I get but you don't want to act weak in the international stage. Holding talks with an aggressor shows weakness. If anybody should go into talks it should be Iran. Pakistan has got the nukes and everyone knows that. The thing is Iran acted recklessly.

Nukes don't give special rights and Iran can make nukes whenever it wants, that is if it hasn't already. Iran has a modern military and is good at making ground breaking modern weapons, and has the technology to make nukes, whereas Pakistan having nukes is all the credit their military has.
I do not think Iran was wreckless. Pakistan is a terrorist hotbed, a rogue and corrupt state which has historically contributed greatly to the destabilising of the entire neighborhood.
Pakistan is always willing to be used by the USA to destabilise its neighbours as it did against Afghanistan, recently Pakistan sold ammunition to Ukraine while simultaneously begging Russia for oil and gas.

India is right about Pakistan, Pakistan is a crazy country. India just took all its crazies and gave them their own country, it is called Pakistan.

Fash20:
I do not support kill civilians but what would you have done if you're the leader of Pakistan. Allowing this attack to slide implies weakness and Pakistan's enemy in the south may attack them as well. We saw how they quickly supported Iran. Therefore responding the that attack in a similar fashion is just the natural thing to do

Pakistan has a terrorism problem.

So Pakistan is just like that student L who doesn't have a shower but wants to fight each student who vomits when feeling the flagrance of L's smell.
Pakistan should recognize its problems and act accordingly instead of being in denial.
What would I have done ? Go into talks with Iran, collaborate with them against terrorists on my land, do a symbolic strike in a deserted area of Iran after informing Iran and making sure Iran and Pakistan fight terrorism together.

Fash20:
Iran messed up. Why would they attack their neighbor in such a manner. Its obvious there were no communication between both governments.

Pakistans response is completely justified and Iran's adverseries will start having ideas. Attacking Iran isn't impossible.

Attacking civilians like Pakistan just did is not justified at all. Pakistan (which was caught red handed hosting Oussama ben Laden near a military base in Pakistan ) is a well known terrorist-friendly country.
No country even trusts Pakistan with info against the terrorists on its land because of the complicity between Pakistan military and the terrorists.
Iran acted in self defense, Pakistan acted to look tough and chest beat. Pakistan purposely killed civilians and called them terrorists.

Coming from another ignorant person is comedic.

The Top engineering schools in the World are in the US, the rest Europe even the best from other countries aspire.

You know nothing of what you are talking about. France has école polytechnique (it is an engineering school), nobody in France who makes it into école polytechnique would even consider choosing a USA school over école polytechnique. We also have école normale supérieure. Google keeps running after people who graduated from either école polytechnique or école normale supérieure (the best school for maths in the entire world).

How can you be "one and only" by copying others ? Impersonation is the opposite of "one and only".

Most Nigerians think (Benin kingdom = Benin city).
They don't know that Benin city which was first referred to as Edda in earlier Precolonial maps is only the capital city of Benin kingdom which was a large precolonial country.

It was via war and destruction they got the artifacts.

I was partly raised in the house of my great grandmother who lived a long life and was the wife of an Enogie (my great grandfather) and became the mother of an Enogie when my great grandfather passed away. She was a kid during the war between Benin kingdom and Britain. And I met her, I lived in her house and exchanged with her.
She is probably the most important person I would ever meet in my life (I've met the former French President Holland) except if I ever have the chance to meet the Oba. She was a living witness to history.
People don't realise this but 1897 is not that long ago. My mom's grandfather (Chief Agho) witnessed it all as an adult who assumed the regency of the Kingdom during the interregnum. The British used him. That was so unfortunate.
But we can't change history.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Nobody hate you man. They just returned the abusive words.

I don't think it is useful for both of us to exchange any more words. I am not a fan of people who have a distorted view of reality and I'm not willing to be a pro-bono psychiatrist. So please do not quote me anymore.
Thank you.

I left nigeria in 1997.
In all my time spent in Nigeria I had never seen a person insult another person's parents, no matter how much they hated each other.
I had seen people fight each other, and when the parent of one of them showed up, both would stop and show respect to that parent.
To us back then, a parent was parent not only to his kids, but to all kids.
The Nigeria I left had good manners. Respect for tradition and traditional values.
The Nigeria of today looks like a wild Forrest compared to the one I once knew.
Also, Nigerians were much more intelligent back then, and I'm not only talking about literate people.
I saw people who couldn't read or write but had an extremely solid logical thinking skill which most Nigerian literate people of today do not have.
Nigerians have given up logical thinking for mastery of English vocabulary. So now they are dumb, but with their good level of English (written and spoken) they can pretend to be smart.

WritterNig:
⚡ Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth. He explained and justified what the situation is today.

Of course, we can lie to our people and partners with euphoria. But you can't do this forever.

Nigerians are champions in hating the truth.
This comes very close to home.
Nigerians will attack you for saying the truth, you must tow their lie.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Nobody ganged against you. People shared their honest opinion about your personality & character.

