Then you didn't watch that video.

The mercenaries said Biafrans were out numbered and out gunned.

Igbos always brag about weapons Biafrans invented during the war, but that video said it was France that supplied them.

I heard Ojukwu in that video say they prepared for that eventuality a long time, so why would blockade, which is a common strategy in warfare, affect them that much?

I said main reason they lost. I did watch video I know they were out gunned. Second I didn't claim they were prepared starvation blockades to civilian population are pretty abnormal.

Ojukwu was prepared to fight Nigeria, he was not prepared to fight Nigeria, Britain and Russia.

The blockade was enforced by British Warships. If it hadnt been for that blockade, Ojukwu would have been able to sell Oil, import food and armaments and win the war

It's called allies.
Who were his allies?

He didn't consider that before going to war?

Bible says he that wants to build a house must first count the cost.

Check history, even in the bible blockades ( siege) does not differentiate between civilian and combatant population. So that is not an excuse.

Countries are not generally allowed to interfere in the domestic affairs of another. What Britain did by imposing a blockade on the sovereign waters if another was illegal.

Freedom is one thing that has no high or low cost. You just strive to get it no matter what.

It's like you are not conversant with the art of warfare.

In war, if I am your ally I do every thing to make you win the war.

Forget sentiments.
