Iran supreme leader Khamenei: Israel will face ‘painful fate’

Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, vowed “severe punishment" for an Israeli attack that he called a crime.

"The evil and bloody hand of the Zionist regime committed a crime in our beloved country at dawn today, once again revealing its wicked nature by targeting residential areas. This regime must await severe punishment," he said in a statement hours after Israeli strikes.

“By God’s will, the powerful arm of the Islamic Republic’s armed forces will not let it go unpunished,” he said.

“In the enemy’s attacks, a number of commanders and scientists were martyred. Their successors and colleagues will immediately continue their duties, God willing,” he said. “With this crime, the Zionist regime has brought a bitter and painful fate upon itself, and it will certainly face it.”

Interesting time to be alive. If Iran dare respond to this trap, Iran will turn to Gaza and Lebanon.

If Iran launch 1000 missiles, only 1% will enter Israel, but if Israel does the same 99.8% will enter Iran.

Iran should think again

US officials tell news agencies that Israel has started attacking sites in Iran as blasts reported in Tehran.

The Israeli military has carried out several strikes targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities and military sites in and around the country’s capital, Tehran, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said.

In a prerecorded video message posted early Friday morning, Netanyahu said the strikes were aimed at hurting Iran’s nuclear infrastructure and ballistic missile factories.


“This operation will take as long as is needed to complete the task of fending off the threat of annihilation against us,” Netanyahu said.

An unnamed Israeli military official told the Reuters news agency that Israel struck “dozens” of nuclear and military targets early on Friday.

Iranian state-run news agency, Nour News, said several “loud explosions” have been reported in and around Iran’s capital. It added that Iran’s air defence system is on full alert, and all flights at Imam Khomeini international airport have been suspended.

The Israeli military also confirmed to The Times of Israel newspaper it had “launched an aerial campaign against Iran’s nuclear programme” in an operation dubbed “Nation of Lions”. The source told the outlet it needed to act against the “imminent threat” posed by Iran.

Iranian state-run media outlet Press TV confirmed that there have been several casualties, without providing a number.

An unnamed Israeli defence official said the strikes have likely killed of Iran’s general staff, including the chief of staff and several senior nuclear scientists.



Israel prepares for Iranian response

In a statement, Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz described the attacks as “preemptive” and said Israel was preparing for Iran’s response.

“A missile and UAV [drone] attack against the State of Israel and its civilian population is expected in the immediate timeframe,” Katz said.

Sirens have sounded across Israel as a warning to people, while the Israeli military announced in a post on X that Israel’s civil and public security guidelines had been changed to “essential activity” as of 3am local time (00:00 GMT).

“The guidelines include: a ban on educational activities, gatherings, and workplaces, except for essential businesses,” it said.

Israel’s Ministry of Transportation has confirmed that it has also closed the country’s airspace for arrivals and departures until further notice.

United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio claimed late on Thursday that the US was not involved in the strikes, as he urged Iran not to target American interests or personnel in the region.

“Tonight, Israel took unilateral action against Iran. We are not involved in strikes against Iran, and our top priority is protecting American forces in the region,” Rubio said in a statement.


“Let me be clear: Iran should not target US interests or personnel,” he added.

Al Jazeera’s correspondent in Washington, DC, Alan Fisher, said developments over recent days indicated that US President Donald Trump “was told that there was going to be some sort of strike”.

“[Just] 24 hours ago, the United States announced that it was going to start moving nonessential personnel out of the embassy in Baghdad [in Iraq], and also recommended that others in embassies around the region could also leave if they wish,” he said.

Fisher said President Trump did not “want Iran to get a nuclear weapon”, but he was “hoping” that nuclear talks would be able to avert a conflict.

“The big question now, of course, is how the United States reacts to any response from Iran. If they side with Israel, that suggests that the nuclear talks are done,” Fisher said.

“[US Special Envoy to the Middle East] Steve Witkoff still intends to hold another meeting with the Iranians at the weekend. Of course, it’ll be up to the Iranians to decide whether or not they want to go,” he added.

Iran’s Defence Minister Aziz Nasirzadeh said on Wednesday that his country would target US military bases in the region if nuclear talks break down and the US launches attacks.

“Some officials on the other side threaten conflict if negotiations don’t come to fruition. If a conflict is imposed on us … all US bases are within our reach, and we will boldly target them in host countries,” Nasirzadeh told reporters.

Washington and Tehran have held five rounds of nuclear talks since April as Trump seeks a deal that would place constraints on Iran’s uranium enrichment.