So words like "bastard" are part of "honest opinion" ? 😂🤣
It is ok for you guys to hate me, I don't mind.
I'm living the life, so no Fs given.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
U know how many times "STOPLYING" don buga us with his French citizen.

I said I was a French citizen just once when a guy who had no logical argument to defend his position told me "why don't you go stay in Russia instead of the west", I replied "I'm a French citizen, not a Russian citizen, that is why I'm not going stay Russia".
I think a lot of you guys dream of living in Europe or America so much that that statement hit a nerve in you. It has been more than a week and you are still talking about it. You even think I said it many times.

Not long ago, many people on this thread ganged up against me while a terrorist was insulting me for calling for peace between him and a Christian. Many people here ganged up on me irrespective of view point and they all claimed I was bragging of being a French citizen 😂
Insults after insults. I was also insulted for "knowing it all".
I was educated in some of the best universities of this world, I literally write scientific books.
Don't hate the player, hate the game 🏆

I have started fights with people on this thread. But never have I threatened anybody's life nor insulted anybody's parents. If a person is not thinking properly, I generally say it without mincing words (I'm a former teacher).
I can talk about people's intelligence and all, but the level of abuse which I was subjected to by a terrorist and the opportunists who ganged up against me 🤣
Threat to life and direct insult to parents ...
That told me an other thing about many people in Nigeria: no manners, just pure savages. No honour, no shame.

Fash20:
I think you missed point. Its not about Netanyahu but the Russian jews. Russian jews just like the American jews are some rich and powerful people you don't want to mess with.

Not all Jews are Zionists, and I think Russian citizens whom also have Israeli citizenship are Russian first before Israeli.
I disagree with your assessment.

seunny4lif:
Russia military always in action when it’s come to Israeli military vs Syria military by supporting both sides and sitting very comfortable on the fence.

On one hand they will bark at Israeli military while at the same time, will never allow Syria military to use advanced air defence systems against Israeli military.

Too many Jew-Russians and at the same time, Syria government is very very important.

Complex relationship just like Russia relationship with Azeri and Armenia

Israel is no friend of Russia. I just saw an old video in which Netanyahou was calling for the destruction of the USSR whom he claimed was the main supporter of the Palestinians.
Netanyahou has always been anti Russia.
Things are getting clearer to me. I thought there was a cosey relationship between Russia and Israel, but in reality, that relationship ended long ago (probably just a few years after Israel was created).
I think the sophisticated anti-air systems in service in Syria are operated by Russian soldiers, that is why they are not allowed to shoot down Israeli aircrafts, doing so would be a declaration of war between Russia and Israel.
If the Syrians had the capability to shoot down the Israeli aircrafts, they would do so.

⚡Kiev Mayor Klitschko recognized zelensky as a tyrant strangling Ukraine - Spiegel.

"One would think that the defense of Kiev and Ukraine united the country. But for a year and a half after the start of hostilities, there was not a single meeting or telephone conversation with Zelensky. At the same time, there are only a few hundred meters between the Kiev City Hall and the presidential administration.”

The mayor of Kiev believes that the country is moving towards authoritarianism, when everything depends on “the mood of one person,” Spiegel writes.

Klitschko also said that in the first months of the conflict the country lived without leadership and “outright chaos reigned.” At the outbreak of hostilities, he said, mayors took on key roles as opinion leaders, protecting cities and aiding the war effort - FRWL reports

Klitschko, zelensky is scared of you. He's afraid that you will break his bones and his scull, you're a veteran heavyweight world boxing champion and zelensky is a comedian who plays the piano with his manhood.
What were you expecting 🤣

FoolishBoy419:
This is why we need to introduce history in our curriculum. I know that Britain killed people in the South and certain parts of the North but I never knew that it was on a large scale like that. Most of the materials I read gave the impression that Britain got those artifacts through deceit, religious indoctrinagion,and limited force. Thanks for this.

You're welcome.
By the way, I meant to say "WW1 17 years later" but my phone keyboard is so small and my thumb is so big that I typed "2" instead of "1" twice 🤣

FoolishBoy419:
Israel is not the kind of country that you can get freedom from by simply protesting. It's not like the colonialism we experienced here.

My friend, we did't all have the same colonialism experience. My people were nearly wiped out by the British, some other people were seen as subservient to the British and were therefore elevated by the British.
The British did everything they could to destroy my people who were seen as a hindrance to colonialism. Even today, the British still won't give us our artefacts (Benin Bronzes) back and still goes on spoiling our name.

Benin city was a built up city before the war Between Benin empire and the British empire. But after the war, Benin city was burnt to the ground and looted and an untold number of Edo (not restricted to the capital Benin city of Benin kingdom/empire) were massacred with sophisticated weapons such as maxim guns (a sort of general purpose machine gun) and canon fire. (Same weapons they would use in WW1 17 years after 1897)

⚡Inflatable mock-ups of the M270B MLRS produced by the Lithuanian company Aviatema.

