Rituals of Belonging: An intimate story of identity and exile, now in five languages

In a world of rising walls, Rituals of Belonging unmasks the invisible ache of the outsider. It is an intimate exploration of identity, exile, and the heavy price of being "tolerated" but never truly accepted.

THE JOURNEY SO FAR

A Global Connection: What began as a personal story has resonated deeply, becoming a #1 Amazon bestseller with a loyal global audience.

A Shared Footprint: The book has crossed borders, available worldwide in English, Spanish, Arabic, German, and French, with a Portuguese edition in development.

The Voice of a Generation: A narrative speaking directly to the thousands caught in the crosshairs of cultural displacement and political upheaval.

THE URGENCY: WHY NOW?

 The world is watching the shifting fault lines of global migration. As sweeping geopolitical crackdowns and border security measures intensify marked by heightened surveillance and fractured communities these themes have moved from the page to the front page. From Western cities to the borders of Europe and the Middle East, the global "Othering" of human beings is the most pressing conflict of our time.

Rituals of Belonging provides the emotional heartbeat to these headlines, moving beyond clinical politics to the visceral reality of what it means to shrink yourself just to survive.

THE STORY

This book is for anyone who has ever entered a room and felt the quiet sting of rejection the glance that measures you before you speak, the silence that makes you fade. It captures the solitude of exile, not merely as distance from a homeland, but as a silent wound that settles in the heart.

It exposes the subtle cruelty in the raised eyebrow at a foreign name, or the cutting question: "Where are you really from?" It is an intimate, honest exploration of the exhaustion that comes with constantly justifying your right to exist.

THE DIASPORA JOURNEY

The narrative structure captures both the macro-pressure of a divided world and the micro-shocks of individual isolation. Moving seamlessly between global displacement and the quiet landscape of a soul trying to find solid ground, it offers powerful visual metaphors for the "invisible borders" we navigate daily.

What if AI never really rejected you? What if a person did?

The job application that disappeared. The loan denied in seconds. The opportunity that slipped away without a single explanation.

We blame the algorithm because it feels neutral. Clean. Objective. But algorithms don’t define standards. People do. Someone decided what “qualified” looks like. Someone built the system that quietly filters people out.

Here’s Why the System Denied Your Application

The AI vs. Humanity speaks to something many of us have lived through but rarely talk about. A job application disappears. A loan is denied in seconds. Housing slips away with no explanation. The answer is always the same: “the system decided.”

This book looks at what that really means. It shows how automated systems now shape real lives and quietly replace human judgment. Decisions that once involved context, conversation, and accountability are now made instantly, without anyone ever meeting you.

The AI vs. Humanity is not a book about computer science or technical jargon. It examines the people behind these systems and how authority has shifted from visible decision-makers to invisible structures that govern daily life without consent, transparency, or public debate.

The Doctrine of Obedience: Iran’s Recruitment Tactics

Understanding Iran’s power requires looking beyond missiles, sanctions, or nuclear negotiations. The real engine of influence lies in how Iran recruits, conditions, and binds individuals into long-term obedience. Its system is not accidental or reactive. It is deliberate, ideological, and designed to endure.

Iran’s recruitment strategy begins with identity. Religion is introduced not as a personal faith but as a political duty. Recruits are taught selective doctrines that glorify sacrifice, obedience, and martyrdom while discouraging doubt or moral questioning. Loyalty is redirected away from family or nation and reassigned to the Supreme Leader, portrayed as a divinely guided authority rather than a political figure. Over time, obedience itself becomes sacred, and disobedience is framed as betrayal of faith.

Poverty plays a central operational role. In fragile communities across Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen, economic hardship is leveraged as a recruitment tool. Iran’s networks offer salaries, food, education, healthcare, and social status. For many recruits, these groups provide the first sense of stability and belonging they have ever experienced. Loyalty is reinforced not only through belief but through dependency. Leaving the organization often means losing income, protection, and identity at the same time.

Education is another weapon. Religious schools, training camps, and cultural centers are used to reshape how recruits understand history and politics. Iran presents itself as a perpetual victim of Western aggression while portraying its proxies as defenders of the oppressed. Alternative narratives are filtered out. Repetition, isolation, and authority reinforce a worldview where violence is not only justified but necessary.

What makes this system resilient is its emotional design. Iran does not rely solely on fear. It builds brotherhood, ritual, and a sense of sacred mission. Fighters are convinced they are part of a timeless struggle that transcends borders and generations. This is why loyalty often survives battlefield losses, leadership deaths, and diplomatic shifts.

These dynamics are explored in detail in my video The Doctrine of Obedience, which breaks down how ideology, vulnerability, and deception sustain Iran’s global proxy warfare. For a deeper look at the financial and organizational machinery behind extremist systems, these themes are also examined in Terror Inc.: The Business of Hate and Animosity, available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DL4N6D9C

If ideology is the real source of power, then countering Iran requires confronting belief systems, not just weapons. What part of this recruitment system surprised you most?

THE STRUGGLE TO FIT IN

Have you ever felt pressure to change who you are just to fit in?

Many people experience this struggle in the workplace, at school, in social circles, and even among friends. This video explores the cost of belonging and what it takes to be accepted when identity, culture, or background quietly become conditions for inclusion.

Rituals of Belonging is a story about identity, belonging, and the feeling of being an outsider. While the novel follows immigrants navigating life in a new country, its message extends far beyond immigration. It speaks to anyone who has struggled with fitting in, acceptance, and the invisible rules that shape how we are expected to behave.

This video looks at the unspoken expectations of belonging, the exhaustion of constantly adjusting yourself, and the emotional toll of never knowing when you are “enough.” It reflects a universal human experience, the desire to belong without erasing who you are.
