    World religions too often seem predicated on prejudice, when their true roots lie in compassion

  2. Breaking Israel’s Spell

    • 31 July 2009 • 0 comment

    The British Jewish community must move beyond the idea that being ‘loyal’ means placing Israeli policy is beyond criticism

  3. Beware of Cultural Imperialism

    • 30 July 2009 • 0 comment

    Deliberately or naively, cultural imperialism turns people from the colonies into mirror-images of their masters: They become little brown Englishmen, and little brown Europeans. They pose no threat to the status quo, in fact they help to keep things as they are. They reinforce the false notion of superiority of one human being over another, one cultural system over others…

  4. The defeat siren is sounding for Blair’s vainglorious jihad in Afghanistan

    • 29 July 2009 • 0 comment

    The take-hold-and-build strategy is mere pastiche imperialism. All wars end in talking, as must this US vendetta in Afghanistan

  6. Western hostiliy to Islam is stoked by double standards and distortion.

    • 21 July 2009 • 0 comment

    I began to wonder: Pattyn’s ideas about chastity as a measure of virtue are completely in line with Arab Muslim culture, but yet on French TV they deal with him politely because he is American, Christian and white. If an Arab or Muslim had said the same thing, he would have faced a barrage of accusations that he was backward, barbaric and contemptuous of women…

  7. Between Fame and Failure: The legacy of Michael Jackson

    • 17 July 2009 • 4 comments

    Michael was a tragic victim of his own success. This, because the success he found was in the realm of an ever-changing entertainment industry; Michael was neither always relevant nor always admired. His success was set on a shaky pedestal from where it and he was then knocked down…

  8. “Islamic” extremism: World attitudes 14 May 2007

    • 27 May 2009 • 0 comment

    Concerns over Islamic extremism, extensive in the West even before this month’s terrorist attacks in London, are shared to a considerable degree by the publics in several predominantly Muslim nations surveyed. Nearly three-quarters of Moroccans and roughly half of those in Pakistan, Turkey and Indonesia see Islamic extremism as a threat to their countries. At the same time, most Muslim publics are expressing less support for terrorism than in the past. Confidence in Osama bin Laden has declined markedly in some countries and fewer believe suicide bombings that target civilians are justified in the defense of Islam…

  10. Celebrating the Birth of the Prophet sws

    • 26 April 2009 • 6 comments

    This Prophet of light then became the central figure in the life of every Muslim. He taught them how to eat, drink, speak, walk and sleep. He taught them how to pray to their Lord and how to establish a spiritual link with Him. He taught them to respect each other, how to interact with people and how to honour mankind….
