…What are the implications of this new diplomatic reality for Nigeria and Nigerians?
The Search
Solve this riddle if you can.
In 2015 . . . .
Barack Obama signs a deal with Iran, lifts sanctions on them, gives the Ayatollahs $150 billion in cash and access to economic goodies they had been denied for years — and the mainstream media hails the deal as good for America, good for Israel, good for the Middle East, good for global peace, and much more cheaper and safer than going to war with Iran to stop their nuclear weapons programme.
Fast forward to 2019.
The mainstream media maintains a criminal and well coordinated and conspiratorial silence over the fact that, since 2015, Iran has been using the Houthis of Yemen to shoot missiles at Saudi Arabia — virtually every day!
The only time the mainstream media is forced to report the news is when the missiles manage to hit the capital of Saudi — and that has only happened once. Of course, Saudi Arabia gets military help from the United States and several European countries. Except they want to be annihilated, Saudi Arabia has to fight back — and they have been fighting back.
Now comes the riddle:
Although the mainstream media studiously fails to let the world know that Saudi Arabia is bleeding, losing men, fighting a war, and being harassed almost daily by missile attacks, the airwaves go on overdrive anytime Saudi planes hit targets and inflict collateral damage — meaning that civilians get killed. More than this, the mainstream media so muddles up the news that, except you have access to facts on the ground, you will think that Saudi Arabian pilots get bored once in a while and just fly out in their warplanes to bomb targets in Yemen. From the way the news is reported, you will never know that the air raids conducted by the Saudis are always in response to missile attacks — or probably as preemptive strikes.
Now, why would the mainstream media take such a hostile stance against Saudi Arabia?
Why would the mainstream media exaggerate the arguable misdeeds of Saudi Arabia and under-report or completely ignore their distress?
And when did this begin?
Does this hostile attitude towards Saudi Arabia have anything to do with their recent romance with the State of Israel?
Why is President Donald Trump so protective of Saudi Arabia that he even has to publicly chastise Crown Prince Ibn Salman — just so the media cannot say he is indulging the Saudis?
Notice the camps that have begun to crystalize — and their respective constituents:
Camp 1: Donald Trump, Conservative America, State of Israel, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (and much of the Sunni Muslim world, apart from Qatar, Turkey, and maybe Sudan).
Camp 2. Iran, some countries of Europe, the international mainstream media, and Turkey — with Russia and China on standby to do anything, as long as it is against America in general.
What are the implications of this realignments on the world stage, and how might it end?
Will Nigeria be impacted in some way by this very dangerous and highly combustible international chess game?

Synopsis of The Search
Dan is rich, Dan is basically honest, but Dan is a deliberate womanizer who had given up the idea of ever being faithful to his wife.
One day, Dan sees a girl with the physique of his fantasy and takes her to bed. Shortly after, he gets a parcel with pictures he hated to look at. If Linda ever got to see those pictures, Dan would not want to live again. He tries to act fast to head off the blackmailers, but an incidental delay gives him a bold idea.
Dan became “born again” in church and was surprised that the acclaimed Man of God could not see through his deception. This experience forces Dan to investigate the Christian religion. At the end, he decides to become a Moslem, partly because he felt that Islam provided a more pragmatic approach to managing the magnetism between the sexes. However, the first Moslem he encountered was of the Shia Islamic faith and Dan was perplexed that this man nearly discouraged him from becoming a Moslem – except he could be sure that Dan would not become a Sunni, which is the version of Islam more popular in Nigeria.
Dan’s investigation continued. When Dan fortuitously met Alex Jones, an American journalist, things took a turn and became very exciting. Alex Jones was the personal asset of the CIA Station Chief in Ghana, Doug Brown, who hated Nigeria, hated her former leader, and was determined to find some dirt about Nigeria he could share with his boss at CIA Headquarters in Langley, Virginia.
While all this was going on, Nigeria’s President, Mark Humphrey, was suddenly assassinated. Dan and Alex eventually hook up with Jake Humphrey – the only son of Mark Humphrey — and things began to take a shape that showed a conspiracy so serious it held the answer to the destiny of the world – with Dan of all people at the centre.
