Comment:
On 20 February 2024, the US for the third time, vetoed a Security Council resolution that demanded an immediate and unconditional cease-fire in Gaza. In flagrant disregard of the Palestinians’ right to life and dignity, America claimed that a ceasefire would interfere with its efforts to broker a prisoner swap and a temporary truce. According to the New York Times, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, said that, “the resolution would jeopardize Washington’s continuing negotiation efforts with Qatar and Egypt to broker a deal that would release hostages from Gaza in exchange for a temporary humanitarian cease-fire.” (Source)
The Prophet (saw) said, «لاَ يُلْدَغُ الْمُؤْمِنُ مِنْ جُحْرٍ وَاحِدٍ مَرَّتَيْنِ» “A believer is not stung twice from the same hole.” [Bukhari and Muslim]. There is no incentive to accept the US’s proposal for a temporary cessation. It offers the Palestinians nothing but hollow words and more misery. Previously, over a 100 prisoners were released in exchange for a few hundred Palestinians held unlawfully, for a one-week respite from ‘Israel’s’ incessant bombing. However, ‘Israel’ soon resumed its attacks, with more intensity and brutality. In all of this, the US pretends to be a leader and a peacemaker. It has become clear to the world that it is an accomplice to genocide and a warmonger. The Zionist entity has no reason to halt its aggression, knowing that the US has given it a carte blanche to continue its genocide.
The Gazans are trapped in a nightmarish
prison, with no way out and no hope. Even with a pause in the violence would not end their torment. They would still face the danger of dying from disease and hunger. Jewish demonstrators obstruct the humanitarian aid from reaching them. The health facilities of Gaza have been demolished. The Muslims still face the peril of being wiped out by Netanyahu’s ultimate aim of erasing Gaza and its people from the map, may Allah (swt) forbid.
There is a nefarious agenda behind this veto. The US does not want the bloodshed to stop, before it completes its grand plan for the region. According to the Washington Post on 14 February 2024, “The Biden administration and a small group of Middle East partners are rushing to complete a detailed, comprehensive plan for long-term peace between ‘Israel’ and Palestinians, including a firm timeline for the establishment of a Palestinian state, that could be announced as early as the next several weeks.” (Source). The US could not risk a permanent cessation of hostilities to disrupt this nefarious plan. It prefers to give Netanyahu a license to kill the Palestinians with complete and utter impunity. The US wants to present the permanent cessation of hostilities as a trade-off for the treacherous two-state solution.
We Muslims must reject the American plan. It will give Muslims an insignificant Palestinian state, whose security and provisions are in the hands of the Zionist entity, in return for surrendering Blessed Land of Palestine. Islam does not allow anything less than the liberation of all of Palestine, from the river to the sea. Palestine is an Islamic land… Umar al-Farooq (ra) opened it… Salahudin Al-Ayubi liberated it… and Khaleefah Abdul Hameed II protected it. It is not for sale. It does not accept division between its people, and the one who occupied it, expelling its people from it. Its solution is not a two-state solution. Instead, its solution is as Allah Al-Aziz, Al-Jabbar said, and His (swt) Saying is the true solution,
[وَاقْتُلُوهُمْ حَيْثُ ثَقِفْتُمُوهُمْ وَأَخْرِجُوهُمْ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَخْرَجُوكُمْ]
“And kill them [in battle] wherever you overtake them, and expel them from wherever they have expelled you.” [TMQ Surah Al-Baqarah 2:191]. We must demand a complete eradication of the Zionist entity, which is a military base for the Americans in the heart of the Ummah. We must reject the colonialist plan to surrender most of Palestine, after seven decades of sacrifice. We must work for the reestablishment of the Islamic Khilafah (Caliphate) on the Method of Prophethood, which will mobilize armies for the liberation of all occupied lands.
