Doha links to Muslim Brotherhood. The Saudis want Qatar to end all financial support for the Muslim Brotherhood, which the kingdom has labeled a terrorist organization but Qatar is still doing business with MOUs to work with Doha.

 The Doha Bank has a Toronto branch and were looking to expand Canadian branches. https://t.co/24F4MAAnBh
Brookfield Asset Management and Doha connected with Brookfield Property Partners (BPY). Through a sovereign wealth fund, Doha holds $1.8bn worth of BPY and Qatar can force Brookfield Asset Management to buy them back for $1.8bn over the next 6 years. https://t.co/m3bCvbj4i6
Qatari funds ended up in a billion-dollar rescue by Brookfield Asset Management for a company directly tied to Jared Kushner. https://t.co/Zug7srcsLe
Among the areas of focus identified by US Congressional investigators is Brookfield’s decision to pay nearly a century of rent in advance when it leased 666 Fifth Avenue in 2018, months before the Kushner mortgage fell due. https://t.co/Zug7srcsLe
Bronfmans founded Brookfield. We have a Russian Jewish family who created a company supporting Doha and Qatar Soverignty funds who are linked to the Muslim Brotherhood. 😐 https://t.co/EMmR1X1HlJ
The Muslim Brotherhood aims to exploit instability to place itself at the heart of Algeria’s oil and gas industry and SNC Lavalin's bribes and Eni's corruption were all part of it. https://t.co/N1knPbgF9x
Trace International has a long list of corruption issues SNC Lavalin had been involved with here. https://t.co/oSLnn4T7dZ
Brazilian federal prosecutors filed charges against a German subsidiary of French nuclear company Framatome, SNC Lavalin & Danish tech provider Rovsing Dynamics corruption re: Brazilian state-owned nuclear company Eletronuclear.https://t.co/vsorAyTVUL
“Considering the size and complexity of the criminal organization's actions led by the former president of the state-owned company, we opted to split the case into 5 actions, each relating to a contract,” said the prosecutors of "Operation Car Wash." https://t.co/vsorAyTVUL
Operation Car Wash is absolutely massive with at least eleven other countries were involved, mostly in Latin America, and the Brazilian company Odebrecht was deeply implicated and Canada connects to it via SNC Lavalin and other channels. See Wikipedia: https://t.co/S1Tpa3a87J
U.S. company Westinghouse is owned by Brookfield Business Partners LP, and France's Framatome are suppliers of nuclear technology and were one of three firms trying to get the contract for the Eletronuclear Angra 3 plant. https://t.co/1eUEFJGwhw
According to a database from Open Government, the firm received 142 government contracts with a combined worth of about $25 million between January 2019 and June 2020
https://t.co/5F5b0vLLug
They are getting massive amounts of contracts in both Canada and US , many involving nuclear power. https://t.co/O6MXSMq9W9
Canada is poised to play a central role in the global nuclear weapons business, much as it did during the Second World War. https://t.co/h7DONaWlIf
Just Google SNC Lavalin and nuclear. The amount of international contracts and domestic contracts made in 2020 is absolutely staggering.

Please Review re: Coastal GasLink Pipeline @TaxJusticeNet @FairTaxCanada @GA4TJ @StopCorpAbuse @SEC_Enforcement @anticorruption @UNDPGAIN @OCCRP @ICIJorg @hrw @HRWcanada @UN_Women @UN4Indigenous @WMC_WR @NWAC_CA @NCAI1944 @AFN_Updates @lakotalaw @HonorTheEarth @antonioguterres


53 organizations representing over 2 million people, we call on the Government of Canada to immediately order EDC to align its business with Canada’s climate commitments. Coastal Gaslink Pipeline mentioned.

In Canada the pattern repeated with multiple pipelines. After approvals they flip the ownership of pipes with asset sales to negate contractual obligations re: terms of approval, insurance, liability etc. This happened to TransMountain, Coastal Gas Link, Enbridge Line 10 etc.

