        Experiences of Political Islam in the Corridors of Modern State

        by Group of Researchers

        The study aims to preview the governance experiences of Islamists in the modern era, indicate the extent of their success or failure, and attempt to discover the real fundamentals that assisted their establishment and the real factors that led to their failure. Further, it attempts to reveal their various influences on societies’ systems and how they have been affected by global modernity and the extent of their influence on it. The study also seeks to discover the temporal and spatial contexts for the emergence of the various Islamists’ governance experiences in the modern era and to reliably determine the causes and factors that led to their rise and failure. It moreover seeks to reveal the essence of the practices of modern political, social and institutional experiences of Islamic governance and how close or far they really are from theoretical standards, ideas and perceptions. Furthermore, it attempts to evaluate their institutional performance, know the interactions (containment and collision) between the political perception with religious reference and Western and Arab nationalist perceptions. It finally analyzes the level of interaction of Arab regimes with such experiences in terms of vision, practices, discourse, and the Western position towards them to benefit from the obstacles to success and factors of failure of each experience under consideration at either the regional level or the national level as a whole. Another objective is to use their societal influences and institutional production in building a theoretical framework and a knowledge model that can play its role in developing a vision with social and economic dimensions worthy of application. The most prominent experiences discussed by the project are: Khomeinism in Iran, Erbakan and Justice and Development in Turkey, the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Al-Nahda in Tunisia, Al-Turabi in Sudan, House of Saud in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Justice and Development in Morocco, the National Liberation Front in Algeria, the Bolkiah in the Sultanate of Brunei,  Hamas in Palestine, Begovic in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Zia-ul-Haq in Pakistan, the Taliban in Afghanistan, the Islamic Emirate in India, Islamic Courts in Somalia, Tuaregs and Ansar Dine in Mali, and Boko Haram in Nigeria.

        The Jewish National Fund (JNF) and its Role in the Zionist Movement in Palestine (1901: 1948)

        by Ilham Shamaly (Dr.)

        The establishment of the Jewish National Fund (JNF) in 1901 has been a turning point in the history of the Zionist movement. It played a prominent role in serving the Zionist project, as it was the most important Zionist institution and the cornerstone of the Jewish national home project. This study - which is originally a PhD thesis discussed in Modern History major at Ain Shams University - sought to search for the role played by the JNF as a Zionist institution that emerged from the Zionist organization and played an important role in seizing the lands of Palestine from 1901 until 1948. Whereas through the Mandate Government's embrace of the Zionist project, it was able to seize parts of the land of Palestine and establish settlements on it to receive Zionist immigrants from all over the world. The JNF was provided with all the British procedures and legislations that paved the way for establishing the Zionist entity on the land of Palestine. The JNF launched the Zionist activity from the stage of Zionist ideas and visions to the stage of implementation and practical application of the principles that the Zionist movement called for including the occupation of land and work, which was  entirely applied and was the most important foundation that allowed it to tighten its control over the Palestinian land that it seizes. Those principles shown the real face of this usurping entity, which not only took the saying "a land without a people for a people without a land" as a slogan, but also worked to implement it in a racist and blatant manner, violating all religious, historical and legal rights of the Palestinian people in their land to cause a demographic imbalance in favor of the Zionist project. The Zionist propaganda carried out by the JNF among Jewish communities in the world countries had a significant role in allowing it continue its work. Donations, grants and financial loans arrived from Jewish governments, institutions and individuals who played an important role in covering its activities. Hence, Fund committees left no method of Collecting donations unless linked to the Torah to make Jews, wherever they are, donate to the JNF in application to religious beliefs that have been enshrined for some of them. Undoubtedly, the JNF worked to exploit its relations inside the United States to obtain significant financial support. The United States has been the largest donor to the JNF, which means that its role before 1948 was no less than the support that the Zionist project obtained from Britain. The JNF’s job has also been characterized by integration with the rest of the Zionist institutions within the Zionist organization. Zionist competition was to support immigration and settlement, regardless of the deep differences that were sidelined when it came to the common Zionist goal.

        QATAR PAPERS

        HOW DOHA FINANCES THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD IN EUROPE

        by Christian Chesnot / Georges Malbrunot

        Les « Qatar papers » révèlent la cartographie du régime en France et en Europe menée par Qatar Charity, l’ONG qatarie la plus puissante. Ces documents confidentiels, pour la première fois, détaillant la plupart des 140 projets de financement de mosquées, d’écoles et de centres islamiques, au profit d’associations aux Frères musulmans. Ils révèlent le salaire versé à Tariq Ramadan, une figure de l’islam politique que Doha paraine en dehors des ses frontières. A l’issue d’une enquête menée dans six pays européens et une dizaines de villes de France, les auteurs exposent la dissimulation, parfois la double langue, des associations musulmanes sur leur finance étranger, aisi que la politique de l’autruche suivre par de nombreux maires, par électoralisme ou ignorance. Ils soulignent l’absurdité de la situation : avec l’argent des fidèles seul comme subvention, commentez les mosquées de France pourrait-elles se priver de l’aide de l’étranger ? Un voyage dans les coulisses d’une ONG riche et opaque liée au sommet de l’Etat qatari, comme le sénateur par plusieurs membres de la famille régnante, l’Al Thani. https://librairie-averroes.com/fr/actualites/252-qatar-papers-how-doha-finances-the-muslim-brotherhood-in-europe-9782914057004.html

