Not to mention the crime of exploiting them, pushing them into wars. The world has criminalized the recruitment of children and has Established international and local charters, treaties and laws to protect children’s rights. However, (MHRD) highlights in this report the crime of recruitment of children by the Iran-backed Houthis, the ways and means of recruitment such as media and cultural mobilization that are widely and systematically practiced in schools, institutes, mosques and religious centers, as well as in towns and popular neighborhoods by what so called Tribal Sheikhs and supervisors affiliated with the Houthis. In addition to the Houthis exploitation of the living conditions the citizens suffered due to the conflict that has been going on in Yemen for years, they (Houthis) also exploited the summer centers in this process by employing humanitarian aid for the recruitment. The report touches upon children abducting, carrot and stick methods practiced by the Houthis in their areas of control. It also touches upon the negative effects, repercussions and risks to which child soldiers are exposed, in addition to clarifying the legal and human rights vision for this human crime, which is part of the Houthis behavior in destroying Yemen and its people. Data and information related to this human crime, are also included in the report, in addition to details, forms and testimonies of the victims› relatives regarding the recruitment of children by the Houthis, which threatens the future of an entire generation, might have negative interim and strategic repercussions. Names of the child recruitment network of Houthi leaders are also listed in the report, in addition to a number of statistics and analytical data for this crime, including: The numbers and geographical distribution of child victims, their age groups, lists of names, and the tasks assigned to these child soldiers during combat operations. The war is about to take out an entire generation in Yemen, since the global conscience does not act to stop the crime of child recruitment and end the war in the country, as 5A Issued By/ Moyyun Organization for Human Rights and Development (MHRD) Children, Not Guns long as the Houthi group is working at a high pace to support its fighting capabilities by opening dozens of child recruitment camps. Despite the varying estimates of the number of children who were recruited in national and international reports, the numbers remain estimates that do not reflect the true scale of the disaster that Yemeni children are exposed to. The UN 2017 report, estimated the number of children recruited by the Houthi group at about 1,500, while a report by the Associated Press stated that the Houthi group had recruited about 18,000 children by the end of 2018. As for the report issued by the Euro-Mediterranean Observatory and SAM in February 2021, it was stated that the Houthi group had recruited (10,333) Yemeni children since 2014. In September 2019, the Ministry of Human Rights in the Yemeni government published estimates indicating that the Houthi group had recruited more than 30,000 children since 2014. While MHRD documented ((by name and video)) the killing of 640 Yemeni children during the first six months of 2021, who were forced by the Houthi group to fight in its battles, and who were buried in funeral processions announced and broadcast through the official media of the Houthi group. The number of children killed in the battles of the group, who were not buried in official ceremonies and whose names were not published in the media, is estimated to be double the officially announced number. As for the wounded and injured of the child soldiers, their number exceeds (3,400), according to what was verified by the MHRD team from the records of the hospitalization departments in the capital Sana’a, Al Mahwit, Dhamar, Hodeidah, Hajjah, Ibb and Taiz, and from the statements of the group’s Wounded Care Institution. Statistics show that the total number of children who were killed in the battles of the Houthis are from (15) Yemeni governorates, in which children are still - in most - subjected to grave and continuous violations. The child victims are divided into three age groups as follows: The first age group: from (1012-) years old. The second: from (1314-). The third: from (1517-). Through an analysis of information and statistics on the number of children killed, we reached important results that enabled us to identify the governorates of Yemen in which children are subjected to grave violations from the reality of the number of 6A Issued By/ Moyyun Organization for Human Rights and Development (MHRD) Children, Not Guns children killed, which are in order as follows: Sana›a: It ranks first in the number of child soldiers victims, with a rate of (22.2%). Dhamar: It ranks second in the number of child soldiers victims, with a rate of (16.6%). Hajjah: It comes in third place in the number of child soldiers victims, at a rate of (13.3%). The Capital comes fourth in the number of child soldiers victims, with a rate of (10.3%). Ibb: It ranks fifth in the number of child soldiers victims, with a rate of (7.5%). Saada: It ranks sixth in the number of child soldiers, with a rate of (7.3%). MHRD›s team worked double in preparing this report, based on monitoring and documenting of field data and information, and analysis of videos and photos of the victims. It also worked on the daily monitoring and documenting of the media affiliated with the Houthi group, and the officially announced funerals and burials for the dead children, in addition to field work carried out by the team during the period from January 1, 2021 to June 1, 2021, including: Hearing a number of testimonies and interviews with a number of victims’ relatives, and those interested and concerned with defending children’s rights. In conclusion, the report includes a number of recommendations for combating the crime of child recruitment and the role of the international community. The Houthis on the shame list for violating children’s rights:- In 2012, Houthi leader AbdulMalik Al-Houthi met with the Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Children and Armed Conflict - the United Nations, Leila Zerrougui, and (he) pledged to work and promised to end the recruitment and the use of child soldiers, but the large number of victims of child soldiers recruited by the Houthis since 2014 until now, proved that his promises were definitely blatant lies. It was confirmed by United Nations on June 18, 2021 that the Houthi group is violating the rights of children in Yemen. The Secretary-General of the United Nations, Antonio Guterres, included the Houthi group on the blacklist of violating children’s rights. The UN report confirmed that the Houthis kill and maim more than (250) children during 2020. 7A Issued By/ Moyyun Organization for Human Rights and Development (MHRD) Children, Not Guns In a detailed report by the Yemeni researcher Abdu Ali Al-Hothifi, who specializes in documenting violations of Houthi recruitment of children, he documented (depending on Houthi media sources) the killing of (1410) children in 2020, provided with names, date and place of death and age, . Last February (2020), the Yemeni Network for Rights and Freedoms, documented 65,971 violations against Yemeni children during the past four years. Yet as shocking as these statistics are in these reports and other international reports, the violations against childhood have not been fully documented, as the Houthis have been recruiting children and pushing them into wars for many years, even since their six wars against the Yemeni State that erupted in June 2004.

