Current Events

First post as a published author

So today I became a published author and it is with incredible gratitude that I had the opportunity to use this new status to sign an open letter condemning the Zionist and genocidal state of Israel's murder of more than 244 Palestinian journalists. The number has grown since the time signatures started being collected.

As a part of this...

Three quick thoughts

ContraPoints is a very successful creator of YouTube video essays that are critical of American politics and discourse from a progressive perspective. She has been silent on the genocide of the Palestinian people until about two weeks ago and while there are plenty of other commentators that have raked her comments over the coals. I want to pen my own thoughts down.

Also a Zio defended the concepts of ethno-states and I need to clarify my own thoughts there as well.

Finally AOC disappoints yet again.

Islamophobic attacks continue

Zohran Mamdani, Democratic Nominee for Mayor of New York City, has faced constant attacks targeting him for his faith since his campaign for Mayor started to see success.1

On the 2nd of July 2025, one day after Canada Day, a Muslim woman was swarmed in the city of Osahwa, her hijab pulled off of her as she was stomped in the head.2

Three Palestinian men were shot in Burlington Vermont for the sin of speaking Arabic and wearing keffiyehs, one of them will never walk again. 3

Six year old Wadea al-Fayoume was stabbed to death by his landlord in Plainfield Township, who yelled "You Muslims must die." 4

Happy Canada Day

Happy Canada Day everyone. Let's take the opportunity to talk about something our Prime Minister, Mark Carney said on CNN in late June 2025. He said, and I am paraphrasing slightly that we cannot have peace in the Middle East unless we have a 'Zionist, if you will, Palestinian state' that recognizes the right of Israel to 'not live in fear'.

This is so incredibly insane that I am left wondering what Canadian values even are anymore. Let's quickly analyze this.

Being Shia

Us Shia people are in the news a lot lately. What with the groups and countries that are directly resisting Israel outside of Palestine being Shia, and Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for Mayor of New York City being Shia as well. And since it's the start of the Islamic Month of Muharram, which is an incredibly important time for us. It's a good time to talk about what that means.
