🎮 This War of Mine – A Game Inspired by the Siege of Sarajevo 🇧🇦
This War of Mine is a survival game developed by the Polish studio 11 bit studios, heavily inspired by the Siege of Sarajevo (1992–1996) during the Bosnian War. The siege, which lasted nearly four years, was one of the longest and most brutal in modern history, trapping civilians in a city cut off from basic necessities. The game reflects this reality, shifting the focus from soldiers to ordinary people struggling to find food, medicine, and safety while facing snipers, shelling, and looters.
The developers studied firsthand accounts from Sarajevo to create a brutally realistic experience By drawing from history, This War of Mine serves as more than just a game—it is a reflection of war’s true impact on civilians, echoing the suffering and resilience seen in Bosnia. It was even added to Poland’s school curriculum as an educational tool.

End of the Ukraine War 🇺🇦
Over the past few days, I have been very happy due to the fact that the end of the war in Ukraine is being negotiated not in Europe, not in Berlin, not in Paris, not in London, but in Saudi Arabia. The largest war in Europe since the Second World War is not being negotiated in Europe itself but in a brotherly Muslim country, in the Muslim world— which speaks volumes about where the centers of power in the world now are.
As a Muslim in Europe, it brings me great joy that the country of Saudi Arabia, which during the '90s—during the unipolar moment—pressed its foot down alongside other Muslim countries in support of my people against armed barbarians who wanted to erase Islam in Europe, is now at the center stage of the world, where historic decisions are being made.

End of the Ukraine War 🇺🇦 Over the past few days, I have been very happy due to the fact that the end of the war in Ukraine is being negotiated not in Europe, not in Berlin, not in Paris, not in London, but in Saudi Arabia. The largest war in Europe since…
It makes me very proud of my Muslim brothers in the Middle East, and it is a sign of great optimism for Muslims overall, who have been bombarded by this Shaytanic propaganda strategy aimed at making us believe that we are weak—when in fact, we are strong.
At the same time, as this is happening, the leader of Ukraine was not in Germany, was not in France, was not in the UK, but in our brotherly country of Türkiye— which again speaks volumes about where such a good and friendly people stand in Europe and in the world. This should strike fear into the hearts of those who seek antagonism against Muslims.
However, having said all of this, due to my empathy, I also feel very bitter and very angry at the United States of America. Now, we can openly say that they used and fooled Ukraine in such a bastardly, psychopathic, and disgraceful manner—truly revealing the worthlessness of America's ruling class. They never meant any promise, any agreement, anything they signed with Ukraine. And now, they disgustingly and brazenly shift the blame onto Ukraine’s doorstep.
I mean, really, they deserve all the hatred in the world; they deserve all the condemnation in the world. The history books ought to state that by far, the worst country of the 20th century— and perhaps of all centuries— is the USA.

Today, the headquarters of the Palestinian Community Association in Bosnia and Herzegovina was officially inaugurated in the heart of Baščaršija. This represents an important step in strengthening the community, preserving identity, and empowering future activities. This space will serve as a place for gatherings, education, and the promotion of culture and the history of Palestine. It will also act as a bridge for understanding and solidarity between the Palestinian and Bosnian peoples. 🇧🇦🇵🇸

Field Marshall Conrad von Hötzendorf inspecting men of the III Battalion, second Bosnian-Herzegovinian Regiment at Vigo di Fassa, 1917. The men are highly decorated and they belong to the most prestigious and well-awarded formation in the Austro-Hungarian Army.
After the criminal murder of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife in what is now the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bosniaks would find themselves fighting against the imperial powers of the Entente within the ranks of the Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman armies. They served with admirable courage and efficiency on the Eastern Front against the Russians, the Alpine Front against the Italians, at Çanakkale (Gallipoli), and as far south as Jerusalem, Gaza, and Baghdad against the British. May their souls be blessed.

🇧🇦 Civilizational difference between peoples:
On one side, the kuffar, who bring their children to music festivals where they sing war songs and indoctrinate hatred into the pure and innocent; on the other side, the Muslims, who bring their children to the mosque, instilling a closeness to salah and God. There is simply no comparison between us; we are not the same.
