Metapolitics: From Wagner and the German Romantics to Hitler‎ - Page xxiiiby Peter Viereck - Philosophy - 2004 - 530 pages(Page xxii)One major source (one among many) for Arab nationalists is their study of Germans, especially Fichte (1767-1814)  [http://books.google.com/books?id=xJS44lXfKvYC&pg=PR22 ] (Page xxiii) and Herder (1744-1803)  , by founders of the Baath parties (Iraq, Syria) and of Arab anti-Westernism. For example, Sati al-Husri, father of pan-Arabism in the 1920s, was a devoted Fichte scholar. So was Sami al-Jundi, a founder of the Baath, who likewise admired Fichte and Hitler and misunderstood Nietzsche. Note the repeated word "race" and the inclusive "we"...

No Arab land is occupied by Israel Thursday, 8th January, 2009 By Ben Okiror THE current fighting in the Gaza Strip needs clarification for people to understand its genesis. I accept that the situation is complex, and that might explain why even the US President-elect, Barack Obama has so far opted to remain silent since the war broke out. However, I would like to bring out what seems to have been ignored and yet it is important for a balanced analysis of the conflict. Whereas on the surface it is the terrorist group, Hamas, fighting the only Jewish nation, Israel,...

All minorities living within the Arab world are under siege. Tunisian human rights activist Muhammad Bechri has traced this to the "twin fascisms" - his term - that dominate the Arab world, Islamism and pan-Arabism. The first promotes murderous intolerance of religious minorities. It helps explain why Christians are under siege across the Arab world and why Sudan enjoyed broad Arab support as it killed some two million non-Muslim blacks in the south of the country. Pan-Arabism translates into endorsement of murderous policies toward Muslim but non-Arab groups and accounts for Arab support for Saddam Hussein as he slaughtered 200,000...

How Turkey is Gradually Being Colonized American Chronicle ‎ Today´s Islam and Islamism: Indirect Colonization Indirect colonization can also take the form of acceptance of a theoretical simulacrum of a system that the indirectly colonized country and people consider as surely their own. This is precisely the case of the Islamic Republic of Iran; in fact, modern Islamism is not a system emanating out of the Cultural and Political Heritage of Islam. It is an Orientalist sub-system created in Western European (read mainly French and English) academic and Freemasonic ateliers that superimposes the religious element over the political only to...

Daily Darfur: A Little Propaganda with your Wheaties this Morning? Start your morning the right way with a dose of vehement propaganda: Check out this translation of an op-ed from a pro-government newspaper in Sudan... I'm not quite sure if this self-professed (Arab) expert on the American political system is threatening Obama himself, or saying that some other power will do it if he steps out of line...perhaps both? When speaking of "the lobbies," he is almost certainly harping on (ridiculous, racist, and absurd) prominent Sudanese anti-Semitic propaganda that accuses an "international Zionist conspiracy" of ruling the world. Scary stuff......

On Sunday I reported those Moderate Muslims in Dubai had refused Israeli Tennis Player Shahar Peer a Dubai visa. First let me congratulate The Tennis Channel for doing the right thing, the righteous thing, by refusing to air the matches. Human rights, not racism! Organizers of a women's tennis tournament said Tuesday that security fears were behind the decision to bar an Israeli player -- a move that could force another showdown when the men's play begins next week.

Arab Fascism In The Middle East: Saturday, 1. April 2006, 03:21:21 Arab Fascism: The More Things Change-The More They Stay The Same: Do you know that the Baath Party got it's roots from The Grand Mufti's involvement with Adolf Hitler, and his Nazi Party's efforts to exterminate the Jews from the face of the earth. So when Nazism was defeated in Germany by the allied forces during World War 11, the Grand Mufti fled to Egypt, and there he continued the Fascist Policy/Agenda to exterminate the Jews. Sadam Hussein was a dictator who was influenced by his uncle (Kiralla Tofa),...

Aramaeans Call Upon the Justness of the President-elect Barack Obama Dr. M. Shamsaddin Megalommatis published December 29, 2008 Aramaeans have been for millennia the moving force of vast empires, like the Achaemenidian Persian, the Arsacid Parthian, and the Sassanid Iranian empires, as well as the Islamic Caliphates, particularly the Abbassid empire of Baghdad. Great Central Asiatic empires like the Kushan and the Uighur empires owe their strength and socio-economic interconnectedness to the use of Aramaic writing and language that helped diffuse many, different backgrounds´ religions, notably Mithraism, Manichaeism, other Gnosticisms, Buddhism, and Nestorian Christianism. Due to their extensive islamization, the...

...In the following years and the pain still piercing, Bakr Sidqi, the Baghdadi army's chief responding to the zealous cry of the new pan-Arab fascists organised the cold blooded massacre of innocent Assyrians with the watchful eye of Imperial Britain, because they dared to ask for the recognition of the Assyrian nationality and the Assyrian cultural rights within the newly formed regime. Betrayed and denied by Imperial Britain, the Assyrian national uprising was suppressed and the Assyrian rights' movement was pigeonholed. For the next decades and under various successive regimes the Assyrians were known by their religion as 'Christians' until...

Good and Evil... We can't wish for Iraqis more national unity than they wish for themselves, nor can we impose it on them. It is their country that is in the balance. It is they who must put behind them the age-old tyranny of the Sunni Arabs, and their pan-Arabism which was but a cover for sectarian hegemony...

Hizbullah, also an Islamist group, has long been using the mixed language of Islam and Arabism, which is why Chuck Freund and I came up with the labels "Pan-Arabist Islam/ism" or "Arabo-centric Islam" (see also Matt Frost, who has an interest in this particular subject. Cf. Lee Smith's old article in Slate, and, Josh Landis' excellent post on the Baath and whether it's "secular"). In fact, speaking of Nasser, that's precisely the sort of image Hassan Nasrallah has been projecting: a Shiite Nasser. If you take a look at Avi Jorisch's Beacon of Hatred, you'll see in the accompanying DVD-Rom...

If Egypt wants to regain its lost prestige, it must not follow Iran Emile Hokayem, Political Editor Last Updated: December 09. 2008 9:24PM UAE / December 9. 2008 5:24PM GMT Middle Eastern politics have often a mild-mannered, almost obsequious quality in public, but less so behind closed doors, where interests and personalities often collide. This is no different from anywhere else in the world, except that Middle Eastern leaders face a disproportionate number of strategic and symbolic limitations that make them even more cautious in their public pronouncements. It only takes an accusation of being weak in support of the...

'Genocide in Darfur' (by Samuel Totten, Eric Markusen) Racist ideology plays an important part of the story, as it has in the history of other twentieth century genocides. And the psychology of "genocide" has become familiar through the sorry repetition of genocidal acts that the last century has witnessed. In 1987, Libya used the northwestern Darfur corner as a backdoor to attack Chad. It had equipped and sent out the so-called Arab legion, an Arab supremacist militia, to pursue Arab expansion in the mineral-rich sub-Saharan regions it bordered and to drive out the African tribes. Libya was not orchestrating a...

Towards another disaster By Aso Karim The Kurdish Globe Thursday, 04 December 2008, 02:04 EST Since the Iraqi State has been established under the hands of the English, only the Kurds asked for power-sharing, decentralization, and autonomy, and are now insisting on federalism, democracy, and accordance. The Arab elite see those demands of the Kurds as separatist and rebellion. In short, Kurds were the makers of change in Iraq, but they couldn't find a large front of change around themselves that can accept part of those demands. As a result they have faced big disasters.
