The Cordoba Foundation remembers the victims of the Srebrenica Genocide, 29 years on.
On the 29th anniversary of the Srebrenica Genocide, The Cordoba Foundation (TCF) stands in solidarity with the survivors, the families of the victims, and the entire Bosnian community.
We remember the tragic events of July 1995, when over 8,000 Bosnian Muslim men and boys were brutally murdered in what remains the worst atrocity on European soil since the Second World War.
The Cordoba Foundation has worked tirelessly to raise awareness of this horrific genocide and to ensure that the memories of those who perished are never forgotten.
Our dedicated efforts, spanning more than 20 years, have included educational programmes, community outreach, and collaborations with international human rights organisations to highlight the importance of remembering Srebrenica genocide.
Sadly we see similar and worse occurances today, such as the genocide by Israel against the Palestinians in Gaza and other parts of Palestine.
The Cordoba Foundation will continue to champion these efforts, advocating for truth and reconciliation, and striving to prevent such atrocities from occurring in the future.
Together, let us pledge to uphold the values of peace, justice, and humanity, ensuring that “Never Again” is not just a slogan, but a reality we work towards every day.

Praise be to Allah, the Lord of all worlds, Who tests us with the most severe trials, guiding us to His mercy and granting us boundless and unimaginable patience, hope, and tranquility.
Peace and blessings be upon His beloved messenger, Muhammad, and upon his patient followers throughout all times, the honorable, brave, and proud bearers of goodness and peace among all people and worlds.
We beseech His mercy for the honorable martyrs and all innocent victims of human evil throughout all times, especially our noble Bosnian martyrs.
The land we walk on, in hopes of peace and a peaceful life, has absorbed much goodness. Generations of our innocent and kind-hearted predecessors have enriched its essence, nurturing it with primal goodness, profound faith in the Almighty, and hard daily labor. Their honorable and untainted sacrifices, often childlike in their innocence, have forever marked this land.
Our past holds many events that have found their place in our collective memory. While many of these events are tragic and painful, there are also many we are proud of. They deepen our understanding of one another, foster mutual trust, and strengthen our determination to bravely pursue our common goal: building a stable and peaceful homeland.
The Genocide in Srebrenica, committed in July 1995, has deeply etched itself into both our individual and collective memory. It is more than just a tragic event: it is a cornerstone of our very existence; a dividing line in our identity—we are not the same as we were before the Genocide. It serves as our annual gathering place and a source of our awareness about ourselves and the world we live in.
Everything that happened afterward, brutal and tragic, only completed the picture of this planned atrocity. This crime was preceded and is still fueled by the darkest myths, built on a primitive desire for revenge, which dictates that one must destroy, burn, kill, humiliate, and torture in the most brutal ways.
It is difficult to live with such knowledge and in such an environment, to find joy in life and make plans for a better future.
Yet, day by day, we strive to build a world that reflects the one the Almighty calls us to: O believers, live all in peace and do not follow the devil’s path, for he is your open enemy (Al-Baqarah, 2:208).
At our core, stemming from our faith, is openness and living in harmony with ourselves and others. We cannot ignore Allah’s guidance on this. He warns us: Why do you preach what you do not practice? (As-Saff, 2:2).
Therefore, we are encouraged by the free world’s resolution to silence those who have crossed all boundaries of evil, celebrated criminals, and humiliated victims. The global recognition of the Genocide in Srebrenica, even if only for one day each July, can initiate social processes shared by all of us.
This is a significant act of solidarity, recognition, and defense of the dignity of the victims’ families. For us Bosnian Muslims, it is particularly important that, even on a symbolic level, there are people and governments willing to stand against evil, acknowledge the sacrifice, and do what is necessary for the mothers of Srebrenica to feel kindness and love from others. This act of global empathy and solidarity should serve as a lesson for all of us, to learn from the evil that occurred in our country and reached its peak in Srebrenica, and to recognize the wrong path.
Our thoughts are also with other people of our time, worn out by war, where every human right has been violated. The news we receive daily tells us of unspeakable human suffering. It is almost redundant to mention the criminal and political guilt of those in power who participate in the crimes in Ukraine and Gaza. They will one day have to face justice and answer for their misdeeds; otherwise, we will all descend into an abyss of evil with no escape. But what about the moral guilt of the people in whose name these crimes are committed? And finally, what about the metaphysical guilt of all of us, who, to varying degrees, silently observe this? No, none of us will escape justice, no matter how much we think we are beyond God’s judgment.
Today, more than ever before, we urgently need the resolve to confront the evil that can arise within ourselves. The journey ahead is long and challenging. We will encounter encouragement and obstacles, friends and foes. However, other nations have faced similar trials before us. We must learn from others and teach them what we know and what we have survived.
