Nope he didn't bend the knee. In international politics nobody is your friend and nobody is your enemy all you have to do is play smart.

If Nigeria can get heip from the US and still do business with China I think it is a win win situation for us. So far they are not setting up base, they said they need refueling spot that is no problem.

Befriend the two world power while you rise.
From refuelling spot to base to making demands to deport Chinese. Guess what China won't do Jack. Iran and Venezuela are case studies. Australia has revoked port it sold to China. What will China do other than issue strongly worded statement. Australia did so at request of America.

From "training and support" to sending thousands of troops.
It's a small number, if we want them gone then we should put an end to the insurgency quickly then they won't have any more reason to be here.

The insurgency have lasted over a decade. We didn't need them then, we don't need them now.

The longer they stay the more danger we'll be exposed to.

Alot of you will find out soon.

⚡According to shipping data, there are at least 150 tankers waiting outside the Strait of Hormuz.

The UKMTO has said a vessel north of Oman and east of the strait "has been struck by an unknown projectile above the waterline"

Another one for the Jewish aerial assets can't operate in Iranian airspace!!

Let Iran keep destructing residential buildings, hotels and airports while the Jews take out military targets

Take out the launchers then the missiles stockpiles are useless!!
This is the real meaning of "decisive strike". Not some aimless barrages at civilian structures.

⚡Iranian National Security Council Secretary Ali Larijani:

To the countries of the region: We are not seeking to attack you.

But when the bases located in your country are used against us, and when the United States carries out operations in the region relying on these forces, then we will target those bases.

For these bases are not part of the land of those countries; rather, they are American soil.

To be fair, some Chinese has been found to be involved some illegal activities especially as regards to some actions of non state actor especially in sokoto so these claim are not just random, though I won't say these actions are sponsored by the Chinese government .
So yeah they have reason to be concern.

Though the US real move is force Nigeria to deal more with the US than China, I don't think that can happen broadly as China goods are China so we can only deal only on some critical ec
Sector like energy, defense etc.

Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by WriterrNg:
⚡Iran's Airport War is a Strategy to Crippling the Gulf's Aviation Revenue Engines used to fund the war on Iran.

Iran's retaliation against the US-Israeli strikes that killed Khamenei extended beyond sea ports to airports. Amid the missile barrages, Tehran targeted aviation hubs with the same precision. Confirmed hits included Dubai International (world's busiest international airport, concourse damaged, four staff injured), Abu Dhabi Zayed International (one killed, seven injured from drone debris), Kuwait International (terminal struck), and Erbil International in Iraq (drone intercepted but targeted). Explosions rocked Doha Hamad, Riyadh King Khalid, Manama, and Amman airspace, with most intercepted but chaos ensuing.


This is calculated economic sabotage. Dubai International generated 45 billion dollars in economic impact last year, powering Emirates and flydubai fleets that connect the Gulf to 200 cities. Abu Dhabi Zayed is Etihad's fortress, central to UAE tourism diversification. Kuwait International and Erbil serve as regional connectors for oil executives and cargo. Riyadh and Doha are SWF-backed prestige projects, with Hamad designed to eclipse Dubai.

The strategic logic is simple. Airports are on of the Gulf's post-oil cash cows: 130 billion dollars in annual revenue across UAE, Qatar, Saudi hubs alone. They employ hundreds of thousands, anchor tourism, and fund sovereign wealth vehicles. Trump vowed to annihilate Iran's navy. Iran replied by attacking the aviation infrastructure that funds US-aligned regimes.


Missiles do not need to level runways to win. A single drone debris strike closes airspace, cancels 1,800 flights, strands 100,000 passengers, and spikes insurance 500%. Dubai shut for 48 hours costs Emirates 100 million dollars daily. Qatar Airways loses Doha connectivity. Riyadh's Vision 2030 tourism targets evaporate amid smoke plumes.

