Foreign Affairs / Re: Israel Vs Palestine by umra8901(f): 5:54pm On Nov 21, 2012
wesley80: If you're a good reader and desire proper understanding, I'll recommend two novels by the late author and historian Leon Uris they are "The Haj" and "Exodus". The most significant events happened long before the birth of the Zionist movements but sadly, few bother to tell this aspect of the story.
Thank you for the recommendations smiley
Do you mean Exodus not Genesis? I googled it and there doesn't seem to be a book by that name written by Leon...

Lasinoh:

How can anyone explain to you. . .WHAT YOU CAN READ?
How do you get the info you need from Nigerians on Nairaland?
Stop being intellectually docile. . .and do some reading offline!

Goodluck. . . kiss

*thread unfollowed*
Reading does not mean you understand. There's a difference between both. That's why Nigeria spews out students who read to pass and then forget afterwards.
Stop making silly generalisations about people you don't know and learn to use a dictionary whilst you're at it.
Glad you've unfollowed the thread. smiley

Thank you and goodluck to you too wink

Lasinoh: Since they can't die of HIV/AIDS like Africans and 'BLACK' PEOPLE. . . something must eradicate them.
I don't like either. . . they are both full of HATEFUL, VIOLENT, discontent, war-mongering ijjiots!
GOOD RIDDANCE TO BOTH! kiss

FYI. . . 'JEW YORK' owns America. . . and is for ever empathetic to the causes of Israel. . . the land of JEWS. Simple explanation.

The scuffles between ISREAL AND PALESTINE?. . . Too boring to rehash. I will pass. kiss

Please, don't allow 'myopic', demi-illiterate NIGERIANS OR NAIRALANDERS deplete your brain cells with mis-information.

READ IT UP YOURSELF. If you can log on to NL. . . YOU CAN READ WIKI!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Israeli%E2%80%93Palestinian_conflict

If you've taken the time to read everything in my post, you will see that I said I have done some reading on it. That includes Wiki which was my first point of call.
I asked for 'it' to be explained, not wiki links given. If you do have any other links you think explains more, do post them.
Gracias wink

Foreign Affairs / Israel Vs Palestine by umra8901(f): 5:01pm On Nov 21, 2012
I have always being fascinated and interested by the Middle east/Arabs vs Israel saga that seems to have being going on for years and years before I was born with no end in sight.
I'll really appreciate if someone or people can enlighten me on the issue between Israel and Palestine and how and why America has gotten herself entangled into it.
I have done a bit of research and reading into it, but there seems to be a lot of bias and what not going on, so I'll appreciate if people who reply aren't biased in their replied because it'll defeat the whole purpose of this.

Thank you! smiley

Thank you Lord for this. It gets on my nerves when people say/write/text 'am' instead of 'I'm/I am'
It isn't that hard to differentiate.

Religion / I Will Be Praying For You... by umra8901(f): 6:42pm On Oct 28, 2012
I've always wondered if Pastors, Imams and people in general actually pray when they say 'I'll be praying for you' or 'I'll keep you in my prayers'.
When you tell people that if you do, do you actually pray for them or do you forget them the minute they are out of your sight?

Crime / Re: Aluu Community Demands Release Of Monarch by umra8901(f): 6:32pm On Oct 13, 2012
One would have thought that he'll be on his knees apologising to the families of the boy's killed on behalf of the community and then asking for pardon and mercy and not spouting rubbish that no Aluu indigene killed those boys and they need their ruler released.
That is an insult. Talk about pouring salt in wound.

1.
He is very late.

2.
Wetin consine him with rihanna and Brown mata?

3.
How does this affect his life in anyway?

4.
Is he or he is looking for publicity.

Let him go and sit down jor.
Rihanna has reached the age to know right from wrong. It's her cup of tea if she's back with Brownie and he uses her for punching bag or he is changed and treats her like a queen.
Trump needs to take a chill pill or two, stop meddling, stop looking for attention and mind his business (pun intended)
Wobbish.

Politics / What To Do In The Event Of A Nuclear War by umra8901(f): 9:09am On Oct 12, 2012
With all the talk of nuclear wars between Israel and Iran and their allies waiting to support them, what do we innocent bystanders from other non involved countries do?
If there is a war in the middle east and Egypt joins or talks, Africa is in and from the little I know about radiation, with wind, the particles can go on and on for miles on end.

Some people in Japan are still suffering from the after effects many years on after Hiroshima.

I get sick to my stomach when I think of the little to none protection Nigerians have against outside attack when we can't even stop the ones within.

How do we protect ourselves and families? How is Nigeria protected? How is our food and water supply protected? Housing and health supplies?

Bottom line, what should we do to protect ourselves amd communities in the event of an outbreak of nuclear war?
Foreign Affairs / Re: Hezbollah Claim Drone shot-down By Israel by umra8901(f): 8:50am On Oct 12, 2012
All this talk about drones and nuclear... lipsrsealed
All they'll (whoever they are) succeed in doing is wiping humans and living things off the surface of the earth.
I seriously doubt if there will be any nuclear war between anyone.

^thinks^... why can't we go back to hand-to-hand combat

Islam for Muslims / Re: To Muslims who react violently to Video against Prophet Muhammed (SAW) by umra8901(f): 9:52am On Sep 19, 2012
@ op, thank you jare.

It is the height of stupidity and lower than less common sense to kill innocent people who have most likely never seen and are not even aware of the existence of the video in the name of 'holy anger'. Why not look for those who directed, produced and acted it?
Then 'they' want to prove to the world by doing this act of unmerciless stupidity that Islam is a religion of peace? Can Mohammed and or Allah not fight for themselves?
I wonder if this muslims actually stop and think for a minute before they go on their killing sprees.

richarts: Why are people who are so lazy to read complaining?... People like talking like empty drums. When its not necessary to say a word they multiple ''unnecessaries'' because of there ''debris'' mindset.

Obama is an inspiration whether he is good or bad. Its left to u to pick good at of a bad situation if u feel he is nothing but worthless which I think only a person who amounts to nothing or doesnt admire great men would think like such.

''How can u become great if u dont admire great men''.
Richarts

What has he done to make him great? :-/ Become president and be the puppet for those that really control America? Dude is just like every other president. He just happens to be black hence the OVERSENTIMENTS and the aww-ing.

wtf is wrong with people in power in this country? Are there no advisors, economists in power? Did people not go to school? Basic economics? Common sense?
Mehn, how do we get such daft people into power, leading the nation and taking care of our money etc?
The zeros should be reduced not increased.

This is stupidness. Utter and complete foolishness. As if things are not hard enough for the common man. Even though I don't advocate murder, in times like this, I wish Nigeria can follow the footsteps of Ghana and do a major cleansing of corrupt leaders who are taking this country backwards for their private gain.
When I have kids, will there be anything to show them or be proud of about Nigeria? cry

I <3 Nigeria, but I don tire.
