I know that it is a lie but i was just trying to use logic to challenge his unconsciuos mind it might be hard but there was no harm trying. The Nazi used this style where they repeat a lie several thousand times sometimes in a large gathering sometimes individually. This becomes the truth later on this was used in the world war II.

@Noblezone and Chidichris

I have read your posts and you should be given a medal in defamation. You claim nigeria is a fraud you asked what is a fraud. A fraud is a lie that benefits somebody or a group of people.
Who is Nigeria (a group of people) defrauding?

Can you say 200 million is a Fraud? If Americans or ghanaians say same would that be right.

You talked about Obasanjo you Accuse him of stealing 16 billion Dollars Nobody has said it officially that he stole 16 billion. Even if we nigerians are all apes there is no way one man can steal $16 billion in nigeria.

Obasanjo has enemies from his family, tribe and accross Nigeria but no one can bring corruption to his face. We are seeing what and Army of just 3 million internet scammers are doing to the image of nigeria, if you add your grouping it will be a larger war. 

I know you are disillusioned with Nigeria but put on your thinking caps and let us reason and engineer socially our thoughts about Nigeria. The Parasitic Elites need people like you that have no hope. You are in the army of millitant disillusioned few.

You are somewhat right. This classification of Nigeria as a terrorist state (or something to that effect) may not have taken place under ObJ's watch. Virtually anybody can piss on Nigeria's head as of today because of its very complacent leadership or lack of leadership. Shame.
So you mekus of people can say something like this.

We were looking away from nigeria now we see you can escape Nigeria.   Oh really you say I would just get an American passport and throw away the Nigerian one. What if Muttallab lived in america and had an american passport? Dont get it all wrong any terrorist can use a USA passport.

@question of poster

The answer to the question is not singular

The creation of any terrorist Stems from the search of TRUTH. Some Nigerians are tired of the life of LIES. Some seek genuine answers to their questions some of kids grow in very rigid circles(social fortresses) that have no single answer to the Social injustices.

Nigeria has about over 40 million youths majority of these youths are exposed to all kinds of social PROGRAMMING. I can say with confidence that NIGERIA DOES NOT HAVE A SOCIAL DEFENCE because we have a serious social Identity issue.

Our Churches are doing more harm than good when the emphasize is on get and getting.
The Islamic teaching is based on making the religion of the state ISLAM.

This is the battle of different social Psyche of what we have as Nigeria today. That is why a man from Cameroun can come from outside and make Nigerian muslim Kill his own brother.


what we must do is to create a youth convention core that would be based on sharing and love for Nigerian first. We need to build a new people based on love. Even if we want to make Islam the state religion let us do so in love. In making wealth let us make the greatest weaith man happy and prosperous.

This is what gave birth to minds like Abdul Farouk. Some people think that we are ROBOTS, Once we are born as Yoruba or Igbo Or hausa We are just programmed to behave like they we are HOPED to Behave.

SOME PEOPLE BELIEVED THAT WE LIKED ENJOYMENT AND I CAN HEAR IN THE HEADS OF PEOPLE SAY THEY WERE SURPRISED THAT WE NIGERIANS LIKE ENJOYMENT, WHAT DO THEY MEAN BY ENJOYMENT. WE HATE EACH OTHERS TO HELL AND WE CLAIM WE LIKE OURSELVES? WHO DO YOU ENJOY WITH? CAN YOU ALLOW A HAUSA DOCTOR TREAT YOU? WE HAVE BUILT GATES AS THOUGH WE LIVE IN ENCLAVES. THERE IS TRIBAL APRATHEID IN NIGERIA THE HATRED MOST STOP NOW. LET THE MODERATORS ON NAIRALAND BEGIN TO WEED OUT HATE MESSAGES.

Just look at the Stereotypes we have below

In Nigeria if you are Rich You stole money, you are a drug dealer or you are a 419er
In Nigeria if you are Hausa and rich (even worse) You are illiterate a social misfit and your father and all your Generation caused the poverty in Nigeria.

2) Some tribes are cowards
3) Some tribes like money more than human beings
4) Some tribes are backwards
5) some tribes are lazy

I dont know why it is difficult for you to understand. I have said categorically that the boy was wrong. you claimed that i said that he did it FOR Nigeria, i asked you where i said he did it for nigeria you have not provided it.

