To Muslims marking Eid al‑Fitr across the UK and worldwide, wishing you a day filled with peace and happiness. #EidMubarak
🚨 WOW. The Iranian Islamic regime just publicly hanged 19-year-old champion wrestler Saleh Mohammadi as part of the crackdown on protests "His execution was a blatant political m*rder." Iranians who rise up are on the right side. Rest in peace 🙏🏻
“This was a war of choice, there was a peace process under way” Labour’s Wes Streeting says while he has “no doubt” about the “threat” the Iranian regime posed, the government “evidently” thinks the US strikes on Iran are a mistake, and peace talks “needed more time” #bbcqt
Saudi Arabia’s foreign minister warned that the kingdom may respond militarily to Iran, saying ties with Tehran have been completely broken after the recent missile attacks on Riyadh.
Too many are too polite to say this. But mass ritual prayer in public places is an act of domination. The adhan - which declares there is no god but allah and Muhammad is his messenger - is, when called in a public place, a declaration of domination. Perform these rituals in mosques if you wish. But they are not welcome in our public places and shared institutions. And given their explicit repudiation of Christianity they certainly do not belong in our churches and cathedrals. I am not suggesting everybody at Trafalgar Square last night is an Islamist. But the domination of public places is straight from the Islamist playbook. Trafalgar Square belongs to all of us. It is a national memorial to our independence and our salvation. Last night was not like a televised football match or a St Patrick’s Day celebration. It was an act of domination and therefore division. It shouldn’t happen again.
Europe needs to wake up: You’re becoming a safe haven for extremist figures & orgs like the Muslim Brotherhood & others. They operate freely & actively demonize moderate Muslims your true allies. Pay attention before it’s too late!
