Over 500 years, the Ottomans were regarded as the greatest power in the world, with cultural, aesthetic, architectural influences as well as their military and political supremacy. But it’s never as simple as that, not does it just stop there. 

The impact of the Ottomans on the entire world, and not only in the regions of Anatolia and the Near East, is remarkable. The 500-year history of the regional and arguably global domination is full of significant events, developments, challenges and achievements on virtually every section of human interaction.

It’s rise, but equally, it’s fall, and the role of the rising West, the Arab Revolution make for a fascinating discussion with Dr. Yakoob Ahmed.

What did the Ottomans Ever do for the World? | The London Circle

With Donald Trump achieving a landslide victory over Kamala Harris in the recent US Presidential elections, countless questions emerge regarding what the world, as well as the US itself, can expect from the next 4 years.

Whether, the US economy or the issue of illegal migration, or whether Ukraine, China, the Middle East, the questions surrounding that Trump 2nd term are many and pressing. Without doubt, Israel, Palestine and particularly the ongoing attacks on Gaza and Lebanon are high amongst those questions, as well as the normalization process which Trump launched in his first term.

Few are more capable of dissecting America and forecasting what the world can expect, than Professor Sami Al-Arian, who sits with Anas Altikriti to discuss these questions and more.

In this episode, Anas Altikriti discusses with three Australian activists, their respective involvement in the pro-Palestine movement and their takes on the future thereof as well as of Australian politics, with local and federal elections looming.

Australian society and the response to a genocide | The London Circle

While the outrage over Gaza is palpable, the Australian government remains silent, and to many actively complicit with Israel in the crimes against the Palestinians. But things are changing, or are they?

This discussion with Sue Bolton and Mohammad Helmy is fascinating for a number of reasons, not least because of the decades long involvement of both with bringing to Australia’s attention the crime of occupation in Palestine, and the attempt to make the issue of Palestine a political point of debate.

Anas Altikriti talks with the both of them and discusses the impact of the Gaza genocide on the coming local and federal Australian elections.
