Let’s hope Erdogan is not too late for Syria this time
Between the start of the revolution on 18 March, 2011, and the country’s liberation on 8 December last year with the fall of the brutal Bashar Al-Assad regime, Syria has suffered from malicious conspiracies and the greed of countries near and far. As soon as the opposition entered Damascus...

Israel’s brutal aggression in Gaza continues with impunity
Somewhat predictably, Benjamin Netanyahu disregarded the ceasefire that he had agreed to, and refused to move to its second phase. The prime minister of the occupation state then blamed the Palestinians for not accepting his sudden preference to extend the first phase — meaning more hostages freed and no...

The Sudanese Army may have won the battle for Khartoum, but the battle for Sudan is ongoing
After months of fierce fighting, the Sudanese Army has succeeded in storming the Republican Palace in Khartoum, which had been occupied by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) since April last year as part of the paramilitary group’s failed coup attempt. The army also managed to liberate several other sovereign...

The Palestinian people are paying the price for the Arab nation’s survival
As usual, the Zionists have not kept to the terms of their signed agreements; they break their promises almost as soon as they make them. After reaching a ceasefire agreement that he and his far-right government had pushed for and for the sake of which they submitted to the...

The spirituality of Ramadan is being erased by obscene and seductive TV content
Ever since the communications revolution turned the world into a global village through satellites, Ramadan, the month of the Qur’an and spirituality, has become something entirely different in many homes. It has become a month to watch obscene television series and trivial programmes, which are part of a deliberate...

Al-Sharaa has to don his military fatigues to defeat the remnants of the Assad regime
The fourteenth anniversary of the Syrian revolution falls on 15 March. The butcher of Syria, Bashar Al-Assad, feared the uprising of the Syrian people across the country against him and his tyrannical regime. The Russian intervention saved him, otherwise he would have been ousted years ago. He preferred for...

An unprincipled bully is now basically ruling the world
The whole world is talking about the disagreement between US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the Oval Office on Friday. Arguably for the first time in US history, a president has broken diplomatic etiquette and insulted a head of state live on television. This sets...

Arab League Summit or Israeli Summit?
An emergency Arab League Summit was scheduled to be held in Cairo on 28 February to respond to Donald Trump’s proposal to displace the people of Gaza to Egypt and Jordan. The aim was to create a united Arab position against the liquidation of the Palestinian cause, which is...
-
Displacement is a distraction from the Zionist genocide in Gaza
The displacement of the Palestinians from Gaza and Donald Trump’s diabolical plan to take “ownership” of the Gaza Strip and turn it into the “Riviera of the Middle East” is the current media and political focus for many. This policy is systematic, not improvised. It is an example of...

Trump's imaginary riviera
There is no doubt that what the foolish thug Donald Trump said in his press conference with the indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu has sparked a lot of controversy. It is unbelievable that a US president could say explicitly that his country will seize the Gaza Strip and own...
-
Gaza defies Trump
There is no doubt that the sight of Palestinians returning on foot to Gaza City and the north of the enclave with their humble belongings amazed the world. The march was the best possible response to US President Donald Trump who wants to displace the people from Gaza to...

A revolution forgotten by its owners
Fourteen years have passed since the greatest revolution in Egypt’s modern history, the 25 January Revolution. However, its anniversary passed without notice, both on the official and popular level. It is understandable why the regime’s media did not celebrate it, as the regime hates and opposes the January Revolution,...
-
Gaza has triumphed
The Zionist entity’s submission to Hamas’s conditions to end the war and Benjamin Netanyahu’s forced signing of a ceasefire agreement would not have happened had it not been for the legendary steadfastness of the resistance in the long war of attrition. The resistance has thus triumphed in Gaza over...

A gang is ruling Lebanon
I first used this headline in a 2006 article I wrote for an Egyptian newspaper. Now, I am using it again after watching and following on television the Lebanese Parliament’s session to choose the president of the republic. The position has been vacant for almost two and a half...

Assad’s ouster has caused Arab nationalists to lose their balance
The fall of the tyrant Bashar Al-Assad and the liberation of Syria at the hands of a few faithful men within ten days continues to send shockwaves among secularists and Arab nationalists. They have not yet recovered nearly a month since Assad’s ouster, and are still shocked at the...

Will the new year really bring anything new?
As 2024 prepares to hand over to 2025, it leaves behind many pending conflicts and issues. Problems plague the Arab and Muslim world, largely inherited from previous years. Crises continue to develop and are passed down from one year to another. Dominating the headlines throughout 2024 was the Zionist enemy’s...

The Zionist Emirates are starting to play in Syria, so revolutionaries beware
Public squares across Syria have been filled with people raising the green flag of independence, from the Umayyad Mosque Square in Damascus to Daraa in the south, Aleppo, Hama and Homs in the north and Latakia on the coast. The Syrians have rejoiced in the success of their revolution...

The ouster of tyrant Assad paves the way for Palestine, not the other way round
Last Friday was memorable for millions of Syrians all over the world who celebrated the liberation of their land from the Assad dynasty. Many raised the original flag used in Syria after it was liberated from French occupation. The revolutionaries chose to use it 13 years ago and removed...

The people of Syria are the victors
It is a truly divine victory, and a great joy that no one could have imagined. The rapid developments in Syria over the past few days, and even hours, have seen major cities liberated, one after the other, including Damascus. The news agencies aren’t able to keep up with...

As predicted, the revolution in Syria has reignited
I am no fortune teller and, of course, I do not know the future — only God knows that — but I know how revolutions around the world have progressed through history, from their rise to their fall. “The Syrian revolution exposed the treachery and betrayal of those closest...

Are the ICC arrest warrants the beginning of the end for Zionism?
There is no doubt that the decision by the International Criminal Court to issue arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant is justified by legal and logical reasons, given the open war crimes and crimes against humanity still being committed in the Gaza Strip. There is also the...

The summit of shame
The late Iraqi poet Muthaffar Al-Nawab described Arab summits thus: “Summits, summits, summits, goats and sheep, with His Majesty the ram, His Highness the sheep, and a donkey, begins the session. Shame on all of those attending, from kings, sheikhs, and servants!” Sadly, he was not wrong in his description,...
-
Trump is back for revenge
The opinion polls misled the whole world with their deliberate and incorrect predictions that Kamala Harris was closer to the White House than her opponent, Donald Trump. The election results said otherwise, and Trump won, along with the Republicans in the House of Representatives and the Senate, who won...

The anniversary of the Balfour Declaration sees Gaza burning and collusion by Zionist Arab regimes
The 107th anniversary of infamous Balfour Declaration falls this year while Gaza continues being destroyed: residential buildings, government facilities, schools, hospitals and places of worship, Muslim and Christian, are all being targeted by the Israeli occupation state. The civilian infrastructure in the Gaza Strip has been decimated. The destruction...
