Josh Paul served as a director within the US State Department under Biden. He was the first to resign in protest against America's policy of supplying lethal arms to Israel. He now argues that what is happening in Gaza is a stain on humanity. Josh tells me Gaza represents an irreversible moment for the so-called rules-based order.

Modern day autocrats turn to Sufi movements to justify their tyranny. With an emphasis on the personal and the spiritual, there is a tendency towards political quietism –dismissing the cries of Gaza – condoning normalisation and delegitimising struggles for liberation. Dr Shadee El-Masry, argues that historically, sufi movements have been at the fore of fighting for justice. Sufism produced illustrious anti-colonialism struggles and courageous warriors.

Dr Shadee El-Masry is the scholar in Residence and Director of Education and Community Affairs at the New Brunswick Islamic Center in New Jersey. He is also the founder and head of Safina Society—an institution dedicated to the cause of traditional Islamic education in the West.

Why has the West obsessed about Islam for centuries? European thinkers and philosophers have for long caricatured Islam and its key figures, painting a picture of the faith that persists today. Dr. Francesca Bocca-Aldaqre offers a thoughtful reflection of the place of Islam in European imagination over the past few centuries.

Dr. Francesca Bocca-Aldaqre holds a MSc in Neuro-Cognitive Psychology & a PhD in Systemic Neuroscience (both from Ludwig-Maximilians Universität Munich, Germany) and a Diploma in Islamic Psychology (Cambridge Muslim College). She works as a counsellor in Islamic Psychology worldwide. She authored several books in poetry as well as essays on the relationship between Western thought and Islam.

Here is Dr Francesca's profile if you wish to find out more about her:

The Nakba Never Ended.

The Nakba, the “Catastrophe”. It wasn’t just a moment in 1948 — it is a reality that has lived on for 77 years. It’s in the bulldozed homes of Gaza. It’s the children laying underneath the rubble. It’s in the olive trees ripped from the West Bank. It’s in the silence of classrooms where students are told not to speak the word “Nakba” out loud. It’s in every grave of a journalist, every mother’s scream, every child who’s asking– where is the world?

Today, we’re joined by none other than Leanne Mohammad, British Palestinian activist who ran as an independent candidate for Ilford North in the British general elections, came just 500 votes within toppling the current Health Secretary of Kier Starmer's cabinet. Tipped by some to be the next Prime Minister. We will be talking about the Nakbah of yesterday, and how the legacy of the Nakbah inspires us today.

So much of the anti-Palestine prejudice that dominates political and media framing comes from a well-calibrated campaign waged by opaque pro-zionist lobby groups. Dr Asim Qureishi is a human rights lawyer and research director for Cage International. Together with his team, he has diligently uncovered how these organisations operate and how they manage to influence the corridors of power.

The horrific murder of Abu Baker Cisse shocked the Muslim community in France. But his murderer was radicalised by an approach to Muslims that starts with politicians in grey suits, who have charged up the French population on a diet of islamophobic hate, competing with the pernicious right wing. For the French Muslim, it's relentless.

As elections come closer, Rayan Fresachi from Cage International talks to us about how the French state has conspired once again to demonise Muslims.
