Foreign Affairs / Re: Why Do 22 Arab Countries Fear Israel So Much ? by Babalegba(m): 4:16pm On Sep 29

So, what stops the arabs from having a powerful lobby in the Congress?
What you called fallacies is actually a mystery that's beyond your human imagination and sense of reason.
Arabs are not indigenous to the US so their political capital there is extremely limited. I could only laugh out loud at the second part of your post. There is no mystery ongoing in the American Israeli relationship.Fact of the matter is that most morally upright people have realized that Israel is committing great evil in that region and their actions are causing others to do evil as well.
Anyway from what I read in the Bible, God does not need human help or weapons. He send out few Jews to defeat larger armies and David faced Goliath more or less unarmed considering the military capabilities of the day.

You should have asked yourself what is the secret behind America's interest and attachment to Israel.
And how are you sure Iran will be able to eventually acquire nukes?
How are you sure that America and Israel are not currently developing super advanced technologies to tame nuclear weapons?
There is no secret to America's interest in Israel, it's got all to do with the powerful Jewish lobby in Congress. A lot of Jews in the US are now protesting against Israel anyway unable to stomach the oppression and evil done in their name.
Like I mentioned earlier, God of the Bible does not fight wars with might and weapons so a lot of Christian beliefs about the situation are mere fallacies.
If Israel and US want to make nuclear missiles obsolete then they'll need to hurry up. Time is not on their side. It's far better for them to have fairer, equitable and more humane policies though.

Isreali military emerged victorious after the Yom kippur war 7day with out america. Syria lost its surface to air missile to isreal
That was then, moreover America was always in the background supplying weapons and intelligence during that war. Military capabilities and combat readiness is different now.
I remember south Africa was always winning against the angolans until America turned it's back against South Africa and refused to give them satellite information about troop movements and the south African army got mauled..
Anyway my point is that the current Israel is not a good nation and will eventually get it's comeuppance like all evil entities. I'm Christian and used to have a very different view of Israel but realized that things don't add up as I got older. Most neutral people in the world now have a negative view of Israel. I don't like oppressors no matter who they are. Iran would get nuclear weapons soon and the day of reckoning will be upon all creation.

Masterstroke4:
The Arab World consists of 22 countries in the Middle East and North Africa: Algeria,
Bahrain,
The Comoros Islands,
Djibouti,
Egypt,
Iraq,
Jordan,
Kuwait,
Lebanon,
Libya,
Morocco,
Mauritania,
Oman,
Palestine,
Qatar,
Saudi Arabia,
Somalia,
Sudan,
Syria,
Tunisia,
The United Arab Emirates,
Yemen.

The area of Arab states(Gulf Cooperation Council countries) combined is around 26,70,000 sq km, whereas the land area of Israel is estimated to be approximately 20,700 sq km only.
As from the area figures it is known that Israel is 130 times smaller than the area of the GCC countries.

The countries in GCC are:
Bahrain
Qatar
Kuwait
Oman
Saudi Arabia.
United Arab Emirates and other Arab League countries like Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, Libya, Algeria, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Sudan, Jordan, and Turkey.

The combined population of these countries is 56,000,000, whereas Israel is only 8,120,000.

Now, comparing the economic aspects, the GDP of GCC countries combined is 3.65 trillion dollars, where it's only 331 million dollars.
The military expenditure of GCC countries is 183 million dollars, and in Israel, it's only 17.2 million dollars.

Apart from these, the Gulf countries have geographic advantages with connectivity from all sides. Major trade corridors pass through the region, whereas Israel is surrounded by enemy countries from all sides.
Even though having such advantages, one might wonder why the Arabs would be scared of Israel.

The significant reason behind this is the technological advancement of Israel over the Gulf states.
Due to this, the Israel armed forces are much more advanced than the Arabs.
The nuclear warheads are a major advantage for Israel, which has a count of 200.

In the case of GCC, it possesses a single-digit number of nuclear warheads total combined. In the case of Israel, it develops its weapons for defence and research, but the weapons and other military equipment of Arab countries are usually purchased from other countries. Due to this, even though the Arab states spend huge amounts on defence, they are backwards compared to Israel.
Israel is well known for its grade missiles and tanks, which can outnumber a larger force.
It is a major exporter of arms and defence equipment in the other hand.
Countries like India, Vietnam, Philippines are major buyers of it. This contributes to Israel's economy.

Israel is A Small Nation But Mighty In Warfare, Striking Fear in its Enemies.

It is evident from history that the Arab -Israel conflict of 1969 that how this small nation not only defended its territory but also managed to capture a large portion of Arab territory.
This was later resolved through peace treaties where the annexed land was freed on conditions. Thus, from this, the dispute continues till now within the region.
In which Israel managed to shift the geopolitical power in the region.