What happened in Srebrenica serves as an explanation to all people, a guide, and a lesson for those who fear God. We do not lose hope in God’s mercy that He will heal the hearts of those responsible for the fate of the world. We draw our hope and courage from His words, with which He addresses us: ‘And do not lose heart and do not grieve; you will be victorious if you are true believers’ (Al Imran, 3:139).
Dear brothers and sisters,
Let us not allow the dishonorable to discourage us from the path of truth. Let Srebrenica and its testimonies serve as motivation and encouragement for us to work even harder to spread the truth about what happened. Each of us can contribute — in our homes, schools, mosques, universities, and in conversations with people worldwide. The truth about Srebrenica is needed by everyone on Earth.
Let Srebrenica be a symbol of peace and reconciliation, a sign of hope and encouragement, showing that we are ready to face truth and justice, no matter how difficult it may be. We believe that only the truth can save us from delusion and bring us back to the right path.
Our Lord, Forgive us and our brothers and sisters who preceded us in faith, Be merciful to us on the Day of Judgment.
Our Lord, Do not punish us if we forget or make a mistake! Do not place on us a burden like the one You placed on those before us, and do not impose upon us what we cannot bear.
Erase our sins and forgive us. And have mercy on us. Amen!
The Cordoba Foundation hosted a major event in London on 11 June 2024, to launch Lobbying for Zionism on Both Sides of the Atlantic, the latest work by acclaimed Israeli historian Prof Ilan Pappe.
The event was organised in partnership with the Middle East Monitor (MEMO) and One World Publications.
Attended by hundreds of people in a packed central London venue, the book launch began with a poignant moment as Dr Anas Altikriti, founder and CEO of The Cordoba Foundation, led a moment of silence in remembrance and prayers for the lives lost in Israel’s military operation in Gaza and across Palestine.
Published by One World Publications, Lobbying for Zionism on Both Sides of the Atlantic delves into the intricate and powerful networks that advocate for Zionist interests in both the US and Europe. Pappe, a professor of History at the University of Exeter and author of the bestselling The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine, provided insightful commentary on his latest work.
The event featured a distinguished panel of speakers who offered their perspectives on the book and its themes. Palestinian academic, physician, and author Dr Ghada Karmi praised the book as “impressive,” noting its exploration of the origins of Christian Zionism.
Dr Daud Abdullah, director of Middle East Monitor and co-organiser of the event, emphasised the significance of Pappe’s work, stating that it goes beyond previous attempts to examine the Israeli lobby by investigating its operations in Europe and Britain.
Prof Nur Masalha, a Palestinian historian and associate member of SOAS, University of London, provided historical context, discussing the role of “millennial Christianity” and “restoration Christianity” in advancing the interests of the British Empire and the Zionist movement.
Altikriti moderated the conversation, allowing the panel to share their insights and engage with the audience in a question-and-answer session. His moderation throughout the evening facilitated a meaningful dialogue, highlighting the significance of Pappe’s work leaving no doubt about the book’s power to transform our understanding of Zionism.
Reflecting on the event, Altikriti said, “the launch of Professor Pappe’s new book marks a significant historical moment on multiple levels. The timing of this critical publication, coupled with the exceptional turnout that filled the venue to capacity, is particularly noteworthy. We are witnessing a paradigm shift in public discourse, undoubtedly influenced by the remarkable resilience and determination displayed by the people of Gaza in the face of unprecedented adversity. This shift unfolds amid a global order that urgently needs reform, one that can effectively hold rogue states accountable and ensure that no entity, regardless of power or influence, operates above the law.”
Dr Abdullah Faliq, Managing Director at The Cordoba Foundation and the lead organiser of the event, commended Prof Pappe on his new book and thanked him for making time to engage with the attendees, some of whom had travelled from across the UK and even abroad. “The relevance of this book launch is especially critical today as we see Zionism increasingly aligning with Far-Right elements and other extremist ideologies. This unholy alliance, built on shared xenophobic and nationalist sentiments, poses a significant threat to minority communities and democratic values.”
Faliq further added “Pappe’s book sheds light on recent efforts on both sides of the Atlantic to conflate anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism and this discussion is particularly important as people in the US, UK and around the globe go to the polls. It serves as a timely warning about the potential impact of these lobbying efforts on electoral processes and policy-making.”
The event by The Cordoba Foundation with MEMO and OneWorld Publications not only launched an important scholarly work but also initiated a crucial dialogue about the far-reaching implications of Zionist lobbying in the West. As global attention remains focused on the ongoing situation in Palestine, Lobbying for Zionism and the discussions it has sparked provide valuable tools for understanding and addressing the complex dynamics that shape international responses to the conflict.

