It is SAD..

It is SAD when I look at the news and see every hour a new headline about Israel pushing deeper into Gaza and the number of CIVILAN casualties increases. The number of casualties keeps on rising and the SAD part is not how many killed but as time passes we become more ‘accustomed’ to this news to an extent that we do not react anymore. Some people even lost their feelings about what they see. We may not realize this but to prove it to you just be with others in the TV room and as more news from Gaza come in you will notice at least one person will probably say “just change the channel why are we watching this?” It happens trust me and this is really SAD and in fact dangerous. It is dangerous because tomorrow it will be our turn. Yes we are in for a treat from Israel and its allies; sorry ‘allies’ is not appropriate I would say puppets such as the USA. Do you think if Israel defeats Hamas it will stop there? Of course not because history tells us how Israel operates. They simply cannot stay peaceful for a long time; they live to fight and practice their new weapons. Unfortunately the practice field is Arab lands and the SAD part is that the practice targets are mostly children and women.
I am sick and tired of hearing Israel saying civilians are killed accidentally. This is bullshit moreover; they say “well! Hamas kills civilians too”. Shame on you who uses this justification. Israel got the best intelligence agency in the world and most advanced military systems as they claim so how come they cannot tell a baby from a Hamas militant. On the other hand Hamas is using the most primitive ‘home-made’ rockets that are not guided. I am not saying Hamas should kill civilians but civilians killed by Hamas are not a fraction of what Israel kills every hour. The difference is that Hamas does not target civilians while Israel does. If Israel seriously thinks Palestinian babies and women are a threat to them then at least use proportionate power to attack them.
It is SAD to be so helpless. Gaza is crying and we are chilling out in worldly pleasures. Infants are murdered and terrified, women are killed, families yes whole families are targeted and we are in complete silence and being very passive.
It is SAD when we look at our history and see how much dignity and honor we lost over time. What will we answer when asked about how we helped Gaza? It is SAD because this keeps on happening in Palestine and Lebanon. Israel is taking turns on killing people of different nations and we never learn the lesson. Israel understands only the language of power and fear they do not understand nor believe in peace and negotiations. I think Hezbollah proved this on many occasions when they managed many times to return prisoners from Israel by attacking and kidnapping Israeli soldiers. How many prisoners were freed through negotiations?
Allah is certainly aware of what the wrong doers and oppressors are doing and He alone we ask for victory and seek refuge in.
