The Israeli Defense Forces have yet to comment on the announcement. Tel Aviv and Damascus, that have never signed a peace treaty, have repeatedly exchanged tit-for-tat attacks in bordering areas. According to Syrian SANA state-run agency, the country's air defenses have responded to an Israeli attack near Damascus, a move described as "aggression" by the Arab Republic's government. The IDF have yet to comment on the announcement, however, Haaretz reported, citing sources, that Israeli missiles had targeted a "research center" in the town of Jamraya, located north of Damascus. There have been no immediate reports of casualties or damage as a result of the incident. The media outlet cited social media reports suggesting that three blasts had been heard near Damascus on Wednesday morning. The latest incident takes place less than a day after Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu paid a rare visit to Golan Heights, a disputed area that had been annexed by Tel Aviv during the Six-Day War in 1967 prompting harsh UN condemnation, inspecting the nearby border into Syria. During the visit, he issued a warning, saying, "We seek peace but are prepared for any scenario and I wouldn't suggest to anyone that they test us." The reported attack is not the first time Israeli Defense Forces had been targeting areas near Damascus. Thus, in December, Israeli aviation struck a target near Damascus, prompting the Syrian forces to respond with an anti-aircraft missiles' strike toward IDF jets. Tel Aviv and Damascus, that have never signed a peace treaty, have repeatedly exchanged tit-for-tat attacks in bordering areas, with the latest incident taking place in early January, when the Syrian government army had thwarted three Israeli missile attacks on Damascus countryside. Syria reportedly warned the Israeli side about risks posed by such attacks. Israeli authorities have repeatedly recognized that the country's Air Force had attacked objects in Syria under the pretext of the threat allegedly posed by Lebanese Hezbollah Shiite groups, which has been considered an enemy by Tel Aviv. |
Restoring cold war is like living in the past.. It sounds like Myspace trying to take over again from Facebook... Mission impossible !!! There is new trend going on now and that is Russia in all its ramifications. Anyone ever heard of Ethereum contracts and ICOs using these contracts to generate capital ? New trend. Let me remind Yankees that the brain behind Ethereum is a Russian Guy after the successful achievement of Bitcoins by Satoshi Nakamoto.. Now Facebook I mentioned above has declared war on ICO, set to ban any account promoting ICOs.. This is again another failure of the Empire's last Economic hope. Going against new technology that gives power finally to the masses.. We are such in a very different world now. Same in the military aspect. It's really sad and laughable to watch empire of yesterday die slowly but steadily. I laugh in swahili |
This fantastic cartoon was sent to me by a friend who saw it on Moon of Alabama. I did some looking around and the original might well be from here, I am not sure. Whatever may be the case, it gave me such a laugh (I love the little turd at the bottom) that I had to share it with you. Cheers!

PROPHETmichael:You see where you are an Ode. Who is the father of stealing money and terrorizing everyone in the world ? Your country Nigeria is suffering from Economy war imposed by the U.S.A since the era of IBB.. Only Ode like you will not understand what is going on and that makes you part of the problem of Nigeria but not the solution. Ok. Nigeria has been fighting for its Economic independence since the Economy was shortchaned when the U.S together with its Arab puppet removed Buhari to install IBB. I dont know what you ppl have in ur brain.. Can you answer this Ecomonic 101 question. How come Naira never recovered from the Money IBB borrowed during his puppet era, and OBJ paid back those debt, can you answer why Naira never recovered ?? The arrab league puppet to the hegemony were willing to borrow IBB some money free of charge, why did IBB went to the main master IMF to borrow ? Meanwhile OBJ paid everything back, why Nigeria never recovered still ? If you cannot answer that question then you are the number shithole ode of the decacade.. PROPHETmichael:I said it above, Nigeria's problem is Economic problem ok and if you do not know this, you are part of the problem but not the solution. You have a country that has been fighting all Economic wars. Even Mandela won the shooting war but never won the Economic war but left it to the next generation to fight.. Wonder why S.Africa is part of BRICS ?? Fighting the same war ok. Ode. Nigeria is fighting the same war ok. We just won an Economy oil war impossed by the same terrorist saudi arabia sponsoring the same Boko haram backed by the puppet master the father of all terrorism in the whole world.. U.S Gov,Isreal and UK.. (Anglozionist empire) PROPHETmichael:Another ode talk. How many religious killing do you have in Nigeria ? Compared that to everyday killing of innocent people in the emperior state by the Police alone? Answer ? Except for their boko haram they want you f00l to think it's another religious killing which in fact it's an ideology backed by the same empire who is lossing its war and media narrative everyday and in all front wars. Mind you, GEJ won the proxy war on Boko haram before Buhari took over ok.(That is the highest {No of the dead} form of any proxy war which was hiding under the pretext of religious war to carry out its major objective and it's backed by the same enemy of the state, Nigerian existential threat, the same emperior state, anglozionist empire and their mujadden, takifiri crooks) Ode that knows nothing only think like Ode.. Now the same war has been transfered to another clan, Fulani herdmen. Just the same thing they are doing with ISIS in syria but when ISIS narrative is falling apart, now they are using the Kurds..