Special message by Shaykh Rachid Ghannouchi from prison to The Cordoba Foundation roundtable
Friday, February 16, 2024
I am in prison today because I called for the values of national democracy, which is part of universal democracy, and because the conflict in Tunisia is a conflict between democracy and non-democracy.
Some of the enemies of democracy rely on modernity as a basis to exclude Islamic opponents. We in Tunisia were founded on the values of Islam, and we do not find any justification to exclude those who disagree with us or those who believe in Islam with a different vision, because we do not see that there is an official spokesman for Islam.
I am in prison because a significant portion of the so-called Tunisian modernists are non-democratic. They call for a democracy that is just for them, an exclusionary democracy. Whereas We are in a struggle for a Tunisia for all and for a democracy that includes everyone inside Tunisia and outside Tunisia.
The country today is governed by the dualism of good and evil, right and wrong, patriotism and treason. This is the essence of the coup of July 25, 2021: the monopoly of patriotism, the monopoly of Islam, and the monopoly of righteousness. Therefore, the existing regime is in a relentless war against democracy in all its meanings. This approach cannot bring Tunisians together because God created people different.
The current system sees difference as a curse, but we see it as a mercy.
Palestine exposed the shortcomings of democracy within the framework of the nation state.
Democracy, as a mechanism, is one of the best mechanisms that the human political mind has produced for consensus and reaching settlements between differences and a way to resolve disputes away from violence.
But when democracy is confined to a particular group and is imprisoned within the trenches of nationalism, race, and colour, its mechanisms break down in more than one case – especially in the face of major challenges such as the Palestinian question.
The flaw, then, is not in the idea of democracy, but in the idea of the nation-state outside the framework of ethics and the values of equality for all human beings. There is no framework for ethics outside the framework of man as God’s khalifa / vicegerent on earth, the one who is entrusted to look after this world. Therefore, we demand democracy and add it to our understanding of Islam so that it emerges from the confines and the narrowness of the individual and the group to the vastness of humanity.

Chatfuel customer support bots field frequently asked questions, while also recommending products based on those same questions.

What we like about Chatbot
Its exit-intent messages aim to prevent visitors from leaving, so they can help businesses convert more sales.

Creating A Simple WordPress Plugin With 6 AI Chatbots.
There are many chatbots available for your WordPress website and the features can often become overwhelming. Adapt chatbots to your visitor’s preferences with a personalized conversational experience. Let our experts help you understand how to leverage your business with web & WhatsApp chatbots. Learn how to update your WhatsApp Business profile information to provide credibility and useful information to your customers. Another way to create a chatbot for your website is to use IBM’s Watson Assistant.
What we like about Collect.chat
Trigger the conversation to start when visitors hit a specific spot on the webpage, or at a certain moment when they’re most engaged. In HubSpot, conversations are automatically saved and logged in the conversation inbox and timeline, so your team can view how conversations were carried out. Chatbots can also be used to book appointments and meetings, answer support questions, and qualify leads. While WordPress is a great website builder for those on a budget, it lacks any chatbot functionality. It’s difficult to handle all your customer requests manually, especially if you’re aiming for fast response times, so it helps to automate these workflows with your own chatbot.
It also learns from conversations so that it doesn’t offer up information that your visitors aren’t actually searching for. If it gets in trouble and can’t answer, it can ID the chat topic and send the person to a human support person. Adding chatbots to a website is one of the easiest ways to make it more engaging and helpful.
The tutorial recommends placing the HTML Widget at the bottom of the page for better organization. If you like, you can add a chatbot to your WordPress site with a plugin like WP Chatbot.

In this list, we’ll be going over each chatbot’s key features, pricing, and pros and cons to help you decide which one best suits your professional needs. Whichever option you got for, you’ll be providing your WordPress website visitors with a personalised experience that addresses their queries effectively.
Tidio is another popular chatbot platform with WordPress integration, but it may not be as good as some of the other options on the market. While it has a high rating of 4.8/5 from over 355 reviews, it may not offer as many advanced features as some of its competitors. The chat widget is customizable to fit your site’s design, including the color, theme, avatar, button type, and position.
While not as straightforward as the previous tool, Watson is very versatile and learns more with every use. Answering common questions via email can be a big resource drain for smaller companies. With a lot of chatbots on the market that work with WordPress websites, it can be hard to narrow them down. However, if you want the chatbot to appear only when a trigger is met, then you can select the third option. If you pick ‘Only show the chat launcher’, then visitors will have to click on your chatbot to see its prompts. Once you are done, scroll down to the ‘Visitor information and behavior’ section.
