2014-09-28 QATAR: Tariq Ramadan on Islamic Ethics in the Era of Genomics

2014-09-28 QATAR: Tariq Ramadan on Islamic Ethics in the Era of Genomics
==========================
Tariq Ramadan - a different Moslem voice - grandson of the founder of the Moslem Brotherhood in Egypt, son of a senior leader of the organization, who was exiled under Naser, Tariq grew up in Switzerland and was educated in Switzerland and Sweden. Today Prof of Islam in Geneva and Oxford.
The item is of interest, for various reasons:
a) The subject of the lecture is relatively sophisticated. 
b) It takes place in Qatar, at a time that a coalition of US-Israel-Egypt-Saudia, which employs a powerful Washington DC lobbying firm is working hard on painting Qatar as a reactionary terror center.
c) It should be noted that Ramadan is barred from the US, Egypt, Saudia, and that Qatar is also the home of Al Jazeera, an operation that surely couldn't exist in Egypt or Saudia.
In short: A more objective assessment of the situation is that Qatar is a relatively progressive regime in the Moslem world, while the US and Israel are aligned with some of the more reactionary regimes in the region...

2014-09-28 'You are not a product': Privacy-friendly ad-free 'anti-Facebook' network Ello explodes
==============================================
A mostly obscure, privacy-orientated social network - an ‘anti-Facebook’ of sorts - has recently undergone meteoric growth. It poses itself as an advert-free enterprise which is not going to become a tool to manipulate its users.

2014-09-28 Tariq Ramadan (official) on Obama the hypocrite

2014-09-28 Tariq Ramadan (official) on Obama the hypocrite
=====================================
President Barack Obama : About the Arab States
“If young people live in places where the only option is between the dictates of a state, or the lure of an extremist underground, then no counterterrorism strategy can succeed. But where a genuine civil society is allowed to flourish — where people can express their views, and organize peacefully for a better life — then you dramatically expand the alternatives to terror.”
You truly stated such a truth? So tell us please about your support to Egypt, Saudi Arabia and so many dictators... before lecturing the world about civil society and freedom. Do you sincerely believe you (and The West) have no responsibility in what is happening in the Middle East?
The Arab States must be blamed, for sure, ... as much as you and your (hypocritical) policies

===============================
A new documentary by the US Public Broadcasting Service again documents the criminality of US banking executives, and refusal of the US government to prosecute them. Some tie the numerous media reports on this matter to the resignation of US Attorney General Eric Holder, announced yesterday, who was titled by some media "The worst AG in US history".
