US PRESIDENT SIGNED EXECUTIVE 

ORDER ON

 CORRUPTION AND HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSE

- President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to block the properties of persons or entities involved in serious human rights abuse and corruption outside of the United States of America

The executive order frowns on the actions of individuals outside the US that threaten the stability of international political and economic system and violet human rights.

President Trump said the prevalence and severity of human rights abuse and corruption that have their source, in whole or in substantial part, outside the United States have reached such scope and gravity and threatens the stability of international political and economic systems.

The White House states that human rights abuse and corruption undermine the values that form an essential foundation of stable, secure, and functioning societies and have devastating impacts on individuals; weaken democratic institutions; degrade the rule of law; perpetuate violent conflicts; facilitate the activities of dangerous persons; and undermine economic markets.
“The United States seeks to impose tangible and significant consequences on those who commit serious human rights abuse or engage in corruption, as well as to protect the financial system of the United States from abuse by these same persons,” the Executive Order quoted President Trump.
He declared that the human rights abuse and corruption happening around the world as “unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States.”
President Trump’s move seeks to block all property and interest of persons listed in the order.
The order says, entities and individuals targeted are current or former government officials, or persons acting for or on behalf of such an official (s).

They are responsible for or complicit in, or has directly or indirectly engaged in corruption including misappropriation of states assets, shady contracts, or the extraction of natural resources, bribery, transfer or the facilitation of the transfer of the proceeds of corruption, the order states.

It also cautions individuals, entities or governments that have materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or services to or in support of corruption or human rights abuse.

Properties of said individuals will be blocked or may not be transferred, paid, exported or withdrawn as determine by the Secretary of the US Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General.

“All property and interests in property that are in the United States, that hereafter come within the United States, or that are or hereafter come within the possession or control of any United States person of the following persons are blocked and may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in,” the executive order states.

According to section two of the executive order, an alien or unrestricted immigrant and nonimmigrant entry into the United States that violet the order are suspended from entering the US.
Such persons shall be treated according to the presidential order and their entry is also suspended into the US as endorsed by the UN Security Council.

The order also expressed concern over the making of donations by targeted individuals, institutions or governments.
“...Any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order would seriously impair my ability to deal with the national emergency declared in this order, and I hereby prohibit such donations as provided by section 1 of this order,” President trump said.

It continues: “The making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services by, to, or for the benefit of any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order.”

The executive order also warns against the receipt of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services from any such person and warns against any transaction that evades or avoids, has the purpose of evading or avoiding, causes a violation of, or attempts to violate any of the prohibitions.
BIAFRA: NIGERIA'S  VOTE AGAINST ISRAEL IS A CALL

 FOR  AMERICAN GOVERNMENT AS A  WORLD POWER TO 

DECLARE BIAFRA A SOVEREIGN STATE REGARDLESS OF 

ANY INTERNATIONAL PROTOCOL

By Mazi Onyebuchi Eze

For Family Writers Press.

As the Nigerian government has defiantly chosen to pitch her tent against the biblical truth of ages by voting against Jerusalem as the capital city of Israel; the children of the most high God, I am emphatically calling on the government of United States of America as the world power and the government of Israel and their allies to declare total freedom of Biafra from Nigeria and recognize her as a sovereign nation in the world, regardless of any international protocols that may frown against the move.

With that, Nigeria government will feel the pain and respect American government for once. There is a great need for President Donald Trump of America and the  Prime Minister of Israel  Benjamin Natanyahu to as a matter of urgency declare Biafra sovereignty because Nigerian government has bitten more than she can chew in the side of Biafra human right violation and political marginalization over the years despite several warning from international  organizations especially the human right  organizations both in Nigeria and outside,  this frequent disobedience to international laws on the fundamental rights of every citizens by Nigerian government has in a way challenged the supremacy of the USA as the world number one nations of the world. The recent vote of  Nigerian government against Jerusalem as the capital city of Israel is a further prove of this, one will ask why Nigeria as a government would stand firmly against Israel and America despite the level of aid this two nations has given to her as a developing country, indeed it is high time the America government under the leadership of President Donald Trump disproved them by doing the needful as regard the struggle for Biafra restoration.


Nigerian government has defiantly continued treating American government and Israeli government without respect because of the duo deafening silence over Biafra issue. It was at the last United Nations General Assembly in New York City that all expectations were focused on  American government and other allies of America to publicly  condemn the barbaric slaughtering  of innocent Biafrans by the Nigerian army and other security agents but to no avail.
All these deafening silence of the western world countries on the issue of Biafra and the undemocratic process which Nigerian government continued applying on the matter continued making the principal officers of Nigerian government feel untouchable and basking of euphoria of being above international laws and at the same time believe that they can slap America and Israel even United Nations and go scot  free,  which now culminated in voting against Jerusalem as the capital city of Israel irrespective of what God said in the scripture and the stand of America as the world power. It is important for United States of America to override all the protocols governing sovereignty of nations and declare Biafra a sovereign nation and recognize her sovereignty. Nigeria government will not do anything because Nigeria government has disrespected American government and violated the international laws on human rights as documented by human right organizations, for too long hence the need for the declaration of independent state  of  Biafra will be  enough to remind Nigeria the level of the capability and that will equally serve as a punishment to them, knowing the rate of what they stand to lose on the Biafra exit from the evil contraption called Nigeria.


