SERIF ALI TEKALAN

Man was not sent to this world to remain here forever, but to live for a short while and undergo a test. When one reflects on how children born yesterday become young today, how the young grow old, and how countless people depart from this world one by one, it becomes clear how swiftly life passes. Death, however, is an unchanging reality for everyone. Therefore, what truly matters is to depart prepared for the eternal life that comes after death.

Just as a person makes the necessary preparations before setting out on a journey, taking provisions and essential supplies along, one must also prepare for the journey to the Hereafter. For neither wealth, status, nor fame will enter the grave. Only one’s faith, deeds, noble character, and acts of goodness will accompany the human being.

At the very beginning of this preparation comes knowing Allah and believing in Him sincerely. A person should know his Lord who created him from nothing and live in gratitude, fully aware of the countless blessings He has bestowed. Prayer, supplication, the Qur’an, contemplation, and sincerity are among the most important means through which a person draws nearer to Allah.

People must continually renew themselves, reassess their emotional and intellectual frameworks, and seek “tajdīd” (renewal) by viewing truths every day from a deeper and more advanced perspective suitable to their age.

In reality, just as society requires constant renewal, individuals also need continual rejuvenation. Every single morning, with the awareness of a new day, a person must once again feel the depth of his religion within his soul. Truth and reality should be perceived and experienced ever more deeply each day, remaining perpetually fresh in the conscience.

AYDOGAN VATANDAS / Editor-in-Chief

In recent years, the U.S. government has taken what could be described as historic steps toward informing the public about UFOs — now referred to as UAPs (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) — and the possibility of extraterrestrial life. We are no longer dealing merely with speculation. We are now confronting a phenomenon supported by official reports and visual evidence released by the U.S. government.

Based on currently available information, these phenomena appear to share several common characteristics: sudden appearance and disappearance, extraordinary acceleration, sharp maneuvers seemingly incompatible with the known laws of physics, and near-complete silence during motion. The fact that these phenomena can move at astonishing speeds while producing almost no sound remains one of the central mysteries demanding explanation.

A Problem Beyond Speed

One of the most striking features of the UAP phenomenon has been not only the extraordinary speeds reported, but the almost total silence accompanying those speeds. From the perspective of classical aerodynamics, any object traveling through the atmosphere at hypersonic velocity should produce enormous shockwaves, friction effects, and intense acoustic explosions. Yet the picture described in UAP reports is entirely different: sudden acceleration, sharp turns, seamless transitions between water, air, and space — all occurring with almost no sound at all. If the reported events reflect a genuine physical phenomenon, then we are forced to think beyond classical propulsion models.

Donald Trump’s visit to Beijing was expected to be remembered for its grand ceremonies and displays of diplomacy. Instead, it was Xi Jinping’s sharply delivered message on Taiwan that stole the spotlight. By invoking the concept of the “Thucydides Trap,” the Chinese leader issued what amounted to a strategic warning to Washington. Xi suggested that if the Taiwan issue is mishandled, the United States and China could find themselves on a path toward conflict. Trump, meanwhile, projected a noticeably softer and more conciliatory tone in Beijing. Beneath the headlines about trade and ceremonial pageantry, the real tension centered on Taiwan and the broader U.S.-China rivalry.

There is a saying: “First minute, first goal.” President Donald Trump’s historic trip to Beijing unfolded exactly that way.

Trump was welcomed with great fanfare, but within moments Chinese President Xi Jinping sent Washington a crystal-clear warning about China’s red lines. More importantly, he did not frame it through routine diplomatic language. Instead, he invoked the highly strategic concept of the “Thucydides Trap.”

That is why the real story of the visit was not Trump’s compliments toward Xi, but rather the message Xi delivered. The essence of that message was straightforward: If China is obstructed on Taiwan, conflict may become unavoidable.

Xi’s emphasis on the Thucydides Trap was no coincidence. Ancient Greek historian Thucydides, while describing the Peloponnesian War, famously wrote that “the rise of Athens and the fear this caused in Sparta made war inevitable.” Later, Harvard political scientist Graham Allison adapted the concept to the modern era, arguing that when a rising power threatens an established hegemon, the international system often drifts toward war.

Xi’s message in Beijing reflected precisely that framework: China is now the rising power, while the United States is the declining hegemon. Therefore, in Beijing’s view, Washington should avoid interfering with China’s “historic objectives.”

Trump administration inflicted serious military damage on Iran, yet the Iranian regime did not collapse, its nuclear program did not end, and Tehran did not back down. While the White House projects an image of “total victory” at home, the conversations taking place in Washington’s corridors tell a very different story. Trump is trapped between appearing strong and avoiding another large-scale war. What has emerged is a strange gray zone: the U.S. can neither fully withdraw nor completely finish the job. The most realistic scenario now appears to be a prolonged period of controlled crisis.

Over the past few weeks, a striking atmosphere has taken hold in Washington, D.C. Whenever President Trump and senior officials appear before cameras, they speak the language of victory. But behind closed doors, the conversations are very different. Because the Iran war is neither truly over nor fully ongoing. A strange gray area has emerged. No one wants to risk a new war, yet no one is willing to bear the political cost of stepping back. The process has effectively turned into a deadlock.

President Donald Trump once again struck a hard tone on Monday. He said the ceasefire was “on life support” and insisted that pressure on Iran would continue until Tehran completely abandoned its nuclear program. From the White House perspective, the conflict is still being presented as a “total victory.”

However, if you look at Washington’s diplomatic circles, an entirely different picture emerges. The American administration inflicted significant military damage on Iran, but failed to achieve its strategic objectives. The Iranian regime did not collapse. The nuclear program was not eliminated. Tehran did not retreat. On the contrary, a noticeable sense of confidence has emerged on the Iranian side.

To understand this, one only needs to look at Iranian media or the propaganda videos circulating on social media. The message Tehran is delivering to its domestic audience is clear: “America may be the world’s greatest power, but it could not force us into submission.”

AYDOGAN VATANDAS / Editor-in-Chief

Art history sometimes asks disturbing questions. Certain works seem to transcend the limits of their own era and touch the imagination of the future. Dutch painter Aert de Gelder’s approximately 1710 painting The Baptism of Christ is precisely such a work. Today housed in the collection of the Fitzwilliam Museum, the painting initially appears to depict a conventional scene of the baptism of Jesus. Yet the dark circular celestial form in the upper portion of the painting and the intense beams of light descending from it inevitably trigger another association in the modern mind: the impression of a “flying saucer” or an intelligent celestial craft.

What matters here is this: the painting is real. The artist is real. The museum record is real. The debate begins with the question of what exactly we are seeing. Since the twentieth century, modern humanity has increasingly interpreted disk-shaped luminous forms in the sky through the aesthetic framework of UFOs. For this reason, De Gelder’s painting has attracted the attention not only of UFO researchers but also of philosophers of religion.

The painting depicts the baptism of Jesus. From the dark, disk-like celestial form above, rays of light descend directly toward Jesus and John the Baptist. What makes the image striking is that this structure differs from the traditional forms commonly found in Christian art, clouds, angelic hosts, or the dove symbolizing the Holy Spirit. The form appears almost material, centralized, and controlled. For the modern eye, the resemblance to a “flying saucer” is difficult to ignore. Even today, the use of keywords such as “flying saucer” and “UFO” in digital archives associated with the artwork demonstrates the interpretive framework through which contemporary audiences read the painting. Of course, this does not mean the museum claims the painting literally depicts a UFO; rather, it reveals how the work is perceived in modern discourse.
