In Europe and the U.S., the demonisation of the Muslim Brotherhood via “plots to take over the world” have already been normalised. Media articles, interviews, think tank publications, politicians, and even terrorism/extremism experts sing from the same hymn sheet. Syed Qutb has replaced Karl Marx as the ideologue behind the movement to take over the...
In 2011, mass movements of desperate ordinary people, trying to survive and calling for some basic needs and dignity, emerged in the Arab world. The Muslim Brotherhood, whilst not the instigators of the uprisings, benefited and emerged as the only group capable of organising an alternative to the status quo. The elders of the Brotherhood...
After 9/11, Western ideologues with the help of so-called experts and propagandists fine-tuned the global threat of Islam, using terms like “Islamist,” “terrorist,” and “extremist” which replaced “Islamic fundamentalism.” Legions of articles, books and media stories with “experts” propagated the threat of global terror and “Islamism.” Takeover terminology, highlighting the threat to European societies and...
After the collapse of Communism, a contemporary conspiracy theory began to take shape during the Reagan years in the U.S – the “Green Threat of Islam” (or Islamic fundamentalism) replaced the “Red Threat” of Communism. It helped that the U.S.’s favourite ruler in the Muslim world, the Shah of Iran, was toppled by religious Ayatollahs....
The Protocols of the Elders of Zion were a notorious antisemitic forgery used by antisemites as propaganda for anti-Jewish genocide. But Jahangir Mohammed, the director of the Ayaan Institute, argues similar conspiratorial theories about the Muslim Brotherhood could lead to an anti-Muslim genocide. History often repeats itself. So too does racism, bigotry, and hatred. At the...
Prophet (SAW) and his companions entered Madinah to seek support. By the end of his 10 year rule, he had created a political order that would change the world forever.
A once proud civilisation is in crisis, divided into 53 Muslim majority nations states. Seemingly powerless permanently dependent on the West.
Clerics in Saudi Arabia and UAE have declared the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist and Islamically deviant group. Of course they have done this at the behest of rulers or monarchs. In the year 2020, Muslims scholars are still discussing the rights of rulers and families to rule forever, and for the masses to obey them....
In 1981 Israel bombed Iraq’s nuclear energy facilities. Later after the first Gulf War, Iraq agreed to UN inspections of its embryonic nuclear facilitates. During the second Gulf War the UN inspectors played a dual game, not saying outright that Iraq had no “weapons of mass destruction” but not ruling them out. Giving the West...
The killing of a nuclear scientist in Iran, an innocent civilian, is an act of terrorism, as it would be anywhere else. A few have been killed in Iran. Imagine the outrage there would be if Muslim countries ordered the killing of European scientists, considering them to be a threat. After all they are producing...
