Arab Spring: Egypt, Libya and Syria

August 30, 2011
Eid Al Fitr 2011
written by: Sheila Quinn

Today I would like to give my own analysis of the Arab Spring in: Egypt,Libya and Syria. First of all I would like to mention that all of the uprisings in the Arab countries are popular uprisings of the people who are sick and tired of tyranny. They are genuine popular movements in which the global oligarchy is attempting to manipulate for its own agenda. But, I would like to say at this point- that these uprisings ,in sha' Allah, are from The Creator. They are, in sha' Allah, the beginning of an era in which all- I mean ALL- of the tyrants of The Islamic Nation will go down! All of the tyrants of The Islamic Nation will go down one by one- when The Creator wants, and how The Creator wants. Through this, in sha' Allah, the global oligarchy also will go down. If, indeed this is from The Creator- as I think it is- then the global oligarchy will not be able to do anything against it.
"The Unbelievers plot, and Allah also plots and the best of plotters is Allah". (Qur'an)
Anyone, who thinks that any of these uprisings were started by the oligarchy do not know what they are talking about. It disappoints me when I see articles- from websites that I trust- that insists that either the revolution in Libya and/or the protests in Syria are from the oligarchy. What idiocy.


EGYPT
The uprising in Egypt is not only against Mubarak, but also against those who supported, and encouraged Mubarak's tyranny against the people. From what I know about Egypt, most of the people of Egypt have a great deal of distrust not only for the Israeli State- but for the U.S. Government as well. Indeed, The Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt has tremendous support amongst the people of Egypt (just as The Muslim Brotherhood of Jordan has tremendous support amongst the people of Jordan).
The global oligarchy doesn't just have one plan- but it has many plans. It has Plan A,B,C.D.E...etc. If Plan A doesn't work, then it goes to Plan B. If Plan B doesn't work than it goes to Plan C, etc. For Egypt, its plan A was Mubarak.
But, I think its plan B is to support the uprising while involving its own people in the uprising. I see evidence of this through what I have observed happening in Egypt after Mubarak's fall. I have reason to think that both El Bareidi and Amr Moosa are the oligarchy's Plan B. Why do I say this? Well, for one thing just look at the two of them. El Bareidi is from the international organization which is involved in the regulation of atomic energy. The same organization that has compromised its credibility. As for Amr Moosa,he was the leader of The Arab League. During his leadership he said some good things, but his words were empty. Nothing was accomplished by The Arab League during his leadership; only empty words- and conferences that led to nothing.
There was some controversy in Egypt about the referendum that was taken. It was a referendum that was supported by The Muslim Brotherhood and passed by the Egyptian people. There are a few small parties which objected to the referendum, in spite of the fact, that it passed in an election. Also, originally, the Egyptian Military authority set the date for the elections in early fall. Yet, after objections from the supporters of El Bareidi and Amr Moosa the elections were delayed for a month. What were the objections? They were objections to the fact that The Muslim Brotherhood Of Egypt was very popular and would most likely win in an election. Indeed, The Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt is so popular that the global oligarchy made some moves toward supposedly befriending The Muslim Brotherhood (through Obama's administration's PR statements about maybe having a dialogue with it).

