“Through its brutal attacks against residential areas, the Beirut international airport, and other buildings in Lebanon, the Zionist regime has raised concerns not only in Palestine and Lebanon but also in the world,” The World Forum for Proximity of Islamic Schools of Thought said in a statement it issued on Friday.
Israel’s recent onslaught against the Lebanese territories, which began after the resistance movement, Hezbollah, captured two Israeli soldiers, claimed the lives of scores of civilians, according to Mehr News Agency.
The statement also slammed Israel’s disrespect for humanitarian and international commitments.
“The World Forum for Proximity of Islamic Schools of Thought is extremely concerned over the unstable situation created in the Middle East following Israel’s attacks against Lebanon and Gaza and calls for efforts by international organizations and Islamic countries to counter these attacks.”
“The support given to the Zionist regime by the U.S. and other western countries along with the deadly silence of the Arab world has encouraged Israel to carry out its vicious military attacks against the Gaza Strip and Lebanon.
“Today, our Lebanese and Palestinians brothers are under severe Israeli attacks. If Islamic countries fail to show a firm reaction to Israel’s aggressions, the regime will continue with its brutal attacks in the region.
“Therefore, the world of Islam should unite in supporting the Palestinian and Lebanese people."
Also Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), called on the international community to intervene and stop the ongoing Israeli terrorism in the Lebanese territories.
CAIR made its call following an Israeli attack on a convoy of Lebanese civilians trying to flee threats to destroy their village, killing 12, including women and children.
"The international community must respond to this latest massacre of Lebanese men, women and children by taking concrete action to protect that nation's civilian population and infrastructure from attack,” the Washington-based Muslim civil liberties group said in its statement.
"Israel has stated clearly, and demonstrated through violent actions, that it is attacking civilian targets in Lebanon in order to achieve a political goal. This is the very definition of state terrorism.”
"Our nation cannot maintain credibility in condemning acts of terror carried out by individuals and groups, while offering diplomatic cover and material support to a state that is engaged in a brutal campaign against an entire civilian population."
Re: Islamic world urged to unite to save Lebanese and Palestinians
The best way for other muslim countries to the help the Lebanese is to kick Hezbollah out of Lebanon. What is the "resistance movement" supposed to have been "resisting"? There were no Israelis in Lebanon.

That line of reasoning is why war and suffering never seem to end in the middle east. Either you want peace or you want war, and those that WANT war use that logic.
Re: Islamic world urged to unite to save Lebanese and Palestinians
I do not like war (although I think I have played one too many strategy games).....I just like to play it......But in reality, I love peace...Just give back what des not belong to you, and there! everybody is happy!
Where did Israelis reside before they moved into Palestine (now named Israel)

The reasoning goes along the line of "either you want to be bullied or you dont." You have no idea of the atrocities Israel has committed again Palestine and its neighbors, so please educate yourself, instead of comforting yourself with FOX news.
Perhaps Hezbollah may lose, but at least they fought the IDF with courage. I'd die to fight for what I believe in.
Re: Islamic world urged to unite to save Lebanese and Palestinians
It is so easy for someone sitting at a computer to say how they would be "willing to fight". I educate myself just fine by the way, and I'm not sure where FOX news comes into this discussion.
Re: Islamic world urged to unite to save Lebanese and Palestinians
Israel can kill palestinians, abduct people as prisoners, no one does ne thing and when people do, they should be get rid of? May God curse the enemies of hizbullah and supporters of Israel.
Re: Islamic world urged to unite to save Lebanese and Palestinians
yeh, well if thats the case, well have to see if and when israel decided to take on a ground assult. then if the numbers which hezballah claims to have grows overnight, then i think its more love then hate. If it was not for hezballah lebanon would be another palestine.

Re: Islamic world urged to unite to save Lebanese and Palestinians
I'm don't see any possibility of Israel being under Islamic rule, unless they suddenly give up their own religion and turn to Islam by choice, which is obviously unlikely. There will be no military takeover of Israel, that is sad fantasy that only leads to more violence.

It's going to be reality --- not now, but on day you will witness it
Re: Islamic world urged to unite to save Lebanese and Palestinians
Perhaps you should be more worried about creating an Islamic society that lives in peace and recognizes Israel's right to exist. As unlikely as it seems now, there could come a time when Arab and Israeli children play soccer together in the streets. Wouldn't that be more worthwhile than fantasizing about the destruction of a people?