by Gilad Atzmon https://ooduarere.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Trump-in-the-doghouse-620x330.jpg Trump’s America is still a superpower. It was supported by no less than eight other countries, including Honduras, Guatemala, Palau, Marshall Islands, Kiribati, Togo, Nauru and southern Sudan and do not forget Israel. The resolution passed with an overwhelming majority of 128-9, the UN General assembly declares the US’ recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel ‘null and void.’ It took Donald Trump a year to reduce American world hegemony into dust. Surely this is not a bad thing. Trump promised to make ‘America Great Again,’ he certainly accomplished the first stage of his mission. For America to be great it better be small and insignificant first. The vote today is a clear message to America and Israel. Sympathy is not running out, it is basically over. |
(Here is the original report, for my evaluation, please see Saker's below RT reports: The Russian President Vladimir Putin has thanked his US counterpart Donald Trump for help in preventing a terrorist attack in St. Petersburg. Data provided by the CIA enabled Russian security services to find and detain terrorists The Russian leader expressed his gratitude in a telephone call, adding that the Russian security services would also always share information with their US colleagues, were they to obtain data on any planned attacks on US soil. Putin also asked Trump to convey his compliments to the CIA director, Mike Pompeo, as well as to the operatives that gathered the information about the terrorists. He said that the data provided by the US was enough to track down and detain the members of the extremist cell. The White House later said in a statement: “President Trump appreciated the call and told President Putin that he and the entire United States intelligence community were pleased to have helped save so many lives.” The White House also confirmed that US intelligence agencies provided Russia with information “concerning a major terror plot in St. Petersburg.” Earlier, the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) arrested the members of a terrorist cell linked to Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) in the Russian city of St. Petersburg. The extremists were planning a series of attacks on public places, including a suicide bombing and an explosion in Kazan’s Cathedral in the center of the city. During the raid, conducted overnight from Wednesday to Thursday, the FSB seized a large amount of explosives, weapons and ammunition and dismantled a bomb-making workshop. The members of the cell that coordinated their plans with IS masterminds abroad were plotting an attack on the Kazan Cathedral in St. Petersburg – one of the most iconic landmarks of the city. Earlier this week, FSB head Aleksandr Bortnikov reported foiling a terrorist plot which would have involved bombings during the New Year celebrations and the upcoming presidential election campaign. The schemes also involved a cell with links to IS. ——- Saker's Evaluation: First, some skeptics might, for good reasons, suspect whether this is true or some kind of smokescreen. Let me assure you that this is for real. Here is why: to put it gently, the USA and, even more so, the CIA are not exactly popular in Russia, especially amongst former KGB foreign intelligence (PGU KGB SSSR) service officers like Putin. They are even *more* unpopular amongst the power base of President Putin. So, if anything, by publicly thanking not just the USA, but the CIA specifically Putin, is most definitely not doing just something politically advantageous to him. Second, Putin could have just thanked Trump without mentioning the CIA by name. Next, there is the visibility given to that event: an official telephone call, following by an official announcement on the Kremlin’s website. Finally, this news item makes it to the first item on the most popular Sunday evening news show. So, yes, this is for real, you can take that to the bank. Apparently, the terrorist attack was also rather vicious: a major cathedral in Saint Petersburg was supposed to be targeted on a religious holiday (Sunday and the commemoration of Saint Barbara). It could have been a carnage. Finally, there are no indications that the Russian security services saw this one coming or had the suspects on their radars. So, amazing as this might seen to some of us, in this case it appears that the US CIA really did prevent a bloodbath in Russia. Frankly, I will admit that am personally very surprised by that. There are still many questions to be answered: who were the (already arrested) terrorists? why did the CIA know about his? what could be the motive of the CIA in actually warning the Russians? At this point, your guess is as good as mine. As I often say, I am neither a clairvoyant nor a prophet. All I can offer at this point are guesses. My first one would be that the bombers were somehow connected to the USA or to some branch of the US government and that the CIA decided to warn the Russians to spoil an operation by another branch of the US government. Maybe the risk of having some US agency clearly involved was too big. Other option: the US CIA and/or the Trump Administration really want the Russian to cooperate with them on something important, and preventing a terrorist attack in Russia’s “northern capital” was a way to show that the US and the CIA have some potentially very real benefits to offer to Russia. After all, the relations between the USA and Russia have been so insanely bad (all by the USA’s fault) that some tangible sign of mental sanity and actual good-will could make things way better than they are now. It is also possible that somebody in the White House has finally realized that the US has truly painted itself into a corner and that a country like Russia could be very, very, important to fix the utter disasters of US foreign policies (or lack thereof) in the Middle-East as East Asia. It is also entirely possible that, as the RT article indicates, the Russians recently helped foil a major terrorist attack in the USA and that the Americans decided to reciprocate. Finally, as remote as this might seem to some, there is always the possibility of a key person in the Administration taking the decision to simply do what is right. I know that many will call me naive for even considering such an apparently most unlikely possibility, but I strongly believe that there are decent people in some very corrupt places and that sometimes very corrupt people sometimes want to do what is right at least once. Whatever may be the case, I welcome this development. Lives were saved, some dangerous maniacs are behind bars and two nuclear nuclear superpowers did something together and did it right. I am not holding my breath for the future, but any positive development deserves some recognition, especially in our otherwise very depressing times.

https://ooduarere.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Olympic-620x330.png The IOC’s decision to ban the Russian flag and anthem from the Winter Olympics is grossly discriminatory and makes no legal or moral sense by Alexander Mercouris (cross-posted with Russia Feed by special agreement with the author) In the first half of 2016, shortly before the Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Professor Richard McLaren at the request of WADA published his preliminary report on sports doping in Russia. No one – least of all the Russian authorities – disputed that there had been a significant problem with doping in Russia. The Russian authorities moreover singled out the person who they said was the prime suspect – Dr. Grigory Rodchenkov – the head of RUSADA, Russia’s principal WADA affiliated anti-doping laboratory. Rodchenkov had come under suspicion of involvement in doping before. Though he had previously been cleared of involvement in doping, after the Winter Olympics in 2014 in Sochi in Russia he fell under suspicion again. He fled abroad to the United States, where he is now the subject of a witness protection programme. Though Rodchenkov’s deep involvement in the doping which had taken place in Russian sport was universally accepted, Professor McLaren nonetheless made him his star witness. On Rodchenkov’s evidence and without