My email to the Prime Minister from Feb. 2020. I am still waiting for the answers.


Canada Energy Regulator (CER) is formerly the National Energy Board. I asked for proof of the insurance of Enbridge's pipelines. The CER Chair sent me data based on assets owned in 2016 most of which has been sold off since. The website give in the response held that info.

@ChiefSAugustine You want to know why Germans liked the Indigenous people so much? My family were Habsburgs married with the lines of Membertou. Charles V was the king of Germany. We had trade with Europe since 1550's at least.


Our Mi'kmaw baskets were in Antwerp in use along with hockey sticks and snow shoes. We had voyage along the path of cod because it prevented scurvy. Our dwellings were of Denmark. Our Walnut trees too. The history is with me brother.


This photo is Avalin Gallien, Medard Lanteigne and my dad Adelbert Lanteigne (no hat) Medard was his cousin. Bottom row left to right, Nellie Lanteigne (Medard's sister) Carmen Gallien (Avalin's sister) and Vencia Lanteigne. The clothing handed down generations.


The Lavvu shelter is of the Sami people. The same look as Mi'kmaw shelter. We shared textiles and goods and many things, even spices because we were internationally connected by trade for centuries. We had the whole world in our area because the jet streams & cod.


The Habsburgs are the Royal line of the Holy Roman Empire. The lines run through the mothers. It always did in our kin. Canada targeted First Nations women with blood quantum and with rapes, trafficking with welfare, jails, making us wards with military etc. I lived it.

When people asked to reallocate funds from Police in Hamilton in June 2020, this happened. My view, the issue of resisting changes to police budget is far more systemic than people think. They invested in fighting it. @samnabi @ReallocateW @OfAcb @570NEWS

Stephen Harper invested in prisons. Corruption, collusion and bid rigging involved Richard Bird of Enbridge. He owns Bird Construction Inc. He builds court houses, prisons, opp and RCMP detachments.

Enbridge has been fiscally donating to police for a long time.

Police and fire department as first responders have judicial power to decide when to call the MNR spills action centre when accidents happen. I know this from a spill I witnessed in the Humber River. Police and oil are too close and conflicts exist.

The Ontario Ministry of the Environment’s failure to charge Imperial Oil signals that “the minister’s promise to police industry and enforce existing environmental laws is an empty one.” - @ecojustice_ca scientist Elaine MacDonald https://t.co/p2qBSrSlLl #onpoli

The public supports less policing and prisons but Harper invested in social discord.

Policing, Prison and construction were linked under the Harper Government.

Richard Bird was VP of Enbridge and he also served as a member of the Canada's Federal Minister of Finance's Advisory Committee on Financing and currently serves as chairman of the board of directors of the Alberta Investment Management

Richard Bird, a former VP of Enbridge is linked to Ecopatrol, missing money and a massive sex scandal in Colombia and Prison Schemes with bid rigging, corruption and collusion.

There was bid rigging corruption and collusion during Prime Minister Harper's term as they invested in private prisons across Canada. Read here. This mentions Bird Construction Inc. Richard Bird was VP of Enbridge Pipeline Inc.

@Pontifex I am a little fish but even I understand that Einstein was correct.


Brookfield and SNC Lavalin have to be stopped to stop the funding of Muslim Brotherhood. They bind to expensive nuclear under the guise of climate action to put in debt the nations. They delay funding of local, simple renewable energy to take power and money away from people.

They know oil and gas is failing and now we see ridiculous schemes planned to bring BC oil and Natural Gas to East Coast via Panama Canal for shipment globally under the guise of hurting Russia's pipeline prospects.

“Our entire project is about geopolitical issues,” Sorensen said at the London event. “It’s about diversifying western European gas away from Russia. And it’s why the German government is as supportive as they are.”

