When the West Found Jihad Useful. During the Cold War, the US and UK often found Islamic identity a useful counterweight to Soviet influence. In doing so, they repeatedly drew on the language of jihad for strategic purposes. @ColinPClarke @yashoazad countercurrents.org/2026/05/when-t…

Khamenei’s death may have done more than remove Iran’s leader. It may have removed the last moral restraint on its nuclear ambitions. Can theology still restrain a state that feels existentially threatened? open.substack.com/pub/sajidfshap…

Those of you who think that Iran-Israel rivalry is both pathological and ideological may find this 2024 article revealing. #IranWar‌ #israel countercurrents.org/2024/04/iran-i…

India’s Gulf Test: Navigating Saudi–UAE Competition by Sajid Farid Shapoo countercurrents.org/2026/01/indias… As Saudi Arabia and the UAE recalibrate their rivalry, India finds itself walking a geopolitical tightrope in a Gulf no longer united by seamless alliances. Behind high-profile visits and strategic partnerships lies a deeper clash of power models, regional ambitions, and competing visions of influence. For New Delhi, the challenge is not choosing sides but navigating a fragmented Middle East while preserving strategic autonomy, economic interests, and regional stability. This moment reveals how shifting Gulf dynamics could reshape India’s diplomacy, security calculus, and role in an emerging multipolar order—where balance, not allegiance, may determine the future.

I write that Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal, escalation posture, and the institutions to manage it were built to deter and, if necessary, counter New Delhi—not to manage crises with Israel or Iran. countercurrents.org/2025/10/saudi-… via @countercurrents

Extended deterrence sounds reassuring on paper. In practice, it is fraught, contingent, and often unreliable. The recent Saudi–Pakistan defense pact should be viewed as strategic optics and prudent hedging, rather than a NATO-style nuclear guarantee.

Saudi–Pakistan Pact and the Limits of Extended Deterrence by Sajid Farid Shapoo countercurrents.org/2025/10/saudi-… When Saudi Arabia and Pakistan announced a Strategic Mutual Defence Agreement (SMDA) in mid-September—pledging that any aggression against one would be treated as aggression against both—commentary quickly veered toward nuclear hyperbole. A fleeting remark from Pakistan’s defence minister that “what we have—our capabilities—will be available” briefly fed that narrative before being walked back. Soon after, analysts rushed to suggest that Riyadh now sat under a Pakistani nuclear umbrella. Saudi officials have, however, studiously avoided any nuclear language—and prudently so. The history and logic of extended deterrence—credible promises to use nuclear or major conventional force on another’s behalf—make it a poor and risky fit here.

Terrorism itself is a tactic, not a group, a movement, or an organization. Wars end. Accordingly, terrorism will never end; it will merely ebb and flow in different regions of the world in response to a confluence of different factors. thesoufancenter.org/intelbrief-202…