It is possible that they have already been supplied or will be supplied to Ukraine.

Irrelevant, the Iranian drone is cheaper than these inflatable decoys, so Russia still wins the economic war.

⚡Zelensky:

Look, we are not backing down, I am satisfied. We are fighting with the second (best) army in the world, I am satisfied.

So it is no longer the second best army in Ukraine 😂🤣🤡

@koshcad, perhaps you should reexamine your way of thinking. You should stop confusing your feelings with facts. You should stop being so arrogant. Try and learn, open your mind. Get smarter and stop your emotional outbursts.
This mistake which you just made here, it is only a symptom of your bad reasoning skills.

KoshCAD:
You are dull, how does Bight of Benin equates to Benin?

Abi you don't know what Bight of Benin means?

Tell me let me help you out.

Bight of Benin which was named after Benin is not mentioned on the map, it is a geographical zone on the sea, not on land. What you see on the map is Benin kingdom.

It is funny how you like the retarded fat bastard dokubo would just go on talking on things on which you have zero education, you talk without knowledge nor logic, only with arrogance, insults and stupid ignorance.

You're blind to see the Benin besides Priorima or perreima on the edge of the ocean?

You're using Wikipedia and 5 years old newspapers publication to discredit more than 100 years old map.

The guy is an ignorant troll with the knowledge and logic of a 5 year old. I kept correcting him and exposing him, only for him to keep trolling.

Your own Oba claimed the Ogiso story in his book I remain your Faithful servant

Thank you for confirming his book is full of fairytales

Especially the one on Izoduwa

Here you go again. Emotional blackmail.
From discussing history to bringing up my emperor.
You think that by doing this, I would start believing in ogiso ? 🤣
This has nothing to do with the emperor.
And I am not discussing the emperor. I'm discussing history which is the study of eye-witnesses written documents.
You are not discussing history. Rather you are throwing temper tantrums and trying emotional blackmail.

Look, discussing history with you is pointless, you do not know anything about history and you confuse it with fairytales. Fairytales are part of beliefs most people have:
All religions are fairytales, the Roman emperor had a fairytale of him descending from gods...the Japanese emperor has a fairytale of Japan being carved out with a kitana... It is ok to believe in fairytales, most people do, all traditions all over the world including European monarchies have their own fairytales and candidly talk about them. It is ok to discuss fairytales as beliefs people have.

But we are discussing history here !
Do you understand this !
Eyewitness written documents!

If you want to make a thread discussing beliefs (fairytales) ok, fine! Do so! I would be delighted to read the thread. But right here we are discussing history ! Not beliefs (fairytales) !

Ok Ask any Igbo Man to sell you one Square kilometer of Lagos we are waiting and Watching

As if the all Freehold doesn't belong to the
Awori

The Igbos only lease land in Lagos from the Awori they themselves pay the Awori land rent


Oya Hurry up

If them born anyone well let them refuse to pay land rent to the Awori and see if they will not collect their land back with the full supreme court backing


Oya get them to sell you a Kilometer of what they Don't own

You are still a deluded fanatic as I can see.
Over the years, you are not getting smarter.
I'm done.

Christistruth00:
I asked you to Google it yourself
It also in the UK Archives ask them to send you a Copy of the Original



On top of all that it was Ife that Founded Benin

Ogiso Obagodo who founded Igodomigodo Kingdom was an Ife man who was sent from Ife

1. Your document, you are the one who should search for it and provide it in full in order to make sure it is real. I don't have to put effort for you.
2. Ogisos are fairytales, you confuse fairytale with history.

Christistruth00:
The Document is not fake google it up the British Colonial Governor of Lagos definitely knew who the owners of Lagos were and said so
He was the Governor of Lagos

The Awori people still own Lagos today.

Ask the Oba Of Benin to sell you one Square kilometer if Lagos and ask the Awori people to do the same so we can know who the real owners of Lagos Are


At least nobody can sell what they don't own

The real owners of Lagos...
You know I can ask Igbo to sell me land in Lagos right ?
I can also ask haussa to sell me land in Lagos.
I can ask libanese to sell me land in Lagos.
The Igbos have more land to sell in Lagos then your beloved awori.
I guess Igbo and haussa and Lebanese are the real owners of lagos according to your reasoning.
Anybody can buy land and sell land.

You yoruba go about this the wrong way. Lagos is the property of the federal republic of Nigeria today. We are discussing HISTORY. You are telling lies to yourself because you just want to claim the land as belonging to you. That is why you are not interested in history. Instead you try to distort history.
Learn to separate your feelings, your ethnic dogma, your need to claim land, separate all that from history! History should be seen in objective eyes ! It is not about claiming land ! It is not about claiming ethnic superiority !
It is about discovering the day to day lives of our ancestors.