The main theme of my article is that all us are guilty of CREATING THIS BOY he is a NIGERIAN. You see that is the problem with Nigeria. SOME PEOPLE BELIEVE OTHER PEOPLE HAVE CHOICES. THE FACT IS THAT SOME PEOPLE SEE RIGHT IN THE CHOICES THEY MAKE. IF A CHILD SEES THAT THE CHOICE HE MAKES WOULD GRANT HIM SALVATION THAT CHILD WOULD TAKE THAT CHOICE EVEN IF HE WOULD DIE AT THE END, THIS IS WHAT IS CALLED MIND PROGRAMMING.

THE TERRORIST RECRUITERS KNOW A POTENTIAL YOUTH TERRORIST WHEN HE BEGINS TO ASK QUESTIONS.

I NEVER SAID HE WAS FIGHTING FOR NIGERIA. HE WAS CREATED BY NIGERIA AND POLISHED UP BY THE MASTERMINDS.


@bilymuse
that naughty person has no right killing Innocent people in the name of any belief. His father and the rest of his family are among the elites who destroyed Nigeria, he should blow them up.

You and I billymuse are the murderers because we assasinate people characters. kill generations yet unborn we tribally execute them and give them no space to express their desires.

My brother the young ones you go through conscious brain washing where you can watch days of movies of how the Jews kills palestinaians you will say what concerned farouk in that matter right ?

I will tell you how they could have possibly linked farouk and how they could have indoctrinated before the start of the brainwashing

1) In islam there is an Imaginary state called the Ummar
2) The state is protected by the warriors or mujahids where you the Jamar almuminim and almuminat as citizen
3) The enemy of that (Ummar) (the borderless Islamic state)  is Isreal and  Isreal = America
4) America takes oil from the middle east and supports Isreal to kill muslims
5) America lied that Iraq was building weapon of mass destruction and America killed so many muslims that were Innocent
6) America is satan and the infidel (Alkafri) headquaters so THEY as defenders of the Ummar must defend the state from infidels  ( there is a part where the quran states that they the muslim must strike at the very heart of the infidel)
7) There is a prophesy in Islam and this is about the belief that all the world would be muslim (kulu allah ) or something like that,
8 ) The perfect law of  allah is the Sharia we cannot have a perfect state without Sharia and to practice sharia we must be 100% muslim




I have said it and i will say that it again not untill we love ourselves we would be shocked at what will happen to us. I just saw on Tv that some nigerians claim we like life and enjoyment. and what is wrong if someone brainwashes some young kids with the 8 or more facts i have stated above with the promise of heaven and 72 virgins is it not the same PERCEIVED ENJOYMENT?

PoliticsRe: Detroit Terror Suspect: The Nigeria Connection (Time Magazine) by rethink: 9:47pm On Dec 27, 2009
Detroit Terror Suspect: The Nigeria Connection
By Steven Gray / Detroit Saturday, Dec. 26, 2009

Who is Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab? Federal authorities say the man suspected of trying to detonate explosives on Northwest Flight 253 as it neared Detroit was a 23-year-old engineering student at University College London. They say he is a Nigerian citizen and he has reportedly said he was on a mission for al-Qaeda and that he had received instructions from Yemen. On Saturday, Abdulmutallab was charged with attempting to destroy the aircraft and with placing a destructive device on the plane. (Read "Nigeria Banker Fears Son is Alleged Plane Attacker"wink

While authorities caution that it is too early to conclude anything about the substance of Abdulmutallab's reported claims, Yemen has recently been at the focus of U.S. concerns about the expansion of al-Qaeda; and Nigeria is struggling with Islamist insurgencies.

The Nigerian connection is especially troubling because, if the al-Qaeda link is true, then the huge west African country, which is sharply divided between Muslims and Christians, may indeed have become a new recruiting ground for the cause of Osama bin Laden — a situation western officials have been concerned about for some time. Furthermore, the oil-rich yet impoverished sub-Saharan African sits on a religious fault line, its 150 million people split almost evenly between Muslims in the north and Christians in the south. Bin Laden is widely admired in the arid Muslim north. It has become fashionable for some Muslims to name their sons after him, while his picture adorns T-shirts and posters. (Read "Terror on Flight 253: Does it Fit al-Qaeda's Pattern?"wink