Against this backdrop of international upheaval, the novel tells the story of the Akifs, a middle-class family that has taken refuge in Cairo’s historic and bustling Khan al-Khalili neighborhood. Believing that the German forces will never bomb such a famously religious part of the city, they seek safety among the crowded alleyways, busy cafés, and ancient mosques of the Khan, adjacent to the area where Mahfouz himself spent much of his young life. Through the eyes of Ahmad, the eldest Akif son and the novel’s central character, Mahfouz presents a richly textured vision of the Khan, drawing on his own memories to assemble a lively cast of characters whose world is framed by the sights, smells, and flavors of his childhood home. Naguib Mahfouz (1911–2006) was born in the crowded Cairo district of Gamaliya.

  • World Anthology for the Protocol for World Peace
    WORLD BIBLIOGRAPHIC INDEX: ALPHABETICAL (I) AND IN ORDER OF ACCESS (II) The collection of texts, from which the materials for the data base of The Protocol for World Peace were abstracted, was begun on January 1, 2000, and the finishing work on the final portion of this effort—the Four Governing Indices (World Table of Contents, World Authors A- Z, World Bibliography, World Archives)—was completed on Christmas Day, 2017. * In this bibliography, every effort has been made to discover for each source its card catalogue identification in the constituent libraries of Cornell University, which appears in each entry as a single-word English short-form of their names—OLIN, ASIA, URIS, AFRICANA, COX, ILR (International Labor Relations) etc.—printed prior to each catalogue number. Very occasionally the source is designated in the RARE collection, referring to the library housed in the Rare Book depository; even more occasionally the source is designated as an “Electronic Resource” (If the source edition actually used is not listed, the nearest English-language edition is listted; if there is no English edition, the closest non-English; if the work is entirely absent, but there is present something else by the author that has been collected, the citation “other stuff” will be seen.) In many cases, these catalogue entries are twinned, and the Cornell reference invariably follows the catalogue entry of the library where the source was originally discovered, thus: [ original citation | Cornell citation ]. * The collection was begun through the auspices of the Interlibrary Loan Department of the Southeast Steuben County Public Library in Corning, New York, and for the first year or so liberal use was made of the various public libraries affiliated in this public library system.

Berkat petunjuk Allah dan berkat bimbingan Rasulullah SAW kita dapat hidup selesa, aman, tenteram, tenang dan jauh dari mara bahaya dan mala petaka. Untuk mempertahankan kehidupan yang ma’ruf, normal, dan selesa dalam bimbingan Allah SWT marilah kita meningkatkan iman, taqwa, dan amal shalih sehingga kehidupan ini jauh dari kema’shiyatan dan kedhaliman serta dekat selalu dengan amalan shaliha. Pokok pangkal utama penyebab kehancuran sesuatu kaum dan bangsa dalam dunia yang sudah tercatat dalam sejarah adalah faktor keambrukan moral (akhlak), baik yang terjadi pada zaman Nabi Luth maupun pada zaman kehidupan hari ini. Sebagai salah satu solusi menghindari dari ancaman bala Allah dalam kehidupan ini semua kita harus menjaga dan memperbaiki akhlak sehingga berada pada posisi akhlak karimah.
