𝗙𝗟𝗔𝗦𝗛𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞: 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗕 𝗪𝗢𝗠𝗔𝗡 𝗪𝗛𝗢 𝗦𝗔𝗜𝗗 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗡𝗢𝗕𝗢𝗗𝗬 𝗪𝗔𝗦 𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗢𝗪𝗘𝗗 𝗧𝗢 𝗦𝗔𝗬 — 𝗢𝗡 𝗔𝗟 𝗝𝗔𝗭𝗘𝗘𝗥𝗔. In 2006, a Syrian-American psychiatrist named Wafa Sultan sat down on Al Jazeera and said something that sent a shockwave through the Arab world. Not a Western conservative. Not an Israeli spokesman. An Arab woman, raised Muslim, speaking in Arabic, on the most-watched Arabic television network on earth. She opened with a simple principle: 𝘉𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘷𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴, 𝘢𝘴 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘦. Believe what you want. But other people's beliefs are not your concern. Then she drew the contrast that made this clip travel around the world: The Jews came out of the Holocaust and forced the world to respect them — 𝗻𝗼𝘁 with terror, not with crying and yelling, but with work and knowledge. Fifteen million people scattered across the globe, producing the greatest scientific discoveries of the 19th and 20th centuries. United. Effective. Earned. Then the challenge, delivered directly: 𝘞𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘢 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘑𝘦𝘸 𝘣𝘭𝘰𝘸 𝘩𝘪𝘮𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘶𝘱 𝘪𝘯 𝘢 𝘎𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘶𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘵. 𝘞𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘢 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘑𝘦𝘸 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘺 𝘢 𝘤𝘩𝘶𝘳𝘤𝘩. 𝘞𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘢 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘑𝘦𝘸 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘣𝘺 𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦. Then the Buddha statues — the Taliban had just blown up the ancient Bamiyan Buddhas in Afghanistan. She noted: not a single Buddhist burned a mosque, k!lled a Muslim, or destroyed an embassy in response. Not one. Her conclusion was not an attack on a faith. It was a demand for accountability from a civilization: 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘭𝘪𝘮𝘴 𝘮𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢𝘴𝘬 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘥𝘰 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘩𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥, 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮. The host sat there with nothing to say. Wafa Sultan paid a price for that appearance. D∗ath threats. Exile. The full machinery of religious fury directed at a woman who had the audacity to hold a mirror up to her own civilization. She looked anyway. This clip is almost twenty years old. Watch it and ask yourself how much of what she said has changed — and how much of it explains everything happening right now, as a regime that spent 47 years exporting exactly that violence finally faces the consequences.

@elonmusknews30 Hi. Real person. Retired federal employee. Cheers, Elon!

@RightScopee B. Bang, zoom, to the moon! 🚀 Seeing a Starship launch would be tremendous!

@Mappy6984 I ate cold spinach from a can as a kid. Loved it. It was good enough for Popeye so it was good enough for me.

@emilysketcher I have met dozens of people with Down's Syndrome. They are wonderful individuals. Parents have told me they are the most loving and helpful children in their family. God bless them all.

@RightScopee A. Dump the WHO. And while you're at it, dissolve the UN.

There’s a bill going through the House to ban Sharia Law in the USA. That should be co-sponsored by every Republican immediately and passed through the House. That archaic system of oppression has no place in our land.

@MrPitbull07 President Trump should place medals on both of them in a big public ceremony!

@cemburuya @delvieero Is this a joke? I'd explode if I ate all that in one sitting!

@HoodedClaw1974 yes there will be trouble why would we want to be overrun with muslems this is not a muslem country and we can keep it that way if we all stand up

Just another reminder how wrong it is that politicians are ok with handing out OUR money to those that aren’t entitled to it!! A woman dies at age 65 before collecting one benefit check. She and her employer paid into the system for almost 50 years and she collected NOTHING. Keep in mind all the working people that die every year who were paying into the system and got nothing. And these governmental morons mismanaged the money and stole from the system, so that it's now going broke. BEAUTIFUL! And they have the audacity to call today's seniors "vultures" in an attempt to cover their ineptitude. DISGRACEFUL! The real reason for renaming our Social Security payments is so the government can claim that all those social security recipients are receiving entitlements thus putting them in the same category as welfare, and food stamp recipients. THIS IS WORTH THE FEW MINUTES IT TAKES TO READ AND DIGEST! F.Y.I. By changing the name of SS contributions, it gives them a means to refute this program in the future. It's free money for the government to spend under this guise. The Social Security check is now (or soon will be) referred to as a Federal Benefit Payment ? I'll be part of the one percent to forward this. I am forwarding it because it touches a nerve in me, and I hope it will in you. Please keep passing it on until everyone in our country has read it. The government is now referring to our Social Security checks as a "Federal Benefit Payment." This is NOT a benefit. It is OUR money , paid out of our earned income! Not only did we all contribute to Social Security but our employers did too ! It totaled 15% of our income before taxes.(This should be enough for you to forward this message, If not read on.) If you averaged $30K per year over your working life, that's close to $180,000 invested in Social Security. If you calculate the future value of your monthly investment in social security ($375/month, including both you and your employers contributions) at a meager 1% interest rate compounded monthly, after 40 years of working you'd have more than $1.3+ million dollars saved. This is your personal investment. Upon retirement, if you took out only 3% per year, you'd receive $39,318 per year, or $3,277 per month. That's almost three times more than today's average Social Security benefit of $1,230 per month, according to the Social Security Administration. (Google it – it's a fact). And your retirement fund would last more than 33 years (until you're 98 if you retire at age 65)! I can only imagine how much better most average-income people could live in retirement if our government had just invested our money in low-risk interest-earning accounts. Instead, the folks in Washington pulled off a bigger Ponzi scheme than Bernie Madoff ever did (or Lyndon Johnson). They took our money and used it elsewhere. They "forgot"(oh yes, they knew) that it was OUR money they were taking. They didn't have a referendum to ask us if we wanted to lend the money to them ... and they didn't pay interest on the debt they assumed. And recently they've told us that the money won't support us for very much longer. (Isn't it funny that they NEVER say this about welfare payments?) But is it our fault they misused our investments? And now, to add insult to injury, they're calling it a benefit, as if we never worked to earn every penny of it. This is stealing! Just because they borrowed the money, doesn't mean that our investments were for charity! Let's take a stand. We have earned our right to Social Security and Medicare. Demand that our legislators bring some sense into our government. Find a way to keep Social Security and Medicare going for the sake of the 92% of our population who need it. Then call it what it is: Our Earned Retirement Income . 90% of people won't forward this.

@RandPaul Do it!

@IAFsite Good work! Stand strong Israel!

@DrLoupis Amen!