It is on news that the White House want to impose stiff sanctions on Nigeria, but I am of the opinion that the American government should just carve out Biafra territories out of Nigeria defunct federation and recognize her sovereignty as that is the only thing that United States of America will do to Nigerian government that will show her that America government is still the world power with absolute supremacy on Nigeria and every other member state of United Nation. When American government help to  restore Biafra as a sovereign nation,  the government of United States can forget about Nigeria or at best add her to the list of terrorists watch nations where Nigeria rightly belong. I personally want American government to understand that, as the Nigerian federation is an enclave of darkness needing no light in her, the sanction proposed on them by US government may not make much meaning to Nigeria government, but should American government declare Biafra sovereignty, then the  Arab world will join their fellow ally country Nigeria to make noise for some period of months and everything will vanish.

It is time for United States to override the United Nations obsolete constitutional rights to sovereign nations because United Nations has become incapacitated to enforce her laws on member nations and that is why their body language encourages impunity and breed oppression which is inherent in Nigerian government against Biafra agitators who are being decimated on daily bases and sent many to their dungeon prison with all manner of inhuman treatment. Let American government do the needful by shocking Nigeria government with declaration of independence for Biafra just as they did on the side of Israel by declaring the ownership of Jerusalem by Israel and stood on it,    Biafrans all over the world as well as lovers of freedom are looking forward to seeing the right thing done over this issue because many lives have been lost and lot of sacrifices made and it will be a big problem to humanity should America and Israel continue to keep mute over the matter.
It is true that if American government declare Biafra sovereign today, many countries may condemn the action but no nation under the earth  will reverse it. Biafra people are eagerly waiting to become strong ally to America, Israel, Russia and other nations that stand for justice and the progress of the earth when Biafra is totally restored. All the political, economic and other bilateral interest of all the nations of the world which Biafra government will inherit from Nigerian government will be respected 100% when Biafra is restored. Let no nation fear Biafra restoration as Nigerian government propaganda machine has made Biafra people to look. Biafran people are the most peaceful and nonviolent people all over the world and they are ready and willing to impact the world and humanity positively. All that withhold the manifestation of these is her total freedom and as we enter into 2018 in few days to come we anticipate a lot from America, Israel, Russhia, Germany, China, Japan and other nations of the world that stand on the path of justice.

God Bless America!
God Bless Israel!
God Bless Russia!
God Bless Biafra!

US senators tells Trump to stop financial 


aid To all Muslim countries,call them 


wicked ingrates 



American Senator, Rand Paul, backs Trump’s decision to cut all American aid to Pakistan.
He calls on Trump to cut all American aid to any country that hates America.
This is what he wrote on his Facebook page:
“Why are we giving money to the Palestinian Authority and Pakistan? I would take the money that we send to a lot of countries that aren’t necessarily our friends, like Pakistan – I would redirect that money into building roads and bridges here. I plan to introduce a bill to do just that.”.
Muslims all over Pakistan took to the streets to burn US flags after Trump cut all American aid to Pakistan.
A month ago Muslims also took to the streets of Pakistan to burn American flags, but at that time it was against the decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
Every year Muslims in Pakistan celebrate “Al Quds Day” in which they take to the streets to burn Israeli and American flags.
Nothing has changed apart from the fact that this time they hate America without being paid for it.
Well done Mr. President, you are one of the best presidents in US history.

Israel Is A Military Superpower 


For One Simple Reason:



‘Underwater’ Nuclear Weapons

Israel Is A Military Superpower 


For One Simple Reason:


