The Middle East is descending further into war and instability, and the conflicts to come will be existential both for the region and for the global economy. Leading mainstream media outlets in the West are heavily biased: from ingrained racism to investor influence, the scope of analysis and predictions they can offer are limited, as they are intrinsically tied to the Western war machine. Middle Eastern sources, meanwhile, often operate under governmental censorship, which constrains independent analysis.
MENA Unleashed is dedicated to documenting the milestones along this path, from Saudi missteps to subtle shifts in strategic alignment. We are an independent organisation. Without government or corporate backing, we rely on paid subscriptions to continue our work. Being from the region, we are committed to reporting on its ever-changing landscape in the most uncensored way possible, even as we compete with Western and Arab regime-backed outlets.
As tensions rise and military confrontations increasingly threaten regimes, these mainstream outlets will face even stricter censorship under government crackdowns. Voices like ours will grow rarer, and more valuable, but we cannot sustain our work without your support. Please consider purchasing a paid subscription to our Substack to help keep us going. If that is not possible, a free subscription still makes a meaningful difference.
