The Women of Ceuta If I am quoting from selections in my library, written by Islamic scholars, will I still receive the dog whistle of "Islamophobia" for bringing uncomfortable truths to light? https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-16057659/Hundreds-Ceuta-migrants-stage-protest-demanding-Spain-asylum-left-sleeping-beach-following-invasion-medics-fight-disease-outbreaks.html Let's take a moment, and digest a few things from my library - direct quotes - regarding the women of Islam.  Let me just go to the Sunni side of the house, regarding their codified jurisprudence. Concubinage (sex slaves) in time of war (Rape of females):  "It is not permitted for any of them to have intercourse with a girl from amongst the captives until she has been allotted to him in his share, in which case he may have intercourse with her only after the istibra of one month." "If he has made her pregnant, the child becomes his...." Domestic abuse: "The husband may hit his...

Evening Thoughts on the Sudan The calm and the superficial of Sudan can be found here:  https://x.com/TSC_SUDAN The face of Sudanese leadership here,  visiting North Kordofan state. But if "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" applies, (then) what happens in the air-conditioned salons of the Gulf States,  China,  and Russia also stays within these salons-of-conversation to reach out and effect the reality of what Sudan has become. We can hunt Hemedti until the cows come home.  The Sudanese can then send the man off with a hearty "Good riddance".  But another will take his place.  Oh wait! I see a pattern here.  Former President Omar al Bashir was chased out of his palace.  My concern when this happened was that a more virulent human being would allocate the space, because space hates a vacuum.  That vacuum was quickly filled. And then there are the multiple of "others" who control Sudan; and they are smart enough not to live within the...

Signal The graphic is a strong signal from Ahadith.  It is widely used by highly educated scholars. Sign, signal and code:    The Qur'an is sign (ayat), signal (the electrical voltage which is activated when combined with ahadith) and code (the Ahadith is the code book which unlocks the signal).  I have used this model for many years now. Al Qaeda also used it to message. If you do not recognize the signal, please return to reading "People" magazine. Smiling, Tammy
Morning Humor: It is Ruled Out The connection is not that they all worked at Wal-Mart.  https://www.dailymail.com/sciencetech/article-16053233/autopsy-melissa-casias-los-alamos-death.html

Iran's Diplomatic Overtures   The "big three" met today.  A priority?  To regain custody of their three pilots being held by Qatar for about six months now.   We receive the usual daily headlines regarding war.  This is what sells to the public.  But we can forget that diplomacy runs along quiet tracks.
My Great Uneasiness with the Use of Shock Gloves   "First they came for the Jew...." https://apnews.com/article/ice-electric-shock-gloves-85ff746d3e0ee5f39e7a9a3f1f576252 https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/aug/11/ice-electric-shock-gloves Not only do I have great uneasiness, I oppose the use of shock gloves to bring an individual into compliance with law enforcement.  I foresee shock gloves replacing adequate training. Does this seem like a bee sting to you?  I have been stung by a wasp (probably worse than a bee sting) and kept mowing the lawn. I did not drop to my knees nor shout in pain. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/auuUMHIRvxA I believe this is a civil rights issue and has legal merit for consideration. This needs to move rapidly through the courts and we need to get ahead of the technology.   Individuals may suffer from underlying heart disease or neuro-conductive disorders.  Beyond that, I consider it a form of torture.  I have always and...
