A British-flagged oil tanker has been seized in the Gulf by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard

:smiley: Wee acha zako sani… sasa unataka ku rewrite history tena?! Surely…

Hata kama ni ku defend hawa waKale bana, siku hizi una cross the line… Moi and his goons were straight up thugs. Waliharibu economy.

All countries experienced the oil crisis but many rebounded afterwards and remained or became thriving economies.

Kenya ni corruption na poor leadership ndio shida. Wacha mambo ya oil crisis.

Kroll report in 2004 ilisema vizuri that Moi and a few close associates had amassed an insane $3 billion in shell companies abroad.

How did he amass such wealth? Former school teacher… civil servant salary as rais and M.P. !!!

Ni kama Xi Jinping tu. Ati amekuwa akilipwa kshs. 90,000 hizo miaka zote juzi ndio aliongezwa akafikishiwa Kshs. 190,000 since the Chinese economy is “doing well”…:D:D

But reality ni ati mjamaa ako na networth ya over $2 billion U.S dollars. Hmmmmmm???

And for both Moi and Xi those are very conservative estimates. If you were to add Moi’s total assets and shareholding, he is probably north of $15 billion. Former primary school teacher…

Ama dictator mwingine mnaye mpenda sana Putin!! KGB salary was probably nothing at all akishatoa expenses.

So he became President as more or less a pauper. 2 decades later the fellow is worth a mind boggling $200 billion…

With almost a hundred palaces, several yachts, planes, finest wardrobes, his personal army of bodyguards… insane bank accounts abroad… insane properties abroad… etc etc.

We should stop all exports and use the little oil we have as a strategic reserve

Damu inwagike buda? You do know it’s the innocent hoi polloi who suffer the most.

Iranian leadership family zao zitakuwa zimefichwa abroad vizuri sana. Trump anajua hivyo, ndio maana anaenda pole pole unlike others before him.

First and foremost, Iran brought this on itself in 1980 when it declared Israel a mortal enemy and the US the Great Satan.
Most Jews know Iran uses its hatred for Israel to distract both locals and international media of the atrocities it is imposing on Iranians who were secular for centuries after the end of the Savafids. Even Mosandegh the guy the Cia assassinated hated religious politics. That is why the Mullahs never mention him. Only Leftists claim the US was responsible for the rise of the Islamic Republic due to that assassination conveniently forgetting that the Islamists hated everything to do with the Shah(who BTW was still head of state but not head of Government at that time) and the Nationalists under Mosandegh.
Israel was an ally to Iran. In fact Iran was one of the first nations to recognize Israel, long before the US did.
Iran pretends to care for Palestinians.
The Palestinians hate them, for being Shia and for being Non-Arab. During the intifada, Palestinians rejected blood from ‘filthy Shias’ much to Israel’s delight.
Israel does not have an issue with Iran. But with the Islamic Republic which tries to use Israel as an excuse for everything.
In the current drama.
Both the UK and Iran are wrong.
Iran should have never sailed into the waters of Gibraltar and should have stuck to Morro an waters. While the excuse that the UK gave is flimsy, they do have every right to seize any ship that sails into UK waters. A right every nation has.
In turn, UK vessels should stick to the UAE-Oman-UAE(Fuijarah) waters at the Strait of Hormuz and avoid entering Iranian waters.
They were idiotic enough to actually sail to within a few kilometers of an island known to host the IRGC.
Iran also has every right to seize ships that sail into its waters. The UK forgot what is good for the goose…
