#Hamas- has ruined the lives of Palestinians @MFA_SriLanka @SriLankaTweet

[Realign For Palestine @rfpalestine]

Gaza was not doomed to this fate. Before October 7, the Strip had universities, clinics, an economy, a generation intent on real progress. But Hamas squandered every opportunity and weaponized every resource. The blockade was not born of inevitability but of a movement that openly smuggled in weapons and turned Gaza into a terror state.

Over the years, Hamas redirected every institution – educational, healthcare, governmental – toward confrontation, making October 7 the culmination of a long-term strategy in which civilian life was subordinated to a war machine.

Gaza had options. Hamas extinguished them.

Antisemitism is sweeping across the world. The Hamas - Israeli conflict fuels it. Did Muslim dislike for the Jews begin in Islam's formative years?
Religious actors have a special duty to teach and preach Gods mercy for humanity.

[Mosab Hassan Yousef @MosabHasanYOSEF]

Sayyid Qutb, Egyptian firebrand and Muslim Brotherhood mastermind, was hanged in 1966. He authored Fi Zilal Al-Quran, the Quranic tafsir that burns in hearts across the Muslim world, from Cairo mosques to Jakarta madrasas. His words don’t just shape Brotherhood radicals—they influence billions in the Islamic nation.

Rewind to his two years in America, late 1940s, Greeley, Colorado. That trip didn’t just sour him—it detonated his worldview into pure venom. He returned spitting bile, penning The America I Have Seen, a hate-soaked essay branding America a godless cesspool.

Qutb didn’t see the America of churchgoing moms raising five kids, dads grilling burgers while saluting the flag, or teens saving kisses for marriage. No, he saw soulless streets where jazz was a sin and churches were hookup dens for promiscuous dances. Women’s freedom? He called it adultery, plain and simple. To him, a guy and gal twirling at a dance was obscene, like animals rutting in heat. America’s vibe—music, movies, free love—was chaos, a middle finger to God.

Delusional? Hell yeah. He missed the conservative heartland, the faithful who’d sooner die than cheat on their spouses, because he only saw what fit his twisted lens. Who gave him the monopoly on God? Nobody. Yet he acted like he owned the keys to heaven. That misperception wasn’t just a bad vacation—it fueled his jihadist gospel.

America became his Exhibit A for jahiliyyah, the ignorance he slapped on any place not bowing to Sharia. In Fi Zilal Al-Quran, he wrote: The whole world’s steeped in jahiliyyah—not just old pagans, any society dodging God’s law. Non-Muslims? Man-made laws? Pure ignorance. Muslims? No compromise: Wage war till your world’s purified or you’re dead.

His hate started with America’s freedom-as-chaos but exploded to every non-Islamic system. One man’s fear of life—thinking dancing’s a divine crime—wrote the playbook for radicals who’d rather burn the world than dance. And because Fi Zilal Al-Quran echoes in every corner of Islam, his poison’s global.

“Pro-Palestinian activism in Sri Lanka has increasingly provided fertile ground for anti-Semitic sentiment. What often goes unnoticed is that, in practice, advocacy for the Palestinian cause has become closely linked with support for Hamas.” @marcorubio

Upon arriving at Ben Gurion Airport, one of the first sights that struck me was a Muslim man engaged in prayer, kneeling reverently on his prayer mat. This image encapsulates the coexistence of diverse communities within Israel, particularly the place of Muslims in a region often marred by conflict. Despite the political tensions that define the landscape, many Muslims in Israel live their lives with a sense of safety and belonging.

Israel is home to approximately 1.6 million Arabs, the majority of whom are Muslims. They participate actively in various sectors, including education, health, and politics. Cities such as Nazareth and Haifa serve as melting pots, fostering Jewish-Arab cooperation and interaction. Moreover, legal safeguards ensure that the rights of Muslim citizens are upheld, granting them the freedom to practice their faith publicly, as exemplified by the man praying at the airport.

