  1. So the mecca pact invited #Iran.

    I've been posting about #Sunni #Shia unification as a possibility

    If this happens, that's the ballgame for western intrusion in #WestAsia

  2. Sultan Abdullah Qutb Shah

    c 1660 #IndianMiniaturePainting from #Golconda #Deccan from the coln. of Mary & Cheney Cowles sold by Christies for £292,100.

    In 1636, #ShahJahan invaded Deccan & forced upon the Sultan the 'Deed of Submission' which included an increase in Tribute & replacement of #Shia with #Suni #Religion.
    This led the local #Artists to incorporate #Mughal styles in their #Paintings as seen in this case.

  3. Syria Justice Archive: For the third consecutive day, demolition continues in the town of Al-Mazraa (pop 1,000) reportedly aimed at displacing its residents, Syrian citizens from the #Shia community, amid silence from the media.

    A local source said that the demolitions are not limited to unauthorized buildings, but also include all homes, even those that are legal and officially licensed

  6. It would be in the interest of GCC countries to quit US support because Israel does not give a damn. They should realign with Iran, remain neutral and call upon all US bases to leave their countries. This hangup over Sunni-Shia' beliefs shuld give way to Muslim unity. #GCC2026 #Iran #Sunnis #Shia

  7. "The conflict will not end when one side defeats the other. It will not end when the right deal is reached or the right pressure applied or the right leader replaced. It will end — if it ends — only when enough people within each of these traditions recover what their own deepest sources have always known: that the God they are killing for is not the God their mystics encountered."

    According to the report on Wednesday, the #military is operating under a plan to demolish predominantly Shia villages in an effort they believe would prevent residents from returning.

    As part of the campaign, troops are assigned designated zones to demolish, with commanders required to record the number of structures destroyed each day.

    “The only mission is to continue the destruction,” one commander told #Haaretz. “There are no other tasks.”

  9. Saudi Opposition Media: The arrest campaign is still targeting the people of Qatif; the number of detainees has exceeded 20 young men, and the process of verifying the names is still ongoing.

    KSA is using the war on Iran as an excuse to crush the domestic resistance against the royal family and the religious apartheid system in the country.

    The Shia minority in the country are now target a wich haunt unlike anything we have seen before.

  10. The warmth displayed between #Iran and #Pakistan in the current meetings will significantly reduce some of the sectarian tensions between #Sunni and #Shia, Inshā’Allāh. It’s a very positive step.

  11. #Trump threatened Iranians with annihilation. I strongly disagree with that rhetoric. 🇮🇷🛡️ Iranians survived Mongol and steppe invasions and have been here for ~3,000 years — one of the oldest civilizations. 🏛️📜 Many are Shia Muslims and revolutionaries; martyrdom is central to their identity. ✨🕯️ They’re resilient and determined — they'd rather die than surrender, like the Vietnamese in their resistance. 💪🌏 #Iranians #PersianHistory #Resilience #Shia #NeverSurrender They wont #Bow

  12. Thoughtful. The insistence of western powers on an eastern Mediterranean colony ruled by Likkud and the right appears to reflect early 20th C imperial fantasies and disrespect for human rights of the people living there, even including Immigrants lured from difficult and discouraging western countries. It’s time to revive the priorities of human rights protections in world diplomacy.
