Is The Arab Time Capsule Out of Time?

Authoritarianism and Tainted Foods Changed the Arab Mindset
6 Dec 2025 – The US and Israel are aligned to divide, defeat and destroy the Arab states. America has just announced a 33 pages New Security Strategy to pursue and accomplish. It is a plan to belittle the European allies and make America great as a White Superpower. The Arab rulers imagining American security help breathe oxygen in a fool’s paradise. The former tribal agents turned kings, princes and queens wanted palaces and prosperity to enjoy life and nothing else. Blind terror and hatred of Arabs and Islam blends the American and Israeli conquest plans for “Greater Israel”, a catastrophic abnormality taking shape and form without any deterrence. Despite the so-called UN International Law and its Security Council’s Chartered assigned vigilance against aggression, crimes against humanity, genocide and forcible displacement of 2.5 million civilians are daily events.
Western mythologists describe the Arab authoritarian leaders as “camel jockeys” and others as moderate and friendly. Moderate Arabs are a food for after dinner hollow laughter in Western political circles. While Arab people and leaders are entrenched in the fraudulent phenomenon of oil-run prosperity, PM Netanyahu continued to attack,occupy and destabilize neighboring Lebanon, Syria and effective control over Gaza and occupied West Bank-Palestine. Phony Arab princes and kings talk of mediation, peace and Gaza free of Israeli occupation. Deceptive assertions negate the prevalent truth on the ground. If the Arab leaders would see the mirror, they would see the enemy. When cold blooded massacres are a daily event, foods and medicines are blocked and starvation becomes a weapon to dehumanize mankind, no conscientious leaders dare to stop the Israeli insanity as if Palestinians are not normal human beings. Does inhumanity and insanity have another definition? Editor Antonio Rosa (Transcend Media: 11/10/25), exposes the reality of the on-going genocide in Gaza and other parts of Palestine: “Genocide in Pictures: Worth a Trillion Words.”
The oil enriched Arab leaders lost the Islamic history of moral obligations, compassion and intellect and wanted to buy wisdom with wealth. The Western nations fed the Arabian societies with contaminated foods for a long time to change their thinking and behaviors and make them robotic machines to enjoy sports, pleasures and palaces. The Arab masses live in discontent and despair not knowing the reality of upcoming future – crimes and genocide by Israel enlarged to cover the Arabian Peninsula. “The World Wonders! Where are the Arab Leaders”,
When crimes against humanity and genocide in Gaza were in progress, Jennifer Lopaez’s musical concert enticed the Royal Saudi audience in obscenity and nudity. How ignorant and indifferent would you call the UAE rulers organizing the World Climate Conference to entertain the aggressors and killers of Gaza with $2B spent on performance? Israel bulldozed Rafah Crossing and Egyptians kept watching silently. You wonder what went wrong with the Arab leaders -are they humans or dead rituals on display. Israel needs conflicts for its survival and the USAID, and Netanyahu and Trump collaborate to make it happen. Bombing of Gaza, Syria and Lebanon go unabated as if all the Arab-Muslim leaders are mindless robots.
Crimes against Humanity and Global Community
Global community witnesses the on-going American supported Israeli war on Palestine as ethnic cleansing and genocide happening without any international legal accountability. Some Arab rulers paid billions of dollars to America to acquire fake sense of defense arrangements and security. America supplies the bomb and Israel drops it on innocent people in Gaza. Those dropping bombs on earth are not normal beings, they have no microscope to read their minds – human beings acting like wild animals as if Palestinians are not equal human beings and something else. “America-Israel War on Gaza a Prelude to Conquest of the Arab World.” https://www.uncommonthought.com/mtblog/archives/2024/01/05/america-israels-war-on-gaza-a-prelude-to-conquest-of-the-arab-world.php and
History never witnessed such a decadent culture of Arab moral, intellectual and political behavior. When would they learn from the living history to distinguish between foes and friends? For 2.5 millions people of Gaza there is nowhere to go, nowhere to find a place of safety and life protection. Every day is a killing day- bombardments of innocent civilians, places of worship, hospitals and UNRWA’s school shelters. The 21st century world of morality and humanity appears to be lost forever.
Is the 21st Century Age of Consciousness Coming to an End?
Gaza and West Bank are obliterated by Israeli war over 22 months of continued bombardments of civilian infrastructures. Why would they buy weapons worth $100B from the US as none of the Arabs have leadership or armies to fight. If the leading Arab leaders had capacity and moral-intellectual foresight, they should have challenged the insanity of war and protected the innocent masses of Gaza. The Arab leaders appear morally, intellectually and politically bankrupt as a scum floating on a torrent of naive puppets and discredited leaders. The Divine injunction is clear: “God does not change the condition of people what any people may have until they change whatever they themselves have.” (The Quran: 13:8).
God created you as human beings – the most intelligent creation on this planet with moral and intellectual capacity, obligations and accountability. If you defy the Laws of God, you will be held accountable like other aggressors in the past. You cannot pretend to think and behave like animals. Animals live and do not reflect on the imperatives of life whereas, we, the human beings cannot act like animals as we are supposed to be intelligent and responsible species on this Earth. At the edge of reason, the notion of evil leads to realization of evil and tyranny of war must be stopped by all means and those responsible for the genocide and crimes against humanity must be held accountable to restore the manifestation of peace, justice and security for all. Intelligent people, leaders and nations always readily accept advice: The followers of Moses – the generations of Israelite (progeny of Jacob) are reminded by God (The Quran 2: 84-85 ):
And remember, We took a Covenant from the Children of Israel (progeny of Jacob), Worship none but God; ….shed no blood amongst you, Nor displace people from homes: and Ye solemnly ratified, And to this ye can bear witness…. It was not lawful for you to banish another party, then it is only a part of the Book that ye believe in…. And on the Day of Judgment they shall be consigned to the most grievous penalty, For God is not unmindful what ye do.
