A thief who kills the owner is still a thief and a murderer.
Microphones and Cameras: The potential for these devices to listen or watch, even passively, mirrors the omnipresent surveillance of the telescreens in 1984.

Teaching ethics is a fundamental aspect shared by many, if not all, religious traditions. Here's a look at how ethics are emphasized in various faiths:
Each tradition uniquely approaches ethics but shares the common goal of guiding followers towards moral behavior, impacting personal and communal life. This focus on ethics underlines religion's role in fostering moral and societal well-being.
The Quran outlines humanity's role as stewards or caretakers of the Earth, a concept deeply embedded in Islamic theology:
This concept of stewardship aligns with modern environmental ethics, emphasizing the role of humans as caretakers rather than owners of Earth, promoting sustainability, justice, and respect for all forms of life.
Darwin, Oil Dependency, and Fitness for Life:
Adaptation and Maladaptation: Darwin might view a species' over-reliance on a single resource like oil, to the point of environmental degradation, as a sign of maladaptation. In evolutionary terms, a species that degrades its own habitat to such an extent might not be "fit" for long-term survival. This echoes the principle of natural selection where species that cannot adapt to changing conditions might face extinction or significant reduction in population.
Survival of the Fittest: Darwin's concept of "survival of the fittest" isn't just about strength or aggression; it's about adaptability to environmental conditions. If humans are seen as creating conditions that are hostile to their own survival, this could be interpreted as a failure to adapt or evolve behaviorally or technologically in a sustainable manner.
Cultural Evolution: Beyond biological evolution, Darwin's ideas can also apply to cultural or societal evolution. Societies that fail to adjust their cultural practices or technologies in response to environmental feedback might be seen as less fit in the long run.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs calls for imposing deterrent international sanctions on the colonial settlement system
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates condemns the attacks of armed settler militias and their terrorist elements against Palestinian citizens, their vehicles, properties, homes and holy sites throughout the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, as well as their rampage on main roads, blocking them and paralyzing the movement of citizens and their freedom of movement to and from their towns and businesses, all in full view of the occupation army and its various arms and under their protection.
The Ministry views with great concern the settlers and their terrorist organizationsβ boasting about these brutal attacks and their deliberate public legitimacy supported by extremist circles in the occupation government. The Ministry also strongly condemns the policy of imposing collective punishment, installing more iron gates and closing them to Palestinian citizens, and the restrictions imposed by the occupation forces to dismember the West Bank, prevent the movement of citizens, and allow extremist settlers to violate the West Bank.
The Ministry has always warned the international community of the dangers of escalating settler attacks against Palestinian citizens. While it holds the Israeli government fully and directly responsible for these attacks, it also holds the international community responsible for its failure to stop them and force the occupying state and its arms to dismantle them and lift protection from them. It calls for the imposition of deterrent international sanctions on the entire colonial settlement system.
