Weeks before Saif al-Islam Gadhafi’s assassination, a secret meeting in the Libyan desert revealed a fugitive heir still trying to shape the country’s future.

jتوفي اليوم أمير قطر السابق فأقول:كان يمكن أن نترحم عليك،وأن نودعك بما يوجبه علينا حق الأخوة في الدين والعروبة، لكنك استبدلت الأولى بإعلان كفرنا على الملأ، وأحللت محل الثانية "صليبًا" ناصع البياض في حلكة ليلنا الطويل، بعد أن آثرت التحالف مع من رأيتهم أولى بمودتك منا.

[Mustafa Fetouri @MFetouri]

في وداع أمير قطر أقول:لم تورثنا إلا كرهك؛ والكره، كالمحبة، شعورٌ يسكن القلوب. لكنك لم تُبقِ للمحبة في نفوسنا ملجأً، حتى آوت إلى زوايا الغيظ والأسى، وحلّ محلها ما زرعته فينا من مرارة. إن كنت أنت واحدًا ورحلت، فمن رحلوا منا بالآلاف، فماذا تساوي أنت أمامهم؟

I hope this might make some, at least some, deliberately blinded Americans see where their money goes? They are funding criminals in the West Bank & beyond.

حاولت قصارى جهدي وأقصى قدرتي في التدقيق والتحري واستعنت بكل ما امكن من مراجع ومحللين وخبراء ولم أستطع فهم اجابة هذا السؤال: لماذا يقبل رئيس لبنان وحكومته هذا الإذلال الصهيوني في اتفاق الاطار بينهما وبماذا سيواجه لبنان الصهاينة في المفاوضات الفعلية؟ ما هو الثمن ومدى خطره ع لبنان؟

@US_SrAdvisorAF u r undercutting @UNSMILibya in every sense of the word without offering any serious/workable/acceptable alternative. You're dismissing the aspiration of the entire nation w.out any sort of guarantees to what will happen in the day after you & your boss are gone for example?

[Mustafa Fetouri @MFetouri]

what @US_SrAdvisorAF is trying 2broker in Libya & regardless of all details emphasizes 2 important things 4Libyans: 1)Trump & his admin is transactional in essence & 2)The illusion of the Rev.4freedom/prosperity & democracy r mere illusion in Libya. Promises of paradise led 2hell

المغرب ضد فرنسا أمس: أن على قناعة تامة أن المغاربةكان بأمكانهم اداء أفضل ولكنهم اختاروا الا يفعلوا. ولدي أحساس، وأن به بعض المبالغة، أنهم باعوا المباراة قبل أن تنطلق لأسباب الله وحده وهم يعلمونها. حارسهم كان نجما بلا منازع ولكن هجومهم كان مشتت أكثر من المقبول.

@eljabouessam حياك الله.فكرة المقال هي ان موضوع الفوضى الخلاقة نظرية مؤامرة صاغها العرب وليست موجودة كمبدأ سياسي قائم ومنعكس كممارسة أبان رئاسة بوش الإبن أو سواه بمن فيهم ترمب الآن وهو جمهوري. تلك هي فكرة مقالي تماما بأستثناء توسعي ف الشرح لإقنع القُراء بما أقول ولم أستخدم كلمة مؤامرة.

[Mustafa Fetouri @MFetouri]

هل تستغرب/تتفاجأ ان قلت لك أن فكرة "الفوضى الخلاقة" كمبدأ سياسي أمريكي أبان فترة بوش الإبن هي كذبة وفرية لم يكن لها يوما من وجود ولا علاقة لها بأي مبدأ سياسي او تفكير أمريكي يخص منطقتنا المنكوبة بالمفكرين والساسة وأشباهمها من العامة.أقرأ هذا للمزيدhttps://t.co/hICGIvIOmV

The israelis have already killed one of Dr Hussam Abu Safiya’s sons, & now it’s Dr Hussam’s turn: go viral, be loud, #Say .. before it’s too late

[New Lines Magazine @newlinesmag]

NEW: Expressions of reverence, grief and devotion will abound at Khamenei’s funeral in Iraq, but the Axis of Resistance’s messaging simplifies a much more complex reality. @harith_hasan explains the ambiguities of solidarity for @newlinesmag. https://t.co/B8yEuC76vT

BBC propagandists only needed to speak with Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya's colleagues, as I did. But they chose to regurgitate Israeli LIES.

I asked a Palestinian medic I've known since 2008 when I lived in Gaza, Ahmad abu Foul. He knows Dr. Hussam. He replied:

“Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya is originally a pediatrician who worked under the Palestinian Ministry of Health. During the Palestinian division in 2006, he refused to stop working or stay at home and continued providing medical and humanitarian care to serve the Palestinian people.

Later, he was appointed director of Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza. The hospital belongs to the Medical Services Agency, but during the war it became a government emergency hospital under the Ministry of Interior and the Palestinian Ministry of Health

It is important to note that Kamal Adwan is a specialized children’s hospital and is not affiliated with any military faction. Dr. Abu Safiya is considered one of the most prominent and skilled pediatricians in Gaza, and he was granted the rank of brigadier by the Gaza government due to his work in a government institution.”

