Should we boycott Turkish goods?
A call for the boycott of Turkish goods has been doing rounds on social media over the past few weeks, reflecting a very bad image of Erdogan’s Turkey among members of Arab society.The social media boycott call comes after Turkey lost all its credibility at the level of Arab governments.It is a fact that the Turkish president has recruited most of the radical organizations, spending hundreds of millions of dollars in media campaigns targeting Arab people, and investing in a section of Muslim Brotherhood leaders in order to promote his image and that of his country.In the current scenario, not all of the tools used by the Turkish president would help him clean the ugly face of Turkish politics, which aims to use Arab lives for its regional and international bargains. It was evident when...

First diplomatic certificate!
The recent remarks of Prince Bandar Bin Sultan about the Palestine issue shed light not only on the comprehensive information that he possesses but also a strong statement supported with testimonies, people’s accounts, and official documents. Together with the statement, we need to realize that Saudi Arabia is a sovereign state, and when it decides to normalize or establish relations with anyone, it will not wait for anyone’s opinion or consent.The prince’s appearance and testimony came spontaneously and simply as a former official who was a witness to the history full of events. Though his language was directed at sons and daughters of his country, his speech was blunt and painful for those of us who are accustomed to keep silent and are hesitant to confront ingratitude, denial, and...

Who is a gentleman?
“Anyone can be heroic from time to time, but a gentleman is something you have to be all the time,” quoted Luigi Pirandello, Italian dramatist, novelist and poet, describing a gentleman. However, from my point of view, humility and intelligence all the time are associated with gentlemen, and having those traits will automatically give a man the right attitude to be attractive.This might sound indelicate for some of you, but I’m addressing the ones that are interested in having a long-term relationship and are looking forward to build a healthy happy life together. This article is going to be a little emotional and, I don’t know why, but this made me feel very sentimental. These sentiments help us understand many things and preferences mainly about others and ourselves on the next...

Understanding the fast-evolving digital culture
Since the beginning of time, different inventions helped shape the human psyche and changed the way human beings saw the world and redefined their relations with their surroundings. The scientific development left an impact on the socio-economic evolution as well. We are currently passing through a similar phase.The digital age may have dawned on us a few decades ago but the explosion of the latest technology and access to the internet has an enormous impact on human societies. A new kind of language and culture is emerging. The pace with which the field is evolving we can say that the digital culture is still in its infancy though growing very fast.The situation calls for more research into the effects of this culture and its findings can help plan better in order to catch up with the...

We become what we repeatedly do
I’m exploring the idea of good habits and how it shapes us. I noticed, and as it seemed to me, that people that I admire have accomplished things that I look up to because of this particular fact — good habits.For example, when we talk about the consistent to positive aspect they have shown that they have followed it routinely and practiced it, and it seems they have formed habits and kept it vey grounded. So, if you are forced to compare yourself with others, then do the comparison between yourself and true masters. I believe the desire to feel good about their lives keeps them inspiring to feed those behaviors and habits.Soon they consider these routines as their actual dear friends that have always prompted love, clarity, and worthiness within them. In early 2020, most of us, I...

King AbdulAziz: The greatest of all Arab kings
When the famous Arab-American writer and founding father of Arab-American literature Ameen Rihani authored the book “The Modern History of Najd,” he dedicated in the preface of the book a special tribute to King AbdulAziz.In it he referred to the King saying: “His Majesty King AbdulAziz, may he long live... From the era of Caliph Omar until the beginning of your Saudi era, Arabs were not fortunate enough to have such a ruler like him who closed their ranks, united their word, and strengthened their affairs, making them under one sovereign Kingdom where it is good for all, and it is the one Arab sovereignty.”Rihani believes that what King AbdulAziz achieved was the first comprehensive success in the Arabian Peninsula. The Umayyads and Abbasids failed, but AbdulAziz succeeded....

How do you prepare and approach your priorities?
Priority, basically defined, is a thing that is regarded as more important than others. I can simply state priorities as things that are focused on now or in the present moment — or in other words what we are giving our attention to, not yesterday or tomorrow, but now.So one question is very essential for all of us. It is, how do you prepare and approach your priorities? From my point of view, I think we have to be clear about how to categorize our priorities, by asking questions such as “Why I need that? Why I want that? Why don’t I have it?” And from those questions once we arrive at what is missing, we will automatically be able to realize what are our priorities. Then we will make every effort to fulfill those things in our lives. Without doubt, our priorities differ according...

The National Day and the birth of KAUST
The National Day of our homeland is a glorious occasion and it is dearest to our hearts. This auspicious day coincides with another precious occasion that is also dear to my heart as well as to the hearts of all other Saudi citizens who witnessed their country’s march toward the future with a prudent vision and bold steps. That was the occasion of the opening of King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), coinciding with the National Day on Sept.23, 2009.Now KAUST has become a towering beacon for knowledge with its academic, scientific, and research branches, to which I belong. With a quick reading of the two scenes (of the nation and the university) and the points of intersection between them, I can emphasize that the university drew inspiration from the unity of the...

Happy National Day 90
Today we have a powerful desire to find a way to show our love, more than yesterday and incrementally tomorrow, such that it is more than what we desire today.That happiness is originally experiencing the 90th anniversary of our country’s founding, may Allah have mercy on King Abdulaziz Bin Abdulrahman Al Saud, the founder of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Countries all over the world celebrate their National Day as it symbolizes a day on which the nationhood of the country is marked.Every year Saudi Arabia too marks Sept. 23 as its National Day, and we, Saudis, always focus on our big day with pride in our heart. I’m extremely blessed and proud to be a Saudi and we all should count it as a big blessing to belong to such a country like Saudi Arabia.Being Saudi means we have to appreciate...

American unipolarity and the rise of China
Liberal hegemony and the return of politics of great powers and institutions of the international system:My discourse here is divided into three parts: The first part deals with the liberal hegemony, and the second discusses the return of the politics of the great powers while the third part deals with the institutions of the international system.The liberal hegemony is the talk about the American unipolarity. This is necessarily the talk about the international system. So is the case with the rise of China as this rise does not take place in vacuum but on the international arena.Therefore, it is justified, and even necessary, from a methodological point of view, that our discourse is about the international system. In a nutshell, we can talk about the international system through three...
