Wonderful to see the Pope meet Shia leaders in Iraq today and Sunni leaders in Egypt last year. What is missing though are Sunni Shia meetings: when will there be a summit between Sistani and Al Azhar’s imam? This Sunni Shia infighting is the root of so much global terrorism
The 2 Muslim Sunni countries who can be key to a much needed Sunni Shia reconciliation are Egypt and Jordan. Egypt for ritualistic purposes (Egyptians revere the Muslim saints so important to Shiasm and Jordan because of its Hashemite royal family revered by Shia as well)
Iraq - now slowly emerging from decades of Sunni Shia civil war, will also be key. This is why the Pope’s visit today to Iraq is so important. The Sunni Shia split was a contributing factor to the rise of both ISIS and Hashd.
The recent summits including in Amman between the leaders of Jordan, Egypt and Iraq are part of this reconciliation that continues today with the Pope’s visit

Here’s a prediction on France vs Turkey. The next battle ground will be Lebanon. Turkey is already on the ground in Lebanon but nowhere as much as Iran and France. Increasing unrest in Lebanon today increases likelihood of Turkey going into Lebanon. Before end of 2021.
Turkey will do all it can to effectively recolonise northern Lebanon. What is happening in Lebanon now creates this opening for Turkey.
This is important because so far, Sunni support for Lebanon has mainly been from the Gulf. Turkey wants to change this, and create a Sunni Islamist enclave in the north. This would greatly destabilise the Levant, just like Turkey’s intervention in Syria did.

A sign to the Catholics and Shia that masks are no longer needed?
Not only no masks, but no social distancing whatsoever, they’ve just arrived from overseas and meeting indoors. The Pope in Iraq today Image
The @Pontifex has hundreds of millions of followers around the world including Brazil where tens of thousands are getting infected by coronavirus every day. Baffling to see him appear maskless meeting people indoors in Iraq. Explanation needed #PopeInIraq

In 2019, we successfully campaigned to have Google remove a Muslim Brotherhood “Euro fatwa app”, for anti Semitism and other incitement including giving a “fatwa” allowing Muslims in the British army to disobey orders, etc. Here is the story thetimes.co.uk/article/muslim…
A few months later, Google reinstated the app after the MB-affiliated developed changed the introduction. Things like disobeying army orders remained. It then become in the top 100 downloads in Europe thenationalnews.com/world/europe/r…
British, French, German and Irish officials condemned the app. “The app is a building block in the process of radicalisation," Germany’s federal office for the protection of the constitution, the country's domestic intelligence agency, said”. But app is still widely available

77 k people died of smoking in the U.K. in the same period 65 k people died of Covid. I didn’t see any campaigns to ban smoking, did you? #COVID19
For humans, death by Covid vs death by smoking is the time scale (2 weeks vs 20 years), although smoking will almost certainly kill you whereas Covid almost certainly won’t....it’s all about time and hospital capacity. Any other difference?
Lockdowns aren’t meant to save life- they are meant to save the healthcare system - NHS or whatever. It’s all about optics.

The terrorist attack in Paris today is the most important terrorist attack in Europe since Charlie Hebdo in 2015, perhaps even more important. It is about an Islamist parent who’s incompatibility with French /Western culture led him to murder the teacher of his own child. 1/2
This parent terrorist was prepared to murder. He snapped, but how many more like him have this anger against Western culture and get indoctrinated by Muslim Brotherhood ideology and indoctrinate their kids in it. Those who don’t kill now are preparing to overthrow the state later
Muslim Brotherhood has more mosques in France than any other Islamic group (400-500). Similar figure in the UK. All come with their madrasah teaching Qaradawi ideology - Qaradawi, their spiritual head was banned from Britain in 2008, but his teachings are widespread here

So why did you, @Twitter, the publishing of articles that included hacked info related to me despite numerous legal complaints? My legal team will be in touch again today.
Having had direct personal experience of @twitter doing absolutely nothing in terms removing posts that included hacked emails or WhatsApps & stolen identities, to try to change policy in the middle of a US election now seems like a cover up to @Twitter intervention in politics
*allow the publishing
