Please someone should help me beg Iran not to tamper with any of the strip clubs in Las Vegas.

But Donald Trump should stop this fvckery.
If he wants to fight terror, he should channel his energy on Boko Haram. Why jeopardize the peace of the world by attacking Iran; a nuke nation that shows and knows no mercy.

I am not in support of the murder of a dedicated General.
The truth be told, he violated the sovereignty of Iran and he is solely responsible for whatever repercussions it brings.

America does not need Trump as President.
They should speedily impeach him and vote in Okezie Ikpeazu since they love stupidity.

Underrated post!!!

u. s didnt violate sovereignty of iran rather Iraq...the general was killed in iraq. Iran has been a major player in the middle east conflicts via proxy militias group, the yemeni war iran is the chief sponsor of the houthi rebel, the attack of the u. s embassy recently in bagdad was orchestrated by iran's proxy militias group which it was believed Late General Soleimani masterminded the attack that killed a U.s contractor. So the general got what he deserved.

One thing is certain the whole of Iran is under surveillance by the US in case of incasity and if not that US has strong intelligence just look at how a top military general was brought down without noise but our military here is yet to kill Shekau that is on another level.

Lets just observe how things play out


Nigerian army cannot defeat Boko haram because internal sabotage and Nigerians are like stew on rice.
Northern Muslims are Boko haram; Boko haram are northern Muslims. Sadly, they always pull the shot in presidential election due to their moronic exponentially insane numerical advantage that birthed the madness identified as Boko haram in the first place.

You guys are not current.

Iran won't strike US, thats 100% certain.

But one US allied it will take.


And talking about Military capabilities, you can't be comparing Iran with Libya and Iraq.

Even Kim jun hun knows he can't face the USA. But he is sure that Japan and South Korea he will turn to dust in eventuality.


And please note that Russia is an allied of Iran. And whatever Russia buys, China buys.

Warfare is a big play.





The answer is as simple as this

Using President Jonathan attack living in a porous country like Nigeria with zero security in comparison to America is a very wrong one. America did not fuc up, have u read what led to the attack? These terrorist nations believe in causing troubles where there is none, unfortunately for them they entered a wrong hand.

Without any form of disrespect, my question really is,
Why do Nigerians with one of the most unstable Governments ever, so engrossed by this matter? There seem to be some kind of enthusiasm in Nigerians concerning this issue

So we shouldn't know what's happening around the world abi ??

Sometimes, some of them don't think like rstional beings... Let's hope Iran doesn't retaliate at a point that will escalate the whole thing..

Even if it escalates, they will both eventually cool off, Iran have a long history of conflicts with the USA, no bi today....USA have sponsored various coup d'état there and many other conflicts, lets not forget Iran escalating it and holding about 52 Americans in 1979 including diplomats hostage for 444 days leading to the signing of the Algiers Accords.

Trump have the ace up his sleeves in this conflict, but if Iran play it smart and don't fall into the obvious traps that Trump is setting for them, they will come out on top here...Trump wants a second term to prove a point, especially after being impeached and the US population have an history of not abandoning a President at war....but if Iran play this smart and draw this out, with smart moves; the America populations will start slipping away from Trump and this is an election year, so time is not in Trump's favor; Iran have to size on that opportunity.

Iran contributing to the defeat of Trump at the polls is a huge upset for the history books and a huge pay back....You do not have to give your opponent a knock-out to defeat them, play it smart like Anthony Joshua's rematch with Andy Ruiz, avoid the center at all cost, don't provoke a hand-to-hand combat or wrestling; stay focus and go for the long game, while acquiring points along the way with international diplomacy, sympathy and support....Trump does not understand this kind of game, he does not have the patience nor the attention span or the diplomatic acumen to outsmart one here....Iran should seek his weak points, he has many and exploit them.

Even this Qassem Soleimani that everybody is making noise about, using to work and corporate with the US in their rampage throughout the Middle East with the full backing and support of the Almighty US military might....If you hitch a ride with the tiger, do be coming to disturb me, when you end up in his stomach....I abeg who get sugar, I get garri!

I suspect Iran will just keep USA guessing and bogged down trying to defend what it does not know or see.
Right now, USA has sent close to 6,000 troops to the gulf, at a huge cost. Iran will keep up the rhetoric but would not strike anything, c[b]ontinually increasing the cost of maintaining alertness and paronia on the American citizen and interest.[/b] grin

The Iranians have also siezed the opportunity to go into full-blown enrichment and l am certain that somewhere along the line, Iran will become a nuclear power, like Israel and the day that happens, all bets are off and America/Israel will have to show some respect to this country and its middle East friends like Iraq, Agfhanistan, Syria, e.t.c.
This is the scenario America and particularly Israel, fears the most because they enjoy the dominance and harrassment they are dishing out in that region, while ensuring that it is only Israel that has nuclear weapons.
But it is only amatter of time, l predict that Iran will develop nuclear weapons, whether it will use them is another thing entirely

Israel though it was not the one attacked nor the one who did the attacking (and Iran/Hesbollah have made it clear that they do not intend to revenge against Israel), that country wants to inject itself into the fight by force and is currently urging and egging-on the Americans, to attack Iran the more.
Israel's strategy has always been to use America and American blood to do its dirty fights and weaken its regional adversaries because it wants to have the freedom to conduct any act of oppression against the Arabs/iranians vis-a-vis the Palestinians, without worry of any repercussion.

There wont be peace in that Middle East until America removes all its military and private mercinaries (which they like to call "contractors" grin ), from that region, especially in Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Kuwait.
But the lilly-livered Sunni iraqi legislators are satisfied with the occupation of their country, at the prompting of Suadi Arabia and when the vote came up to asks the Americans to leave iraq, they all stayed away from the House so they wont have to vote Yes! grin grin

We have heard America say it does not want war but many people are asking: Why do you go murder the Number Two man of another country first and then ask them to come and negotiate with you? How do you say you want de-escalation while at the same time issuing threats of attacking 52 selelcted sites in that country?
We know that if Trump says 'Good Morning', you have to go outside to go check whether it was really morning or night but going about it this way, is an insult and humiliation to the iranians and l am sure no country likes to be humilated publicly.
Lets hope calm heads will prevail on both sides, war is not moin-moin to the loser nor the winner

Did you forget that it was the Saudi Arabians, wanting to build an Oil terminal by the sea, that attacked Yemen so it can sieze its port of Arden, leading to this protracted yemeini genocide?
I bet CNN did not tell you that and you did nto bother to research and consult widely on the subject. undecided

Guy, I will love to school you when it comes to military hardware. when it comes to making noise about weapon hardware, there are times you have to let your enemies knows what your capabilities is, and there are times you just hide it from people. Fine Russia has military might. and thats why the world is bipolar and even tri polar. but when it comes to conventional war, no one can match US. US has 19 Aircract carrier, 11 are deployed and they can project power beyond US coast. The leverage Russia do have is Nuclear Weapon, infact they possess more nuclear warhead more than US. They know how US can be very crazy. Do you know about tested Aegis Destroyers, THAAD, Ground Based Interceptors. Aegis destroyers have been tested and can shoot down balistic missile if it is not in overwhelming capacity. Russia s400 and s500 have not been tested, and moreover F35 and F22 raptor can use Electronic walfare to decoy them. I can school you more. Infact browse Area 51 and know more about what US can do.


Go and seek education. S-400 has already been tested with a ballistic missile
