I personally believe you cannot fully understand Saudi Arabia's 🇸🇦 statecraft without understanding 'Shahamah' (شهامة). I can't emphasize enough how important this term is to understanding the Saudi national psyche and the spirit shared by government and society. Shahamah is difficult to capture in a single English word. It combines nobility of character, honor, courage, generosity, dignity, keeping one's word, and standing by others in times of need. In the historic heartland of the Arab world and the cradle of Islam, Shahamah carries a deeper civilizational weight. It is not merely a social trait. It also helps explain the instinct behind Saudi policies: supporting allies, aiding countries in crisis, mediating disputes, honoring commitments, and carrying responsibility beyond narrow self interest. So if you truly want to understand Saudi Arabia, get accustomed to viewing it through the lens of Shahamah. Many things will start to make much more sense afterward. Salman Al-Ansari

🔟-🔟🇩🇪 The Human Cost of Naivety: ⛔️ [Below is a clip by the BBC, glorifying the same terrorist!] Don’t be surprised; it’s happened over and over again and may never stop until the West wakes up and takes decisive actions to put an end to terrorism. This tragedy is a stark reminder of the cost of prioritizing naive human rights slogans over public safety and failing to hold dangerous individuals accountable. 🚩 A Necessary Shift: • Enhanced international security cooperation. • Stricter oversight of asylum seekers with criminal histories. • Investigation into questionable human rights organizations enabling such individuals. • Immediate action on clear and direct threats. • Transparent and responsible media reporting. ● The victims deserved better. This incident should serve as a wake-up call for European authorities and media. 🔴 Share this thread and demand accountability and change. #Germany #Maagdenburg #Magdebourg Elon Musk #Deutschland

“In 2025, 12,000 British 🇬🇧 citizens were arrested or jailed for exercising freedom of expression on social media. The era of patronizing Western moral grandstanding has passed.” - My response on the BBC regarding Saudi Arabia’s human rights, amid Prince William’s visit.

So people don’t forget: the UAE 🇦🇪 -backed despicable RSF militia stormed the Saudi Hospital in El Fasher / Sudan 🇸🇩 and filmed the execution of 460 patients and unarmed civilians in cold blood. The last victim was an elderly man, killed where he sought care, not combat.

■ Saudi Minister of Media سلمان الدوسري 🇸🇦: "We are dealing with a terrorist militia. [The Houthis’] attacks on the Two Holy Mosques, civilians, and civilian and vital infrastructure reveal their true nature." "Life in the Kingdom continues as normal. The Kingdom’s top priority is ensuring the safety of its citizens and residents."

"Today's strike in Sana'a came in response to Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia’s airports and energy facilities. It reinforces the Saudi Cabinet's statement that the Houthi militia will face punishment for its actions." - احمد الغامدي Asharq News الشرق للأخبار .

Abu Dhabi 🇦🇪 developed a paranoid narrative and convinced itself that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman 🇸🇦 had asked President Trump 🇺🇸 to impose sanctions on the UAE over its support for genocide in Sudan / Al-Fashir. This never happened. They also assumed that Washington was unaware of Abu Dhabi’s conduct ahead of the Saudi visit. They evidently overlooked a congressional hearing last year when Secretary Marco Rubio stated explicitly: "The UAE is openly supporting an entity that is carrying out a genocide."

As a #Muslim from the birthplace of #Islam; I reject Ilhan Omar's use of the victimization card. Proposing that she was ousted from the FA committee due to her religion is just preposterous. She should be thankful for the opportunities she received from the country she despises.

Important: Do you remember the Reuters report I posted two weeks ago? Egypt’s 🇪🇬 envoy to the UN 🇺🇳 Security Council implicitly accused Ethiopia 🇪🇹 and the UAE 🇦🇪, without naming them, of fueling the Sudan 🇸🇩 war by providing a training camp and arms to the RSF militia, signaling direct involvement.
