An Islamist organization that advocates for violent jihadis in Britain is setting up shop in the United States. CAGE International, which portrays counter-Islamists in Europe as "Islamophobes," is preparing to do the same thing in the U.S. The organization recently solicited donations from donors in the U.S. with the help of Omar Suleiman and Daniel Haqiqatjou. The two imams, who represent the progressive and conservative wings of American Islamism, have called on their U.S. followers to support which made a name for itself in the years after 9/11 by advocating for terrorists serving time in Guantanamo Bay.

The organization hasn't released the numbers about the amount of money it has raised in the U.S., but overall, it seems to have done pretty well, raising £650,000 (approximately $828,000) through its "Supporting Our Heroes: From Guantanamo to Gaza" fundraising campaign launched during Ramadan, which took place this past spring. At the very least, CAGE's American partners helped it to exploit Hamas's October 7 massacre to promote its Islamist brand to Muslims globally, particularly those living in the U.S.

For his part, Haqiqatjou shared a post in March 2024 on his X account featuring CAGE International outreach director Moazzam Begg's call on Western Muslims to support his organization and endorsed its activism and advocacy as "another important cause."

These baby steps help pave the way for CAGE International to gain a foothold in the United States, especially as the British Islamist organization announced its efforts to expand its global reach and influence under the new brand "CAGE International."

Background – What is CAGE?

Given that public officials and counter-Islamists in the United States have little exposure to CAGE International's antics, a primer is in order. Here is what decision-makers need to know about the organization.

Established as a company by Adnan Rasheed Siddiqui in 2007 in London, the Islamist organization, which was initially known as CagePrisoners has gone through two rebrandings, emerging first as CAGE in 2013 and as CAGE International in 2023.

The group, which is currently registered as "Cage Advocacy UK Ltd," describes itself as "an independent advocacy organization" working to "challenge War on Terror inspired state oppression and empower communities to dismantle the discourses and policies of the global War on Terror." Cloaked in the guise of religion, human rights, and social justice, CAGE International claims that it seeks to "revive divine justice." To that end, the Islamist organization invokes the invented concept of "Islamophobia" and spearheads campaigns advocating for Al-Qaeda actors, Islamists, and convicted terrorists.

🌙 Books for Arab American Heritage Month 🌙

🌙 Good morning, bookish bats, and Eid Mubarak to those who are celebrating. Eid al-Fitr ("the feast of breaking the fast") marks the end of Ramadan, an Islamic holy month of fasting and sacrifice. April is also Arab American Heritage month, which celebrates the 3.7 million Arab Americans across the country.

A New Vision for Mail Boxes Etc Shepherd’s Bush, London

Welcome to an exciting new chapter for the Mail Boxes Etc. store in Shepherd’s Bush! As of April 2024, local entrepreneurs Raj Khullar and Adnan Siddiqui have taken over the reins, bringing fresh ideas and renewed energy to this beloved community hub on Rockley Road.

New Mail Boxes Etc Shepherd’s Bush owners Adnan Siddiqui and Raj Khullar

Raj, who recently bought the franchise, has teamed up with his old friend Adnan, who will be managing the day-to-day operations. Together, they have a clear vision: to support local businesses in Shepherd’s Bush with their import and export needs, while also expanding the store’s design and print services.

Raj shares his enthusiasm:

“Mail Boxes Etc. is the world’s leading provider of shipping, fulfilment, print, and marketing solutions for small and medium enterprises, as well as consumers. With a network of over 1,800 franchise locations in 48 countries, we are truly global.”

He continues,

“Mail Boxes Etc. is one of the few chain store outlets expanding on UK high streets. We believe this growth is driven by the increasing number of ecommerce businesses looking for professional shipping solutions and postal mailboxes separate from their home or operational addresses.”

Raj and Adnan are committed to making international shipping hassle-free for their customers. They handle the complexities of choosing the right shipping partner for each package and assist with documentation to minimise delays.

Their packing solutions are ideal for those dealing with fragile items, and they also specialise in securely sending sensitive and high-value documents.

For businesses operating from home, the store’s mailbox services offer a perfect solution, allowing entrepreneurs to keep their home addresses private. Raj adds,

“I’m excited to bring these services to the people and businesses of Shepherd’s Bush. We aim to help local entrepreneurs and established businesses expand their reach globally.”

With their combined expertise and dedication, Raj and Adnan are ready to take the Shepherd’s Bush Mail Boxes Etc. to new heights, offering unparalleled service and support to the local business community.

Director Siddharth Anand Responds to 'Fighter' Controversy, Urges Audience to Watch Before Judging

The highly-anticipated film ‘Fighter’ finds itself amidst controversy as accusations of being ‘anti-Pakistan’ and jingoistic surface. Director Siddharth Anand has addressed the criticisms, encouraging viewers to reserve judgment until they have seen the entire film.

Scheduled for release on January 25, ‘Fighter’ features Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, and Anil Kapoor in leading roles, marking India’s first ‘aerial action-drama’. While the film has garnered praise for its drama, action sequences, and emotional dialogues within India, it has faced backlash in Pakistan. Notable figures like Hania Aamir and Adnan Siddiqui have labeled ‘Fighter’ as ‘anti-Pakistan’.

In response to these allegations, Siddharth Anand spoke during a group interview, providing clarity on the film’s intent. He stated that ‘Fighter’ is based on a true incident, portraying factual events that are already in the public domain. Anand emphasized that nothing new has been added, and those finding fault with the trailer should watch the complete film to grasp the full context.

Addressing concerns about the film being ‘jingoistic’, Anand clarified, “I think I would call it more nationalistic than jingoistic. Some things are just being taken out of context.” He urged viewers to watch the film before forming opinions, emphasizing that ‘Fighter’ stands against terrorism, not a specific country. “That’s what our film stands for, to fight against terrorism. We have emphasized the same through ‘Fighter’, and once you see it, you will understand.”

Anand responded to allegations of sparking unnecessary controversies, describing ‘Fighter’ as a “happy Indian film” and a patriotic venture. Starring additional cast members Akshay Oberoi, Karan Singh Grover, Ashutosh Rana, and Sanjeeda Shaikh, ‘Fighter’ is set to release on January 25.

Farhat Ishtiaq says : Indeed, possessive parents are very common in Pakistan and definitely, they affect the growth and stability of a child.

As the story will unfold, the audience will understand the motive behind Mir Farooq Zamaan’s over-protectiveness and the reasons behind his controlling streak.However, his behavior of being over-possessive and protective has become abnormal to an extent.Such behavior hinders the confidence of a child and even as they grow up, they find it hard to make major decisions in life. It is good for parents to show love and care towards their children. But, in our society, the extreme care of parents often hampers the children to take risks and that practice is totally wrong.Nevertheless, the audience will gradually know why Mir Farooq Zamaan owned such a personality as the plot paces.

Ye Dil Mera (E01)

I have a very strong feeling that Ahad Raza Mir is going to excel in the role of Amaan. I’m not particularly liking him in Ehd-e-wafa, but there’s something about him doing a dark character that is already coming through in this performance. Sajal Aly we know at this point, she doesn’t falter much in her acting. (Brownie points to her stylist as she actually is dressed like a university student). I have high expectations from this show for its story, and the first episode definitely has me hooked.
