Mubārak, Judge Edilwassif Baddiri !

𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙪𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙃𝙤𝙣. 𝙀𝙙𝙞𝙡𝙬𝙖𝙨𝙞𝙛 𝙏. 𝘽𝙖𝙙𝙙𝙞𝙧𝙞 𝙤𝙣 𝘽𝙚𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝘾𝙝𝙤𝙨𝙚𝙣
𝙖𝙨 𝙄𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙢 𝙋𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙋𝙝𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙥𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙚 𝙈𝙪𝙨𝙡𝙞𝙢 𝙅𝙪𝙙𝙜𝙚𝙨 𝘼𝙨𝙨𝙤𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Hon. Judge Edilwasif T. Baddiri on being selected as the Interim President of the newly established Philippine Muslim Judges Association (PMJA). Judge Baddiri, who currently serves as the Executive Judge of the Regional Trial Court (RTC) in Pasay City and Presiding Judge of Branch 115, RTC Pasay City, brings a wealth of experience and leadership to this pivotal role.

A distinguished alumnus of the Ateneo De Manila University School of Law, Judge Baddiri further honed his legal acumen by obtaining a Master's degree from Harvard University. His academic achievements are matched by his commitment to public service, particularly in his role as a Commissioner in the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos (NCMF). During his tenure at the NCMF, Judge Baddiri has been instrumental in empowering Muslim communities across the Philippines. His efforts have included organizing workshops, training paralegals within these communities, and overseeing the publication of the Muslim Paralegal Handbook—a vital resource for legal practitioners and community leaders alike.

The Supreme Court of the Philippines, through its En Banc Resolution dated July 30, 2024, officially recognized the formation of the PMJA, underscoring the importance of this organization in the legal landscape of the country. The PMJA will serve as a unified voice for Muslim judges, promoting the unique legal and cultural heritage of the Muslim community within the Philippine judiciary.

Judge Baddiri's selection as Interim President of the PMJA is a testament to the trust and confidence his colleagues have in his leadership. Under his guidance, the association is poised to make significant contributions to the judiciary and the broader legal community.

We also extend our warmest congratulations to the other interim officers of the PMJA:

Someone shuffled my papers: They found the culprit

South Africa: Adila Hassim ICJ gen**ide case against Isŕael

South Africa’s opening statement in the case of gen**ide at the ICJ against Israel. “The Palestinian people suffer for 75 years.”

South Africa: Adila Hassim ICJ gen**ide case against Isŕael

Can you imagine? This is Afghanistan. Just a few years ago, they were living under the barrage of U.S. military bombardment, and now Chinese solar energy companies have moved in! Once again, America bombs, China builds. @HelloWorld

@Motaz: Rafah *Motaz is a journalist in Gaza

“The missile fell into my sister’s stomach” A child survivor from Gaza says. @MuhammadSmiry

Palestinian baby rescued

@JewsforRacialandeconomicJustice: 1200 New Yorkers, led by @JewishElders, marched through midtown in silence today to mourn the thousands of Palestinian children killed in Gaza these past months, and to demand a permanent #CeasefireNOW.

Jewish Comedian supports Palestine

here’s what you can do to fight Israel’s propaganda machine @GuyChristensen

Never stop talking about Palestine. 2.3 million in Gaza, 3 million in the West Bank are depending on us. They cut the internet so they use esims which is not that many. Be their voice. It’s the least you can do. @HendFQ

@KimIversen: Israel is losing in a lot of ways...A lot of support for Israel was kind of a middle ground, low info person. Well, those people are all becoming more informed on this. It's impossible not to see that this genocide is being committed. - @LeeCamp

Does she look like a fighter to you?

Motaz: Reporting from Al-Nusairat refugee camp. A residential tower was targeted by an Israeli air strike. Many people were killed and injured including children and babies. Civil defense workers are still trying to rescue people and extract bodies from under the rubble. Horrific scene as usual

@GuyChristensen: do not speak about Palestine/Israel from a place of hate

NOW: We're shutting down Travis Air Force Base, the largest transport AF base in the U.S., which is actively arming Israel's genocide in Gaza. @De.ReneeLevant

Is there a man more beautiful than this. He lost everything, yet is going around Gaza comforting everyone. An angelic presence whom I hope will be reunited with his beloved Reem in Paradise. He says to the grieving woman “your loved ones have returned to our Lord who is more kind and loving than us.” I love this man so much. Even in the face of cruelty, he hasn’t lost his compassion or faith. @OmarSuleiman
