[quote author= post=138968131]Same Trump wey dey face him own personal issue at the moment against Iran wey don turn fish bonw for him neck?![/quote]I don't expect terrorists supporters to be happy with the global fight against terrorism championed by the US and Israel.

Terrorism is beyond a personal concern. Terrorism is a global manence which sane countries who care about their citizens should take it seriously. I'm sure if terrorism wasn't Islamic related, all Muslims in the world would have joined hands to eradicate it just like Covid-19.

The Islamic Republic of Iran led by Khomeini was a global terrorism regime who provided funding, training, weapons transfers, strategic, coordination, logistics support to Hamas, Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Boko Haram, ISWAP, Ansaru, Al-Qaeda, Taliban, Liwa Zainebiyoun, Liwa Fatemiyoun, Harakat al-Nujaba, Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq, Kata'ib Hezbollah, Ansar Allah etc for the sole purpose of overthrowing governments to establishment Islamic state under strict Sharia law.

Iran's Islamic jihadists groups and proxies see unbelievers and moderate moslems as their primary target for elimination. Whereas Israel and the US see terrorists and their primary targets for elimination.

Politics › Riley Moore Raises Concerns Over Nigeria’s Insecurity by WorkTheTalk(op): 7:52am On Apr 02
U.S. Congressman To Nigerian Govt: Address Attacks On Christians Or Trump Administration Will Address It for You

U.S. Congressman Riley Moore of West Virginia has addressed Nigeria’s security situation following an interview on Newsmax, where he discussed a report submitted to the White House.

Moore, a member of the House Appropriations Committee, explained that the report was the result of an investigation into recent violence in Nigeria and drew on insights from his recent visit to the country.

He specifically referenced attacks on religious gatherings, providing details on the reported number of casualties during these incidents.

“So as you just reported, unfortunately, we've had 40 individuals who were killed at a Palm Sunday service, which is just tragic,” he said.

He also mentioned another incident involving a gathering in Kaduna State, where additional casualties were recorded.

“And then on top of that, you had another 13 Christians killed by Islamic radical militants at a Christian wedding on Sunday,” he said.

Speaking on engagement between both countries, he said recommendations have been presented on possible areas of cooperation.
“So we have a number of suggestions here of how the Nigerian government can work with the United States government to address this,” he said.

Addressing potential next steps, Moore stated that action could be taken if the situation is not addressed.

“But as President Trump has been very clear on this, if they don't address this, we're going to address it for them. Now, we will like to address it in cooperation and coordination but if they don’t do that, if they don’t step up to the plate here, we are going to start to take the lead on this,” he said.

Providing details of current involvement, he referred to the presence of US personnel working with Nigerian forces.

“Now, currently, we have 200 military individuals from our armed forces there training and working with the Nigerian military to try to address their capability gaps that they have there,” he said.

He also mentioned the deployment of aerial systems, saying, “We have MQ-9 Reapers there currently as well.”

On previous operations, he referenced December 2025 military activity targeting armed groups.

“Tomahawk cruise missile strike just around Christmas in Nigeria to try to address ISIS and Boko Haram, which also operate in that country, largely unfettered, which is a terrible, terrible situation,” he said.

Assessing the response of Nigerian authorities, Moore said some steps had been taken.

“But look, the Nigerian government has been trying to make some steps toward this, but they're not doing it fast enough, things aren’t happening quick enough. And these things keep happening, so something's got to give here,” he said.

Responding to reports that described the situation as complex, he disagreed with that characterisation.

“Well, I mean, that's just a false claim on its face, right?” he said.

He referred again to attacks on gatherings to support his position.

“But we're here talking about, you and I, a Palm Service Sunday being attacked by Islamic radicals. We're talking about a Christian wedding being attacked by Islamic radicals,” he said,

Drawing from his visit, he said he met displaced persons.
“When I was in Nigeria, I met with people who were Christians who were living in IDP camps,” he said.

He described the situation in the camps as part of his account.
“So they're in refugee camps where Islamic radicals just roll through there and murder people who are living in refugee camps. So I'm not really sure how much more complex it is than that, than Islamic radical Muslims are running wild in this country,” he said.

He acknowledged that other factors have been cited in explaining the violence.
“And what they'll argue is it's about farmers and herders and things like that. Sure, that's part of it. Are there non-Christians being killed in Nigeria? Of course, there are. I mean, there are terrorist organizations there. Yes, of course,” he said.