Money from TransMountain Pipeline, Enbridge Risk Management, Richard Bird's construction of Police stations all move through Intratrust linked to Trump and Russia's Rosneft, Jared Kushner etc.

Here is a special thread introducing our series on “The Making of the Islamic World.” It offers 10 episodes about the transformation of Islamicate societies between the 7th and 17th centuries. You can find the series page here: https://t.co/7mL9eWmMmz


This is Chris Gratien posting. I created this series during Fall 2020 for my students as asynchronous material supported by readings and discussion. This is going to be a long thread, but it will be a great shortcut for those looking to make similar use of these materials.

There are two items worth pointing out: 1. This is an overview of the political, social, and cultural history of Islamicate societies. It does not deal with the origins of Islam or many theological questions. It does discuss Islam’s spread and the transformation of Islamic law.

2. This is the first part of a two-part sequence that takes the history of the Islamic world into the present. It emphasizes developments and themes that have particular relevance for later periods.

This is really a multivocal narrative of Islamic history. We feature over 20 scholars from almost as many institutions. Many of those who worked on it, myself included, study the early modern and modern era but have teaching obligations that take us further back in history.

One defining feature of many Christian men today is the effeminate practice of covert and evasive speech.

Even worse is the fact that this manner of speaking is widely seen as the moral, "charitable," and polite manner of speech, to be praised, encouraged, & emulated.
(Thread)

The essence of this effeminate style in the evangelical man is the strategic avoidance of taking personal responsibility for (or "owning") what he has to say.

This goal (the evasion of responsibility) is achieved through various tactics calculated against clarity & precision...

Rather than saying exactly what he means in a clear, and unequivocal, manner, the polite evangelical man will hint at his meaning through innuendo and implication––so as to alway maintain the plausible deniability that he didn't mean the controversial thing he meant...

Or, if he does speak clearly with unambiguous moral authority, he will be sure to leave the object of his criticism unclear. The object of his criticism––whether a person, or an idea––will always remain abstract, theoretical, and disconnected from any specifics or concretes...

By implementing the right degree of unclarity on either the nature of his criticism, or on the object of it, he ensures that the right people in his audience will be emboldened and endeared toward him, but that he will never have to defend or substantiate what he has said...

If you have a spiritual practice, this would be a good time to double down on it.

If you don’t have a spiritual practice, this wouldn’t be the worst time to start one.

1/x


Thread on why


Do yr spiritual practice. Even when you don't feel like it.

“Hardly does our head begin to ache than we stop going to choir, which won’t kill us either. We stay away 1 day bc our head ached, another bc it was just now aching & 3 more so that it won’t ache again.” Teresa of Avila

Ok: a spiritual practice. Something that you do regularly, and if you do it with the right intention, can transform your relationship to yourself, other people, the world and your place in it and (if this resonates with you) the divine.

Prayer. Meditation. But also: making art. Walks in nature. Going running, for some people. I wrote a whole entire book on parenting as a spiritual practice. Intention matters.

You don’t have to be religious to have one.

A victim, who was one of those Peter Alabi tried to sleep with during the Covid-19 lockdown has shared with us some of the chats between her and Peter Alabi, which were initiated by Peter Alabi. According to the victim, when Peter Alabi's intentions became obvious, she decided...

राम-रावण युद्ध समाप्त हो चुका था। जगत को त्रास देने वाला रावण अपने कुटुम्ब सहित नष्ट हो चुका था।श्रीराम का राज्याभिषेक हुआ और अयोध्या नरेश श्री राम के नेतृत्व में चारों दिशाओं में शन्ति थी।
अंगद को विदा करते समय राम रो पड़े थे ।हनुमान को विदा करने की शक्ति तो राम में थी ही नहीं ।


