I Guds den Nåderikes den Barmhärtiges Namn
I Hans Namn som försåg hjärna och hjärta med logik
Mokhtar Thaqafi, även kallad Abu Ishaq, son till Abu Ubayd Thaqafi; hans far ökänd som en av erövrarna av det oövervinneliga persiska riket och han själv beryktad och respekterad utav egen bedrift för sitt mod, medvetenhet och politiska skarpsinne och dessutom högaktad bland så väl araber som iranier som inte sällan var oense sinsemellan.
Lät hjärnans logik få övertaget under Imam Hassans(A) tid och höll sig i utkanterna, bort från den starkt politiskt manipulerade arenan. I efterhand, och efter Imam Hassans(A) martyrskap, fastän läget tett sig som han själv beräknat, insåg han sitt misstag av att inte ha lyssnat till hjärtats logik och försökte återgälda genom att stå Imam Hossein(A) till tjänst; men nu var det inte minst ödet som kom emellan och hade annat i förvar för honom.
Det är en svårfångad mystiskt och svårbegriplig känsla som inte kan hjälpas att kännas rätt över denna personlighet. En känsla som må vara svårt att lägga fingret på och än mer svårtolkad men som desto mer fångar in och lämnar intryck på ett djupare plan.
Hjärnans logik, som är bunden till att begripa först när alla pusselbitar är synligt på plats, har svårt att greppa den sanning som ändå känns av och att enbart försöka begripa det på den nivån till att börja med kommer vara en ansträngning med föga resultat; för att ha en chans att förstå Mokhtar och hans revolution, se med hjärtats logik!
Mokhtarname är en nyproducerad filmserie i vacker tappning, baserad på ett historiskt verklighetstroget, till namnet, känd händelse vars bakgrund och händelseförlopp är mindre känd. Filmserien återger det historiska händelseförloppet baserat på tillförlitliga historieskildringar och för att möjliggöra att en större publik får del av historien, följer varje avsnitt undertextad på svenska.

Court shown fatal US police beating video - 10May12 - All Languages
Two US police officers have been ordered to stand trial in the death of a mentally ill homeless man following a violent arrest last summer....
Two US police officers have been ordered to stand trial in the death of a mentally ill homeless man following a violent arrest last summer.
California's Orange County Superior Court Judge Walter Schwarm made the ruling after a hearing that included surveillance video of the confrontation between the officers and 37-year-old Kelly Thomas in the city of Fullerton.
Officer Manuel Ramos is charged with second-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter. Jay Cicinelli is charged with involuntary manslaughter and assault or battery by a public officer. Both have pleaded not guilty.
The officers confronted Thomas while responding to reports that a homeless man was looking into parked cars at a transit center.
"This is another victory, on another battle," said Thomas' father, Ron. "We're going to start a new one with the trial."
John Barnett, Ramos' attorney, said he would seek another court's review of Schwarm's ruling and did not expect his client would end up facing a jury trial.
"We're disappointed that they were held to answer but we will seek review in an appropriate manner," he told reporters after the ruling. "He believes, and he is innocent."
Orange County District Attorney Tony Rackauckas said during the hearing that Ramos bullied a shirtless Thomas with his menacing remarks and aggressive stance — actions that would have led anyone to fear they were about to get beaten by police.
"Any person, any creature on this earth would have fear at that point," Rackauckas told the court during the preliminary hearing.
"You're going to fight or flee because this is an imminent threat of a serious beating by a police officer who is there with a baton and a gun and other police officers.... This is going to be a very bad deal," the prosecutor said.
Defence attorneys countered that police — who are authorised and trained to use force when necessary — viewed the incident as an encounter with a man who refused to give his name and continued to resist arrest even as multiple officers rushed to assist.
The three-day hearing was marked by repeated showing of clips from surveillance video and audio recordings of the confrontation. The footage includes scenes of officers pummelling and pinning down Thomas as he screams that he can't breathe and moans for his father until he goes silent and is taken away by medics, leaving behind a pool of blood.
Barnett, Ramos' attorney, said during the hearing that the video — which was introduced by the prosecution — shows that his client made a conditional threat during his conversation with Thomas, stating he wanted the man to start listening and following police orders, such as sitting with his legs stretched out and providing his name to officers.
"All that Kelly Thomas had to do was simply comply," Barnett said. "Officer Ramos just lifts him up, he's going to arrest him. ... Not only can he do it, he must do it. He is bound to do it."
"Officer Ramos didn't do anything that should or could kill Kelly Thomas," Barnett said, pointing out that his client is often seen on the video at the man's feet.
Prosecutors have argued that Ramos punched Thomas in the ribs, tackled him and lay on him to hold him down while Cicinelli — who arrived later on the scene — used a Taser four times on Thomas as he hollered in pain and hit him in the face eight times with the Taser.
Thomas lost consciousness and was taken to a hospital. He was taken off life support and died five days later.
The coroner's office found that Thomas died from compression of his chest that made it difficult for him to breathe and deprived his brain of oxygen, and facial injuries stemming from his confrontation with law enforcement.
In court, Schwartz, Cicinelli's attorney, challenged those findings, noting that testimony by a paramedic who treated Thomas at the scene indicates that Thomas was breathing, although with difficulty, during the confrontation.
Schwartz also defended his client's use of the Taser on Thomas, who was still struggling and resisting officers' efforts to handcuff him, and said Cicinelli only swung the Taser at Thomas' hand when the man made an effort to grab the weapon.
"To call that a crime is to effectively handcuff our police officers out in the field from dealing with any combative suspect," Schwartz said.
The hearing in a Santa Ana courtroom was marked by lengthy testimony from medical experts and graphic photos of Thomas' injuries, including multiple bruises and a bloodied eye, while he was lying on the autopsy table.
Attorneys repeatedly played portions of the grainy surveillance video, which was paired with audio from digital recorders worn by some of the officers who were present and which brought some of Thomas' supporters to tears and prompted them to leave the courtroom.
The incident last July prompted an ongoing FBI investigation to determine if Thomas' civil rights were violated, an internal probe by the city, protests by residents and an effort to recall three Fullerton councilmembers that is slated for next month's ballot.
The recall was sparked after angry residents chastised the council members for failing to take significant action regarding the incident.

