Something is Rotten in the State of Denmark

News:

Egypt's dictator, Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, is on an official state visit to Denmark, where both the royal family and the government have rolled out the red carpet for him. Alongside the top tiers of Danish business, relations with the torture regime are to be nurtured, and cooperation agreements strengthened—all while Muslims are required to assimilate into Western values or told to leave the country.

Comment:

Today’s Pharaoh, directly responsible for the siege of Gaza and for suffocating every right of his people, received a statesman’s welcome as if he were a hero.

During his visit, he was even awarded Denmark’s highest honor and referred to as a "trusted partner" by Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, who, from the pinnacle of arrogant amorality, has made it her project to problematize Islamic values and force Muslims to assimilate into Western values - Western, liberal freedom values that celebrate dictators and legitimize genocide.

This celebration reveals, in addition to profound Western hypocrisy, a deep alliance between Western states and the despots of the Muslim world. An alliance aimed at securing Western dominance over our lands and serving imperialist agendas- where one hand supports the occupation of Muslim lands and torture regimes, while the other rewards and honors the tyrant who ensures that the brown and black do not flee to white Europe, where there is only room for genocidal values. Otherwise, they can return to torture regimes sponsored by the West.

Something is truly rotten in the state of Denmark.

This rot is not confined to Denmark alone but is a manifestation of the dominant Western systems that thrive on hypocrisy, oppression, and imperialism. Muslims have a responsibility to rise above these corrupt systems and work to establish an alternative rooted in justice, unity, and divine guidance. Only by reviving the Islamic system, under the leadership of a Caliphate (Khilafah), can we put an end to this cycle of tyranny and create a world where dignity and accountability prevail.
