Justice based on #opportunities cannot be justice. This leads to #injustice and as a result the entire world is suffering from unrest. This is a circular effect. Today is my turn, tomorrow will be yours. So break this cycle and develop a truly #civilized world. #justiceforall #peaceandprosperity #humanrightsforall

Political violence is borne of structural violence. We cannot reduce the former without understanding and addressing its origins in earnest. “Lowering the temperature” of our political discourse may be a start, but it is by no means a real solution to what plagues our nation. This is the work. #politicalviolence #structuralviolence

Confronting the Demons of Society: The Scourge of Rape and the Fight for Justice In the heart of every society, there lurk demons that prey on the vulnerable, sowing seeds of fear and perpetuating cycles of violence. One of the most insidious of these demons is rape, a crime that not only violates the bodily autonomy of its victims but also shatters the very fabric of trust and safety within communities. The fight against this demon is not just a legal battle but a societal one, requiring a collective confrontation of the deep-rooted issues that allow such violence to persist. Break the silence, break the cycle.

A Criminal Defence Lawyer's take on a Montreal prayer of the week (as translated below per the article contained herein): "Allah, take care of these Zionist aggressors. Allah, take care of the enemies of the people of Gaza. Allah, identify them all, then exterminate them. And don't spare any of them," Adil Charkaoui told a crowd in Arabic at a pro-Palestinian protest on Oct. 28. via Twitter This would make for an interesting Crim Law 101 exam: 1. Is it hate speech and incitement of violence if the call is for "Allah" to identify, exterminate, and not spare enemies, not for "people" to do so? 2. Is it hate speech and incitement of violence if the call to identify, exterminate, and not spare the enemies of Gaza doesn't refer expressly to Jews, and certainly not to ALL Jews, and not ONLY Jews? 3. Is it hate speech and incitement of violence if the call is to identify, exterminate, and not spare ONLY "zionist aggressors" and ONLY "enemies of the people of Gaza" aka ANYONE and EVERYONE who supports Israel ANYWHERE around the world? 4. Since the "people of Gaza" and the "Government of Gaza" is Hamas, do the enemies of the people of Gaza not also include any government who labels Hamas a terrorist organization? A bonus question: Am I in a conflict of interest were I to take this case because my client is asking "Allah", or possibly someone acting in Allah's name, to exterminate me if I stand with Israel?

What the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution does not guarantee is the legal right to take the law into one's own hands. And genocide is a crime against humanity. 'Just after Memorial Day of 1921, a White mob destroyed 35 city blocks of the Greenwood District, a community in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The Tulsa massacre resulted in between 100 and 300 deaths, the decimation of more than 1,200 homes and the burning of churches, schools, businesses, a hospital and library.' I see history repeating itself but now they are called Palestinians. It is not okay to kill all Puerto Ricans because some are criminals. It is not okay to kill all Mexicans because some are criminals. Why is it okay to kill all Palestinians in Gaza because some are Hamas? If we attempt to prosper, there's a problem. If we attempt to survive, there's a problem. What's the real problem?

Standing Against Violence: A Call for Global Unity and Peace. unequivocally condemn the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. Violence, in any form or shape, is unacceptable anywhere (zero tolerance to violence). I wish former President Trump a swift & complete recovery soon. Meanwhile, it's crucial to recognize that violence anywhere must be equally condemned. Allowing it to exist in one place only makes it a matter of time before it reaches us all. We cannot remain shielded in a world increasingly besieged by violence, whether in America, Africa, Middle East, South America, or elsewhere. Zero Tolerance for Violence: A Global Imperative We must condemn violence universally. Allowing it anywhere only ensures it spreads everywhere. Our safety depends on a united stand against violence, creating a safer, more peaceful world for all. #mohamed #violence #politics #social #harmony

Shooters in houses of worship. Gangs attacking mass transit commuters in New York. Deadly road and club/bar rage. Youngsters killing youngsters. Antisemitic, racial attacks on campuses and public spaces. Media that feeds on and entertains with violent news clips and programming. Political circles that further divide for advantage. We have long since abandoned our dedication to civil society and become a house divided. We are strangers to one another and to ourselves. The center no longer can hold. And enemies are at the door. So where do we go from here? First, we need to take a long look at ourselves. Do we in what we say and do contribute even in a small way to the discord/negativity around us? Do we look for/bring out the best or the worst in others? How does that reflect our attitude toward ourselves? Do we do exactly what our employer/client wants even if that may not be for the best of our community? Do we spend most of our time working and what’s left with family/friends? Do we ever spend time in prayer? Perhaps it’s a good time to reflect on the Civil War – in which more people died in our country than in all the wars combined – and meditate on what President Lincoln said at Gettysburg. https://lnkd.in/esTB3uBf

Here is a link to all the #uk  MPs who abstained from voting. for a ceasefire in Gaza.  Familiarize yourself with their names and the faces. Challenge them and NEVER vote for them again.  MPs who abstain from voting should be  utterly ashamed - the decision to not vote on the ceasefire speaks about what is truly in their hearts - greed for power and money and they couldn’t care less about the children and babies being bombed and starving to death in Gaza. They all have blood on your hands. They should never be in a position of power. Their position is an honor to serve the needs of the people. Their indifference is not a service to us. We need action now. We need a ceasefire in Gaza to stop more killings of innocent lives.  https://lnkd.in/eAQDrbku #stopthegenocide #israelisaterroriststate #removesunak