‘Underwater’ Nuclear Weapons


Israel’s submarine corps is a tiny force with a big open secret: in all likelihood, it is armed with nuclear weapons. The five Dolphin-class submarines represent an ace in the hole for Israel, the ultimate guarantor of the country’s security, ensuring that if attacked with nukes, the tiny nation can strike back in kind.
Israel’s first nuclear weapons were completed by the early 1970s, and deployed among both free-fall aircraft bombs and Jericho ballistic missiles. The 1991 Persian Gulf War, which saw Iraqi Scuds and Al Hussein ballistic missiles raining down on Israeli cities, led Tel Aviv to conclude that the country needed a true nuclear triad of air-, land- and sea-based nukes to give the country’s nuclear deterrent maximum flexibility—and survivability.
The most survivable arm of the nuclear triad is typically the sea-based one, consisting of nuclear-armed submarines. Submarines can disappear for weeks or even months, taking up a highly classified patrol route while waiting for orders to launch their missiles. This so-called “second-strike capability” is built on the principle of nuclear deterrence and ensures potential enemies will think twice before attacking, knowing Israel’s submarines will be available to carry out revenge attacks.
The first three submarines were authorized before the Gulf War, in 1988, though it is not clear they were built with nuclear weapons in mind. After years of delays construction began in Germany instead of the United States as originally planned, with German combat systems instead of American ones. Most importantly, the project went ahead with German financing; Berlin reportedly felt obliged to finance two of the submarines, and split the third as lax German nonproliferation enforcement had partly enabled Iraq’s nuclear and chemical weapons program.
The first three submarines, DolphinLeviathan and Tekuma, were laid down in the early 1990s, but only entered service between 1999 and 2000. The submarines are 187 feet long, displace 1,720 tons submerged and have an operating depth of 1,148 feet. Sensors include the STN Atlas Elektronik CSU-90-1 sonar suite with the DBSQS-21D active and AN 5039A1 passive sonar systems. The Dolphin class also has PRS-3-15 passive ranging sonar and FAS-3-1 passive flank arrays.
Each has ten torpedo tubes in the bow, six standard 533-millimeter standard diameter tubes and four larger 650-millimeter torpedoes. The larger torpedo tubes are more than two feet wide, and reportedly double as ingress/egress chambers for divers. Armament is a mixture of German, American and Israeli weapons, including Seahake heavyweight wire-guided torpedoes and Harpoon antiship missiles. The authoritative Combat Fleets of the World claims the Dolphin subs may have the Triton fiber-optic guided-weapon system. With a range of more than nine miles, Triton allows submarines the ability to attack helicopters, surface ships and coastal targets.
The four large torpedo tubes are the key to Israel’s sea-based deterrent, and without them it’s unlikely the country would have nukes on submarines. The large tubes are used not only for laying mines and sending and receiving divers, but also to launch nuclear cruise missiles. In 2000, the U.S. Navy observed a missile launch from off the coast of Sri Lanka that traveled an estimated 932 miles. Exactly what this missile was is a matter of speculation, but the leading candidate is some advanced form of the Popeye missile.
Popeye was originally an air-launched ground-attack missile. Developed in the late 1980s, Popeye originally used a television camera or infrared seeker to deliver a 750-pound warhead to ranges of up to forty-five miles. The United States Air Force bought 154 Popeye missiles to arm B-52 bombers for conventional attacks, renaming them the AGM-142 Raptor. Israel’s nuclear deterrent is thought to be based on cruise missile version of Popeye, Popeye Turbo, which has a turbofan engine for long-distance flight.
There is also the possibility the nuclear armament is based on the Gabriel antiship missile, and there are also reports that Harpoon missiles were modified to carry nuclear weapons. Nobody appears to know for sure what missile is operational, only that it was observed and that arming them with nuclear weapons is a logical conclusion. The yield of the nuclear warhead on these missiles is unknown, but estimates float around the two-hundred-kiloton mark, which would make them roughly fourteen times more powerful than the bomb dropped on Hiroshima.
Whatever the missile, a 932-mile range gives it the ability—just barely—to strike the Iranian capital of Tehran, as well as the holy city of Qom and the northern city of Tabriz, from a position off the coast of Syria. (Iran’s pursuit of nuclear arms is likely the main and enduring driver of Israel’s second strike capability.) That isn’t an ideal firing position, and it’s been seventeen years since the missile’s first flight, so it’s also reasonable to assume that the weapon’s range has been extended to the point where it can launch against Tehran and even more Iranian cities from a relatively safe location.
Having three submarines in operation generally means at least one is at sea at any particular time, a necessity for a sea-based nuclear deterrent. The Dolphin class reportedly carries up to sixteen torpedoes and missiles; if the submarines’ primary task is nuclear deterrence, half of its weapons space might be allocated for carrying nukes. The result is that at any given time Tehran is likely in the nuclear crosshairs of an Israeli submarine.

The second set of Dolphin submarines, Dolphin II , was ordered in the mid-2000s. These subs are virtually identical to the previous class except for the addition of a thirty-six-foot-long plug in the hull to accommodate an air independent propulsion (AIP) system, allowing the submarine to operate submerged for much longer periods than diesel electric subs without it. According to Der Spiegel , the Dolphin II subs can stay underwater for up to eighteen days. In addition to a stretch configuration and AIP, Dolphin IIs weigh approximately 20 percent more and have dedicated diver-lockout chambers.
The German government has just recently given the go-ahead for yet another set of three more Dolphins. These new submarines should be ready just as the three first-generation boats are aging out, ensuring that Israel has a fleet of six submarines available for the foreseeable future. Israel’s sea-based nuclear deterrent is here to stay.
