A country that kills members of the oppossition is not a rogue country? In terms of democratic norms and values Nigeria is even a better country that Russia

We can sit online and abuse Tinubu and our elected members office holders. Tell me if you can do that in russia. Tell me?

Some of you will just be supporting blindly

Haba!

I think the world is being led by weak men today! It's interesting that Hamas attacked Israel, but Israeli PM gets an arrest warrant for strongly defending his country in a war where nobody is checkmating the aggressor. The world no longer teaches people not to attack those who can beat them, the weak now take advantage of the strong.

This is not an alliance. This is a ripoff

True



What is the USA gaining from Ukraine? All the billions sent to him were used for what? The US owes $ 30 trillion giving out freebies, yet their citizens are over-taxed and don't get the best of everything.


The Europeans don't buy or use much of American goods, yet they export billions worth of Goods to the US. So, I ask again what is the US benefiting from being allied with leeches?

You and your fellow Islamic supporters are daft hypocrites—shifting goalposts at any slightest opportunity. You all were wailing about how the US was supporting Ukraine, and now, you are all shedding crocodile tears about the lack of further support?



You just showed your lack of basic education Mr. Head slammer. When you print so much money, inflation ensues...

The US has been the biggest contributor to NATO, the UN, and other agencies like URNWA and USAID. Other European countries are growing their economy with little to no pressure, yet the US places pressure on its taxpayers.

What does the US get in exchange? Entitled Islamists and Europeans who do little for them. If you look at history, different styles of government have been applied—and they either work or fail. So let's sit out Trump's style.

Calling him Putin's lapdog shows you're a dumb Muslim. What is the point of supporting Zelensky? When he can't use US weapons beyond kurks and Ukraine? His defeat will surely come, and that would mean the defeat of the US(if they keep supporting him). Trump is playing one of the smartest games here—alienating the US from the Impending defeat while also securing a mouthwatering minerals deal.



Another dumb naira lander. The US owes both domestic and foreign investors( majorly China and Japan) through financial assistance in exchange for treasury bonds and bills. This debt is being accrued by spending beyond revenues from taxes and other sources. Mind you, the US constantly pays interest on those bonds and bills. So what exactly do you mean by old stockpile?

madridguy:
48 laws of power is playing seriously here.

Majority of the European countries, relied too much on their friend " USA ". I think it is time rich countries like Germany go back to their drawing board.

The World will be less safer. And rogue countries like Russia can wake up today and take over any country he likes.

There is a reason why there is NATO. The US and Western Europe coming from the effects of World War 1 and 2 swore never to allow mad people like Hilter behave anyhow again.

But it is unfortunate that in our life time,Another Hilter is almost here,together with the Russian stooge in the WH,the world just might be closer to World War 3

But some of you who just started reading the news yesterday,who are lovers of Dictators do not know which is which. You just follow the bandwagon here and there

YoruBads:
Talk about your country Nigeria, what is it bringing to the table?

With a leader thst brought only pain, misery, insurgency, kidnapping, hunger etc to you, but you're busy advising US and EU, you don't have shame oooo

xandy84:
Sorry, US is my country and I pay taxes that fund the government, which gives me the right to criticize government policies.

blaise26abj:
All of this na strategy . Trump is no fool . He knows that US has been funding NATO and other alliances more than other countries that benefit more . He is threatening to leave to force them to do more . Just watch as European countries rush to preserve the alliance and give concessions . Most of thir economies are struggling . They will not want to burden themselves with running NATO without US leadership.

Can anyone here tell me why russia has been labelled a bad country ? Is it the conditioning we have received by watching too many American movies that portray them as evil ? Besides they have not done 1/10th of what US has done in the world in terms of wars and toppling governments . So can someone remind me why they are bad ?

Saga16:
You not only lack sense, you lack home training.

USA's donations to Ukraine is through their old stockpiles of munitions.

givedemwotowoto:
Rightly so, but are you happy with the amount of tax you pay because of these wars and “costly” bureaucracy? Are you happy the $36 Trillion debt and disappearing social security in your country?

Iweakbro:
Okay, little kid. In your incoherent submission, you mentioned $30 b, yet what I quoted was a 30 trillion debt.