first consulting with the Russian authorities McLaren declared that the doping amongst Russian athletes which had taken place during the Sochi Olympics was the result of a massive state sponsored conspiracy organised by the Russian government and carried out by Rodchenkov in collaboration with the FSB. McLaren moreover said that this had been proved “beyond reasonable doubt”. To that end, reversing the burden of proof, McLaren campaigned for all Russian athletes to be prevented from participating in the Rio Olympics irrespective of whether there was actual evidence against them of doping or not. In the event, though several sports federations including crucially the International Association of Athletics Federations (“IAAF”) did prevent Russian athletes affiliated to them from participating in the Rio Olympics, the International Olympic Committee refused to impose a blanket ban. The International Paralympic Committee on the strength of McLaren’s report however did so, preventing Russian paralympic athletes from participating in the Paralympic Games in Rio. A few months later, after the Rio Olympics were over, Professor McLaren published the complete version of his report. This broke no new ground and made the same allegations that his preliminary report had made before. The International Olympic Committee on the eve of the Winter Olympics in PyeongChang has now gone a step further. It has banned Russian athletes from competing in the Winter Olympics under their own flag, is preventing them from participating in the Opening Ceremony, and has prohibited the playing of the Russian national anthem if they win gold medals. Instead selected Russian athletes may attend the Winter Olympics but only if invited by the International Olympic Committee to do so, and can only compete as ‘athletes from Russia’ under the Olympic flag. In addition a number of Russian sports officials including the former Minister of Sport Vitaly Mutko are banned for life from any involvement in the Olympic Games, whilst the Russian Olympic Committee – one of the founder Committees of the Olympic Movement – has had its membership suspended. What are the grounds for this extraordinary set of decisions? I ask this question because from a legal and sports point of view I do not understand them. As I have always understood it, the Olympic Movement seeks to be inclusive and non-discriminatory. Whilst it is obviously right and proper to ban athletes from participating in the Olympic Games if they have been found guilty of drugs taking, surely if they have not been found guilty of drugs taking they should compete in the Games under their own flag on the same terms as everyone else? If the Russian Olympic Committee is to be suspended surely that should be because its members have been found guilty of something? If Russian government officials like Vitaly Mutko are to be banned from the Olympic Movement for life, then that too should be because they have been found to be guilty of something? I ask these questions because the decision of the International Olympic Committee purports to be based on an independent investigation of the claims made by Professor McLaren in his two reports carried out by former Swiss President and Federal Council member Samuel Schmid. Schmid’s report however not only fails to support the allegations of a gigantic government organised doping conspiracy in Russia, but it actually confirms that there is no evidence of such a conspiracy in Russia. Moreover it also confirms that there is no evidence of any wrongdoing either by the Russian Olympic Committee or by a number of the people who have been banned. Schmid’s report can be read here. It turns out that the entirety of the evidence relied upon by Professor McLaren to support his claim of a gigantic government organised doping conspiracy in Russia is apart from Rodchenkov’s unsupported testimony a number of emails which passed between Rodchenkov and his co-conspirators and which were provided to Professor McLaren by Rodchenkov himself. The problem is that the emails do not show the involvement of any senior government officials in the doping conspiracy. Not a single email originates from a senior government official. One official of the Sports Ministry – Vice-Minister Yury Nagornykh – was copied into some of the emails, though Schmid admits that he himself wrote none of them. Schmid concludes that the fact Nagornykh was copied into some of the emails means that he “must have known” about Rodchenkov’s scheme. Since however Schmid does not provide copies of the emails and hints that he may not have even read some of them, it is impossible to accept this claim with any confidence In all these email exchanges produced, many names in the address bar (from, to and cc) have been blacked out by the IP in order to protect the confidentiality of these persons. For this reason, Professor Richard McLaren was unable to share with the IOC DC the original messages. As a consequence, the IOC DC is not able to confirm who was really aware of the information exchanged in the various emails. (bold italics added) It is quite clear from these words that none of the individuals who have now been penalised on the strength of the emails have been shown them either. In other words they have been condemned on the strength of evidence they were not shown and which they were not therefore in a position to comment on or refute. That is a shocking offence against due process, and I am astonished that it is happening and no-one is complaining about it. One person who even McLaren now admits was not part of the email chain – and against whom no evidence of involvement in the doping scheme therefore exists – is Russia’s former Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko. Here is what Schmid has to say about him In one exchange of emails between Dr. Grigory Rodchenkov and Mr. Alexey Velikodniy regarding a footballer, Mr. Velikodniy mentioned that “the decision is with VL for consideration and approval”. This single reference could not be considered as sufficient to demonstrate the personal involvement of the then Minister of Sport. (bold italics added) Even McLaren himself now admits (though very grudgingly) that there is no evidence against Mutko. His whole case against Mutko it turns out is based entirely on a guess Your question about Mr. Mutko was: did he know? information is provided to the ministry and like any hierarchical organisation it flows upwards in the organisational structure. So I would think that the information came to him through the ministry. But it was the deputy minister (Nagornykh – AM) who was in charge of the process I described. I don’t have any direct evidence as to whether he knew or didn’t know. I have met with him, I have discussed the matter with him, he didn’t indicate that he knew. (bold italics added) Not only is McLaren’s case against Mutko based entirely on a guess, but it is a guess which is completely unwarranted. Given that Rodchenkov and his associates were engaging in a criminal conspiracy would the information about it really flow effortlessly up the organisational structure of the ministry until it reached Mutko himself? The only circumstance where that would happen would be if Mutko and the entire staff of the ministry were also part of the conspiracy. That obviously is what McLaren believes, but of which he admits he has no evidence. The fact that McLaren believes such a thing without having any evidence for it incidentally exposes the extent of his bias. It also shows why his entire theory is not just unwarranted but almost certainly wrong. Most of the rest of the Schmid report is concerned with the evidence of the existence of extensive and organised doping before and during the Sochi Olympics in Russia. Since no one least of all the Russian authorities deny that this took place, it is not obvious why this information has been provided in such detail. What however of the individual at the centre of this scandal – RUSADA’s doping mastermind and McLaren’s key witness Dr. Rodchenkov – what does Schmid have to say about him? It turns out that Rodchenkov not only was instrumental in carrying out the doping but that he did at least some of it for money One of the major actors identified was Dr. Grigory Rodchenkov, director of the Moscow Laboratory; he