This is 1000% real news.
Wheelchair user Mohmed Abdulkarim loaded vans with petrol drums, water butts and smart dashcams in RAF Fairford plot 🤣😂
He is one of the accused suspects.
We must do more to confront the dangerous ideologies of takfīr and infidelisation, the practice of branding people as unbelievers simply because we dislike them, disagree with them, or consider them insufficiently religious. Too often, these labels become tools for exclusion, persecution, and even the attempted justification of murder.
Calling people Arne because they are not Muslims, declaring fellow Muslims kāfir because they fail someone’s personal religious test, or casually labelling others munāfiq is deplorable and must be challenged relentlessly.
This is why I have consistently advocated that we call non-Muslims non-Muslims and Christians Christians, rather than weaponising terms such as Keffiri and Kuff as insults. Our language should clarify differences, not manufacture hostility. After all, one person's disbelief in a particular proposition does not mean they believe in nothing; we all hold convictions, even when those convictions differ.
My own experience in Northern Nigeria is instructive. Despite obvious signs of my Muslim identity, I was called Arne. This made me realise that, in some contexts, the term has less to do with religion than with regional or linguistic identity, particularly when directed at non-Northerners or non-Hausa speakers. Its reported invocation in connection with the murder of Shaykh Yahaya Masussuka makes the weaponisation of such labels even more disturbing.
Let us be clear: nobody deserves to be killed for being a non-Muslim. No personal grievance, ethnic prejudice, or religious judgement can turn murder into a legitimate act of faith.
We must challenge not only the violence but also the language and ideologies that make it conceivable. Defend your faith without demeaning others. Disagree without dehumanising. And leave the ultimate judgement of people's hearts to Allah.
Religious conviction should never become a licence for hatred, and no label should become a death sentence.
The Castro regime has profited at the expense of the Cuban people with luxury cars, expensive watches and a private island resort. As I shared this with the world, regime thugs rushed the stage to interrupt my speech.
They can intimidate their own people in Cuba but think again about trying that nonsense in the United States of America.
A new parliamentarian has been elected in Israel.
His name is Moshe Feiglin.
His views?
"Every child, every baby in Gaza is an enemy. We need to conquer Gaza and colonise it. And not leave a single child there. There is no other victory."
Read that again.
Worse than a Nazi.
“Do you understand who you are dealing with? This is America. Back up.”
A United Nations meeting was dramatically suspended yesterday after US ambassador Mike Waltz and Cuban foreign minister Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla both ignored the chair’s plea for order in the chamber.
The problem started when Waltz blamed Cubans for the shocking US embargoes and blockades that are causing huge suffering to the people of the island.
Cuban representatives, astonished at the way Waltz blamed the victims for the crisis, in their eyes, stood up and objected, citing Rule 71, which allows listeners to raise a point of order.
Ambassador Waltz responded that the Cubans didn’t like the substance of his speech, so were not raising a point of order.
But when complaints continued, this caused Ambassador Waltz to lose his temper and shout “Back up! Back away. Do you understand what you’re dealing with? This is America.”

INTERNATIONAL TERRITORY
The rest of the United Nations was outraged by this attitude, as the UN building is legally international territory.
When Waltz refused to stop his tirade, Khalilur Rahman, chair of the 81st session, ordered that the meeting be instantly suspended. Waltz ignored him.
The meeting was then resumed, but footage of the argument created a huge storm on social media.
Some people in the US defended Waltz’s narrative, blaming Cubans for the suffering caused by the US embargos.
But much of the commentary from the rest of the world said that the United Nations, for the safety of the delegates and the organization itself, should no longer be situated in New York.
When New York was originally chosen as the site, the US pledged not to politicize US visa access to meetings—but has regularly broken the pledge, such as refusing to allow visas for Palestinians.