Some of this treat I guess is from old age from some of old women. I guess is old mentality and may not necessarily mean evil... But which ever one, a man shud always stay far from his mother. Staying together may breed breakaway. But some wife are intolerable too

No Igbo Girl or Lady can try this nonsense I can bet this. Igbo women are well cultured for this type of nonsense. They cant even fight for Obi Cubana. Take for example CHIOMA DAVIDO, Have u seen were she comes ONLINE to EMBARRAS HERSELF? EVEN REGINAL DANIEL TOO, MARRY IGBOS AND HAVE PEACE OF MIND

It is wrong for one to immortalize their name

Your not the one to do that, it is subsequent government if they access your work and it merit it

This looks like imposition of your name on others

Kemetian:


That is your British colonised head talking.

Equating the science of divination with ''satan''.

Ignorant nonsense.

How does Divination relate to science?? An Ancient practice of witchcraft that borrows vision to see the future?? Please go for more research and dont deceive the unaware people, unless your among them?

Let me tell you guys how these things work

Most of the big churches u see today that claimed to receive messages from God in the name of prophecy actually received those messages from Satan. That is why they can never give u solution to ur problems.

What they use to see vision is the spirit of Divination. 90% do use juju.

God can never Prophesy to u without showing u the solution to ur problems

Most people that go for this prophesy always comeback to their house with bigger problems instead of solution

Read your bible and meditate on it. Avoid seeking for a solution where their is non

Igbos are making us proud. Thank u TEMS Nwachukwu

This is what we call fruit of my labour

Your business.....

It is a Haram

This people and hard drug no wonder they kill freely under the influence of alcohol

Thunder fye u and unitttt that claimed 3million souls

Get out, all of u are the same

It is not about the money but about the trophy and medal each player received. What matters is the house of trophy which will remain in ages to come. Money can finish and memories erased, but house of trophy will remain till eternity

In the previous thread, people said it was a lie. Now they know it is the truth. Igbos don't protect evil. If it is in the other tribe, they will protect the man and make him chief negotiator of Bandits

A region that claimed to have strong men like Tompolo, Asari Dokubo and others but cannot mediate and bring tranquility, it is shameful..... If the elder statemen had done there job well, the arrogancy Wike would have been tamed through dialogue and the shameful proclamation of Sole by Tinubu wouldnt have even take place.

Militants failed, statemen failed, TINUBU and WIKE stylishly ceased the opportunity

helinues:
Zoo treatment is yet to be melted on Kanu.

7 REASONS WHY NNAMDI KANU MAY NOT BE JAILED
1.Extraordinary Rendition (Kidnapping) from Kenya to Nigeria
Explanation: Nnamdi Kanu was forcibly taken from Kenya to Nigeria in June 2021, without following established extradition procedures under international and domestic law.

Legal Implication: This act constitutes extraordinary rendition, which is illegal under international law and violates Nigeria’s Extradition Act (1967) and Kenya’s legal framework.

Effect on Trial: It undermines the jurisdiction and legitimacy of the trial process, as courts in many jurisdictions hold that no individual should be tried if brought before the court through an unlawful process.

2. Court Ruling: He is Not a Terrorist
Explanation: Courts have not found Nnamdi Kanu guilty of terrorism, and legal representatives argue there is no valid court judgment declaring him a terrorist or IPOB a terrorist group, particularly outside Nigeria.

International Position: IPOB is not listed as a terrorist organization by the United Nations, the African Union, the United Kingdom, the European Union, or the United States.

Effect on Charges: Without a legal classification as a terrorist and in the absence of valid evidence of terrorism, charges under terrorism law may not stand in an impartial court.

3. Flight from Nigeria in 2017 Due to Threat to Life
Explanation: In 2017, Nnamdi Kanu’s residence was raided by the Nigerian military under Operation Python Dance, resulting in casualties and injuries.

Human Rights Context: He fled Nigeria on the grounds of imminent threat to his life, which is a recognized justification under international human rights law for seeking asylum or safety abroad.

Legal Perspective: His departure from Nigeria did not amount to jumping bail in the classical sense because it was motivated by state violence, not an attempt to evade justice.

4. Federal Court of Appeal Ruling (October 2022)
Explanation: The Court of Appeal in Abuja held that the federal government violated local and international laws by forcibly returning Kanu to Nigeria.

Outcome: The court dismissed the remaining charges, ordered his release, and ruled that the trial court had no jurisdiction to continue with the matter.