was at the heart of the doping activities and of the positive drugs test cover-up; he had direct access within the Ministry of Sport to request funds for the laboratory equipment. The Report showed that in his position he was not only accepting but also requesting money in order to execute the concealment of positive tests of Russian athletics athletes. Furthermore, he admitted during an interview to have intentionally destroyed 1,417 samples at the end of 2014 in order to limit the extent of the WADA’s audit, of which he was previously informed by WADA. (bold italics added) In other words Rodchenkov was not just a cheat but was corrupt as well. Elsewhere Schmid discusses how Rodchenkov insinuated himself into the international anti-doping system Within the evolution of the system, the analysis of the evidence as well as the movie Icarus, shows that Dr. Grigory Rodchenkov played a key role. Due to his scientific abilities he was able to set-up detection methods to improve the fight against doping, to publish scientific articles and participate to experts’ observatory programmes, winning so a great international credibility. This enabled him on one hand, as an anti-doping expert, to gain access to the international expertise and strategy, in particular, during the Olympic Games London 2012, which helped him to contribute to the development of the specific system to be operational during the Olympic Winter Games Sochi 2014. Yet this is the corrupt and scheming individual whose largely uncorroborated claims of a government organised state sponsored doping conspiracy McLaren accepts as true. Schmid – somewhat grudgingly but nonetheless conclusively – admits that there is in fact no evidence of a government organised state sponsored doping conspiracy in Russia ….the independent and impartial evidence do not allow the IOC DC to establish with certitude either who initiated or who headed this scheme. On many occasions, reference was made on the involvement at the Minister of Sport’s level, but no indication, independent or impartial evidence appeared to corroborate any involvement or knowledge at a higher level of the State. Elsewhere Schmid admits that the doping scheme in Russia did not involve all Russian athletes – a sure indication by the way that it was not government organised or state sponsored – and that it was different from the doping scheme in the former German Democratic Republic, which of course was both government organised and state sponsored. Given that this is so, why is former Sports Minister Mutko against whom no evidence of wrongdoing exists being banned from participating in the Olympic Games for the rest of his life? Why is the Russian Olympic Committee being suspended, when no evidence of the involvement of any of its members in the doping scheme exists? The IOC DC notes that neither the IC’s nor the IP’s Reports mentioned the participation of the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) in the system. No findings appeared during the IOC DC’s investigation to contradict these statements. In order to justify the IOC’s actions against Mutko, the ROC and other Russian individuals and sports institutions against whom no evidence of wrongdoing exists, Schmid comes up with a complicated theory of their legal responsibility for the doping scheme even though there is no evidence that they knew about it. All I would say about that is that I have never heard of a case where individuals against whom no evidence of wrongdoing exists and who must therefore be presumed to have acted at all times in good faith are punished because of a criminal conspiracy carried out by others of which there is no evidence they had any knowledge. That truly is guilt by association, and it is wrong. Right at the very start of the Russian Olympic Doping Scandal in an article for Sputnik dated 12th November 2015, I said that the right way forward was not to impose discriminatory and unlawful blanket bans on Russian athletes which ignored the presumption of innocence and which contradicted the humanitarian and inclusive principles of the Olympic Games, but to work with the Russians to ensure that anti-doping systems in Russia were made as strong as possible so that large scale doping of the sort organised by Dr. Rodchenkov could no longer take place ….it seems to me utterly wrong to ban athletes from competing simply because they are Russian. That goes utterly against the humanitarian principles upon which the Olympics were founded. It is also contrary to the non-discriminatory principles in most national laws. The Russian authorities are challenging some of the allegations — as it is their right to do — but look to be genuinely offering cooperation to help solve the problem. For example they have offered to appoint a foreign specialist to head their laboratory. The right thing to do is not to impose a blanket ban but to work with the Russian authorities so that the problem can be solved. That may involve bringing criminal charges and imposing individual bans on specific persons, barring them from involvement in international sports training and competition. If that does not happen and a blanket ban on Russian athletes is imposed instead, then it seems to me that the world’s sporting bodies will not only have retreated from their ideals but will open themselves up to questions about what their real motives are. ‘Solving the problem’ in this way is exactly the approach the Russian authorities – who do not deny the existence of large scale doping problem in Russia – have taken. The anti-doping systems now put in place in Russia are now universally acknowledged to be just about the best in the world. Here is how Steve Scott, sports editor of the ITN news channel in Britain, describes them A lot has changed at the Russia Anti-Doping Agency (RUSADA) in the past 18 months and, according to some close to this transformation, if you employ objective criteria, the Moscow laboratory is as good as it gets. “The quality of testing and planning is very high.” a senior anti-doping source told me. The Agency has doubled in size, has had its budget doubled too and is carrying out twice as many tests. It has also built up a team of 50 trained doping control officers, whereas before it had none. As for a much needed cultural shift, there has also been a significant changeover of staff; few remain who were immersed in the bad old ways of doing things. Given that this is so and that there is now longer any possibility of Russian athletes engaging in a massive doping conspiracy in the coming Winter Olympic Games in PyeongChang, why is action being taken to prevent them competing on the same basis as everyone else? It turns out that WADA is refusing to certify RUSADA – Russia’s radically reorganised anti-doping laboratory – for no other reason than that the Russian authorities are refusing to accept the McLaren report. Why however should the Russian authorities accept the McLaren report when McLaren’s claims of a massive government organised state sponsored doping conspiracy in Russia have been shown to have no evidence behind them? Is it anyway right and proper to coerce someone into confessing a crime for which no evidence exists? Is that not the action of a blackmailer or of a police state? Is that the sort of behaviour the International Olympic Committee – guardian of the Olympic Movement and upholder of its ideals – wants to associate itself with? In reality the decision of the International Olympic Committee to ban certain Russians from involvement in the Olympic Movement, to suspend the Russian Olympic Committee, and to allow only specially invited Russian athletes to compete in the Winter Olympics and then only under the Olympic flag, has nothing to do either with sport or doping or the principles of legality. It is entirely the product of politics, and the Russians are right to say it is. Though this is the worst decision the International Olympic Committee has taken in its whole history, it is just possible that we may be approaching the end of this tawdry affair. It seems that if the Winter Olympics in PyeongChang end without scandals then the Russian Olympic Committee will be readmitted to the Olympic Movement on the last day of the Games, allowing Russian athletes to celebrate the last day of the Games under their own flag. Presumably that means that restrictions on the participation by Russian athletes in future Olympic Games will be lifted. That presumably is why the Russian authorities are encouraging their athletes to participate in the PyeongChang Games under the Olympic flag, humiliating though they say they find it. Whilst I understand this reasoning, I am not sure I share it. An Olympic Movement capable of making such a grossly discriminatory and frankly unlawful decision is obviously no longer fit for purpose. In light of this I think that the Russians and the many other national teams that must privately think this should now set about setting up their own alternative sports competitions, initially in parallel to those of the Olympic Movement but eventually as alternatives to them. Since I doubt that this will be the last of these scandals that seems to me the only way forward. http://ooduarere.com/sports/ioc-no-locus-standi/#sthash.gxjDyMNP.dpbs |
