Autumn Winds Are Coming
News:
The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by a quarter of a point on Wednesday, as expected, and indicated it would steadily lower borrowing costs for the remainder of the year. Chairman Jerome Powell described the move as a risk management cut in response to a weak labor market, but said the central bank was in no rush to ease monetary policy. (Al Jazeera Net, 09/18/2025)
Comment:
Jerome Powell's acknowledgment of the risks surrounding the US economy is an admission that inflation is not over and that this measure was taken to stimulate the labor market, which may not bode well for the US economy, especially if inflation returns. If inflation returns, and this can be read from other indicators, it will return with great force and its treatment will be difficult and may be impossible.
Jerome Powell deliberately appeared in his speech that the US economy is fine and that it is only a precautionary measure, and conveyed a message that the series of reductions will not continue in the future despite the pressures of President Trump, and this speech is what made the dollar rise, even slightly, or at least remain without a rapid collapse.
With this measure, Trump will not be satisfied with this exerted pressure, but will increase its pace and may push him to expedite the fabrication of a major regional war that may lead to a major global war, and this will help the American economy from several angles:
- The military industries and energy sectors benefit greatly.
- Increased military spending for all countries and government debts.
- Domestic consumption weakens due to the disruption of supply chains.
Thus, the dollar becomes a safe haven, even temporarily, and this is what happened during the First Gulf War in 1990-1991, and also in the Russia-Ukraine war in 2022 until now.
The one who will lose economically is the European Union, and it may crack internally due to high energy prices and military costs, and China will also be affected due to the high costs for it, especially energy imports, and the stagnation of its goods exports. In order for all this to succeed, the regional war must begin in the countries of the Middle East exclusively.
All of this will not save the American economy from financial collapse, but it may allow them to refine themselves in another form if the alternative does not appear, which must be from outside the womb of capitalism and does not belong to it at all.
Thus, the capitalist system is exposed very greatly, and its pillars have already collapsed. With the emergence of a new world order, the coup de grâce will be fired at it, killing it with no return at all, God willing. This world order that meets these specifications is the Islamic system, the system of justice and mercy.
Islam is inevitably coming and the whole world knows it, and it is enough that despite all this injustice and darkness, there is still a party calling for it, and it will not stop until it resumes the Islamic way of life, so O Muslims, hasten the march with Hizb ut-Tahrir and be a support for it, and O people of power and strength, be a help and supporters for it, for this is the time of the return of the Rightly Guided Caliphate that the Messenger of God ﷺ gave us glad tidings of, and God will perfect His light even if the disbelievers hate it: ﴿It is He who has sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth to manifest it over all religion, although the polytheists dislike it.﴾.
