Crime is now being viewed through an entirely racialised lens – but only when the perpetrators aren't white.
When Chas Corrigan stabbed a Saudi student to death, or Paul Doyle mowed down Liverpool fans, white people didn't have to fear being a target of collective retaliation.
🚨 BOMBSHELL! The Independent's Chief Football Writer Miguel Delaney completely exposes FIFA's massive double standard.
He confirms Indonesia was instantly stripped of hosting rights for trying to ban Israel, yet FIFA is completely silent as the US bans Muslim nations.
The United Arab Emirates is trying to reduce its dependence on Western arms, which is understandable because Western governments should have qualms about arming the UAE as it is arming the genocidal Rapid Support Forces in Sudan. https://t.co/Dk5rC7LFjH

اللهم ارحم من عز علينا فراقهم فلم يبقى شيء يربطنا بهم غير الدعاء
اللهم ارحمهم برحمتك التي وسعت كل شيء

يا اجمعنا بهم في جنة لا فراق بعدها
الله يرحمك يا حامد

This is not a conflict between two equal parties. There is a legitimate national army, fully entitled to obtain weapons lawfully from any source willing and able to provide them. On the hand, there is a non-state armed group — indeed, a genocidal militia according to the designation of the United States Government itself.
On what basis, then, can any moral or political equivalence be drawn between the two?
