In late July 2015, an arson attack on a family home in the Palestinian village of Duma, in the West Bank, resulted in the killing of three members of the Dawabshe family, the youngest of whom, Ali, was only 18 months old.
The firebombing also caused seven-year-old Ahmed Dawabshe, Ali's brother, second and third-degree burns across his body, the scars of which he still bears today.
Ahmed, who now lives with his grandfather, remains in Duma, across the West Bank border from his attackers: members of the Hilltop Youth.
Residing on outposts often neighbouring areas populated heavily by Palestinians (not to be confused with Israeli settlements) the Hilltop Youth are known for their extreme religious nationalism. Mostly made up of young people between the ages of 16 and 25, the group are followers of Kahanism; an ideology based on the teachings of the late Rabbi Meir Kahane.

There is no Hadith about this the facts are facts if you live in KSA the environment is more Islamic than Iran ever will be, in KSA Islam is respected and upheld and something dear in Iran "Islam" doesn't go passed what the Mullahs say on TV look at KSA and Iran, in Iran people literally protest over enforcement of hijab in KSA these issues don't exist and everything there is done to make life for the believers easier such as the Hisbah and so on and this is why when the time comes the people of Saudi Arabia will hold out against the Dajjal and why in Iran with all idiot Shias they will welcome the dajjal.Quote:

There are many flaws in this "anti-Saudi" current and the continuous condemnation of the country, one doesn't have to support the regime to oppose what they oppose or vice versa and support whom they support. No one has claimed the kingdom nor their rulers are perfect and I am sure their forefathers would be disappointed in the direction they are going but there are facts that as a Muslim you cannot ignore such as how they have protected the status of Islam in their country making it something respected and held dear and it is known that among the Saudi people you will find among the most religious and sincere from Saudi Arabia we see many great scholars, people who follow the deen properly and a general sense of joy and support for what Allah has ordained for humanity.Quote:

When most people think of Shariah their first thoughts are backwardness something caveman like but when we see Saudi Arabia we see the opposite we see a modern and beautiful country with a wealthy population that Allah has blessed with natural resources.
As for Saudi foreign policy while many can view it as "Pro-Israel" or "Pro-American" you must ask yourself what does the alternative represent? Pro-Russia and Pro-Shia the Saudis are the only ones to go out of their way to obstruct Iran's evil plans and ambitions and in the world of geopolitics this does include making questionable decisions that outside of circles educated in this matter could come across as wrong, evil or corrupt. Iran and their Neo-Safawi agenda are the single greatest threat to Islam that the history of our religion has ever known, Wallah, I am not exaggerating this, our very Deen is at a point with the Shias that we are facing almost certain destruction and we have witnessed this in Syria and of course with their genocide in Iraq, now that they have enjoyed victory they have set their sights towards Yemen and it is clear they intend to take Jerusalem.
Ask yourself next would the "liberation" of Jerusalem by Iran be worth it? You would be replacing one oppressor with another, and one that is much harsher at that. The Shias do not want to rescue Jerusalem for the sake of Allah or Islam they want it for prestige and to fulfill the narrative that only their Manhaj can protect Islam and that they are Taif al Mansura and the Ansar of Mehdi. In Palestine they have already initiated campaigns of convert people to their vile cult with a group called Harakat ul-Sabireen and they are giving their Dawah in Gaza, in Syria they are converting people from Ahlus Sunnah to the Rafida cult by telling tribesmen that they are related to their Imams such as the case with a vile group called Liwa al-Baqir, in Yemen the Zaydiyyah who are brothers of Ahlus Sunnah have been corrupted and abandoned their school for that of the Majoosi religion and have begun to make Takfeer on the Sahaba and promote shirk and lead people away Allah (SWT).