I also asked Dr. Omar Shabat ( @DrOmar_shaba ) an orthopedic surgeon in northern Gaza:

“I worked with him for two years during the war. When I wanted to perform surgeries on the injured, we didn’t have an anesthesiologist. Dr. Hussam is a pediatrician, but he told me he would become an anesthesiologist, and that’s exactly what happened; he anesthetized the injured.

Everyone should know that Dr. Hussam is a pediatrician at a hospital called the Military Medical Services Hospital. This hospital assigns military ranks to all employees, but it’s just a title and not an actual responsibility.”

@DropSiteNews likewise noted:

"The New York Post falsely claimed that Dr. Abu Safiya is a “Hamas colonel.” In reality, he served in the Military Medical Services, a government medical body responsible for providing healthcare to police and security personnel, functionally equivalent to a state medical corps rather than a partisan armed group. The article itself inadvertently admits this, writing that “Safiya’s photo appeared on the Gaza Medical Services’ Facebook page — a group overseen by the Hamas-run health ministry,” an admission that Abu Safiya belonged to a government health institution, not an armed faction.

Basem Naim, a senior Hamas official and former Palestinian minister of health, himself a physician with a degree in medicine from Germany, explained that Kamal Adwan Hospital operates through cooperation between the Ministries of Health and Interior, “a model consistent with international norms in public service provision.”

In comments to Drop Site News, he further clarified that Hamas and the Qassam Brigades do not use ranks such as “colonel,” emphasizing that the rank cited belongs to the Palestinian government’s medical corps, not Hamas’s military wing. Naim also stated that the uniform described as “Hamas camo” in the NY Post article has no affiliation with any resistance faction..."

There is always a question whose answer can test the human conscience: “A person who does not feel human suffering is not a human being”

[Hassan I. Hassan @hxhassan]

During Ali Khamenei funeral, the Iranian regime recited not-so-subtle verses from the Quran before each foreign delegation, carefully curated to signal how the regime feels about them exactly. Here is a sample:

Hamas: “Among the believers are men who have proven true to what they pledged to God. Some of them have fulfilled their pledge, others are waiting their turn. They have never changed their commitment in the least.”

Hezbollah: “Do not falter or grieve, for you will have the upper hand, if you are true believers. If you have suffered injuries, they suffered similarly. We alternate these days of victory and defeat among people so that God may reveal the true believers, choose martyrs from among you, and God does not like the wrongdoers.”

Palestinian Islamic Jihad: "So that God may forgive you for your past and future shortcomings, perfect His favor upon you, and guide you along the Straight Path, and so that God will help you with a mighty victory."

China: “God ordained this only as good news for you and reassurance for your hearts. And victory comes only from God.”

Iraq’s Hashd al-Shaabi PMUs: "Never say that those martyred in the cause of God are dead; in fact, they are alive! But you do not perceive it."

Saudi Arabia: “There was certainly a sign for you in the two armies that met in battle: one fighting in the cause of God and the other disbelieving. The believers saw their enemy twice their number. But God supports with His victory whoever He wills. Surely in this is a lesson for people of insight.”

Qatar: "So that God may forgive you for your past and future shortcomings, perfect His favor upon you, and guide you along the Straight Path, and so that God will help you with a mighty victory."

Turkey: “God has elevated in rank those who strive with their wealth and their lives above those who stay behind. God has promised each a fine reward, but those who strive will receive a far better reward than the others.”

Pakistan: "And say, 'My Lord! Grant me an honorable entrance and an honorable exit, and give me a supporting authority from Yourself.'"

Egypt: “Their reward with their Lord will be Gardens of Eternity, under which rivers flow, to stay there for ever and ever. God is pleased with them and they are pleased with Him. This is only for those in awe of their Lord.”

بالفيديو..النائب علي التكبالي: "تريدونني أن أستقيل من مجلس النواب؟ ماذا سأفعل بعدها؟ هل ستطعمونني أنتم أم من يطعمني؟
هل تريدونني أن أذهب وأشتغل في دكان من الدكاكين أم ماذا؟"
الراجل قالها صراحة.. قال قاعد عشان الفلوس.. لا يوجد شيء يمكن أن يقال، لقد تحول المشهد برمته إلى ما يشبه اللعنة! برأيكم.. ما سر صحة الوجه الاستثنائية التي يمتلكها النواب وأعضاء مجلس الدولة؟

[Javad Zarif @JZarif]

ایران، پس از دو قرن تجربه تلخ ناامنی و آسیب‌پذیری، با هدایت رهبر شهید به مرحله‌ای رسید که در گزاره «دوران بزن در رو تمام شده است» متبلور است. این تغییر پس از دو سده، احساس خودباوری و اعتماد به توان داخلی را برای ایران و ایرانی به ارمغان آورد.
