In an interview with a foreign satellite channel, Al-Hassan bin Talal asked a question: If the Gulf states are not the ones financing the Islamic State, then who will? To this day, public opinion in the region in particular or in the world in general has not reached a conviction about terrorism, and who does? Today’s conviction about something quickly changes that conviction the next day, with the volume of information pumping and accelerating events in the region and the world that make public opinion change those convictions from time to time. Regarding public opinion in the region, yesterday they viewed the phenomenon of terrorism as having its true root as internal, due to religion and the religious media, but with time another public opinion soon formed in the region that attributed terrorism to the work of countries in the region such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, etc., and it became a public opinion. Another opinion, especially in the Gulf states, is that terrorism is the work of Iran and Syria. In Yemen, there is another opinion that says that the cause of terrorism is Saudi Arabia and Qatar, and some accuse America and the West. As for the fresh Yemeni secularists, they view terrorism as being caused by Islam. These convictions change from time to time. And so on, people have not reached a final, definitive conclusion about understanding the causes of this phenomenon. These changing convictions remind me of a novel by Agatha Christie that I read a while ago called Devil’s Island (I think), and its real name is (And Then There Were None), and I re-read that novel five times. In order to know who the killer is, before I open the final pages to find out the identity of the killer, and every time I re-read it, I change my idea of the killer. The novel talks about a number of people, who receive an invitation to an island, and each one of them is killed from time to time. I counted it. Many times, and with each reading I arrived at the identity of the killer, I decided to open the pages that came after the page I stopped at, and the surprise every time was that whoever I thought was the killer was killed, and thus everyone on the island was killed in succession, and I believe that I I had come to know the killer, and when I decided to give up and continue reading the novel until the last page, the surprise was that everyone was killed, so who was the killer? I began to think about the identity of the legendary killer. Perhaps there was a monster on the island, or that Agatha Christie had begun to behave like… My myth this time is in the form of the killer in her novel. They all die and there is no one on the island who can be accused of murder. Everyone is dead, so who is the killer…..a monster, a devil for example? And I continued reading until the identity of the killer was revealed by the police. The killer is… This novel is different from the rest of the killers in her other detective novels, as the killer this time is one of the ten victims, and what is most strange is that the killer was not the last victim, and here is the cleverness, as the killer was the ninth victim whose body was found covered in blood. Why is the killer different from the rest of the detective novels? Because it is difficult for whoever reads this novel to let his mind go to this idea or this possibility. The difficulty of knowing the killer is in the person who is far removed from suspicions and doubts. When we find this extreme difficulty in knowing the killer, we must Searching for a person who is far from suspicions and doubts. The killer is the murdered…and the killer was not a legendary figure as I thought. And here lies the reason for the difficulty of solving the mystery of terrorism in the region…because those who fight terrorism are the same ones who create terrorism. The killer in the story of Agatha Christie is the same killer in the mystery of terrorism. They are the ones who created terrorism and are the ones fighting terrorism, all for the sake of interfering in the region and the world. Therefore, the causes of terrorism are not mythical reasons as everyone tries to believe, and the expansion of ISIS. Its great presence in the region and the world does not make us believe that it is a legendary organization, as I thought in the story of Devil’s Island. Rather, there are realistic and objective reasons that make us understand the strength of the organization’s delusion and its ability to spread and penetrate borders, which suggest to us that it is a legendary organization, and those reasons are simply Terrorism is an intelligence work by the major global powers, in order to justify and legitimize their intervention in the region to destroy it and plunder its wealth, for the sake of their ambitions in our region and the world. ——————-Son of the Sun…
