The Global Hypocrisy Towards Paris Terror Attacks! by ThePENGENIUS(m): 10:54pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
I deeply empathize with the nation of France, more especially the people of París, on the "unfortunate" brutal inhumane attacks. But something else still irks me: WHY ALL THE HYPOCRITICAL ATTENTION Every day thousands of people, refugees die in Syria, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan and even Nigeria. People get their heads brutally hacked off, suicide bombings and terrorist attacks ravage innocent lives. PRECIOUS LIVES ARE LOST! Yet the international community and pretty much every major organization that stands for world peace and order, UN, EU, NATO etc, all turn a blind eye. No one bats an eyelid. But here we are today, France is struck by what we have termed "Day of Terror" and everyone is losing their heads. What about Nigeria that has experienced (and still continues to experience) DAYS of terror. Do certain lives matter more than others?? Are some lives more expendable than others?? Are certain regions designed for terror?? Don't get me wrong, I certainly feel sorry for the lost French lives, but so do I feel for the lost Arabs, Syrian, Afghanistan and Nigerian lives lost in terror. What a world! I rest my case... *****Update **** Facebook just officially made matters worse. Offer to provide me a "temporary France commiseration profile picture?" This is utterly despicable! *spits* Cc: ishilove, lalasticlala 11 Likes 1 Share |

Buhari was quick to condemn the attacks today. He is still to comment on over 1,000 deaths in Nigeria from Fulani herdsmen. http://www.naijiant.com/articles/our-lives-are-more-important-than-yours/ 2 Likes |

that's it hypocrisy everywhere in the world, what they created is finally coming to them. look at even buhari having the impetus and moral grounds to criticize the attacks, while Fulani terrorist are terrorizing and killing Nigerians daily which he is yet to criticize. smh 1 Like |

ThePENGENIUS: The problem with thinking this way is that if you expect 'the world' to grieve with you, you must be prepared for their 'coalitions' of interfering, 'sympathetic' nations, and their military adventurism.... That also carries its own problems (eg Iraq). |

Let the French bury their dead and treat their wounded. I'm more concerned about what happens inside Nigerian border. 1 Like |

ThePENGENIUS:are you a learner why pretend like you don't know that some fingers now equal than others. more contribution more importance if you had two chickens 1 producing 300 eggs and 1 barren which would you cherish more it is what it is if Africans want to be taken seriously they need to stop pity party articles like yours and git their head in the game |

ThePENGENIUS: Your sentiment is blinding you from the apparent. It's a big deal because they are not used to it (it's actually news), Europe is seen as generally safe and in comparison it is. Think of the first time Boko Haram detonated a bomb in Nigeria and we were all shocked because we never thought such a thing could happen in Nigeria because we assumed Nigerians "love life too much". Well . . . nowadays it happens every now and again and it really isn't news anymore. That is it, no need to write unecessary speeches, and plus Europe and the West in general have a developed media industry and can give their stories global reach. |

,@OP, i know that feeling like i was confused when Nigerians gathered to protest the xenophobia attacks in South Africa. How ever the Fulani Jihardists cum herdsmen are doing worse in Nigeria and nobody has organised any protests. Those of us who try to speak out are called Fulani hater and even hater of the north. When I raised the issue here, some said I was justifying the killings in SA the truth is this, "some animals are more eaqual than others" as for me, we as Africans must take our destinies into our hands. |
Re: The Global Hypocrisy Towards Paris Terror Attacks! by blowjanet: 10:30pm On Nov 15, 2015 |
why people protested is cuz SA has alot of investment in Nigeria which contributes to their economy indirectly. Plus must of us in Nigeria have family in South Africa and alot of nigerians have businesses in south africa especially Igbo and Edo men, alot of Nigerians work in SA, plus there were two nigerians that were brutalized. noblezone: |

So when Mrs Obama held up a "Bring back our girls" poster she was just being hypocritical ? How many influential people around the world held up that poster, were they being hypocritical or trying to commiserate with us ? |
