The "far-right" the bishops seem to have no problem dialoguing with is the Islamic far-right which is allied to the atheist far-left (like LFI). x.com/FBBlackler/sta…

"Al-Bukhaiti warns Turkey and Pakistan against intervening in support of Saudi Arabia, threatening to strike them with an “iron fist.” He goes further, declaring that just as Houthis are “teaching the Saudis a lesson today,” they will also “teach Turks and Pakistanis manners” if x.com/BashaReport/st…

"At least 7 Hezbollah-backed cells were dismantled in Syria since July 2025 (22 operatives arrested). This is the game Hezbollah is playing since 2025: saying one thing publicly while operating behind the scenes to destabilize post-Assad transition." x.com/QalaatAlMudiq/…

So Europeans scared of the rise of the alleged "far-right" are upset with people waving French or Spanish or English flags and yet oddly passive when it comes to the banners of Palestine or Hezbollah or Algeria...

Much is talked about Hezbollah attacking Israel. But Hezbollah has spend as much or more time over the past year sowing death and destruction inside Syria. x.com/QalaatAlMudiq/…

@AlexVatanka The supposedly independent "Lebanese daily Al Akhbar" are also Arab proxies working for Iran (for Hezbollah in this case) though.

People like Aoun II and his "advisors" seem intent on burying Lebanon once and for all. If they actually believe that Hezbollah "is right" about anything then they can pick up a rifle and head south. Tragic. x.com/hahussain/stat…

هل تعلمون أن لدى الأمم المتحدة وكالتين لشؤون اللاجئين؟ المفوضية السامية للأمم المتحدة لشؤون اللاجئين (UNHCR) تساعد اللاجئين حول العالم على إعادة بناء حياتهم وإيجاد حلول دائمة لأوضاعهم. أما الأونروا (UNRWA)، فقد أُنشئت خصيصًا للفلسطينيين، وتحافظ على نظام منفصل تنتقل فيه صفة اللاجئ

@bagshiller777 They can enjoy becoming "North Gaza" instead.

So Israel is supposed to withdraw and then - magically, without a confrontation - Hezbollah will disarm. What a joke. This is like a repeat of UNSCR 1701 TWENTY YEARS AGO which neither the Lebanese state nor Hezbollah implemented. x.com/arabnews/statu…

What got Lebanon into this trouble in the first place is that you had TWO forces in the South - the LAF and UNIFIL - neither of which could or would stop a third force - Hezbollah - from dragging Lebanon into war at any time. How is that to be avoided now without coercion?

There is, of course, a force in South Lebanon that has made sure that a "security vacuum" doesn't develop. It is called the IDF. How will they come up with something better than that because UNIFIL or a UNIFIL under a new name won't be that. x.com/ariel_oseran/s…

This makes perfect sense from the Houthi perspective: "Divide and conquer." What they don't want is for their adversaries - Saudi Arabia, USA, Israel - to work together against them right now. They want to pocket their current winnings, until next time. x.com/HibaNasr/statu…

"Fearing he would antagonize Iran and spoil a useful relationship, Turkish President Erdoğan has squandered his chance to consolidate a bloc. In keeping Tehran’s favor, he left an opening for the very adversary he signed the treaty to hedge against to step into the gap."

That the Bible was "rewritten" (or distorted " تحريف") is a basic tenet of anti-Christian and anti-Jewish Islamic polemics going back centuries. Zomlot doesn't mention that. Of course, scholars like Christoph Luxenberg would say the same thing is true of the Qur'an. x.com/MEMRIReports/s…

Compare the reactions to these two incidents: Israel hitting a mosque in Gaza. Iran, via proxies, targeting Mecca itself!
