As the 2012 Olympics is scheduled for this city, how is the world sure that this country can provide safety to thousands that will be hosted. Should the Olympic committee revote for another venue?

Who should they revote for? A terrorist free nation? Where on earth is such a nation? This people will go to any lenght to disrupt organized society. They want us all to return to the days of cave men.

The only language they understand is fire for fire.

Perhaps, it is time for Tony Blair and his fellow Brits to tell the world the number of innocent Iraqis they slaughtered in the last few months alone. Here, 37 Brits died, and you think the world should stand still!

I condemn terrorism wherever it takes place, whether it is the US-British state-sponsored terrorism now going on in Iraq, or the killing of innocent British citizens in London yesterday. You cannot declare an unprovoked war against another country, killing innocent civilians and taking the war to all corners of that country and expect that the war will not reach your own cities.

Chicken has come home to roost,evil the British government committed against the Biafra during the nigeria civil war will not go unpunished.I don't give a damn to what to any muslim person or their country neither do i care about British government. The british government backed the northern nigeria muslim during the 60's conflict and equally supplied them arms to slaughter innocent biafra christian civilians, so why are they crying? I thought muslims are their friend this is what biafran civilians saw in the 60's and it is still happening up to this day. I repeat the chicken has come home to roost.

I agree with you ngborogwu. The chicken has indeed come home to roost. You cannot visit violence (directly or otherwise) on distant lands without opening yourself up. However, one has to be conscious of the fact that the British pple were the ones directly targeted, attacked and killed and not the G8 leaders who were also in the country at the time. In addition, the British pple protested en masse against the war in Iraq and indeed against the war waged against Biafra. In fact, John Lennon, a member of the famous Beatles band, refused to accept an MBE from the Queen because of Britain’s interference. His exact words were:
"I am returning this MBE in protest against Britain's involvement in the Nigeria-Biafra thing [and] against our support of America in Vietnam.... With love, John Lennon of Bag."
So, as much as I’d like Britain ‘punished’ for their self serving behaviour all over the world, this punishment should be restricted to its leaders who are actually responsible for these policies. They do after all usually go against the wishes of their people. Think of it for moment, would you think it fair to die for the mistakes Obasanjo makes simply because you are Nigerian even though you didn’t agree with the policy directions in the first place? Being ignored by your leader is a slap in the face and having to pay the ultimate price for that leader’s antics is simply unpardonable. I sympathise, nay empathise, with the British public who did no 'wrong' other than be British. Tony Blair has more blood on his hands just like Obasanjo has blood on his hands for the hundreds of ndiigbo that are killed in the North every year for no other reason than their ethnicity and/or religion.

Crazy Puke,

I thought you would miss MeBiafran sooner or later. You gotta admit that the guy's got style. Don't worry, he'll be back soon with both guns blazing. Just don't you get in his cross-hairs. So far you've been a fairly good boy, so I'll put in a good word for you. And it's just like he always said...the place isn't the same without him.

BTW, you're right, you're an un-educated one.

Umu Biafra,

One hopes that the near miss involving Air France and Cattle at PH International Airport on 7/6 is not an attempt at ingenious terrorism, else what would cattle and its rearers be doing on the tarmac and the vicinity of an International Airport at 4 a.m?

Those investigating the incident should explore this angle too and look at the timeline with the G8 meeting and the bombings in London.

As per the bombing in London, the terrorists have again proved that they can do their thing anywhere they choose and at their own timing. Too bad for all of humanity!

Hahahahahahaaaaa! Here you go again with your venom and you still have the guts to claim decorum. I am not missing MeBiafran, I miss the rantings of a cry baby. Enough?

Duke,

For me, spewing venom is a lot different from poking a little fun; but since you mentioned it, I am attempting to write in a more ascendant style than I have of late, a return, if you will, to my normal affable self, minus the effect of the contradiction of fanatical and nonsensical voices, like yours for example, against Biafran Actualization.

Greg,

You need to have your head examined properly and make sure you don't force words into my mouth. Where in all my posts have I denounced or spoken ill of "Biafra Actualization"? My thing is that I respect every ethnic group's right or agitation for self-reliance as long as it's done the right and acceptable way.

Duke,

It's no secret that in many of your posts you seem to put forward an anti-Biafran sentiment. Let me refresh your memory...

quote:
Yes, I am the one and only Crazy Duke. You got a problem with that, chef? Your ilk are the ones who will start fighting for Biafra when the war is over, and you ever wonder why the story has taken a sudden turn?
Duke, I guess from your statement above, anyone fighting for Biafra(Biafran Actualization) after 1970 is presumed by you to be of a certain ilk, or is someone else writing your posts for you and putting words in your mouth?

You know Duke, I just read the most disgusting and brutish commentary of a muslim hausa on another website. His unbridled hatred of Igbos mixed with his crude prophecies about how Igbos would be slaughtered by Nigeria again if they ever tried to rise up against their oppressors was chilling; and though I'd like to requite him(in ways I won't mention here for decorum's sake) for his sentiments, his honesty was quite refreshing, and quite unlike the hypocrisy of some who think things in their hearts but are not honest enough to 'fess up.

We should not be misled by liars. Tony Blair said that terrorists wanted to change the way of life of the West. How many people would buy that lie?

One would expect him to say that even the closest neighbour could constitute terrorists or allow terrorists to infiltrate into Britain in protest for losing Olympic bid. But do not be deceived by what they say, they are thinking what we are thinking.

What is strange is that the British governments have never opposed to attacking/harming people who did not harm them in any way.

When the Brits were called in Afghan, they did not refuse. In the Iraqi first war, the Brits were there. In the present invasion of Iraq, the Brits once again lied to their people in order to participate. When the U.S. and Belgium wanted to kill Patrice Lumumba, Britain participated. Britain was behind Igbo/Nigeria tragedy. The British attitude is very surprising indeed.

Just heard on the news that some Nigerians are missing, feared dead. It's such a shame that we have to be caught up in all this foolishness. We 'escaped' Obasanjo's Nigeria only to become embroiled in Blair's Britain.

We have now learned that it was British suicide bombers that carried out the London attacks. Does this mean that Britain is now a terrorist nation or is that term only reserved for Arab countries?

Fumi,

Very good question! Let's not also forget that a couple of British 'jihadists' were involved in a suicide bombing in Israel + the blokes involved in the shoe bomb (non)event!
