That means your are naive and ignorant about Israel. There is a hierarchy in Israel. It's pointless to give details, because you're convinced white Israeli's care about random black Africans.

Igbo people are not going to live in Israel.

Yes Igbo language is an admixture of Ancient Hebrew, the evidence is there.

Our culture and indeed origin all point to Hebrew. Even our name Igbo sound like Hebrew.

All we want is to build road and airport, wen we want and to our taste, without drama and opposition from Yoruba and Hausa, in our land.

I am sure, we have had Igbo people with the name Gad before the British arrived.

Igbo is also an andmixture of French, moi and muwa mean the same thing (me), beaucoup and bukwu (many) mean the same thing. Igbo language is a Hebrew-French bastard.

I also believe that the word Igbo is actually derived from Hebrew.

Can anybody that disagree tell us where the word Igbo came from?

I dont want to here coincidence becos each time I conduct research on Hebrew and Igbo, the coincidence is always too much.


see my moniker on this thread to see coincidence of igbo and hebrew.

Using a Hebrew dictionary, I checked Ada - false. I checked Agu - false. I checked Ahia - false. Everything there is a falsehood. Anybody that knows anything about linguistics knows it is impossible for 2 entirely seperately evolved languages to have commonalities. There is such a thing as language family. Igbo is a Niger-Congo language. Hebrew is a Semitic one. They are about as likely to have common vocabulary as a tiger can have cubs with a cow. Wherever you copied that from, the person that wrote it is a fraud and charlatan.

The reason why you attach yourself to Israel is because you feel you have nothing to stand on on your own black Igbo self.

Then link the ancient Hebrew dictionary here, let us see. I won't simply take your word for it. Hebrew for starters for several centuries was a dead language which was revived by Zionists as the modern Israel was being founded. Jews in Europe spoke Yiddish. Link the ancient Hebrew dictionary here.

If Israel is looking for a Vassal state in Africa. If they are willing to accept support our liberation effort from the demonic grip of Nigeria, if claiming Jewish or converting to Jewish religion can help speed up the whole process, then I would say, bring it on.
No price is too much for freedom, there is always room for future negotiations. Ojukwu was wary of making a young Biafra a vassal state of USSR, that's one of the reasons we lost the war. Yet today, USSR no longer exists, and people like Cuba who aligned with them to achieve their aims, are today free.

We should avoid making a second mistake.
I'm really curious to know whether Israel is in any bit interested in Biafra, or are they just temporarily using us to force Nigeria to drop their support for Palestine?

Israel must know that in a world where almost everyone hates them, having a real ally who loves them not for economic or strategic reasons, but purely for fundamental reasons isn't bad.

Looking at it all holistically, is Israel really free from USA control. Because we know that USA will always stand with Britain, and we all know that Britain still has strong ties with the Fulani gate keepers of Nigeria.

Israel is not an imperial power. Their entire foreign policy posture is defensive against outside threats and will be incapable of projecting their power internationally. Not to mention the colonial era is long gone. There is nothing Israel are capable of doing to help the Biafran cause. They can't help us diplomatically seeing as they themselves are an international pariah due to their occupation of Palestinian territories. In many UN motions and resolutions, only the US support them. Not even the US' close Western allies like the UK or Germany or France do. They can't send us weapons. That would violate Nigeria's territorial sovereignty and I can't see how they'll go looking for trouble of countries that didn't provoke them.

More importantly, I'm struggling to understand the logic of our claiming a fraudulent identity that makes us a laughing stock under the belief Israel would somehow feel compelled to help us. Just because Nnamdi Kanu is a curiosity among a few Israeli media outlets doesn't mean the Israeli government have any interest in him and his madness (he's still spewing the "Jubrin" line).

Ahi Ancient Hebrew Ahia Igbo
The passage defined Ahi as u earlier claimed to mean brother but went further to explain that Ahi comes from Aki which means generous.

The article expanciate that Ahi became the major economic, social and cultural system.

Some sort of Trade Union with regulation on who should be accepted for membership.

Adding that, the Ahi way of thinking flourished amongst the artisan, Each Trade had its own Ahi Association.

In smaller towns they would either organise in groups of trades or all the trades would organise under the association.




The history of the Jews in Turkey (Turkish: Türkiye Yahudileri, Turkish Jews; Hebrew: יהודים טורקים‬ Yehudim Turkim, Ladino: Djudios Turkos) covers the 2,400 years that Jews have lived in what is now Turkey. There have been Jewish communities in Asia Minor since at least the 5th century BCE and many Spanish and Portuguese Jews expelled from Spain were welcomed into the Ottoman Empire (including regions part of modern Turkey) in the late 15th century, 20 centuries later, forming the bulk of the Ottoman Jews.

Today, the vast majority of Turkish Jews live in Israel, while modern-day Turkey continues to host a modest Jewish population

I don't understand that part either. So we have to miseducate our children and gullible Igbos that we're Jews, so that Israel will somehow magically come to our aid to free us from our Nigerian oppressors. The only thing of note Israel ever supported in Africa was South African apartheid. Israel was one of the closest allies of the South African apartheid government. Apart from the fact allying with us is useless (Israel is very often opposed by all nations, but America, in UN resolutions), how can one justify peddling a fraud like that?

As much as I am pro Biafra, I don't get IPOB.
They are moving with two tends that are counterproductive.
The multiethnic agenda and the Jewish agenda.
Both make Igbos a laughing stock.

My point is, we don't have to distort our history for support . I rather not have Biafra than accept a Jewish heritage.
Kanu said its Christianity that suppressed our Jewish religion.
I say no, rather it suppressed Igbo traditional religion. The shrines in my village look nothing like the Jewish temples and synagogues

We attach ourselves to Super Eagles cos they are Nigeria's representatives. Football support has nothing to do with winning or losing.
People support European clubs for entertainment because they like football and every football lover must naturally be attracted to particular teams.
People attach themselves to colonial religions because.......well, they've been taught from birth they'll go to hell if they don't believe in the Christian God or Allah.

All of this is different from claiming a heritage that is not your own. To be a Jew is not just about religion (even though there are Jewish converts). It is an ancient identity inseparable from that of the Jewish people. Their history (slavery in Egypt, several conquests by their Persian and Arab neighbors, suppression and exile by the Romans, battles for Jerusalem by the Crusaders, the Ottomans, the extermination of 6 million Jews in the Holocaust etc) is not our history. Their accomplishments are not our accomplishments. Their nation is not our nation (Israel is not known for their racial tolerance). I feel embarrassed that people will sit down here in Nigeria to appropriate the history and heritage of an alien civilization.

Fighting for Biafra should not have anything to do with inventing myths. That is an identity built on a lie.