LIBYA

The revolution in Libya started with protests that spread and continued to spread through out the country. The Qaddafi regime immediately resorted to a violent crackdown on the protesters and continued in it. Hundreds of civilians were slaughtered.
At this point, I think that it is important to give a brief summary of the history of Libya. Libya is a country that is a combination of three provinces. Those three provinces were under the Khilafa until it was destroyed in World War One. Afterwards they became the colonies of Italy. It was after the war that a committee of representatives from all three provinces choose a leader. That leader was King Idris. It was under his leadership that Libya was recognized by The U.N. as a country. King Idris was in the process of making Libya an independent country when Qaddafi came and made a military coup against him. It is through this coup that Qaddafi came into power in Libya. He was never elected by the people. He wrote a book that he called "The Green Book" in which he claimed was equal to The Qur'an. For more than forty years he terrorized the people of Libya. During this time he campaigned against colonialism in Africa and against Zionism.
Through his campaigns he established a following of admirers and supporters. He also established a fund through the sale of oil. During his struggle against the freedom fighters of Libya he used both his popularity as an anti-colonialist, as well as, the funds that he gathered from the sale of oil to buy both mercenaries and weapons.
Although, The Transitional National Council of Libya obtained the help of NATO- and therefore, the help of the global oligarchy they (The freedom fighters of Libya) insisted on the unity of Libya and that there would not be any foreign boots on Libyan soil. Although NATO did help, it only helped through air support. It was through the bravery and dedication of the Libyan people to be a free people that the capital of Libya was finally liberated from Qaddafi's grip. NATO's help in its air support was a mercy from The Creator for the people of Libya.
"The Unbelievers plot, and Allah also plots and the best of plotters is Allah". (Qur'an)

SYRIA
The last country is Syria. Like Libya, the people of Syria have been terrorized by a regime -that they did not elect- for many, many years. It is a regime that the father established, and now his son is leading. It is a regime of a tiny group of individuals in Syria who are known as the Alawite. It has been mistakenly reported as being a sectarian struggle, but in fact the Alawite is a very small group that is terrorizing the great majority of citizens. Many of the members of the armed forces of Syria have been lied to, and probably still are being lied to. They are being told that they will be fighting against an armed insurrection- but then they find out that they are shooting at unarmed civilians. There are different reactions to this realization. Some of them speak up against it and then disappear. Others just accept it and do as they are told. While others leave the military without permission and head for Syria's border with Turkey. The protests are still continuing through out Syria. A number of cities are under siege. Journalists from other countries have been kicked out by the Assad regime. The slaughter continues, only The Creator knows when it will end. But, we as Muslims should know from the teachings of our faith that everyone has an appointment with death that can not be delayed or advanced and that those who die were meant to die when they did. This time is a difficult time for the Syrian people, it is a time of many tests -from The Creator- in faith,in trust and in submission to His Will.
There is no power, or might except with The God.

An Open Letter to The T.N.C. of Libya and My Muslim Brothers and Sisters of Libya

written by: Sheila Quinn

"And call in remembrance the favour of Allah unto you, and His Covenant, which He ratified with you, when ye said: 'We hear and we obey': and fear Allah, for Allah knoweth well the secrets of your hearts" (Qur'an: Sura Al Maida (chapter #5;ayah #7)
"O ye believe! stand out firmly for Allah, as witnesses to fair dealing, and let not the hatred of others to you make you swerve to wrong and depart from justice. Be just; that is next to Piety; and fear Allah. For Allah is well- acquainted with all that ye do." (Qur'an: Sura Al Maida (chapter #5;ayah #8)


My dear Muslim brothers and sisters of Libya,
As-salamu alaikum wa rahmatulahee wa barakatuhu. Ramadan Mubarak.
May Allah guide you and protect you.
Your continual struggle to fight against the tyranny of Qaddafi is being observed by many through out the world-including myself. His tyranny and your struggle against his tyranny is a test from Allah. It is a test in: iman (faith), tawakkil (trust in Allah) and saber (patience). May Allah help you in this test.
In this test you need to focus on a number of things, including: patience, shura (consulting with each other on how to proceed in your common struggle), and justice (in everything that you do be just, do not victimize innocent third parties in your struggle to free yourselves from Qaddafi's tyranny). Please remember that every human being has an appointment with death. You, your loved ones, as well as, Qaddafi have an appointment with death. Such an appointment can not be delayed, nor can it be advanced. Qaddafi will die when it is his time to die, not before and not after. In sha' Allah, with Allah's help you will have victory- but when Allah decides and how He decides. So be patient, my beloved brothers and sisters... be patient. Allah loves those who are patient.
Put your trust in Allah and seek help from Him. Seek His patronage. He is the only One who is able to bring you victory- no one else. In sha' Allah, He will bring victory to you at the best time. Again, I say...be patient in the tests that Allah is giving you.
As for the future, after your victory... you will continue to have tests. With governance there are very difficult tests. Governance is a very, very heavy trust from Allah. Please, know that and understand that. You will need to make Shura with other Muslims -from other Muslim countries- who fear Allah and who seek the pleasure of Allah. My suggestion is for you to make Shura with the leaders of The Muslim Brotherhood of Jordan, as well as, the leaders of The Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt. The leaders of both organizations are Mumineen (Believers) and Mootaqeen (those who are God fearing),in sha' Allah. All Muslim countries should apply Islamic Law in its entirety. But, because of the tremendous ignorance of Islam amongst Muslims and the Fitna (division)that exists amongst Muslims the process of application should be gradual- according to the degree of Islamic knowledge and Iman(Faith)that is within the population of the country. At the same time it should be understood by all Muslims -in all Muslim countries- that the implementation of Islamic Law in its entirety is obligatory. It is as obligatory on a Muslim community/society to implement Islamic Law -as it is obligatory for the individual Muslim to make Salat. Both are essential elements of The Islamic Faith.