Further, besides the stockpile of weapons, US has offered grants and loans, of over $200b to Ukraine.

About the stockpile of weapons, it's not about the age, but by the range and destruction it offers. Take, for example, the precious storm shadow and ATACMS( cost $1.5m for one) which have been used to hit targets deep into Russia

What exactly is your point? If Nigeria stores grains for over 10 years and eventually hands them out to Ghana as aid, does it mean it costs Nigeria nothing to grow and store those grains over that time frame?

benuejosh:
The day Elon Musk will talk about Biafra...

xandy84:
You sound like middle age mid western farmer who only watch Newmax and live on conspiracy theories until Trump cuts aids USAID and he has no buyer for his farm produces, and now facing bankruptcy due to not been able to make payment on loans that his farms stands as collateral.

Namaster:

Very good!

FOOLS claimed to support the Felon because voting for Harris would be voting for WW3.

Let's see how they like it when the POTBELLIED fuccckwads get CONSCRIPTED to fight by a notorious draft-dodger.

blaise26abj:
Thanks for the points. However I had to come with proof that US had been ( before Trump )and still is one of the largest contributors to NATO.
Imagine the commitment that you must spend a certain percentage of your GDP on Defence and your GDP is as large as all of NATO members GDP combined .
2. It pales in comparison to what they spend on Defence. But you have a good point here .
3. They don’t have a choice but to support Ukraine but they just cannot do it effectively without US military hardware in NATO. Dont forget , US weapons is keeping Ukraine in the war. How much in hardware has European countries contributed ?
4.”It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America’s friend is fatal “ Henry Kissinger. I think who doesn’t fear America , friend or foe , is playing with fire

Tolu2024:
If Ukraine is not a member of NATO why are they supporting Ukraine?

I don’t know if you were born when NATO invade Libya why can’t they do the same for Ukraine?

Europe made America and Europe can destroy it. Where was Russia when Germany was taking on the world in WW2 on its own for 5 years. Just because men calm down doesn’t mean they are weak. If the 5 power house of Europe team up they will smoke Russia and that America. Even Japan caught America sleeping on Pearl Harbour

naijaguy1234:
Europeans cannot fund NATO like the USA does but maybe it’s time they form an European army as people are already suggesting .

America forget when it needed support after 9/11 especially in invading Iraq, the saying then was an attack on one is an attack on all. You had a country like Canada then that had absolutely no business to be in Iraq but ended up sending thousands of troops to support America and a few met their death.

uncleck:
Election has consequences. Because you want to put "America first" you are unknowingly destroying America beyond repair. Let me break it down.

America is the biggest beneficiary of both NATO and UN against what Trump would have you all to believe. Ellon Musk is one of the individuals that have benefited the most from the existence of NATO and UN. Let me explain

The existence of NATO only serves the interest of America because it ensures that they have access to enormous quantities of raw materials needed to run American economy and also the leverage to assert their military power. In the absence of NATO, America will be isolated and it's economy crippled.

Same as the UN. UN gives American the power to intimidate, bully and coarse any country of their choice. In the absence of both NATO and UN, America will hardly be able to find market for their products and raw materials for their industries.

In a free market economy, America cannot defeat China in export of any form. American diplomacy, all things being equal, cannot win Chinese and Russians.

If America exits NATO and UN, it will be a win for China, Russia and the world at large because they will lose the influence to force dollars on anyone. Russia will expand politically. China's trade will grow exponentially. American dominance, especially in trade and commerce, will come to an abrupt end.

In the absence of NATO, America won't be able to threaten, even countries like Nigeria, because you need a military base in close proximity to attack a country. NATO currently gives America that leverage.

In conclusion, the conversation about exiting NATO and UN is childish because, to start with, both organizations serve only the interest of America.

If America exits NATO and UN, and Europe decide to strengthen EU, EU will enjoy better trade relation with Russia

prophetfire:
Who taught you your own history please?
So you don't know the country that dealt with Germany the biggest blow in WW2?
If you don't know what the Russian red army did to secure victory for the allied forces during WW2, then better go and study.

Elon and Trump are people who like challenging norms and widely held assumptions for positive change.
