The Aramaic Wire ܣܘܪܝܐ
HOW ONE PRIEST SINGLEHANDEDLY RESCUED THE WORLD'S LARGEST COLLECTION OF ARAMAIC MANUSCRIPTS FROM THE ISLAMIC STATE. In 2007, threatening letters arrived at the Dominican monastery in Mosul. Each envelope contained a broken cross & a bullet. Father Najeeb Michaeel's name was on a hit list. Instead of leaving, his work began. Every morning before dawn, he dressed in civilian clothes and drove his old car to Mosul, moving the monastery's manuscripts 30km away. Alone, box by box, a multi-month operation. The collection dated back to the 9th century. When ISIS ways days away from taking Mosul in August 2014, he did it again. By an act of God, within weeks of ISIS' descent on Mosul, he moved the ancient documents. Two cars full of manuscripts & 16th-century books. Aramaic manuscripts from the 9th century: Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Yezidi. A millennium of civilization in the Nineveh Plain. They drove east through the night. At a checkpoint, a young girl pointed at the horizon. When they cleared the last checkpoint, Najeeb said: "I think the Virgin Mary had a hand to protect us." When he returned to Mosul after liberation, the monastery had been used as a weapons warehouse. The library was destroyed. The clock tower, donated by the Empress of France in 1876, the first clock in Iraq, was stripped and stolen. A gallows stood where the altar once was. In 2019, the Church made him Archbishop of Mosul. He now oversees 8,000+ digitized manuscripts from 105 collections across Iraq, Turkey, and Iran. He saved our history. Remember his name & pray for his continued work.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn gave the most controversial speech *against* Western Civilization at Harvard in 1978. As a survivor of the Russian Gulags, they expected him to praise the West. Instead, he made a jarring accusation: The West is a dying civilization. If it doesn't change its ways, it is doomed to collapse. In fact, he said this has been the case for 500 years, when the West made a crucial mistake: "How did the West decline from its triumphal march to its present debility? ...the mistake must be at the root, at the very foundation of thought in modern times. I refer to the prevailing Western view of the world which was born in the Renaissance… I refer to humanism — the proclaimed autonomy of man from any higher force above him." Solzhenitsyn said humanism made man autonomous from God, Truth, and objective morality. If all morality is subjective, then man has nothing to live nor die for. Naturally, he loses his courage, embraces materialism, and grows effeminate to modern evils. So, what is the solution? A return to belief in a transcendental morality under God: "If, as claimed by humanism, man were born only to be happy, he would not be born to die. Since his body is doomed to death, his task on earth evidently must be more spiritual… The fulfillment of a permanent, earnest duty so that one’s life journey may become above all an experience of moral growth: to leave life a better human being than one started it." All cultures live, or die, based on their respect of the True, Good, and Beautiful. To save the West, Solzhenitsyn says start with beautifying your soul, for that is both how you live well, and begin to make civilization itself beautiful again.

🚨Tom Homan just delivered a devastating reality check to Pope Leo XIV on immigration. As Border Czar, the lifelong Catholic didn’t hold back: “I’m a lifelong Catholic. I wish they’d STAY OUT of immigration — they don’t know what they’re talking about.” He challenged the Church directly: “Because if they wore my shoes for 40 years, and talked to a 9-year-old girl that got r*ped multiple times, or stood in the back of a tractor trailer with 19 dead aliens at my feet — including a 5-year-old boy that baked to death — if they understood the atrocities that happened on the open border, I think their opinion would change.” Homan added: “Illegal immigration is not a victimless crime… President Trump had the most secure border in the lifetime of this nation. Right now, lives are being saved. He’s saving thousands of lives a year because he has a secure border. Human traffickers are out of business. The cartels are going bankrupt.” This is the unfiltered truth the Vatican needs to hear.

UN GRANDE PAPA PRIVO DI FALSA RETORICA. CI MISE IN GUARDIA DALLA DERIVA ANTIOCCIDENTALISTA. “Esiste un odio di sé dell’Occidente che appare strano e può essere considerato patologico. L’Occidente cerca lodevolmente di aprirsi con comprensione a valori esterni, ma non ama più sé stesso; della sua storia vede oramai soltanto ciò che è deprecabile e distruttivo, mentre non è più in grado di percepire ciò che è grande e puro”. Papa Benedetto XVI

Pope Leo should lay a wreathe for the seven Trappist monks kidnapped and beheaded by Islamists in Algeria in 1996. Remember the monks of Our Lady of the Atlas Abbey of Tibhirin.

Pope Leo XIV places a wreath of flowers and prays for the Algerians who died in the Algerian War of Independence against French Colonial rule at the Maqam Echahid Martyrs’ Monument in Algiers.

🚨 SPOT THE DIFFERENCE? Cardinal Sarah: “Wake up. Islam is a danger. If Christians don’t start caring about our faith, Islam will take over the West. They’ll impose their laws and culture.” Pope Leo: “We should perhaps be a little less fearful of Islam.”

This is absolutely insane Tell this to the 100,000s of English girls who have suffered the trauma of rape gangs Tell this to the Christians and Yazidi girls and women still suffering as sex slaves Tell this to the Christians in Nigeria, Sudan, Ethiopia et all being raped and murdered by Islamists conducting a genocide Tell this to the thousand plus Jews murdered on October 7th Tell this to the Israeli Jews and Arabs subjected to Hamas/Hezbollah terrorists attacks Tell this to the native citizens seeing their cultures swamped and destroyed by criminal invaders Its OK for Pope Leo, he's got 27/7 armed security, but ordinary people are experiencing the brunt of 21st century militant Islamism

Have you ever noticed that we never see Catholic cardinals or the Pope speak out about all the Christian churches being burned down around the world? But yet, Pope Leo runs to showcase a mosque in a country that restricts Christians and other faiths, and coerces conversion to Islam. Not a single statement of concern from Pope Leo or the Cardinals about religious freedom and protections for Christian minorities in certain regions.

