Last week, Pope Francis & grand imam of al-Azhar signed a “historic pledge of fraternity”in the #UAE. In light of misogyny they oversee, the patriarchs in robes can kiss & hold hands & pledge love to the “fraternity”: they are dangerous to women & children theguardian.com/world/2019/feb…

- Vatican & al-Azhar prohibit ordination of women
- Priests rape & sexually abuse nuns & children
- Al-Azhar is furious #Tunisia wants to make inheritance equal btwn men & women
- Ruler of #Dubai has forcibly repatriated 2 of his daughters after escape & holds them vs their will

Why are the pledges these men sign presented to us as great achievements to celebrate? For whose benefit arevthose pledges? The rot of misogyny and abuse these men oversee must not be camouflaged by “pledges of fraternity.”

1/ The #Saudi kidnapping of #Khashoggi reminds me of the kidnapping of #Hariri. It is meant to embarrass the other party, this time the gov of #Turkey, and provoke a diplomatic crisis. This is drug Cartel methods. It has no other goal than to assert power over the other.

2/ However, resorting to these methods to assert power in the political and international affairs sphere is always a sign of weakness and a sign of a power in crisis. #SaudiArabia