samebony1:So because I want to eat cow now, I have to start respecting the cow ?? You must be a crook or a full time hypocrite for saying this. Well, I can't blame you, they call you 3rd world country and you act like a full time 3rd world dead brain cells with a 3rd class.. Well, I got a good info for you. I do not use anything made by the anglozionist empire, a bunch of blood suckers, buying any of their products would mean I am also directly supporting their wars and their exportation of democrazy. ( I do not even use their foreign money impose by them, I use Crypto currency each time) However, if it's free then I may use it. Ok, that is how a normal person should reason. Even though nothing is free, I try as much as possible to make sure I am making more from the free ones than they are making from me which ever way. This is why you are so ignorant, f**lish and backward. Let me also remind you that, the first kind of coding in the history of human being was invented by the Yorubas. Go and check the 16 digits coding of Ifa. Over 200k stories (verses) are hidden in Ifa coding system.. That is the first ever coding system known to man. Before the latest blokchain coding of today.. So when you talk about Phones, Computers.. Always give credit to your ancestors too. Let me also remind you that I buy only Nigerian and I use Nigerian only when it's not made in Naija or not dirrectly benefiting my ppl. Then I buy foreign and the foreign is any country that has no blood on its hands.. Killing masses, exporting terrorism like the zionist empire is out of it. samebony1:OMG.. You must be living in one Oktopia, sad. Stop deceiving yourself following a foreign brainwash OK. Bible or even Quran is foreign brainwash. What vexes me the most is these foreign ideology could blaspheme traditional principles just to sell their foreign brainwash. Some of them even burn down shrines.. You are following a terrorist ideology OK. This is a fact.. Let me tell you why Traditional values is more superior to any of these foreign ideologies. It's because in any of what I might call invisible religions, traditional identity (Like Ifa, Dibia and so on).. You find that none of them has engaged in what you might call a religious war (Either Jihad or Crusade) in its entire history. I think this self hunting, arrogant foreign ideologies, could humble themselves and try to learn from these anterior cultures (Invisble religions, Tradtional religions if you like or most preferably ISESE) in which they have to some extent suppressed. Learn from what is truly yours.. Buy Yours, Follow Yours, Wear Yours, Drink Yours, Eat Yours... Stop follow follow up and down. samebony1:Stop following a foreign ideology. You see.. Everything you buy is foreign and yet, you complain about the economy. Be patriotic.. Jews buy only jewish, eat jewish, drink jewish, wear jewish, marry jewish.. Follow only jewish)Judaism).. WHat have you ?? follow follow foriegn ideologies up and down makes makes you a dead brain cells.. |
samebony1:How can I even be in any argument with someone that is following a foreign ideology (Someone that cant use his brain, oh sorry i forgot it's even dead brain cells) ? A mere paper god. Jerusalem has been Israeli stolen land since 1947. Just how many times is Jerusalem mentioned in the f00lish propagandistic Bible ?? How many times is it mentioned in the manmade Quran either ? Even though both ideology is foreign and it's written by man. Human being.. Ok.. I can't be in an arguement with someone that has no much upstairs except fall for propaganda and massive brainwash. If the brainwash is local, i would even be happy.. But Foreign.. OMG!! Shift let me spit. |
samebony1:See the propaganda installed in an average Christian Nigerian dead brain cells. The nearly century old lies is finally falling apart.. You need to delete what you have in your brains and face reality.. Land belongs to Palestine... The Land of today belongs to Palestine ok. Even typing one f*olish psalm written by who ?? Can you find it in Ifa ? Or Dibia ?? This is what happens when you follow follow foreign ideology. The land belongs to the Palestine.. The jews meanwhile have no issues with Palestines, it's the zionist r*tarded that is the crook here.. One thing many less informed propagandized brains in Naija dont know about or the difference between the two. |
https://ooduarere.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/putin-620x330.png Russia's incumbent president has declared his intention to seek re-election for a second consecutive term in the country's upcoming 2018 election. "I will be proposing my candidacy for the position of president of the Russian Federation," Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday at a meeting with factory workers. "Russia will move only forward, and no one will ever stop it in its progress." The United Russia party has already voiced its support of Vladimir Putin's candidacy for the election, a senior party member has said. The election is expected to take place on March 18. While the list of candidates is not yet set in stone, several have already voiced their intention to challenge Putin in the race for the place at the Kremlin. The dinosaurs of the Russian political universe, Vladimir Zhirinovsky, the unwavering leader of the Liberal Democratic Party who will be trying to win the race for the sixth time, and Gennady Zyuganov of the Communist Party, who nearly defeated Boris Yeltsin in the 1996 run-up, are interestingly joined by TV presenter Ksenia Sobchak who describes herself as "the against-all candidate". A fresh Romir-Gallup poll has shown that Putin would secure an overwhelming victory with 75 percent of votes should the vote happen next Sunday: Zhirinovsky and Zyiganov would get eight and seven percent respectively, leaving Sobchak trailing behind with only two percent. Putin was appointed prime minister in August 1999, and became acting president on December 31, 1999, when then-leader Boris Yeltsin announced his decision to step down. Vladimir Putin served two consecutive terms as president from 2000 to 2008. He then worked as the head of the government under Dmitry Medvedev. Having secured his third term at the Kremlin in 2012 he had delayed his decision on the fourth run. The campaigning for all candidates for Russia's top job is set to kick off in December. |
Ikio:These are facts ok.. You can laugh till next year.. FactsOnly... The anglozionist puppet Saudi war on Yemen ? Are they winning or lossing ? Guess whose side Iran is ? On the Houthi side.. Iran has always been on the side of anyone fighting the dieing empire ok. That is where Iran stand. You can laugh from now till the end of the century. This is today's reality but not living in fake world. Trust me Ikio:Trust me, the bomb may hit some dead brain cells on Nairaland and many Anglozionist wannabe fanboys. |
Ikio:lol.. Iran does not attack but always play defence game. Learn the difference between attacking and defending. if for anything, it's Isreal that cannot do without attacking its neighbours. The last time Iran fought in a direct war ?? It was with Iraq and Isreali and the entire west (The Anglozionist deteriorating empire) supported Iraq against Iran. Iran played its defence tactics as usual and won the war.. Today whose influence is more noticeable in Iraq ?? Shia (Iranian) influence is at large. Now that they (Anglosionist dying empire) are losing on all fronts, sad to see the Zionist Israelis in the total panic mode now. |
