Are Muslim Statess Involved in US-Israeli Crimes against Palestinians?

By: Kayhan Int’l

The US regime, without the least doubt, is a comrade of the illegal Zionist entity in crimes against humanity, but why do certain Muslim countries, including Arab states, aid and abet Israel’s genocide of Palestinians by continuing trade and diplomatic ties despite the death and destruction in Gaza?

This is what the Ummah worldwide is asking at a time when Islamic solidarity and concerted action was the most logical step to wipe out the cobweb called Israel in order to prevent the US-Zionist mass massacre of over 15,000 civilians in Gaza – mostly women and children.

Jordan, which shares the river of the same name as most of the border with Occupied Palestine, could have stopped its supply to Israel of water, gas, and electricity, which bring a paltry 536 million dollars annually. 

It didn’t. This emboldened Israel to intensify its atrocities in the West Bank where over the past fifty days some six thousand Palestinians have been abducted and hundreds of other brutally martyred, while the attention of the world was focused on Gaza.

Egypt, which shares borders with the Gaza strip, continued its supply of crude oil to Israel, while ignoring the plight of the Palestinians deprived of fuel, water, and electricity amidst the intensity of the American-directed brutal bombing.

The Persian Gulf regimes of UAE and Bahrain, which established diplomatic ties with a couple of years ago despite the intense opposition of their populations, refused to sever relations with the illegal Zionist entity by showing total disregard to the carnage in Gaza.

Moreover, the UAE continued with its questionable 10 billion dollar investment projects in usurper Israel, while this amount if used for the persecuted Palestinians would have greatly contributed to their developmental needs, including means of defence.

While Kazakhstan and the Caucasus Republic of Azerbaijan together supplied 60 percent of Israel’s crude oil needs, what has surprised the world’s 1.8 billion Muslims, is Turkiye’s exports of iron, cement, foodstuff, raw materials, and etc., in spite of the Ankara government’s commendable branding of the Zionist entity as “terrorist” and its ringleaders as “war criminals”, and hailing of Hamas as the liberation movement.

If only the Muslim countries had heeded the call of the Islamic Republic to sever all ties with Israel, and declare its army a terrorist outfit, the Zionist entity would have totally collapsed and the precious blood of the Palestinian people save from being so wantonly spilled.

It is still not too late for the Islamic world to close ranks and rush to the aid of Palestine in order to defeat the sinister plots of the West against the Ummah.
