Spanish war crimes in the Rif War in northern Morocco.

This is why Ceuta remains under Spanish occupation. Spain and France plundered Morocco's resources for decades.

The people of the Rif continue to suffer from this catastrophe. Until now, most of the Rif population has cancer and many diseases, akin to Chernobyl but with chemical weapons.

Some critics of Islam frequently claim that it is uniquely violent while Christianity has spread only through peaceful means and missionary work. Historical records, however, document numerous instances of Christian violence, including wars, massacres, and forced conversions by the sword against both non-Christians and other Christians. This article examines the major well-documented cases of such violence throughout history.

Major historical episodes of Christian-led violence against non-Christians and other Christians (often labeled heretics), including forced conversions by the sword, are well-documented.

These mixed religious, political, and economic motives after Christianity gained state power. Early doctrine often rejected coercion, but practice differed. Focus is on key cases; numbers are estimates from chronicles.

Against non-Christians

Saxon Wars (Charlemagne, 772–804)**:

Campaigns forced conversion of pagan Saxons. Massacre of Verden (782) beheaded ~4,500 captives. Laws imposed death for refusing baptism or pagan practices; mass baptisms followed conquest.

Northern (Baltic) Crusades (12th–15th c.)**:

Papally backed campaigns by German/Danish forces and orders (Teutonic Knights) against pagan Slavs, Balts, and Finns. Goal: convert or eliminate. Involved massacres, forced baptisms, and land devastation; largely ended independent pagan societies.

Rhineland massacres (First Crusade, 1096)**:

Crusader bands killed thousands of Jews in Mainz, Worms, and elsewhere; survivors faced convert-or-die choices.

Spanish Reconquista aftermath (late 14th–17th c.)**:

1391 pogroms forced many Jews to convert. 1492 Alhambra Decree: convert or leave. Muslims in Granada faced forced conversion (1499–1502) under Cisneros; later Morisco baptisms, bans, revolts, and expulsions. Inquisition targeted crypto-Jews/Muslims.

Christians against other Christians

Albigensian Crusade (1209–1229)**:

Against Cathars in southern France. Béziers massacre (1209) killed ~15,000–20,000 (Cathars and Catholics); legate reportedly said “Kill them all; God will know his own.” Followed by burnings and sieges that destroyed organized Catharism.

Waldensian persecutions**:

Multiple campaigns, including 1488 crusade and 1655 Piedmont massacre (thousands killed by Catholic forces).

Reformation Wars of Religion (16th–17th c.)**:

St. Bartholomew’s Day Massacre (1572) killed thousands of Huguenots in France. Mutual violence in Netherlands, England (e.g., Mary I’s burnings), and against Anabaptists. Thirty Years’ War (1618–1648) caused 4.5–8 million deaths amid Catholic-Protestant fighting.

Additional cases include the Fourth Crusade’s 1204 sack of Constantinople (Western vs. Eastern Christians).

These appear in contemporary records and modern histories. Forced conversion was never universal Christian policy; many missionaries preferred persuasion, and later societies abandoned legal coercion of belief. Similar patterns occurred in other religions and empires of the era.

Everyone is just trying to survive today. Because how do you plan for the future when tomorrow is also another uncertainty?

Support Gaza now: https://t.co/6l9JFjWInX

This family was forced off the land where they had been sheltering. After already losing their home, they now lives on a flat stretch of exposed dirt because there is nowhere else to go. Even in the middle of summer, this father is already terrified of winter, knowing that when the rains come, the ground beneath the tent will turn to mud and the shelter keeping his family alive could sink beneath them.

There is no rest. No stability. These tents were never meant to become permanent, yet families have spent years moving from one temporary place to another.

The Sameer Project met this family while distributing 30 fresh fruit parcels to Al Amer Camp in Nuseirat. Each parcel contained 1 kilogram each of apples, oranges, apricots, bananas, and plums - fresh fruit is rare for many families in Gaza! The total was $598 including 11% banking commission fees.

Fruit is momentary normalcy but there must be a longer term plan, hope, something to cling on to for tomorrow to make today more bearable. Help support families in Gaza and give to our Food and Water Campaign: https://t.co/6l9JFjWInX

Mo is already attempting to build the future while living in a tent.

He’s a software engineer coding an online education platform so kids in Gaza aged 5 - 17 can still access real learning materials even as everything around them is no more.

Getting him and his family to Italy doesn’t just save one software engineer, but it keeps that platform (and the next generation’s chance at education) alive.

