- Humans are complex creatures, both physically and psychologically
- God mentions knowledge as the second most precious blessing, however he also emphasizes our rebellious nature in Sura 96
- Our challenge is to control and channel that rebellious nature
- Looking at the example of the drama that unfolded at Capitol Hill in Washington DC, following the incitement from US President Donald Trump
- Ignorance or poverty were not the causes for this destruction and disturbance of the final verification of the presidential election which found Biden as the winner
- Rather it was ego, and greed for power which pushed the President to urge his followers to riot
- The way this rebellious crowd was able to gain access to the Capitol without much resistance shows the double standard when you compare with the firm attitude of the police against rallies for black lives matters.
- In the Muslim world, we see some religious leaders who exploit the sentiments of their followers and create a hype against Shi‘a minorities in Pakistan in the name of honouring the ṣaḥābah
- In Baluchistan province, 11 Shi‘a coal miners from the Hazara tribe were kidnapped from their campsite, taken to the mountains with their hands tied at their backs and then brutally killed
- The inaction by the authorities is a deafening statement
- Shi‘as have challenged the Salafi extremists to come and talk about the differences by using books and not bullets

Very relevant since UK is going to shut down PressTV on SKY! The Broadcasting Board of Governors is a bipartisan board comprised of nine members. Eight are appointed by the U.S. President and confirmed by the Senate; the ninth is the Secretary of State who serves ex officio Hilary Clinton
We can't allow ourselves to be out-communicated by our enemies said Walter Isaacson, chairman of the Broadcasting Board of Governors. "You've got Russia Today, Iran's Press TV Venezuela's TeleSUR, and of course, China is launching an international broadcasting 24-hour news channel with correspondents around the world [and has] reportedly set aside $6 10 billion dollars -- we have to go to Capitol Hill with that number to expand their overseas media operations

Turkish police arrest youths for insulting israel - 19 Dec 2011 - English

What started as a regular basketball game between two teams, ended in the arrest of 30 Turkish youth. Police in the Turkish city of Kayseri stepped in after the crowd, waving Palestinian flags, began protesting against the Israeli team.
According to the indictment, they have been accused of "insulting Israel".
This is not the first time Israeli players have been forced off the court. In 2009, some 3000 Turkish fans disrupted a game in the capitol Ankara.
Soma analysts say these events shine a light on the growing rift between the long-time regional allies, who share trade, military and strategic ties.
Tensions between Turkey and Israel were at one time, reserved only for the political leaders. However that is now being seen on the streets. This is especially true since the deadly raid on the Gaza aid ship back in May of last year that saw 9 Turkish activists' killed.
Israel refuses to apologize to Turkey for the deaths saying their troops acted in self defense.
According to Hayrettin Turan, the editor of the foreign desk at Turkiye Newspaper, relations between the two countries really soured with the Israeli invasion of the Gaza strip in December 2008.
While Turkey is a predominantly Muslim country, it is a secular one, leading some to believe it will make a good role model for new governments in the Middle East.
Turkey also maintains strong ties with Iran and with that growing influence across the region. The dilemma now rests with Israel and how long they feel their policies will keep them afloat.

US President Barack Obama has repeated his warning that any new sanctions against Iran would derail the talks to resolve the issue over the country\\\'s nuclear program. But his remarks appear to be falling on deaf ears on Capitol Hill. Recently the Senate began moves to expedite a vote on a bill that would impose new anti-Iran sanctions. This has created concerns that a the nuclear deal that Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany sealed last month is already at risk.

US President Barack Obama has renewed his presidential campaign vow to shut the notorious military jail at Guantanamo Bay.
Obama said the U-S Congress should first lift the remaining restrictions on prisoners\' transfers. However, he stopped short of offering any proposal on how to close the jail, with its remaining one-hundred 55 inmates. Obama made the remarks during his State of the Union address at the U-S Capitol Hill. He also touched on America\'s foreign policy, promising to declare an end to the 12-year war in Afghanistan at the end of 20-14. On a different note, he spoke of Iran\'s nuclear energy program, and vowed to veto any new sanctions bill against Tehran. Obama urged the congress to give diplomacy a chance to succeed.