Hoy he mantenido una reunión con el embajador de China en España para abordar la situación generada por las declaraciones de Kylian Mbappé y buscar soluciones que permitan superar este episodio.
Durante los últimos años, desde LALIGA hemos trabajado mano a mano con las autoridades chinas, las instituciones del fútbol, los operadores audiovisuales y las empresas del país para impulsar el crecimiento y la popularidad del fútbol español en China, pero también para contribuir al desarrollo y crecimiento del propio fútbol chino, compartiendo nuestra experiencia, conocimientos y recursos.
Queremos que nuestros acuerdos de colaboración, especialmente el convenio estratégico con la Chinese Professional Football League (CFL), vigente hasta 2029, y los acuerdos con China Media Group (CMG), entre otros proyectos conjuntos, sigan siendo un éxito y contribuyan tanto a hacer cada vez más grande el fútbol chino como a acercar nuestras competiciones a millones de aficionados.
Una relación construida sobre el respeto mutuo, la confianza y la cooperación que debemos preservar y seguir fortaleciendo.
Nuestro compromiso es seguir trabajando juntos para que un episodio individual no perjudique los importantes avances conseguidos ni afecte a los millones de aficionados chinos que siguen nuestras competiciones.
China es y seguirá siendo un socio estratégico para LALIGA.🇨🇳🇪🇸
The lying is so blatant, it’s almost pathological. Nobody even bothers to hide it anymore. Even their rabbis lie. The whole cult is running on bullshit.
The Bilbao protests were against Spanish far-right agitator Vito Quiles and his planned appearance. Student unions, antifascists and left-wing groups came out to oppose his politics. Quiles pulled out 30 mins before the event, then a radical subset went on to start fires and clash with police.
PALESTINE HAD FUCK ALL TO DO WITH ANY OF THIS.
This was a Spanish political event, not a Palestine protest. Stop making shit up to push ur genocidal agenda.
Brazil President Lula da Silva:
“I want to say loud and clear: The Prime Minister of Israel is carrying out a GENOCIDE against women & children. This is a historical FACT.”

Settler Terrorism Reaches the Polling Stations: Israeli terrorist Settlers Attack Arab Voters to Prevent Them from Casting Their Ballots during Israeli elections.
Settler Terrorism Reaches the Polling Stations: Israeli terrorist Settlers Attack Arab Voters to Prevent Them from Casting Their Ballots during Israeli elections.
"This is what we are willing to die for as Palestinians", Hazem Jbara told us, showing us half a bag of olives—all he managed to harvest in 10 minutes before settlers attacked him.
I watched from the rooftop as they came from two sides, trying to trap Hazem and @infinite_jaz and @the_andrey_x , who accompanied him. They barely escaped.
Marj Sia is one of the most dangerous roads in the West Bank. For Palestinians, harvesting olives on the land beside it takes immense resilience—and means risking their lives.
The Arab world made foundational contributions to global civilization, science, mathematics, and the arts—particularly between the 7th and 13th centuries—as detailed by the Arab American National Museum and the Arab American Anti-Discrimination Committee.
Mathematics and Science
Algebra and Algorithms: Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi founded algebra (derived from al-jabr) and introduced systematic methods that shaped modern mathematics and computer science.
Numerals and Zero: Scholars popularized and spread the Hindu-Arabic numeral system, the decimal system, and the concept of zero (sifr) to the Western world.
Optics: Ibn al-Haytham (Alhazen) pioneered the modern scientific method and wrote the Book of Optics, explaining image formation and the mechanics of the camera obscura.
Chemistry: Early chemists like Jabir ibn Hayyan and Muhammad ibn Zakariya al-Razi classified chemical substances and refined laboratory processes like distillation using the alembic.
Medicine and Health
Medical Encyclopedias: Ibn Sina (Avicenna) wrote The Canon of Medicine, an authoritative medical reference used across Europe and the Islamic world for centuries.
Contagion and Diagnosis: Al-Razi (Rhazes) provided the first accurate clinical differentiation and diagnosis of smallpox and measles, while also advancing contagion theories.
Circulation: Ibn al-Nafis first described pulmonary circulation (how blood flows through the lungs).
Surgery: Al-Zahrawi produced comprehensive surgical encyclopedias, inventing numerous surgical instruments and techniques like vascular ligation.
Astronomy and Navigation
Astronomy: Astronomers improved the astrolabe with angular scales and azimuth circles, compiled exact star charts, and calculated latitude and longitude.
Earth's Measurements: Scholars such as Al-Biruni theorized the rotation of the Earth and accurately calculated its radius.
Geography and Atlases: Al-Idrisi compiled detailed world maps and geographical atlases for King Roger II of Sicily, while Ibn Battuta documented extensive travel across Asia and Africa.
Architecture, Arts, and Music
Architecture: Builders developed horseshoe and pointed arches, ornate geometric designs, intricate arabesques, and towering minarets.
Music: The development of the oud (a short-neck lute) heavily influenced the evolution of stringed instruments like the European lute and guitar.
Knowledge Preservation: Institutions like Baghdad's House of Wisdom translated, expanded, and preserved classical Greek, Roman, Persian, and Indian scientific texts.
(Note: On public forums like Quora, opinions are mixed regarding the distinction between ethnic Arab scholars and non-Arab polymaths from the broader Islamic empire who wrote in Arabic.)
