Mr righteousness! I understand that organized religion has conquered your capacity for rational thinking , but how it is possible that a human being can live with so much hate for a fellow human being as much as you do is beyond me.

Righteousness2:
When you see leaders of so called sophisticated nations using their hands to destroy themselves, you understand that when an individual or Nation ISOLATE GOD ALMIGHTY, their sense of reasoning depreciates retrogressivly.


Britain on a SUICIDAL Path

The British Home Secretary announced that students from Gaza will be given a fast-track visa process to study in the UK.


Good luck with that!

The biggest mistake Iran will ever make is to give up their nuclear program. Any country that doesn't have nuclear weapon will always be defenceless against countries that do. And the fact that Israel could just wake up one morning and attack them should be a wake up call.
For example, Russia only attacks Ukraine with impunity because they don't have a nuclear weapon. While Pakistan is only safe from India because they have nuclear weapon.

Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein only lost their lives because they gave up their nuclear program while Kim Jung un is only left alone because he has one. You see the trend?

So for the Iranians to give up their nuclear program, means they are very draft and they haven't learnt their lesson, which am sure they aren't.

I support no one, certainly not Hamas. Since i left religion, I started seeing the sanctity of every human life regardless of the god they serve. So when you say you will be happy if a city of 2 million human beings is turned into a desert, it certainly makes me feel sad that a fellow human is capable of feeling that way.

Ten06:
It seems that my comment really gave you serious pain. That is what I wanted to achieve, because your support for hamas and their terrorism should have a limit

This one too na human being like this. Religion really do una something.

Ten06:
There are people who will be happy and satisfied if Isreal can turn Gaza to desert, free of terrorist. Person like me is among

It never ceases to amaze me how nairalanders are always sympathetic to Ukraine when they are attacked by Russia but you get the exact opposite reaction when Israel attacks Gaza.

You just have to come to nairaland comment section and see how much religious inductrinations have sucked out every drop of humanity away from its followers.

And there are people who still think he is only rich because he came from a rich family or the government singled him out and gave him wealth

The Israeli military says it is calling up about 60,000 reservists ahead of a planned ground offensive to capture and occupy all of Gaza City.


An Israeli military official said five divisions would be involved in the planned offensive
The Israeli military says it is calling up about 60,000 reservists ahead of a planned ground offensive to capture and occupy all of Gaza City.

A military official said the reservists would report for duty in September and that most of the troops mobilised for the offensive would be active-duty personnel.

They added that troops were already operating in the Zeitoun and Jabalia areas as part of the preparations for the plan, which Defence Minister Israel Katz approved on Tuesday and will be put to the security cabinet later this week.

Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza City are expected to be ordered to evacuate and head to shelters in southern Gaza.

Many of Israel's allies have condemned the plan, with French President Emmanuel Macron warning on Wednesday that it "can only lead to disaster for both peoples and risks plunging the entire region into a cycle of permanent war".

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) meanwhile said further displacement and an intensification of hostilities "risk worsening an already catastrophic situation" for Gaza's 2.1 million population.

Israel's government announced its intention to conquer the entire Gaza Strip after indirect talks with Hamas on a ceasefire and hostage release deal broke down last month.

Mediators Qatar and Egypt are trying to secure an agreement before the offensive begins and have presented a new proposal for a 60-day truce and the release of around half of the 50 hostages held in Gaza, which Hamas said it had accepted on Monday.

Israel has not yet submitted a formal response, but Israeli officials insisted on Tuesday that they would no longer accept a partial deal and demanded a comprehensive one that would see all the hostages released. Only 20 of them are believed to be still alive.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a statement that orders calling up 60,000 reservists were issued on Wednesday as part of the preparations for "the next phase of Operation Gideon's Chariots" - the ground offensive that it launched in May and has seen it take control of at least 75% of Gaza.

In addition, 20,000 reservists who had already been called up would receive a notice extending their current orders, it added.

The military official said senior commanders had approved the plan for what they described as a "gradual, precise and targeted operation in and around Gaza City", with troops entering some areas where they had not gone previously.

Five divisions were expected to take part in the offensive, the official added.

The Haaretz newspaper quoted Defence Minister Katz as saying on Tuesday: "Once the operation is completed, Gaza will change its face and will no longer look as it did in the past."

He also reportedly approved a plan to "accommodate" Gaza City residents in the south of the territory, including the coastal al-Mawasi area, where the military official said field hospitals would be established.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said the military's objectives are to secure the release of all the hostages held by Hamas and "complete the defeat" of the Palestinian armed group.