Wallahi this can never happen to our beloved Jerusalem, what the Jews have done to the Muslims pales in comparison to the Rafida have done and will do if given the chance, at least we can agree that they are not part of our deen and we can agree that they have no affection for Islam and that no sincere Muslim or anyone informed of the conflict would side with them, but with Safawi control we will be more divided now than ever as an Ummah half of us will praise them as heroes and models out of ignorance and naive thought while the rest of us whom are firm in Aqeedah and know better will condemn them and refute them until the final hour Insha'Allah not believing their lies. The situation in Jerusalem today is indeed preferable to whatever Iran may plot for we do not see the Jews doing what the filth in the "Popular" Mobilization Forces or Hezbulshaytan have done to our brothers in Iraq and Syria. Never can we allow the Rafida to do what they did to our blessed Sham to do in Jerusalem or God forbid Mecca or Medina these places belong to the Muslims and are free from their claims and is in better hands to Atheists than it would ever be in the hands of the Rafida no matter how evil they may seem the Rafida will always be the most evil.
Bro, being given wealth is not something indicating that you are beloved by Allah. Allah gives worldy things to test only as it is mentioned Quran. I wonder what position they would be in if there was no oil. The Prophet (aleyhissalam) says "he who sleeps satiated while his neighbour sleeps hungry is not from us". They are fighting with Yemen while Yemenite children are dying out of hunger each day. Is this Islamic? They produce hostile policies towards all their enviroment not only Iran. They isolate Qatar for the sake of money. They just bought billions of dollar weaponry from the US. Wonder what they are planning to do with it. This final MSB guy is just a Zionist and American pupet. He may do anything what his master tell him to. You dont have to be pro Russia or Iran inorder to be anti Zionist or anti American imperialist. I for example am none of these.
Shia is totally a different issue. You should not confuse the wrongness of Shia with the current Saudi and Iranian politics. Bahrain is also Shia and the Saudi is good with them as far I know.
may allah protect all the ummah and guide us
O allah protect our youth from the fitan

UAE collaboration with Israel dates back to 1990s
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and officials from the United Arab Emirates secretly met in Cyprus to discuss the Iran nuclear agreement right before Donald Trump took office as US president, according to a report in The New Yorker.
The Barack Obama administration was not aware of the meeting. US intelligence agencies learned of it as well as of phone calls between senior UAE and Israeli leaders toward the end of Obama’s second term.
This meeting marked a strengthening of the covert relationship between Israel and some Gulf Arab states that is likely to come at the expense of Palestinians. Netanyahu hopes these Arab states will help press Palestinians to accept a peace deal tailor-made to Israel’s demands.
By 2015, according to the report, “Netanyahu no longer cared what Obama thought of him,” and with a new administration approaching, both Netanyahu and crown prince of Abu Dhabi, Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, set their “sights on persuading the new president to create an entirely new dynamic in the Middle East” that would isolate Iran, Adam Entous reported for The New Yorker.
Abu Dhabi is the most politically influential state in the United Arab Emirates.
Before the 2016 US presidential election, Netanyahu met Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton and outlined a plan “calling for the Arab states to take steps toward recognizing Israel, in exchange for Israel improving the lives of the Palestinians.”
Entous added that “Clinton knew that the UAE and Saudi Arabia were already working together behind the scenes with Mossad [Israel’s spying agency] to counter Iranian influence.”
Netanyahu and Israeli ambassador Ron Dermer met candidate Trump, his son-in-law Jared Kushner and his then adviser Steve Bannon at the Trump penthouse in New York on 25 September 2016.
A former Trump adviser told Entous that “the germ of the idea” of a Gulf-Israel alliance against Iran “started in that room.”
Bin Zayed also met Kushner, Bannon and former US national security adviser Michael Flynn on 15 December 2016, months after Netanyahu and Dermer met with Trump, Kushner and Bannon to express the same interests. That meeting was also unknown to the Obama administration and was held at the Four Seasons Hotel instead of at Trump Tower in order to avoid attention.
According to Entous, Bannon later told Emirates ambassador Yousef Al Otaiba that the meeting at the Four Seasons Hotel “was one of the most eye-opening meetings I’ve ever had.”
Ron Dermer and Yousef Al Otaiba had “extraordinary access to the new president’s team,” Entous wrote.
Palestinian “bankruptcy”
For the UAE and for powerful Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the Palestinian issue is a mere nuisance standing in the way of closer ties with Israel in order to confront Iran.
“Israel’s never attacked us,” and “we share a common enemy,” bin Salman reportedly told US officials in more than one meeting, according to Entous.
