The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
All mosque imams in the UAE have been instructed to perform Qunūt in the Fajr and Maghrib prayers, following the Sunnah during times of calamities, hardships, and crises.
In times of trials and hardships, turning to Allah through duʿāʾ and Qunūt in prayer is from the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ. May Allah lift the hardship, protect the Muslims, and bring relief to the oppressed.
After 11pm on New Year’s Eve 13 years ago a locum GP rang our doorbell. She’d seen our 6 year old son’s blood test results and didn’t want to wait til morning. He had leukaemia with dangerous complications. I have no idea what her name is but she saved his life. Cheers to her 🥂
A poor PUNJABI father of a girl child worked as a carpenter . When his daughter decided to play cricket, he backed her . Got her into professional cricket training. His colleagues mocked him & laughed at him . He had a firm belief that his girl was special . The girl turned into a fine alrounder . When TEAM INDIA was struggling against SL in the WC opener, she scored the decisive runs, gave India a triumphant start to the campaign . She was consistently decent with the bat & ball. Scored a quick fire cameo & hit the winning runs in the semi finals, was again decent with the bat & ball in the finals , took the most crucial catch to dimiss LAURA WOLVAARDT . Her father watched the finals on a big screen with the villagers , probably also along with those who once laughed at him . The man broke out after his daughter became a World champion yesterday. The name is AMANJOT KAUR.
I was watching the match in HARYANA , a state that was once infamous for patriarchy, high female foetecide, bothersome male female ratio . I could hear crackers after every single S.AFRICAN wicket, the city went haywire after the final wicket fell . It was like DEEPAWALI out here . That was so refreshing .
AMANJOT KAUR … watta story .
There is something ontologically evil about starving people for 2 weeks and then massacring 300 people like this, pure unadulterated evil, a truly sick society
Today we learned the cutoff for IMT is 15 this year.
This is an increase from last year AFTER they dropped total points from 40 to 30.
Come this August, 100s if not 1000s of doctors unemployed.
This is a national scandal.
His body is gone. Omar Ashour‘s body was completely vanished by an Israeli missile. May his soul dwell forever in paradise. Before you see them as beheaded torn up pieces of flesh, see their beautiful smiles before this horror was visited upon them.
After all the transphobia, witch-hunting, and the despicable and unsportsmanlike disrespect shown by a handful of athletes - let THIS image be the one that stays with you:
After Imane Khelif won her gold medal bout her opponent, Yang Liu of China, embraced her with a smile.
