If you think the “game” of FIFA is football, i’ll have to disappoint you.

Sounds like normal continental weather to me.

These kind of ranges are normal in the North East of Germany if you are outside the heat islands of cities. If by North you mean Scandinavia it might be a bit unusual there because of all the water mellowing out the temperature range, but for central Europe such ranges are to be expected.

A lot of German stuff also goes through Poland…

Could someone explain why this would “destabilize the global security situation”?

Which armed conflict would be sought here? I doubt that Russia would help Armenia to go to war against Azerbaijan again, as Azerbaijan is the lapdog of Erdogan and Netanyahu and Russia needs Turkyie for sanction evasion and Israel to facilitate Russias continued presence in Syria as Israel wants to avoid Turkiye gaining more influence there. So the only two countries where i see these troops as potentially relevant for are Armenia itself and neighboring Georgia. Both are still in the Russian sphere of influence.

I am happy for you. Every time i got COVID despite being vaccinated it completely fucked me up for at least a week and i needed another week to be somewhat okay and another month until i felt okay enough to slowly start with doing sports again.

Well, in the case of Nazi Germany it worked spectacularly well. Many of Germanys most rich people are inheritors to industrial fortunes that got unimaginably rich with selling weapons to the Nazi army and using forced labor from the concentration camps. The families Quandt/Klatten (BMW) and Porsche/Piech (Porsche,VW, Audi…) come to mind directly. The Krupps are also still in the game although they have gambled a lot of money away over the past decades

Netanyahu has been publicly embracing these protests. I think in the current climate nothing is more deligitmizing for a civil and human rights movement than having the genocidal imperialist mass murderer Netanyahu on your side.

The problem is that any protest movement in Iran is probably also under the influence of foreign interests.

At the same time people claiming Tucker Carlson to just be doing whatever Russia tells him falls short on the positions of MAGA as a movement. MAGA doesnt want another endless war in the Middle East. It makes sense for them to challenge the hawkish and zionist American mainstream media that is replaying the Iraq era propaganda to manufacture consent for the US to go to war for Israel.

This doesn’t need an order from Russia. Subsequently it is a logical strategy for Zionist propagandists to emphasize the connections between Carlson and Russia in order to delegitimize the vary notion, that Americans could be tired of having their oligarchy tell them who are the good and the bad guys.

As someone who has to deal with real people at demonstrations regularly, these horrible genocidal sentiments are not just limited to internet trolls unfortunately.

Also as much as they are detached from the general population, all the politicians and Israel lobbyists and MIC lobbyists still are real people too.

China didnt say for Russia to win. They said Russia must not loose.

A stalemate would be best for China

Palestine Action did not injure anyone. The worst that they have caused was property damage.

And yes, now in the UK if you support civil disobedience as a tool of protest against Israels genocide and the complicity of the UK in it, the police will probably charge you as a terrorist or terrorist supporter. Only then in court it can be decided, whether your actions or opinion are directed towards the proscribed as terrorist group or not.

This also has two further ramifications.

First of all, these investigations and arrests are now done by the counter terrorist unit. This means that resources that could be used to prevent and fight actual terrorism will be diluted to crack down on peaceful protestors.

Furthermore this equates groups such as ISIS or Al-Quaida with Palestine Action, subsequently making the charge against such groups less serious, while motivating people with legitimate protest goals to escalate their protests to violence, as they are charged as terrorists either way.

I cannot speak for other religions but for Islam that is completely false.

Intention is crucial to the evaluation of an action. An outwardly good deed with bad intention is worth nothing, and a bad deed done out of good intention will see forgiveness in its punishment.

See for instance: https://islamweb.net/en/article/156996/the-intention-is-the-foundation-of-every-action

A famous hadith (saying by the Prophet, blessings and peace be upon him) goes as follows (translation of the meaning):

The first of men (whose case) will be decided on the Day of Judgment will be a man who died as a martyr. He shall be brought (before the Judgment Seat). Allah will make him recount His blessings (i. e. the blessings which He had bestowed upon him) and he will recount them (and admit having enjoyed them in his life).
(Then) will Allah say: What did you do (to requite these blessings)?
He will say: I fought for Thee until I died as a martyr.
Allah will say: You have told a lie. You fought that you might be called a" brave warrior". And you were called so.
(Then) orders will be passed against him and he will be dragged with his face downward and cast into Hell.

