How ISLAMIZATION occurs when
there are sufficient MUSLIMS in a country.... #Thread

When culturally diverse societies agree to 'the reasonable'
Muslim demands for their 'religious rights,' they also get the other components under
the table. Here's how it works...👇🏻👇🏻 Image
📍 As long as the Muslim population remains around 1% of any given country they will
be regarded as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to anyone.

(#UnitedStates --1.0%; #Australia --1.5%; #Canada --1.9%; #China --1%-2%; #Italy --1.5%;
#Norway --1.8%)
📍 At 2% and 3% Muslims begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected
groups with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs.

(#Denmark --2%;
#Germany --3.7%; #UnitedKingdom --2.7%; #Spain --4%; #Thailand --4.6%)

🇺🇸🇹🇹🇻🇪⚡️ The U.S. Treasury Department has granted Trinidad and Tobago a license to develop a major gas field located in Venezuelan territorial waters, according to a high-ranking U.S. official.

This marks a relaxation of some sanctions on Venezuela. The license, issued at Trinidad's request & aimed at improving the Caribbean region's energy security, means that the Trinidad can resume business related to the Dragon gas field with the sanctioned Venezuelan PDVSA.

The Venezuelan government will not be allowed to receive any cash payments from this project and all remaining U.S. sanctions will remain in place.

So just to clarify, the US big launched a voluntary carbon market scheme to dissuade Global South countries from developing FF capacities, while quiet launching a bilateral partnership "aimed at sustaining a higher level of liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports to Britain"...?🤔1/n
In fact "the US is set to become the world's biggest LNG exporter in 2022, surpassing Qatar & Australia, and may hold that title for years to come." DYN the U.S. only became an LNG export player fairly recently, expanding v sharply in the past 7 yrs? 2/n

I know this because the U.S. used to be the largest importer of LNG from my own country #TrinidadandTobago. In the mid 2000s the U.S. began developing LNG capacity for domestic use. Imports peaked in 2007, declining every year after that. It then turned attn to export markets 3/n

We’re celebrating #WorldNewsDay! The theme is ‘Journalism Makes a Difference’ & throughout today we'll be highlighting some of our members' stories.

Each one showcases different themes but all demonstrate good journalism & why it's worth promoting + defending #JournalismMatters Image
🇬🇭Firstly, we feature @thegbcghana whose journalism makes a difference when it galvanises citizens to address societal issues.

Most recently, a news piece on the state of neglect at a rural primary school yielded positive results...

#WorldNewsDay22 #JournalismMatters #Ghana
“Travelling across rural Ghana reveals a huge disparity in accessing education for the rural and urban child,” GBC News Coordinator Peggy Ama Donkor explained.

“The aid makes a difference in the lives of the [students] in terms of enrolment and retention.”

Happy 130th Birthday to us!

The TTFNC was founded on July 10th 1891 in order to: “...give pleasure to its members by observation of animal, insect and plant life in Trinidad”.

This thread will revisit some key milestones in our long history! 1/n #130yearsofTTFNC Image
In 1892, the first issue of our peer-reviewed journal was published as an outlet for our members to publish interesting and novel #NaturalHistory observations. It continues to this day as "Living World, the Journal of the TTFNC". ttfnc.org/livingworld/in… 2/n #130yearsofTTFNC Image
The first issue of our journal included J. E. Tanner's breakthrough discovery that #leafcutter #ants (locally known as #bachacs) cultivate fungus & feed it to their larvae, rather than eating the leaves directly as previously thought. 🐜🌿🍄3/n #130yearsofTTFNC ImageImage

[1] Reports indicate that the #Venezuelan Floating Storage/Production Vessel, FSO #nabarima, currently located in the #gulfofparia, has approximately 1.2 million barrels of crude oil onboard & the vessel is in distress.

Why is this of concern to #TrinidadandTobago?
[2] The #gulfofparia is a semi-enclosed body of water located between #Trinidad and #Venezuela. The #marine #environment is a very dynamic system. Any oil that is spilled in the #gulfofparia will likely be transported by the currents and reach the shores of both countries.
[3] Presently, the #gulfofparia supports important #fisheries 🐟🦐 Many #fisherfolk in #Trinidad harvest #fish and #shellfish from the #gulfofparia🛥️ The livelihood of these #fisherfolk are dependent on a healthy marine environment.

Huelga de hambre desde hace 3 días en cárcel de #TrinidadandTobago Los venezolanos arrestados quieren ser repatriados, hicieron su solicitud y la embajada venezolana no responde. Dicen que el Gobierno Trinitario no da respuesta. Denuncian demoras procesales de entre 5, 6 a 7 años ImageImage
Los venezolanos arrestados no tienen comunicación legal con sus familias, dicen que son tratados "como animales, las comidas en mal estado, sirven allí agua una vez a la semana y a los 3 días el agua deja de ser potable, no tienen asistencia médica y la única medicina es panedol" ImageImage
Asegura la denuncia que "ayer murió uno de COVID-19 y hay personas con tuberculosis y tienen miedo de morir allí".
Afirman que "las condiciones de encierro son deplorables y como resultado los venezolanos están protestando mediante una huelga de hambre"

Proud as Punch to have just received invitation to the #Bavarian "New Citizens Reception" #neubürgerempfang in October at the #Residenz #Muenchen from @BayStMI Home Office Minister Joachim Herrmann & with Bavarian President @Markus_Soeder
This was the event held in Nuremberg in the summer for new north Bavarian citizens.
The southern Bavarian reception is held in the wonderful 17th Century Imperial Hall of the 'Residence', the seat of the Dukes then Electors and finally Kings of Bavaria until the monarchy was dissolved in 1918 after they "mislead" the folk into WWI
