Save Gaza Campaign’s Post

It baffles me that the average American considers Muslims as terrorists based on Zionist backed propaganda. But never for once questioned the propaganda machines’ narratives focusing on distorting  the truth. We have seen countless times how wording/terminology and delivery of news can define a person’s perception of a situation and how it is used to downplay atrocities or used to instigate anger. Ever wondered why Jewish or Christian law is not ever portrayed in this light despite having such inconceivable beliefs as demonstrated below? Follow the money to see who controls your favorite source of information. This is the key to answering why everything is so hushed one side of the spectrum. it’s high time people learn about Islamic Justice and law (sharia) with sincerity from reputable sources (Muslims) and compare it to orthodox Judeo-Christian teachings (read the Bible, Talmud, Torah). The results I promise you will shock you to the core. Stop believing everything your media shows you. For once, do your own research and grow a spine to speak out against injustice

Read this and listen to the truth about Israel.

💡 The biggest misinformation is portraying Jews as foreign colonialists in their own land. Loay Alshareef, a Muslim advocate for peace, explains: Israel has always been there❗️ ➡️ The rejection of Jewish sovereignty in their ancestral homeland is the main issue. The conflict dates back to around 1000 BCE, emphasizing the long-standing Jewish presence in their ancestral homeland. ➡️ The term "Jew" comes from the land of Judah, where Jews were historically from, further cementing their indigenous status: The land has deep religious and historical significance for Jews, including names and places that are still recognized today. ➡️ Many Muslims honor Jewish prophets and historical figures, indicating a shared heritage and challenging the narrative of Jews as outsiders. ➡️ There is a lack of awareness about these historical and religious connections among some Muslims, which fuels the misinformation. Understanding these historical facts is crucial for moving forward and addressing the conflict accurately.

A perfect starting point for my lecture on Richard the Lionheart for Super-Heroes (past and present) module on Monday!

Happy Easter! As we celebrate, let's also remember those enduring persecution. In this Washington Examiner article, I highlight the situation in Iraq with Chaldean Christians cancelling Easter celebrations to highlight their dire situation. Genocides continue against Uyghurs in China & Rohingya in Burma with increasing persecution against Christians in those countries and Nigeria, Somalia, Libya and Pakistan, where also see increased persecution against Ahmadiyyas. Religious freedom is being threatened in NE Syria with a potential new Turkish invasion. I highlight a hero of the Christian faith, Corrie Ten Boom, who survived a concentration camp in the Holocaust for standing up for those of another faith - her Jewish neighbors. We should follow her example & stand up for each other against persecution of anyone because of their religion or belief. As we show in our work at IRF Secretariat, in order to work with partners of all faiths, we don’t need to compromise our religious beliefs. Instead, we bring our whole selves, including our strongly held beliefs, while accepting the human dignity of those with different beliefs. We stand for each other while working together to build religious freedom for all. This is the only way to interrupt the years of worsening religious freedom conditions and create long-term peace and stability. https://lnkd.in/e6x9EmDV

Providence Magazine just published my latest article on Ukraine's law banishing Russian Orthodox Church activities in Ukraine and promulgation of its "Russian World" doctrine. The law gives the ROC's subsidiary in Ukraine, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, a simple choice: does it want to remain formally affiliated with the primary propagandist and cheerleader for Russia's war on Ukraine or will it choose to become independent of Russia as all other religious organizations inside Ukraine, including 7 other Orthodox denominations, have done? Those who know the sordid history of the ROC's subordination to the Soviet state realize that all ROC hierarchs and the hierarchs of the UOC were appointed only with the approval of the FSB and its predecessor, the KGB. Russia's actions to subordinate all religious organizations in occupied Ukraine to Russian religious centers controlled by the FSB vividly illustrates the reasons why in the case of Ukraine, Russian religious centers are as much the enemy as the troops who fire the missiles daily killing Ukrainians. https://lnkd.in/e6U6kcyA

Religious zionism parties in Israel are controlling governments since more than 20 years and they are pushing the military towards religious ideologies. The heads of the national police, the Mossad spy agency and the Shin Bet domestic security service were all Religious-Zionists in 2016. The military has also felt the growing influence of rabbis who have introduced matters of faith and politics to the battlefield. For Religious-Zionists, caring for places like Jewish settlements in Palestine is a way of fulfilling a religious obligation and building the Jewish state. https://lnkd.in/egXg6v8A

New Post: Sabotage of Ezidi Tombs: A Threat to Stability and Coexistence in Syria - The recent desecration of tombs in the predominantly Ezidi village of Toliko, situated in the Al-Hasakah countryside of Syria, has sparked widespread outrage and concern among Ezidi civilians. These acts of sabotage not only disrespect the sanctity of the deceased but also pose a significant threat to the fragile state of stability in the region, potentially forcing the remaining Ezidi residents to displace. The Ezidi people, already marginalized and vulnerable, faces yet another assault on their cultural and religious heritage. Tombs, revered as sacred places in all religions and cultures, hold immense significance for the Ezidi people. They serve as […]https://lnkd.in/dEYbB6Fd