Then will be brought forward a man who acquired knowledge and imparted it (to others) and recited the Qur’an. He will be brought And Allah will make him recount His blessings and he will recount them (and admit having enjoyed them in his lifetime). Then will Allah ask: What did you do (to requite these blessings)?
He will say: I acquired knowledge and disseminated it and recited the Qur’an seeking Thy pleasure. Allah will say: You have told a lie. You acquired knowledge so that you might be called" a scholar," and you recited the Qur’an so that it might be said:" He is a Qari" and such has been said.
Then orders will be passed against him and he shall be dragged with his face downward and cast into the Fire.

Then will be brought a man whom Allah had made abundantly rich and had granted every kind of wealth. He will be brought and Allah will make him recount His blessings and he will recount them and (admit having enjoyed them in his lifetime).
Allah will (then) ask: What have you done (to requite these blessings)?
He will say: I spent money in every cause in which Thou wished that it should be spent.
Allah will say: You are lying. You did (so) that it might be said about (You):" He is a generous fellow" and so it was said.
Then will Allah pass orders and he will be dragged with his face downward and thrown into Hell.

Most organized religions don’t cultivate empathy, especially the ones considered Abrahamic. It probably inhibits it.

This is simply false.

https://theconversation.com/us-muslims-gave-more-to-charity-than-other-americans-in-2020-170689

We found that Muslim Americans gave more to charity, donating an average of $3,200, in 2020, versus $1,905 for other respondents. They also differed from non-Muslims in many ways. For example, nearly 8.5% of their contributions supported civil rights causes, compared with 5.3% of the general public.

All observant Muslim adults with the means to do so are expected to give to charity in adherence to faith-based traditions. One, known as Zakat, is more formal and among the five pillars of Islam that Muslims are expected to adhere to. Another, sadaqah, happens voluntarily.

That made us want to see if religiosity played a role with the charitable patterns of U.S. Muslims. It turns out that Muslims who displayed higher levels of religiosity, such as by praying more often, were also more likely to give to charity than those who prayed less frequently. We found similar trends among non-Muslims.

https://www.civilsociety.co.uk/news/british-muslims-give-four-times-the-average-uk-donor-report-says.html

British Muslims are the most generous group in the UK, giving more than four times as much money to charity each year than the average Brit, according to new research.

The researchers saw this across all income brackets and it rose to its highest amongst those earning between £75,000-£100,000.

Muslims in the UK are also twice as likely as the British average to raise money via community events and via personal challenges such as running marathons, the report says.

In many countries Mosques allow homeless people to sleep in them , wash themselves and pray there obviously.

If he would take the ten commandments serious, we would be in a very different place.

The same applies to most of high ranking US politicians though. Imagine a world in which the US would not be constantly murdering and robbing people.

Iran doesn’t have nukes and their strategy is quite defensive, rather than aggressive. If there is Nukes flying Israel would toss them first and the US would follow in, because they can’t be not throwing bigger bombs than Israel.

I mean in this specific instance they are. Doesn’t justify how they treat their people, but the reason why Iran is getting so much attacks from the US and its allies/client states is because it is currently the only relevant country left in the region, that is not doing the bidding of Israel and the US.

And who decides, which population needs to get out of the shackles?

Because according to Putin, Ukraine is under a Nazi regime. The US is arguably on the fast track to become a fascist regime and hasn’t had much of a good record before. Various European countries are also moving quickly towards authoritarianism…

It is convenient. By claiming unwavering support for Israel you can distract from your own antisemitism and blame it on brown people. This comes in especially useful to ramp up racism against the very same people you blame for your own antisemitism.

Israel plays along in this game, as they profit both from racism against brown people letting them get away with more crimes as well as profiting from cases of antisemitism, as it allows Israel to claim it is needed for Jewish safety.

Well, Germany is now openly seeking relations with the Taliban to organize deportations of Afghani refugees from Germany to the Taliban.

AirBnB and Booking.com facilitate rentals in illegally occupied territory including in buildings whose legitimate owners have been murdered or pushed out at gunpoint.

As such they are quite deeply involved in providing economic gains from ethnic cleansing. It is also quite easy for them to cease such activities as it is fairly straightforward to figure out, which areas still are held by the legitimate Palestinian owners and which have been ethnically cleansed.
