Blood in the Gaza strip continues to spill as Israeli forces continue their attack, leaving many people including children and women killed. Thousands fled their homes ahead of threatened attack. Israel is intensifying its brutal bombing in defenceless Gaza with the silent support of the Western world. The merciless attack by the Israeli forces against the Palestinian people in Gaza is a grave offence in the holy month of Ramadan.
Protests are taking place in different parts of the world in solidarity with the Palestinian people. But we did not see any news of protest in powerful and wealthy countries like Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar etc. OIC or Arab League has not yet come forward to take any concrete steps to save the Palestinians from Israeli atrocities. It is a shame for all the Muslims around the world.
Where are the international human rights organisations who champion protection and upholding of human rights regardless of religion, nationality, gender or class? Muslims around the world should be united and appeal to the United Nations to stop further deterioration of the situation and save the oppressed Palestinian people.