[15 Aug 2012] Afghanistan war ending in US failure - English
He made the comments one day after an Afghan policeman opened fire on US-led forces in the eastern province of Nangarhar, injuring two soldiers.
Last week, seven US-led soldiers were killed over four days when Afghan security forces opened fired on them in another green-on-blue or insider attack, in which Afghans turn their weapons against their foreign allies.
According to a NATO count, such attacks have killed a total of 37 US-led foreign soldiers this year, up from 35 deaths in 2011.

The United States and its allies entered the war in Afghanistan in October 2001 as part of Washington\'s so-called war on terror. The offensive removed the Taliban from power, but after more than 11 years, the foreign troops have still not been able to establish security in the country. The foreign troops are scheduled to leave Afghanistan by the end of 2014. However, there are still more than 100,000 US-led troops (67,000 US troops and 37,000 coalition forces) in the country.
Press TV\'s The Debate has conducted an interview with Tighe Barry, political activist and member of CODEPINK from Washington.

Mard-e-Maidan Qasem Soleimani | H.I. Ameen Shaheedi | Holy Shrine Imam...
Qasem Soleimani[note 2] (Persian: قاسم سلیمانی, pronounced [ɢɒːˌsem solejˈmɒːniː]; 11 March 1957 – 3 January 2020)...
Qasem Soleimani[note 2] (Persian: قاسم سلیمانی, pronounced [ɢɒːˌsem solejˈmɒːniː]; 11 March 1957 – 3 January 2020) was an Iranian major general in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and, from 1998 until his death in 2020, commander of its Quds Force, a division primarily responsible for extraterritorial military and clandestine operations. In his later years, he was considered by some to be the second most powerful person in Iran behind Ayatollah Ali Khamenei[21][22] and his right-hand man.[23]
Soleimani was assassinated in a targeted U.S. drone strike on 3 January 2020 in Baghdad, which was approved by U.S. President Donald Trump. The strike was strongly condemned by some, including the Iranian government, and a multi-city funeral was held in Iraq and Iran for Soleimani and other casualties. Hours after his burial on 7 January 2020, the Iranian military launched missiles against U.S. bases in Iraq; while no lives were lost in the second attack, the Pentagon reported that 110 U.S. troops were wounded as a result.[24][25]
Soleimani initially worked in construction[26][27] before joining the Revolutionary Guards during the Iranian Revolution in 1979. He assembled and led a company of soldiers when the Iran–Iraq War began in 1980, rising through the ranks to become commander of the 41st Tharallah Division in his 20s.[28] He was later involved in extraterritorial operations, and in the late 1990s became commander of the Quds Force.[29] Following the September 11 attacks, Iranian diplomats under his direction cooperated with the U.S. to fight the Taliban.[2] Soleimani also provided assistance to Hezbollah in Lebanon.[2] In 2012, Soleimani helped bolster the government of Syria and its president, Bashar al-Assad, a key Iranian ally. He ran Iran\'s operations in the Syrian Civil War and helped to plan the Russian military intervention in Syria.[30] Soleimani coordinated Kurdish Peshmerga and Shia militia forces in Iraq, and assisted them during the expansion of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant in 2014.[31][32][33][34]
Soleimani was popular among many Iranians, with many viewing him as a \"selfless hero fighting Iran\'s enemies\",[35][36][37] while others deemed him a \"murderer\".[38][39][40] Soleimani was personally sanctioned by the United Nations and the European Union[41][42][43] and was designated as a terrorist by the United States in 2005