The IDF also announced on Wednesday that the Givati Brigade had resumed operations in the northern town of Jabalia and on the outskirts of Gaza City, where it said they were "dismantling military infrastructures above and below ground, eliminating terrorists, and consolidating operational control".

It said civilians were being told to move south for their safety "to mitigate the risk of harm".

A spokesman for Gaza's Hamas-run Civil Defence agency, Mahmoud Bassal, told AFP news agency on Tuesday that the situation was "very dangerous and unbearable" in the city's Zeitoun and Sabra neighbourhoods, where he said "shelling continues intermittently".

The agency reported that Israeli strikes and fire had killed 21 people across the territory on Wednesday. They included three children and their parents whose home in the Badr area of Shati refugee camp, west of Gaza City, was bombed, it said.

The IDF meanwhile said 15 Palestinian fighters had attempted to infiltrate one of its positions in the southern city of Khan Younis on Wednesday. The IDF said one Israeli soldier was severely injured and 10 of the attackers were killed during the incident. Hamas's military wing said it had attacked the position and that at least one fighter carried out a suicide bombing.

The UN human rights office said it had recorded 54 Israeli attacks on residential buildings in Gaza City since 8 August
The UN and non-governmental organisations operating in Gaza have warned of the humanitarian impact of a new Israeli offensive.

"The Israeli plan to intensify military operations in Gaza City will have a horrific humanitarian impact on people already exhausted, malnourished, bereaved, displaced, and deprived of basics needed for survival," they said in a joint statement on Monday.

"Forcing hundreds of thousands to move south is a recipe for further disaster and could amount to forcible transfer," they added. Forcible transfer of a civilian population is a serious violation of international humanitarian law.

They also said the areas of the south where displaced residents were expected to move were "overcrowded and ill-equipped to sustain human survival at scale".

The ICRC said on Wednesday that a further intensification of military operations threatened "an irreversible humanitarian crisis" and that the lives of the hostages might also be put at risk. Some of them are believed to be held in Gaza City.

The UN human rights office said hundreds of families had already been forced to flee eastern and southern Gaza City over the past few days, while others reportedly remained trapped, completely cut off from food, water and medical supplies.

It also noted that Israel was telling displaced Palestinians to move to al-Mawasi even though it continued to carry out deadly strikes there.

The World Food Programme meanwhile warned that malnutrition in Gaza had crossed emergency levels and was "rising fast", with more children and mothers showing severe symptoms. The UN agency said it was scaling up treatment but that "needs outpace the response".

Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry also reported that another three people had died as a result of malnutrition over the previous 24 hours, raising the total number of such deaths since the start of the war to 269, including 112 children.

The UN has said it needs unimpeded humanitarian access across all of Gaza, with aid entering at scale through all possible crossings. It has said incoming supplies remain far from sufficient because of Israeli restrictions.

Israeli military body Cogat, which controls the entry of aid into Gaza, said in response to the WFP's statement that hundreds of lorry loads of supplies were being delivered daily and that food prices were "plummeting". It has also previously accused the health ministry of misrepresenting deaths from pre-existing medical conditions as malnutrition.

The Israeli military launched a campaign in Gaza in response to the Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on 7 October 2023, in which about 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were taken hostage.

At least 62,122 people have been killed in Gaza since then, according to the territory's health ministry. The ministry's figures are quoted by the UN and others as the most reliable source of statistics available on casualties.

Going through comments on NL, just makes you realize how much hatred religious inductrinations have implanted in the minds of their followers.

Even animals are not safe from Israel. And the West Bank in question is in Palestinian territory, but Israel is preparing it for further settlement.

CodeTemplarr:
Instead of all these, offer to take in 200,000 selected Gaza elements into Germany. The survival of a monster is what these people are after. Many of Isreal's ally dont wannt to really support them. They are sympathetic to the gaza cause.

Why doesn't Israel take them. You are not much of a human being if you're not sympathetic to the Gaza struggle for survival. If the roles were reversed and Arabs were the ones doing to the Jews what they are now doing to the Palestinians you'll probably have a better realization. Keep religious inductrinations aside and see things with the eyes of a rational human being.

Better late than never. Nevertheless, history will repeat itself. The powerful takes what belongs to the weak, this is human nature, we are not much different from animals as we would like to think. Israel will ultimately annex Gaza and they have the support of one of the most powerful countries in the world. So it's only a matter of time.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is to propose fully reoccupying the Gaza Strip when he meets his security cabinet, Israeli media say.

