What are the Arab and Muslim leaders waiting for?!!

The war of genocide that the occupying state is waging against the Gaza Strip has become unstoppable. Homes are being demolished on their inhabitants, and deaths - children, women and the elderly - are in the hundreds. Indeed, the number of martyrs has reached more than 2,400 martyrs, along with thousands of wounded. So where are the Arab and Islamic nations and the leaders of these two nations? Is there a slaughter of innocent citizens?!


Isn't Palestine part of the Arab and Islamic world? Aren't the Palestinian people an integral part of this nation?! So why is this people not supported, even with the minimum of this support, and not just issuing statements of denunciation and denunciation and appealing to the United Nations and the world to intervene on the side of the Israeli occupation to stop these massacres that are being committed in front of the entire world’s eyes and ears?


Isn’t this world ruled by America and the colonial West unable to do anything except declaring solidarity and going out with demonstrations and marches by the masses of these countries? So why do Arab and Muslim leaders rely on this world that only recognizes force, and force alone?


The crime practiced by the occupation does not only require what the Arab and Muslim rulers do, but rather the matter requires much more than that. For example, but not limited to, why have the Arab countries not yet, especially the countries that are establishing normal relations and “peace” with the occupying state must stop these relations and expel the ambassadors of the occupying state from the capitals of their countries, so that the occupation feels that the Arab and Muslim leaders are not mediators between the occupying state and the Palestinian people and the resistance, which according to international laws and norms is a legitimate right to defend the national rights of the Palestinian people, and yet the occupying state and the colonial West consider them organizations. Terrorist, and the occupying state has the right to what is called self-defense, while the reasons for all of this are the continuation of the Israeli occupation and the practices of its forces and herds of settlers.


If international resolutions had been applied to the occupying state, what is happening now would not have happened and our people would have been able to establish their independent state with Holy Jerusalem as its capital. The occupation and its crimes are responsible, as are the countries supporting it, most notably America and the colonial West, which came to support the occupation as if it were the oppressed, when in fact it is the executioner and not the lamb. Meek, as the West likes to describe the occupying state.


The genocidal war committed by the occupying state must push the nation's rulers to unify its ranks and take practical measures on the ground that force this shameless occupation to put an end to its crimes. The nation has the capabilities to make it a force with influence in the world and prevent the occupying state from continuing its massacres against our people.
