What did Bertrand Russell say ?
That quite simply, there are just wars: “I consider any resistance to an invader to be just.”
The Zionist colonized Arab Palestinian land before 1948 and made an agreement with the unjust Majesty’s kingdom at the expense of the original inhabitants of Palestine, the promise of Lord Balfour.
A minority Zionist wealthy and armed, supported by terrorist groups, occupied a land that does not belong to them. We must first focus on this problem and not on the heroic operation of Hamas who responded as they should to the Zionist violations of Muslim holy sites. Those Pro-Zionist who wrongly believed that the Zionist occupying people wanted peace are gravely mistaken! What peace can an oppressive invader offer its victims??
For goodness’ sake, don’t give us the Biblical or Torah reading claiming that Palestine is a Jewish land, because we will respond loudly and clearly:
The descendants of the children of Israel, Jesus Christ, and Judas betrayed Christ’s trust. As a result, Christ was pursued, and Allah raised him to the seventh heaven and sent the Seal of Prophethood, Muhammad, peace be upon him. It was Caliph Omar who peacefully conquered Palestine, and therefore Palestine should remain within the Muslim sphere. We are perfectly capable of ensuring the protection of holy sites for the three monotheistic religions, as we did during the Ottoman Empire.
Demonizing the Hamas, you have been doing this with Hezbollah for decades, but your demonization has only strengthened Hezbollah, and it is still here because it is a legitimate Lebanese political party with voters. The same goes for Hamas. You must acknowledge this self-evident truth: the problem must be addressed at its root, not by examining one angle in a biased way and leaving aside the core of the issue or beating around the bush.
A minimum of common sense and objectivity is required from you, or is that too much to ask in the era of fake news and morally bankrupt elites?”
