@shadihamid If it had no access to aid, weapons, technology, capital, "charity" to settlers, any diplomatic and legal support, how would that unleash or restrain their behavior?

If all this is unrealistic, how is it realistic to get Israel to change its behavior?

@IsmailRoyer Abolitionist arguments should be used judiciously. However they do work. Republicans have a long history of electoral success calling to abolish things, like the NEA or DOE. When you run, make the case. Too “timid” you may lose. Too “extreme” - maybe. Depends on the wind.

@AsadFromNYC The specific OC case has a “this American life” episode- but an oral history would be great. This informer also turned on the FBI and described in detail how they mapped the Muslim community

@khateeb88 @Shack_Rat I read it fine. That’s what I was talking about. Take a beat. Do the rebuttal. This was a pointless statement that did not advance the discussion and I hope the rebuttal does. That was all I am saying. The joint fatwa needs to be challenged.

[Ahmed Shaikh @bornshaikh]

@khateeb88 @Shack_Rat I feel like it would have made more sense for them to keep their powder dry and come up with a point by point scholarly rebuttal, then unload. This thing about the printing press and high school.

This was too much of a comments section rant for an institution of learning.

@imran_tmm “Guilt by association is being presented as evidence.” A strange thing coming from Dubai. Now if instead there were connections with Muslim Brotherhood ideology…

[Abdullah Nana @MuftiAbdullah]

An older article that’s still very relevant to our current American Zakat controversy. It’s worth a read (reread)!

@Jahan__ @Peace_Bruv Obviously it is. Just funds are restricted under the law. We do have a fatwa about fighting in the US military against terrorists. Military branches recruit at Islamic conferences. That is our world.

[Ahmed Shaikh @bornshaikh]

@Jahan__ @Peace_Bruv Not sure it can be. At least not by us, now.

[Ahmed Shaikh @bornshaikh]

We could ask campains to do a seperate zakat accounting.

[Ahmed Shaikh @bornshaikh]

Zakat Does not belong here

Just look up what Jesse Unruh, the California speaker of the house, said about how to treat donors and their money.

Then consider donating your zakat to politicians.

Do scholars consider how campaign funds are spent? You gonna make sure it’s not spent on booze right?

@jeff_kaye I get it. But I also feel like businesses doing business in China must have seen this coming. Big companies like Apple have diversified where they get stuff made (clearly not enough)and even Chinese companies have been setting up operations in Mexico for years.

@EINS_Institute @CausticEngineer @arblauvelt @LaunchGood What is your independent source?

[Ahmed Shaikh @bornshaikh]

@Krendryn @MazMHussain @EmgageAction They did. They are not funded from the Muslim community.

[Hamzah wald Maqbul @hwmaqbul]

Emgage are total plants in our community.

Shame on them, those who work with them and those will give them platform.

Even if they have a beard and turbin.
