Explaining Israel's Mysterious Imperial
Agenda
26-03-2008
When Harry Belafonte declared that US President George W. Bush was “the world’s
greatest terrorist”, it was clear that while he had not studied the subject
sufficiently, since that notorious distinction belongs to Israel and not to
Bush, he certainly showed greater understanding of the subject and more courage
than most politicians and leaders today.
But Israel has another unique distinction that continuously escapes the
attention of scribes, scholars and politicians. It is the only state in the
world that has continuously waged unjust war with disdain for ‘gentile’ opinion,
and even escalate its warfare while rendering the rest of the world powerless to
do anything tangible to prevent it.
The rest of the world, that is, except Islam!
Israel’s deliberately barbarous and disproportionate military response to the
Sunni Islamic resistance’s capture of one enemy soldier in the Gaza Strip, and
the further capture of two more enemy soldiers by the Shia Islamic resistance in
Southern Lebanon, not only constitutes yet another Israeli war crime but also
sets up Israel once again for eventual retributive punishment that would be
commensurate with all those war crimes. Neither Prophets David nor Solomon
(peace be upon them both) ever waged war the Israeli way, with a barbarian
ethical code of warfare which permits the indiscriminate bombing-destruction of
entire civilian populations, men women and children, in their homes, villages,
temples, and bomb-shelters (60 just killed in a village bomb-shelter in Qana,
including 37 children) as well as the destruction of civilian airports, roads,
bridges, electricity power plants, water works, etc., and the displacement of
almost half the population of a country as refugees fleeing for their lives.
One can only wonder why the Israelite Jews who lived in peace with Muslims in
the Muslim world for more than a thousand years prior to the birth of the
Euro-Jewish State of Israel, have not as yet asked themselves whether Israel’s
Euro-Jewish rulers are really Jews, or whether they are Euro-barbarians who
disguise themselves as Jews.
BINT JABEEL, BIN JABEEL, AND ISRAEL’S FINAL RETRIBUTION
The world must now know that Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) has prophesied
Israel’s final and just retribution at the hands of a Muslim army. Israel has
already had a taste of that coming retribution. In an essay published in the
‘Daily Express’, columnist Raffique Shah, himself trained in military strategy,
described what happened when Israel attempted a ground assault on the Southern
Lebanese village of Bint Jabeel:
“Having pounded the enemy for days, they thought they would have encountered
only rubble. Instead, they ran into ambush after ambush, mounted by men seasoned
in desert warfare. Within hours, 11 Israeli soldiers lay dead with scores more
seriously wounded. The wounded were crying in agony as the Hezbullah fighters
poured more fire on them. It took the Israelis several hours to extricate their
troops, and that only by using their finest tanks as ambulances. Reporters on
the Israeli side of the border wrote of weeping commanders and soldiers, dazed
by a taste of real battle, wandering back to safety like a bedraggled, defeated
army.”
Bint Jabeel, in Arabic, means Jabeel’s ‘daughter’, while Bin or Ibn Jabeel would
be his ‘son’. Israel must now pause and ponder. If Bint Jabeel could fight like
that, how will Bin Jabeel fight?
Israel’s final retribution, as prophesied by Prophet Muhammad in words that are
engraved in the hearts of millions of Muslims around the world, would come to
pass only after Jesus returns. The Prophet declared: “You would fight the Jews
and you would (succeed in) killing them (to such an extent that even) a stone
would speak (and would say): Oh Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me so come
and kill him!” (Bukhari, Muslim)
That prophecy suffices today to distinguish the true Muslim from the pseudo
Muslim. The true Muslim is unafraid to declare that the Jihad (just war) to
liberate the Holy Land from Israeli oppression has already begun. Pseudo
Muslims, from captain to cook, hurry to distance themselves from any armed
struggle while insisting that Jihad is an exclusive ‘inner’ moral and spiritual
struggle and has nothing at all to do with that just armed struggle.
The enemies of Islam can bite their finger-tips in frustration and with rage as
they criticize and condemn those powerful words of the Prophet as ‘incitement to
terrorism’. Misguided Muslim apologists can exhaust the ink in their pens as
they furiously deny that Prophet Muhammad ever made such a prophecy. They can
even try to sugarcoat those words with a ‘progressive interpretation’. Israel
can go on to attack Iran and to madly destroy even more of the Arab/Muslim world
after destroying Gaza and Lebanon. Yet none can avert the eventual fulfillment
of the Prophet’s prophecy that Islam’s armed resistance to Israeli oppression
would eventually be successful. On that day of success when even the stones
would speak, Islam would have triumphed over all her rivals!
But while the final success of that armed resistance and retributive punishment
on Israel would have to wait until Jesus (peace be upon him) returns, it is
quite likely that Israel’s present political and military leadership would take
the world to the brink of utter destruction if and when Israel launches a
preemptive nuclear attack on Iran. (See essay entitled “Will Israel attack
Iran?”) Such a nuclear attack on Iran would be designed to provoke that country,
in the unlikely event that Iran already possesses nuclear weapons, to retaliate
in kind. If Iran does not do so, Israel would still press on to destroy all
Iranian nuclear power plants and other related infrastructures that could
possibly be used for the development of an indigenous Iranian nuclear deterrent.
If Iran does possess nuclear weapons purchased from others, and chooses to
retaliate with them, such a preemptive Israeli nuclear attack could eventually
result in the death of hundreds of thousands of both Israelis and Iranians, and
that would land us all in the pit of blazing fire! If it turns out that Iran did
not possess nuclear weapons, then Iranian gentile deaths do not really count as
deaths with God’s so-called ‘chosen people’.
An Israeli nuclear attack on Iran could ignite such disastrous economic and
monetary crises around the world that the present Pax Americana world-order
could collapse and be replaced by another world-order dominated by Israel.
