Why Are Arabs Mad at George Galloway For Stating That They are a Lost Cause?

Arabs are an utterly defeated people.

And the events of the last fourteen months have confirmed this much to all students of geopolitics.

The United States of America and Israel have won quite handily and it is a devastating sight to behold.

Iraq, which was the capital of some of the brightest minds known to humanity, is now being governed from Washington, with its spending vetted and approved by individuals who may never set foot in Baghdad.

Yemen was bombed into the stone ages and while there is fierce resistance on ground, it is clear that it doesn’t have what it takes to mount a challenge to its neighbours efforts.

Syria, is the latest casualty.

Turkiye acting in concert with the Americans and Israelis were able to achieve a long-held policy objective in bringing to an end the 50 year al-Assad dynasty in a few heady days in December 2024.

And what’s extraordinary about these events is that it hasn’t galvanized the people of the most unstable region on this planet.

And I think that it is incumbent upon us to ask why this is the case? Why is the revolutionary fervour of the yesteryears?
