Israeli Massacre of Gaza Humanitarian Aid Activists

The Jewish State today launched an attack on a convoy of ships carrying humanitarian aid to the Gaza strip. So far 19 activists have been killed in the raid by Israeli commandos. True to form the coward Jewish State’s army shot and killed unarmed civilians, just as it did during the attack on Gaza 18 months ago where young children, babies, women, disabled and the elderly were indiscriminately bombed and shot at.

The list of atrocities committed by the Jewish State in this year alone includes stealing organs from dead Palestinians, torturing and sexually abusing Palestinian children, digging up a 12th century Muslim graveyard in al-Quds and threatening to nuke Makkah and Madinah.

Predictably there has been international condemnation from many Muslim and western countries but these are simply harsh words that will never result in any practical action to stop the Jewish State’s atrocities.

Three of the aid ships were provided by Insani Yardim Vakfi (IHH), a Turkish aid organisation with links to the Turkish government including the lead ship Mavi Marmara which had an estimated 600 Turkish passengers on board. As a result of this direct attack on Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkish PM said, “It should be known that we will not stay silent and unresponsive in the face of this inhuman state terror.”

Erdogan’s response to the last Gaza attack was simply strong words and there is no evidence to suggest anything more from him this time or from the inept Arab leaders.

When Erdogan was the Mayor of Istanbul he recited the following poem in public which landed him in prison.

“Mosques are our barracks,
domes our helmets,
minarets our bayonets,
believers our soldiers.
This holy army guards my religion.
Almighty our journey is our destiny,
the end is martyrdom”

If Erdogan truly believes in the above words then the time has come for him to walk in the footsteps of the great Khaleefah Harun al-Rashid who when confronted with the Roman Emperor Nicephorus refusal to abide by his treaty with the Khilafah, sent the following letter:

“From Haroon Al Rashid, Khaleefah of the Faithful to Nicephorus, the Roman dog: I have read your letter. You will not hear, you will see my reply.” The Khaleefah then sent a huge army to the Byzantine Empire and forced Nicephorus to abide by the treaty.

The Muslim Ummah has had enough of strong words and condemnation. Now we want action.

The only acceptable Islamic response to the occupation of Muslim lands and an attack on Muslims is war by the Muslim armies. Anything less is unacceptable.

The Generals in the Muslim armies must disobey their Presidents and their masters in Washington and intervene militarily to liberate the land of Palestine so this much needed aid can flood in. All of the Jewish State’s wealth will become ghaneema (war booty) and given to the Muslims of Palestine to rebuild their shattered lives.

لبَّيْكَ اللَّهُمَّ وَمَلايِينٌ تَنْتَظِرُ تَلْبِيَةَ النِّداءِ وَلَمْ يَمْنَعْها مِنَ التَّلْبِيَةِ الْمالُ وَالْوَلَدُ بَلْ مَنَعَهُمْ حُدُودٌ وَحَواجِزٌ وَصَدُّ طُغاةٍ جَبابِرَةٍ تَحَكَّمُواْ بِالرِّقابِ وَالْعِبادِ .

Oh Allah! We are at Your service, millions are waiting for the call of jihad, and we are not prevented by a shortage of either the willing youth or wealth, rather we are prevented by the borders and barriers imposed by the menace of Taghoot who have subjugated us.
