Uprightness100:
After it was reported that a former soccer player for the Palestinian national team was killed while waiting to collect aid in the southern Gaza Strip last week, the IDF says it is unaware of any casualties in the area that day.

Suleiman al-Obeid, 41, was killed Wednesday when Israeli forces “targeted people waiting for humanitarian aid in the southern Gaza Strip,” the Palestinian Football Association claimed in a statement.

In response, the military says that "from an initial and thorough examination, no casualties are known to have resulted from IDF fire in the distribution center areas in the Gaza Strip on August 6."
Was he killed yes or no, is he alive yes or no? If he has been killed then what killed him and why are journalists not allowed into Gaza. What is it are you people hiding?

The Palestinians:

▪️ They entered Lebanon and caused a civil war and the spread of weapons and chaos to this day

▪️ They lived in Jordan and attempted to overthrow the King of Jordan in what was called “Black September.”


▪️ They entered Syria and killed the Syrian people and dug tunnels in the Syrian city of Ghouta.

▪️ They entered Egypt and killed the Egyptian soldiers and slaughtered them in the Sinai desert

▪️ They entered Kuwait for work, and when Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait, they stood with Saddam Hussein against Kuwait, which received them.


▪️ They entered Iraq and became suicide bombers, exploding in popular markets in Baghdad.

▪️ They entered Europe as refugees, and today they are demonstrating in the streets and waging chaos and violence against the country’s residents.

▪️ They entered ISRAEL to work, and they did what we all witnessed on October 7th.

A Gazan posted on social media the type of good entering into Gaza:

I posted on the social network about some types of goods that entered on Friday through the various crossings:


1. Coca Cola and soft drinks
2. Lighters
3. Various cheeses
4. Halva
5. Coffee
6. Rice
7. Sugar
8. Nuts
9. Olive oil
10. Potato Chips
and more.

All the above while in the real famine-struck parts of the world water and bread aren’t to be found…

We understand were your rationale is coming from, this is a clear example of "Sour grapes. It is commonplace for persons to downplay freedom of speech when they are followers of Putin, XI, and Kim, Authoritarian rulers ruling in "suppressive" states which are known for their actions against freedom of speech.

Is like a Nigerian saying there's no judicial independence in other countries, because he knows that the judiciary in his own country is the puppet of the executive.

Last last una go they alright

Alaye rest your case, If UK and EU are making arrest over what people say on social media then where's the freedom of speech? What's the freedom of speech people in EU/UK are enjoying that people in China/Russia aren't?

The only reason the west is calling Russia/China an oppressive regime is because those nations are their adversaries, the day Saudi Arabia and the big boys of middle East will start siding with Rus/China is the day will start calling them a dictator regime.
We know their tricks, Na Africans like una be oponu that they can use small small talks to deceive.

The west often criticize countries like China and Russia for gross censorship. Zionism has shown that its nothing but a ruse. Just like how they accuse the countries of human right violations.

I don't have the time to be running in circles with you bro

Go online and starts making threats against BAT on social media and see if the DSS won't pay you a visit.

Americans and Britons and many mass media protested against US/UK war in Iraqi, there were massive protest against US wars in Afghanistan and Vietnam, oya tell Russians to protest against the war in Ukraine, even referring to the conflict in Ukraine as a war is a crime in Russia

I don't have the time to start another round of profit less debates.

You do know just ten nuclear warheads are enough to reduce half the population of the world, right?

Don't forget the radioactive aftermath death toll is usually higher than the casualties from the actual blast.

Abi we go need argue this one again?
Unless you are finishing for argument, I don't think so.
I get that, but what's the essence of Russia having more than 6k nuclear warheads and US having more than 5k, when you only need just 20 nuclear warheads to destroy the entire world?

Destruction is relative.




The Chicxulub asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs had a 70+ teraton (70,000 gigaton) yield.
The collective energy release of all nuclear bombs on the planet today is less than 5 gigatons.