“We’re going to get the deal done,” bin Salman reportedly told an American visitor to Riyadh in 2017. “I’m going to deliver the Palestinians and he” – Trump – “is going to deliver the Israelis.”
Bin Salman was referring to Trump’s so-called deal of the century between Israel and the Palestinians.
According to Entous, Trump’s ambassador to Israel David Friedman, a former bankruptcy lawyer, has called the planned agreement a “bankruptcy-type deal” for the Palestinians – in other words a liquidation of their rights.
Entous’ article also confirms that some Trump officials are further to the right on the Palestinian issue than even the Israeli government.
When the newly appointed Friedman was being briefed by State Department officials on the humanitarian situation in Gaza, the ambassador reportedly replied, “I just don’t understand. The people who live there are basically Egyptians. Why can’t Egypt take them back?”
Mutual enemy
The meeting between Netanyahu and senior Emirati leaders in Cyprus was one of numerous secret contacts between Emirati and Israel officials that Entous traces back to the 1990s, when bin Zayed wanted to buy fighter aircraft from the US, but feared Israeli objections to the sale.
Bin Zayed “believed that the Gulf states and Israel shared a common enemy: Iran,” and requested that Sandra Charles – a former official in the George H. W. Bush administration who was working for bin Zayed at the time – convey the message about a possible meeting between UAE and Israeli leaders.
As part of Charles’ work in the UAE, her firm provided assistance to Jamal S. Al-Suwaidi, an Emirati academic who was establishing the government-backed Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research in 1994. The think tank was established for academic research but later “became a conduit for contacts with Israel,” Entous wrote.
Charles later arranged a meeting between Al-Suwaidi and Israeli diplomat Jeremy Issacharoff. The meeting was off the record so that the Israelis and the Emiratis could deny it ever happened.
After that meeting, then Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin raised no objections to the sale of the American fighter jets to the UAE.
That built a “sense of trust” between Israel and the UAE, former US officials told Entous. Those former officials considered it significant that bin Zayed “did not care” when he learned the fighter jets contained Israeli technology.
With bin Zayed’s blessing, “Suwaidi started bringing delegations of influential American Jews to Abu Dhabi to meet with Emirati officials.”
Notably, the same strategy that the Emirates used to gain Israeli approval in the 1990s is being implemented by Qatar today.
The Qatari government has been inviting right-wing Americans and key leaders of Israel’s Washington lobby for all-expenses-paid junkets to Doha.
They include the hawkish pro-Israel lawyer Alan Dershowitz and the head of the Zionist Organization of America Morton Klein.
Influential anti-Palestinian propagandists have returned to the US to sing Qatar’s praises.
Theft of Jerusalem
Entous also casts light on how American casino billionaire Sheldon Adelson was “critical” in securing Republican support for Trump.
Adelson poured tens of millions of dollars into Trump’s campaign after he received a commitment that Trump would move the US embassy to Jerusalem if elected.
“Adelson wanted to take the issue of dividing the capital ‘off the table,’ a Trump confidant said, ‘That was the sole issue for him. It was his dream.’”
Meanwhile, Sheikh Kamal al-Khatib, deputy head of the Northern Branch of the Islamic Movement in Israel, warned in a Facebook post that a Palestinian businessman affiliated with Palestinian strongman Muhammad Dahlan is planning to buy real estate in Jerusalem on behalf of an Emirati businessman affiliated with bin Zayed.
Al-Khatib warned that these properties are likely to end up in Israel’s hands.
“This businessman offered a Jerusalem resident $5 million to buy a house adjacent to al-Aqsa mosque. When the offer was rejected, the businessman offered the owner $20 million for the same house,” al-Khatib wrote in his Facebook post. Al-Khatib urged Jerusalem residents not to sell their property no matter how much they are offered.
In an interview with Al Jazeera, al-Khatib claimed that during Israel’s 2014 assault on the Gaza Strip, property purchased by Emirati citizens in the Jerusalem neighborhoods of Ein al-Hilweh and Silwan ended up under the control of Israeli settlers.