माता सीता भी हनुमान को पुत्रवत मानती थी। अत: हनुमान अयोध्या में ही रह गए ।राम दिनभर दरबार में, शासन व्यवस्था में व्यस्त रहते थे। संध्या को जब शासकीय कार्यों में छूट मिलती तो गुरु और माताओं का कुशल-मंगल पूछ अपने कक्ष में जाते थे। परंतु हनुमान जी हमेशा उनके पीछे-पीछे ही रहते थे ।


उनकी उपस्थिति में ही सारा परिवार बहुत देर तक जी भर बातें करता ।फिर भरत को ध्यान आया कि भैया-भाभी को भी एकांत मिलना चाहिए ।उर्मिला को देख भी उनके मन में हूक उठती थी कि इस पतिव्रता को भी अपने पति का सानिध्य चाहिए ।

एक दिन भरत ने हनुमान जी से कहा,"हे पवनपुत्र! सीता भाभी को राम भैया के साथ एकांत में रहने का भी अधिकार प्राप्त है ।क्या आपको उनके माथे पर सिन्दूर नहीं दिखता?इसलिए संध्या पश्चात आप राम भैया को कृप्या अकेला छोड़ दिया करें "।
ये सुनकर हनुमान आश्चर्यचकित रह गए और सीता माता के पास गए ।


माता से हनुमान ने पूछा,"माता आप अपने माथे पर सिन्दूर क्यों लगाती हैं।" यह सुनकर सीता माता बोलीं,"स्त्री अपने माथे पर सिन्दूर लगाती है तो उसके पति की आयु में वृद्धि होती है और वह स्वस्थ रहते हैं "। फिर हनुमान जी प्रभु राम के पास गए ।

So when it first appeared in Normandy, the Sherman Firefly and it's meaty 17 pounder represented an ideal combo of reliable chassis, great gun and devastating firepower right?

Ummm...

Truth is a bit more complex. /1
#WW2 #SWW #History


Deliveries of Firefly to units only commenced in April 1944,
just a few weeks before Overlord & left minimal time for familiarisation.

Armoured Regiments mostly utilised Fireflies on a basis of 1 per troop of 4 tanks. /2


Finally each armoured regiment troop had access to integral, meaty, anti-tank firepower capable of dealing serious damage to any German AFV likely to be encountered. /3


The dual purpose 75mm gun was quite capable of laying down a reasonable HE shell or AP round for dealing with Panzer III or IV.

Firefly's 17 Pounder had.... problems with HE, but excelled at tank killing. So Tigers and Panthers would need to be wary. /4


Firefly's design history dated back to March 1943 when the General Staff published "Policy on Tanks" which effectively stated the majority of tanks should have a good HE weapon and...

Surkanda devi mandir is a famous shrine of Hindus located near Kaddukhal distt of Uttarakhand, 11 Km from the town of Dhanaulti and 35 Km from Mussoorie.
The Temple is one of the 51 Shakti Peethas spread all over Indian Subcontinent and is dedicated to Goddess Surkanda.


Nestled on a Hill at an Altitude of 2700 m approx, the place offers a splendid view of the snow capped mountains, the picturesque scenic beauty that offers an experience of the lifetime.
The Temple build in the traditional Garhwal style exuberates the Architectural splendour.


The origins of the Surkanda Mata Mandir is attributed to Goddess Sati, consort of Bhagwan Shiv who in a rage immolated herself in her arrogant Father Daksha's Yajna Kund bcoz he didn't invite Bhagwan Shiv in the Yajna.


Devastated by the death of Sati Shiva wandered all over the cosmos performing Tandava-The Dance of Cosmic Destruction.Fearing the total annihilation of cosmos, Gods requested Bhagwan Vishnu to pacify Shiva.Bhagwan Vishnu then used his discuss to destroy the burning corps of Sati.


The pieces of Sati Mata's body then got scattered all over the region which were later established as Shakti Peethas by Bhagwan Shiva himself.Its believed that the head of Sati fell here and it was called Sirkhanda Mata Temple before, but with passage of time it became Surkanda.
