✧ Al-Mustaʿlī biʾllāh ✧
Al-Mustaʿlī biʾllāh (15/16 September 1074 – 1101) was the ninth Fatimid caliph and the nineteenth imam of Musta'li Ismailism. He became caliph through the machinations of his brother-in-law al-Afdal Shahanshah. In response, his oldest brother, Nizar, revolted in Alexandria; his defeat and execution split the ...

The "link" is that they are ideological and factual enemies in #Palestine and uninvolved in the global arena (since #Hamas is a national movement seeking to liberate #Palestine and has no ambition to conquer or control anything beyond that, let alone build a global "#caliphate"). If there has ever been "tolerance" of #ISIL related groups by Hamas it was out of sheer necessity in order to survive the blockade/siege.
We don't engage with #hasbarists, so farewell.

Today is the 10th anniversary of IS’ “ #caliphate ” declaration.

"Sometimes it experiences setbacks and it's very quiet and then it surges again. So I think we ignore #IS at our own peril - and if we look at the example of its predecessor, the #IslamicState of Iraq with the US’ surge in 2007 - by 2010 It was left for dead. And then 2013 it had staged a number of prison breaks in Iraq that replenished Its ranks then a year later went on to declare a #Caliphate . "

"a lot of these messaging we see attempts to project #IS de facto authority. We have seen images of preaching and religious outreach, we have seen sharia law being carried out and so the aim of all of this is to draw some kind of continuity between the heyday of the #caliphate and now, which is a way to play to IS global audience but also to encourage recruits on the ground"

"we've seen pictures in the #Sahel of huge numbers of fighters often on motorcycles parading across large open plains in daylight and it is all adding to this image of IS being able to act with impunity. Out of the reach of the law.
In #Syria #IS attacks have increased from an average of 10 per month last year to an average of 30 attacks p.m. for IS Syria is very significant, not only as the birthplace of the #caliphate along wIraq but also the camps and the prisons that hold IS fighters" -
"On the 10th of June 2014 #IS captured #Mosul in Northern #Iraq and went on to swiftly capture other #Sunni #Iraqi areas. it then linked them up to areas it had already taken control of in #Syria , across the border. On the 29th of June the group declared itself a a #caliphate , rebranding as the #IslamicState and it named its then leader Abu Bakr al #Baghdadi as caliph. In August that year IS marched to #Yazidi areas near Mosul and killed and enslaved thousands of its residents. "

#CatsOfMastodon and friends of #TheGlobalJigsaw - on this ##Caturday the boss lady is bringing you a Special episode, as we are nearing the 10th anniversary of the declaration of the so called #caliphate of the Islamic State group - #daesh #IS #ISIS #ISIL - talking about its evolution and 're-emergence'. While subbing it, she sometimes had to hide... yet learned a lot:

The Mongol conqueror #Genghis Khan's grandson Hulegu captured #Baghdad and ended the Abbasid #caliphate in the city in 1258.
I just read a text that asserts that around 25 years later, the Muslim vizier Shams al-Din Juvayni was involved in a plot to restore the caliphate, but he was put to death when Hulegu's grandson Arghun overthrew his uncle Teguder Ahmad. This is probably just slander, but it is surprising slander in a #Syriac text written in the late 1310s!
I'm (re)reading the History of Mar Yahballaha and Rabban Sawma.

#Putin is weakened politically and above all militarily

Putin CANNOT support #Ukraine #invasion and an internal conflict at the same time
NOT enough men powerThis is the ideal moment to attack Putin and carve a piece of territories
Putin can't stop it. -
