So the justification for this holocaust from Hindu’s point of view(apart from israelis) is that the UN school is bombed because there were weapons hidden there. perhaps they could also explain this to these young children…oh yeh i remember they cant….cos these children are probably already dead!

And what of Sudan and similar conflicts? Thousands more die there and not a tear is shed by those who wail over Gaza, of course doing nothing in both cases. Maybe only one is fashionable?

I cried when I read this and watched the video. The innocence of children is just an amazing thing. Their simple minds must wonder why the world watches, when their schools, play grounds, roads, and every other place they go and play has been bombarded, and big weird looking machines stand their with blood all around. May God help those children who suffer this wherever they are. may God punish those who force this situation upon these children.
All of you Adnan, Tahreem, and Faraz make very valid points.
I would just like to tell this story. When Hadrat Ibrahim was thrown in fire, a sparrow went to some water nearby, filled its beak with water, and brought it to the fire, threw it on the fire. It repeated this process many times. Hadrat Gibraeel (Gabriel) AH was watching and asked the sparrow, what difference is this gonna make to this huge fire as it wont put it off?
The sparrow replied, at least when God questions me, I will be able to say that I did, whatever maximum I was capable of, instead of standing by and watching such oppression. This is not a story, but a true account of what happened that day.
So I think Adnan and Tahreem brothers can think about this story, as we can all learn something from it.
We should do whatever is the maximum we are capable of doing against such oppressions around the world. Not only for Muslims, but whoever is being oppressed, we must help as much as we can, and Allah knows already whatever is the maximum we are capable of too. it may be writing about it, it may be talking about it, it may be reading about it, it may be giving our zakaat for help, it may be giving one days food money for help, or it may be one weeks food money for help, it may be travelling there to look after the injured, or it may be just thinking about it, it is all effort, and effort we must make to help another fellow human, and as I said, God already knows what we are capable of, so no excuses as nothing is hidden between us, and Allah, he knew it all, he knows it all, and he knows whats coming too, but we also have a responsibility of our own decisions.
Just also like to add that this can happen to any one, any where. Those who think that they are safe, and well away from this conflict should also realise that no where on this earth or beyond is out of the control of Allah, or nature. So if we dont show our humanity towards other humans, then may be, others will treat us the same way.
Brother Faraz makes very good points and the words are very true. We better prepare ourselves, as they are coming for any one, who has any religion, unless its a variable religion that can be changed to suit them. Divide and rule is very much in practice, and in plan. So we must unite, we must unite, we must unite. We must become brothers/sisters in faith, and must stand shoulder to shoulder, feet to feet, and care for each other as if it was another part of our own body.

May ALLAH give us Hidayah
and will to destroy evil from this world.. Ameen..but the picture of palestine has placed a strong wound on my heart which i think will never be healed,because when i come to know that innocent women and children are dying and many of them getting disabled due to lack of medical resources,just because of Ummah,s selfishness and ignorance …but we have to understand The evil powers of Today,s world are doing the same thing as we heard before,there goal is to destroy us moraly,physically and make us apart from each other,so we will never be helpful for each other and became”piece of cake” to eat therefor,every one us should be prepared for the tough time to come,and we know that they are also comming to us later or sooner ……..

what is the need of today and tommorow should be planned but we need to do something which we suppose to do later on,and that is “unification”inside Quran and the Sunnah,plus we need to make ourselves “Mujahid” which means to strugle with every aspect and be able to destroy there arms… the only thing can protect us and we must know that is the only thing in which ALLAH protect us when we fight back not to stay away and being fearful to them,but remember whatever they demand you to do and you do it fearfully,one day they will makes you victim forsure so there aggression is not political but they are willing to destroy Islam and its followers …………

We need to mourn,pray and to struggle for our Muslim Brothers and sisters of GAZA financially,moraly and physically if possible,to prove that we are Muslim to ALLAH not the people ………..

And say ISRAEL,USA & INDIA are terrorists no doubt in that ………..

FIGHT BACK UNTIL YOU GET KILLED ………..

This is a battle of nerves as established fact of the matter is the Westren World occupied & thereafter whatever they decided to do they modified according to their own interest e.g. in the very first WW UK made changes all over South Asia & in Far East in 2nd WW US made changes at Japan & Germany.

But as you know in the holy Quran clearly stated by Almighty Allah particularly in the matter of Muslims with hidden hand assistance “THE BEST PLANNER IS ALLAH” therefore lets see where this deadly game would be end.