My thoughts and my prayers are with you...

The Breeze Uprisings

by Ammaar ibn Walid
The Star Trail Lines Writer

The 7th of August 2011, Sunday
The 7th of Ramadan 1432

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful...

Is the world only in white and black? Do people intentionally follow a world of black and white and intentionally ignore any and every other possible option or choice? This news opinion of mine is my take on the uprisings this year so far.

It has views that might not have been mentioned before and it might also include some new thoughts and takes on the uprisings. Although there has been or there were attempts at massive peaceful protests elsewhere in Africa and Asia, I would be concentrating on my brethren in the Middle East.

When I mention the Middle East, I'm also mentioning North Africa as well. Breeze Uprisings is my own term for the uprisings that have taken place, and that are continuing to take place. Breeze Uprisings started with Tunisia.

It spread to Egypt. With Tunisia, the uprising led to its dictator fleeing in terror. With Egypt, the uprising led to its dictator stepping down and remaining in Egypt. So far those are the two dictators that have been ousted from Breeze Uprisings.

Even though the main purposes of the uprisings in Tunisia and Egypt have been accomplished, with their dictators being ousted, the uprising is far from over. The main reasons for the uprisings have been corruption, unemployment, poverty and suppression from the oppressive dictators.

The uprising is spread to most of the Middle East region. The uprising in Libya has led to a bloody Revolutionary War between the Transitional National Council, or National Transitional Council and the Dictator Gaddafi.

The uprising in Syria is mostly peaceful, but the oppression is upheld and continues there under the tyrant Bashar al-Assad and his Alawite minority. With the military under the grip of al-Assad, and with help from its ally Iran, the Syrian Armed Forces has led its oppression under invalid and false information.

The Tyrannical Syrian Regime knows well what it is facing, and it also knows it lies about what it is facing. With the lies that its state media spreads, that makes that media no different or even credible like mainstream media.

The uprising in Yemen continues with protests. There is also some major fighting between "loyalists" of Ali Saleh and a coalition of tribes I think. Similar to Libya and Syria, the uprising in Yemen has been bloody.

There have been reports about Mujahideen creating an Islamic Emirate in the south of Yemen and fighting for it, but I don't know how valid such information and news is. There were attempts of organizing protests in Arabia, but the Saudi tribe was able to handle it.

As for Bahrain, it is another nation that has an uprising that has turned bloody. Unlike other nations with uprisings in the region, Bahrain has more dimensions to it than one might realize.

With less than a million populace and a majority being Shiite, the protests in Bahrain became bloody when the ruling monarchy first attempted to quell it. When the tyrannical monarchy failed on its own, it called on its GCC neighbors to help it.

As such the "Arabian Shield" was formed, and troops from neighboring Arabia, Kuwait and the UAE, as well as others from other Muslim countries, were brought into Bahrain. The brutal bloody suppression of the uprising spared no one, and spread through all forms of society, with doctors, hospitals and mosques being attacked.

