Qatar’s Defence Purchases; Myths and Reality. In recent weeks, claims have spread on social media suggesting that Qatar bought “fake” or “non-functional” defence systems from Western countries, wasting billions of dollars. Such posts often insinuate a conspiracy to sell substandard weapons to Muslim nations. A careful look at publicly available information tells a different story. Massive Defence Deals with the U.S. and U.K. Over the past decade, Qatar has invested heavily in its defence. It purchased Patriot missile batteries, radars, and other air-defence assets from the United States, as well as Typhoon and Hawk aircraft from the United Kingdom. These contracts were intended to modernise the country’s military capabilities amid regional tensions. The Raytheon/RTX Controversy In 2024, U.S. authorities announced that RTX (formerly Raytheon) had agreed to pay more than $950 million to settle charges of bribery, fraud, and “no-work” contracts linked to ...

Israel Must Not Provoke the Islamic World; A Call for Restraint and Respect for International Law The recent Israeli airstrike on Hamas leaders in Doha, Qatar, has sent shockwaves across the Middle East and beyond. For the first time, Israel struck inside a sovereign Gulf state—one that has served as a key mediator in ceasefire talks. This action not only jeopardizes ongoing negotiations but also raises grave questions about Israel’s respect for international law and regional stability. Under the United Nations Charter, no state may use force within another sovereign country without its consent, except in clear self-defense or with explicit Security Council authorization. Qatar did not authorize this strike. Nor was there any imminent attack emanating from its territory. By acting unilaterally, Israel has violated one of the core principles of the post-World War II international order: the territorial integrity and political independence of states. Beyond legality, the strategic co...

Palestine Oppression, Self-Interest, and the Silence of the Muslim World History today is being written in the blood and tears of Palestine. Entire neighborhoods in Gaza have turned into rubble, tens of thousands have been killed, and millions are displaced. Children are dying not only from bombs but also from hunger and disease. Yet, the question remains: why are the world’s most powerful states silent? And why are the 57 Muslim-majority nations unable to act beyond issuing statements? The Present Reality: Blood and Hunger In Gaza, Israeli bombardments have reduced cities to dust. Over a million people have been forced to leave their homes, and countless families are left without food, water, or medicine. United Nations agencies themselves admit that famine has taken hold in parts of Gaza. Still, the so-called “conscience of the world” remains asleep. Israel and Western Interests This tragedy is not merely a local conflict; it is a battle of interests. • Israel func...

China’s 80th Victory Parade; A New Global Leadership on Display Beijing, September 2025 – The 80th anniversary of China’s Victory Day parade was not just a commemoration of history but a deliberate showcase of shifting global power. The grand military display in Tiananmen Square brought together a select group of leaders on the central stage: Chinese President Xi Jinping, Russian President Vladimir Putin, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, and, most strikingly, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. This carefully crafted lineup conveyed a powerful message to the world: China is realigning its strategic priorities, and Pakistan is now considered a pivotal partner in its emerging global vision. The Symbolism of the Stage The presence of Shehbaz Sharif on the dais alongside Xi, Putin, and Kim marked a historic moment in Pakistan’s diplomatic journey. Unlike India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi—who was neither invited nor acknowledged—Shehbaz Sharif was honored as a central figure. Not o...
