E-mail Print PDF


I am a believer, but I am also a journalist who is trained in scientific methods of research and analysis. As a Muslim, belief in Imam Mahdi, second coming of Jesus and fitna of Dajjal is part of my faith.

As a Muslim and as a Student of strategic studies when I see my faith in light of current situation and developments my faith increase in Allah and his beloved Prophet(?.( . No doubt Prophet predicted every thing we see today and it’s my experience that Qur’an and Sunnah helped me when ever I took guidance from them in understanding the geo strategic problems and also helped me to analyze and predict what ever was coming.

Terrorism: Partially Painted Picture in Media

E-mail Print PDF

Sabir Ali

Current depiction and coverage of extremist actions tends to show that only fundamentalist Muslims are terrorists, only Islam is the major source of motivation for terrorism, and only Pakistan is the nursery for terrorists. Several movies, documentaries, articles, and books thematize that fundamentalist Muslims are irrational, idiosyncratic, and incompatible to the contemporary world systems. Violent actions and suicide attacks done by Taliban, as shown in media although without any authentic identity of source, bring chaos and entrap the normal life into the barbed fence of inconveniences. A fine, consistent, on-the-spot live coverage of every terrorist activity is appreciable with major drawbacks in itself.
