@william_oney@haivri Visiting would show you much to like. Like any country, it has its faults, but many wonderful places, people and things.
Appreciate yr recognizing disinfo and finding out for yourself.
@haivri 1. The warmth of the people- all the random strangers who jumped in to help when I couldn’t find my Airbnb on arrival & the host is still my friend from 3 yrs ago. 2. Our beautiful history everywhere you walk- dust of our ancestors. 3. The variety- multi-cultures, landscapes, etc
Cursing Christians and Jews is a standard part of Islamic prayers, recited millions if not billions of times every day by Muslims around the world. It's based on the opening chapter of the Koran, which reads:
“Guide us to the straight path — the path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have incurred Your wrath [Jews] or of those who are astray [Christians].”
In this video, not only does the Egyptian soccer team recite this repudiation of Christians and Jews, but — and because its playing mostly Christian teams — it repeatedly recites — thrice — other segments of the Koran that distinctly condemn Christians:
“Say, 'He is Allah, who is One... He neither begets nor is born, nor does he have an equivalent'... Infidels are they who say, 'God is one in a Trinity.' There is only One God. If they do not stop saying this, they will be afflicted with a painful punishment” [Koran 112:1-4 and 5:73].
And people wonder if it's true that Egypt's national soccer team openly rejects Coptic Christian players.
Of course, whenever a Christian player is exceedingly good, they try to entice him to convert to Islam to join the team.
Such is the sick mentality that is being welcomed into the global "fraternity of sports."
The options: The prosecution can appeal the sentence. He has already made a statement on it.
2. A grassroots movement can be started to remove Judge Derek Malan from the bench. Such movements have succeed in the past, notably with Judge Aaron Persky in the Brock Turner case.
3. We can file a complaint for judicial misconduct.
There is no reason why American Jews, including Paul Kessler's widow, should accept this miscarriage of justice.
For this type of case, we should also contact the Lawfare Project.
If you are interested in acting against this gross miscarriage of justice, please let me know. We need all the help we can get.
The Ventura County Superior Court’s decision to let #LoayAlnaji serve just one year for killing #PaulKessler is a disgrace!
This is NOT justice, it is a betrayal of public safety.
@cityofventura, your silence is complicity.
Our community deserves real accountability!
Loay Alnaji bashed a 69-year-old Jewish man in the head, killing him.
Today he was sentenced for that crime. He will spend a single year in prison.
Paul Kessler was exercising his right as an American to go to a Pro-Israel demonstration. It is the same right Loay was using as he protested for Free Palestine.
But Loay decided Paul was using his rights incorrectly and took everything from him. The court decided that the loss of years with family and friends would be repaid with a single year of Loay being in prison.
Do you think if the roles were reversed, it'd be the same? Because I don't.
@AvivaKlompas Curious if they also complained about learning about the Trail of Tears for NA.
They were left out that history, too. And if they didn’t try to insert themselves there, why not.
@Avilptl@Yakovolf AsaJew yakovolf says he’s pro-misinformation on his profile. Not even hiding being a troll.
Please don’t put this on diaspora Jewry. He’s trying to spread dissension
@xProudZionist@Yakovolf The only question is whether “he” is a spoof account like Rabbi Linda or a Jew hater troll.
I’m too bored to figure it out today.
@JewishMage I see it as a form of religious colonizing. I’ve had arguments with people who claim all of the past & any place Islam ever was as Muslim. It’s “first” because it retroactively went back & claims the Jewish & Christian leaders. Like when the Mormon church baptized dead Jews
