This film traces the roots of takfirism, an unorthodox school of thinking that attribute itself to pure Islam in modern history, but that in reality has nothing to do with real Islam. The documentary explains the history of the so-called “Arab Spring” or Islamic Awakening, and how it was infiltrated and derailed by the Global Arrogance “intelligence agencies”, and through the use of Takfiri “clerics” – such as those from
