Ethiopia wants to build a dam for the purpose of creating what would be Africa’s biggest hydroelectric power plant and the seventh largest one in the world. Egypt has been filled with consternation because, as the Egyptians argue, this dam would divert water from the Nile River which provides over 90% of their country’s water. […]
Egyptian President Gen. Abdel Fatah el-Sisi continues to demonstrate leadership on a world stage. As his country is surrounded by ISIS terrorists and threatened by Turkey, the el-Sisi government is closing more than 25,000 Mosques in Egypt. Known as smaller, “local places of worship” the closure of these facilities indicates that el-Sisi is taking steps […]
By Walid Shoebat and Ben Barrack When it comes to Middle East coverage, the western media is plagued with incompetent journalists (if in doubt, read here) who rarely do their homework. Today, there is no such thing as “professional journalism”. There are supposedly professional journalists who are simply cynics and agenda driven. So the story is, especially when […]
The words “religious equality” tickle the ears of many and in theory, it sounds great. The problem is that many of those who harp on it publicly, represent Islamic groups or nations like the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), who really don’t want religious equality at all. They want everyone to agree on a set […]
In a video uploaded to YouTube last April (posted below and in Arabic), a Muslim who has been featured recently in a Dallas Morning News article in his capacity as a moderate Muslim judge, appears to be anything but moderate. In the video, that judge – Taher el-Badawi – makes it clear who he supports […]
In an AMAZINGLY disconnected and at best insensitive statement, Secretary of State John Kerry said in sworn testimony today: Our citizens, our world today is actually, despite ISIL, despite the visible killings that you see and how horrific they are, we are actually living in a period of less daily threat to Americans and to […]
A tweet sent out by Mohammed al-Houfi is very revealing about just how aligned ISIS, the Muslim Brotherhood and Turkey are. Shoebat.com explained much of this dynamic in a post entitled, Egyptian-Libyan Crisis for Dummies. Here is an image of the tweet, with a translation underneath: Translation: Why are they afraid of the Ottoman Empire? […]
The truth is that as an Al-Jazeera reporter, Mohamed Fahmy was in Egypt for one overriding purpose. As an agent for Al-Jazeera, that purpose was to push a Qatari-backed Muslim Brotherhood agenda. The rub is that Fahmy held dual Canadian / Egyptian citizenship and Canadian media – as well as the Prime Minister Stephen Harper […]
The Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood has been doing an awful lot of sabre rattling from Turkey recently. As Shoebat.com reported recently, the Obama State Department rolled out the red carpet for the Muslim Brotherhood and more specifically, the Revolutionary Council of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, which operates from Turkey. As those meetings were taking place, Muslim […]
Some are cheering the news that convicted terrorist Sami al-Arian has been ‘deported’ to Turkey. Upon further review, this deportation may be closer to the ones given to the Taliban Five who went to Qatar along with $5 Billion in exchange for deserter Bowe Bergdahl. Where al-Arian is going – and where he is not […]
Buried at the bottom of a report about how an Egyptian court has upheld the death sentences of nearly 200 Muslim Brotherhood loyalists could be a far more telling development. The deposed president of that country – Mohammed Mursi – is scheduled to go to trial later this month on charges that include spying for […]
By Walid Shoebat and Ben Barrack **SHOEBAT EXCLUSIVE** In an extremely brazen act, the U.S. State Department opened its arms to a Muslim Brotherhood delegation from Egypt, led by a MAJOR Muslim Brotherhood activist judge named Waleed Sharaby. The plans for the trip began last August in Turkey, where the Revolutionary Council of the Egyptian […]
It can be said that the best way to defeat evil is to get evil to reveal itself. As world events continue to unfold, Turkey is moving closer to having to reveal its true intentions. The Syrian town of Kobane, which sits along the border with Turkey, is back in the news again as it […]
One of the more shocking things Barack Obama is remembered for is bowing to Saudi King Abdullah shortly after being elected. It made international headlines and is referenced even today by Obama’s critics as anecdotal evidence that he is a Muslim. When it comes to Obama, however, if one thing has been learned, it’s that […]
It’s been formally acknowledged that U.S. NATO ‘ally’ Turkey is providing safe haven to leaders of Hamas, a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) so designated by the U.S. State Department. By its very definition, an FTO should be considered declared enemy of the U.S. Despite this, Turkey doesn’t appear to be paying any price. Another player […]
The claims made by Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HA), that Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton had ‘no after plan’ in Libya once the removal of Muammar Gadhafi was complete, were a bit surprising, coming from a Democrat. In an interview about the deteriorating situation all across the Middle East, Gabbard was asked about Libya specifically. She […]
