Middle East Madness > While Erdogan longs to rebuild the Ottoman Empire, Qatar has global ambitions for Islam

 

As I have mentioned in the past, Turkey is looking for an excuse to invade Israel, but it must wait until the USA has turned against its Middle East ally, or until there is a disastrous financial collapse. With the unpredictable Trump as President, anything is possible, but it's more likely to happen with a Democratic government in the USA.


Turkey Is Preparing For War Against Israel, While Qatar Takes Down The American Rightwing


September 18, 2025 7.8K views

With Israel’s Gaza City operation in full swing as ground troops enter the last major stronghold and Jihadist capital, something else is brewing in the Middle East.

It is no secret that after Israel attacked Hamas’s political leadership residing in Qatar’s capital of Doha on September 9th, the Qataris have been trying to rally the Arab world to their side. Qatar’s Emir called for an emergency summit that was held on September 15th, 2025. The Arab-Islamic emergency summit in Doha was convened to tackle the Israeli attack on Qatar, viewed as a breach of a GCC nation’s sovereignty. Key discussions were expected to focus on diminishing U.S. influence in the region after its failure to provide effective security assurances. The agenda reportedly included exploring new defense alliances with China and Turkey, evaluating the partial withdrawal of U.S. forces in favor of alternative security partners, and considering the termination of multi-billion-dollar U.S. arms agreements due to concerns over reliability and security.

So far, Qatar has not publicly left the US orbit, but cozying up to China and admitting what everyone already knows, that it is in partnership with its fellow Muslim Brotherhood country of Turkey for control over the region, can be seen as key outcomes of the summit.

For years now, the Qatari-Turkish partnership has formed the nucleus of the emerging Sunni Caliphate in the Middle East. The Al-Thani family of Qatar and Erdogan of Turkey had already long ago divvied up roles in the rising Muslim Brotherhood empire. Qatar essentially props up Turkey’s economy, while Erdogan provides the industrial output and army for Qatar’s Jihad in the region.

However, Qatar’s ambitions extend far beyond the Middle East. The Al-Thani’s want Islam to be global. So to do that, Qatar’s money is spent on not only influencing the American and European left, but when it comes to the US, splitting the conservative movement between pro-Israel and anti-Israel factions. 

This can be seen openly on X on accounts like Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson. Whether Qatari money is directly behind them or not, the fact is, Qatari bots are promoting anti-Israel voices in the right-wing, the same way the Qataris infiltrated the left using the American universities.

Qatar’s strategy has always been to fund the Marxist-Islamist partnership (known as the Red-Green Alliance) to undercut American unity and support for Israel. Ultimately, it was a leftwing trans-activist, essentially a product of the Red-Green Alliance, who killed Charlie Kirk, and just when his assassination should have woken the country up to Qatar’s manipulation of Generation Z, the right continues its splinter with the Woke Right (or better called the Qatari right) diverting attention to Israel as the culprit.

Interestingly, Qatar’s manipulation of the American media, university, and conservative movement is exactly what those on the far right accuse Israel of doing. The result of all of this is a weakening of US support for Israel, as well as creating confusion and chaos on American streets.

Turkey Is Coming For The Holy Land

Turkey has made it clear that it wants to reassert itself over the Land of Israel and, as the main partner in the Qatari-backed Muslim Brotherhood caliphate, Erdogan’s Turkish Armed Forces (TAF) have been tasked with conquering the Jewish State.

A Turkish media outlet aligned with President Erdogan has disclosed a “target bank” of strategic sites in Israel that Turkey’s military would focus on in the event of a conflict with Israel.

As tensions escalate between Turkey and Israel, the outlet revealed a list of key military and strategic locations, including air force bases in Nevatim, Hatzerim, Ramat David, and the Tel Aviv suburbs, the ports of Haifa, Ashdod, and Eilat, the Tamar and Leviathan gas rigs, and the Dimona nuclear facility.

Israel has not been quiet as well, and in preparation for a potential conflict with Turkey, it has begun to shift anti-aircraft installations over to Cyprus, while increasing cooperation with both Greek and Cypriot armed forces. Alongside this, Israel has been bolstering its cooperation with Druze separatists in Sweida. According to reports, the Israeli government has been providing weapons and money to the pro-Israel Military Council in Sweida.

So is any of this enough to counter the Qatari-Turkish Muslim Brotherhood Caliphate? On the face of it, not at all - especially if the US fully descends into internal chaos and the coming generation is awash in anti-Israel propaganda. Israel must continue to strengthen its partnerships with Eastern European ethno-nationalist states like Poland, Lithuania, the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Austria. Alongside this, Israel should completely back Kurdish autonomy, if not full independence, in Syria.

