FamilyRe: A Would Be Bride Shows Off Her Family's Bride List by TheGift: 12:24pm On Jun 25
Stephen0mozzy:
Congratulations to her, and well done to the family if they really modified the list 🤗 - but she no trust the guy to buy her stuff after the marriage? You know how much the wife items section go cost? 🤣

One whole maluu and iya goat don near or pass 1.5m

I think the South South still has the cheapest bride list - God bless my babe family 😁

Modified:
Alot of you have mentioned me, telling me how Akwaibom is expensive. Shey dem tell una say Akwa Ibom is the only state in the South-South?

Meanwhile, just so you know, bride price can actually be adjusted to your financial capacity if you're not marrying into a Hungry and sha__me-less family.
You said South South, so stop complaining about people calling you out, with Akwa Ibom. Just accept that you generalized and then be more specific. Thats all.

Some people will still come here to defend what Israel is doing because of the unchristian theology that they have been taught in the name of Christ.

Even when the Bible has already told us that God does not show favoritism to jews over gentiles in Acts 10, they will still favor jews and justify their genocidal behaviour for the same reason. How evil.
Foreign AffairsRe: Trump’s Iran Agreement Embraces Sanctions Relief He Once Denounced by TheGift: 9:16pm On Jun 23
CanadaOrBust:
Trump is a F**l but he did become a billionaire while his father was a millionaire. And the book was his narration as to how he put together deals
Your argument is fair enough, however as.per the book, it was not a narration. Tony Schwartz, the ghost writer who mostly conceptualized and shaped the core theme of the book interviewed Trump, then did all of actual writing. That is why He got half of everything that came from the book.

Below are some quotes from Schwartz , years after he wrote the book:

1. “The ‘Art of the Deal’ was a phrase that came out of my mouth 30 years ago as a way for Trump to write an autobiography he didn’t have. It was a fake marketing idea, not a reality.”

“I regret it every day of my life.”

“I put lipstick on a pig.”

“I feel a deep sense of remorse that I contributed to presenting Trump in a way that brought him wider attention and made Him more appealing than He is"

Go and verify

People will soon realize what is meant by THE ART AND F THE DEAL. Underestimate Trump at your own peril.
Hope you know that book was written by A Ghost Writer for Trump.

Trump has never been good at making deals. He inherited His wealth and has had Six Bankruptcies and several failed companies.

He is already a failure in Iran. And an embarassment to the United States.

HOW did US lose?? Do you know how much they'd be willing to pay for the lessons they learnt from ths war - worth much more than anything they lost in the war except human life.
Already they now have a corridor through Oman that bypasses Iran's part of Hormuz. Add to that, Gulf States' extreme wealth will now be spent to make them Iran-proof!

As for petroleum reserve, CNN stupid propaganda. US has excess oil. The reserve is just to stabilize world oil prices. Out of over 400 million in the reserve they have sold not even up to 9 million!
You're quoting Trump for me as evidence. You must be a joker.

Please dont bother responding again because i PROMISE not to read it, and i MAY block you for good.

You're very funny. Did the US tell you that they were going to war to learn lessons? And are they the only ones that can learn? Do you not realize that Iran has been able to sustain this war because of the lessons learnt from previous attacks.?

One thing which is becoming clearer to me is that you think wars are won or lost purely from a militaristic dimension but that is so narrow minded

I know you like speculations but these are the undisputable facts;

1. The US failed to destroy Iran's nuclear program (set back only ~months, not eliminated)

2. Iran's government survived; hardliners were empowered rather than weakened

3. US is in a weaker position than before the war with no long-term strategic gains

4. Iran's closure of the Strait of Hormuz blocked a vital shipping lane

5. The war handed a windfall to Russia (which has sold weapons to Iran, and has benefitted from america's distraction from Ukraine) and weakened US strategic edge against China.

6. US depleted Tomahawk missiles and other munitions needed for more dangerous adversaries

7. Six out of seven American military bases in the region were bombed without any meaningful resistance

8. America's moral reputation and reputation for effective governance has suffered globally

9. American has lost support of its main allies particularly in the Europe.

10. Gas prices in the US Rose from ~$3/gallon to ~$4/gallon (38% increase); later breached $4.50/gallon. Americans paid $8.4 Billion more for gas in just the first month of the war

11. Nearly 1/3 of Americans reduced spending/savings due to higher fuel costs

12. The cost of the war is estimated to have exceeded $1 billion daily , a ridiculously high amount spent on strategic objectives that have not been met, even though you ridiculously think it is worth it for the lessons learnt about Hormuz.

13. America is not even able to properly handle the peace talks that it has been pushing for.

14. America and Isreal who started the war together, are now at loggerheads.

I could go on, but these are just a few of the UNDISPUTABLE facts.

Majority of Americans are not in support of the war, yet you from a country described by Trump as a "shithole" are still here supporting it,- even though the war almost doubled fuel prices in your country.and you are paying more for food because of it.

Robert Kagan , a senior fellow in the Brookings Institute (one of the most influential think tanks in America stated: "this is essentially a complete victory for Iran and a significant loss for the United States".

These are people.who are more.informed than most on these topics, but you want me take your own assurance based on specualtions about the midterms? Like I said, you're very funny.

You are the one picked sides. How can a breathing human being look at the PAST (people and infrastructure lost) and likely FUTURE (war almost certain to restart), NOT just the present (the MoU), and say Iran won. Won what?? Won attacking ships on Hormuz?

Yes Hormuz will definitely be solved one way or another - even if it means US taking over from insurance companies and directly insuring ships and at same time providing cover for any ship crossing. One thing is certain, it WILL be solved!
P.S. latest news:
The amount of oil in the U.S Strategic Petroleum Reserve plunged last week to the lowest level since 1983 as the Trump administration continues to deploy emergency oil to minimize the damage from the war with Iran.

