Why is Islam always a willing tool of destabilisation?

They will attack the airbase because it seems of recent the few attacks carried out by the airforce decimated them
The more reason why the air force, and armed forces in general, should've anticipated and prepared for his attack.
It's a failure of intelligence. Terrorist movement should've been tracked or spotted. This way, those metal birds would've been in the sky before the attacks. Except the aircraft grounded or undergoing repairs.

This not only unbelievable but unacceptable.

How will men on bike take over and burn down an airforce base without an insider.

Where are the soldiers on duty? If military barracks and airforce bases can be captured then how safe is the civilian population?

Nigeria Arm forces was well respected and feared by our neighbors in the days of Ecomog, when the had men of steel like Gen. Dogoyaro.

Where are the Generals today? Or have religions and politics have made our General landcruisers SUV Generals, that cruise around town in polo?

Oga please rest !
Defending who and to what end?
Who France help?
If my society better who gains more?
From the conversations so far ,you don't even sound more patriotic than myself.
Colonialism is bad,took us back agreed, no justification for that.
But we are dwelling too much on that while ignoring the most important things moving forward or so it seems to me.
Stop whining! This topic is way above your pay grade.
You are just hyperventilating..
I am not defending anything. I am telling you about the forces that the sahel states and contending with and confronting because of their anti West stands.
If you don't understand how geopolitical tensions are managed across regions of the world on sundry related issues, then you should stop pontificating!

I told you that every evidence suggests that France/Western powers are trying to manipulate the centrifugal forces within these states for geopolitical gains. They are actively trying to bring down these states. You said I should give you examples. I rained examples on you. Now you are saying that I am making excuses. It means you are tone deaf. Facts are FACTS. Excuses are what they are;excuses!

If you are so insensitive as to ignore the enormous dire implications of working at cross corners to western interests in Africa, then you should leave this topic. Obviously, you are out of sort.
These insurgencies predate these regimes and are actually one of the reasons the French forces have been driven out of the Sahel states. Those are the facts.
I am not going to join you to blame a regime that is trying to extract the soul of their nation from the evil grip of some powerful neocolonialists, just because it looks fashionable to throw blames around like confetti. Here is the fact: The sahel states are being attacked by extremist forces associated to western imperialists. Peace will return there only when the western powers start to respect the independence of those West African countries.
Deal with that..

Their usual propaganda to save face. They failed to mention that the Nigerien military dealt a heavy blow to their men: more than 20 terrorists neutralized, including a French national, and about ten captured alive. On Saturday, I learned that intelligence operations were still underway to capture others on Nigerien territory.

From the information released by the government, the attack was targeted at the military base at the airport to destroy their air defence system in order to have free exit to take away precious stones and other solid minerals like uranium out of the country with the help of helicopter undetected but they met their Waterloo
Are you ruling out the fact that these guys hit the airbase very hard? How did they even gain access? What caused the intelligence failure that didn't notice the advancing terrorists until they got to the facility.
In this battle, the terrorists have gained their objectives. The loss of life on their side is collateral damage to them, which they don't mind, as long as they destroyed those aircraft. It's a shame a military government cannot protect a critical asset such as this.
At least, the jet planes should have scrambled as the terrorists advanced and move to other facilities.

We have leaders who are never serious in Africa. No purpose, no concrete plane.

All in their head is how to stay in power, win next electiona, plot different graphs on elections cycle and defections.

Leaving the very core aspect of governance

The west is their problem...

France is behind and sponsoring most of these terrorists attacks!
So the west is also supporting the insurgency in northern Nigeria abi. and the people drilling the minerals in the north are Chinese, but the west is sponsoring terrorism so the Chinese can benefit from the minerals. weldone oga your thinking faculty really needs to be questioned.

Your ability to comprehend, reason and analyze issues and apply logic are damaged.


I spoke about Niger specifically you are asking me about Northern Nigeria. How does my comment insinuate that wherever they is insurgency then it means France is responsible?


My problem is not even your skewed judgements and inability to reason properly and logical reasoning. No.


My problem is how quickly you would insult just to oil your already bruised and faulty faculty just to feel good about yourself though. Meanwhile you are the one way off the mark in applying factual logic.