NairaMinted: Funny how time flies. What a big shame on ziomedia network. Another grt news.. Russian media is winning in the current media war or information war by a large margin and you do not need massive, wasting of mere printed paper (though it's just a paper with no intrinsic value or anything backing it but still wasting of paper) like in the zio-media empire..The Anglozoo empire is terrified and now finally shooting itself in the leg by showing to the world what a mess it is.. Attacking RT and Sputnik, labeling it as foreign agent is just sign that Russia is winning all front wars.. Name it, Proxy war, Economic war, Media/infomation war or even 4th generation/hybrid front war... |

Thanks for stating this earlier. The way things are, I think they are trying to change the strategy now to use the Kurds as their next pawns to take over from their defeated Tier 1 proxy terrorist ISIS, (Free Syrian army, tier 2 has long been defeated). They are planning to attack Lebanon. These crooks honestly do forget they are lossers. The best way not to loss is not to fight. The more they fight the more they loss. Good news is Hezbolar now has dirrect access to massive arms to defend itself and it will do that not alone this time. Iran, Syria,Iraq and possibly Russian Air-power to put a full stop to the anglozionist hegemon in the region and bring peace to the region. Isreal will need to get ready to accept the U.N concesus or be ready to be leveled to pieces. (Running away from a U.N arm like UNESCO is obviously a wrong move. It's like running away from their shadows. There century old lies is finally ending too soon) |
adem30:This propaganda is obviously from one American created religion or ideology/sect which is Jehova Witness.. This is banned in Russia. Don't generalize saying all religions is banned only this sect go visit home to preach u.S ideology and propaganda.... Also against U.S/Saudi arabia/wahhabi Radicalization .. ok.. Orthodox does not go or act this way.. Orthodox does not go about on the street preaching propaganda or foolish crussade.. Only the foreign ideolgy does that. Russia has long banned the Jehova witness crap. ok.. This is what the Oyo empire would have done if it was not weaken to protect the followers of Ifa.. See it today.. Even though ifa lives on and will continue to do so for a long time.. Russia is finally winning 4th generation religious war.. |
Zoharariel:Washington/pentagon likes projecting hollywood style propaganda fear mongering everywhere.. Like they are going to make some weapons that could detect only Russians and wipe them out. Lol. (remember Disctrict 9, the Aliens weapon. The S.african Hollywood propaganda film against Nigeria/Obasanjo). This is just fear mongering and i bet it must be another waste of the paper printed dollar to try to put fear in Russian society and have a low morale in the Russia military. The morale is just tooo high in the Russia military.. Compare it to the dead Anglozionist one that has been fighting war for over 16 Years and lossing big time.. They cant stand a chance.. Putin is right.. There is no need to fear one bit.. Living in propaganda world is such a mess. |
meccuno:The last time I checked Britain has since turned to much more of a protectorate state of the U.S which has long turn to the leader of the current anglozionist empire. Nigeria has gone out of control of the creator since and Nigeria controls its foreign policy (Independent of the creator) which the Brits or even the U.S, leader of the anglozionist empire has no control of. Let me also add that the Wahabbi that is currently ruling the Suni world is backed by both U.S, Zionist and Britain. Their head quarters is in Saudi Arabia but one thing has happened that has never happened since their creation. A shift to Russia.( Saudi Shift to Russia trying to get S-400 air missile defense system will surely backfire). Their usual seller use to be Britain and U.S which sold billions of weapons to them to kill the Yemeni. They are losing again in Yemen. Nigeria's main red line which it has crossed several times even in the past (First time was supporting the apartheid in South Africa against the west which then earned Nigeria the death of Muritala, he died weeks after his great speech, Second redline was intervening in Liberia and serianlone and putting a full stop to Clinton hegemony in the Region) and currently doing is a great shift to China economically made Nigeria a sure target for break up. Nigeria was formed for selfish or rather British Economic interest. Let me remind you that Gowon finally bought weapons from Soviet union which helped him to win the Biafran war. Britain was completely two sided in the war. Gowon later said he does not want any help from Britain in clearing the separatist which U.S, Israel, France support covertly. meccuno:Britain can never Break Nigeria because they know what will happen. It will make Nigeria finally shift to the far East and Russia again like it was done during the Biafran war. Wonder why they wanted by force or fire put a base in Nigeria ? When their boko haram pretext to do such failed, they decided to build another one in Niger.. That drone base will also fail. Nigeria is not a small country as you think. The military may be a little outdated when it comes to reconnaissance or intelligence gathering but forget it when it comes to Gorilla warfare, there is no match to the Nigerian Army. Let me also remind you, it will not cost Nigeria anything to get S-300,S-400 if it becomes glaring that U.S, or Britain is fully in support of breaking it up.(Trust me Russia will be dead happy to sell it to Nigeria even on credit as it has agreed to do to Turkey ) The same thing that is happening in Syria will repeat itself meanwhile the war is lost already in Nigeria and the west understand this very well. What it means to technically defeat boko haram their invention. cstr1000:They lost the proxy war or leverage/pretext to Break Nigeria. My post said everything about this. GEJ killed their boko haram spirit ok. Thank GEJ for that. That is the reason they decided to hate GEJ and wanted another person but not GEJ because he destroyed their plan by over killing Boko haram which then earned Nigeria being put on saction list of countries they wont sell weapons to. How dare GEJ kill their terrorist that much ? Let me remind you that GEJ finally got weapons from Russia again. The biggest thing GEJ did was to tell the American soldiers to get out of Nigeria. (Puting an End to their main goal in Nigeria which is Put a base there) Do you know what it means to tell an empire... An empire to get out You may not understand what this means in a military terms ok. cstr1000:I have just explained this above. Nigeria does the Enemy of my friend is my friend in its foreign Policy. |
jerseyboy:Set free from who ![]() From Syria, Iran, Turkey, Iraq ?? Where in the world do you live Where your money is heavily dependent on dollar.. Which freedom do you need and from who ?? Know your real enemies ok. The real enemy are those who already want to control you via their puppet or semi puppet ideology such as democrazy. In reality there is nothing as freedom. When those who seek real freedom are seeking from the anglozionist empire.. Let me list top 4 countries that can be termed free country.Russia (semi free economically but free 100% in foreign policy and militarily) Iran (free both Economically and foreign policy) China (Free) North Korea (free) Now tell me what is the definition of freedom ?? Cos you are writing as if you live in another world. Biafra is an ideology so as Boko haram, shia movement, ISIS, Mujadeen, Wahhabi, Takfiri mantra. Read this to understand more.. https://www.nairaland.com/4092328/what-west-cia-cooler-nigeria jerseyboy:Because Biafra is Artificial, it's not in the interest of the ppl. But in the interest of the Globalist, the zionist, the Anglozionist empire to use against the country they created that has long gone out of their control and hence they need to do the same invade, destroy, conquer and rule strategy. Read this to understand more. https://www.nairaland.com/4092328/what-west-cia-cooler-nigeria Biafra is a failed ideology ok so as Boko haram and Jonathan killed the spirit of Boko haram, it's the reason the west hated GEJ and wanted him out already since he destroyed their plan about Nigeria must break by 2015. OK.. use your 10kobo brain. (Those liking ur comments are in the same category, very less educated or no Education except shouting the biafran mantra) We all need Economic freedom. What is Economic freedom. A case where by our output is not only based on how many petro dollar. We need full time diversification and a scenario where by Oil (which you are hell bent on) is just 1% of our export. Reactivate and Use your 3rd class dead brain cells. This is why they call you 3rd world. cos you have 3rd class brain dead cells. jerseyboy:You are 1million years backward by your level of thinking or reasoning and your kind is why we are still living in denial according to Wole Soyinka. Too much potentials but living in denial. |
