LA fire department and other departments are focusing on the wrong things. Once you start prioritizing DEI over competence, things eventually horribly go wrong

Wyttcat:
I just did!

MadamExcellency:
Who built Panama Canal with the blood of her citizens - USA
Who paid for the development and infrastructure - USA.

Were there agreements before the USA handed over the Canal to Panama - Yes.

Is there any condition that will necessitate arbitration in the agreement - Yes3

The HQ9B is better than the S300, the JF17 is solid and has already been utilized by Pakistan quite a bit, it has a fly away cost of $25 million per jet, what Russian jet compares to this price? And if we spent a bit more money we could get the J10C, another solid multi role fighter. China would also get us the J35 5th gen. Russia cannot even produce enough 5th gen planes for the war they are fighting right now, and you think they could supply us? Look at Russia's allies around the world, how is Assad doing these days?

China has a ton of experience in infrastructure and logistics, more money and most importantly they tend to try to be neutral and are easy to do business with.

Turkey is better than both of them but they are NATO and that comes with its own issues. China makes the most sense for us until we gradually develop our own industries.

He wants to meet Putin to end the war yet he wants to take over Greenland by fire or force the next week fee months will be interesting

OneOnland:
It's not about battle tested solely. China is reliable, is advanced in military technologies.

romeodunn:
China has a more established logistical machine, they deliver on time, they are cheaper and their fighter jet engines (the WS10 and WS13) are more reliable than the Russian ones.

China is also cheaper, we can get JF17 block 3 jets, the HQ9 air defense system, and eventually the J35 5th gen jet for much cheaper than what Russia and Turkey would charge us.

And we already have a relationship with China that goes back years, I think this is a smart play on our part.

saintopus:
Don't teach us to produce guns, but teach us how to produce electronics, increase agricultural revolution. Let us feed our people. Insecurity will reduce

Boarding bridge how plz explain

Eriokanmi:
Heavily inflated contract. Na so tinubu make him money from us in Lagos. Monies meant for real sector development are being diverted and siphoned via inflated contract prices.
I think Nigeria deserves someone like tinubu to teach everyone a lesson at this time. He gives no damn about anyone's existence.

AllenSpencer:
How has your explanation changed the fact that the French also have a stake in the construction of the canal? You re-writing history on Nairaland.

They invested in the canal, yes or no? As a matter of fact, it was their idea and not that of the US. Both have a stake in the construction.

AllenSpencer:
Do you know how many French life’s were lost in the startup phase of that canal. Is it not same foundation that the US built on, or did they destroy it?

So they can also play claims it. They invested in it and should get returns also of the US also wants to lay claims to it.

AllenSpencer:
The French started the construction of the canal, so they also have claims to it.

AllenSpencer:
2025 will be interesting!

All the way from the US to go acquire an asset in Panama claiming it’s yours. Can the French who also started the construction of the canal lay claims to it?

He wants green land, Panama Canal, Canada, and still wants to rename Gulf of Mexico even when a state in the US is called New Mexico.

These Caucasian’s will one day tell Africans that our independence was not valid and reclaim it with military force.

I can’t just figure out what they smoke! Believing Earth belongs to them.

cr7lomo:

Tubexsms:
So Putin is more powerful than Jesus? Abeg, shift go one side

panafrican:
RDC is not that far from us, if this degenerates, Hey, we can be flooded with refugees mixed with embedded
terrorists. From the RDC you cross the Congo River and within 10 minutes you are in Congo-Brazza, from there
you can reach Cameroon on foot, and the Nigeria.
Remember when Al-Shabaab was growing in Eastern Africa in 2006? the rest of us warned that this could hit west Africa but some people downplayed it on Nairaland Forum. Six years later in 2002 , Boko Haram showed up in Maiduguri.

As far as the war on Boko Haram is concerned, still don't know why Nigeria is refusing to form a
coordinated military coalition with neighboring countries to destroy those terrorists. 150 000 west Africa
troops in Northern Nigeria will be enough to silence the guns of the killers.

Excessive national pride is sometimes detrimental. Burkina faso, Mali and Niger understood that.
Today , they made cross border military agreements and it is paying.
This being say let's keep in mind that to many westerners Nigeria is guilty of being a stable , successful African country with more than 200 million people. They just do not like it. To many people's many, Africa should be a junk yard with warring factions chopping people's heads

panafrican:
NATO is for North Atlantic, they are in Eastern Europe at the Russian Borders.
I mean, if we don't pro-actively react in West Africa, Nigeria will be the next after the DRC.No-one wants to see Africa grow.

Acekidc4:

Acekidc4:
Elon musk was the main reason i supported this Man. I really do not like him like that cos of his racist tendencies but Elon musk is my gee and whoever he support then i support.

PARADIZEPRIEST:
Fake news,water has long receded

We would have since gone very very far as a country

My late father told me then in 2006, I was still very young, that the subsidies were holding us back. But I couldn’t understand what meant. Now I know.

May God have mercy on my late dad.

Today marks exactly one year since he passed

Elusive001:
Where were Palestinians in 70AD?

Where were them when that una qur'an was written? Una qur'an didn't care about them, but devoted time to mention Jews.

Clowns.

Adebisi444:
Even if you ain't a Christian.. you can read the Bible that mentioned all these land dated back. All these settlement were quoted there.... Connect the dots together.

Botragelad:
Try to educate yourself, son!
It wasn't Palestine that harboured Israeli returnees from Europe in 1946, but rather the British Mandate for Palestine, which was a separate entity altogether, rather than any Palestine entity or government.

And, if I may correct you, it was the British authorities that issued those passports, not the Palestinian people.
Now, regarding your point about Israeli leaders carrying Palestinian passports, that's a historical technicality because those passports were issued by the British authorities like I stated earlier. They controlled the region at the time. It doesn't change the fact that the Jewish people have a deep, millennia-old connection to the land.

What then is your take on the 1917 Balfour Declaration, which explicitly recognised the Jewish people's right to a national home?
