What Does the Muslim World Really Want?

By Becky Garrison

…eyed felt that the 9/11 attacks were “completely” justified and viewed the United States unfavorably. Despite the media’s characterization of select mosques as breeding grounds for terrorism, none of these radicals cited their religion as the reason for justifying terrorist acts. Instead, their justifications for employing violence to bring about their ends were more in line with the views held by other political revolutionaries. While this film b…

Islamophobia v. Islamo-comedy

By Hafsa Kanjwal

…t what they fail to mention is that the Western governments, including the United States, support these dictators—oftentimes with military and economic aid. Muslims in Western societies, including America, are also targeted in the film. Apparently, some of them are trying to overthrow Western governments and establish an Islamic state. Last I checked, they were still trying to get through airport security. There is barely any engagement, in the fi…

In Gaza Siege, Atheist Author Sam Harris Finds Yet Another Opportunity to Disparage Islam

By Usaid Siddiqui

…well before 1880, “some of who had been there as long as any of the native Arabs.” Contrary to Harris, Chamseddine explains that, “Presenting the colonization of Palestine as being a religious rivalry …wipes away the existence of these multidimensional histories…including the cultural and intellectual dimensions, which coloured life for all those in Palestine” The chief evidence of this genocidal objective of the Palestinians/Muslims that Harris a…

Is Zionism No Longer Able to Offer Solutions to the Present Reality?

By Shaul Magid

…s to have true political autonomy in one state. Other theories of a Jewish-Arab confederation exist as well. Liberal Zionists have often mostly dismissed such ideas as “fantasy.” But one of Hartman’s contributions here is that two states may be just as fantastical. Liberal Zionism is no less utopian than progressive one-statism. Hartman’s alternative is to apply a new version of liberalism, a “Jewish liberal story,” to the present reality in a way…

Burying the Future: Youth Violence in Chicago

…te, or graffiti-marked loyalty. Consider the mortal modern day strife: Jew-Arab (the Holy Land), or Sunni-Shia (Iraq for example), or Protestant-Catholic (Northern Ireland for example), or competing secular economic paradigms like communist-capitalist (Vietnam, Korea, for examples), or tribal Hutu-Tutsi (Rwanda), or underground oil-no oil (Iraq), or views on human ownership and cheap labor (North and South), or urban struggle for abandoned storefr…

Patriot Pastors Cited for Sedition

By Martin E. Marty

…ecause in this long, long war suspicion is raised again, this time against Arab-Americans, profiled potential terrorists, anyone and anything Muslim. If we would learn from history, we might have fewer instances of harassment and embarrassment shown to those who do not appear to be quite like “us”, the patriots, who are inconveniencing ourselves so much—tell us how!—to “win” the war against terror. But I don’t want to conclude that way. Noticing h…

Here’s What to Read on Syria and Egypt

By Haroon Moghul

…t the London Review of Books recently published two pieces that are exceptional. The first is Hugh Roberts’ essay on Egypt, The Revolution That Wasn’t, which I’m now reading a second time. Meanwhile, on their blog, Adam Shatz describes the (un)surprising convergence of Israel and Saudi Arabia, both of which are concerned by Arab populism, Islamist mass movements, and Iranian policies and practices. (The odd country out here, which gets no mention,…

Beinart’s Indictment And The Evangelical Right

By Sarah Posner

…nority rights.” The Conference of Presidents declares that “Israel and the United States share political, moral and intellectual values including democracy, freedom, security and peace.” These groups would never say, as do some in Netanyahu’s coalition, that Israeli Arabs don’t deserve full citizenship and West Bank Palestinians don’t deserve human rights. But in practice, by defending virtually anything any Israeli government does, they make them…

Toward a More Inclusive Islam

By Hussein Rashid

…oundup about the struggle to recognize marginalized pro-LGBT voices in the Arab world, reminds us that while religious voices are typically the loudest in denying human dignity, religions are not homogeneous. Here in the US, meanwhile, much of the post-Obgergefell v. Hodges opposition is framed as a religious concern, though it’s seldom noted there have been deep, ongoing debates about inclusion in American Muslim communities for years. Globally,…

…died, 1,500 of which were civilians. Near the end of the conflict, Wiesel promoted an advertisement praising Israel which ran in The New York Times, Washington Post, and Wall Street Journal. In it, Wiesel writes, “What we are suffering through today is not a battle of Jew versus Arab or Israeli versus Palestinian. Rather, it is a battle between those who celebrate life and those who champion death. It is a battle of civilization versus barbarism….