        DARK AGENDA

        The War to Destroy Christian America

        by David Horowitz

        "Read this disturbing but vital book."— Tucker Carlson “One of the most intellectually compelling and rational defenses of Christianity’s role in America."— Gov Mike Huckabee "Exposes the intolerance of many atheists toward those who believe in God. As a Jewish agnostic, I think it is imperative that disbelievers not demonize believers and that believers not demonize disbelievers." — Alan Dershowitz DARK AGENDA is an extraordinary look into the left’s calculated efforts to create a godless, heathen American society — and how these efforts must be stopped. And it is written by David Horowitz, a Jew. A New York Times bestselling author and leading conservative thinker, Horowitz warns that the rising attacks on Christians and their beliefs threaten all Americans — including Jews like himself. The liberal establishment and their radical allies envision a new millennium in which Christianity is banished, Horowitz argues. He says that Judeo-Christian values are at the very root of America’s democracy. Kill off such values and all of our freedoms could perish. In Dark Agenda: The War to Destroy Christian America, Horowitz examines how our elites — increasingly secular and atheist — are pushing a radical agenda: How the left trashes Christian doctrines critical to the American Republic, much like radical Islam’s war on “infidel” cultures like ours. Why the left fights to keep prayer and religion out of public schools, and how those efforts fly in the face of Founding Father Thomas Jefferson’s intentions. How fanatical liberals helped create the religious right by targeting evangelicals and believing Catholics and other conservatives. How Barack Obama’s ultra-liberal agenda galvanized the anti-God, anti-religious left. The violent and shocking manifesto of Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger who advocated the use of dynamite to promote “revolutionary solidarity.” Filled with stories that demonstrate the mind-numbing reasons behind the secular Left’s smug disdain for Christianity, Horowitz traces the history of religious liberty from the Founding Fathers to now. He shows how the Founding Fathers put aside their own skepticisms about God and religion to write The Declaration of Independence. Today, he writes Donald Trump’s “genuine love for his country” has galvanized Christians to fight the secular war waged against them — as the president has become a lightning rod for the radical left. David Horowitz’s powerful new book brings vital insights into the war against Christianity and names the global radicals, leftist Democrats, and money-hungry fat cats of Hollywood and Wall Street responsible for it. Finally, a clear and sensible American voice — one that is not Christian but Jewish — stands up to the twisted rantings of those who want to tear down faith and bedrock of American values. In Dark Agenda: The War to Destroy Christian America, David Horowitz delivers an impassioned plea for the restoration of political sanity in America, a perspective that made America great by respecting the faiths of our fathers and mothers.

        Rechtspopulismus und Dschihad (Right-wing Populism and Jihad)

        Nautilus Flugschrift

        by Marc Thörner

        Similarities of western right-wing populists to radical Islamists are not merely coincidental – they share the same origin. “Neocolonialists!” – “Islamic Terrorists!”, these are the accusations with which the old and new right in the west and Islamists all over the world refer to each other. Apparently, right-wing populists and jihadists are sworn enemies. But if you take a look at the writings and authors that both movements refer to, you will find the same sources: Ernst Jünger, Martin Heidegger, Alexis Carrel. All three of them serve as reference not only for the New Right but also for the pioneers of radical Islam. Marc Thörner points out the common origin of these thoughts and their different but still related manifestations today: Both movements condemn secularism, liberalism and homosexuality, both commit to traditional social structures and values like religion, order and obedience, self-sacrifice and martyrdom, both fight individualism and rationalism. In Syria, radical Islamists and the political right already act like allies. Will they continue their mutual hostility in Europe or will they soon congregate here as well? For his research, Marc Thörner spoke to Alexander Gauland of German far right party AfD and travelled to the frontlines of Syrian civil war; he interviewed leading representatives of the Assad Regime, talked to Iranian writers, met Lebanese fascists and followers of Hisbollah as well as historians and Arabists in Europe.

        FINAL BATTLE

        The Next Election Could Be the Last

        by David Horowitz

        “Democrats have conducted a sustained assault on the spirit of compromise that binds the union together, and set the nation on the path to a one-party state.”“Nothing less than a handbook for the salvation of the United States of America.”—DENNIS PRAGER“Exposes the outrages perpetrated by the Biden administration and the Democratic Left.”—DINESH D’SOUZA“An ominous warning about what the future may hold if the present course is not reversed.”—PETER SCHWEIZERFINAL BATTLE exposes the real threat that Democrats pose to freedom. The rise of socialism and critical race theory, coupled with threats to the Electoral College and Senate, an independent judiciary, and the integrity of the electoral system, now threaten to destroy the traditions that bring Americans together — the heart of our democracy.Attacks on these quintessentially American customs codified by the Founding Fathers undermine the possibility of bipartisan solutions to common problems like viral pandemics and civil disorders. Americans now speak in different and antagonistic political languages, and the two parties are so polarized that the American way of life itself is at risk.In his devastating exposé of the Democrats’ nefarious goals, New York Times bestselling author David Horowitz reveals the hallmarks of their strategies, including:> The double standard in justice: Antifa and BLM versus January 6> Citizenship as disposable: granting noncitizens privileges like voting, welfare, and healthcare> So-called “cancel culture” and collusion in the deplatforming of conservative voices“Empires and states rise and fall while everybody is watching. Although the watchers may be surprised when the actual collapse occurs, with the hindsight provided by the end itself, everybody can see how it fell.”Read FINAL BATTLE before it’s too late!