ConcernedRusian:Huh... Did I hear you say pooo ? The Issue with Israel which is an existential issue, is always trying to control.. Minority trying to gain control over majority.. They always go far into influencing and supporting if not hijacking bigger powers to use them to further a mutual addiction. The Zionists are losing in all fronts.. Yes, Kurds existed in Iran, Iraq,Syria and Turkey.. The Issue has always been this.. Israel has no major resources but always try to control others.. Go to anywhere the anglozionist empire is fighting war or exporting democrazy. You find a carbon copy of this insane existential threat to humanity worldwide.. Supporting minority against majority is their major strategy. Yes, the anglozionist empire were using the Kurds as tier 3 in the region. In Turkey (wonder why they have issue with turkey), in Iraq and Syria. Kurds are like the same Biafran ideology backed by the same Israeli crooks during the civil war.. Let me remind you who backed it, Israel, U.S.A, France, Haiti (permanent puppet to U.S.. In-fact Clinton Family) Now, back to Biafran war. They were winning the war but touched a nerve when it became glaring that it was war of control. Who controls the oil rigs.. Is it not the same thing we are seeing in the region in middle east? For Israel to sell the stolen gas/oil to Europe (fom Golan heights), it needs Syria, to construct pipeline via stolen golan height to Europe.. Qartar same thing.. They shared common interest.. Russia here will be greatly affected cos Europe finds alternative, then who buys Russian gas. (this explains why Russia too is fighting for its interest in Syria which is very well welcomed but not only that but also on the right side of history).. But what is wrong to do, is supporting any forces whatsoever over any government of any country.. So when you see the truth.. Pls say it as it it.. Without being biased.. It helps. Tier 1 Anglozionist Terrorist in Syria and else where - Mujadeen/Wahhabi/takiri/ISIS/Alqeda/ Boko Haram(affiliate/Franchise) terrorist organization(You can imagine the ugly changing of names each time to deceive you but they are in reality the same crooks Tier 2 Anglozionist terrorists in Syria - Free Syrian Army (What rubbish, Israel is caught several times supporting this one if the first tier was covertly but opne to everyone with sense) Tier 3 - The Kurds OK.. Good news in Iraq, Kurds have just shut itself in the leg.. There wont be any autonomy.. In Syria, the Kurds are Surrounded by Turkish Soldier. Going no where even though they are fighting showing their color in Deir Azzor, clearing their ISIS friends indeed to secure the oil there.. In Raqqah, I wont say anything abt it for now but trust me.. It will soon get to where the Zionist will have to choose either to up the ante or just admit defeat.. Up the Ante.. hahaha Israel will be burnt down.. So I guess it will just die down. Last thing.. Everyday is for the thief but one day is for the owner.. That day is near.. Those Kurds in Iran are not even saying anything.. They are already into Iranian system, same with Syrian Kurds. But the deceived among them are being used to further their master's plan.. it will end in failure... |

"In my efforts to break through the current efforts to try to educate people about Communism and why it is not “dead” as the official propaganda would have you believe, but alive and doing better than ever (thanks to the current collapse of the Capitalist AngloZionist Empire), I would like to share with you a pretty interesting lecture by Prof. Michael Parenti who, by debunking the founding myths of Capitalism, encourages those still capable of critical thought to reevaluate what they think they know about Capitalism vs Communism. Truth be told, Parenti does, from time to time, suffer from the main intellectual weakness of so many Communists: ideological orthodoxy. But compared to their Capitalist counterpart Communists are still far less ideological. Besides, we rarely hear from them, so I thought that posting this lecture by Parenti would bring some much needed common sense and “intellectual fresh air” at a time when historical, philosophical political education have all been replaced by vapid and hollow slogans." - The Saker Enjoy listening to Parenti bellow as much as Saker did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWyKJIEXhmA |

abduljabbar4:See the father of hypocrite talking.. The Yorubas longed governed themselves before anything you can in imagine your entire generation. They had their own way of life. So as other Ethnic groups too. No one can ever point to any time in history where the westerners in Nigeria ever walked n@ked. They had their own made cloths, their civilizaion (ISESE). (Plus globalization has failed ok., Not working) Now about the technology you mentioned . When you don't know you dont know. You should keep quiet when adults are talking pls. The Yorubas invented the first ever known coding technology which is the system of ifa. The first ever known to mankind 16 digits coding system. My team is even working on the latest form of coding which will be blockchain technology to showcase how to look into ifa in the 21st century.. English by the way is my 5th Language, Russian being one of my top 3. Ok. Who western Education help Idi()t ?? Who e help ?? Open your fo()lish eyes to see it. Seun Kuti said it, that the kind of Education your western warlord gave you is to just know that this is computer, this is how it works.. Or just know this is a blue pen.. Imagine even up till this year your feds are talking about how to make Pencil in Nigeria.. How to produce pencil ![]() You a fo0lish nonentity for not seeing this.. You are too enslaved and too attached to foreign illusion.. Believe more in yourself and in your people. WHo western Education help again in Naija ?? How has it helped ?? Ha i forgot.. Ode, 3rd world brain that they call you, is really a reflection of how you think really. By speaking english, it means you are educated ?? Lobatan... Chai.. Grow up first please.. stop being lazy and readin western propaganda.. abduljabbar4:OMG!!! You cannot take my Tradition away from me. Never. Plus being a slave to my own people in the 21st century means i am serving the dirrect interest of my people/nation first, my ppl comes first but not ever be a slave to a foreign ideology or foreign warlords/forces.. I would first of all be a slave to my family first, my people next, my nation and then my continent before ever even thinking of serving the interest of any foreign NATION outside the African continent.. That is the primary lesson you will learn by heart when you follow your own tradition but not mere foreign ideology.. When you follow foreign ideology, you becoome their slaves and they use you to further their interest first. They Brain drain you.. Puppet to them but not puppet to your own ppl.. You are nothing but a potential puppet to these foreign forces.. And many wonder why we are still in a semi failed state ?? Because we have too many ppl thinking like u.. A 3rd wrld brain with massive dead braincells. Chai.. abduljabbar4:Atheism is another ideology created by the zionist/west to use against another form of ideology communism but in reality they have failed because Soviet days never got to the end state of real communism ok. it was mainly socialism the soviet practiced. And Atheism was just there, just another form of ideology ok. A tool here to attack the Orthodox Christians, the Slavic race and also the Catholic and the rest ideologies too. I am saying go back to your traditional values, your real identity. Stop living a fake life. Be real, be yourself and be proud, be resourceful and be hardworking. Don't ever compare urself to me. My identity comes first anwyhere i go. Ifa/Orisa lifestyle is my way of life and i am dead proud.. What is yours ?? a foreing ideology ?? |
