yeah romance sucks, u will clearly get the same line and prediction in ten different novel. I can force myself to read histories when it interesting, intruiging, reading about something, or looking for something. That ideology might still change, because i remember when i used to say i won't waste my time reading or watching news, but here am i on nairaland

all this rubbish that israel is doing is draging us closer to ww3. They are talking about dialogue with hamas and they are targeting iran officials, In a foregin country. If israel tries to take on the middle east today, she would be flattened even with US aid.

Bro, life is too short to get yourself worked up and confused over a random nairalander. I don't take comments here serious and I advise you to do the same.

To set the records straight and clear some of your self-imposed confusion..
-I am Pro-West
-I am not unidirectional in my worldview
-I do not celebrate killings, you must have confused me with your kingsnairaland
-I am an atheist.

Is Israel now murdering diplomats? A building in-between two embassies is most definitely an embassy or the extension of an embassy.

This won't end well.

I said it. It's part of an embassy. This is the first time I will ever hear of a country deliberately targeting an embassy.

Ow. This is actually the second. The first was when US jets operating under NATO bombed the Chinese embassy in Belgrade, Serbia in 1999.

[b]Few people know that there are certain names of places in Nigeria that have been changed over time.

It's not a phenomenon limited to Nigeria though.

The Turkish city of Constantinople became Istanbul.

New Amsterdam became New York.

Salisbury became Harare.

Bombay became Mumbai.

Astana in Kazakhstan may have had the most name changes in modern history. It was Akmoly, Akmolinsk, Tselinograd, Akmola, and most recently Nur-Sultan.

In Nigeria, an Italian missionary Carlos Zappa renamed Ahaba to Asaba.

Victoria Island was taken from Iru and named after British monarch Queen Victoria.

Lewis Vernon Harcourt carved out a port city from Ikwerre and named it after himself - Port Harcourt.

Anambra is said to have been anglicized from river Ọmambala.

Ibani was changed to Bonny by Europeans.

Brass was given by the European'sto the Nembe coastal villages .

Sapele was traditionally called Urhiapele.

And my favourite place outside Uyo was too much to be pronounced by the Europeans, so they renamed Gwosh as Jos.

The relics of colonialism are hidden in plain sight.

Iran accuses Israel...

Alleged Israeli airstrike...

Israel accused of...

Iran says Israel...

We can all see how Israeli and western media refuse to acknowledge the fact that Israel bombed another country's embassy.

Instead, they are saying Iran said, or that Israel is accused of, or that there was an alleged airstrike.

Their supporters here too have kept mute, as they always do.

When Iran retaliates, they'll all begin calling Iran a terrorist state and will accuse it of committing a war crime by bombing an embassy.

And let's not forget that they will quote the date of Iran's revenge as the date everything began, while ignoring everything that happened before.

JEFFREY SACHS:

"You know very well—and I know very well—that there are people in the US government who know the truth.

Look at our CIA Director, William Burns. He was the ambassador to Russia in 2008.

He wrote a famous memo back to Washington from Moscow in 2008, explaining that expanding NATO to Ukraine would be absolutely against Russia's core national security concerns, as Russia has explained, across the political class.

This wasn't Putin; this wasn't a single individual. This was everybody.

That memo, by the way—as typical in the U.S.—would have been completely secret except Julian Assange leaked it.


So, we get to read it, and the memo famously was called 'Nyet means nyet.' Don't do it.

Now, the man is CIA Director.

Why doesn't he tell the American people truthfully?

Why doesn't he tell them, 'I was there. I saw it in 2008. I wrote this article. I explained it all; it's actually online. We should not be pushing this NATO business to the point of direct war,' which is exactly what we've done.

So, it is a mystery to me that the lies are so clear and yet, in my part of the world right now, there's no accountability for them at all."


This underscores the hypocrisy of US, withholding crucial information from the American public, perpetuating narratives that serve certain agendas. This is the thing I hate about US, what is more annoying is; some people still believes their lies in 2024, when even US citizens don't believe a single thing their government says
