stillchris:True. Our airforce currently does not have the capabilities,neither do we have the military manpower to handle simultaneous wars due to BH disturbance. However,I disagree that none of our soldiers will "think of dying" for arab racist "kunts"(as you so eloquently put it); yes,arabs are racist,but soldiers are trained to follow orders,not to act on personnal perception.Moreover,Nigeria once engaged in military action in Lebanon,Lebanon is an arab nation. I think we should wait for confirmation(or denail) of the news. Nigeria is in no way a US foe. |

Perhaps the US is now ready to put boots on ground in Iraq and lebanon,due to the recent advent of the Ruskies to the middle-east.This would explain their sudden need for new allies in engaging ISIL. If Nigeria were to join the fight,there would be numerous benefits for our military,especially in terms of funding and equipment. However,it appears that we are constrained by our own immediate problems,which we must address first before anything else. We also have to determine our foreign policy towards the middle-east,arabs aren't the most black-friendly people out there. Sometime I wonder why some Nigerians even bother to clamour for establishment of a palestinian state; these people are undeserving and ungrateful,we donate funds routinely to put food in their mouths and a roof over their heads out of the goodness of our hearts,but what do we get in return?. Personally,I will advice Buhari to stay out of Iraq and Syria. If we feel like poking a fight,then we better head for Libya instead. |

agaugust:So the fact that the IRST is forward facing means nothing? So the fact that the f22 detects first means nothing? I guess the F22 will totoally not approach from the sides or rear - undetected ![]() Lol - run away coward, run away |

EVarn:I want to believe President Buhari has his reason for fighting ISIS. He must have a good reason reason to leave Libya, Somalia and others to Syria and Iraq. It must have something that will benefit Nigeria on the long. |

agaugust:I cant believe that any man who self proclaimed himself as military researcher can ever fall for this nonsense. Researchers are scientific on their approach and I wouldnt expect them to ever be swayed by any black magic nonsense. Admit that your military is cannibalistic and barbaric and have only done it to achieve their selfish ends by justifying their cruel action on a purported voodoo powers that a victim is said to posses. Your military knows well that even your best science professors in universities across Nigeria are superstitious and the evidence is written everywhere in your nollywood movies. Lastly, UN does not govern the rules of war, Geneva convention is. Killing by beheading in war is disallowed. Use of explosive rounds and utilisation of civil services is disallowed. Your military violated rules of using civilian joint task forces in war and extrajudicial killing has always been the order of the day. So, your military needs to be reformed. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by FighterPilot(m): 6:34am On Sep 30, 2015 |
agaugust:What a feeble excuse. Americans do not commit crimes of beheadings, such is cruel. Crime is not the same and is categorised according to its gravity. That's why you find people who get more harsher capital punishment than others for the crimes which they have committed. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by EVarn(m): 10:26am On Sep 30, 2015 |
iblawi:Undeniably,there will be numerous benefits of being part the ISIL coalition. But I think that we should secure our own immediate neighbourhood{Libya,Mali,Tunisia} first before moving to the middle-east. Why dont we form our own pan-african anti-terrorism coalition,bringing together military powerhouses like Nigeria,Algeria,Egypt,Ethiopia,and perhaps Uganda and others to combat terrorism in Africa?,this would be a right step towards forming the ACSF(African Continental Standby Force). Anyway,President Buhari will have his reasons. |

Has anyone ever stopped to think that Boko Haram has less to do with Jihad and more to do with the Hausa-Fulani Faction loosing power to the Ijaw before they felt their term was through (3 years instead of and that the decline of Boko Haram has more to do with the fact that a Hausa-Fulani faction leader is in power than anything else?Especially since you consider that Goodluck was only in office because of militant action. Explains why religiously moderate Officers in the Army (who are mainly Hausa-Fulani) supporting Boko in the early days? Heavy shit, but something to think about https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONoaqRaIcT0 @Henry120 |

Patchesagain:Like we always say to you strong-head South-Africans, and most of the illiterates around the world who want to discuss Nigeria, or some of the insurrections within, it is simply not black and white. Nigeria has always been, and would continue to be complex. |

EVarn:Nigerian company owned by foreigners. I fail to understand how is that proudly Nigerian company. |

EVarn:That's wrong information. Nampak remains the largest canmaker on the continent. Standard chartered bank only goes into a joint venture with a south African independent can makers. http://www.bdlive.co.za/business/industrials/2015/09/23/nampak-to-make-bottles-in-nigeria-and-ethiopia http://mobi.iol.co.za/#!/article/packagers-ink-r1bn-venture-1.1922472 |

Patchesagain:Of all documentaries and reports about Nigeria written by some ignorant foreigners, this guy seems to know more. And like he rightly said, only Nigerians understand Nigeria. Goodluck could have ended BH but he instead politicized it and waited till election before taking it serious (you also have to consider the fact that we faced sabotage from western powers too because Jonathan refused to play ball regarding some of their colonial policies). And buhari is just feeding off jonathans last minute successes. For the sake of enlightenment you should know that previous Fulani governments too faced islamic insurgencies. 1) Maitatsine during buhari regime in the 80s Lastly, BH is not a Hausa Fulani movement, it's dominated by kanuri. 2) Boko haram uprising during yaradua Both these leaders were very quick and decisive to end it while Jonathan... Well... You know the rest Obasanjo didn't have problems because he appeased the group in the north while fighting in the south at the same time. Because it would have been impossible to fight on both fronts because Nigeria was just recovering from sanctions that had crippled the economy and military. Simply put.. Nigeria is too complex for foreigners to understand. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by FighterPilot(m): 1:35pm On Sep 30, 2015 |
stillchris:Too complex to even understand why their military kills its citizens and behead suspected terrorists in a cruel manner. |

EVarn:Buhari is heading for something, The guy has plans that is not clear to everyone yet. You know how all this generals reason na, Obasanjo is a good example. They claim to be moving left while they are actually moving right. Nigeria is a very complex nation. |

| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by iblawi(m): 1:53pm On Sep 30, 2015 |
FighterPilot:Guy wise up. They didn't kill a suspect, they killed a confirmed terrorist in battle. It's seem you guy really like the way Nigeria was in the past when boko haram was claiming our territory but sorry the story has changed. |
| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by FighterPilot(m): 1:58pm On Sep 30, 2015 |
iblawi:Killed by beheading isn't? The man was killed in an islamic terrorist execution style. How will the world know if he was guilty and only if his killing has been justified on black magic. |

| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by stillchris: 2:06pm On Sep 30, 2015 |
FighterPilot:Dude just shut up. You this shallow fibble minded hypocrite. The whole africa knows that you people (south africans) are the worst barbarians on this continent. we are yet to recover from the worst act of barbarism displayed by you animals and you come here to form saints over a beheaded terrorist. Dude, you people decapitate innocent and hardworking people just because they are foreigners Yet you cry fowl because a terrorist/murderer/ child molester got what he deserved? Is there a worst hypocrite than a south African? |

FighterPilot:And what did my last sentence have to do with your response? Can you explain the correlation? The fact that you chose to carve out a small line out of a reasonable interaction so you could make your usual shallow comment is evidence that you are incapable of sound reasoning.

| Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by FighterPilot(m): 2:30pm On Sep 30, 2015 |
iterator24:The company is owned by foreigners. How many times must I say that. In Kenya they also allowed some small local investment with small insignificant shares into the standard chartedered company. However in South Africa is a 50/50 venture because South Africans are more clever when it comes to handling foreign businesses. |