He concluded by stating his view on the pattern of attacks.
“But there is a systemic effort by Islamic radicals to eliminate Christian populations within Nigeria,” he said.

Politics › Re: Months After Tinubu’s Visit To Brazil, Promised Direct Flight Yet To Kickoff by WorkTheTalk(m):
Christmyhope:
Yes, agreement takes time to be finalized into something concrete. It was just like when president Tinubu went to Abu Dhabi, United Arab emirate (UAE), in September 2023. Tinubu met with UAE President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan in Abu Dhabi on September 11, 2023, where a "historic agreement" was finalized to lift the ban on Nigerian travellers and pave the way for the return of Emirates Airlines.
Following negotiations initiated by the President, Emirates Airlines finally resumed daily flight operations to Lagos, Nigeria, on October 1, 2024, after a roughly two-year suspension so also sau-paulo to Lagos will resume in no too distance time.
I heard such colorful excuses during the late president Burahi's 8 wasted years. The former first lady called him "brain dead'; Trump called him "lifeless", yet you wouldn't take heed. When he left power, he quickly went to be with his ancestors, leaving your lot to package and hype another fraud.

Keep wasting your generation for thieves whose aim is to loot Nigeria for their immediate family members, while leaving you in abject poverty.

For those who are against Israel/US war with the Islamic Jihadists in Iran, your voice is needed in Nigeria to stopped the ongoing genocide. Wherever these jihadists are, whether in Iran, Afghanistan, Irag, Yemen, Nigeria, France, Canada, UAE, Saudi Arabia, their aim is to slaughter christians, jews, and muslims who are passive to the jihadists" bloodshed doctrine.

Innocent Nigerians are being killed daily by Islamic jihadists in Nigeria. Speak out now, or remain silent when external forces who care about the lives of Nigerian citizens come in to handle these radicals.

Education › Growth Mindset By Professor Carol Dweck by WorkTheTalk(op): 3:41pm On Mar 28
The professor who invented "growth mindset" works at Stanford, and most people have no idea what she actually discovered.

Everyone quotes the phrase. Almost nobody understands what the research behind it really showed.

Her name is Carol Dweck, and the finding that made her famous came from watching how children responded to failure in real time.

She gave kids a series of puzzles, and when the puzzles got hard, two completely different behaviors emerged. Some kids leaned in and tried harder. Others shut down and gave up. The IQ scores between the two groups were nearly identical.

The difference had nothing to do with intelligence. It had everything to do with what each child believed about intelligence itself.

Kids who believed ability was fixed treated every failure as evidence of who they were. Kids who believed ability could grow treated every failure as information about what to do next. Same puzzle. Same difficulty. Completely different outcomes.

Here is what Stanford now officially teaches its students based on her work.

The first tool is deceptively simple: add the word "yet" to any statement of failure. "I don't understand this" becomes "I don't understand this yet."

That single word shifts the brain from a closed verdict to an open investigation, and the research shows it measurably changes how long students persist on hard problems.

The second tool is reframing what effort actually means. Students with a fixed mindset interpret needing to try hard as proof they aren't talented.

Students with a growth mindset interpret effort as the mechanism through which talent is built. The same amount of struggle means two completely different things depending on the story you tell yourself about it.

The third tool is how you process criticism. A fixed mindset treats negative feedback as a personal attack to be avoided. A growth mindset treats it as the most useful data available because it points directly at the gap between where you are and where you want to be.

Dweck spent decades proving that the belief you hold about your own potential is not just a feeling. It is a self-fulfilling operating system that determines almost everything about what you're willing to attempt and how long you're willing to keep going.

The students who thrive at Stanford aren't the ones who never struggle.

They're the ones who decided that struggling means they're learning.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Russia To Build Vietnam's First Ever Nuclear Power Plant (Photos) by WorkTheTalk(m): 3:49pm On Mar 24
SuperSupremo:
Dumbest people,America built the Nuclear reactors in Iran and not Russia
You extremist element, let me educate you.

~ The US helped Iran to build research labs to develop nuclear power plant for electricity under a peaceful rulership
~ Russia took over from the US when Islamic jihadists overthrew the the government of Iran

The U.S. helped start Iran’s nuclear program during the 1950s–1970s under the “Atoms for Peace” initiative for electricity generation, under a peaceful government.

In 1975, under Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, Iran signed a contract with the German firm Kraftwerk Union (a joint venture of Siemens AG and AEG) to construct two pressurized water reactors at the Bushehr nuclear site on the Persian Gulf coast. Construction began in 1975, but the Iranian Revolution in 1979 halted the project, and the German company withdrew, leaving the reactors unfinished at that time.

