Another instance of what I call "disbelief about belief": the religious belief in martyrdom and rewards in the afterlife is so alien and bizarre to secular Westerners that many assume the "human shields" strategy (as used by Hamas) must be a myth, a lie, or an invention. https://t.co/je6sDU3kCI #Martyrdom #HumanShields #Secularism
Well, to be honest, Khamenei was a sick man who wanted to be martyred, and he did it in such a way that it, most likely, changed the Middle East forever. Thanks for playing. #Khamenei #MiddleEast #Martyrdom #IR #PS
1939-1945 are dark years for the homeland: they are those of the terrible humiliation of 1940, those of the long martyrdom of the German Occupation, but also those, in parallel, of all the cowardice of an undignified regime, and without any legitimacy. (Original: 1939-1945 sont des années noires pour la patrie : elles sont celles de l’épouvantable humiliation de 1940, celles du long martyr de l’Occupation allemande, mais aussi celles, en parallèle, de toutes les lâchetés d’un régime indigne, et sans légitimité aucune. https://t.co/MyrNZ85lmZ) #DarkYears #GermanOccupation #HistoricalReflection #DE
