A major cyberattack has targeted the Central Bank of Iran (CBI) and several other banks, leading to widespread disruptions in the country’s banking system.

▪️In 02/22, Harris and Zelensky had a tense strategic disagreement at the MSC over how to keep Russia from dragging Europe into a new Cold War. Harris rebuffed Zelensky’s request for preemptive sanctions.
➖“Despite Biden’s physical problems, he has been far more energetic and assertive than Harris on Ukraine. She has missed several opportunities to build a decent relationship with Zelensky, and her ambivalence about the crisis does not bode well if she wins the presidency,” says a former Biden aide.

▪️“During a press conference in Poland, discussing refugees who fled Ukraine two weeks after Putin’s invasion, Harris laughed. Zelensky’s former press secretary Yulia Mendel wrote: “It would be a tragedy if this woman won the presidential election.” Mendel quickly deleted her post and retracted her comments” ▪️“Contrary to Harris’s historic statements about Ukraine, if she wins, her relationship with Ukraine and President Zelensky promises to be anything but simple”.

▪️The German prosecutor's office has issued an arrest warrant for a Ukrainian diving instructor living in Poland, who is suspected of involvement in the terrorist attack on the Nord Streams, German media write.

The arrest warrant for a certain Vladimir Z. was handed over to Warsaw back in June. It is alleged that the Ukrainian was driving the car in which those involved in the terrorist attack were traveling.

The White House stated that it condemns the sabotage against the "Nord Streams" and was unaware of the arrest warrant for the suspect from Ukraine.

A huge amount of obituaries is recorded in Ukraine.

Data is coming from the Donetsk, Kharkov, Sumy, Kursk, and Zaporozhye directions.
Today, an absolute record will be set for 2.5 years of war.

However, we must add that those are probably cumulative numbers from previous days since Ukraine didn't publish any deaths until 8/11/24, after the initial attack on the Kursk region.

LalaSnakeLala:

Through what lenses do you view things? What books have you been reading? Your writeup reflects a perspective that resonates with woke values. What makes you think the West have Africa in their grip? Or is it not the case that most African leaders prioritize their own interests over the well being of their people and succumb to external influences, thereby hindering progress and development?

BTW, there's a cancer called Islam. That's what you should be worried about. They're gradually getting stronger especially Africa, so any western countries like Russia supporting them are considered enemies.



Our leaders don't represent our interest here in Africa, ie because they are puppets, they are Western puppets who are just waiting to switch to the East.

The countries we're living in today was designed by the Western world for their interest, they made the major structure of the countries, we aren't independent, we're just celebrating independence yearly, even the people we call leaders are helpless in the situation, they can't do anything even if they have good plan, we aren't free, we need freedom!

Look at francophone countries around us, they are clearly under neocolonism, France tell them what to do, look at the condition France gave ECOWAS if we must have ECO, they knew those guys will be systematically free if we have Eco, they proposed a system that will bring the entire ECOWAS under France but Nigeria refused.

We need freedom, that freedom can only come when the Eastern world clashes with the Western powers then they will be forced to free us.

For Islam, I have good understanding of Islam and how it's mixed with politics,

You said Russia support Islam, how?
If you're talking of country that support Islam then USA should come 1st, 2nd and even 3rd

Can you compare Russia and China with the US and Europe in terms of supporting Islam?
The Western world are the ones who support Islam, give Islam room to propagate.

Russia and China don't take shit from Islam or Muslims, the only Muslims they have are their citizens, they are minority and kept in check,

Muslims can't feel comfortable in China or Russia.

Check out the Islamic countries that were parts of the Soviet Union or colonized by Russia. Countries like Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Tajikstan, Turkmenistan, Kirgizia, and Kazakhstan. They just identify as Muslims, nothing Islamic about them, they are all secular countries because they were ruled by people who don't take shit from Islam or religion.

USA don't only support Islam, they creates and sponsore Islamic terrorists.

There are 2 major way of following Islam, the Sunni and the Shi'ite (Shia)

Saudi Arabia(Sunni) country is one of US most important Allies, they are Wahhabis, they are most dangerous kind of Islam. They have majority terrorist grous in the world which includes Boko Haram, Ansaru, ISWAP, Fulani militias, Jànjaweed. Just few in the Sahel. US, France and UK give arms to terrorists directly, Saudi just pay them with oil money then they will start supplying pro Saudi terror groups with weapons. People controling USA don't mind endangering their country, allies or citizens to Wahhabism.

You don't know much about the politics being played in Middle East that's why you said Russia is supporting Islam.

If not for Israel that's always kicking against US policies or plans to give superior arms to al-qaeda and other Sunni terrorists group, Assad for don run comot for office since and they would have replaced the shia govt with sunni.
Israel knows after sacking Assad, then the terrorists will remember that they are their enemies. There was a time much weapons was sent to Al-qaeda by Obama, they went and create a country (ISIS) instead of fighting Assad. The US started to arm the Kurdish against Isis to reclaim their territory.

The US, France and UK decided to remove Assad with their military force but Russia intervened, Russia was ready for war then, it was seriouse that it made Israeli government to start sharing gas masks to their citizens because Syria was armed with chemical weapons then.

When Russia intervened, the UK was first to withdraw, followed by Obama, France had no option. France was also ready to attack Syria, they were busy convincing their allies to go ahead despite Russian intervention but their allies don't want direct confrontation with Russia.

Non of these leaders care about Islam or religion, including the ones from Iran or Saudi. They are Just playing politics with it because Islam have rooms for political games.

Russia was only protecting the Shia Islamic government to prevent the West from taking over Syria and having access to more energy and depend less on Russia.

Like I always say, the Islamic world(Türkiye) wants to take over Nigeria through the Sokoto Caliphate and Jànjaweed,
like I said again, who ever control and have influence in Nigeria will have a great influence in the world, Nigeria is a potential giant.

Jihadist from the Sahel are sacking villages belonging to indigenous Christians in Middle Belt,
Villages in core North are occupied by Islamic terrorists, the villagers are forced to pay tax or levy to the Islamic terrorists, Nigerian soldiers can't go to those places by foot. This same soldiers are ready to fight any group who takes up arms in self defense. they are quick to in tagging any security set up to counter the jihadists as terrorists then deal with them, in North West if indigenous Hausa people set up security for themselves against the Fulani jihadist then the police and army controlled by Fulani will destroy it immediately.
As it stands now the North West own this country base on structure, it doesn't matter who is there, the person will always be a puppet.


We flow with MSM's views without discussing our local matter.
If 2 people is killed in Palestine, the MSM of the world will cover it and have it on their front pages, Aljazeera for instance will write more than 5 different headlines about it. But is over 30 people mostly women and children are killed by sponsored Islamic terrorists, MSM won't give a damn about it, if Aljazeera wants to report it they will twist it and say it's farmers vs herders clash and put it on the back page so people don't see it.
As it stands now, both the Eastern and Western players don't care about us.

I'm just saying people should stop flowing with the narrative of the big players who don't share our interest.

Let's start supporting our local struggles.
