Adherence to the previous and deposed systems of government in the Arab Islamic state Between assimilation and eradication. A civilizational study.

Abstract

  Despite the diversity of people’s conflicts, and the strength of their impact and violence due to their different causes, conflicts over power and governance remain the most powerful, violent, and cruel, and are characterized by the continuity of their effects, to the point that many of the leaders of those conflicts and their followers become victims on the altars of the lust for power and its pleasures, because they may expand in the scope of their effects on all those around them, and this is evident in our reality today.

Therefore, it is essential to return to history and examine historical accounts and narratives of similar cases, their causes and motivations, and to review the political stances of those in power during the early years of their rule. We must determine whether the followers of their predecessors were truly eradicated, what their justifications were, the methods used in this eradication, the reactions, and the resulting consequences. I will mention only one historical account, as the examples are numerous; I refer the reader to the sources for further information .
