In this overview of Muhammad’s life and legacy, prominent scholar Craig Considine provides a sociological analysis of Muhammad’s teachings and example. Considine shows how the Prophet embraced religious pluralism, envisioned a civic nation, stood for anti-racism, advocated for seeking knowledge, initiated women’s rights, and followed the Golden Rule. Considine sheds light on the side of Prophet Muhammad that is often forgotten in mainstream depictions and media narratives. The Humanity of Muhammad is Considine’s contribution to the growing body of literature on one of history’s most important human beings.

Opinion: I'm an American doctor who went to Gaza. I saw annihilation, not war - Los Angeles Times
A powerful, depressing, infuriating, #mustread op-ed from my friend Dr Irfan Galaria, who just returned from Gaza: https://t.co/auoa9tyPmn
Everyone should read this immensely revealing account of an American reconstructive surgeon who just spent 10 days Gaza:
"I have worked in other war zones. But what I witnessed during [my] 10 days in Gaza was not war — it was annihilation."

It's becoming clear to me how generalised Western Islamophobia has prevented "us" (media, politicians, public...) from truly understanding the violent, extreme Zionism that rules Israel. For instance:
1⃣ we recognise indoctrination of children by ISIS, but not by Zionist orgs.

The refusal to accept the two-state solution for Israelis and Palestinians, and the denial of the right to statehood for the Palestinian people, are unacceptable.
The right of the Palestinian people to build their own state must be recognized by all.

Due to the overuse of the word, perhaps, or the fear of being wrongly labelled an antisemite, some people seem reluctant to label Israel as a fascist state.
So, let's take a look at what fascism is, the key defining characterises of fascism, and how Israel stacks up.

🇵🇸🇺🇸 A Palestinian’s message to America.
“They give us a piece of bread and a sandwich, and they give the Israelis tanks, rockets and warfighters.”
“He saw his father dying, he saw his uncle martyred, he saw his house stolen, he’s living in a tent — how can we remove hatred from the hearts of these children?”

No. Sorry. They are not “collateral damage” they are human beings who happen to have been born there and live there and most of those human beings are stuck there. Have some compassion, they are Palestinians not buildings or roads or things, they are human beings and so are the hostages whose lives you may also be destroying. They aren’t “collateral damage” either.

I did not see this coming but I am glad to see it.

Alright, since you decided to ask me, I'll tell you why the same guy you praise for "wonderful analysis" also concludes, based on the facts & evidence, that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza:
