Hahn reflects on the world as it existed in 2076, before the war, and how the devastation unleashed by the war shaped the lives of the survivors. Hahn is keen that the school boy, Eugene, grasps that, while there were huge changes in technology before and after the war, the most important change was in people, and their attitude towards each other and the planet on which they lived....

Eugene’s brow furrowed. ‘You mean you could choose who died?’ ‘Oh yes.’ Hahn’s tone was matter of fact. ‘But now I venture onto the territory of state secrets! Not only were we implanted with health chips, those of us who thought we were important were implanted with tags that identified our status. This was updated in real time. So if my car was in an accident with another, and there was a possibility that one car would be so badly damaged its passengers would die, one of the decisions taken by the cars’ on-board computers would be which passenger was higher status and should have the higher chance of survival.’ Eugene looked astonished, ‘But how could that happen?’ ‘You have to remember that our computers worked at a phenomenal speed and there was plenty of time for them to check which car carried the higher status individual and redirect that car to minimize impact on them. That might involve a far worse collision for the other car and its passengers.’ Eugene shook his head. ‘Weren’t people outraged at this?’ ‘That’s where the state secret came in. No one knew this happened, apart from the agency that monitored status, and t...

مقدمة اللجنة العلمية المختار الثقفي... رجل الأسطورة في نصرة الحق لم تعد شخصية المختار بن أبي عبيدة الثقفي شخصية درامية يتخذها البعض في تصوير مشهد تاريخي ما، بل فرضت هذه الشخصية نفسها على الحدث الإسلامي لتكون مفردة تاريخية مستقلة، وهذا يعني أن المختار ذو القابليات المتعددة صار مسرحاً للنقد والدراسة والتحليل، ومنه يُعلم مالهذه الجهود من تجاذبات فكرية تتفقُ أحياناً وتتقاطع أخرى، لتزيد المشهد التاريخي تعقيداً فوق كل تعقيداته المختلفة فهذا المختار الذي تعددت قراءات فكره وتوجهاته بين كيساني النزعة، إلى زيدي الهوى حتى إمامي الانتهاء، وفي نطاق السياسة فهو بين زبيري حتى مرواني إلى علوي الاصطفاف، وهكذا هي دوامة تاريخية لا تنتهي إلاّ بقناعات غير قطعية محالة على الظن أو التهمة أو الكراهية وحتى عبثية التحليل، وينتمي كل دارسٍ إلى ثقافته القبلية التي تفرض عليه ترسيم حدود الشخصية التاريخية التي لم تجد مجالاً للنقد أو التروي حتى تتحكم في تعريفها هذه الدواعي غير العلمية، وتتجه نتائج البحث أخيراً لتؤشر على الحالة الانتمائية التي يبتلي بها الكاتب أو المحلل التاريخي الذي تستهويه هذه المطاردات لتسقط أخيراً من مضمار الهوس والتسابق الذوقي حتى تحط رحالها إلى حيث انتهت معه التؤدة في التحقيق، والتروي في معالجة البحث، وتخرج الجهود التحقيقية بنتائجها القيمة م...

المقدمة الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على خير خلق الله أجمعين إمام المرسلين وخاتم النبيين سيدنا محمد وعلى آله الطيبين الطاهرين وصحبه المنتجبين، اللهم إنك ثقتي في كل كرب ورجائي في كل شدة، وبعد: مما لاشك فيه أن موضوع الرسالة: (شخصية المختار بن أبي عبيد الثقفي عند المؤرخين القدامى) ذو أهمية كبيرة لما لتلك الشخصية من دورٍ محوري ومهم في الحقبة التي تلت استشهاد أبي الأحرار الإمام الحسين (عليه السلام) وارتباطها بقضية آل البيت والأخذ بثأرهم من قتلتهم وأعدائهم وما آل إليه ذلك من إدخال السرور على آل بيت النبي (صلى الله عليه واله وسلم) وشيعتهم ومحبيهم. ومن البديهي أن يضم التاريخ الإسلامي في طياته الكثير من الروايات الصحيحة إلا أنه لم يخلُ من التناقضات التي لا تخفى على مطلعٍ فضلاً عن الاجتهادات والآراء الشخصية التي تحكمّت بها أهواء مَن كتبوه وميولهم منذ بدايته وحتى يومنا هذا؛ مما نتج عنه تشويه للحقائق ظُلمَ بسببها العديد من رجاله العظماء لاسيما الموالون لآل البيت، فإذا كان بنو أمية قد سبّوا الإمام علياً (عليه السلام) لأكثر من ثمانين عاماً على منابر المسلمين في كل البلاد التي حكموها دون رادع أو خوف من أحد فمن الهيّن واليسير إلصاق التهم وطمس فضائل وتغييب ملامح كل مَن سارَّ في ركبه (عليه السلام) أو نهج خطاه. وشخصية المختار من أكثر الش...

The issue in all the essays is the connection between the energy policies of various countries, their foreign policies, and the wars that break out at various parts of the globe, since all three are closely related. I describe many economic interests and many alliances in my essays. But alliances change and so do economic interest. Therefore what is more important for the reader is to have an idea of the global resources i.e. oil and natural gas in my essays, because global resources change at a much lower pace than economic interests and economic alliances. ...
