| Saudi intellectual: Arabs block civilization |
| 2016-11-21 |
| [ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Al Arabiya: Professor Ibrahim Albleahy, what was the formation of your ideology and what were the pivotal moments which led you to explore the Arab-Muslim community’s dilemma through philosophy? Albleahy: In my childhood, I recognized that there was a huge gap not only between us as Arabs and Muslims, but between all the nations on the one hand, and the West on the other. The West, and no one else, is the architect of this eminent civilization that is qualitatively different from everything that humanity has known throughout history. The evolvement of the nations that tagged along was proportional to what they were inspired by from the West, hence, I yearned to explore the dynamics that facilitated the West’s advancement and kept other nations lagging behind. |

| #6 "Then, I realized that people in all nations are still living in false states of consciousness," I think one partial sentence sums up the entire problem facing those of us who are not afraid of peanut butter and gluten! |

| #3 The West, and no one else, is the architect of this eminent civilization that is qualitatively different from everything that humanity has known throughout history. Holy $hit!! There's a thought to twist the knickers of every proggie from Obumbles to Triggly Puff. From a Muslim no less. Wait while I go catch some flying bacon. |
