This begins thousands of years ago. You must have heard about the Hitler
when there were worst circumstances in between Christians and jews . The
jews thought let’s not get mingled with them any more .The Austro
Hungarian journalist here he started a new political movement in his 1896
pamphlet. “Zionism” They wanted to get separate country for jews so in
1881 , the first large scale migration of jews was seen in the palestine area
… And built many settlements in the area and started living there… At that
time there were no israel, Gaza or west Bank that used to come under
ottoman empire.. From 1918_1948 the entire palestine area was got under
the control of British govt. At this time in Germany Hitler got the political
power…. At the same time around 1940’s(PNM) palestine nationalist
movement had also begun therefore, Palestinians were demanding their
own country that has been snatched by jews who had come from the
different place to oppression .. In the year 1948 the British government left
the palestine they had occupied.. The United Nations keep 57 percent of
the area for the jews and only around 43℅ for palestine. Therefore, in 1948
Israel country was born, that was the moment when palestinian realized
we would have to suffer more for the land that even belongs to no one but
ours… The first war takes place namely Arab Israeli war of 1948 and Israel
won after committed oppression… In 1949 After ended up the war all the
area that belongs to Palestinian had turned under the jews and more than
700,000 Palestinians became homeless because of Israel… In 1967 second
war started for around six days and won again. Israel didn’t only snatched
the Gaza Strip , west Bank but also the large Egyptian peninsula gets
occupied by Israel after this war. Therefore, palastine wanted their own
country… For their benefits and selfishness USA and Israel like country
tried to declare Hamas as terrorist organization as it was not in actual… If
you see them from the perspective of the USA and Israel who wanted to
abolish them from everywhere then it seems terrorist organization, but if
you stand for the truth and see it from the perspective you must be, then
it’s the freedom they are demanding for, It’s their own country they arehelpless for ..its all about the peace that had been snatching from the
Israel.. From 1967 to 1980’s Israel had been more than ten years occupied
the Gaza Strip and the West Bank… During this period isreal started to
establish their colonies in the West Bank and made settlements by
supporting Israel government… Israel got against the international laws… In
1994 palastine got some bits of land in Gaza where there are density of
population living over there . .. In 2002 violent protest started where Israel
killed uncountable Palestinians. Israel started building walls around
settlements..which was the land of palastine .in the West Bank check
points are placed in oder to destroy Palestine… In 2006 Hamas won the
election by defeating PLO(Palestine Liberation Organization) . . In 2007 a
civil war takes place between these parties in Palestine .. This war is known
as battle of Gaza… The palestine had divided into two parts;the Gaza Strip
comes under Hamas and the West Bank area is controlled by Fatah and PLO
(Palestine Liberation Organization).. This whole story openly makes people
understand how oppressive Isreal are ; that the fanatics in Israel demands
that the entire west Bank area and whole Jerusalem as well which basically
belongs to palestine..

It’s undoubtedly not conflict but genocide, mass murder.. Conflict should
be two sided but it’s Israel who has been killing the children, women and
other people living there… They are dropping bombs and doing wrong with
women and lamentably the world is silent.. No one has set ringtones,tv
channels are no where, politicians, leaders are silent. where is human kind
this time?

George Floyd was kneed on the neck by a police officer ,leading to his
death… Which sparked awakening across the World. Media, tv channels,
politicians, celebrities, and the leaders all stood up just for a single person.
But here are Muslims that no one is stepping forward. Gaza has become no
less than any prison . Nobody can enter or leave. Even birds don’t bother to
take step back to Gaza because the birds of mothers were killed by the
cruel ones. Palestinians are calling Salah_ad_din . .. They are calling out to
the dead for the help, where have living gone. ?

When they oppressors dropped bombs on the palestine for the first time,”
they said we couldn’t sleep peacefully that night thinking about what
response Muslims would give tomorrow morning. But when we didn’t see
any response we ourselves got shocked what is this man? Where are
muslims, Muslim leaders .. No one even uttered a word. ”
It’s well said by a gentleman Martin luther king, jr. That “FREEDOM IS
NEVER VOLUNTARILY GIVEN BY THE OPPRESSOR; IT MUST BE DEMANDED
BY THE OPPRESSED. ”

Masjid al aqsa is the place our prophets built , where they prostrated. .. Our
prophet Muhammad (saw) ascends from Masjid Al Aqsa to the
heaven…prophet Musa wished when I depart from this duniyah(world)
my grave should be near to Masjid al aqsa. Even today it’s the same place
that Israel god forbid, wants to destroy…… For Palestinians in sha allah it’s
the prophet’s promise of paradise. . It’s a massive test for we sinners how
long we could be silent..not uttering even a single word to Israel . It’s time
to do something for our fellow Muslims .Today palestine is suffering from
oppression, tomorrow we would be , today they are losing their children,
their parents..tomorrow we would be . What is the use of our faith
(imaan)what about our promises to Almighty allah we have made since
long . Today, what would be the prophet Muhammad( saw )thinking ,
seeing that this ummah couldn’t do anything for fellow Muslims
(palestine).. We have heard and seen plenty of examples of cowardice
before, but wallahi (by swear of allah ) we have never seen such an
example that Palestinians are being murdered by Israel and we are here
watching it without action. The places are different but the declaration of
faith remains the same “LA ILAHA ILLALLAH and MUHAMMADUR
RASULULLAH”( SAW)… There is no God but allah, Muhammad (saw) is the
messenger of allah….
