see you can have any multipolar world you want as long as you don't go looking for trouble... U are saying this because you are not paying any bills.


Iran has been transferring weapons to terrorist groups some of these groups operate in middle east and africa (there have been reports of hezbollah activities in Nigeria ) what happens when they transfer nuclear weapons !

@bolded,
that is a very scary possibility. Imagine nuclear bombs in the hands of suicide bombers

Big major lie... Iran has been transferring weapons to resistance groups in the ME.
The biggest sponsor of terrorist is America because they arm basically any opposition against a government they don't like, eg Libya , Syria , Iraq and iran to name a few.

You think If a group props up in the Sahel states and they say they want to fight the military government... who do you think will supply those groups with weapons? Iran, Russia or China?
You probably know the answer.

The West is the biggest terrorist financier but their powerful propaganda outlet will portray them as saints.

One thing I know for sure about China and Russia is that they are ready to work with any government in a country, weather you are a dictator, military or civilian but same can't be said for the west they will sponsor regime change and install a government they want at the cost of thousands of innocent lives and yet they call themselves "Democracy"

if this is Iranian retaliation Iran has been talking about then they are a big joke
To me I'd prefer Iran should take this route of an economic retaliation rather than bombing for now because Truth be told Iran might be walking into a trap the US has set.

@Lordsomething on this thread made an interesting analysis.
Iran don't have what it takes to fully protect itself yet so why rush it? When they have nukes and fighters jets then they can talk about retaliation.

Let's not forget that NATO set the same trap for Russia when they were supporting Ukraine to strike deep in Russia to the extent that those clowns striked the Kremlin and they were rejocing about it now shebi dem don dey cry the best way to play the western game is not to do what they want you to do, they know Iran is a hot head that's why everyone was calling them asking them not to retaliate. Was calls made to Putin when the Kremlin was bombed? No! and to be honest I don't think they made a retaliation for that.
Now the terrorist attack in Moscow last month have Russia still gone full beast mode on Ukraine? No!

Germany has refused to buy cheap gas from Russia.
Now, Germany’s largest steelmaker Thyssenkrupp announced “a substantial reduction in production” at its Duisburg facility, laying off 13,000 employees.

The company blamed “high energy costs and tight emission reduction regulations”.
But some people were saying Germany and EU don’t need cheap Russia gas.
Russia cheap gas and oil are the backbone of German economy and now China and India are getting them.

Germany will suffer badly, if they want to win against Russia, the second time around.

That's the shipping route that the UAE allowed for Israel to beat the red Sea blockade. UAE even created a special port for Israel to help it easily ship goods into the country. So I understand the economic aspect of it.

But the bad news is if Iran closes the strait of Hormuz, it won't affect just Israel, na all of us go suffer the consequences. Over 30% of worldwide gas consumption and over 25% oil consumption passes through the strait.

The inflation go too choke everybody.

Our leaders don’t care, imagine a nation sitting on billions of dollars oil and gas still importing to survive.

If the war breaks out, Nigerians will suffer more than Iranians and Israelites that are at war.
The only future our leaders know how to plan is looting the nation dry.
We don’t even have defence systems
We don’t have underground bunkers to safe us in case of WW3 or WW4

Are you just knowing that? We are bleeped in any war scenario.

The only good news is that I don't think we will be in any external direct war scenario because of our huge population. Now add those in Togo, Benin, Ghana, Cameroon, Niger and Chad who can easily pass as Nigerians.

They won't allow that to happen else the refugee crisis in Europe go too choke.

🇮🇱 Hebrew medias confirmed the ship belonged to them.

Since closure of red sea by Ansarullah, Israel have been using UAE ports to deliver goods from India and other Asian countries to Israel by a land corridor that passes through UAE, Saudi Arabia and Jordan and bypass red sea.

The Iranian attack is a sign that new corridor will have same fate as red sea for Israeli ships.

This is one of the reasons why I dislike Iran.

They're more about the theatrics than action. Enough of all these games. You're losing important generals, diplomats, nuclear scientists.

Strike Israel hard for once!!
Exactly.

Not striking them has given this guy some form of leverage that they can do anything they want and get away with it.
In a serious country this issue will result to an all out war within minutes.

If Iran backs down from this opportunity they're doomed.
Israel on its own cannot stand Iran and her proxy in the M.E

Wasting time empowers your enemy to prepare for you.

Israel calls on the EU to recognize the IRGC as a terrorist organization and to impose sanctions against Iran after the seizure of the ship in the Strait of Hormuz, the Foreign Minister said.

🇮🇱 Foreign Minister of the Zionist entity: I call on the free world to declare the Iranian Revolutionary Guard a terrorist organization and impose sanctions on Iran


The Israeli Foreign Minister accused Iran of conducting a “pirate operation” and “violating international law” after the seizure of the ship in the Strait of Hormuz.

The international company Zodiac Maritime is associated with the container ship MSC Aries seized by Iran, but the ship's operator is the Geneva firm MSC. Zodiac Maritime reported this to TASS.
