The judge asked the assassin of former Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, "Why did you kill President Sadat?"
The assassin replied, "Because he was secular."
The judge immediately asked the next question, "What does secular mean?"
The assassin said, "I don't know."
The judge asked the attacker who tried to stab the late Egyptian writer Naguib Mahfouz, "Why did you stab Naguib?"
The terrorist replied, "Because he wrote the anti-religious novel 'Children of Gebelawi'."
The judge showed interest, "Have you read the novel?"
The criminal replied, "No."
The judge asked the murderer of Egyptian writer Farag Foda, "Why did you kill Farag Foda?"
The assassin replied, "Because he had no faith."
The judge, curious to know more, asked, "How did you know he had no faith?"
The terrorist answered, "Everything is clear from reading his books."
The judge's curiosity increased, "In which of his books did you find proof of his lack of faith?"
The assassin admitted, "I don't know the name of the book. I didn't read any of it."
The judge was surprised, "Why didn't you read it?"
The assassin said, "I cannot read or write."
Hatred never spreads through knowledge. Hatred spreads through ignorance. Society pays the price of ignorance by keeping people ignorant.

India should compulsorily start 1 year of basic army training after class 12th.
We need discipline, civic sense and camaraderie.
College should start after that.
What do you think?
Many foreigners are hurling abuse at India, claiming accidents like the Air India crash are “expected.” Time for a quick reality check:
India operates 8,000+ flights every day, that is over 3 million a year.
Only 2 fatal commercial crashes in 10 years before this. That’s a safety record on par with the U.S. and EU.
India ranks 48th in ICAO’s aviation safety oversight rankings ahead of:
China (49)
Isreal (50)
Turkey (54)
Norway (52)
India also holds FAA Category 1 status, meaning it meets the highest international safety standards.
Check facts before spewing hate!
@shindig101@FBIDirectorKash Dude, don't disregard the fact that such a radicalised individual was able to immigrate & find a home in Canada. Where were the Canadian authorities then!
Actually NATO US and Ikraine broke the treaty first. In the early 90s they signed a treaty with Russia called the Warsaw pact. Well in that treaty they agreed there would always be a buffer country between Russia and NATO. Well when US and NATO tried adding Ukraine to NATO it broke the Warsaw pact. Knowing history would help you to not say stupid stuff.
🚨TW : ACCIDENT
An SUV, cruising on the correct side of highway. Overspeeding? Unlikely. It’s an NH and speeds up to 110 km/h are permitted. He’s doing around 70. Suddenly, he's forced to swerve left as a tractor comes from wrong side.
As a result, the SUV slams into a bike, four people on it, no helmets, riding against traffic. All four die.
A tragic scene. But the one person who’s least likely at fault, the car driver, is the one who’ll be held accountable. He’ll pay with money, endless court rounds, and probably a few years behind bars. The tractor guy? Almost certainly walks away untouched.
📍 Gorakhpur, UP.
This has to be clearly said.
India does not have allies. It will never naturally fit with the west because it isn’t white. It won’t fit with Russia because Russia needs China to survive. It won’t fit with Middle East and gradually Africa due to religion and culture. It won’t a vessel state to nefarious designs of powers and thus, won’t get in their good books.
The journey to India’s domination will be lonely, troubling and full of hurdles. We need to accept that and stop simping for anyone- be it Trump, Putin, Macron or MBS.
Yes, if the top 10% richest are excluded, India's GDP per capita drops to ~$1,128, similar to African countries like Senegal ($1,090) and Cameroon ($1,150). This reflects India's high income inequality, where the top 10% hold ~57% of national income, skewing the overall figure of $2,613.
