In the Middle East, virtually every political camp can - and does - depict the opposite camp as Zionist spies. twitter.com/shadihamid/sta…

"China has lied to the international community when it said these are not concentration camps...and that they are teaching Muslims skills and trades," she said. "That's not true at all because I saw it with my own eyes." cnn.it/2Hbq9sn @AkyolinEnglish @mehdirhasan @ulil

The Venezuelan people are suffering. But, U.S. military intervention will merely extend and deepen the tragedy. j.mp/2VY16Bn #CatoFP pic.twitter.com/uE8V2tnfzj

There are many striking paralllels between the Bible and the Qur'an, and also some remarkable nuances.
Here is one from one of the best comparative scriptural scholars: twitter.com/GabrielSaidR/s…

She’s one of the lucky ones. #Pakistan needs to rid itself of its blasphemy laws—they are archaic, discriminatory & a tool of coercion. But no leader wants to tackle the blasphemy legal structure after #SalmanTaseer

Malaysia too. 2 days ago, a non muslim chinese restaurant owner facing 6 months jail time after he was found allowing manual labours eating in his premise. He was charged for not respecting ramadhan. How to respect #ramadhan an oppressive season?

In some dictatorships in the world such as #SaudiArabia, not-fasting in Ramadan is a crime for Muslims.
In other dictatorships such as #China, fasting in Ramadan is a crime for Muslims. (see news)
Why Muslims can’t be just left alone with their God?

Happy to hear that #AsiaBibi safely left Pakistan and has arrived at Canada.
It will just remain as a shame on us, Muslims, that an innocent Christian women suffered so much merely out of bigotry and barely saved her life from the zealots among us. cnn.com/2019/05/08/asi…

I am excited to share my TED talk. I delivered this a few hours after learning my baby daughter, Nusayba, was diagnosed with cancer. Needless to say it was a challenging week. My wife said stay and do the talk for our daughter. I hope I made her proud. ted.com/talks/wajahat_…

“I’m very much in favor of reinterpreting these laws,” said @AkyolinEnglish. “Conservatives may resist those reinterpretations. It’s their right to do so, but they should then preserve it for themselves but not force other Muslims to abide by their understanding.” twitter.com/csmonitor/stat…

The state of #freedom in #Turkey under AKP/Erdogan. (Graphic made by @iamserdar based on @freedomhouse ratings)
It shows a very good start (which had made people like me enthusiastic) followed by a mild decline, then a terrible decline. pic.twitter.com/ZE0FCRzyAB

Thoughtful consideration of the new face-cover ban in #SriLanka by Andrew D. Graham of @1stLiberty on @ActonInstitute site.
I am typically against the "burqa ban," but a clear danger of terrorism may at least temporarily justify need for face recognition:

Great photo in @nytopinion of the supporters of @ekrem_imamoglu, the opposition candidate whose legitimate mayorship of Istanbul is taken away.
They are not your typical "secular elite."

"Politicians like Mr. Erdogan are distinguished by their claim that only they truly represent the people. [So] they can lose at the polls only when elections have been rigged by liberal elites."
