Wittgenstein and the Silent Death of Philosophy

When surveying the landscape of modern Western philosophy, two names often tend to stand out: Martin Heidegger and Ludwig Wittgenstein. Both were German-speaking thinkers, though they emerged from different cultural and historical contexts—Heidegger from the German Empire (later associated with what some scholars call “intellectual antisemitism”) and Wittgenstein from the Austro-Hungarian Empire (with a family […]

The Makkah Charter: Creating a False Islam to Please Israel

Madkhalism is the secret arm of Gulf governments like Saudi and the UAE. It operates as a tool to protect the corrupt royal families from any and all criticism. This also means that if these Muslim rulers are working to normalize relations with Israel and are partaking in progressing the Greater Israel Project, then inevitably […]

Yahya Michot (1952–2025): Remembering a European Muslim Academic

I learned relatively late, just a month or so ago, that Yahya Michot had returned to his Creator the day after ‘Id al-Fitr. Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un.

David Horowitz: Understanding Zionist Networking Through Ben Shapiro’s Mentor

David Horowitz (1939–2025) had passed away just a few weeks ago. While he might not exactly be a household name, Horowitz was one of the key architects of what came to be known as “counter-jihad activism.” This is a movement that brought together neoconservative intellectuals who, in the wake of 9/11, formulated the idea of […]

Dancing for the Devil: UAE’s Shameless Trillion-Dollar Deal with Trump

In the latest episode of Gulf countries shamelessly selling out and kneeling before their Western overlords, the UAE has pledged $1.4 trillion—yes, you read that right, $1.4 trillion—to the United States of America. This is an all-time new low, even for the UAE: The United Arab Emirates has committed to a 10-year, $1.4 trillion investment […]

The Need for Speed: Islam and Patience Against the Rush of Modernity

The current era that we find ourselves in is one marked by an unrelenting drive for speed and immediacy, rooted in a broader capitalist emphasis on innovation, often expressed through the logic of “creative destruction.” The Perils of Speed From communication to consumerism, the demand for ever-greater efficiency has been woven deeply into the fabric […]

Exporting Hindutva: How the BJP Is Lobbying Its Agenda in the U.S.

Introduction India’s ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is no longer just a regional political force. It has become a global ideological exporter, working systematically to advance its Hindutva agenda well beyond Indian borders—particularly in the United States. This expansion isn’t just soft diplomacy or diaspora engagement. It is a calculated effort to reframe international discourse, […]

Reclaiming the Legacy of Islamic Governance: Nizam al-Mulk vs. Machiavelli

Introduction: A Crisis of Political Imagination Many Muslims today believe that Islamic governance is no longer realistic. They see the failures of modern Muslim states and assume our tradition has no answers. So they turn instead to the Western models of liberal democracy, realism, or secular authoritarianism. This shift is often unconscious. It’s been shaped […]

India vs. Pakistan Ceasefire: Contextualizing India’s Failures

Those who have been following the recent India-Pakistan conflict will be aware that it is now widely known that the two nations have reached a U.S.-brokered “agreement.” Prominent Indian analysts, including geostrategist Brahma Chellaney, have characterized this outcome as a failure for India, arguing that its perceived military superiority failed to achieve any sort of […]

The White Man’s Burden: An Overview

During the colonial era, Western liberal states established vast empires encompassing much of the Muslim world. These powers developed systematic methods of governance specifically tailored for Muslim populations—methods that, in many ways, persist today in the postcolonial context. Contrary to the conventional perception that liberalism opposes imperialism, ethnocentrism, and racism, the historical policies of liberal […]