If your circle is different from the usual Palestine accounts, this is the post that needs your quote or RT the most. $5–$20 or a simple share from new eyes can finish the first goal and open the door.

SAUDI ARABIA SPENT 5 MONTHS BUILDING AN ESCAPE ROUTE FROM IRAN. THE HOUTHIS JUST CLOSED IT.

When Iran shut the Strait of Hormuz, Saudi Arabia didn't panic.

It rerouted oil 1,200 kilometers overland through the East-West Pipeline to the Red Sea port of Yanbu, sacrificing natural-gas-liquids revenue to push capacity from 5 million to 7 million barrels a day.

It’s actually a genuine engineering and economic achievement, built in months, designed to make the kingdom's oil exports untouchable by Iran.

This week, the Houthis put a spanner in the works.

THE SQUEEZE

On July 20, Yemen's Houthi movement declared a full naval blockade of Saudi Arabia and struck two Saudi tankers in the Red Sea.

By Friday, they hit the source directly: missiles and drones on Aramco's Jizan refinery, and a simultaneous strike on the Yanbu export terminal, the exact port the kingdom built its Hormuz workaround around.

NASA's satellite fire-detection system confirmed multiple thermal anomalies at Jizan at 1:17am UTC. Brent crude broke back above $100 a barrel within hours.

Here's the part that makes this more than another rocket over the Red Sea: every barrel Yanbu loads still has to exit through the Bab al-Mandeb strait to reach open water. Iran controls the door on one side of the peninsula. The Houthis, backed by Iran, now threaten the only other one.

WHO SAYS WHAT

Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree framed it as retaliation, not initiation, accusing Saudi of "escalation" after Saudi strikes on Hodeidah, and vowing to answer "escalation with escalation."

Yemen's government says the Houthis are using the strait "to serve Iran's regional agenda and strengthen Tehran's negotiating position"

The Houthis have a real grievance, a blockade Riyadh has enforced on Yemen for over a decade, and Iran has a real interest in every additional lever it can pull on Saudi Arabia while its own war with Washington grinds on.

FLIP THE SEATS

Picture the Saudi energy ministry official who spent five months and real money solving the Hormuz problem, converting NGL infrastructure, pushing throughput past design limits, briefing the world that the kingdom had insulated itself from Iranian leverage.

Now picture that same person watching satellite footage of Yanbu-bound crude burning at the refinery gate, in a port they specifically chose because it wasn't supposed to be anyone's chokepoint.

The lesson isn't that the pipeline was badly planned. It's that in a region with this many armed, motivated actors, there is no single fix.

THE BIGGER PATTERN

This isn't the tidy version of multipolarity, a single rising bloc calmly displacing a single declining hegemon.

It's messier than that, and more honest: when no one power can fully guarantee the safety of the world's oil, the number of actors who can threaten it doesn't shrink to two. It grows. Iran doesn't need to personally close both routes. It just needs an ally willing to close the second one for its own reasons, at the moment that reinforces Iran's position most.

The Unipolar Order is discovering it never had as many fronts covered as it thought.

Saudi Arabia will likely find a third route eventually.

The question worth sitting with is how long the kingdom, the world and the price of gas everywhere can survive the search.

[ADAM @adamemedia1]

I can’t get my head around the Israeli Ambassador to the United Kingdom saying it’s “irrelevant” how many children Israel has killed in Gaza.

I don’t understand how anyone can think like this. Demons.

Please don’t scroll past Mo. 🇵🇸✈️🇮🇹🧑‍🎓

Mohammed aka Mo is a 23-year-old Palestinian software engineer from Beit Hanoun, Gaza. He should be finishing his studies and building a future in technology. Instead, the past three years of his life have been consumed by genocide, bombs, displacement, loss and the daily struggle to keep his family alive. They are now living in a tent in Khan Younis.

We have a real opportunity to help get Mo and his family out of Gaza and give him the chance to continue his education in Italy, but we need to move quickly. First, we’re raising $2,000 to cover the family’s immediate living expenses for the next few weeks. We’re currently at just $250.

Once their urgent needs are covered, we can focus on raising the money needed for Mo’s university fees and visa while working to secure the necessary approvals from his university and the Italian government.

I have 32,000 followers. If even a small number of you donate $5, $10 or $20, or simply repost this, we can reach the first goal quickly and move one step closer to getting this young man and his family to safety.

Please help us give Mo a future beyond survival.

[Paul Walsh @Paul__Walsh]

Ursula von der Leyen has confirmed that everyone in the EU will need to use the EU's app for identity authentication before being able to access or post on social media websites.