What I would like to term "mercenaries" were brought in Bahrain. They were from Muslim countries like Jordan, Yemen and Pakistan, including possible other countries that I'm unaware of.

The Jordanian terrorists... oh... excuse me... "armed forces" are only there to harass and torture the protesting Bahrainis. Such terrorists wouldn't be in Bahrain without the approval of the Jordanian government and indeed the Jordanian monarchy.

Because of arrogance and ignorance, such so-called "Sunnis" are abusing and harassing Shiites with a free hand. I wonder how such so-called Muslims would face their Creator when He questions them about what they have done in such times.

Would they respond: "We went there to torture and suppress the Shiites" or would they attempt to lie with some lame excuse? The U.S. has a fleet based in Bahrain. Because of that it isn't surprising that it hasn't been too critical of its "ally". Bahrain is just one nation that interests from different nations conflict with each other.

Syria is another. Just like the Global Oligarchy, Iran is two-faced as well. It supports the protests in Bahrain and condemns the suppression on the island, yet on the other hand it overtly and/or covertly supports the suppression of the protests in Syria.

If Iran was different, the Global Oligarchy would be proud of it and might want its help for global governance. I ask how different is Iran from the U.S. or Europe if it has such contradicting attitudes toward two different nations?

There is much arrogance and ignorance amongst both the mainstream media and independent media that is anti-New World Order. For the independent media that is anti-New World Order, it only sees black and white. There are protests in Syria...

Oh the Global Oligarchy must be behind it helping them. Let's support the "heroic" al-Assad leadership against such attempts! Such attitude shows how narrow-minded such people and media are. It just shows their true colors.

They aren't for freedom or justice. They are just against the Global Oligarchy, even if they would go against freedom and justice. There has been protests in other Middle Eastern countries like Algeria, Morocco, Sudan, Iraq and Oman.

Algeria has witnessed attempts at random protests. The problem that the Algerian dictatorship took advantage of though is the lack of unity amongst the protesters. Not to mention the division within the opposition who partly organized such protests.

As for Morocco such protests led to a referendum that "decreases" the monarchy's grip on the nation. It remains to be seen if the monarchy is sincere and would uphold the referendum, or if it is just a smokescreen for something else.

The Western Sahara needs to be put in that equation as well. What makes Morocco different from China, Russia, India, the U.S. or previous European countries that colonized weaker nations?

There has been people that have assumed and even mentioned like it was the truth and a fact that the war in Libya is a "civil war". This is completely invalid.

There is a difference between a civil war and revolutionary war. Like I mentioned earlier, the war in Libya is a revolutionary war. It remains to be seen how it would turn out. At first I supported the rebels of Libya. However when they called on the enemies of Islam, the U.S. and NATO, to help them, I started to not support them any more.

The rebels have requested help from abroad against Gaddafi, and indeed some Muslim countries have responded along with NATO. Not just relying on Allah only shows how immature the rebels of Libya are.

What decreased my "likeness" toward them was learning about some rebels going after -and executing- innocents in Libya. They were both either Libyan or immigrants from other African countries.

There are rumors in Libya that anyone who is black is a mercenary for Gaddafi. If such a person wasn't a mercenary yet, he might eventually become one. Such rumors are baseless and invalid. Such executions make the rebels no different from the dictator who they are fighting against.

I wouldn't say that NATO is an ally of the Libyan rebels, as it might seem to be to many people. I would say NATO is its own party seeking its own interests in Libya. Those who are anti-New World Order are aware of NATO's interests in Libya.

In such stuff such people are correct. NATO only seeks Libya as a base for more crude oil and also for it to be a base in Africa in general. The Transitional National Council is against foreign troops on its soil, but there might already be some foreign troops on its soil.

Either the Transitional National Council is aware of it and is ignoring it, or it is ignorant of it. The possibility of the council being aware of it and coordinating offensives and operations is also there as well.

Syria is an important nation that has much history. Any interference in Syria from outside would affect the entire world at once for sure. However Iran has been and is continuing to interfere in Syria, siding with al-Assad.

