"Without convincing Iran it will suffer severe consequences if it stays on its current path, there is little reason to hope for the success of diplomacy."

The War on Muslims' Future

By Hussein Aboubakr Mansour | January 14, 2022

By passing the “Combating International Islamophobia Act,” in the House, the American liberal political establishment has joined the war on Muslim societies, on their cultures, on their diversity, on their freedoms and most importantly, on their future. The legislation introduced by notorious antisemite and Islamist apologist Ilhan Omar brings the American foreign policy machine into one of the largest and most consequential civil wars in history: the war on the future of Islam. 

As in every high-stakes war, everything that can be used, is used: faith, religion, violence, sex, politics, social sciences, money, identity, democratic elections, etc. Naturally, every concept, term or tool of value is heavily mined and exploited in the struggle to control the future of a quarter of humanity. Islamists, paradoxically some of the most modernized Muslims, were quick to utilize the most advanced tools in the political toolbox, including the most sensitive and explosive socio-political issue for Western society: racism.

The United Nations Human Rights Council has voted to begin an ongoing, "independent" investigation into Israel’s conduct during the war that Hamas waged upon Israel last May. What this does to the Israeli population was not even mentioned in the resolution.

Possibly the most hostile, anti-Israel “inquiry” in U.N. history, this inquiry's mandate is to investigate “all alleged violations of international humanitarian law and all alleged violations and abuses of international human rights law leading up to and since April 13, 2021, in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and all underlying root causes of recurrent tensions, instability, and protraction of conflict, including systematic discrimination and repression based on national, ethnic, racial or religious identity.”

Unfortunately, this is likely to be a Kangaroo Court; the name "Hamas," or the fact that over 4,360 missiles rained down on Israel during the 11 days of conflict in May is not even mentioned in the resolution. And the illustrious members of the Human Rights Council include China, Russia, Cuba, Libya, Mauritania and Venezuela, none of which are bastions of human rights.

The consequence of this “inquiry” is an interminable assault on Israel which can be used in criminal legal proceedings, such as in the International Criminal Court, and will be used by those who want to further the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement to further isolate Israel from the community of nations.

Hear from one of the world’s pre-eminent legal scholars and experts on how to respond to these outrageous allegations with very far-reaching consequences.
