The Crime of Israel and its Western Partners and the Crime of the Muslims

Dr. Firoz Mahboob Kamal

Israel continues its genocidal war with more ferocity and intensity in Gaza. It has no redline; it can commit any crime anywhere in the Muslim World without fear of any consequence. So it now aims at total annihilation.

The USA, the UK and Germany continue to support and send more weapons to Israel to intensify the genocide and the destruction. Because of the western support, even condemning Israel in a world body like the UN is impossible -let alone stopping the genocidal war.

It is not even possible to prosecute Israel in the International Criminal Court for any extent of horrendous crime. So it looks Israel is unstoppable from any crime of any intensity. Even if Israel drops a nuclear bomb on any Muslim city, it will not be possible to condemn in the UN because of the US and the UK veto.     

Saudi Arabia and other rich gulf countries continue to finance the USA with trillions of dollars to help produce more weapons of mass destruction for Israel. Saudi Arabia is making more efforts to stop war in Ukraine, but not in Gaza. Egypt receives an annual  bribe of 1.3 billion dollar from the USA to keep its silence on the Israeli genocide. The same case is with the neighbouring Jordan. These are indeed the friends of Israel and the enemies of the Ummah. Their inaction is a testimony to that.

The  leaders of other Muslim countries also continue to keep their silence -as if they have seen nothing and have listened nothing. The common Muslim people, too, keep their silence and stay away even from the street protests. Therefore, big street protests are seen more in London, Paris, Berlin, Washington, but not in Karachi, Cairo, Riyadh, Istanbul or Jakarta.

Such silence of the Muslims is encouraging Israel to continue its genocide. Israel has already killed more than 50 thousands Palestinians and destroyed 80 percent of the houses in Gaza. So shame on the Muslim leaders and also on the common Muslim men and women for their criminal inaction.

Killing a man is crime; but inaction is also a severe crime -as it allows killers to continue the genocide. So in Islam, such inaction is punishable. It will take to hellfire in the hereafter. The Muslims – especially the neighbouring Arab Muslims are complicit in the Israeli crimes. Now it is the time to show their solidarity with their Palestinian brothers and sisters. Allah Sub’hana wa Ta’la -the All Seer is watching their role.  07/04/2025
