Peace Through Offense
According to polling conducted by the Washington Institute for Near East Policy before the October 7 attacks:
71% of Emiratis
76% of Bahrainis
75% of Saudis
84% of Egyptians
84% of Jordanians
And 92% of Arabs overall
reject peace with Israel.
These are not fringe numbers. They represent the prevailing sentiment across Arab populations, even in countries whose governments have signed normalization agreements with Israel. And if those numbers were staggering before October 7, we can only assume they’ve grown even more alarming in the aftermath.
So what exactly does Israel hope to achieve by expanding the Abraham Accords? What good is diplomatic normalization if the people themselves reject it? Peace between governments is not peace. It's paper. It’s temporary. And worse, it’s a dangerous illusion if the underlying cultural and ideological hostility remains untouched.
What Israel truly needs, and what religious and ethnic minorities across the Arab world desperately need, is not another handshake at a summit. It’s genuine peace. Not a hudna.
The term hudna refers to a temporary truce in Islamic doctrine, one entered into not for the sake of coexistence, but for strategic delay. It is invoked when Muslims are not yet strong enough to defeat their adversaries. Once the balance of power shifts, the truce is broken. That is not a theory. That is history. That is precedent, set by Muhammad himself, who signed the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah only to violate it once his forces had grown strong enough to destroy his opponents.
This is the lens through which much of the Arab world interprets “peace” with Israel today: not as the end of hostility, but as a tactical pause.
This is why Project Ex exists. Because treaties will not uproot 1,400 years of theology. Speeches and summits will not erase what children are taught in mosques and classrooms across the region. The only way to break this cycle is to challenge the ideological foundations that sustain it.
That means exposing the doctrines that dehumanize the Jew, the Christian, the heretic, the convert. It means confronting the narratives that glorify conquest, martyrdom, and the subjugation of non-Muslims. It means deconstructing the idol of political Islam from the inside, using the language, culture, and tools of the region itself.
Project Ex does exactly that. It’s not another think tank. It’s not a government-funded NGO parroting diplomatic slogans. It’s a truth-telling platform, run by those who’ve lived it, survived it, and are now fighting it.
Project Ex educates the West about what’s really at stake, not just for Israel, but for civilization itself.
If you care about peace, if you care about liberty, if you care about preserving the moral architecture of the free world, then supporting Project Ex is not charity. It’s strategy. It’s defense.
Peace will never come from the top down. It must be built from the inside out.
