  • “Muslim societies that are most repressive toward women…also have some of the highest pornography usage in the world." http://is.gd/LCf3lV #
  • When Zhu Yuanzhang overthrew the faltering Mongol dynasty in 1368 AD, he founded the Ming Dynasty, "Ming" meaning #brilliant or light #
  • The name Ming, meaning #brilliant reflects the Manichaean Ming Cult that catapulted the Dynasty to power. #
  • The Ming were the last Dynasty led by majority Han Chinese people. The Ming were overthrown & the Manchu-led Qing dynasty took over in 1644 #
  • The Manchu-led "northern barbarian" Qing Dynasty saw the fall of Imperial China; they ruled until 1911 when replaced by Republic of China #

  • Pakistan de facto sheltered #OBL to 1) keep the manhunt funding $$$ flowing and 2) it's always been in their interest to help the Taliban #
  • Pak's foreign policy is abt countering India: they want Taliban, anti-infidel forces to keep India from influencing Afgh. & surrounding them #
  • Look at Central Asia map, Pakistan DNW Afghanistan falling under India's sphere of influence, they'd be pinned in along every border! #
  • Pakistan's military and intel (ISI) has always seen Taliban, with their insane hatred of infidels, as a bulwark against India's influence. #
  • I'm sad to see the gorgeous Qing dynasty exhibits gone from @metmuseum they were incredible & very relevant to understanding #ChineseHistory #