Only a coalition of indigenous cultures in the Middle East and those Christian nations in Europe that have not yet succumbed to the Red-Green Alliance propaganda can counter the growing Muslim Brotherhood Caliphate. If not, Islam may be able to accomplish something it has never done in its 1400-year-old history – taking over the West – permanently.

Syrian Sunni Intolerance falls upon musicians > They beat, cut the hair, humiliated singer

 

Syria: Muslims arrest singer, beat him, cut off his hair and humiliate him, drawing on his face and chest


“‘Imran bin Husain narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: ‘In this Ummah there shall be collapsing of the earth, transformation and Qadhf.’ A man among the Muslims said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! When is that?’ He said: ‘When singing slave-girls, music, and drinking intoxicants spread.’” (Jami at-Tirmidhi 2212)

“It was narrated from Abu Malik Ash’ari that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘People among my nation will drink wine, calling it by another name, and musical instruments will be played for them and singing girls (will sing for them). Allah will cause the earth to swallow them up, and will turn them into monkeys and pigs.’” (Sunan Ibn Majah 4020)

“Narrated Aisha: Abu Bakr came to my house while two small Ansari girls were singing beside me the stories of the Ansar concerning the Day of Buath. And they were not singers. Abu Bakr said protestingly, ‘Musical instruments of Satan in the house of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) !’ It happened on the `Id day and Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, ‘O Abu Bakr! There is an `Id for every nation and this is our `Id.’” (Sahih al-Bukhari 952)



At gunpoint | Folk singer ‘Omar Khairi’ humiliated in Al-Bab city for ‘practicing Tashbih'

SOHR, August 1, 2025 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Aleppo province: A group of gunmen affiliated to the “National Army” in Al-Bab city in the northern countryside of Aleppo arrested a Syrian folk singer, beat him, cut his hair and humiliated him following a raid on a wedding hall in the city.

According to SOHR sources, the reason behind arresting the singer is manifested in singing previously for the Syrian army during the rule of Bashar Al-Assad, as well as accusing him of “practicing Tashbih” (from Shabiha; the abuse of power).

SOHR obtained video footages showing the arrest of the singer and the physical and mental humiliation he was subjected to through cutting off his hair and painting on his face, as well as forcing him to sing songs glorifying the current Syrian president….

Islamization of UK > Muslim Extremists trying to buy Scottish island for new Sharia compliant Islamic home

 

UK: Shi’ite Muslim cleric raises $3,850,000

to buy small island and turn it into

Sharia-adherent Islamic state


A man should not be able to buy land in a sovereign nation and enforce a legal system separate from that of the nation itself. But shattered, staggering, dhimmi Britain is unlikely to summon the will to stop Yasser al-Habib. To do so would be “Islamophobic.”

Anyway, Yasser al-Habib is impatient. Before too long, the whole country will be under Sharia anyway.

Hate cleric with his own ‘army’ raises £3m to create Islamic homeland on Scottish island – as the extremist who already runs military-style training camps bids to build his own school, hospital and mosque and practise sharia law at remote spot

by Abul Taher and Daisy Graham-Brown, Daily Mail, July 28, 2024:

A firebrand cleric who has been accused of spreading hate has raised more than £3 million to buy a small British island and turn it into his own Islamic state.

The Mail on Sunday can reveal that Sheikh Yasser al-Habib, 45 – who claimed asylum in Britain 20 years ago after fleeing his native Kuwait – and his followers are in advanced talks to buy the remote isle of Torsa, off the west coast of Scotland.












Torsa is one of the Slate Islands in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. Lying east of Luing and south of Seil, this tidal island was inhabited until the 1960s. There is now only one house there, which is used for holiday lets. Wikipedia

Area: 113 ha

Highest elevation: 62 m (203 ft)

Island group: Slate Islands

Population: 0

Sovereign state: United Kingdom

The extremist scholar, who already runs military-style training camps, hopes his organisation can build its own school, hospital and mosque on the island, where it intends to practise sharia law.

In a video encouraging supporters to donate towards their £3.5 million target, the cleric says he will negotiate with the Government to allow Muslims ‘from all over the world’ to be given a visa in order for them to live in their new ‘homeland’.

Residents on the neighbouring island of Luing reacted with concern when The Mail on Sunday revealed his plans to them.

One man said: ‘I’ve spent much of my life working in Muslim countries so have no issues whatsoever with that community, but this group do seem alarming from what I’ve just seen now.’

