Shame on You, O Ummah of Islam, for Gaza’s Hunger
And greater shame that Trump feeds them with a hand of charity and weapons of killing and displacement
After a prolonged hunger, after tying stones to their bellies, after hunger has eaten into their bones and melted the fat, after scenes of living skeletons have become a common sight in Gaza, where every head of a household wanders in search of a morsel to stop the crying of their children, and after Trump arrogantly declared that he would throw some food to the people of Gaza, it has been revealed that his project to feed Gaza is an American company that has turned the hunger of the people of Gaza into an investment, consisting of remnants of criminals from Iraq and Afghanistan and from security companies with a bad history in our lands.
It is a company that distributes food with one hand while raising a rifle with the other, and examines people (security-wise) in a process of humiliation for the people of dignity, the people of Gaza, so that no one receives this food except those whom the Jews have allowed to feed, and perhaps he will be struck by a missile or killed before departure. People have been gathered in queues unworthy of their humanity, intended to relocate them to the south of the Strip, as if it is a new preparation for their displacement, especially since Trump has not ceased talking about owning Gaza and displacing its people, just as the major criminal of the Zionist entity has not stopped talking about displacement while genocide continues and killing is the order of the day.
The worst of what has preceded is that the people of Gaza do not lack food aid, and trucks have piled up by the thousands at the Rafah crossing. If the regime in Egypt had decided to open the crossings and protect the convoys, Gaza’s hunger would have ended in an hour of daylight. But instead of bringing in food, they allowed the Jews to occupy the crossing and control the breath of the people of Gaza in plain sight and with their consent and participation.
It is astonishing that the people of Gaza are hungry while if the Ummah of Islam extended half a hand to their brothers, the cat and the birds in Gaza would eat.
It is astonishing that the people of Gaza are hungry until Trump favors them with a hand of charity and killing, while there are in the Ummah those who, if they wished, could uproot the entity in an hour of daylight or less.
How can the people of Gaza, hungry, be left to the criminals of America and the Jews, when it is not in the religion of their Ummah nor in the honor of its sons that one person goes hungry in it? How then do two million go hungry? Rather, how do these two million Muslims go hungry at a time when the client rulers can provide job opportunities for two million Americans with Muslim money?
The Jews and Americans would not have been able to pour the fire of death and hunger on the people of Gaza had it not been for the betrayal of the rulers and the silence of the Ummah over their crimes, and because they did not see from the Ummah or its soldiers a position that frightens the criminals and cuts the hands of the aggressors!
And did the Americans and Jews enable themselves to control the morsel in the mouths of the children of Gaza except the rulers who besieged Gaza more severely than the Jews, and provided them with means of killing to move from the role of betrayal to outright hostility?
Indeed, it is a shame on the Ummah of Islam that the people of Gaza are hungry, and a greater shame that Trump feeds them with a hand of charity and killing and displacement. It is a shame that can only be washed away by a sincere stance in which the Ummah moves, and moves its armies before it, and topples its rulers and heads towards Bayt al-Maqdis, avenging every drop of blood, purifying every stone and corner of the blessed land from the filth of this vile entity, and uprooting it like a malignant tumor.Only then will the Ummah have washed away its shame, otherwise every cry of hunger, thirst,or pain in the intestines will be a witness before Allah against this Ummah.
