The Manipulation of Narratives: Islam and the Modern World

 Mauritius, a nation with a relatively recent history of human habitation, serves as a reminder of how borders and civilizations are constructs shaped by the forces of history, often through colonial occupation. These borders, while scientifically and politically defined, have become sources of conflict, manipulated by those who wield power under the guise of nationalism. In this complex landscape, a troubling reality emerges: the purposeful creation of conflicts, where borders are used as tools to divide, and nationalism becomes a weapon to advance specific agendas. At the heart of this manipulation lies a broader, more insidious campaign that targets Islam.Throughout history, various ideologies—be they communist, imperialist, Zionist, or fascist—have played a role in this defamation.  Fascists, despite often coming to power through another religion or even under the guise of atheism or pseudo-non-religious ideologies, share a common goal: to distort and manipulate the image of Islam.
