The Compass of Palestine
regarded as the renewing of an example to all Lebanese as well as Arabs and Moslems. They must learn that the Zionist enemy that spreads killing fields and devastation will not distinguish between sects and doctrines or even between the various political affiliations. All are marked as a target.
Beit Hanoun massacre is the recurring lesson that must not be forgotten. It is also the real compass that directs our fury, the mouth of our rifle, the plans for our progress and steadfastness, and our constant and future confrontation.
Most of the occurrences in our Arab world, such as divisions and interlaces, are nothing but details and margins of the main subject represented by the occupation of Palestine. It is the greatest catastrophe and harshest disaster, the chapters of which have been continuing for more than half a century. All other issues are nothing but details which regardless of how basic or crucial they seem at times, yet they do not reach the level or must not reach the level of the main concern. And should this main worry be eliminated from the path, the illusions of division and the reasons of diversity and sedition will fall.
Our aim in these words is neither to suggest the occurrence of complete peace and harmony by the simple ridding of the Israeli occupation, nor hang all our arguments, differences and disputes on the occupation hook. But our aim is that the occupation has formed and still forms the main reason that deepens the gap between us, and it nourishes the occurring divisions between the sects, doctrines and religious authorities.
All are seeking distraction above the mouth of the dragon, regimes, rulers and governments. The people on the other hand are crying out for justice, rights, and resistance in order to reach liberation.
Our reoccurring tragedy must nourish our fury that must roar with efficient support to the children of Palestine and their resistance by all means and reasons of force.
The funny and sad issue is that the Arabs who have been defeated in most of their wars against the Israeli enemy while falsely declaring their victory are (most of them) occupied nowadays in declaring their defeat in the only war in which they defeated the Israeli enemy; and this time they are also falsely declaring their defeat.
The issue does not require further scrutiny to understand the reasons. This means losing the real compass of the conflict and its necessities of steadfastness, structure and equipment. The Arabs and Moslems have been inflicted with disasters and losses ever since they lost this compass.
This is the compass of Palestine, the compass of battling with the real enemy of the nations and their regimes and each aspect of the aspects of strength in our Arab and Moslem world. Didn’t the days reveal to us that the destruction of Iraq was a Zionist conspiracy? Did we need such a new disaster in order to recognize the reality of our enemy? Are we still living a stage of testing the intentions of this enemy as well as assuming its goodness and believing its allegations of peace? This enemy has been dedicated in drowning us under its crimes and the series of its massacres since 1948 until today.
Why should some Lebanese forget that part of their land is still under occupation, that their water is being subjected to theft, and that their airspace and sea are being violated by enemy flights and warships? Four million cluster bombs have been dropped during the past July aggression – which matched the count of the Lebanese population or more – pointing to the barbarism and criminality of the enemy. The destructive enemy attacks on the infrastructure and natural fortunes should be sufficient to awaken the unmindful people or those careless negligent.
This is Palestine. It is the compass and will remain to be so. Because it indicates to the blood that was shed from the river to the sea and because it is the promise of the vowed victory regardless of how long it may take. It is the true covenant for those who believe in their God and the resistance. God will keep His promise to those who believe and work righteousness for and with the resistance.
Palestine is the promise of the afterworld. And the afterworld promise will soon come true. Morning is their time appointed…
