How do you destroy a society without war?
The blood of Arab citizens has become cheap in the eyes of the Arab leaders, and the images of the Palestinians murdered at the hands of the criminal Israeli occupation forces fill the television screens, but we take no action. That’s why bloodshed across the Arab world is now...

The return of Saudi Arabia and the UAE to America’s embrace is inevitable
Ever since Russia invaded Ukraine in February, many political analysts, especially in the Arab world, have predicted the demise of the unipolar world and the beginning of a multipolar political environment at the heart of which the US will be joined by Russia, China and India. I believe that...

Kais Saied and the forbidden love
Poet Qais Bin Al-Malouh loved his cousin Laila Al-Amriya and was called “Al-Majnoun” because of his intense love for her, especially after his uncle refused to let him marry her. He roamed the desert, flirting with her, singing for her and crying over her. He moved between the Levant...

The Israeli flag march and disappointment
When the Zionist usurpers, i.e. settlers, announced their intention to organise an Israeli flag march in Jerusalem, and the radical right-wing government gave them permission to do so on 29 May, and when the Palestinian resistance threatened and vowed that the consequences would be severe if the march went...

Ukraine Pays the Price for consolidating the Western Dominance
The Russian-Ukrainian war entered its fourth month, without achieving a decisive Russian victory that reinforces its goals of the invasion, which it announced at the beginning of the war, except for its control of some cities in the east of Ukraine. The most significant of which, of course, is...

Lebanon’s biggest challenge is real change, but it doesn’t seem to be on the agenda
Lebanon’s parliamentary election is being observed with great interest around the world due to the nature of the state and its important strategic location next to Israel. The presence of Hezbollah, one of Iran’s most important proxies in the region, is a key factor given its overwhelming influence in...

Shireen may be gone, but the truth remains: Israel is a brutal occupation state
For a quarter of a century, Shireen Abu Akleh held a microphone in her hand, the only weapon she had at her disposal, to tell the truth about the Israeli enemy that has usurped her homeland. She travelled all over occupied Palestine to expose Israel’s brutal crimes and occupation,...

The Palestinian Nakba didn’t end in 1948; it is ongoing
Israel has just celebrated what it calls Independence Day, which is based on the myth of national liberation from British colonialism and the establishment of an independent state dreamt about by successive generations of Jews. On this day every year, Israel flexes its military muscles and holds celebrations across...

Is it Erdogan who has changed, or the international balance?
Principles and national interests wrestle each other in the world of politics, regardless of the country involved. Which takes precedence depends on the circumstances at the time. “We have no lasting friends, no lasting enemies, only lasting interests,” said former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. This reflects the pragmatism of...

Without Zionist Arabs, Israel would not exist
In what was another slap in the face of the Palestinians and free people around the world, at a time when Israeli security forces are storming Al-Aqsa Mosque and attacking worshippers, the Egyptian authorities opened the Sinai Peninsula to thousands of Zionists so that they could celebrate Passover. The...

A new awakening shines from Jerusalem
A new awakening is shining from occupied Jerusalem. It started with the advent of the holy month of Ramadan and is removing the sense of despair that has descended upon the Muslim world. This new dawn brings hope and the certainty of ultimate victory. The Palestinians surprise me every year...

The collaborators and normalisers with Israel have been unmasked in the heart of the nation
The sound of normalisation in the Arab world has grown louder, with the normalising states rushing to the Israeli enemy. Those who have surrendered in the belief that they had no safe refuge also think that an Israeli state in our midst is inevitable, so even legitimate resistance is...

The shameful normalisers forget the legitimacy and glory of resistance
Since the normalisation train set off from Abu Dhabi, nearly two years ago, it has run over everything that hinders it, including the natural terrain that it cannot pass, of which it will not be able to reach the end. Those in charge or controlling it are ignorant of...

Destruction is the end of a nation that eats what it does not sow
Since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the whole world has been living in horror. Everyone is afraid of a global food crisis that may affect many regions of the world, since Russia and Ukraine are major sources of grain and wheat for many countries, especially our...

The inherent racism is clear when the world speaks of Ukraine
Perhaps the only good thing about the Russian invasion of Ukraine is that it has exposed the real, instinctively racist face of the West to the whole world. According to Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, for example: “Europe stands by those in need of protection....

No voice is louder than the voice of racism
“No voice is louder than the voice of battle,” was said by the Gamal Abdel Nasser regime after the June 1967 defeat to Israel. It was said to divert attention from the reprehensible defeat and silence the voices calling for freedom and democracy. Today this quote is being replaced during...

Western racism at its worst
They have always stressed the importance of human rights, the right of all people to live a free and dignified life, and equality among all human beings, but when it actually comes down to it, this mask has fallen, and the true face and hateful racism of Western states...

Russia's new Tsar corrects the course of the Bolshevik Revolution
The old Kremlin bear manipulated the world, and he and his media mocked the US, its politicians, intelligence and media who promote Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, claiming that it is a Hollywood movie. He stated that he would not invade Ukraine and hinted at withdrawing his troops from the...

Crimes of apartheid do not have a statute of limitations
There is no doubt that the report by Amnesty International issued earlier this month pleased all the free people of the world, not only the Palestinians, and gave us a little hope that there is still some conscience in the international institutions which are typically totally biased towards Israel...

Putin wants to turn the clock back and must be reined in
Since former KGB officer Vladimir Putin rose to power in Russia in 2000, he has dreamed of recreating the Soviet Union with its political and military influence, and rivalry with the US. He is working hard to return the independent former Soviet republics to Russia under his rule. To...

Bin Salman is taking Saudi Arabia back to the days of ignorance
Few Muslims, I imagine, would have wished for Saudi Arabia to “modernise” and reach the condition that it is in today in terms of changing its identity and culture. The land of the Two Holy Mosques in Makkah and Madinah is on its way to becoming a secular state,...

So Hariri has cried and left Lebanon’s politics, and the Shia suburbs cried with him
The Switzerland of the East with majestic mountains covered in green trees and snow; valleys running between them like white pearls, with rivers that dazzle the eyes and grab the hearts; magnificent legendary buildings and heritage; a country of science, culture, civilisation and urbanisation; a country of wealth, beauty...

The revolution was assassinated by its own people
We are about to commemorate the eleventh anniversary of the Egyptian revolution. If the coup which brought Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi to power was not staged in 2013, I believe that the Syrian revolution would have succeeded; who knows what the fate of the killer Bashar Al-Assad would then have...

January reminds us that the torch of freedom is still burning
As soon as the month of January comes upon us, the memories of the Arab Spring are revived, despite all the painful blows that followed as the collective conscience of the Arab people was confined. Nevertheless, the memories remain, and the revolution is part of our history. The uprisings that...
