🚨🎙️Thierry Henry on what Arsenal must do in their next two games.
🗣️ Now it becomes serious for Arsenal, they have two games that define everything; Atlético Madrid in the UEFA Champions League and then West Ham United away in the league.
Atlético Madrid will try to break you. They will test your heart, your discipline, your courage. You have to suffer together, fight for every ball like it’s the last one, because that’s what it takes at this level in the UEFA Champions League.
And then you go to West Ham United away, listen, nobody will give you anything there. The crowd, the tackles, the atmosphere — you have to want it more.
If you are serious about being champions, if you really believe… then now is the time to show it. Win ugly if you have to, suffer when you don’t have the ball, and be ruthless when the moment comes.
Because this is where you either become champions, or you watch someone else take it.”

A truly remarkable accomplishment. Congratulations, Doctor!
This is the night of the 27th of Ramadan, which has the highest probability of being the Night of Decree and Majesty (Laylatul Qadr). I will pray for you, and I beg you all to pray for me.
May Allah, the Ever-Living, the Self-Sustainer, answer all our prayers, forgive our departed parents and loved ones, bless our families, heal our communities, rescue the oppressed, subdue the oppressor, bring absolute peace, stability, and prosperity to our communities and nations, forgive our shortcomings, accept our good deeds, and make Jannatul Firdaus our final destination.

I have learned that the lawless Department of State Services (DSS) has arbitrarily and unlawfully detained a social media influencer known as Sarki @Waspapping_.
He was reportedly arrested over comments he made about the Israel–Iran war, particularly criticisms directed at the State of Israel over its egregious warmongering and crimes against humanity in Gaza and elsewhere.
No Nigerian citizen should be arrested or detained simply for expressing opinions about the actions of foreign governments or commenting on ongoing international conflicts. Freedom of expression must apply equally to discussions about global affairs and acts of war involving foreign interests.
The DSS must therefore immediately release Sarki @Waspapping_ and end this unlawful detention.
Nigeria cannot claim to be a democracy while citizens are arrested for expressing views on international events.
#FreeWasPappingNOW.
How hamas started
Mujama
there is well-documented evidence that the Israeli military government provided financial assistance and official recognition to Mujama al-Islamiya, the precursor to Hamas, during the late 1970s and early 1980s. This support was part of a strategic effort to weaken the secular, nationalist Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) by fostering a religious alternative.

Evidence of Funding and Support
•Admissions by Israeli Officials:
◦Brigadier General Yitzhak Segev: The former Israeli military governor of Gaza admitted to providing a budget to the organization. In a 1981 interview with The New York Times, he stated, "The Israeli Government gave me a budget and the military government gives to the mosques".
◦Avner Cohen: A former Israeli religious affairs official in Gaza later expressed regret, stating, "Hamas, to my great regret, is Israel's creation". He claimed he had warned his superiors against backing the Islamists as early as the mid-1980s.
•Official Recognition and Infrastructure:
◦In 1978, the Israeli authorities officially registered Mujama al-Islamiya as a non-profit, religious charity.
◦This legal status allowed the group to build mosques, schools, and social clubs, and to establish the Islamic University of Gaza.
•Strategic Tolerance:
◦During the early 1980s, Israel frequently stood aside while Mujama members engaged in violent clashes with secular PLO supporters.
◦In 1984, after finding a weapons cache in a mosque, Israel jailed Mujama leader Sheikh Ahmed Yassin but released him a year later in a prisoner exchange, allowing him to continue expanding his network.

Modern Context: Indirect Funding
While direct Israeli funding of Hamas ceased once the group turned to armed resistance in the late 1980s, more recent policies have also been criticized as indirect support:
•Qatari Cash Transfers: From 2018 until 2023, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government permitted millions of dollars in Qatari cash to enter Gaza monthly.
•Strategic Objective: Netanyahu himself reportedly told his party members in 2019 that "anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas" as a way to keep the Palestinian leadership divided.
The operation that made the United States give money and weapons to Islamic groups (the mujahideen) to fight the Soviet Union in Afghanistan during the Cold War was called Operation Cyclone.

Here are the key details regarding this operation:
•Definition: Operation Cyclone was the code name for the CIA program to arm, train, and finance the Afghan mujahideen from 1979 to 1992.
•Purpose: The primary goal was to bleed the Soviet Union following its invasion of Afghanistan in 1979, providing payback for U.S. defeats in Vietnam and elsewhere.
•The Conduit: The U.S. worked through Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) to funnel money and weapons, including Stinger missiles, to the fighters.
•Funding Scale: It was one of the longest and most expensive covert CIA operations ever, with funding rising from roughly $60 million in 1981 to over $600 million per year by 1987.
•Partners: Saudi Arabia matched U.S. funding dollar-for-dollar, and Britain's MI6 also provided support.
•Result: The operation helped force a Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan in 1989 but also led to significant "blowback," as the weapons and radicalized fighters contributed to future instability in the region and the rise of extremist groups. 
•Lumen Learning +5
It is important to note that the mujahideen supported by the US were a broad coalition of anti-Soviet guerrillas, not a single organization, and the program ended after the Soviet withdrawal.

Ideas for the last ten days of #Ramadan:
1. Give 1 dinar in charity every day, so if it falls on laylatul qadr it's as if u gave charity everyday for 84 years.
2. Pray two ra'kaat everyday, so if it falls on laylatul qadr it's as if u prayed everyday for 84 years.
3. Read Surah ikhlaas three times a day, so if it falls on laylatul qadr it's as if u read the whole #Quran everyday for 84 years.
Share this as you may find it on your account [of good deeds].
Allah make us of the victorious.
I am not against Israel and I am not pro Iran.
Infact I condemn the holocaust against the Jewish state by Hitler
All I want is facts and balance
If Israel say Iran is a state sponsor of terrorist ground that’s true. Also Israel is a state sponsor of terrorist groups
They sponsored my jams that became hamas to weaken PLO,they also sponsor the popular force to weaken hamas
I am just for fairness
If Israel say Iran should not have their nuclear weapon but why is Israel having nuclear weapon and they aren’t ready to follow the rules
What is sauce for the goose , is sauce for the gander
I know a lot of bigots will never understand nuances!
They lied against Saddam Husein that he was building nukes. They lied against Nicolas Maduro that he was selling drugs. They lied against Gaddafi that he was a dictator. They lie to manufacture consent to take over countries and steal mineral resources.
Hypocrisy of the West and Christian Nationalists
Israel can own nuclear weapons, but Iran can’t.
For a saner world, no country must own nuclear weapons.
This unfairness will never give us a better world.
America only wants a regime that favours it in Iran.
That’s why they conducted Operation Ajax!
America can’t challenge Russia’s deployment of nuclear weapons in Belarus.
America hasn’t gone after North Korea!
Yet Iran should never have a nuclear weapon, but the same America had no problem with the Atom for Peace programme under the Shah.
"They will create the virus themselves and sell you the antidotes. Thereafter, they will pretend to take time to find the solution when they already have it."
