Hernán Cortés es por mucho el hombre más GRANDE que ha tenido la historia (después de Jesucristo). A los homosexuales les gusta Alejandro Magno, a los franceses Napoleón Bonaparte, pero a los historiadores les vuelve loco el GRAN conquistador Español. Y es que Hernán Cortés llegó más allá que cualquier otro conquistador. Los ojos de Alejandro Magno y Napoleón Bonaparte vieron lo que cientos de millones de personas ya conocían de memoria; su hazaña fue la de destruir y masacrar no la de descubrir y construir. Hernán Cortés puso el pie donde ningún otro cristiano había llegado, enfrentando peligros DESCONOCIDOS. Era literalmente UN NUEVO MUNDO. Se dice fácil, pero se necesita de mucho valor, coraje, inteligencia y seguridad para hacer lo que hizo. Sobretodo en un mundo donde la muerte era el culto oficial, donde las deidades que se labraban en piedra eran de monstruos, y dónde la dieta local era de carne humana. Gracias a Hernán Cortés no solo tenemos a México, sino que tenemos a toda hispanoamerica. No podemos mostrar ingratitud con el PADRE del continente AMERICANO.
Slovakia did it. Slovenia did it. Singapore did it with a city and no resources.
Alberta has a multi-trillion dollar resource base and more GDP than 150 countries.
The idea that Alberta independence isn’t possible isn’t supported by historical reality.

HOW ONE PRIEST SINGLEHANDEDLY RESCUED THE WORLD'S LARGEST COLLECTION OF ARAMAIC MANUSCRIPTS FROM THE ISLAMIC STATE.
In 2007, threatening letters arrived at the Dominican monastery in Mosul.
Each envelope contained a broken cross & a bullet.
Father Najeeb Michaeel's name was on a hit list.
Instead of leaving, his work began. Every morning before dawn, he dressed in civilian clothes and drove his old car to Mosul, moving the monastery's manuscripts 30km away.
Alone, box by box, a multi-month operation.
The collection dated back to the 9th century.
When ISIS ways days away from taking Mosul in August 2014, he did it again. By an act of God, within weeks of ISIS' descent on Mosul, he moved the ancient documents.
Two cars full of manuscripts & 16th-century books. Aramaic manuscripts from the 9th century: Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Yezidi. A millennium of civilization in the Nineveh Plain.
They drove east through the night. At a checkpoint, a young girl pointed at the horizon. When they cleared the last checkpoint, Najeeb said:
"I think the Virgin Mary had a hand to protect us."
When he returned to Mosul after liberation, the monastery had been used as a weapons warehouse.
The library was destroyed. The clock tower, donated by the Empress of France in 1876, the first clock in Iraq, was stripped and stolen.
A gallows stood where the altar once was.
In 2019, the Church made him Archbishop of Mosul. He now oversees 8,000+ digitized manuscripts from 105 collections across Iraq, Turkey, and Iran. He saved our history.
Remember his name & pray for his continued work.
«Nosotros, como todos los hispanoamericanos bien nacidos, tenemos que amar forzosamente a España. Existe, quiéranlo o no los enemigos de la Hispanidad, una comunidad de pensamiento, de costumbres, de lengua, de religión, esto es, de las cosas más íntimas...
Aramaic will be extinct within 50-100 years.
Once Aramaic is gone, we will lose a rich library of biblical interpretation & ancient Christian history.
Assyrians are the last people who speak it fluently.
SAVE ARAMAIC!

In 1480 viel een Ottomaans leger (18.000 man, onder Gedik Ahmed Pasha) de Zuid-Italiaanse stad Otranto aan. Na 15 dagen beleg werd de stad ingenomen. De overlevende mannen (boven de 15) kregen een ultimatum: bekeren tot de islam of sterven. Ongeveer 800 weigerden. Ze werden naar de heuvel buiten de stad gevoerd (nu de Heuvel der Martelaren). Daar werden ze één voor één onthoofd.
De eerste was kleermaker Antonio Primaldo, die riep: “Nu is het tijd om voor onze zielen te vechten voor de Heer.”
De aartsbisschop werd voor het altaar van de kathedraal onthoofd.
Andere priesters werden doormidden gezaagd.
Vrouwen en kinderen werden als slaven verkocht of vermoord. Totaal: tienduizenden doden en duizenden in slavernij.
Dit was geen “normale” oorlog maar een religieus gemotiveerde slachting van weerloze christenen die weigerden hun geloof af te zweren.
Na de herovering in 1481 werden de lichamen (die maandenlang onbegraven op de heuvel hadden gelegen) verzameld en naar de kathedraal gebracht. In de Cappella dei Martiri staan vandaag de dag glazen vitrines vol met hun echte schedels – rij na rij, honderden stuks.
Een stukje geschiedenis dat zelden in de schoolboeken staat…
Anno 2026?
Kerken organiseren vrijwillig iftars wereldwijd..
Hebben die 800 martelaren hiervoor geleden?
Voor kerken die nu vrijwillig weggeven wat zij met hun bloed verdedigden?

CARLSON: “Netanyahu’s family is from Poland. He doesn’t practice Judaism, there’s no evidence his ancestors EVER lived here [Israel], they never spoke the language. On what basis does he have a right to be here?”
HUCKABEE: “I’m totally unable to process what you’re saying.”

With Marco Rubio speaking in both English and Spanish and leading the charge to destroy communism in Latin America, Republicans would lock in the Hispanic vote and have the clearest path to victory in the 2028 presidential election. They could also secure eight more years of Republican leadership.
All they need to do is unite behind the strongest candidate of all: Marco Rubio.
Portugal e Espanha criaram a civilização, espalhamos cultura e religião pelo mundo inteiro.
