Saudi bombing Yemen on behalf of the U.S.

#Saudi bombing #Yemen on behalf of the #US #MuslimsSalvageYourselves

It has been proven that Saudi are now using cluster bombs to attack Muslims in Yemen. Note that it is not just the Houthi's being targeted as the attacks have not in any way, shape or form been targeting rebels but rather has been random attacks to destroy the infrastructure of Yemen including schools, roads, airports and industry as well as innocent Muslim lives. Human Rights Watch has reported the use of such weaponry with photo evidence as well as proof of the trade deals between Saudi and US to acquire such sophisticated and destructive bombs that should never be used in any type of war due to their uncoordinated use which will inevitably kill more civilians than it would strike actual targets.

"Bombs containing BLU-97 submunitions were transferred by the United States to Saudi Arabia as part of arms sales announced in the early 1990s". ~ Human Rights Watch

Dear Muslims, salvage yourselves. Account the rulers that disobey Allah (swt) when the Prophet ﷺ  said: "The wiping away of the World means less to Allah than a Believer to be killed unjustly" Ibn Maja

Using Propaganda to Win the War in Ukraine

The Western media has been abuzz in recent days with the claim that videos posted to youtube, which show Ukrainian prisoners being “mistreated” by anti-Kiev rebels, amount to war crimes. Naturally, such claims deserve attention as violations of international laws governing war and treatment of prisoners are of concern to all. However, it is equally true that those calling for prosecution of the anti-Kiev rebels are applying a farcical double standard as they have utterly ignored the exponentially more egregious war crimes committed by the Ukrainian military and its neo-Nazi auxiliaries.

This complete whitewashing of countless war crimes committed by Kiev is not coincidental, nor is it a mystery. In fact, it is part of a coordinated campaign by the western media and western non-profit industrial complex to frame the narrative in such a way as to cast Kiev ‘s forces as righteous and just, while the anti-Kiev rebels are terrorist criminals. This complete inversion of reality is par for the course for the West, which, recognizing it cannot achieve its geopolitical ambitions in Ukraine by force, instead will seek to do it through propaganda.

Essentially, Gorbunova and her colleagues are cherry-picking their information so as to charge anti-Kiev rebels with war crimes, while completely ignoring the widespread war crimes committed by pro-Kiev forces, including indiscriminate shelling of civilians,deliberate targeting of journalists and medical personnel, mass killings and mass graves, the use of internationally banned weapons, etc., all of which have been documented. Even Human Rights Watch (HRW), the very organization Gorbunova works for, and not exactly an objective party as it is part and parcel of the US soft power apparatus, has documented a number of egregious war crimes committed by the Ukrainian military and neo-Nazi militias.

In its report Ukraine: Unguided Rockets Killing Civilians, HRW documented that “Unguided Grad rockets launched apparently by Ukrainian government forces and pro-government militias have killed at least 16 civilians and wounded many more in insurgent-controlled areas of Donetsk and its suburbs in at least four attacks between July 12 and 21, 2014.” We did not hear an outcry from Gorbunova over these heinous war crimes which have killed, and continue to kill, hundreds (if not more) innocent civilians in Donetsk, Lugansk, and the surrounding areas. Can one be considered a serious human rights investigator if one makes an equivalence between marching soldiers publicly through the streets and the deliberate shelling of civilians? Such an obvious bias certainly calls into question the objectivity of Gorbunova and HRW.