Another church set on fire last night, this time in Saint-Romain, Quebec. Invaders are attacking our women, children and every fabric of our societies. All while politicians give them preferential treatment and put laws in place to protect them from even simple criticism.

It’s been 177 days since Lucy Martinez was filmed making Charlie Kirk neck gestures, and she’s STILL employed by Nathan Hale Elementary School, who did everything to bury this story. They want us to forget. I promise you, we haven’t, and we won’t.

Jesús Enrique Rosas - The Body Language Guy
So the Pope met with David Axelrod last week. David Axelrod. Obama's campaign architect. A man who is not Catholic, has never met a pope before, and whose entire career has been engineering political narratives for the American left. And then, by pure coincidence, the Pope immediately started lobbing shots at the Trump administration, and three US Cardinals popped up on 60 Minutes doing the same thing. All organically, I'm sure. I'm a practicing Catholic. I need you to understand that part. But in my opinion, Trump has all the right to lash out at him. Maybe you'll disagree, but in the end, Trump talks like Trump. Water is wet. I'm talking about MY Church being run like a DNC satellite office but with a golden throne. This is the same Vatican that watched governments padlock churches during COVID and said nothing. That let Biden take communion while funding abortion and said nothing. That fired Bishop Strickland for defending actual Church doctrine. That removed Bishop Fernández in Puerto Rico for defending religious exemptions THE CATECHISM ITSELF supports. But somehow Trump is the threat to human dignity. Pope Francis was bad. Leo has turned out to be worse. Francis at least was vague about his politics. Leo went and hired the consulting firm. The man has ignored the slaughter of Christians across Nigeria, the Sahel, India, Syria, Bangladesh, Pakistan. Hundreds of believers murdered, churches burned, pastors kidnapped. His response? Platitudes about dialogue. OF COURSE he won't even name who's doing the killing. But he'll fly across continents to make interfaith gestures the week after his people coordinated a media hit on a sitting US president. The weaponization of belief is obvious. You get the Pope to pick a fight with Trump, and suddenly millions of conservative Catholics have to choose between their faith and their vote.

Bill O’Reilly just put Pope Leo on the spot with the one question no one in the media will ask him. And with it, he completely exposed the Pope’s double standard in the feud with President Trump. O’REILLY: “I could mediate a settlement between the Pope and Donald Trump, I could do it.” “But in such a mediation I would have to ask his holiness very frankly…you had 30,000 people gunned down in Iran just a few weeks ago, we heard nothing from the Vatican on that at all.” “NOTHING!” “You have a terror, a government, close to a nuclear weapon.” “Is it acceptable for the Catholic church to look away from that?” “As you know, I wrote Confronting Evil, and the theme of the book is that these heinous individuals, they gain power by people looking away.” “By people not wanting to pay the price, as you put it, for gasoline or food.” “That’s how they get power.” “How would you think that Pope Leo would answer that question? Very simple question.” “Is the Catholic church okay with the mullahs having a nuclear weapon?” “Your holiness, yes or no?” “I’m a Catholic, I’d like to know the answer.” “The Pope will never address that.” “And that frustrates Donald Trump because the Pope is also an open border guy.”

...could look to move up if one of the top edge rushers (Reese or Bailey) slips out of the Top-3. Titans would still have their pick of one of the best WRs on the board at #9 overall (KC's pick), plus an extra 2nd to work with. Do it, Titans. Compile picks, build out the roster.

t.co/94w2ZhxYlI In Texas, USA, a Muslim Imam openly explains to his followers: - Jihad is obligatory - Deception and infiltration against non-Muslims are permitted - America is evil because it is full of Shirk, Fitna, and Haram He then quotes Quran verses that command Muslims to fight the infidels until there is no more Shirk, until religion is entirely for Allah. This is not “extremism.” This is mainstream Islamic teaching, preached openly in America. They are not coming to integrate. They are coming to conquer — step by step, neighborhood by neighborhood. When will America take this seriously?

Two months ago, the Islamic Republic slaughtered some 40,000 Iranians. They even stormed hospitals to execute the wounded. Yesterday, the UN nominated the Islamic Republic to shape policy on women’s rights, human rights, disarmament, and terrorism.

This is the reality of life as a Muslim girl: Rana Ahmed was disowned by her entire family. Her brother even tried to murder her, ordering a hitman on the dark web. Why? She tried to leave Islam. Dutch teenager Ryan Al Najjar was bound with tape and drowned in a ditch by her own father and brothers. Why? She didn’t want to wear a hijab. 10 year old Sara Sharif was tortured to death by her father and stepmother in a campaign of unimaginable cruelty. Over 70 injuries. Burns from an iron. Scalds from hot water. Fractures to her spine. Bite marks. And more. They even beat her with a cricket bat and metal pole. Why? She was “too Westernised.” British teen Shafilea Ahmed refused to be sent to Pakistan for an arranged marriage at age 17. Her parents beat and suffocated her in front of her siblings. Why? To “restore their family honour.” Rana survived. But Ryan didn’t. Sara didn’t. Shafilea didn’t. How many more little girls will die before the West admits the obvious truth? How many little girls will be tortured, drowned, or beaten to death while those in power turn a blind eye? How many little girls will have their freedom stripped away for the sake of diversity? Radical Islam is the greatest danger facing women and girls today. Rana, Ryan, Sara, and Shafilea are proof.