The true destructive power of nukes is the devolution cascade.
If you take out the top 20 metropolises on the planet, humanity will face a societal collapse.
That's the threat. By the likes of Pakistan and Israel that are incapable of winning conventional wars against peer states.
The likes of the US and Russia (and soon China) expand the list to the top 300+ metropolises.




Humanity will recover from an all-out nuclear exchange.
There will inevitably be a period of instability.
The duration and post-period population is anyone's guess.

To put this in perspective.
The vast majority of Nigeria's entire reserve of $40B is domiciled in US banks.
If New York is decommissioned, there goes our banking system.
The US will retaliate and there goes Chinese commercial centers and the global supply chain.
Can't buy stuff. Even if you kept gold bars in your safe, there would be scarcity.

All generals on the planet would be thinking about carving out their fiefdoms in non-irradiated parts of the globe.
The nuclear blast may not kill you, but your QoL will drop drastically that you could become a casualty of second order effects.

Assad left power and it has led to an attack on Iran and the Lebanese government demanding Hezbollah disarm which has kicked off 4 days of protests and a scramble to stave off a civil war/war with Syria.
You take out the top decision-making cities on the planet and there's no telling how it'll affect you.
Do you expect Nigerian generals to take orders from a "president" after the P5 become incapable of force projection?




The Israelis call it the Samson Option and the Pakistani general is talking about taking half of humanity down with them.
Samson only took out a building, not the entire State of Philistine.

The silver lining of a murder-suicide by any of the nuclear powers is that the world will genocide that country and its nationals regardless of where they are or escape to.

I take these threats about as serious as I take the threat of a truly global pandemic that wipes out most of the earth's population.
Plan accordingly.
The possibility may appear remote, but we've had lots of eras with mighty powers.
This era will be no different. When sh*t comes to a head, the Nuclear 9 (+ a handful of breakout states like Japan, Germany, SK, Iran) will decapitate each other and new geopolitical powers will emerge from the ruins.




To wrap, yea, it is possible that 20 nukes can destroy modern civilization.
Pray you don't find out. Our progenies likely will though.

dermmy:
Another British F35 has made an emergency landing in Japan happening just about two months when another made emergency landing in India
The one that got grounded in India was a real nut case.

The specialists they flew in from Britain could not repair it, as such that they had to dismantle the plane piece by piece to take it home.

Very embarrassing.

⚡On August 15, Trump and Putin will meet in Alaska a place that once linked the US and USSR in the middle of WW2.

Back then, the Soviets built over 143,000 planes of their own. The US chipped in another 14,126 through Lend-Lease which is about 10% of the total Soviet wartime fleet.

Almost 8,000 of those American planes came through the Alaska–Siberia route (ALSIB). US pilots flew them up to Fairbanks, handed them over to Soviet crews, and those crews took them across the Bering Strait into Siberia, straight to the Eastern Front.

Fairbanks even has a monument to those Soviet pilots, put up in 2006.

A long conversation with the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi. We discussed in detail all important issues, both of bilateral cooperation and of the diplomatic situation in general.

We also spoke in detail about sanctions against Russia. I emphasized that it is necessary to limit the export of Russian energy resources, particularly oil, in order to reduce its potential and ability to finance the continuation of this war.

The Soviet-era republican borders are confirmed as the recognized borders of the independent states.

Both sides pledge to respect each other’s sovereignty, territorial integrity, border inviolability, and political independence.

No territorial claims now or in the future; no actions undermining territorial integrity or political unity.

No use or threat of force, no interference in internal affairs, and no allowing third parties to use their territory for force against the other.

After exchanging ratification documents, the two countries will establish diplomatic relations in line with the 1961 and 1963 Vienna Conventions.

⚡Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Monday warned against capitulating to the demands of Vladimir Putin ahead of talks this week between the Russian leader and US President Donald Trump.

“Russia refuses to stop the killings, and therefore must not receive any rewards or benefits. And this is not just a moral position — it is a rational one. Concessions do not persuade a killer,” he said in a statement published on social media.
