Biden called off second Syria strike

Joe Biden called off an airstrike on a second target in Syria at the last minute after intelligence reported the presence of a woman and children at the site. Following 10 days of deliberations, Mr Biden had ordered the Pentagon to proceed with strikes on two Iranian-backed militia targets in Syria on 26 February. The strikes were in response to the rocket attack against US forces in northern Iraq in mid-February. The president received an urgent warning from an aide just 30 minutes before the bombs were set to fall, according to reporting by The Wall Street Journal. Battlefield reconnaissance reported a woman with children in a courtyard at one site, and t…

http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/03/06/us-ukraine-crisis-idUSBREA1Q1E820140306 (Reuters) - Crimea's parliament voted to join Russia on Thursday and its Moscow-backed government set a referendum on the decision in 10 days' time in a dramatic escalation of the crisis over the Ukrainian Black Sea peninsula. The sudden acceleration of moves to bring Crimea, which has an ethnic Russian majority and has effectively been seized by Russian forces, formally under Moscow's rule came as European Union leaders held an emergency summit groping for ways to pressure Russia to back down and accept mediation. The 28-nation EU condemned Russian actions in Crimea as illegal, voiced…

The month of Shahr Ramadan is fast approachings and as most of you know the situation in Yemen is very dire. There are 6 million at risk of starvation and many will not have the means to break their fast. Living in the West, myself as well as many other brothers and sisters would like to send support to our brothers and sisters there but the problem is that it seems everyone and their brother is collecting money for Yemen, but how much of that aid is really reaching the people who need it. Can some brothers and sisters with first hand knowledge of the situation (those who live in Yemen or who have actually spent time 'on the ground' amoung the people who need it) rec…

In sayed Khamene'i's (unfortunate) statement he said: “This war is a bitter incident and it threatens the security of the region. Of course, all Azerbaijani territories occupied by Armenia should be freed. All these lands should be given back to Azerbaijan. One of the main conditions is that these lands should be returned to Azerbaijan. The Republic of Azerbaijan is entitled to be in control of these lands, and therefore, all of them should be freed,” Now to be fair at the time he said this it was obvious that Azerbaijan were going to win so there was no point backing a loosing horse. The issue is that this statement can be understood differently depending on y…

https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/26/politics/biden-administration-khashoggi-report/index.html If you're in Saudi, you might have this link blocked. Yes, according to US Intelligence in an extensive investigation, MBS is responsible for the Murder and dessicration of the corpse of Jamal Khashoggi. Will anything happen because of this ? Asked why the US had failed to punish the crown prince personally, Blinken told reporters at the State Department Friday that "what we've done by the actions that we've taken is really not to rupture the relationship, but to recalibrate it, to be more in line with our interests and our values. And I think that we have to understa…

Salam Aleykum, I think that history is some times even more important than the present, because you will not be able to understand the present without understanding the past, more importantly you will not be able to predict the future without studying the past. This is an interesting history video summarizing the U.S involvement in the Middle East starting at around 1930's and ending just before the invasion of Afghanistan, Libya, Iraq and Syria.

This girl from sweden who has gained lots of publicity all around the world, what is up with all the hype. Would a person who school strike for people under oppression gain the same publicity. Rohingya, yemen, palestine, Iraq, Syria, afghanistan, countries in Africa etc. Why don't we have people school strike for humans. All this hype around that girl yet we face serious problems involving human genocide and I don't see anyone school strike for that nor any news media covering that. May Allah hasten the reappearance of our Imam.

Salam. I frequent a jewish forum and I've noticed a disturbing pattern between Shias and Jews when it comes to the idea of a country which they believe is solely represented by the religion. For jews, that country is Israel and for Shias that country is Iran. On the jewish forum that I go to, people have this attitude towards Israel that you can't criticize it, people get banned for just saying one or two things they disagree with over when it comes to Israel, Israeli-Jews who frequent that forum feel superior to their Jewish counterparts who do not live in Israel and bash them. I've seen this exact behavior on Shiachat where I've seen people with some Iranian tie…

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/c...icle2237940.ece This story in the Sunday Times reports: A hidden world in which Asian men “groom” young white girls for sex has been exposed with the jailing yesterday of two men for child-abuse offences. What's very interesting is the reaction of the readers: 1. Hindus saying we don't want to be lumped with Muslims, so don't refer to these people as Asian. 2. Hindus saying that this is all because of deviant Muslim culture and this sort of thing is not practised by us 3. White Britons saying that Muslims are raping girls around the country and its due to their repressive religion. 4. White Britons saying that this sort of stor…