However, it is essential to acknowledge the complexities surrounding identity and security in Israel. While many Muslims find a sense of safety in their daily lives, underlying tensions and incidents can disrupt this peace. Ultimately, the image of the man praying at the airport symbolizes hope—a reminder that, despite historical challenges, harmony and security for Israel's diverse population remain attainable goals

RT @SoooMD: A decade ago during a visit to the WestBank - I saw posters hailing and affirming Martyrdom.
Then I read the Palestinian/Hamas…

The truth must be heard.

[Ihab Hassan @IhabHassane]

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas: “We were in Gaza before 2007, and it was completely calm. We had agreed with the Israelis to remove all the settlements in Gaza and some in the West Bank. Then Hamas carried out the coup in 2007, and later it carried out the October 7th attack.”

There is a problem with the #ProPalestinianMovement. In its current form, it will do nothing for the #Palestinian cause except continue to lend credence to a fanatical #Hamas to rule over #Gaza.

Did the Arabs ever want peace??
Egypt–Israel peace treaty- March 1979-
How the anti-peace campaign led by Islamist organizations in the Arab world and the Middle East has derailed peace.

The Egypt–Israel peace treaty was signed in Washington, D.C., United States, on 26 March 1979, following the 1978 Camp David Accords.
The Egypt–Israel treaty was signed by Anwar Sadat, President of Egypt, and Menachem Begin, Prime Minister of Israel, and witnessed by Jimmy Carter, President of the United States.

This treaty was received with enormous controversy across the Arab world, where it was condemned and considered a stab in the back.
The sense of outrage was particularly strong amongst Palestinians, with the leader of the Palestine Liberation Organization, Yasser Arafat, stating: "Let them sign what they like. False peace will not last".
On the other hand, the treaty led both Egyptian president Anwar Sadat and Israeli prime minister Menachem Begin to share the 1978 Nobel Peace Prize for bringing peace between the two states.
In order to regain legitimacy in the eyes of the other Muslim-majority countries after the peace treaty with Israel, Egypt appealed to Islamic justifications based on the sacred scriptures of Islam to facilitate its efforts to describe its innovative peace policy, and simultaneously to refute the anti-peace campaign led by Islamist organizations in the Arab world and the Middle East.

However, as a result of the treaty, Egypt was suspended from the Arab League in 1979–1989,and Sadat was assassinated on 6 October 1981 by members of the Egyptian Islamic Jihad.
Syrian President Hafez al-Assad severed all relations with Egypt after the signing of the peace deal, and diplomatic relations were not re-established until 2005, when Egypt once again enjoyed warm relations with Syria under the rule of Bashar al-Assad.

The peace between Egypt and Israel has lasted since the treaty went into effect, and Egypt has become an important strategic partner of Israel.
Binyamin Ben-Eliezer, a former Israeli defense minister known for his close ties to Egyptian officials, has stated that "Egypt is not only our closest friend in the region, the co-operation between us goes beyond the strategic."

The Arab world never intended to solve the Palestinian issue. In fact, they have washed their hands off.
The Palestinians were used and abused by the Arab world,
And then particularly by Hamas.
For Hamas, the Palestinians were an ATM. A source for funding for victimhood for hate. Palestinians must take full responsibility for the choices they made.
Every generation has the responsibility of changing the course of history.
It is time for those courageous Palestinians to take over….@afalkhatib @anilaali @SecRubio @anuradisanayake @IsraelinIndia @USEmbSL

If on October 8th, the world came together and called out Hamas, there would be no war. Instead weeks before Israel retaliated, the Pro-Palestinian mobs organized and took to the streets. They desecrated our colleges, divided our people, endangered our safety.
Today they have 50 hostages.
Victims don’t hold hostages.
Hamas is sacrificing its own people.
They thrive on chaos and victimhood.
@SecRubio is absolutely right.
I call on people around the world, particularly #SriLanka - when you gather to protest, call on Hamas to release the hostages! The war must end. We have endured terrorism for decades. We can’t stop terrorists, until we call it out, @anuradisanayake @AJCGlobal @StateSEAS @CLARITyCoaltion
