Confinity 

Confinity is reimagining what digital platforms can be.

As CEO and Founder, I lead a mission-driven team to build a transformative platform where authenticity thrives, connections are nurtured, and legacies are preserved for generations.

Unlike engagement-driven social platforms, Confinity offers a privacy-first digital sanctuary where individuals can celebrate their true selves and build lasting legacies. It’s not just about personal stories — we’re creating a global archive of cultural heritage, from historic universities to iconic landmarks, ensuring that the essence of human knowledge and achievement is preserved and shared across generations.

At Confinity, we’re committed to blending technology with ethics, providing a space where identity and culture are protected, not commodified.

Our vision is guided by a world-class advisory board featuring leaders from Visa, Microsoft, Google, McKinsey, Oracle, Forbes, and cultural institutions across the UAE, Asia, and Europe.

Common sense is finally making a comeback.

There is no greater threat to collective humanity than a state committing genocide in real time while holding the world hostage with nuclear ambiguity (Samson option) and political blackmail.

When even the Oxford Union can see it, the world has officially woken up.

✨ Confinity | The private home for your family’s story.

MAHMOUD HENIA

They are enemies of humanity. 

What happened to Charlie Kirk happens to children every single hour in Palestine.

(136 children massacred daily late 23/ early 24).

We have to stop comparing those responsible/complicit to Nazis. 

They are much worse.

Hazim Alsadek

There’s a split inside Israel most people never hear about

The European Zionist elite on one side

The Jews from the Arab and Middle Eastern world on the other

Mizrahim are Jews from Iraq, Yemen, Morocco, Syria, Tunisia, Egypt and across the region

Arab in language, food, culture and history

But when they arrived in Israel, they were told to erase it all

Put in transit camps
Stripped of Arabic
Stripped of identity

Told to become “more European”

That wound never healed
It still shapes the country

Ashkenazi led institutions sit at the top
Mizrahim are the majority, more rooted, and still living with the memory of being treated as less

Every crisis exposes this divide because it was never addressed

Just buried

And here’s the truth people avoid
Anger is pushed sideways, never upward

Ashkenazi against Mizrahi
Both against Palestinians

Everyone fighting each other while the machine stays untouched

So what is the machine

It is the state power complex built by the early European Zionist elite

Not ordinary people
A system

The core is Mossad, Shin Bet, IDF intelligence and the Defense Ministry

They shaped the ideology, the strategy and the state itself

Around them are lobbying networks in the US and UK, donor pipelines, media pressure groups and political influence circles that keep Western leaders in line

Then come the defense and surveillance corporations tied into global arms giants
Billions flowing in both directions

All protected by intelligence partnerships that create mutual dependency

Israel trades regional access and cyber tools
The West trades silence and support

This is how the system survives
Split people with shared roots
Redirect the pain
Rewrite the story

But a country built on erasing people cannot find peace

When erasure becomes normal, violence becomes normal

So the real question is this
When do people finally see the machine behind the suffering

Because the moment people stop fighting the battles the system assigns them, the whole structure begins to crack

That is how genocides end
That is how truth breaks through
That is how peace begins

Not through hate
Not through revenge

Through remembering that human life comes before any identity a state tries to force on you

Until people see that, the cycle repeats

Genocide ends when humanity steps out of the script & unites against the head of the snake. 

And that moment has to be now

No alternative text description for this image

God is empowering humanity as those who do evil ramp up their rhetoric. 

We are much more than our physical bodies & we are starting to remember. 

There is a great awakening happening. 

We were never meant to be slaves pretending to be free.