Legal Effect: This ruling s the argument that any further detention or prosecution is illegal, unless reversed by a higher court, such as the Supreme Court.

5. Violation of His Fundamental Rights
Explanation: Nnamdi Kanu’s legal team and international observers argue that his rights to fair trial, liberty, and dignity under Section 36 and Section 35 of the Nigerian Constitution, as well as Article 6 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights, were violated.

Effect on Trial: A trial based on flawed procedures and illegal detention cannot produce a valid conviction under the Nigerian Constitution.

6. Health Concerns and Inhumane Detention Conditions
Explanation: Reports from his legal team and family indicate serious health complications, including heart conditions.

Detention Conditions: His detention conditions have been described as unfit for human health, with limited access to medical care.

Legal Consequences: Continued detention in such conditions could constitute cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment, in violation of Nigerian law and international conventions.

7. Political Dimensions of the Case
Explanation: Several observers and human rights organizations believe the charges and prolonged detention are politically motivated, rather than based on substantive criminal conduct.

International Reaction: The United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention called for his unconditional release and compensation, describing his detention as a violation of international law.

After 15 years as a member of Nairaland, I finally managed to be the second commenter . I dedicate this small moment in honour and remembrance of the gallant officers who have lost their lives unjustly in Nigeria. May their sacrifices never be forgotten.

Our parents filled our childhood with wild stories that made us scared of everything—from eating mangoes to looking in mirrors at night. These funny myths were their clever way of keeping us on track, and even now, we can’t help but laugh (and cringe) at how much we believed them. Despite the fact that this are not factual, most of us cant still try this practices even as we have grown to adulthood. For example our parent told us that whoever took soft drink like minerals after eating mango will die. Despite been fallacious, none of us had ever attempted to try it even as we have advanced to adulthood.

Here are the other 21 lies our parents told us


1. If you drink garri or coke after eating mango, you'll d!e.

2. You must throw your fallen tooth on the roof before it can grow back.

3. When you sing & wave to the egret birds, you'll get white spots on your fingernails.

4. If it is raining and there is sun at the same time, it means that a lion or monkey is giving birth.

5. India won Nigeria 99-1 in a football match.

6. When you bend and look back in between your legs, you'll see spirits.

7. A mother and her son breaking firewood in the Moon as punishment, because they went to the farm on a Sunday and the Moon carried them.

8. Don't wear ruber bands because it drains blood.

9. If you eat while kneeling, you will never get satisfied because the devīl will be taking some.

10. If you blow air inside a pencil sharpener, it won't sharpen pencils anymore.

11. If anyone jumps or crosses you while you're sitting or lying down on the floor, you will never grow tall again until the person repeats the process.

12. If your parents send you on an errand and you came back late, to escape floggīng or punishment, you need to tie together certain leaves in the bush.

13. If you come to school late, in order not to feel pains during flogging, you need to put a stone in your mouth.

14. When you swallow a seed, especially African star apple seeds (Udara), it will germinate and grow in your stomach.

15. The coconut water is only for the elders.

16. As a young girl, if a boy touches you, it'll result to pregnancy.

17. If you whistle at night, you're calling the evīl spirits and serpents.

18. If someone bites you while fighting and you rub a fowl faeces on it, the person's teeths will fall off.

19. If you sweep the room late in the night, all your blessings will go away.

20. If you look at the mirror at night, you'll see a ghost.

21. If you eat Turkey's meat without burying the head, it will turn to a snake.

In the Bible Genesis 29:23, Leah slept with Jacob, although the circumstances of their union were a result of deception. Jacob, who was in love with Rachel, was tricked by Laban, Rachel's father, into marrying Leah instead. Laban switched Leah for Rachel on their wedding night, and Jacob was unaware until the morning. Later, Leah and Jacob had several children together.

Reading down to Genesis 29:15-35 ERV In the morning Jacob saw that it was Leah he had slept with, and he said to Laban, “You have tricked me. I worked hard for you so that I could marry Rachel. Why Did you trick me?..........


The question is How can you make love till day break without seeing the face of the woman your making love with. And again, how can Leah claimed she was sleeping all through the night without knowing that a man is untop riding her all through the night. Remeber, Jacob had previously "loved" Rachael so to my own understanding, He supposed to know the smell and body size of the woman He claimed to love.

Who is to be blamed? Leah? or Jacob?
Who is the liar here Leah or Jacob?
