Why a US-Iran deal is unlikely in the near future

Waseem Shehzad

Jumada' al-Ula' 21, 14482026-11-01

Amid blood-curdling threats from Donald Trump and the indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu against Islamic Iran, efforts are still underway to find a diplomatic solution. Chances of a US-Iran deal are slim because the US and Israel have not been punished enough yet.

Israeli Elections about Zionist Theft of More Palestinian land and Ethnic Cleansing

Ayman Ahmed

Jumada' al-Ula' 21, 14482026-11-01

The Israeli election was about which war criminal can kill more Palestinians and steal more of their land. There was no discussion of peace, only more war. The election also showed, yet again, the deep divisions in the zionist snakepit.

Bani Saud on the Precipice: Geopolitical Vulnerability and Deep Internal Divisions

Muslim Mahmood

Jumada' al-Ula' 21, 14482026-11-01

Bani Saud rule may be nearing its end. The confluence of external challenges and deep internal divisions have created a situation that the Bani Saud are incapable of confronting. Their appeals to outsiders for help have also not borne fruit beyond symbolic gestures.

Economic Costs of Normalisation: Do Political Agreements Deliver Prosperity?

Omar Ahmed

Jumada' al-Ula' 21, 14482026-11-01

Normalization of relations between the illegitimate zionist entity and Arabian regimes, presented as an opportunity for economic propsperity, is in reality, a fraud. Neither the zionists warmongers nor their American backers have any intention of honoring any agreements.

Makkah Defense Pact and “Saudi Territorial Sovereignty”

Mohamed Ousman

Jumada' al-Ula' 21, 14482026-11-01

The Makkah defence pact, announced with such fanfare between Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Turkiye on August 7, is neither viable nor meant to defend ‘Saudi’ or Palestinian rights. The zionists control Saudi islands north Red Sea but this pact is not about liberating them.

The Muslim World and Multipolarity: Strategic Autonomy or New Dependency?

Kevin Barrett

Jumada' al-Ula' 21, 14482026-11-01

Multipolarity is much talked about these days. Where does West Asia, and the broader Muslim world, stand in this? If the Muslim world can coordinate their economies and militaries, and direct the collective weight of their power against the zionists, meaningful change is possible.

Aliyev’s Hijab Ban: The Internal Politics Behind the Crackdown

Ahmed Makhmoudov

Jumada' al-Ula' 21, 14482026-11-01

The Aliyev regime in Azerbaijan once again feels emboldened to impose a ban on hijab for girls and women. It is facing stiff resistance from the Islamic movement. Will the regime be forced to retreat, as it did the last time, or prevail in its anti-Islamic policy?

Traoré’s Foreign Policy, African Nationalism, Palestine and Islamic Political Thought

Mohamed Ousman

Jumada' al-Ula' 21, 14482026-11-01

Ibrahim Troare of Burkina Faso is a strong advocate of African nationalism. He has also at times presented himself as an Islamic revolutionary. Is nationalism part of Islam? Further, how does relations with the zionist entity fit into supporting the struggle of the Palestinian people?

Trump’s MAGA Morons

Askia Wejd

Jumada' al-Ula' 21, 14482026-11-01

The number of Americans who blindly follow Trump is alarming. For a crime committed by any other person, they insist he should go to jail but when it applies to Trump, they have a different standard. They don’t want to hear that Trump is a tax cheat, a liar and a rapist.

Who’s Afraid of “Shari‘ah Law”?

Kevin Barrett

Rabi' al-Thani 19, 14482026-10-01

The expression “Shari‘ah Law” is used by opportunistic politicians in the US to create fear of Muslims. There is no such thing as “Shari‘ah Law”. Shari‘ah means a path but these ignorant politicians would not know. Their business is fear-mongering.

From British agents to American puppets, Bani Saud now abandoned by Trump

Zafar Bangash

Rabi' al-Thani 19, 14482026-10-01

The Bani Saud erupted from the darkest crevices of the Najdi desert. They have not only distorted the teachings of Islam but were initially British agents and latter become American puppets. Now their American masters also seem to have abandoned them.

Limits of Firepower: Why the US Wins Battles but Loses Wars

Muslim Mahmood

Rabi' al-Thani 19, 14482026-10-01

Predatory powers like the US and zionist Israel, and before that Britain, France and Germany etc, always assumed that their preponderance of weapons will ensure them victory. History, however, has shown that that is a false assumption. America’s glaring failures are a clear example.

Can Muslim rulers be subservient to mushriks and still claim Islamic legitimacy?

Yusuf Dhia-Allah

Rabi' al-Thani 19, 14482026-10-01

The overwhelming majority of Muslim rulers, especially those in West Asia, are subservient to the imperialists and zionists. At the same time they wrap themselves in Islamic garb to hoodwink their subjects. Muslims are waking up to the reality of their true slave nature.

Betrayal of Palestine by the Left: Obama, Trudeau, Crobyn, Mandela and Sánchez

Mohamed Ousman

Rabi' al-Thani 19, 14482026-10-01

Some Muslims are taken in by western politicians’ criticism of zionist crimes against the Palestinians. A careful examination of the Left’s rhetoric reveals that they are wedded to the “two-state” solution, that essentially accepts Israel’s theft of Palestinian lands.

The Saudi-Pakistan-Türkiye military pact: Another paper tiger?

Omar Ahmed

Rabi' al-Thani 19, 14482026-10-01

The Saudi-Pakistan-Türkiye military pact confronted its first test in Yemen but it has not met the expectations of the Bani Saud. They were hoping this would deter the Ansar-Allah in Yemen from carrying out operations against the Saudis. It has not worked out.

Türkiye’s Regional Shifts From Justice to Strategic Transaction Convergence

Mohamed Ousman

Rabi' al-Thani 19, 14482026-10-01

Recep Tayip Erdogan of Türkiye has flip-flopped on policies despite his soaring rhetoric. This was as true of zionist Israel’s murder of Turkish citizens on the Mavi Marmara in May 2010 and Khashoggi’s murder in the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul. His policies are transactional in nature.

No Future for Pakistan Under the Heavy Boot of the Military

Zia Sarhadi

Rabi' al-Thani 19, 14482026-10-01

The unfortunate people of Pakistan have long suffered under the heavy boot of the military. Much worse, those who have served Pakistan well have been denounced by the thuggish generals as “traitors” because these sincere leaders have dared criticize the generals.

When European Elites Run Out of Answers, They Blame Muslims

Waseem Shehzad

Rabi' al-Thani 19, 14482026-10-01

Europe faces many economic and social problems. The rulers, far from addressing these issues, resort to crude propaganda against the Muslims and their symbols. Burqa, hijab and immigration are all hot-button issues but banning them will not solve Europe’s problems.

Is Another 9/11-Scale False Flag Possible as Trump and Netanyahu Get Desperate?

Kevin Barrett

Rabi' al-Awwal 19, 14482026-09-01

The war criminals Trump and Netanyahu’s failure in their illegal war on Iran has led the evil duo to desperation. It cannot be ruled out that they may stage another 911-type false flag operation and blame it on Iran to get the Americans’ support for continuation of the war.

What is the Turkiye-Saudi-Pakistan defence alliance all about?

Omar Ahmed

Rabi' al-Awwal 19, 14482026-09-01

The Turkiye-Saudi-Pakistan defence pact announced last month is viewed by observers differently. For some it is an alliance against zionist Israel (unlikely), for others, its target is the Yemeni Ansarallah and Islamic Iran (mor plausible). So far, there has been little action.
