Egypt under the pharaoh General Abdel Fattah el-Sisi is a basket case but regional potentates are going to pump another $12 billion into its economy to shore it up. They are wasting their money. The thugs in uniform are professional thieves. Besides, Egypt has been pushed, unfortunately beyond recovery. The tyrants are clinging to each other in hopes of saving their own skins.

Is the Zionist State's nastiest politician about to be consigned to the dustbin of history? Opinion polls show that Netanyahu's ruling Likud-led coalition is trailing behind the Zionist Union alliance for the March 17 elections. Would the victory of the Labour-led coalition make any difference as far as the long-oppressed Palestinians are concerned?

Not only the US military but even the media including European have resorted to using drones. If the military drones incinerate people with hellfire missiles, the media drones will capture you in all your 'natural' glory. Nobody will be able to hide anymore; not even in their bedroom or bathroom. Get used to it: Big Brother is really watching you!

American senators are in the pocket of the Zionist lobby but they have just proved they are also dumb. In an attempt to "teach" the Iranian leadership how the US Constitution works, they made the preposterous claim that the senate "ratifies" treaties. It does not; only the president of the United State has the authority to ratify a treaty by signing it. Who elected these "geniuses" to the Senate?

It is open season on Muslims in the US. In the wake of the triple murder in White Chapel (NC) last month, a recent immigrant from Iraq was shot and killed in Dallas, TX as he watched his first snowflakes in life while his wife took photographs. Islamophobia is running rampant and no Muslim seems to be safe in America anymore.

The American spy agency, CIA, is going rogue, officially. It no longer feels the need to indulge in illegal acts covertly; the gloves are off and the whole world will now be under total surveillance. How long before everyone is under US lock down because some warmonger in Washington feels an individual, group or country poses a “threat” to US interests?

There are strong indications that Hamas-Iran relations have gone back to their old warmth. These had been marred by Hamas' negative attitude over the crisis in Syria. Now that it has become apparent that the conspiracy to overthrow Bashar al Asad's government has failed, Hamas has sobered up. This is a positive development.

The Saudi regime and its court system are run by primitive savages. This was proved yet again when a gang-rape victim was sentenced to 200 lashes and six-month jail term for speaking to the media against the court verdict. The rapists--seven men--got away lightly.

Zafar Bangash, Director of Contemporary Islamic Thought Institute, says Iranian Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, adopts a light and kind tone in his letter to the youth in the West with the aim of promoting the Islamic moderation and warning against the rise of extremism in the name of Islam.

أسهبنا في القسم الأول في تتبُّع الخلفية التاريخية للمصطلح واشتقاقاته، وفي هذا القسم نتتبع أثره، وأسباب استخدامه، لتكتمل الأطروحة. لقد عبَّر استخدام لفظة “إسلامي” ليس عن طاريء لغوي فحسب، ولا عن مُجرَّد أدلجة جعلت من الإسلام أداة لمحاربة المذاهب البشرية ومنافستها على أرضيّتها الوضعيّة؛ بل عبَّر عن تغيُّرٍ أعمق اعترى الحركة الإسلاميّة في التصوّر والاعتقاد. ما يُمكن تسميته ب”الأثر السلفي” أو “الأثر السعودي”. وعلى عكس ما يتوهَّم العلمانيون والمراقبون والباحثون الغربيون؛ فقد كان جوهر ذلك الأثر تشوُّهًا في الرؤية وتسطيحًا للتصوّر الإسلامي للجيل الذي عاش في السعودية وأكشاك الخليج، وتاجر فيها ومعها؛ إذ تم دمجه بهديه الظاهر في منظومة الاقتصاد الرأسمالي، ولو على يسار تلك المنظومة؛