Al-Habib, who is accused of stirring up sectarian hatred in Britain and in the Arab world between Shias and rival Sunni Muslims, has his ‘global headquarters’ in the picturesque village of Fulmer, South Buckinghamshire….

Al-Habib has since said on Fadak TV that Torsa, which comes with two little adjoining islets, is an ‘irreplaceable opportunity’.


Encouraging supporters to donate, he said Torsa will become an Islamic ‘homeland’ which they will create to prepare for the coming of their messiah, known as mahdi.

In one three-minute video, al-Habib says: ‘If you want to live free under the banner of the imam [Shia leader], in a special homeland where you feel everything in it reminds you of the awaited mahdi, everything is the Shia homeland…support this project.’

In the same video, another man, who is filming from Torsa, says: ‘Here, my brothers, God willing, we want to build a large mosque, a school and a hawza [Shia seminary]. We want this place to be a homeland to the Shias and the believers.’ The footage switches to images of al-Habib’s ‘army’, called Al-Shurta Al-Khamis, training and doing drills in the grounds of his mosque in Fulmer.

In another video, al-Habib, who spent nearly three months in jail in Kuwait for insulting the Sunni faith, said the MSU will obtain the right for Shias from around the world to immigrate to the island….

Turning this bleak, little island into Mecca NW is going to take an engineering miracle. Can you imagine thousands or tens of thousands of people on this island? What are they going to eat and where will they get water from, not to mention building materials.

Islamic Massacres This Week > Jihadis murder 100 soldiers in Burkina Faso;


* Five years ago Burkina Faso was 64% Muslim, mostly Sunni, and 26% Christian, mostly Catholic.

It's amazing that none of these Sahel countries are prepared to fight Islamic jihad, or is it?


Burkina Faso: Jihadis murder over 100 soldiers

Once again we see a jihad force in Africa apparently stronger than those of a national military.

Al Qaeda affiliate claims responsibility for Burkina Faso

attack that killed over 100

Victoria Advocate, June 17, 2024 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Al Qaeda affiliate Jama’a Nusrat ul-Islam wa al-Muslimin (JNIM) group has claimed responsibility for an attack on June 11 that killed over 100 Burkina Faso soldiers in Mansila area near the border with Niger, the SITE Intelligence Group said on Sunday….



Fatalities linked to militant Islamist violence (in Africa) rose by 20 percent in the past year (from 19,412 in 2022 to 23,322)—a record level of lethal violence. This represents a near doubling in deaths since 2021. 83 percent of the reported fatalities have been in the Sahel and Somalia.

Islamic Insanity - Boy, 6, Beheaded in Front of Screaming Mum in Saudi Arabia 'For Being Shia, Not Sunni'

The child was killed in Medina, Saudi Arabia, while visiting a shrine
to the Prophet Muhammad; Islam - The Religion of Peace


By Joshua Taylor Deputy news editor, The Mirror

A six-year-old boy was beheaded in front of his screaming mum in Saudi Arabia for belonging to the wrong branch of Islam, according to reports.

The child and his mum were allegedly approached while visiting a shrine to the Prophet Muhammad in Medina and asked if they were Shia Muslims.

Medina is the second holiest site in Islam. Those who beheaded the little boy were just following Sharia as written by Mohammed in the Quran. Devout Muslims!

The mum reportedly said yes and several minutes later a car pulled up beside them and the child was snatched away from her.

The boy - named locally as Zakaria Al-Jaber - was repeatedly stabbed in the neck with a piece of broken glass until he was beheaded, it is claimed.

His helpless mum could only watch and scream as the horror unfolded.

Saudi Arabia's predominant branch of Islam is Sunni, accounting for around three quarters of the population.

Human rights groups say practitioners of other forms of the faith - including Shia - are persecuted.

Shia Rights Watch, a Washington DC-based campaign group, said: "There was no intervention from anyone and no response from authority thus far.

"The Saudi Shia community came together in mourning and to show solidarity with the parents.

"The community also reported this incident is a result of ongoing violations and lack of protection by the Saudi authority toward its Shia population.  

"Saudi Shia have been under military crackdown by their government and many Shia are in prisons and on death toll."

Yemen: Up to 85,000 Young Children Dead from Starvation

Yemen is a proxy war between Iran and Saudi Arabia, ie Shia and Sunni Islam. Western countries
happily provide Saudi Arabia with weapons while Eastern countries provide Iran with weapons.
So, in effect, it is also a proxy war between Eastern and Western arms manufacturers.
And, as always, it is children who suffer the most from adult madness.


