Way to go! We need more Turks that join the Arena of Geopolitics!

"It's an ISRAELI AGGRESSION, and you call it PREEMPTIVE."

Atlantic Council Senior Fellow Omer Ozkizilcik clashes with former Israeli military intelligence officer Dan Feferman over Israel’s military actions in Syria.

“I was angry. I told (Israel) to stop, or our entire future relationship was endangered. I used the word holocaust deliberately & said the symbol of the war was becoming a picture of a 7-month-old baby with its arms blown off,” Reagan noted in his diary.

The European Union is a Christian Union, which used Muslim Turks for their dirty NATO wars in Asia. They never wanted them to join the EU Christian Club. It's difficult to understand Geopolitics when you are watching from the other side of the Ocean.

These are IDF tactics - US Military is a Military of shame.

[Trita Parsi @tparsi]

Roughly ten days after the Trump administration claimed its new sanctions on Iran would make military action unnecessary, the US bombs a wedding in southern Iran, killing at least five people, including a 4-year old child...

These are the scenes from the hospital.

[Bushra Shaikh @Bushra1Shaikh]

Still waiting for the condemnation statements from the GCC and other Middle Eastern states over the killing of Iranian civilians at a wedding by American bombs.

Condemning the killing of civilians should be a non-issue. Sectarian politics should never determine whose suffering deserves empathy.

And yet it has to be said: Sirik County is a largely Sunni Muslim community - just as Minab school was.

So where is the outrage from Sunni Muslim leaders?

[Trita Parsi @tparsi]

I have long stopped being shocked by headlines in Western mainstream media. But every once in a while, I am forced to rediscover my capacity to be stunned.

Here is how the BBC reported on the US bombing Iran and killing people at a wedding.

According to Iranian media, this is the 4-year-old boy who was killed in the US airstrikes that hit a wedding party in Southern Iran on Tuesday, not far from the elementary school where the US killed more than 150 school children on the first day of Trump's war of choice.

The son of the former Shah, Reza Pahlavi, pushed for this war, and his supporters still dance in the streets to celebrate it.

@ProudSocialist American Government = Terrorist.

[Power to the People ☭🕊 @ProudSocialist]

The United States just bombed a wedding in Kuhestak, Iran murdering multiple people and injuring more than 50 others.

Our government is the terrorist.

[Dr Rahmeh Aladwan @doctor_rahmeh]

Theodor Herzl was not a 'secular jew' or an 'atheist jew'.

He explicitly viewed himself as a chosen, messianic figure executing a divine spiritual mission.

He wrote about his messianic dreams, celebrated jewish holidays, and was affiliated to a synagogue.

He belonged to Neolog Judaism: a religious stream that intentionally modernised outer practices.

In his primary political manifesto, The Jewish State (1896), he dedicated a whole chapter to the role of religion in a future country. He wrote: 'We shall recognise our integration only by our faith. We shall create a home for our people, and the faith of our fathers will be our guide'.

In December 1897 in Die Welt, he described his deep personal, spiritual return to the ancient faith through lighting the Hanukkah candles.

At the end of his speech at the sixth zionist congress in 1903, he raised his right hand and recited Psalm 137:5 in Hebrew to prove his true allegiance:

'If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand wither [or 'forget its skill'].'

So where did the 'secular' framing come from?

When Herzl launched political zionism, a minority of anti-zionist Orthodox rabbis were threatened by him. They didn't want him hijacking their religious authority. They branded him as 'assimilated' and 'non-believing'.

Ironically, the mainstream zionist movement accepted and protected this label as an international public relations shield.

Why?

They knew that if the international community, European empires or the United Nations viewed zionism as a fanatical, literal religious and messianic movement seeking to fulfill biblical prophecy, it would be rejected as dangerous religious extremism.

[Pepe Escobar @RealPepeEscobar]

One of the key documents signed at the SCO in Bishkek: regulating the Universal Center for Countering Security Challenges and Threats to SCO Member States.

As in fighting imperial Hybrid - and Hot - Wars.

Iran also proposed a development bank and an energy consortium.

@clashreport Ottoman Armenians - received weapons from the Russians and the British and fought against Ottoman Turks and Kurds. The Russians helped them to get their own Armenian State. And then the Armenians sold Russia for the West. Armenians always go with the Wind :-)