Dahlan denied the accusations. In a Facebook post, he threatened to sue al-Khatib and Al Jazeera “all over the world” for their lies, adding that those who manage and fund Al Jazeera “spend the happiest times in the hotels of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem with the direct patronage and permission of Qatar’s ruler.”
Dahlan was a central figure in the US-backed plot funded by the United Arab Emirates to arm and train militias to overthrow Hamas after the Islamist resistance group soundly defeated Dahlan’s Fatah faction in Palestinian Authority elections in January 2006.
President George W. Bush, whose administration directly approved the scheme, referred to Dahlan as “our guy.” Plans went awry, however, when Hamas turned the tables on the plotters, expelling Dahlan and his militias from Gaza in June 2007.
Dahlan escaped to the occupied West Bank city of Ramallah. But he quickly fell out with PA leader and Fatah boss Mahmoud Abbas, and, facing charges of corruption and accusations of another coup plot, fled in 2010 to the United Arab Emirates.

Zionism, Islam and the West constitutes a broad overview of the last century and insightfully questions several popular shibboleths. Over 12 chapters Kerry Bolton rattles quite a few of the widely held misconceptions about Islam and Muslims, and the events of the past few decades in particular.
This is a deep and thought-provoking piece of scholarship and Bolton demonstrates a shrewd command of documentary material in order to elucidate the prevailing stereotypes, pejorative views and garrulous hyperbole about Islam, and convincingly exposes a deep comprehension of the complexity of 20th century politics.
Preface
In International realtions the clash of civilizations thesis seems to have replaced the ideological battle of the Cold War period. This thesis was orginally proposed in 1990. In 1993 an article appeared in the Foreign Affairs magazine which was developed as a book in 1996 to guide US foriegn policy makers advocating the hypothesis. then 9/11 attacks occured to support the hypothesis. Did the Zionists play any role in these devleopments? It is very diffcult to assert because, as Kerry Bolton rightly suggested, Zionists oten operate to push sundry agendas in the name of attractive thoughts. Sometimes these ideals include noble dreams such as democracy, human rights etc. With the rise of Muslim extremeism throughout the world it is very important that Muslims read this valuable work.
Some Zionist-Orientalits scholars, who are well versed in Muslim histroy and culture, know very well the weak points of 14 centuries of Muslim history. They are cabale of pressing the right button at a right time to provoke a strong reaction among Muslims. This is why Muslims must know Zionism and Orientalism very well and Kerry Bolton has made a valuable contribution in exposing Zionism. I strongly recommend this book to every student of contemporay Muslim cultural and politcal history.

A new Senate bill would allow state and local governments to boycott any U.S. companies which are engaged in a boycott against Israel. We speak with Congressmember Rashida Tlaib, who has come out out against the bill, tweeting, “They forgot what country they represent. This is the U.S. where boycotting is a right & part of our historical fight for freedom & equality. Maybe a refresher on our U.S. Constitution is in order, then get back to opening up our government instead of taking our rights away.”

ANTI-BDS BILL DEFEATED
Some may be happy to learn that the US Senate didn’t pass the ‘anti BDS bill’ on Tuesday. But a look at the vote reveals that America’s politicians are fully removed from the American ethos of freedom. Fifty six mostly Republican Senators, just 4 shy of the 60 needed to pass the bill, voted to enact a law contrary to the Constitutional right to Freedom of Speech as granted by the 1st amendment. The defeated bill included a provision to allow states and local governments to punish Americans who boycott Israel. This was an astonishing and nearly successful attempt to legislate crude government interference with freedom of speech in its most protected form: political speech. The fact that such a bill made it to the floor of the Senate confirms that the American political establishment is an occupied zone committed to silencing opposition to Israel and its lobby.
Democrats did not necessarily oppose the anti BDS bill on first amendment grounds. Instead, most Senate Democrats have vowed to block all legislation in the Senate until it votes to end the government shutdown. Trump has closed the Federal government until Congress accedes to his demand for $5.7 billion to begin to erect an Israeli style ghetto wall on the Mexican border.
