Meaningless. Taqiyyah.
“Taqiyya is an Islamic practice of concealing or disguising one’s religious beliefs and practices to protect oneself, one’s family, or community. The word “taqiyya” comes from Arabic words meaning “piety” and “fear of God”.
Taqiyya is a fundamental belief in Shi’a Islam, and is based on the actions of the prophet Muhammad and the fourth caliph, Ali. However, Sunni scholars view taqiyya as a form of deception and hypocrisy.
Taqiyya is generally practiced when one’s life or property is threatened. It can involve denying one’s faith or even committing blasphemous acts to deceive others. “

“Russia says Putin, Iran’s Pezeshkian will sign strategic partnership pact on Jan. 17”
Thanks for posting - a PERFECT EXAMPLE of the fallout from needlessly making Russia an enemy of the US, although the REAL DAMAGE is the China/Russia Axis that our Neocon idiots created. And all for what? Starting the Neocon War in Ukraine just to make Russia larger and more prosperous than it already is. If that were the goal, why not simply send them aid?
I have said before that Russia has never really joined Western Civilization. Scratch a Russian and a Mongol bleeds.
Yet, for some reason, you think we have the moral high ground.
You're a joke, Marcus.
