Shepherd's Knife and Wolves
The article highlights that the future of the Middle East depends on the attitudes of its peoples towards sectarianism and militias. It emphasizes the importance of a collective decision by the majority of non-sectarian civilians to reject compromise and coexistence with sectarian loyalties that perpetuate divisions. The article stresses that ruling regimes and fragile internal frameworks, which remain connected to sectarian and tribal loyalties, weaken the nation-state and strengthen division projects across the region, with external influence exploiting the chaos. It affirms that building a civil and civic state based on productivity and justice—similar to models like Tunisia and Finland—is the only solution to break the cycle. Despite the costs, confronting sectarian loyalties by all means remains necessary, because national unity and the establishment of institutions are the way to end internal and external conspiracy.
