 If you don't know what is going on this is for you. This post is about : India's cry for help because of the biggest covid outbreak in the world. India is experiencing the worst covid outbreak in history, they have just hit 17 million cases, and have about 300k+ new cases every single day. New Delhi has recorded an equivalent of 1 death every 5 minutes because of covid.  India's healthcare system is overwhelmed at its max because of the main reason of relaxed protocol There is not enough hospital bed, oxygen, or ventilators. . The infections and death rates are 2-5x. Places like America are privileged enough to get the vaccine quickly, but less developed countries like India don't have this privilege.  Take the story of Rajeshwarie Devi : Devi was 58 and died on Sunday after waiting for 2 whole days to get uninterrupted oxygen, an ambulance, and a bed in a covid - 19 hospital.

 If you don't know what is going on this is for you. This post is about:  " Imran Khan criticized for rape 'victim blaming' "-BBC Pakistan's prime minister, Imran Khan, was in a live interview and was asked about what steps his government had taken to prevent sexual abuse.

This post is about : "French ban on full-face Islamic veil violates human rights " Muslims have been oppressed for years, but France has taken it too far. The French Senate just banned girls that are under the age of 18, along with mothers joining their kids on school trips from wearing hijabs to school. The French propose to ban girls under the age of 18 to wear a hijab, although the proposal still has to go through the national assembly, this ban in the first place is a complete violation of basic human rights as a whole.   Just to understand how bad this really is, western countries like France are forcing women to take off their hijab. The hijab is part of their culture and religion, it is how Muslims show modesty. This is not only a form of control it is a anti-Muslim hate. They are forcing minor girls (under the age of 18 makes you a minor) to become vulnerable and be forced to reveal their bodies against their wil
