to be saviours alot of their actions are basically foreign policy which can come off bad and selfish sometimes but they still have their goodwill even more than that of Russia, there's a reason people still migrate more to USA than places like Russia, even Russian billionaires trust USA than their home country and keep their wealth there along their other allied countries, many countries are still embracing and lobbying USA as of today. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

loyedammy: Yeah,,, Good will always win against evil... But who are you painting as good here in this conflict? Last time I checked,, there is no such thing as good in global politics.... It's just about ego,pride,Interest,money,superiority,godfatherism etc just to mention a few. At most you can say lesser evil and bigger evil,, but all parties involved here are after their own interest and not what is right.... You can chose to be sentimental all you want,, but that is the truth. |

sanpipita:Russia is similar to Nigeria in many ways. Let me list some. 1. Natural resource dependence. Like us they use their natural resourse to sustain their economy to a greater extent than their European peers. 2. Low per capita GDP but huge budget. They have a huge budget and economy like us, but when you consider the population factor, per capita GDP is lower compared to other European nations. This has given them a false sense of superpower and super wealthiness. In summary, they are like many small nations running a single country system. 3. Tribal dominance. Like the Hausa/Fulani dominance of Nigeria, they have the Rus who dominate juicy positions and a strong Jewish minority for technical support. Imagine Buhari adjusting the constitution to allow him run indefinitely and then conscripting Yorubas, Igbos and other non Fulani groups to invade Cameroon with the aim of taking lands where Fulani herders gave been causing trouble systematically for long in neighboring countries. 4. Resentment of dominant tribes across borderlines. Like Fulani have a reputation of oppression and expansion, the Rus too are doing similarly across eastern Europe. 5. Oligarchy. Just look at their oligarchs and look at the top 10 richest mennin Nigeria. 4 Likes |

Re: Gov. by Nobody: 1:55pm On Oct 03, 2022 |
Please stop brandishing America's prosperity as a proof of their goodness. Its just like my rich uncle who pays my school fees but made his money as a drug dealer who kills people. His magnanimity to me does not change the fact that he is a cold hearted criminal. He may be nice to me but his true nature is what he does to others. That means one day if I tell the truth to his face he will be as mean to me. sanpipita: 3 Likes |

RepoMan007: Yes remember like Nigeria some ethnic minorities in Russia tried breaking away but were coerced back, my problem is just failure of Nigeria to maximize its resources like Russia did, we could easily be a strategic regional or continent power, we have very small and poor nations around us we could have controlled and influenced if we wished. |
