Who's Who in Egypt's Muslim BrotherhoodMohammed Ayub Khan
November 13, 2012
Given its growing control over key government institutions and its unmatched mobilizing capabilities, the Muslim Brotherhood will likely remain Egypt's most consequential political actor for many years to come. But who are the men who make up this uniquely cohesive and secretive "society," and what impact will they have on the country's domestic and foreign policy?
Navigating Multiple IdentitiesMohammed Ayub Khan

Canadian Muslims turned into a political footballMohammed Azhar Ali Khan

Freedom of religion versus respect for othersMohammed Azhar Ali Khan
March 11, 2015
Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper is battling a Muslim woman who at a citizenship ceremony refused to remove her niqab (a veil commonly worn by Muslim women in public that covers the whole face apart from the eyes). She said that she would not violate her religious beliefs. But the losers in the long run are likely to be Canadian Muslims, whom Islamophobes accuse of trying to impose their customs on Canadians. The Federal Court of Canada has ruled that it's "unlawful" to force immigrants to remove the veil while taking the oath of citizenship because Canada's immigration law empowers citizenship judges to accommodate religious needs.

Harper offers false choice for Middle East peaceMorgan Duchesney
February 18, 2014
Inspired perhaps by the fading echoes of George W. Bush; Stephen Harper has presented Canadians with a false choice on Middle East peace: either voice "absolute, non-negotiable belief in Israel" or be declared an anti-Semite. Stephen Harper refuses to be a real friend to the Israelis in the sense that he excuses their more objectionable behaviour for the sake of political support, business deals and misplaced guilt.