"The die has been cast. We're going for the full conquest of the Gaza Strip – and defeating Hamas," local journalists quote a senior official as saying.

Responding to reports that the army chief and other military leaders oppose the plan, the unnamed official said: "If that doesn't work for the chief of staff, he should resign."

The families of hostages fear such plans could endanger their loved ones, with 20 out of 50 believed to be alive in Gaza, while polls suggest three in four Israelis instead favour a ceasefire deal to return them.

Many of Israel's close allies would also condemn such a move as they push for an end to the war and action to alleviate a humanitarian crisis.

Within Israel, hundreds of retired Israeli security officials, including former heads of intelligence agencies, issued a joint letter to US President Donald Trump on Monday, calling for him to pressure Netanyahu to end the war.

One of the signatories, ex-domestic intelligence agency chief Ami Ayalon, told the BBC that further military action would be futile.

"From the military point of view, [Hamas] is totally destroyed. On the other hand, as an ideology it is getting more and more power among the Palestinian people, within the Arab street around us, and also in the world of Islam.

"So the only way to defeat Hamas's ideology is to present a better future."

The latest developments come after indirect talks with Hamas on a ceasefire and hostage deal broke down and Palestinian armed groups released three videos of two Israeli hostages looking weak and emaciated.

The footage of Rom Blaslavski and Evyatar David, both kidnapped from the Nova music festival on 7 October 2023, has shocked and appalled Israelis. David is shown digging what he says is his own grave in an underground tunnel.

If this happens, anybody that contest against Tinubu in 2027 should just know he is wasting his money.

Let peace rain. The middle east needs to get it's act together. The Israelis and Muslims have proven to be very violent people, but they both have to realize that none of them is going anywhere for the other.

The British created much of this problem similar to the ones we see in Africa today, through forced marriages of different ethnic and racial groups. How do you create a country inside another man's country.

This is a really interesting development.

Last last dem go still rig election, e nor get as e one be.

sad... these are some of the issues common to the south, there is always those group of people with a sense of entitlement over what does not belong to them and are willing to kill and die for it.
i pray justice shall prevail.

Well, that will depend on your location. recharge card business is a game of numbers as the profit per unit of recharge card is very meagre, it is only in the sale of large numbers will u realize a substantial profit. whatever the case it's a business that needs to be a part of another like pos, soft drinks, groceries, and the likes.

nice write up. Caffeine is overrated and mostly does more harm than good.

This is so beautiful, been on the journey of quitting myself (27 days clean) am so rooting for whoever wrote that.

Lagos Is Second Least Liveable City In The World For 2021

Lagos is the second least liveable city in the world for the year 2021. This is according to the most recent annual ranking put together by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU).

The EIU survey ranked 140 cities based on stability, healthcare, culture & environment, education and infrastructure.

The top five most liveable cities on the EIU list are Auckland, New Zealand; Osaka, Japan; Adelaide, Australia; Wellington, New Zealand and Tokyo, Japan.


The top five least liveable cities on the EIU list are Damascus, Syria; Lagos, Nigeria; Port Moresby, PNG; Dhaka, Bangladesh and Algiers, Algeria.

The Economist Intelligence Unit (The EIU) is the research and analysis division of The Economist Group, the sister company to The Economist newspaper.
Data for the EIU liveability survey was collected from February 22 to March 21 2021.

Some of the key findings include:

The overall global average liveability score has fallen by seven points, as compared with the average pre-pandemic score. The extent to which cities were sheltered by strong border closures, their ability to handle the health crisis and the pace at which they rolled out vaccination campaigns drove significant changes in the rankings.
Auckland, in New Zealand, is at the top of The Economist Intelligence Unit’s Liveability rankings, owing to the city’s ability to contain the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic faster and thus lift restrictions earlier, unlike others around the world.
Six of the top ten cities in the March 2021 survey are in New Zealand or Australia, where tight border controls have allowed residents to live relatively normal lives.
Here is the list of the top 10 most liveable cities for 2021:

Auckland, New Zealand
Osaka, Japan
Adelaide, Australia
Wellington, New Zealand
Tokyo, Japan
Perth, Australia
Zurich, Switzerland
Geneva, Switzerland
Melbourne, Australia
Brisbane, Australia

The 10 least liveable cities for 2021 are:

Damascus, Syria
Lagos, Nigeria
Port Moresby, PNG
Dhaka, Bangladesh
Algiers, Algeria
Tripoli, Libya
Karachi, Pakistan
Harare, Zimbabwe
Douala, Cameroon
Caracas, Venezuela