It isn't surprising as both are Shiite, and "allies" have to "stick together". There were some reports that the methods the Syrian Armed Forces use to go after protesters were similar to those used by Iran against its own protesters.

Some news sources have been speaking about Syria and post al-Assad era in Syria like it would be friendly toward the Zionists in Palestine. I'll make this clear. Whatever government appears in Syria in a post al-Assad time might be friendly with the west, but it would be worse toward the Zionists in Palestine.

Even though it is still occupied by foreign nations, Iraq has witnessed its own protests all over it, including Northern Iraq. It has also seen suppression from its own "security" forces as well.

That shows just how much credibility Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has with his people. Like the rest of Middle East protests and uprisings, the protests in Iraq are valid and for valid reasons, even perhaps more so than most other protests and uprisings.

The laughable "Kurdish" government of "Kurdistan Iraq" is no different from any other government. It has used its own "security" or militias against its own people. That shows how such a corrupt and greedy selfish government would turn out.

During special days, the Palestinians have had their own special "uprisings". On the 15th of May, which is Nakba for Palestine, Palestine's borders witnessed activity that it hasn't seen in decades.

One way or another Palestinians and pro-Palestinians rallied to try and attempt to return to Palestine. They were mostly successful on the north from Syria. There were rallies on the borders between Gaza and the rest of Palestine, and between Palestine and Jordan as well.

Unlike the north from Syria, Jordanian "security" forces pushed the rallies back, preventing any one from returning to Palestine. Propaganda surfaced from well known sources that Iran and al-Assad were behind what happened between the borders of Palestine and Syria.

However such propaganda is just an excuse and an attempt to distract the world about what the Zionists themselves are doing in Palestine. As for Jordan, there has been protests on a weekly basis. It has mostly been peaceful, but there has been some violence.

The violence was from the "security" forces of Jordan. I wrote an article about the protests in Jordan earlier, so I won't get too much into detail about the protests in Jordan. For now the protests are only calling for reforms, and not for the ousting of the Hashemite Monarchy.

Just like there are anti-government protests, there has been pro-monarchy rallies. They are smaller in number than the protests. King Abdullah II of Jordan should give such "loyalists" honorary membership in the Hashemite family for their "loyalty".

The Military Supreme Council in Egypt is governing Egypt for the current period until civilian elections are held. A few presidential candidates like Amr Moussa and El-Baradei are obviously puppets of the Global Oligarchy.

If either one of them win the presidency of Egypt, I think it would be considered a win for the Global Oligarchy as well. It would be through one of them, if one of them wins, that the Global Oligarchy would be able to manipulate Egypt one way or another.

It seems like the dictators of Libya, Syria and Yemen are competing against one another on who would be ousted next. None are eager to be the third to be ousted though. The fate of the dictators of Libya and Syria might end in blood and death.

Only the Creator knows for sure though. One way or another there are going to be countless martyrs in the countries that have spilled blood and continue to spill blood.

The role WikiLeaks has played in such uprisings for both Tunisia and Egypt is minor and small, but it still exists. To assume that WikiLeaks had a major role in both uprisings is both arrogance and ignorance.

It just shows how little WikiLeaks knows or understands the people of the Middle East.

There has been some uprisings outside the Middle East, with Spain being a major one. The protests in Spain are somewhat similar in some way, but different in others in comparison to the uprisings in the Middle East. The protests in Spain continue, and only Allah knows how it would turn out.

The Global Oligarchy has been seriously harmed and damaged by the wildfire that is burning in the Middle East. It has tried to control it, and even manipulate it to its own purposes. For the most part it has remained unsuccessful.

It tried to cool down the wildfire in the Middle East, but instead got burned, and so it is "siding" with the protests against what once were its allies. The Arabs are maturing and starting to stand and speak for themselves in massive waves.

Websites like twitter and Facebook have had their fair share in the uprisings. Organized hackers have also been more active during this time, but that is a different and separate issue from the uprisings.

In the end, whatever the outcome of the uprisings are, a question arises. Are you with justice and freedom or do you take sides in the uprisings? For me I think I've already made it clear what my answer is.