As TIME's Alex Perry wrote in July 2009, over the past few years, young Nigerian Muslim activists, most of them educated and from the middle class, have aggressively embraced a stricter version of Islam, rejecting anything Western and Christian. In the middle of 2009, the government cracked down hard on one group nicknamed the Nigerian Taliban, officially called Boko Haram, killing its leader and scores of his followers. Boko Haram had begun life in 2001 as a peaceful group focused on the study of the Koran, according to Abdulmumin Sa'ad, a Muslim scholar and professor of sociology at the University of Maiduguri. "The idea was that there is a lot of sin in the larger society and their parents had amassed a lot of ill-gotten wealth," says Sa'ad, who taught some of the militants. Boko Haram may have been quelled but the sentiments that gave it impetus remain very active in Nigeria.

In that regard, the Associated Press reported that a prominent Nigerian banker named Alhaji Umaru Mutallab said Saturday that he was meeting with security officials there because he feared his son was the suspect. "I believe he might have been to Yemen, but we are investigating to determine that," Mutallab told the AP. The Nigerian newspaper This Day reported Saturday that Abdulmutallab had been known for having extremist religious views since attending high school at the British International School in Lome, Togo, saying he had the nickname "Alfa," a local term for an Islamic scholar. The newspaper also cited family sources as saying that after Abdulmutallab left university in London, he relocated to Egypt and then Dubai, where he cut ties with his family. (See how Nigeria is struggling with its Islamist insurgencies.)

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab apparently wrote on visa documents that he was traveling to the U.S. for a religious ceremony. On Friday afternoon, Rep. Peter King, the ranking Republican on the House Homeland Security Committee, said in television interviews that Abdulmutallab's name had appeared in databases as having a connection to terrorists. It is still unclear how long he had lived in London, or when he had lived in Nigeria.

Little is known thus far about Abdulmuttalab's time in London, aside from the fact he was believed to be a former engineering student at the prestigious University College London. The university issued a statement Saturday saying that a student by the name of "Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab" had been enrolled in the mechanical engineering course at the school from September 2005 to June 2008, although it stressed that it could not confirm the student was the same man being questioned in Detroit. In his interview with the AP, Alhaji Umaru Mutallab said his son had been a university student in London but had left Britain to travel abroad. He said his son had not lived in London "for some time" but he wasn't sure exactly where he had gone. (See how al-Qaeda is creating a crisis in Yemen.)

British intelligence and police officials also delved into Abdulmutallab's background Saturday, trying to piece together clues about his activities and associations during his three years in London. Officers from Metropolitan Police focused their attention on a seven-story mansion block in a well-to-do area of central London, conducting a search of a basement [size=18pt]apartment[/size] owned by the Mutallab family near the university — reported to be worth $4 million — where the suspect, if he is indeed the son of the Nigerian banker, once lived. Home Secretary Alan Johnson didn't release any details of the search, saying only that London police are "working with their American colleagues on the investigation to uncover the full background to the incident."

The incident occurred about 11:30 Christmas morning, as Northwest Airlines flight 253, carrying 278 passengers from Amsterdam, was on its final descent into Detroit's international airport. According to the FBI affidavit, a few minutes before the events began, Abdulmutallab went into the bathroom for about 20 minutes then, upon returning to his seat, complained that he had an upset stomach and put a blanket over himself. Suddenly, passengers heard a loud pop, and then saw smoke, and flames, coming from row 19. "What are you doing? What are you doing?" one woman shouted toward the man, later identified a Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab. A male passenger leaped toward Abdulmutallab and pulled him to the floor. Flight attendants apparently rushed to the scene with fire extinguishers. One flight attendant reportedly asked Abdulmutallab what he had, to which he allegedly replied "explosive device." According to the FBI complaint, one passenger saw the remains of a partially melted syringe in Abdulmutallab's possession and took it away from him, shook it to stop it from smoking and threw it on the floor of the aircraft. Abdulmutallab was then placed in a headlock and pulled into the first-class section. "He didn't show any reaction to pain, any feeling of shock or nervousness," one female passenger who sat across from Abdulmutallab told television reporters after the plane landed, shortly before noon. Abdulmutallab was taken to a hospital in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

The FBI has described the material apparently used in the syringe as PETN (also known as pentaerythritol), which it called a "high explosive." PETN is an ingredient in Semtex plastic explosives; it was also reportedly used by the "shoebomber" Richard Reid in his abortive Christmas 2001 terror attempt. Rep. King said the device was "somewhat sophisticated," and was more than a firecracker, and that "it should have been detected." Federal officials swiftly called the incident an attempted act of terrorism. President Obama, vacationing in Hawaii, ordered strengthened security on international flights. The Department of Homeland Security said it had amplified screening measures. (See how religious violence is tearing at Nigeria's fabric.)

