Most Muslims have become victims of the
global media controlled by Zionist extremists. The global media, which
is under the influence of the Zionist lobbies continually downplay or
ignore the suffering of the Palestinians. The conditions of the
Palestinians are made to become worse by occupation forces that deny
them food and medicine, raze their homes with the purpose of Judaising
Palestine and destroying Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem.
It should be borne in mind that
Palestinians remain deprived of their basic human rights and living
under a brutal occupation, as such they have a legitimate right to fight
for freedom. Anyone can see Palestinian and Lebanese resistant attacks
are on legitimate Israeli military targets but all Israeli attacks and
blockades are indiscriminate and deliberately target women and children,
innocent civilians and civilian infrastructures.
It is misleading to believe that BBC is
an independent and impartial public broadcaster. The BBC, including CNN
and many other news organisations are instruments of Zionist propaganda.
They defend Israel’s terrorism and illegal occupation of Palestinian
land and are actively complicit in Zionist war crimes throughout the
Middle East.
On 9 June 2006, a barrage of Israeli
artillery shells rained down on a crowded Gaza beach killed a family of
seven Palestinians, among them three children. The beach was packed
with picnicking families enjoying on Friday, the explosions landed among
them, scattering body parts along the sand dunes. The only survivor in
the family was their young sister who was swimming at the moment.
After the Israeli army murdered the
Ghalia family and wounded many more Palestinians on that day, the BBC
was the first Western media to defend Israel and volunteered to cover-up
their crimes. The BBC while quoting Israeli Defence Minister Amir
Peretz said Israel was not responsible for the blast that killed an
entire Palestinian family enjoying a picnic on Gaza beach. Much of the
Western media deliberately ignored the evidence on how the killings
actually happened.
The Jewish controlled Western media
fabricated lies and played a warmongering role concerning a non-existent
Iraqi weapons program. The end result of that was up to a million
Iraqis, mostly women and children killed by US and British armies, and
the total destruction of the Iraqi society.
There are no less than 10,000
Palestinian prisoners languishing in Israeli jails. They include 132
Palestinian women, 388 children and a dozen of infants, separated from
their mothers and kept under brutal conditions. They are subjected to
torture, sexual abuse and denied a fair trial and human rights. Many of
the prisoners were kidnapped from their homes at midnight and held
without charge for years. The Western news media are not bothered to
report on the conditions of any of these adducted Palestinians by
Israel.
Israel never takes the precautions
required of it in international law, including the Geneva Conventions to
protect the civilian population and infrastructure. The Article 54 of
the 1949 Geneva Conventions state clearly that “starvation of civilians
as a method of warfare is prohibited.” Also the Article 51 states that
it is “prohibited to attack, destroy, remove or render useless objects
indispensable to the survival of the civilian population.” However, the
above mentioned violations of the internationally accepted norms by
Israel go unreported in the Western propagandist news media.
The US led NATO forces attacked villages
in Panjwai district west of Kandahar, Afghanistan as locals marked the
end of Ramadan on 24 October 2006. More than 90 villages, among them
women and children got killed when their homes, schools and other
buildings were blown up. The Western news media reported that NATO
forces killed 48 Taliban fighters who had taken civilians hostage and
were using them as human shields. Later NATO forces admitted that they
had in fact bombarded the villages with mortars, artillery and air
strikes in a night raid. The truth of the massacre emerged only after
local journalists and officials launched an investigation into the
attack.
Like in Afghanistan, many would still
remember US and Western media claims during the Vietnam War in the
1960’s and 70’s. In January 1968, some 80,000 Vietcong guerillas
launched the Tet Offensive against Saigon, then South Vietnam’s capital,
now renamed as Ho Chi Minh City. Even after the US claimed that they
have killed 20,000 Vietcong soldiers, the offensive continued. It was
the late Robert F. Kennedy who boasted saying that for every Vietcong
soldier killed four were wounded. If 20,000 Vietcong fighters had been
killed, the other 60,000 must have been wounded. Nevertheless, the war
continued unabated and Robert Kennedy was unable to explain who was
doing the fighting. At the same time General Westmoreland continued to
demand more troops saying “the enemy was on the rope and another 200,000
Guys would finish him off.” Apart from the finances, this would require
a call up of the reserves, and the decision was delayed. When the
decision was ultimately reached to deny the request, it represented a
realisation that the war could not be won by military means.
Though denied by the Western
propagandist media a similar situation has arisen about the US war in
Afghanistan. The Operation Moshtarak launched in February 2010 aimed to
wipe out Taliban and al-Qaeda fighters from Helmand by December 2010.
After which the US predicted that there would soon be peace and security
in most areas of Afghanistan. The Operation was supposed to be the
battle that would eliminate the last pockets of resistance by determined
fighters resisting the US occupation of Afghanistan. However, its
outcome has been less than satisfactory for the Americans and Taliban
continues to grow more in strength. The US bombardments of the area were
intense and villages were completely wiped out and scores of Afghan
Muslims killed, but this was what the Western media calls “collateral
damage.”
Millions of Muslims around the world
have been brainwashed by the Western propagandist media to believe that
Zionists have the right to establish a Jewish state in the land of
Palestine. The US and Israeli military machine threaten to bankrupt or
destroy any Muslim state which does not comply its demands. Controlling
the people’s belief systems around the world would only ensure the
survival of Israel on the land of the Palestinians. The US and Israel
would even look into the contents of the text books taught in the
schools of Germany and Japan to ensure that their version of the history
is taught concerning the World Wars I and II. Similarly, they peep into
the books studied by Muslim children around the world and pressure the
Muslim governments to change the school curriculum so as not to teach
any elements of the truth about Palestine. One such example could be
seen in the Maldives when in the late 1980’s, the Ministry of Education
introduced a chapter on Palestine into the Religious Studies text book
for grade seven students. The chapter clearly explained the British
intrigue that created the Jewish state and the atrocities committed by
Zionists. The education authorities even printed a supplementary map book about the history of Palestine for the students, showing how the first
Arab settlers reached there before the advent of Abraham (AS) and the
subsequent rise and fall of the empires that conquered Palestine.
However, within a few years time the whole of the information about
Palestine got disappeared from the student text books in Maldives.