If the president is so desperate to defend America’s southern border, perhaps he should consider not giving military aid to Israel, even if just for two years. This would free $8 billion and give Trump enough cash to build his wall and then maybe he could invest the remaining $2.3 billion where it’s really needed: to make America great again.

Israel, UK and Brexit
https://static1.squarespace.com/stat...pg?format=750w
The following is a translation of the last segment of an article in Ynet yesterday on Brexit. The article explains that: the Jewish State has located itself as post Brexit Britain’s gateway to the world: “Once out of the EU, Britain will have to sign separate trade agreements with each state, and Israel will be the first.” And that: “Israel has become Britain’s strategic ally.” And, of course, “the British government totally disregard the boycott campaign against Israel. On a political level, they boycotted the boycott.”
A few years ago we learned that back in 1982 Oded Yinon devised an Israeli ‘plan for the Middle East.’ The following Ynet’s segment provides us with a glimpse into the current ‘Israel’s plan for Britain.’
If you have been puzzled by the insane institutional campaign against Corbyn (BOD, Jewish Chronicle, CAA, etc.) the Ynet article raises the possibility that the campaign has not actually been about ‘antisemitism.’ It is more likely about shekles: Corbyn in Number Ten could easily interfere with ‘Israel’s plans for Britain.’ The Ynet article may also help Brits to understand the bipartisan forces that operate intensively to push Britain to break away from the EU. For some reason some of the staunch Israel supporters within the Government and in the Parliament are also pushing hard for Brexit. Ask yourself, do they do it for Britain, Brits and British national interests or are they, once again, serving the interests of that dark and oppressive foreign state.
The Brexit Hurricane
https://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,73...456081,00.html
“…It turns out that on some fronts the British began to prepare in advance. When it decided to withdraw from the European Union, Britain was even more enthusiastic about reaching agreements to sign bilateral trade agreements, this time not through the EU, but with countries around the world. The Brits saw the signing of these trade agreements as evidence of Britain's steadfastness. Time and time again, British leaders, headed by Teresa May, said that "Britain can maximise its business and commercial potential beyond the EU as well." Israel was one of the first stations in that campaign. Once out of the EU, Britain will have to sign such agreements with each state, and Israel will be the first.
In recent years, Israel has become Britain’s strategic ally. Innovation, technological, intelligence and cyber capabilities have made Israel one of the most popular potential partners in Britain. The volume of trade between the two countries rose to a record $ 11 billion last year, of which $ 5 billion was Israeli exports to Britain, and the rest was British imports to Israel. After the United States, Britain is the largest exporter to Israel, and trade relations span a wide range of fields - energy, pharmaceuticals, food and technology - and the British government's total disregard of the boycott organizations against Israel. On the political level, they boycotted the boycott.
In the past year, teams of British and Israeli economic ministries have gathered to discuss bilateral trade agreements. They had to draft new agreements, since the current trade agreements between the two countries were within the framework of the European Union. Ohad Cohen, head of the Foreign Trade Department in the Ministry of Economics, who was in charge of the talks on the Israeli side, said that the British had entered talks with a simple task: to continue without unnecessary shocks, to repeat most of the clauses in the agreement that Israel signed with the EU in 1995.
"They came and said, 'Whatever was, will be,'" Cohen said. "In other words, they wanted Israel to continue to trade with Britain on the same terms, with full customs exemptions, and to make very small changes to existing agreements, especially in quantities. Britain has named Israel as one of the first countries with which it wants to sign a bilateral agreement, and it is important for the British government to ensure that the commercial ties between the two countries are not harmed."
According to Cohen, the negotiations were oblivious to the many changes that have stirred the British political system in the past year. The British did not arrive with any panic for the negotiations with Israel, not even when ministers resigned one by one and Theresa May's government was crushed under the wheels of Brexit. "The only difference is that they were required to set up a unit that deals with trade agreements, which they did not have before, because before everything went through the EU institutions in Brussels," says Cohen.
Thus, in the coming month a trade agreement between the two countries is supposed to be signed. After Israel, Britain expects to sign trade agreements with some 70 other countries, including its closest ally, the US. The agreement with the Americans is very important, because for a Brexit government this is a prestigious card and a proof that Britain can stand on its feet even outside the European Union…”
