So here are the five signs you’re probably dealing with a terrorist organization, for inexplicably confused world leaders:

1) it’s backed by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps;

2) its official slogan is, “Death to America, death to Israel, curse the Jews and victory to Islam”;

3) its members dance with AK-47s after commandeering maritime vessels;

4) it supports Hamas, which murdered, raped and kidnapped civilians in Israel on October 7;

5) its members film themselves planting explosives on oil tankers and sinking them as if they’re on holiday.

The announcement that the Houthis have finally been named a terrorist entity is good news, but it shouldn’t have taken this long. Likewise, the years of foot-dragging before Ottawa finally listed the IRGC as a terrorist entity last June made no logical sense…but Liberals or whatever.

Unless, of course, condemning the group that backs and funds other listed terror entities, such as Hamas and Hezbollah, is unpopular among those living in the sitting foreign affairs minister’s riding. I mean, who can tell why these decisions get delayed?

How come they don't hate Christians Buddhists or Hindudes?

When Israel funds Hamas with Qatari cash, what is that called?

If your aunt had balls, would she be your uncle?

Why is a sperm whales throat this big 👌?
But no idea why Christians, Buddhists and Hindudes skate?

That's not odd at all is it? What delineates the hate? Cant be spaghetti monsters or boogeyman can it? Does anybody know or just flail for the sake of flaing?

Ok, I thought you were just being facetiously redundant, but I’ll take a stab at it. The Christians, Buddhists, & Hindudes didn’t establish their own homeland in the Middle East that Islam claims for itself?

Perhaps this makes Israel & Zionists (code word for Jews) #1. Once they’re gone, then the focus will be on other lands and the people that inhabit them, that happen to have once (even briefly) been controlled by Muslims….like India or Spain. Am I close? Warm? This would include Christians, buddhists, & Hindudes. They are just currently lower on the priority list due to geographical proximity…more fringe/edge/crust instead of middle of the pie.

Arab states, which drove out their Jewish citizens, also refused to permanently settle Palestinian refugees, perpetuating a narrative of victimhood. Meanwhile, Jewish refugees quietly rebuilt their lives, receiving little international recognition or compensation for their losses. Accepting Palestinian refugees goes against Muslim expansionism. It’s bad for business.

Its 2024.

There are more Muzzies in Indonesia alone than all of the Middle East and Africa.

Do you hate them too? Do they hate Jews? Do they hate Americans? Christians? Buddhists? Hindudes? Botswanans?

I don’t hate anyone, & I’m not religious. I’m giving my opinion based upon the evidence as I’m interpreting it. Am I warm?

If not religious why bother rooting for Zionists? What the benefit and the drive?

Im trying to wrap my head around how secular people are puttin a certain religion on a pedesta or claiming they are of that sect by association.

Why the pedastal and non-religious glorification?

You mean those Jews, in Israel? Those Zionists? I see them as the outnumbered underdogs fighting for their survival in a shitty neighbourhood, so I guess I have empathy on that front.

Maybe because the religion isn’t the motivation. Watching the GoPro & Cell Video from Hamas (& Friends, Islamic Jihad, general Palestinians, etc…) celebrating the carnage on that day, I don’t have much empathy for the other side of this equation. Others can “Yah But” ‘till the cows come home, but those images from that day stuck with me.

I’m still waiting on the remainder of the living hostages, if any, to be released. It’s been 14 months now. Hamas or whomever can’t even tell which ones are dead or alive, & I’m suppose to feel empathy there?

Hamas brought this down on the heads of those they’re using as human shields, who cheered for them, as they drove the corpse of that German girl in the back of that pick-up truck through the crowds of Palestinians as they spit on her. That made an impression I guess.

Uderdogs fighting for survival? Its all about Go'Pro footage and not a bias? If its all about footage and hostages?

Why not focus on some brutual murders, slavery, extreme poverty corrution and child sex slaves closer to home that directly impacts you and those around you?

None of the Hamas/Zionist shit impacts us at all but the savage sadistic bullshit cartells inflict does impact us directly. Right in our neighbourhoods
.
Ciudad Juárez Mexico is a 22hr drive. 6 hours closer than Toronto. Plenty of go pro footage on telegram that makes Hamas/Israel a Christmas pageant.

We’re both here debating in this thread.

You asked. I answered, honestly. Anyway Syrian rebels were closing in on Homs after seizing two other major cities in a lightning offensive that has reignited the civil war after more than a decade and thrown the future of President Bashar al-Assad’s regime into question, with some Arab officials urging him to leave the country. Another Iranian supported regime?

So all based on guilt for something you didnt do and now feel obligated to support based on that guilt even when you know what they are doing is. wrong.

Syrian rebels declared they had ousted President Bashar al-Assad after seizing control of Damascus on Sunday, forcing him to flee and ending his family's decades of autocratic rule after more than 13 years of civil war.

In a seismic moment for the Middle East, the Islamist rebels also dealt a major blow to the influence of Russia and Iran in Syria in the heart of the region -
1733671117588.jpeg- allies who had propped up Assad during critical periods in the war but were distracted by other crises recently.

One “possible” challenge could be a resurgence of Islamic State which imposed a reign of terror in large swathes of Syria and Iraq and directed external operations during its prime.

(Islamic State = IS = ISIS in Syria = Salafi jihadism = enforced extremist interpretation of Islamic law)
Underscoring the lightning changes, Iran's embassy was stormed by Syrian rebels, Iran's English-language Press TV reported.

Iran, whose elite Revolutionary Guards have faced deadly Israeli strikes in Syria, gave a measured response. Its foreign ministry said Syria's fate is the sole responsibility of the Syrian people and should be pursued without foreign imposition or destructive intervention.

Lebanese-based Hezbollah, which provided crucial support to Assad for years, withdrew all of its forces from Syria on Saturday as rebel factions approached Damascus, two Lebanese security sources told Reuters on Sunday.

Assad, who had not spoken in public since the sudden rebel advance a week ago, flew out of Damascus for an unknown destination earlier on Sunday, two senior army officers told Reuters.

His whereabouts now - and those of his wife Asma and their two children - were unknown. The Russian Foreign Ministry said Assad had left office and departed the country after giving orders for a peaceful handover of power.

The Syrian rebel coalition said it was continuing work to complete the transfer of power in the country to a transitional governing body with full executive powers.

"The great Syrian revolution has moved from the stage of struggle to overthrow the Assad regime to the struggle to build a Syria together that befits the sacrifices of its people," it added in a statement.

The collapse of Assad's rule followed a shift in the balance of power in the Middle East after many leaders of Hezbollah, a lynchpin of Assad's battlefield force, were killed by Israel over the past two months.

Russia, a staunch Assad ally, intervened decisively in 2015 to help Assad during Syria's civil war. But it has been tied down by the Ukraine war.