I did not say Iran Won, i said US lost. 2 different things. And i said US lost because they did not achieve any of their stated objectives. Do you have a problem with English. ?

QuinQ:
You are being VERY economical with the truth.
Here are things I posted earlier. See the screenshot for stated objecyives of the war!

Iran has only ONE card - Hormuz.
But they are FOOLS if they agree to ANY deal AT ALL at this time. It is OBVIOUS Trump is only interested in getting through the midterm elections. After that he'll start the real war!

-----------
Honestly, do you think Iran wouldn't a million times love to be back how they were before the war and still have all the people they lost??
US, on the other hand, learnt lessons worth more than anything they lost. I can assure you Hormuz (Iran's only card) is being solved as we speak and would not be a factor or far less a factor when (not if) the war restarts.
You can assure me, because what? You work for the US Intelligence or Isreali Defence?

Guy rest, with the speculation. It is clear you have picked sides. I am just analysing it as is, using US stated goals as a benchmark. But since you want to keep talking about middterms, let us wait till then to continue this conversation. Thank you
Foreign AffairsRe: Most Israelis Believe Iran Won Mideast War, Poll Finds by TheGift: 2:04pm On Jun 22
QuinQ:
Read the screenshots below then come back and tell us who is humiliated and is humiliating whom!
If Trump is talking like this BEFORE midterms that tells you what he'll likely DO after midterms.
This is reality NOT the alternate reality in your head where Iran has lost nothing!
Who said Iran Has lost nothing? Stop.putting words in my mouth so as to make your weak arguments sound stronger.

The fact is that Trump.when.He started this war said it was not a war but an excursion that will take a few days, at most weeks.

Yet, many months after, american bases in the middle east have been destroyed, america has lost the support of allies both in the middle east and europe. American and Isreal that started the war together are now at logger heads, and US is trying to negotiate an end to the war with Iran negotiating from position of strength. These are undisputable facts.

This your speculation about.midterm.elections remains just that, speculations. Lets speak based on the facts that are already on ground.

Based on its many stated goals for the war, beginning with regime change, America has lost the war. Even majority americans agree. But you are here still flogging a dead horse. Better rest.

Sir Keir Starmer will stay as PM until contest for new leader is complete...
The question my party is asking now is whether I am best placed to lead them into the next general election. I have heard the answer of my parliamentary party and I accept that with good grace... that is why I will resign as leader of the labour party.

This morning I spoke with His Majesty the King. I will be resigning as the leader of the Labour Party. I have asked the National Executive of the Party to prepare a timetable for nominations that will commence on 9th July and end on summer recess.
I wonder what crazy comment Trump will make about this.

The joke is on Iran. Someone that directly killed their heroes, Suleman, Ayatollah, and others, now that it is their chance to get a little revenge by refusing ANY deal so he'll lose midterms and be impeached (and possibly jailed), they'er letting him PAUSE the war so he can go do elections and come back. It would be definition of FOOLISHNESS if it weren't out of desperate drsperation!

Christianity EtcRe: Why Do People "Fall Under The Anointing" During Church Services? by TheGift: 9:05am On Jun 21
Because they are emotional or because they are pretentious.

There's no where in the Bible where anointing is used for making people fall. And falling to what end? How does falling help their salvation or their relationship with God?

Its often just a spectacle aimed at displaying some kind of power. Why dont they use that power to make an amputated hand grow? Or to rescue children from the den of kidnappers.

Dont mind those religiously brainwashed and ignorant people.

I bet they don't know that there are Palestinian Jews and Palestinian Christians. Or that many of the people who claim to be from modern day Israel are not actual Jews.

What do you guys mean by genocide?
Because you guys keep conflicting your meaning with the real meaning of the word.
Let me help you: "Genocide is the deliberate, systematic destruction of a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group, either in whole or in part."

The UN, same people that have been defining Genocide in the Balkans Rwanda, Somalia and other countries, has defined what is happening in Gaza as genocide. You never questioned their definition since, until now that Isreal is doing it. Even with over 70,000 innnocent Palestinians killed, you still decide to feign ignorance of what constitutes genocide? Continue deceiving your very self.

The only way Israel will get out of the way is when the deal carries Israel along, or should I say Israel should be at the front burner of that deal, trump has few years as president of the US, so Israel should not allow trump create a problem that will linger for many decade to come before he leaves the white house, Israel should continue their military objectives in Lebanon untill Hezbollah is wiped out from that country. until then, everyone should just sit down and watch the show😊
You people always read history as if it began yesterday or on October 7th 2023.

Israel, and Netanyahu specifically have been angling for this war for almost 40 years, even before Trump dreamt he could ever become president. How come Iran hasnt nuked them since? Trump was the only US president that was stupid or crazy enough to do his will. Until now that he realizes why other Presidents didnt agree to such foolishness.

If you want to understand the Iran issue, you have to go as far back as before 1978. Probably before you were born.

If Iran hates Israel so much, the question you should be asking yourself is why? Why are they always hated at different points in History by different people? Is it because they are "Gods chosen people"? Or is it because they are a "Stiff necked people" , as God Himself and His prophets described them in the Bible at least 3 different times?

You people keep burying your head in the sand because you hate Iran or blindly follow Isreal based on a warped theology. Even though you are paying the cost of the illegal and ill thought out War.

I'm sure you were one of those that said the war will be over in days. Yet here we are months after, with US coming to the negotiation table, with America humiliated and giving Iran an even better deal than they said Obama gave them.

If isreal is so great and indestructible, why do you care if US doesnt supoirt them? Why is it paining you, oh black man that is despised by majority isrealis.

Better wake up from your delusions.