Ben Gurion in Israel closed amid missile waves over Tel Aviv; Aqaba in Jordan saw intercepts near its runway; Baghdad and Basra airspaces locked down. Iraq's Erbil, hosting US assets, drew direct fire. Oman stayed untouched, preserving its mediator status.


Iran knows full destruction invites total war. Selective hits plus airspace panic suffice. Global carriers reroute via Istanbul or Europe, eroding Gulf hub status. Flydubai bleeds market share. SWFs like Mubadala face aviation portfolio writedowns. The multiplier hits harder than any warhead.

Tehran exposed the gulf vulnerability. Gulf airports are not just travel nodes. They are financial behemoths now repriced as war risks. Operation Epic Fury razes missile sites. Iran's airport doctrine razes revenue certainty. One carries headlines. The other carries balance sheets.

I already feel sorry for any gulf state that launches anything at Iran. Iran is not hitting oil infrastructure for now, just sit tight and pay for your crimes, don’t make a stupid mistake that’ll cost you billions.

Their end goal is not occupation, they are trying counter Russia and Chinese move in the region. Everybody has their own tactics, Russia has gain foothold in many African countries with the aid of coup, China is using candy and kids tactics and is trying to come back using any method necessary. They know Nigeria is made up religious sentimental fools hence they play the religious card.

For now the internet in Iran is still on. I know a lot of 🤡🤡 are in shock because we’re seeing less impact sites compared to the 12 days war.

Let’s break it down for 🤡🤡, the west is using hundreds of planes and missiles from ships to attack but the destruction is less compared to 12 days war.

Am guessing air defence are working or logistics has been disrupted, I don’t know which but it doesn’t look good for our shock and awe 🤡🤡.
Weve said it already. Iran will take its worst punishment within the first four days or week at most. It's like they have not learned anything from America's encounter with the Houthis. Israel's air defense is almost gone now, and the missiles are still coming nonstop.

I don't know why Iran is not decomissioning the oil and water infrastructure in the whole region though. Maybe dem dey fear retaliation.

I for one don't support their presence because it is only going into the hand of the terrorist because they will now believe they are fighting America and will help them sell their ideology.

Compared to Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries, Iran is far more capable.

Let's give them their flowers, they have tried.

American tech is not Saudi tech. There's no such thing as Saudi technology but I'm sure you've heard of Iranian technology many times.
yes I agree with you but because you can do some damages doesn't mean you can play in the big league.

In teal,c of sg1 voice. "I think that was unwise"
Maybe he wants to go the hero's way. 86 is a great number of years. If his actions were deliberate then expect the war to be a very long one but if it is due to carelessness then expect the war to be over soon.
I thought it was deliberate but for him to host an important meeting with generals there... Hmm

In as much as I knew this was going to happen, I'm really pissed with him. The dude comfortably sat inside his office knowing well what was coming. Zelensky fled into his bunker for 2+ years once the war started. And this was even though Russia wasn't trying to kill him.

Meanwhile, the Ayatollah knows he is on the menu. He knows very well they're about to start a war, and for some reason, he was in his office. I won't be surprised if he was even having a meeting because it's their pattern.

Iran is just too careless. The last time, it was their president losing his life while flying in a US-made helicopter. At the beginning of the 12-day war, many of their top politicians and generals were killed inside their condos knowing well a war was coming.

Even Americans generals commanding this current war are most likely in bunkers by now despite knowing they won't be attacked. Trump too is most likely in a bunker. He rarely talks lately, has not made any public appearance, and the speech he gave announcing the war, was performed in front of a curtain, which don't give off his location. Nethanyahu himself has likely fled Israel.

Meanwhile, the Ayatollah remained inside his house and decided to be a martyr. If he was really interested in being a martyr, he should have resigned to become one.

It appears this idea of "martyrdom" is starting to affect these people. Even if you want to be a martyr, make sure to go with a bang. Make your enemy lose something too. Not you losing your life and calling it martyrdom. I totally understand if an underdog nation or group promotes martyrdom, but a powerful nation like Iran? nah, they left that stage long ago.
You have said it all bro. It's a very idiotic thing to do
