On the back cover, Yasin Aktay writes:
“The examples of the Arab revolutions are the finest illustration of a vibrant and independent social will, free from any Western intervention; they are also the clearest indication that the Islamic Ummah can bring about change to the extent of its capability and refute the numerous and cruel Western slanders directed against this great Ummah. I would also like to recall the words of Allah, the Almighty, the All-Knowing: ‘Indeed, Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves.’ (Ar-Ra'd, 11)”
