This interview with Wadah Khanfar has been another eye-opening moment since this nightmare started. I am Greek, grew up in Germany and now live in the US. He is right that as painful as it is we have to conceptualise this genocide (in addition to opposing it in any way we can). Thank you so much for sharing your perspective and your unique approach that not only looks at the current events but also weaves in lessons from the past and possibilities for a more peaceful existence.

Thank you for the hopeful tone you ended with. Your knowledge of history and contemporary affairs is deep. I'm leaving this page more hopeful that I will, In Sha Allah, see a free Palestine in my lifetime. I'm not a Palestine, not even an Arab, but this unadulterated evil keeps me awake on several days. May Allah in His infinite mercy ease the suffering.

[@Cloudchopper-x1r]

Same here. I am not Arab either but was so hopeful with the Arab Spring in Egypt adn then very sad when it fizzled, overcome once again by Western leaders with Arab leaders also partaking in their money and power. Similar in a way to American Civil rights movement. Which was a people movement but very soon hijacked by the White leaders with some black puppets who also wanted some of that power adn money but never really cared much for their fellow blacks after that. Al-Sharpton is a perfect model for that.

[@LNic-an-tSaoir-Éire]

As an Irish woman, I’ve advocated for Palestine for many years. I don’t trust ‘man kind’ in general- but what I have witnessed over this past year, I am horrified, disgusted and ashamed of western society! I mean who tF do they think they are? How can anyone with a soul, with a heart- with an ounce of humanity, commit such evil cruel atrocities to innocent people, men, women, children, babies, unborn, animals, livelihoods. For what? Why can’t they just allow every nation to live independently and leave them alone. How could they believe that nobody would push back against such controlling regimes? It’s absolutely mind boggling. My heart breaks for everyone in Gaza, we’ve all borne witness to things none of us should ever see because they should never happen in a civilised world. We can only pray that they will be held to account. We will never ever ever forget. Ever. As a mother and human I wish for you all lives of autonomy and peace and opportunities on your own land. I’m truly sorry for everything. Even writing ‘sorry’ feels disgusting- like who am I to say this, it’s such a simple word and nothing can undo what has been done. Nothing. And to the ignorant bigots who feel that condemning anyone who supports any Middle Eastern country should be or do something else- you’re fierce quick. Well done to you. May I suggest you just sit down, not care and be racist in silence. 🤫

[@jmcc2275]

@@jmcc2275 It’s impressive how confidently you presume to know my beliefs and background without a clue who I am. Compassion and advocacy for human rights aren’t limited by geography-they’re a reflection of humanity. Perhaps expanding your worldview would serve you better than clinging to ignorance. In the meantime, your silence on matters you don’t understand would be an improvement.

America can't build anything any more because it takes years to just get the approval from 20 different agencies. When we bought and moved into a mobile home on an acre there was a dead tree, totally lifeless with rotten broken down branches. We felled it down when the neighbor said that we could not do that because it was an oak and people are forbidden to kill oak trees. Since it had no leaves - it was spring Mid May - just dead matter we could not tell what kind of tree it was. But that's bureaucracy. it helps no one.

All the talk about being anti-Israeli or anti- Palestinian. You don,t have to be anti anybody to have the decency to want all the killing to stop. 42,400 Palestinians - More than 42,400 Palestinians have been reported killed in Gaza. The majority of these casualties are civilians, and the conflict has also driven most of the enclave's 2.3 million people from their homes . 75,000 tons of bombs has been dropped on Gaza within the past year.

[@islamic_eschatology01]

Dhul-Qarnain was granted immense power by Allah and tasked with using that power for good. One of his notable acts was building a strong barrier to restrain the corruption of Ya'juj and Ma'juj, a force associated with corruption.(Qur’an <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1089">18:9</a>7-98) In the modern world, Iran’s political role can be viewed in a symbolic light in relation to Dhul-Qarnain’s resistance against the corrupt forces. However, any attempt to claim a direct parallel must be approached with caution, as the ultimate outcomes and divine wisdom are with Allah alone. Allah reminds us in the Qur'an: "And We made from among them leaders guiding by Our command when they were patient and [when] they were certain of Our signs." (Qur'an <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1944">32:24</a>). From a hadith perspective, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) warned that near the end of times, nations would experience great trials, including corruption, fitnah (temptation), and wars. The role of a nation or leader standing for justice, akin to Dhul-Qarnain, is to ensure that they act within the framework of Islamic principles of justice, as instructed by the Qur'an and the Sunnah. Historical mighty 2-horned king Cyrus who ruled Persia and Median, once resisted these Corruptors by checkmating. Is this the 2nd "Qarn"? Ultimately, it is Allah who raises nations and individuals to act as stewards of justice, as exemplified by the story of Dhul-Qarnain. Therefore, any contemporary leader or nation aspiring to embody such characteristics must follow the prophetic example and act in accordance with justice, humility, and faith.

By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God.

We have the historical phrases "know your place" "respect your betters" these are the values that have allowed them to commit genocides around the world because the idea some people are better is baked into the history and culture - and ideas the ruling class seem to be clinging too.

If there is going to be a revolution in the Near East and north Africa (not the Middle East because the Middle East is Arab countries like Saudi and GCC) and Iran, the first thing they must do is stop working in arab countries! People from Levante and North Africa often work in arab states (eg GCC) because money is better. This strengthens the arab economy and weakens the Near East and north African economy.
