Arab Rulers Shamelessly Defend the Presence of American Military Bases in the Gulf!
News:
Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the President of the State, expressed the UAE's rejection of any aggression that threatens the security and safety of Qatar. This came during a phone call he made with the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, a day after an Iranian attack targeted Al-Udeid Air Base. (Emirates71, 2025/06/25)
Comment:
One feels nauseous from the Muslim rulers' eagerness to please their masters in the West, as they justify their military presence in our countries (i.e., the occupation).
As for the alignment of the rulers of Qatar and the UAE with America, despite their subordination to Britain, it was explained in the political concepts book of Hizb ut-Tahrir; where the nature of the relationship between America on one hand, and the Arab rulers, the entity of the Jews, Britain, and the rest of the countries such as France on the other hand, in the Middle East region, was clarified, where it stated:
"Likewise, America has been able to introduce its influence intensively alongside British influence in all the Gulf states, Yemen, and Jordan. It has also been able to rival the British and French influence in the countries of North Africa and in Turkey. Thus, America is the real dominant power over the countries of the Middle East region, which number more than twenty-four countries, while Britain is forced to run after America to get some crumbs, and to make trouble for it from behind the scenes, without daring, as it used to be, to publicly present its own projects, competing with America's projects in the region. Thus, it can be said that the public conflict between the two countries ended in the late last century and until today, and turned into a method of participation and deals, with the coronation of America as the first leader of the region, the owner of the big deal, while Britain plays the role of the bridesmaid to remain in the spotlight. Britain's ability now, indeed the ability of the entire European Union, to impose solutions to the region is weak; therefore, we see Britain and the countries of the European Union picking up America's projects and moving in them. And Britain cannot, nor can the European Union, implement anything without an active role for America. However, it cannot be said that Britain's role in the region has ended, but that its (sense) of greatness, and that it is a major country, still exists, and that its political cunning has not been extinguished. Likewise, the rest of its agents are still (breathing), that is, Britain's power is still latent, moving from time to time.
As for France, it is still struggling to have some influence in Algeria, Tunisia, and Lebanon, due to the presence of a number of intellectuals with French culture in these countries, after it completely lost its influence in Morocco and Mauritania.
As for (Israel), it has arranged its policies with American interests, and has completely integrated into those interests, especially in the days of the neo-conservatives in the Bush Jr. administration, and rode the wave of defending it warmly and quickly, so America preserved its position as a major regional power in the region, and considered defending the existence of (Israel) as a defense of America itself, and remained the spoiled child whose father does not want to anger.
As for the rulers of the Arab countries, they have gone to extremes in serving America to the point of servitude, and thus lost what remained of their credibility with their peoples, so their masters belittled them, and went to extremes in humiliating them, and in demanding more concessions, and thus turned into easy-to-replace tools in the hands of their enemies, as happened with Saddam, and perhaps as will happen with others of them, and thus they have lost the support of their peoples, and remained in power thanks to the support of their masters, and under the mercy of these masters. So their situation became more difficult than before, because they became between two fires: the fire of their peoples, and the fire of their masters, so they became between the hammer of their peoples, and the anvil of their masters. Thus, the Middle East region is a region prone to explode at any moment, and has a great potential for the birth of a real Islamic state, the signs of its labor pains have become clearly visible." End of quote
Yes, the region is prone to explode again despite all of America's efforts to hold all the files of stopping or igniting the war between the Jews and the various parties, including Iran. That is because the Jews have not been able to integrate with the Muslim people of the region, and because the truth of the matter of the Jewish entity has become clear that it is a paper tiger without Western American support.
The real question that remains is: What must Muslims do to be freed from the shackles of servitude to the West and its direct occupation of our countries, even if it is hidden under cosmetic names? What must Muslims do to get rid of rulers who have usurped their authority, and to establish a true Islamic state?
Allah Almighty said: ﴿The building which they built will not cease to be a cause of doubt in their hearts, unless their hearts are torn to pieces. And Allah is Knowing and Wise.﴾.