Thus the past incidents and the recent figures show the superiority of Israel over Arab states and point out why Arabs should be scared of Israel
Your analysis is wrong. The Arab states fear America not Israel. Without the u.s.a backing, Israel would be obliterated within days.
I used to think God was their military architect before but then realized that God does not fight with might of arms and that America is always lurking around there with aircraft carriers and marines.
The game will be up when Iran acquires nuclear weapons in the not too distant future and all bets will be off.

SmartyPants:


2 children is the hundreds of civilians you claimed were harmed? The death of a single child is a most regrettable occurrence but you don't need to lie so shamelessly!
It was stupid and evil to detonate pagers on such a mass scale. Most of the injured are bound to be innocent.
I will make an illustration since you are finding it so difficult to understand a simple scenario. Let's say an Hamas member is driving a bus full of civilians and his pager explodes suddenly. What do you think will happen. I'm Christian but Israel has turned evil and should be corrected before the Arabs get nuclear technology which they are less than ten years away from.Stop supporting evil.

MANY have been injured in DAMASCUS as well, as this is a Hezbollah stronghold.

HISTORY HAS BEEN MADE BY ISRAEL. This is THE single largest simultaneous attack on a terrorist organization in recent times.


A STATE of EMERGENCY is declared in all of Lebanon’s hospitals.

So far 8 are Killed and Delivered to their Virgins.
Over 2800 Terrorists injured. Quit a lot of Blockos affected.


Sources report that Iran's ambassador to Lebanon was seriously injured during the attack in Lebanon!!!
Was he with a Hezebollah Terrorists pager? Time will tell


ISRAELI TECHNOLOGY doing Amazing things..

Hezebollah Terrorists and other iranian terror groups,
Who pass you pass you. Respect your Elders.

You are a pathetic individual always dishonoring God with your pathetic morally repugnant statements. So it is now okay to harm hundreds of innocent people just to get a few Hezbollah members.

He then ask me for my name which told him to pronounce which he didn't get it right, he then sighted and dropped the call. In the same minutes, I received a mail with OTP that if I am the person trying to perform a transaction on my account.
This account is new and i got it link to my account for AliExpress shopping..

Nutritional supplements donated by UNICEF for the use of children in Sokoto are being stolen and replaced with stones. The stolen goods are then sold in the market by unscrupulous traders while the children suffer from malnutrition.

Business / Re: Ekiti Oba Slashes Food Prices, Bans Traders’ Associations by Babalegba(m): 12:35am On Aug 13
budaatum:


Can someone please kindly inform kabiyesi that while its good that he has banned middle men who inflate prices, he has not exactly ordered that fertiliser be sold at uninflated prices, nor has he placed any control on land prices and labour and transport costs that contribute to the price of food in the market. And that if the prices he has ordered mean I sell at a loss, there are other markets where i can take my food to sell at a profit.
Fact of the matter is that traders are increasing prices arbitrarily and causing relentless inflation due to ignorance. Yes transport and labor costs has increased but production and transportation is being done in bulk so economy of scale should kick in as the cost is spread over multiple units of the products.
People are just too greedy.

Business / Ekiti Oba Slashes Food Prices, Bans Traders’ Associations by Babalegba(m): 10:41pm On Aug 12
The Ewi of Ado Ekiti, Oba Rufus Adejugbe, has cancelled various traders’ associations in markets in Ado Ekiti, the Ekiti State capital, intending to remove their undue control of prices and ensure farmers have direct access to traders.

Oba Adejugbe, who also ordered traders in the markets not to sell their foodstuff beyond stipulated prices, said the steps were necessary to regulate the high prices of foodstuff in the state capital.

The monarch, leading the Ewi-in-Council, gave the directive in Ado Ekiti on Monday during a meeting with the leadership and some members of the market women association, warned of sanctions for anybody who flouted the directives.

The Ewi-in-Council, which noted with dismay the reports from members of the public on the heartless attitudes of most of the traders leading to high food prices, said the directives were to correct the trend.

The Council, at the meeting, directed that henceforth “vegetables should not be sold more than N50; pepper, pepper N100; garri N700; while kilogramme of meat should be reduced to N4,500.”

Oba Adejugbe said, “Reports have it that traders, under the aegis of the associations, hide under middlemen to inflate the prices of goods such as tomatoes, pepper, vegetable, palm oil, locust beans, meat, garri, among others by dictating prices to the farmers that brought them to the markets for sale.

“We have taken these steps to make life bearable for residents of the town. I hereby direct the leadership of traders in the market to effect the directives. Chiefs will continue to monitor marketplaces to ensure strict implementation and sanction defaulters.
