Dr Franklin Lamb joined us on Radio Islam this morning, Speaking to Mufti Yusuf Moosagie about the ISIL advance in the region.<\/p>\n
When asked about the lack of real Arab or US action against them:<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Arab league is basically impotent, old fashioned. \u00a0They just don\u2019t have the ability \u2026and How long would it take to train and setup another force?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
Also the Americans said they are making progress\u2026 THEY ARE NOT MAKING PROGRESS!<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
The UN could act, I guess there is some movement, and chapter 7 allows use of force, but It \u00a0is not so easy. I think they\u2019ll only pass a resolution.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
I don\u2019t think the UN has the capacity to do anything else.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
On the challenges of facing an entity like Isis\/ISIL :<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
ISIL Is an idea , how do you fight that ?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

On Palmyra\u2019s and Western Obsession with the ruins rather than Syrian Lives :<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Every day innocent are dying, so many may ask what is the big deal with these ruins? Well the attraction is that we have \u00a0connection with our cultural heritage past<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
We might not be archaeologist but we have an attachment to history.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
Apart of who we are lies in historic sites, so by losing them we lose our history.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
Also, before the war, It was the 3rd<\/sup>\u00a0most lucrative tourism sight in Syria<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n a terrible loss to let them be destroyed.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n ON Israel and how Eretz Israel ( From the Nile to the Euphrates) seems to be falling into place (albeit controlled for now) by an unknown entity:<\/p>\n \u201cIsrael is parasitic so they will take advantage of the Isis induced situation in the region.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n There is no end in sight. Hard to predict the future, Zionist will be ever watchful<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n Israel is having their own problems to deal with Public opinion and\u00a0<\/i><\/b>BDS making grounds> Iraq is no more.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n Syria No more.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n Both countries will probably end up with 3 geographical almost nation states that will probably seek UN memnersghip at some point<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n Also Important to see what the Iranians do, and next week\u2019s agreement on the Nuclear file will be interesting .<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n ON Iran\u2019s growing influence and ON ISIL growth in Lebanon :<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cISIL gaining momentum in Lebanon but not as rapidly as in Syria and Iraq.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n Shia\/Sunni conflict , many Sunni\u2019s increasingly feeling Lebanon occupied by Iran through Hezbollah.\u00a0 It could open up another civil war , as Isis would grow and the Shia will not allow it.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n This sectarian conflict can go on for decades even.\u201d<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u00a0 By Ejaz Khan \u00a0 Dr Franklin Lamb joined us on Radio Islam this morning, Speaking to Mufti Yusuf Moosagie about the ISIL advance in the region.

Geographically, in future there will be reconfiguration.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