Also because of the Iranian Revolution in 1979, where Islamic jihadists took over Iran, relations between Iran and the U.S. collapsed, and cooperation on nuclear projects stopped.

In 1995, Islamic Republic of Iran signed an agreement with Russia to finish the Bushehr reactor. Russia’s nuclear company built the reactor and supplied the fuel, and the plant began producing electricity in 2011. While Iran's nuclear reactors generated electricity on the surface, under the earth, Iran's nuclear scientists and engineers were developing nuclear weapons under Putin's agreement and supervision

The islamist forces led by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini believed that one day they would finally posses nuclear warheads to actualize their doctrine: "Death to America, death to Israel".
Unfortunately, they are all dead with their evil doctrine.

In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Primate Ayodele made it known that the northern part of the country is yet to support Tinubu’s second term ambition because capable hands are not handling the region for him.
So it is not about capable hands to work for Tinubu to give the dividends to the citizens of the country. It is about capable hands to handle the north for Tinubu to win elections. Let him ask Seyi to relocate to Borno state and start the City Boys movement from there.

This is how far the so-called religious leaders have contributed and enabled the corrupt government to keep this country where it is today.

Any military strike that always kill scores of bandits in the camps of notorious kingpin, Bello Turji, without killing the kingpin himself is fake. Untill you take down Bello Turji, you all are playing the same game.

Tinubu is asking the countries he visits for assistance to fight insecurity in Nigeria. The truth is that he is not serious about stopping insecurity in Nigeria. It's just a victimhood strategy to collect loans from those countries. The same loans that would be misappropriated.

We are looking forward to the real strikes from Trump's war department, soon.

nairalanda1:
Building nuclear weapons is different from building nuclear power plant.

A country has to have good reason to build nuclear weapons first before they can talk of a plant. EG...countires like North Korea and Israel have good reasons for nuclear weapons. As does Iran.

But VIetnam, which is in a relatively peaceful corner of SE Asia and which has good relations with russia, china and the USA...does not need a nuclear weapon. But they do need more electricity...for industrial growth and jobs...and one nuclear station can do the job of several gas powered plants. Also, nuclear power does not pollute as much as gas powered plants.

Plus it costs a lot to build nuclear weapons.
What good reason did Iran have to build nuclear weapons, rather than "Death to Israel, death to America"?
As for VIetnam being a peaceful country, countries develop their military capabilities in times of peace, not in time of war. And with a rogue like Putin involved, it's doubtful that neclear development in Vietnam is for peaceful purposes.

Countries that have supported Russia in its war against Ukraine, yet the empty bully called Putin is still clueless:

1. North Korea
~ Sent 10,000–15,000 troops to assist Russian forces.
~ Supplied artillery shells, rockets, and ballistic missiles.
~ Provided large quantities of Soviet-compatible ammunition.

2. Iran
~ Supplied Shahed attack drones used in strikes on Ukrainian cities and infrastructure.
~ Provided drone technology, training, and technical support.
~ Reportedly transferred short-range ballistic missiles.

3. Belarus
~ Allowed Russia to launch attacks from Belarusian territory.
~ Provided military bases, airfields, and logistical support.
~ Hosted Russian troops and missile systems.

4. Syria
~ Some Syrian fighters volunteered to fight alongside Russian forces.
~ Political support for Russia in international forums.

5. China
~ Provided economic and trade support, helping Russia bypass some sanctions.
~ Supplied dual-use technologies (electronics, machine tools, drone components).
~ Increased energy trade with Russia.

6. Cuba
~ Some Cuban citizens recruited to fight for Russia as contract soldiers (not official Cuban military deployment).

7. Nepal
~ Nepalese nationals recruited into the Russian army as foreign fighters.

8. Serbia
~ Some Serbian volunteers reportedly joined Russian units.

9) Illegal recruitments of war mercenaries in thousands from African countries like Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, Niger etc

Even the Russia fanboy, the OP, believes the propaganda that 20 millions Ukraine are gone. You folks are all comedians. Common sense should have let you know that Ukraine isn't stopping its citizens from taken shelters in other European countries until the war is over. In your feeble mind, 20 millions Ukrainians are dead.

How can you say you are a world power, but you can't take over a small neighboring country ruled by the so-called comedian Volodymyr Zelenskyy in 4 years, whereas the real world powers are feasting in Venezuela, Iran, and many other countries who are your allies?
