Lifting the siege of Gaza will never happen through condemnation or Hajj to the UN

It can only ever happen through mobilization of the armies that surround the Jewish entity, as a bracelet encircles a wrist

Men arrived in ships from far flung places, braving the waves of the sea, to lift the siege of Gaza, driven by a burning humanitarian urge … they rushed with their ships to ease a siege on the elderly, women and children … the rulers of the Muslim countries praised them and raised cries of joy and celebration, proclaiming these men as heroes in a fleet of freedom to lift the siege of Gaza … and Erdogan was foremost in shrieking that the day of lifting of the siege was near, so glad tidings O Gaza!

Then, this morning, of 31 May 2010, the Jews’ state sent battleships to meet the relief ships in mid-sea, killing whoever could be killed and injuring whoever could be injured, and took the survivors to Asdoud port in occupied Palestine … the Arab and non-Arab Muslims’ rulers mobbed the Security Council, the Arab League and the United Nations, denouncing the Jews’ state and its heinous crime, denouncing the Jews’ violation of international law and international waters, cursing them with harsh words and fiery speech! And some of them added that what happened would disrupt the “peace process”!!

O rulers, from those who are most in screaming to those who are most in crying!

O people, O “listeners of the cries,” O all those with a heart, hearing and sight!

Indeed, the young and old, men and women, all those with hearing and sight, and even those without … everyone … understands, knows and is certain that the lifting of the siege of Gaza and the demise of the Jews’ state can only be achieved by mobilizing the armies that surround the Jewish state, as a bracelet encircles a wrist, any time, any hour, day or night, in a mobilization that will fall upon the Jews from where they do not expect, lift the siege and return the land back to its people. And thus Allah سبحانه وتعالى will ease the hearts of the believers. Allah سبحانه وتعالى said,

قَاتِلُوهُمْ يُعَذِّبْهُمُ اللَّهُ بِأَيْدِيكُمْ وَيُخْزِهِمْ وَيَنْصُرْكُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَيَشْفِ صُدُورَ قَوْمٍ مُؤْمِنِينَ

“Fight against them so that Allah will punish them by your hands, and disgrace them and give you victory over them, and Allah will ease the hearts of a believing people” [Surah At-Tawba 9:14]

This is the only way to remove the Jews’ state and lift the siege from Gaza, the West Bank and other neighbouring areas …

This is the only way, O Arab rulers, who claim that you are related to the people of the language of the Qur’an, and O Turkey’s rulers who claim to be from the Uthmaani dynasty, O you possessors of the missiles that you boast can blow “Israel” off the map, so where are you now, O Pakistan and Iran’s rulers?! Why do not we hear so much fanfare but no action?! Or is this all just deception and mockery of the people, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى fight you for what you are doing.

This is the only way, O people, so why search for solutions here and there, crooked and twisted, instead of the true, straight solution?!

O rulers of the Muslim countries who imprison the armies in their barracks, we are witness, as the righteous with us are witness, to your allegations in which you curse the Jews’ state, to your claims that you are doing your best to lift the siege of Gaza, to your tears for those killed and wounded in the fleet of freedom and to your mourning for one or two or three days .. . we are witness, as the righteous with us are witness, that you are liars.

O people: indeed Hizb ut-Tahrir strengthens your determination and firms up your resolve, so do you now not know that there is no solution except to mobilize armies, gathering the capable soldiers and fight the Jews? The armies are of your sons, and they must mobilize to fight, without fearing a ruler or an oppressor, rather they must stand in their faces and uproot them, for Allah alone has the greatest right to be feared and He alone is the Mighty, the Wise.

So do you now not know that there must be sincere, truthful, leader, the Rightly guided Khaleefah, who will strive against your enemy with you, reliving the examples of Umar Al-Faruq رضي الله عنه the conqueror of al-Quds, of Salah al-Din, its liberator, and of Sultan Abdul Hamid, its protector?

So must you now not seize the hands of the oppressor, defunct rulers so as to mobilize the armies for Jihad? And do you not know that if you do not do so, you will be punished along with the oppressors? Allah سبحانه وتعالى said,

وَاتَّقُوا فِتْنَةً لَا تُصِيبَنَّ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا مِنْكُمْ خَاصَّةً وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ

“And fear the Fitnah (affliction and trial) which affects not only  those of you who do wrong, and know that Allah is severe in punishment” [Surah Al-Anfal 8:25]

And Tirmidhi narrated from Abu Bakr as-Sadiq رضي الله عنه that RasulAllah صلى الله عليه و سلم said,

إِنَّ النَّاسَ إِذَا رَأَوْا الظَّالِمَ فَلَمْ يَأْخُذُوا عَلَى يَدَيْهِ أَوْشَكَ أَنْ يَعُمَّهُمْ اللَّهُ بِعِقَابٍ مِنْهُ

“If people saw the oppressor, and did not seize his hands, Allah will punish them along with him.”