For those of you who think this is not possible, believe me, it's very possible. It seems that we are getting bad signals regarding Biden doing anything spectacular, that would actually change the lives of working people in a positive way (This was his main campaign message, btw). If he fails to do anything significant, he will be painted as a 'failed President' and a 'big talker, but no action'. In this case, most likely we will see Trump or a Trump clone back in 2024 ? One of the main things Biden ran on was solving the student loan debt crisis, which is a big, big deal here in the US. Most people, including many Republicans believe in canceling large amounts…

post1300hrs, Friday(afternoon!) 13Oct17 The nutworks ABC and CBS have carried live reports of Pres. Trump announcing his decision not to "re-certify" the nuclear development agreement with lran. China, Russia and the EU have announced they will continue with this agreement. Nearly coincident with Trump's press conference, The Atlantic published online this article dated yesterday, 12Oct17: https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2017/10/iran-deal-next/542379/ which explains the mechanisms involved in Trump's action.

l checked the other threads on this forum, but this would fit under several of them. So l start this one. Retired Major General Rob't Scales, former Commandant of the Army War College, wrote an article published in December, 2011, in which he states: "Picking tomorrow's enemy is big business, with thousands of jobs and billions of dollars held captive to the musings of Beltway gurus who seek to convince those who write the checks that their choice of our next enemy is the right one."

The respected Maulana explains how the world will change in the post corona world, with a global digital currency, the rise of China and how it will run the economic affairs of the world, autonomous rented vehicles (loss of ownership?), the creation of a digital society and how we need to maintain our connection with Muhammad wa Aale Muhammad. He explains how this was to happen in 20-30 years time but corona has sped up the process. The scholar is highly respected in Pakistan and the Urdu speaking audience all around the world and was given his Amamah by Ayatullah Bahjat. Some of these things have been said by “conspiracy theorists” for a long time now. My apolo…

Came across this and found it interesting enough to share: Modern Shi’i Islam as we know it would not exist without South Asia. It all starts in #Lucknow in North India. From 1775-1856, the city was the capital of the state of Awadh (or Oudh). Its Shi’i rulers, the nawwabs, used splendid architecture to propagate their faith. Najaf in Ottoman Iraq, by contrast, was then far from the bustling global center of Shi’i learning and pilgrimage that it is today. This is not to downplay the city’s historical importance due to the shrine of Ali b. Abi Talib (d. 661), the fourth caliph & first Shi’i Imam. Yet, before the 19th century, Najaf faced two constant and…

Islamqa.info promotes hate speech, so the whole "don't eat meat from Shia" thing is not news. However, that they have advanced the claim that Shias "deserve to be executed" means that Islamqa.info deserves to have their domain name revoked without a refund from the registrar. A complaint to the registrar is being written to have the site taken down or risk being sued for being a domain host for terrorism as we speak.

I think Dalio may be wrong to compare 2008 to 1929. I think the current crisis is closer to 1929 in terms of not being able to reduce rates further. I am posting this video after seeing that thread on the 'Great Reset'. Many economies around the world have been slowly moving towards debt ridden disasters. Governments have responded to these economic problems by lowering interest rates and creating more money. This leads to greater debt because of greater borrowing, the inflation of asset prices and the debasement of national currencies. It also leads to greater wealth gaps because the rich hold mostly assets while the poor hold more cash. Ray Dalio has also done…

Tulsi Gabbard calls out the US dirty war on Syria that Biden, aides admit to AARON MATÉ·MARCH 5, 2021 As Tulsi Gabbard criticizes former Congressional colleagues for ignoring the ongoing US dirty war and sanctions on Syria, a look at the comments of Joe Biden and top aides show that they have admitted to the same underlying, horrific facts. Gabbard only stands apart — and is even vilified — for being willing to call it out. While Joe Biden has faced some mild Congressional pushback for bombing the Iraq-Syria border, Tulsi Gabbard says her former colleagues are ignoring the larger issue: the US ongoing dirty war on Syria. After a decade of proxy warfare that empowered Al Qaeda and ISIS, the US is now occupying one-third of Syria and imposing crippling sanctions that are crushing Syria’s economy and preventing reconstruction. While Gabbard has been vilified for her stance on Syria, many top White House officials — including Joe Biden himself — have already acknowledged the same facts that she has called out. Aaron Maté plays clips of Biden and some of his most senior aides admitting to the horrific realities of the US dirty war on Syria, and argues that Gabbard only stands apart in being wiling to criticize it. Two ways to listen: https://m.soundcloud.com/pushbackshow/tulsi-gabbard-calls-out-the-us-dirty-war-on-syria-that-biden-aides-admit-to

I joke, but it recently dawned on me that most likely (statistically speaking) I'll be marrying out of my race and culture and I don't know what to make of that tbh. I like to think I don't care about (non-Islamic) traditions but like, it's nicer if things are easy I don't know. Inshallah I'll figure it out.