🇪🇺 As an expert in online child safety, I am here to expose the misinformation and misdirection in von der Leyen's statements.

Today von der Leyen said:

"This is not about whether children can access social media, it is about whether social media can access our children".

💡The first part is true. This isn't about children. It's about surveillance and combating political dissent. A state that can't control its own citizens is more dangerous than a state rife with criminals. The second part is a PR soundbite that politicians are using like a campaign slogan straight out of 1984.

🇪🇺"The question is no longer if children face risks online, but what can we do to give children a safer start online".

💡No. You can't give children a "safer start" online any more than you can offline. In the offline world, the government doesn't enforce curfews or ban children from entering liquor stores, bars or restaurants. That's a parent's responsibility. The digital world should be no different.

🇪🇺"The age verification app is one of the tools to get it done".

💡This is a contradiction because she also said "It won't be foolproof".

🇪🇺"It's easy to use, it is privacy preserving and it is open source".

💡The app was compromised as soon as it was released. "Privacy-preserving" age verification is an oxymoron. You can't verify a person's age without verifying their identity. Where or how that age is shared afterwards is irrelevant.

🇪🇺"This is basically about putting back the power into the hands of parents".

💡More from 1984. The EU is doing the opposite. Parents are having their authority stripped by politicians who think they know better. Many parents are capable and unaffected by peer pressure, and they know how to use parental controls to block any app classified as 13+. Some teens are safe, their parents trust them, and the state has no business overruling that trust.

🇪🇺"We don't give our children keys to the car before they have their licence"

💡Comparing an app to a car is a false equivalence used to justify mass surveillance. Governments don't decide when a young person is ready for car keys, guardians do.

💡Forcing every adult and child into a biometric checkpoint just to use an app or website is not licensing drivers. It's the state seizing everyone's keys, locking the garage, and forcing every driver to ask a private company for permission to take a drive.

💡 This is a gross, unethical overreach that strips authority from parents while imposing state sanctioned identity verification on every adult who doesn't even have a child.

💡Additionally, people who pass a test, obtain a licence and drive a car aren't forced to use an app to constantly authenticate their suitability to drive.

🇪🇺"We do not let them buy alcohol until they are legally allowed"

💡False equivalence. We don't force every person to show ID at a shopping mall entrance just because a few people might buy alcohol with a meal at a restaurant. Some parents are okay with their 12 year-old going to the mall with friends while others aren't. Either way, it's their choice. Whatever irresponsible decisions some parents might make, every adult in the country shouldn't be forced to pay the price.

🇪🇺"It won't be foolproof"

💡This is all the proof we need to show that the EU and every government know that banning social media for teens won't protect them. When pressed by journalists about VPNs being used to circumvent a ban, politicians always state the ban isn't a silver bullet and will take time. The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan went as far as to say "we know it's not the solution".

💡Either age verification works, or it doesn't. As a technical expert in this space, I can tell you there are no additional steps to take and no progress to be made. Either the approach does what it is supposed to do, or it's not fit for purpose. If they claim a bulletproof solution is coming, it can only mean one thing. They intend to ban or restrict VPNs to people who verify their identity.

🇪🇺"It will take time to invite the cultural change that is already taking shape in our society, just as it took time to outlaw drink driving, just as it took time to use seatbelts in the cars. Great change never happens overnight, but when it comes to our safety it is always worth it".

💡Comparing a social media ban and age verification to seatbelts is a completely broken analogy. Seatbelts are a safety feature that protects children while allowing them to travel in a car. A ban doesn't give kids a seatbelt. It kicks them out of the car entirely.

💡Instead of supporting parents who want to guide their own children through the digital world, this heavy-handed law strips away parental authority by banning the apps and websites that many parents are perfectly fine with and actively monitor.

💡Furthermore, enforcing these bans requires biometric age verification, which means forcing millions of adult citizens to scan their IDs, faces or credit cards just to browse the internet. That isn't a common-sense traffic law.

💡It's a digital checkpoint on every street. True safety means teaching kids how to navigate the digital world safely with real guardrails and parental guidance, not burning down digital spaces for everyone under the guise of protection.

🇪🇺☠️ The EU wants to ban teens from social media so every person is forced to verify their identity before they can read, share or post anything online. In their words, this is to protect children from dangerous content.

🇪��☠️ The EU wants to enforce "Chat Control" so every app has to monitor everything people say privately inside it, including apps with end-to-end encryption. In their words, this is to protect children from dangerous criminals.

💡Where this ends

🇪🇺 "If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever".

George Orwell, 1984.