It really beats me!

What's the context of the verse?

What is meant by fighting in that verse is two things:

1.. Fighting those who want to attack the Muslims in their own lands, and to spread the influence of disbelief and its followers in the Muslim lands. This is Jihad in defence of Muslim territory, and it is something that has occurred in every nation and state known to history, no matter what their religion, otherwise there would be no state and no authority at all.

2.. Fighting those who bar people from the religion of Allah and prevent the Muslims from calling people to the religion of their Lord and spreading His light so that it may be seen by anyone who seeks guidance, or they prevent non-Muslims from learning about this religion or entering it if they want to. This is jihad in pursuit of the enemy. Both types of jihad are prescribed in Islamic teachings.


Compare that verse with the whole of Deuteronomy 20 and see blood! Na scripture be this?

Deuteronomy 20 (NIV)

Going to War
20 When you go to war against your enemies and see horses and chariots and an army greater than yours, do not be afraid of them, because the Lord your God, who brought you up out of Egypt, will be with you. 2 When you are about to go into battle, the priest shall come forward and address the army. 3 He shall say: “Hear, Israel: Today you are going into battle against your enemies. Do not be fainthearted or afraid; do not panic or be terrified by them. 4 For the Lord your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory.”

5 The officers shall say to the army: “Has anyone built a new house and not yet begun to live in it? Let him go home, or he may die in battle and someone else may begin to live in it. 6 Has anyone planted a vineyard and not begun to enjoy it? Let him go home, or he may die in battle and someone else enjoy it. 7 Has anyone become pledged to a woman and not married her? Let him go home, or he may die in battle and someone else marry her.” 8 Then the officers shall add, “Is anyone afraid or fainthearted? Let him go home so that his fellow soldiers will not become disheartened too.” 9 When the officers have finished speaking to the army, they shall appoint commanders over it.

10 When you march up to attack a city, make its people an offer of peace. 11 If they accept and open their gates, all the people in it shall be subject to forced labor and shall work for you. 12 If they refuse to make peace and they engage you in battle, lay siege to that city. 13 When the Lord your God delivers it into your hand, put to the sword all the men in it. 14 As for the women, the children, the livestock and everything else in the city, you may take these as plunder for yourselves. And you may use the plunder the Lord your God gives you from your enemies. 15 This is how you are to treat all the cities that are at a distance from you and do not belong to the nations nearby.

16 However, in the cities of the nations the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes. 17 Completely destroy[a] them—the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites—as the Lord your God has commanded you. 18 Otherwise, they will teach you to follow all the detestable things they do in worshiping their gods, and you will sin against the Lord your God.

19 When you lay siege to a city for a long time, fighting against it to capture it, do not destroy its trees by putting an ax to them, because you can eat their fruit. Do not cut them down. Are the trees people, that you should besiege them?[b] 20 However, you may cut down trees that you know are not fruit trees and use them to build siege works until the city at war with you falls.

Stop hiding behind nonexistent context to cover up.

The verse is very clear. It tells you who to attack, why you should attack them and the condition they must meet before you stop attacking them.

According to the verse, you should attack non-Muslims
Why?! Because they don't accept ala, not because they attack you first.
Condition to stop attacking them: when they accept ala or agree to pay jizya.

The Isleamic lie can't deceive people anymore.

"Bro how on earth are they attacking a military base without resistance, who did we offend in this country.

Are you Nigerien?

'Cause the attack happened in NIGER.

It is your thinking that has a problem. your so called hate for the west hs block ypur sense of reasoning. Check even in Niger it is the chinese currently mining their minerals, you think they can mine it themselves. funny you have never had dealing with any foreigner before in your life. whether from the west or china. because if you have then you will not type what you did.

Deuteronomy 20 is addressing Jews, not Christians. The coming of Jesus Christ puts an end to those laws because Jesus is the fulfilment of the laws! But the deimonic laws in your keuiran and Haddith are still in effect till today.

If you read Siamson story properly instead of piicking verses in d middle, like a decieptiive Isleamic modrar, you would have seen that the people Saimson keiled had been atakiing Israelites long before Samson was born. So, Samson was raised to defiiend Israelites