It's unclear why Abdulmutallab chose the flight to Detroit. The city's airport is the 13th busiest in North America, and is the hub for Northwest and Delta airlines. Since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, federal authorities have intensified security along the bridges and tunnels that connect Detroit to Windsor, Ontario.

I am not sure what you are getting at here but let me try to take a stab at it anyway. If you are talking of person wanting to die, I am good with that subject. It is clear as day that he was NOT affected by the Nigerian situation you postulated as cause for this action of his, in your starting post there.  For one
a)   He did not grow up poor, he had all the money so we could say the Nigerian SITUATION skipped him or he skipped that completely
Yes you are right he was not poor BUT  he had eyes and would have seen the massive suffering in the peoples or the north he would have also seen that the same poverty happens in the south.

RUBBISH!!!! Utter RUBBISH!!! Even a demented soul can clearly see that his action was NOT to win over people like you and I, who you claim saw him and his family and his tribe as the problem.
You said I CLAIM  NOW LOOK AT YOUR OWN POST AND SEE THAT IT IS NOT JUST A CLAIM BY ME

It is clear this coward does not see the problem or else he would have started by blowing up his own father and friends for stealing from Nigeria.
You cant hide the hatred you have for a Nigerian. Yes they are northerners and Nigerians.


This would have made sense to me if this man was a poor, uneducated cattle rearer or hausa boy or something. Stop trying to COMPARE him with them. You FAIL in whatever point you try to make when you do so. Poor people who are trained to do this usually do it because they are promised a better life for self or family. This one had money and great prospects, opportunities available to him. He was NOT POOR!!
Exactly what I am saying MONEY IS NOT EVERYTHING. It is not everybody that is motivated by Cash people are tired of the way things are. Some people take bribe for years at there work place and they are tired of that we are not all robots. It is not about money. If you know a little about Child Psychology you would appreciate that MONEY IS NOT EVERYTHING. OSAMA BIN LADDEN WAS RICH HE CAME FROM A RICH FAMILY WHY IS HE BOMBING AMERICA? He being "rich" made him a better target.

What are you yapping about? Millitants? This boy is NOT FIGHTING FOR NIGERIA!!! He is not even FIGHTING FOR THE HAUSA people. He did not FIGHT THE Nigerian elites here. He went after an American plane to blow it up
Yes he did not need to fight the Nigerian Elites. why because his mind was made to believe that the root cause of the problem was America this is what hatred that seeks expressive Action can cause, only love can defeat this. if he was told that you (Kobojunkie) were the problem with a promise of heaven in (Alikiamo or Alijana) with 72 virgins he will do it.

How in the world does that directly or indirectly better then lives and lots of the poor men back home? Please snap out this stupidity and attack issues AS THEY REALLY ARE in your response.
I will snap out when we begin to love and show our peoples love no matter where they come from.

Our “YOUTHS” are mostly poor and cowardly individuals who are UNWILLING TO DIE on the most part for anything. This one was not even considering to organize those.

As if i knew what is in the heads of some people here.

@kobojunkie

if he was happy and loved his father and his country would he have decided to blow himself up? It is not all about money. This is why we will keep losing our youths. There are people that are ready to die for their conviction. If it was money you yourself said it he had it, so what would make him want to die and take people along.

THE ANSWER

He had lost self worth he knew people like you and i saw him his family and his tribe as the problem he did not have the power to solve the problem. He was wrong, Does that mean we should also be wrong?

Does blowing up a plane headed to america really help any Nigerian?
There are so many poor people that are being trained to blow themselves up what would you say to that? Some of them are dissillusioned by some Nigerians (militant few), the love temperature is very low in Nigeria. We now consciously and unconsciuosly hate each other Astronomically and a YOUNG mind that seeks to solve this problem genuinely when he meets hateful minds as we have on Nairaland he becomes Dissillusioned and seeks a magical wand.

[size=18pt]SO YOU SEE THIS HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH NIGERIA[/size]

We created all the Criminals, terrorist and sex workers. We cannot escape blame.
