Hagia Sophia and Erdogan’s stupidity!
Lebanon has reached a dead end. All its options are difficult, and the question arises: Who will save it? Will it be the international community? Or the Arab Gulf States? Or, say, Saudi Arabia? Or Iran? I do not think one of the parties mentioned will do so, according to the facts at the moment, and whoever will attempt to do so will fail.The international community is not prepared to act due to the economic circumstances following the coronavirus pandemic. It wants Lebanon to provide guarantees and carry out economic reforms.As to the Gulf states, led by Saudi Arabia, there are no indications, till now, of their desire to act, and this is a correct decision, especially now.As regards Iran, the cost is high, due to the Iranian circumstances themselves, the American sanctions, and the cost...

THE Turkish danger facing our region, from Syria to Libya through Iraq, is not represented only by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan as an individual, but his ideas and they are too complicated to be summed up in a short column as he is too ambitious for leadership, perhaps to the extent of being crazy.The story is that Erdogan’s course of action is based always on justifications, and this is normal as he needs a scheme that mobilizes him.

Erdogan does not pose danger, his ideas do
Cybercrime is an offensive or illegal act that is undertaken with a criminal motive to intentionally acquire financial gains, cause physical or mental harm, and defame a victim. Such activities exploit vulnerabilities in the use of the internet and computing systems to illicitly access or attack information and services.Recently, cyberspace has become a great treasure for illicit criminal activities due to the heavy global investments, online financial transactions, and monetary scale.

A major positive element of the confrontation between US President Donald Trump and the social media platforms, specifically Twitter, is that it has forced officials of social media companies to speak, to respond, and to face the storm.This is a good thing in the sense that it has exposed the nature of their thinking and political orientations because of the long-standing immunity for officials of these companies, who flaunted the dictum of “freedom of expression.”Truly, this is nothing but nonsense and naivety, as was evident, for example, from some of the tweets of Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter, who said in one of his tweets: “There is someone ultimately accountable for our actions as a company, and that’s me.
