Media reports say the US is re-visiting its options on Syria to step up pressure on the Arab nation. U-S paper The Wall Street Journal says the move means Washington will again consider military and intelligence options, that were previously presented to the White House but set aside in favor of pursuing international talks. The options reportedly range from expanding efforts to train and equip insurgents, to setting-up no-fly zones over Syria. This comes as the U-S is already funding and supplying arms to the militants fighting to topple the Syrian government. The arms supplies have however failed to make changes on the ground in Syria in favor of the insurgents.

[19 June 2012] Israeli citizen gives up citizenship - English 24 year old Andrey Pshenichnikov is in the French capital with a purpose that goes beyond tourism. This is his passport, the one he wants to renounce. In the past, some Israelis have managed to get their citizenship revoked, but there are no known cases of these Israelis applying for Palestinian residency or a Palestinian passport. Born in Tajikistan before the collapse of the Soviet Union, Andrey Pshenichnikov's parents moved to Russia in search of a better life. And then the family moved to Israel. It took only a little while before he discovered the darker side of his new country. This experience influenced his years as a soldier of the Israeli Defense Forces. Instead, Andrey Pshenichnikov lived and worked at the Deheishe Refugee Camp near Bethlehem, first in hotels and then in construction. He is also open to the idea of settling down in Gaza. Andrey Pshenichnikov says Israeli authorities have black listed him as a terrorist. And he believes, it's easier to give up his citizenship when he's out of Israel. He hopes, his decision will set an example and inspire others to follow. The process to renounce his citizenship could be a lengthy one, one that Andrey Pshenichnikov says he is willing to face.

Some people propose that Islam teaches us to be humble and soft even against the oppressors and tyrants. They say, we should only pray for their guidance and not resist at all! Others say that we need to resist against the oppressors but within a threshold that does not risk our material assets - our lives, our families, our wealth, our professional career, our social status and our lives of comfort. WHAT DOES ISLAM TEACH US? Imam Ruhollah Khomeini (R) highlights that throughout history, whoever rose up for the establishment of justice and Islamic government, faced the repercussions. And we have no complaints! There is and has always been a price that the true believers paid for standing up against the system of oppression. Rest assured, if you are being effective in fighting the system of oppression, sooner or later you will have to pay the price! This is how the divine movement has continued and been kept alive. #MustWatch #RealityCheck #Islam #OurIdeology #IslamicMovement
