The Struggle Continues
================
by Tavis Adibudeen
After another week of continued violence in Palestine and continued
atrocities committed by Israeli soldiers, one must begin to wonder why the
rest of the world is condemning Israel while the United States continues to
condemn Palestine. After all, this is the nation that fought for its
freedom and came to its current position only after a revolutionary war
against Great Britain (which obviously isn't so great anymore). So, how
then can a country patterned and molded after revolution be so
unappreciative of the Palestinian struggle?
Let us examine the situation more closely, for that is the only way to
truly understand the United States' position on this matter. We must first
remember that America itself is an occupied land. It has been since the
first settlers arrived. Their entire objective of "Manifest Destiny", the
idea that God have given them this right...no, not right, "command" to
conquer the Americas from "sea to shining sea." How familiar does this
doctrine sound? If it sounds like a page from the Bible, that is because
it is.
The native people from America unfortunately were not as successful as
Hizbollah who managed to finally rid their land of Israeli occupation or
Afghanistan who defeated the Soviet superpower when it was seemingly at its
strongest. Instead the best that native people here in America can hope
and pray for is to survive another year, to be allowed to hold on to
whatever small piece of their culture they have remaining.
Thus, the occupation of America was successful. The occupants succeeded in
conquering from "sea to shining sea" and did not stop there. Instead they
continued to subdue the remainder of the world until they had conquered
most of it. They essentially became the mirror image of their oppressors
in Britain.
Again, this may sound quite familiar to even the casual reader of
newspapers. How ironic that centuries later the cycle repeats itself. A
group of Jews in Germany were undoubtedly oppressed. To what extent is no
longer clear, but there definitely was some degree of oppression. They
suffered adversity and managed to survive. Miraculously (or was it?) they
received the assistance from two preceding occupiers (Britain and the
United States) to find their own land to occupy.
In the beginning they were to share the land with Palestine and Jerusalem
was to remain an autonomous religious city open to the world. These
Zionists, however, had their own "Manifest Destiny" and their doctrine
included lands that they still do not occupy to this day. The former
occupation of Lebanon is the obvious example. Eventually, their greed
overcame them, their gluttony finished them, and their isolation will
eventually lead them to ruin just as past nations have fallen.
Before any of this occurs, however, we should observe closely what
transpires with Israel and how the United States plays their game of
supposedly desiring peace but desiring it only if their pet, Israel, is
victorious. This has become very apparent over the past week. Certainly
the bombing of the USS Cole was tragic, and naturally it has already been
blamed on "Islamic Extremists" now even linking them to our infamous
Muslim Legend, Osama bin Laden.
How coincidental it was that the former US Army Sergeant, Ali Mohammed,
would plead guilty to aiding Mr. bin Laden in this elaborate "world
terrorist ring" right when Israel was busy committing their own acts of
terrorism. How convenient it is for the United States to make terrorism
the main focus of their attention while the real terrorism is being
committed by the Zionists whom they support so unconditionally. It would
seem that the United States is attempting to "wag the dog", but the
question must now be asked. Can they really fool 1.2 billion Muslims? No,
not nowadays.
The struggle will continue, and the believers WILL be victorious.
"And fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress
limits; for Allah loves not transgressors. And slay them wherever you
catch them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out; for
persecution is worse than slaughter; but fight them not at the Sacred
Mosque, unless they (first) fight you there; but if they fight you, slay
them. Such is the reward of those who reject faith. But if they cease,
Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful. And fight them on until there is no
more persecution and the religion becomes Allah's, but if they cease, let
there be no hostility except to those who practise oppression." al-Qur'an
2:190-193