This article is more than 11 months old - Update follows.

Save the Children condemns ‘preventable’ deaths of under-fives and calls for end to war

Bethan McKernan, Middle East correspondent, and agencies
The Guardian

An estimated 85,000 children under the age of five have starved to death over the last three years as a result of Yemen’s civil war, a report from Save the Children has found, as the charity urged an immediate ceasefire to prevent more loss of life.

The figure is a conservative estimate based on UN data on severe acute malnutrition, which the international body says has afflicted more than 1.3 million children since the conflict between Houthi rebels and the Saudi-led coalition that seeks to restore Yemen’s exiled government began in 2015.


About 14 million people – half of Yemen’s population – are currently at risk of famine, largely because of Saudi border blockades designed to weaken the Houthis, which have also strangled civilian access to food, fuel, aid and commercial goods.

Fears for Yemen’s civilian population have increased in recent weeks because of an escalation in fighting around the Red Sea port city of Hodeidah, through which about 80% of the country’s imports flow.


Even a small amount of damage to the port’s facilities, and a delay in aid deliveries, is likely to lead the UN to declare a widespread famine.

“I am scared of the war and worried we won’t have food. It is distressing,” said Suad, a mother to 13-month-old Nusair, whom Save the Children is treating for severe acute malnutrition. “I can’t go to sleep, it is torturing, and I am worried about my children. I couldn’t live if any harm came to them.”

The new violence in Hodeidah has forced the charity to divert shipments for the rebel-held north of the country via Aden, a city nominally loyal to the government, causing delivery delays of up to two weeks.

“This conflict has created a perfect storm of conditions that has driven the country to the brink of famine,” said Bhanu Bhatnagar, a Save the Children spokesman. “The violence has disrupted food production and destroyed hospitals and health centres where the weak and sick can be treated.

“Barriers to importing and distributing supplies have severely restricted the amount of food getting into and around the country. And in markets where food is actually available, ordinary people simply can’t afford to buy it as salaries have been unpaid for months and the currency has collapsed in value.”

The UN’s special envoy to Yemen, Martin Griffiths, has extracted promises from both the coalition and the Houthis to attend peace talks at the end of November after a failed round in September.

Griffiths flew into rebel-held capital Sanaa Wednesday to push for fresh peace talks.

A draft resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire was presented to the UN security council on Monday, although a vote has not yet been timetabled.

“For children under the age of five this situation is proving a death sentence,” Bhatnagar said. “What is shocking about Yemen is that these 85,000 deaths are not a result of drought or climate change, they are entirely the result of a manmade conflict that is fuelled by countries who have the power to stop it.”


The UK – along with other western governments – has been repeatedly criticised by rights groups for its support for the Saudi-led coalition, including arms sales.

In the House of Commons on Wednesday, British foreign secretary Jeremy Hunt said the conflict was a “humanitarian catastrophe”, and told MPs the UN resolution seeking to relieve the humanitarian crisis in the country put forward by Britain aimed to “maximise the chances of achieving a political settlement”.

Hunt said: “The important thing about the resolution that we are proposing is not that this is the end of the story, in terms of international efforts to broker a ceasefire, this is a step in the road.

“We want a ceasefire, we want a ceasefire that will hold, and we know that the risk that if you go for too much too early in these resolutions is that they end up getting ignored.

“And so this is a carefully brokered form of words designed to get a consensus from both sides that allow talks to start before the end of this month in Stockholm. That’s the objective of this resolution.

“If the talks are successful we will be able to have a much stronger resolution that follows those talks.”



Update: Oct 4th, 2019 - 

Saudi Arabia considering some form of Yemen ceasefire

Aziz El Yaakoubi, Stephen Kalin, Lisa Barrington, 

DUBAI/RIYADH (Reuters) - Saudi Arabia is considering a proposal by Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi movement for some form of ceasefire which, if agreed, could bolster U.N. efforts to end a devastating war tarnishing Riyadh’s reputation.

The Houthis offered two weeks ago to stop aiming missile and drone attacks at Saudi Arabia if the western-backed coalition led by Riyadh does the same, as a step to what a Houthi leader called a “comprehensive national reconciliation”.


In other words, there has been no real progress in the 9-10 months following the Guardian article. Children are still dying, Western countries are still raking in Saudi cash, and no governments or media outlets are standing up for the suffering and dying children of Yemen. The media is all too focused on the climate change hysteria. What a sad commentary on 21st century society.
