The essays collected here are organised not by date or platform but by conceptual arc. Each sequence is a cluster of related pieces that, read together, constitute an argument larger than any single article.
Published May 2026, Elaph (Arabic)
Three essays forming a deliberate sequence on how language functions as a political instrument in the context of Gaza and international order.
عندما تنهار الفئات: الخلط والسلطة وسياسات التسمية — When Categories Collapse: Confusion, Power, and the Politics of Naming
عندما تصبح اللغة فخًا — When Language Becomes a Trap
حين تصبح الحقيقة غير قابلة للتعرّف: غزة وانهيار لغة النظام الدولي — When Truth Becomes Unrecognisable: Gaza and the Collapse of the Language of International Order
The sequence moves from the structural (how classification systems operate) to the procedural (how language is weaponised institutionally) to the evidentiary (what happens when the international system’s own language can no longer name what it is witnessing).
Britain Palestine Project, Elaph, and archive
A sequence examining the 1930 Buraq Wall Commission ruling and its implications for contemporary legal argument. The Ottoman administrative record is not historical background. It is primary source material with active evidentiary standing.
Britain Palestine Project and archive
Essays tracing the legal and administrative continuity from Ottoman governance through the British Mandate and into the present international legal framework. The argument: that Palestinian legal standing is not a claim made in the absence of documentation but one that is recoverable from the documentary record itself.
Palestine Chronicle, May 2026
An essay on the Venice Biennale as a site of contested representation, and on the concept of narrative infrastructure as the organised architecture through which some realities are made visible and others are systematically obscured.
Substack and English-language archive
A recurring thread across multiple essays on the institutional, procedural, and linguistic mechanisms through which the Palestinian case is rendered illegible to international publics and institutions — and on the counter-structures that analysis and archival work can build against it.
Arabic and Italian tracks, 2025–2026
A sequence of essays across Elaph, Al-Hayat Washington, L’AntiDiplomatico, and Il Fatto Quotidiano examining the political economy of permanent war: the structural incentives, financial architectures, and institutional arrangements that sustain armed conflict as a condition rather than an exception.
