Why does Nigeria still have such a hard time putting down its domestic terrorist groups? Just how militarily capable are Boko Haram and ISWAP compared to the Nigerian military?
It's right there in the name
>1,000,000 km^2 and no real border, that means even more territory>larger than France and Germany combined and with a population of 240 million, like France+Germany+UK >people fighting against those groups don't want to live there, meanwhile the other side is well established as locals
>>64473185This, pretty much. Nigeria basically should have been originally divided into two separate countries: one for the Christian and generally more developed coastal regions, and one for the inland Muslims with more historical ties to the Sahara and surrounding Muslim nations.
>>64473172Nigerian society is rampantly corrupt. that's 90% of the cause of all uncivil society.
>>64473243Nigeria is one of the more blatant examples of the British lazily drawing the map for a former colony before fucking off back home.
>>64473172They're mostly Muslims who can't do shitThe Christian South runs the economy
>>64473172Nigeria is Russia without snow and less AIDS.
>>64473172Because it's a corrupt shithole like every other sub-Saharan "nation". They have no control beyond major cities beside hoping really hard that nobody tries anything.
>>64473464Russia at least keeps its Muzzies in check enough that they don't operate as pseudo-autonomous terrorist states within its borders.
>>64473516>Russia at least keeps its Muzzies in check enough that they don't operate as pseudo-autonomous terrorist states within its borders.Fucking lmao. There is quite a prominent one actually. Khadirov makes a big show of being loyal to Putin, but within Chechnya, Russia does not rule.
>>64473516Russia pays their muslims not to spazz.
>>64473516LMAOWhat image/gif/webm would you like anon?>Churka type A beheading on Russian conscript>Churka type B carrying beheaded little girls head around>Churka type C massacring movie goers
>>64473440But I thought diversity was our strength.
>>64473555>>Churka type B carrying beheaded little girls head aroundWhat the fuck, was this recent?
>>64473172resource curse X corruption X LOL borders because the euros fucking loved drawing borders that made no fucking sense or specifically to fuck with the locals so they were easier to control
>>64473172even flipland had a better chance against ISIS. Took them 5 months though. Marawi 2017
>>64473516>russia keeps muslims in checkAHAHAHAHAHA
>>64475032Why do people type like this? You're not actually laughing.
>>64475047Yeah see there's this crazy thing called writing where you can put something into words without actually having to say it
>>64475055If you like to be an annoying little faggot via keyboard, mission accomplished.
>>64475061Why so people type like this? You're not actually a tough guy.
>>64475077>ESL moment
>>64474649>0 mention of Nigeria’s occupantsWant to know how I know you don’t live around Nigerians?
>>64475090>doesn't know what a typo is
>>64475105they're people, Europeans have spents thousands of years killing each other for often non-sensical reasons while complaining that the white people 50 miles down the road from them talk funny, behave strangely, dress weird and were thus less than them
>>64474982isis in nigeria is 10 times the size
>>64475157Cool, so you can then confirm that you don’t deal with Nigerians on a regular basis. It’s accurate to say that you are personally ignorant of Nigerians.
>>64475258Fulanis the main people doing all the kill don't leave africa they are Pastoral herds. So i'm wondering how you meant one
>>64474615idk but i've got images of them executing kids from 2015
>>64475364Well stop just talking about them and post.
>>64475371blue board, this is all you get. it's off topic to this thread anyways
>>64473559they're all niggers
>>64473516>Russia at least keeps its Muzzies in check enough that they don't operate as pseudo-autonomous terrorist states within its borders.NIGGA I CAN'T BREATHE KEK
>>64473440>>64473451>>64473243>Nigeria basically should have been originally divided into two separate countries: one for the Christian and generally more developed coastal regions, and one for the inland Muslims with more historical ties to the Sahara and surrounding Muslim nations.Only a matter of time before some retards brought this up.1/ No real conflict in Nigeria is along northern vs southern lines, so how is this remotely even relevant??2/ The dominant ethnicity in the south are Yoruba, and 40% of them are Muslim and 50% are Christian. The largest city Lagos is located in Yoruba territory.3/ The coastal regions are rich globally because of maritime trade and ease of travel, so obviously it's the same in modern Nigeria. However, the coastal south of Nigeria and West Africa was historically more primitive and backward. That's why the majority of them were able to be easily forced into Christianity.Since the north was actually more capable and politically self-reliant in comparison, the British had to cooperate with its leaders. You can't just create imaginary borders to box the north in.4/ If Northern Nigeria were landlocked, it's a direct incentive to invade and annex or settle the south. So there would be a much bigger conflict than the various crises that Nigeria is already in. More realistically, the borders would have never been accepted and enforced to begin with.5/ Throughout history across the world, people of the interior have invaded and conquered the coasts. It's already happened in West Africa before.6/ If Northern Nigeria merges with the regions to its own north in the Western Sahel, there's nothing that can stop it from annexing Southern Nigeria or perhaps Benin and Togo.
>>64473516The muzzie churkas keep the vatniggers in check. The Monke of Kreml has to pay massive amounts each year to the crime families in Dagestan and Chechnya for them to pretend to be local administration. The times the money dries up, muslim mafia wreak havoc all across moscow until Monke starts to paypig again.
>>64473516>Russia at least keeps its Muzzies in check
>>64475494This world continues to give me reasons to only hate these absolute animals of a religion who's only capability is violence and only path forward is finding new ways to commit said violence. It is only worse that we shame ourselves by the few that would dare apply the term 'human' so these things
>>64473172I'll give you a hint,NIGAlso >>64473185 >>64473324 >>64473464>>64473516What the fuck do you think Kadyrovites are?>>64473555Gimme all three, preferably in catbox.moe
>>64473516Chechens have higher authority then Russian military police. They can beat and rape Russian MPs all they want with no repercussions.
>>64473172Nigeria is about the size of Texas and California out together, which is to say, pretty big.They have a GDP on par with the state of Kentucky. Just the state.Big+poor=hard to police effectively.
