Aggressive escalation in Jerusalem

What the occupying state and the herds of settlers did yesterday in occupied Jerusalem, including the march of flags and the storming of the Old City of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount, and the dances at Damascus Gate, in the presence and participation of the Minister of Transportation, Miri Regev, as well as the participation of ministers and members of Knesset, headed by Ben Gvir, the Minister of National Security, in the march of the flags. It is not only provocative acts of Palestinian citizens, many of whom have been assaulted, dozens arrested, and many of them deported from the Old City, but also a clear aggressive escalation targeting Jerusalemites in the first place and the Arab and Islamic nations, along with the countries of the world that recognize East Jerusalem as an occupied city that the occupying state has no right to change Its features or attempts to undermine its people.


This aggression that took place and is still taking place in front of the whole world means, first of all, that the occupying state does not care about this world and does not take any account of it, as long as the United States of America and with it the Western colonial countries support the occupying state and prevent any punitive measures against it.


These countries that support the occupying state in its escalating aggression, which poses a threat to the region and the world, claim democracy and human rights when they are far from that, especially when it comes to the inalienable national rights of our people to return, self-determination, and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital.


In the face of this aggression that threatens to explode the region and threatens global peace and security, our people have no choice but to stand firm and thwart the attempts of the occupation to undermine the Holy City, and the attempts to seize and Judaize it through the falsification of the history of the city and the historical facts that confirm that Jerusalem is a Palestinian, Arab and Islamic city, and that the occupying state no matter what it does It fabricated practices and procedures, and no matter what crimes it committed, all of this does not change the nature of the city, its history, or the fact that it is Palestinian, and that the Palestinians are a clear and historical extension of the Canaanites who owned this country and who established civilization in it, and that Israel is an occupying state whose occupation will end sooner or later. .


It is true that the current stage is unacceptable to the Palestinians and the Arabs, and that the occupying state believes that the force it possesses, with the support of its Western allies, can achieve its goals in establishing its state from the Nile to the Euphrates. Britain, on whose colonies the sun never set, but in the end it was forced to end its colonization and return to its natural size. Victory in the end belongs to the people, and as long as our people continue their national and human struggle, victory will be their ally in the end, and the brutal occupation will come to an end.


Jerusalem will remain Palestinian, Arab and Islamic, and just as the invaders were defeated in the previous stages of history, the defeat of the occupation of the Holy City and all occupied Palestinian lands is a matter of time, and that the Jerusalemites will continue to protect Al-Aqsa, the Church of the Resurrection, and all Islamic and Christian sanctities in Jerusalem and the rest of Palestine. The will will defeat force. And as long as our people and the Jerusalemites are at the forefront, they have the will and the challenge, victory will be his ally, long or short.
