US Preparing to Abandon ‘Two-State Solution’ and Permanently Legalise Jewish Control of Palestinian Colony

The US already accepted the practical occupation of the entire of Palestinian land by the illegal Jewish entity more than 50 years ago. Now, under the Trump administration, America is preparing to permanently legalise this colonial arrangement. The Palestinian Authority is only now waking up to the reality of America’s intentions. According to the Middle East Monitor:

Palestinian Foreign Minister Riyad Al-Malki called the US’ proposed peace plan a deal to force Palestinian to surrender yesterday.

Speaking at a UN Security Council meeting to discuss illegal Israeli settlement construction, Al-Malki dismissed the US peace effort, stressing that all indications are it will be “conditions for surrender”.

He also pointed out that illegal Israeli settlements are at the “core” of the “obstruction of peace”.

Indonesian Foreign Minister, Retno Marsudi, described illegal settlement construction as “unacceptable” and urged the UN council to take a firmer stance against Israel.

Marsudi stressed: “Inaction is not an option.”

The Palestinian Authority (PA) has been boycotting the US administration since December 2017 when US President Donald Trump unilaterally recognised Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and then moved the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem in May 2018.

The administration of US President Donald Trump has said that it will be unveiling its peace plans, dubbed the “deal of the century”, after the Muslim holy month of Ramadan comes to an end in early June.

The Palestinian Authority itself laid the basis for America’s new initiative at its establishment in 1994 when it practically accepted to govern the people of Palestine under the control of the illegal Jewish entity. America is only legalising an arrangement that the PA itself has already been practising for decades.

The real solution to the issue of Palestine is the overthrow of the agent leadership that has taken charge of Muslims’ affairs. America is indeed a superpower but its ability to project its power across the world deep into Muslim land is totally dependent on the complicity of our own leaders and rulers, who remain intellectual and political agents to the West. With Allah’s permission, the re-established righteous Islamic Khilafah (Caliphate) State on the method of the Prophet (saw) shall unify all Muslim lands and expel the foreign disbelievers from all occupied territories and make al-Quds the capital of the Khilafah State as foretold in many hadith of the Prophet (saw), such as that, «يكون في بيت المقدس بيعة هدى»“There will be, in Bait-ul-Maqdis, a (rightly guided) Bay’a”.

US Intensifying Pressure on Iran to Ensure No Complications over Palestine Solution

America is rapidly building up military pressure on Iran in addition to political, economic and financial pressure ahead of its new Palestine solution. According to Reuters:

Acting U.S. Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan has approved a new deployment of Patriot missiles to the Middle East, a U.S. official told Reuters on Friday, in the latest U.S. response to what Washington sees as a growing threat from Iran.

The decision further bolsters U.S. defenses and comes after the Trump administration expedited the deployment of a carrier strike group and sent bombers to the Middle East following what it said were troubling indications of possible preparations for an attack by Iran…

The decision to send Patriot missiles to the region would mark a reversal of sorts, coming just months after the Pentagon removed several Patriot batteries from the Middle East…

Tensions between Iran and the United States have escalated sharply in recent weeks…

It was America that brought Iran into Syria and Iraq and it is America now that wants Iran out. America, fearful of entering its armies again into Muslim lands, needed Iranian ground troops to stabilise the American occupation of Iraq and suppress the Syrian revolution. The simple Iranian leadership are easily attracted to American temptations and just as easily pressured by American threats. Iran will accept the American plan for Palestine without even a semblance of protest.

Pakistan’s Imran Khan Cedes Economic Management to IMF

Despite all of Imran Khan’s fiery rhetoric against the IMF, it seems that of all Pakistan’s leaders he has been the fastest to crumble in front of them, apparently changing his top financial team on IMF instructions. According to the Dawn:

The government came under fire in the Senate on Friday for what the opposition described as outsourcing the country’s economic management to the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

Taking part in the discussion on an adjournment motion on the recent increase in the prices of petroleum products, Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader Raza Rabbani said that the IMF was currently in the process of dictating the budget for the next financial year.

He likened the situation to an agreement signed by the then Mughal emperor with the East India Company following his defeat in 1765. He said the revenue officers had been replaced by the company’s men who looted the subcontinent’s wealth to take it to England. Mr Rabbani said Pakistan’s economy appeared to have been handed over to the IMF in the same fashion.

He said the previous governments had also approached the IMF but the nature of agreements had never been like a sellout. He said it was obvious that the finance minister had been replaced by the IMF’s man.

The PPP leader said a serving official of the IMF had been appointed governor of the State Bank of Pakistan. He said the appointment of the new FBR chairman was a clear case of conflict of interests as he would be dealing with the business houses he used to provide consultancy with as a partner in A.F. Ferguson.

Mr Rabbani said there were reports that the government would further increase gas and electricity tariff. He said it was also heard that the IMF was seeking withdrawal of Rs700 billion tax exemptions. He criticised the PM’s adviser on finance for putting the Pakistan Steel Mills (PSM) on the list of entities the government wanted to privatise.

Rulers like Imran Khan talk tough only to win elections. But his intentions was apparent even then, as he would always praise Western thinking, Western solutions and Western institutions, even though these have failed even the West themselves as anyone can realise if they are able to see past the West’s media projection of themselves. Muslims have suffered enough by following the disbelieving secular Capitalist Imperialist West. Our true salvation lies in returning to the detailed evidences of the Qur’an and Sunnah, which provide precise solutions in the form of the Ahkam Sharia to all current problems that we are confronted with. The re-established righteous Islamic Khilafah (Caliphate) State on the method of the Prophet (saw) shall once more implement these solutions and, with the permission of Allah (swt), once again elevate Muslims to the position of the leading nation on Earth.
