Editor’s remarks: In this message, Mohammed Hamood from Yemen states some historical facts about fraternal relations between Jews and Muslims in Arab countries over the course of centuries. He also states that the oppression of Palestinians in occupied Palestine by Israel has a long history. Hamas, contrary to the false and misleading propaganda, is a freedom movement struggling to break the illegal siege of Gaza by Israel and achieve freedom for an occupied people by a colonial power. His words are true and put in a straightforward way for all. His message needs to be publicised at a time when Israel is once again destroying Gaza and indiscriminately killing defenceless Palestinians in thousands.
Please read my entire message. I might be among the dead after that. This is a story you should know. Regardless of my religion, identity, or country, please read it with the principle of your humanity in mind. I will reveal everything inside of me, and it is possible that my message will be deleted, and perhaps my account deleted as well.
Over the years, Israel, the United States, Great Britain and many other countries have embarked on a massive propaganda drive to portray Hamas as a terrorist organization, which is a complete fabrication. Hamas is a group of Palestinian residents whose fathers and mothers were killed in previous wars with Israel. Israel occupied their land, kicked them out of their homes, and made people move away.
For the past 75 years, Israel has been committing war crimes and genocide, killing men, the elderly, women, children, and everyone living in Palestine for the duration of its war against them. The citizens of Palestine did not have weapons. Rather, they were armed with stones that children, men, and women were hurling at Israeli armoured vehicles, tanks, and soldiers. Israel killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Palestinians. Hamas didn’t exist at that time. Subsequently, it encircled the remainder within a circumference of not exceeding 500 square kilometres.
Hamas was born from this hell. Hamas is the organization of the same children who were throwing stones at Israeli occupation tanks. Their fathers and grandfathers were killed, and they were displaced from their homeland. They grew up, made their own weapons, and pledged to restore their state, which Israel had snatched from their fathers and grandfathers.
Hamas is not a terrorist organization. Hamas is a resistance movement like any resistance movement in the world. It is a movement of liberation and struggle for freedom. They didn’t just attack Israel mistakenly. They’re just looking forward to reclaiming their ancestral lands, fields, and dwellings, which they’ve been stripped of for the past 75 years. Furthermore, they only demanded the release of Palestinian civilian prisoners, who number more than 6,000 and have been languishing in Israeli prisons for 50 years.
This war is not a religious one, as some media outlets claim. Muslims have never been anti-Semitic; they are not now. Jews have lived with us and in our country for hundreds of years. We have embraced the Jews in the past and have sheltered them after they fled to us. We gave them lands to cultivate and houses to live in. There was no difference between a Muslim and a Jew, and Jewish rabbis attest to this. It has now become clear that this war is a Zionist political war between two parties, one of which wants to liberate its homeland from colonialism with individuals whose number does not exceed hundreds.
The objective of the opposing side is to eradicate all living organisms within their territory, utilizing tens of thousands of soldiers and an extensive army equipped with a diverse range of weapons, including numerous aircraft, tanks, and armoured vehicles. It is led by leaders devoid of all moral and human values. America and all European countries provide them with unlimited money and weapons.
This war is not equal in any way. Where are the human rights that they clamour and proclaim in their name, in light of the current events? The utmost injustice that the world has witnessed, on the one hand, and the genocide that is currently occurring to innocent individuals, on the other hand. What a barbaric conflict that targets hospitals and schools that take care of people who have been displaced and sick, and kills hundreds of them. It is a barbaric war in which innocent people are crushed and burned with internationally prohibited white phosphorus. Where is justice when there are 4,000 children and 3,000 women who have been killed in Gaza? Where is mercy when food, medicine, electricity, and water are cut off and then the water tanks that citizens maintain are bombed? They also bomb solar panels. They also bombed ambulances transporting the wounded. Furthermore, they target doctors in order to ensure that the wounded die. Is there any humanity when we witness the systematic destruction of innocent displaced individuals through bombing and extermination without any remorse?
Do we live on this planet called Earth? Is it possible to believe this is happening in the 21st century? How long will the international community remain silent regarding the current events? Don’t you feel human? Doesn’t the human conscience move within you? Don’t you doubt that God will hold accountable everyone who failed them and accepted this injustice? History will never forget that. We are all responsible for that. We will all pay the price for our silence but with the time difference.
Don’t let this message stand still. Spread it to all the people of the world and in all languages. Let the whole world know what they are hiding from you. Thank you all!