US House Introduces Bill to End Support for Saudi’s ‘Horrifying’ War in Yemen UPDATE: Watch the begining of the Fall of Saudi. The puppet master has decided to start treating Saudi's fuc*k up and show them who is the Boss. Zionist lossing control since house of Saud has now bowed to the house of Putin. Another strong shift in the middle east conflict.https://cdn5.img.sputniknews.com/images/105786/14/1057861456.jpg Citing human rights concerns, a bipartisan committee in the US House of Representatives has called for the US military to stop lending crucial support to the Saudi Arabian war in Yemen. The widely condemned Saudi intervention into the Yemeni Civil War has led to the deaths of tens of thousands of people, many of them civilians. The primary way the US has supported the Saudi-led coalition's incursion has been refueling missions flown by the US Air Force that allow their Saudi counterparts to continue a campaign of airstrikes in their southern neighbor. The new bill, House Congressional Resolution 81, would bar the US military from participating in any military action, including support for any side, in the Yemeni Civil War except operations against the powerful Islamic militant group al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). Resolution 81 "in no way restricts our military counter-terrorism efforts in Yemen," Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), who introduced the bill, told Military.com. "All the bill basically does is say we should not be assisting Saudi Arabia in Yemen." The bill has attracted 30 House co-sponsors, including Mark Pocan (D-Wisconsin), as well as prominent Republicans such as Walter Jones (R-North Carolina) and Thomas Massie (R-Kentucky), Khanna's co-sponsor. Congress has not authorized any US military action in Yemen against anyone but AQAP. Military.com asked if the bill could damage the US' relationship with Riyadh or other members of the Saudi coalition, such as their main partner the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Khanna denied such a possibility. "They need us far more than we need them," he said. "They're not going to tell the United States what to do." "[The Saudis] need to assist us in the fight against terrorism, because it's the right thing to do, and they have no right to extract a price from the United States for going after terrorism," Khana added. "What my concern is, is that we need to reorient our foreign policy and not have an alliance with Saudi Arabia. But I have great admiration and great confidence in our military [in counter-terrorism operations], and I think our military can achieve those goals against [Daesh] and in Yemen." He also argued that the US didn't really care who won the civil war between the Saudi-backed government of Abrabbuh Mansur Hadi and his rivals, the primarily Houthi rebel groups who have a rocky alliance with former president Ali Abdullah Saleh. "We don't have any stake, in my view, in whether the Houthis are in power in Yemen — it's not in our national security interest," Khanna said. Although the fighting continues to rage in Yemen, the war has entered a stalemate. Riyadh has been bombing and besieging the Houthi capital of Sana'a for over two years, but the city has yet to capitulate, despite many reports of extremely inhumane conditions faced by the residents. An estimated 14,000 civilians have been killed in the fighting, although it isn't clear how many of them died as a result of coalition activity. The Saudi blockade of Sana'a has also led to the worst outbreak of cholera in modern that has diseased over 800,000 people and killed around 2,100. These atrocities are an "obscene reality occurring in the Middle East's poorest country, Yemen, at the hands of the region's richest, Saudi Arabia, with unyielding United States military support that Congress has not authorized and that therefore violates the Constitution," Khanna wrote alongside Jones and Pocan in a New York Times op-ed that went up on Tuesday. "We believe that the American people, if presented with the facts of this conflict, will oppose the use of their tax dollars to bomb and starve civilians." The US has flown a reported 2,363 refueling sorties in East Africa as part of Operation Enduring Freedom — Horn of Africa, a military operation to support African and Middle Eastern countries in their battles against Islamic militant groups such as Daesh, al-Shabaab, and al-Qaeda. These missions have offloaded 80 million pounds of fuel to 10,400 aircraft since April 2015. A statement from Air Forces Central Command (AFCENT) spokesman Capt. Jose Davis said that USAF does "not have the ability to break out this data just for the Saudi coalition jets in Yemen because our database does not break down details on each receiv[ing aircraft]." AFCENT commander Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Harrigan told reporters in September that the US military's involvement is limited to refueling Saudi aircraft. "Yes, we still provide tankers. Yes, we still have airmen in the Saudi [air operations center]. But I want to be very clear on this: We do not provide [or] advise on targeting," Harrigan said at the Air Force Association's annual Air, Space and Cyber Conference. "What we have those airmen doing down there is basically assuring that any sorties that we would have in and around Yemen are deconflicted from what the Saudi-led coalition is flying." Against AQAP, the US is willing to use military force — including, on two occasions since the civil war began, putting boots on the ground. The January Yakla raid was a disaster, killing dozens of civilians as well as one US Navy SEAL, for no tangible intelligence gains. The May Al Hathla raid was quiet but more successful, reportedly killing seven AQAP militants in a training camp. |

And the first human being on Ile Ife (Planet Earth) was Orunmila ? The father of Ifa ?? Please learn to noture your own history before others.. Anything you typpe = Propaganda by the Jews.. Jewish propaganda.. Stop already little boy. I don't know why that tiny spam bot has not put a ban on ur spammy comments.. mere effigy of backwardness. Ode of the day, sold out traitor to motherland abduljabbar4:Both of you are dummies.. You know virtually everything about a foreign brainwash/ideology(Both Christianity and Islam) but tradition of your anccesstor you know nothing about. Who is a traitor to his motherland here ?? Something is wrong with both of you.. Go and read or learn about History. Don't read foolish propaganda.. Many of you even know nothing about the ideologies in Islam. There re 5 major ideologies in Sunni lead world.. The one you re practising in Nigeria is from Imam Ambali. Born in Iraq. They are now traitors to the current one leading in Sunnis world which is Wahhabi islam.. Wahhabi is the last one about to die but the anglozionist empire is using them as pawns each time.. Isreal/zionist/deep state/ Anglozoo controls Wahhabism all over the world. Last question.. Is there any ideological difference between the Islam world and the Christian world ?(hint, both of them in its entire histories have engaged in what you might call a religious war, Jihad or crussade.) Sidebar ( I think these arrogant, self hunting ideologies, Islam and Christianity could humble themselves and try to learn from the traditional identities of the majority in which both of them have successfully if not politically supressed.. One big mistake to make is to think these traditional identities are dead, they are very much alive. |

The original owners of that land were the africans.. Wonder why the isrealis are browish in colour ?? mofo. But today's valid owner of the land are palestines Again back to world war 1.. There was no state of either palestine or isreal but the land was occupied by majorly palestines. |
