       Without West Africa, France has nothing.I hope Niger is able to shake off the colonizers and hopefully other African nations help them.

       I actually wear turbans and somehow the one on the right doesn't really bother me. Eh, he was young.

       A lot of Muslims hold Western Academia on Islamic studies in a lot of skepticism. Historically that skepticism was valid, but they have gotten a LOT better, especially in manuscript preservation. But this type of stuff is insane and makes the entire field look less like research and more like ideological propagation.

       I assume no, but India is uniquely bad right now, as it as gone deep into the nationalist path.By the way, I see that you're an Orthodox Christian. I assume you're aware of the Syro-Malabar Indian Church? Christians are getting it pretty bad too in Manipur, rapes, lynchings, etc :(I've seen videos where Indian Christians surrounded by Hindutva mobs who force them to chant the Hindi of "Lord Ram Lives" (Jai Sri Ram), or else they get killed (literally).

       Context: Ram is a Hindu GodCrowd: Say Jai Sri Ram (Holy Ram Lives) - My note: "Bol" is a disrespectful/rude way to say "Say/Speak"Crowd: One moment (aik minute) - Looking at the womanCrowd: Why? Why aren't you saying Jai Sri Ram?Woman: If you people have a problem, we will leave, note the word "aap" is a respectful way of saying "You"Crowd: Why did you even come here?Man: This is not a way of speaking to people.Crowd: What is wrong with this way? This is our way (of speech)Woman: Then we will leave.

       This is one of my main criticisms of BSD systems, there's a lot of shell scripts and custom configurations, not enough cleaned-up, pre-built tools to do standard things.A prime example is FreeBSD never using successfully mass marketing/using jail...it was one shell script to the next.https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloudformation-cli/latest/userguide/resource-types.html#:~:text=without%20having%20to%20resort%20to%20time%2Dconsuming%20and%20error%2Dprone%20methods%20like%20manual%20configuration%20or%20custom%20scripts.

       If I lived in France right now, I would leave.If I had a European passport, I would move to another European country.If I was an American, I would quit my job, sell everything and leave.

       Israel has killed at least 9000 Civilians in the past few days.9000.Had the situation been the other way around, this would dominate the news.
