Living in a truly dystopian society where Canadian politicians express greater indignation over a flag waved near a hospital than the ongoing atrocities of killings, displacements, and genocide against an entire society.
You made us all proud team Egypt 🇪🇬.
Got clearly cheated out of a goal, and overrun by FIFA corruption.
But hold your heads high like Coach Hossam held the flag of Palestine 🇵🇸.
They can’t VAR this.
There’s something strange about this World Cup, but somehow everyone is pretending it looks normal.
France are fighting for their lives in the Round of 16.
Brazil already had a tough first knockout game.
England have a serious opponent in the Round of 16.
Portugal had a difficult group and now have Spain waiting.
Every big team has had to suffer somewhere.
Except one.
One team has somehow been given a clean road straight to the quarter-finals, and we’re meant to believe it’s just coincidence.
No one deserves to be shot brutally in public, sliced open by the bullet of a cowardly sniper.
Hence, I condemn in the strongest terms the targeted assassination of at least 1500 Palestinians by snipers - many of whom were women and children collecting food - by the IDF cowards in Gaza.
And I condemn in the strongest terms the shooting of over 1000 Palestinians living in the West Bank in 'clashes' instigated by Isareli forces.
And I also condemn in the strongest terms the bombing and intentional killing of over 70,000 civilians in Gaza by the genocidal regime of Netanyahu.
Anyone who justified or mocked those deaths deserves no sympathy and is no hero - even as the same verdict above holds true for them as well.
Dying by violence does not cleanse a legacy of justifying violence.
Unity in the Muslim world must become the priority for all muslims.
To my Sunni brothers, these sentiments coming from Shia leaders are true. It is not for someone insignificant like me to even highlight it but the words spoken today by Sayed Khaminei during Tehrans friday prayers are true and sincere words.
As our dear departed Sayed said, we the Shia of Ali ibn Abi Taleb (a) will never abandon Palestine.
This is not about regional proxies/domination or anything of the sort. We did not give our most beloved leader as some sort of psyop. This is as real as it gets. This is a historic moment for a true brotherhood between us all. I extend my hand to every Sunni brother of mine, I pray we can respect our differences and unite upon the common denominators - our children are being killed by the same enemy. We stand together shoulder to shoulder, one Ummah of RasoolAllah (s).
The time has come!
It is with mixed feelings that I receive the Young Leaders Award from @CMA_Docs. I am appreciative of this recognition. I am grateful to my nominators, which include mentors and learners. To be nominated in the first place by these wonderful people has meant the world to me. /1
@analisabalares@rmjad@YaRabbiiiiiiii@eagle_left@GretaThunberg 5. Legal and Political Discrimination: Discriminatory laws and policies within Israel, such as the Nation-State Law, perpetuate inequality and contribute to an environment conducive to genocide.

So... everyone thought OpenAI was in trouble with others catching up.
But now, GPT-4o is out, it's free, and it's one of the most magical things I've ever seen.
15 game-changing examples that'll blow your mind:
The mainstream media’s coverage of the campus protests against the Gaza genocide is actually worse, more biased, more dishonest, than its coverage of the Gaza genocide itself, which I actually didn’t think possible.