I believe that Israel no longer has any use for a United Nations Organization
that has already been successfully used to protect the Jewish State through
infancy and childhood to her present superpower status. The UN would be a
cumbersome hindrance for the universal messianic dictatorship that would be Pax
Judaica. Perhaps the deliberate and contemptuous murder of four UN Observer
personnel that resulted from the recent Israeli bombing of the UN Observer Post
in Southern Lebanon was meant to deliver to the world a message that the UN’s
days are now numbered.
Islam the religion is the only significant force in the world today offering
armed resistance to oppression in and around what should properly be known as
the Holy Land. Islam now occupies center-stage in international affairs and the
central importance of the religion can only increase as Israel relentlessly
pursues the realization of her messianic destiny with an abandon that defies
both morality and common sense. Islam alone is both accurately explaining the
strange world today, and is correctly anticipating tomorrow’s even more
horrendously evil world.
And yet, while others have privileged access to the media to articulate their
viewpoint in a country which declares, “here every creed and race finds an equal
place”, there is no column on Islam in any daily newspaper in Trinidad and
Tobago. This Muslim scribe, who is a senior Islamic scholar and writer in the
country, is forced to solicit donations with which to buy expensive newspaper
space in order to explain the Islamic viewpoint on such crucially important
subjects as addressed in this essay. He also has to correct misinformation and
lies about Islam from the malicious pens of an ever-increasing number of
crusading scribes who, with a straight face, would attempt to convince readers
to accept a ‘kiskedee’ (a favorite local bird) to be a ‘corbeaux’ (a vulture).
One of them just explained to us, again with a straight face, that when Prophet
Muhammad declared “a people who choose a woman to rule over them would never be
successful”, what he really meant (in her progressive interpretation) was that
it was permissible for Muslims to choose a woman to rule over them!
This writer also has to constantly defend against devilish attempts at character
assassination that maliciously seek to portray him as a “terrorist” and “a great
security risk”. And if that was not enough, he also has to prepare himself for
the new so-called ‘democratic’ dispensation now underway (i.e. the tribal
dictatorship and police state that this country’s ruling tribe is pursuing with
pig-headed determination) when freedom to buy even newspaper space would also be
denied to Islam.
THREE STAGES OF A MASTER-PLAN
This essay suggests the existence of three basic stages in a mysteriously
unfolding master-plan through which Israel seeks to realize her messianic
destiny. The master-plan is culminating at this time when the so-called ‘chosen
people’ have been mysteriously brought back from 2000 years of exile to reclaim
the Holy Land as their own. Their ultimate destiny, they believe, is to rule the
world from what would appear to be a restored Biblical Holy State of Israel
located in the Holy Land. (The word rule is continuously italicized because of
the pivotal place it occupies in the mission of the Anti-Christ.) That ultimate
destiny appears soon to be realized, and so it is time enough for our readers to
try to understand the subject from the perspective of Islam. In explaining those
three stages of the master-plan we can, in fact, also explain much of the
history of international politics and economics over the last few centuries.
In the first stage, which lasted for a long time, a Pax Britanica world-order
waged strange colonial wars on the rest of the world and eventually and cleverly
succeeded in ‘liberating’ the Holy Land from benevolent Muslim rule, and in
presiding over the birth of the imposter Euro-Jewish State of Israel. Along the
way the world witnessed the strange and otherwise inexplicable event of a
secular Britain pledging, in the Balfour Declaration of 1917, the secular
British Government’s commitment to deliver a national homeland in the Holy Land
to the Jewish people. Our thesis offers to readers an explanation for that
mysterious British obsession with the Holy Land.
We must also carefully note that in the effort to establish itself as the ruling
State in the world, Britain had to take the initial steps towards control of the
world’s money. (See the writer’s seminar on ‘Islam and Money’ available on his
website www.imranhosein.org) And so the British sterling pound became the
international currency, and Britain became the money-lender par excellence of
the world. This was a unique event in monetary history.
Then in the second stage of that master-plan – a stage which is still in
progress and which will last for a shorter time than the first - a Pax Americana
world-order replaced Pax Britanica and has proceeded to mysteriously protect the
arrogant, aggressive and expansionist Euro-Jewish State with countless UN
Security Council’s vetoes. That world-order has also been waging wars on
Israel’s behalf in order to make the world safe for Israel to grow into a
nuclear-armed superpower. Instead of the spectacular colonial wars which
delivered to Britain the status of a ruling state, it took two world wars to
bring about the transfer of power from the first to the second ruling state.
Our thesis offers to readers an explanation for that equally mysterious American
obsession with the Holy Land.
There was, in addition, a monetary component to the process of emergence of USA
as the second ruling state since the US dollar replaced the Sterling pound as
the international currency, and USA became the money-lender par excellence of
the world.
The history of these two ruling states, Britain and USA, suggests that whoever
achieves control over the world’s money, can also control the world. Control
over money can be used to prevent the circulation of wealth through the economy,
thus ensuring that the rich remained permanently rich and the poor, permanently
poverty. Control over money could also be used to buy the allegiance of the rich
who would grow constantly richer, and who would join the oppressor and assist
him in controlling the world. It would also reduce the poor to such impotence
that they become helpless to resist oppression. That is precisely the state of
the world today and it constitutes a critically important goal of the
master-plan.
And then in the third, final and briefest stage of the master-plan, a Pax
Judaica world-order is about to replace Pax Americana. The passage from the
second to the third and final ruling state in the master-plan is again taking
place through a series of strange wars. Israel would soon replace USA as the
ruling state in the world and when that occurs, a Jew would eventually rule the
world from Jerusalem and claim to be the true Messiah! But he would not be Jesus
the true Messiah. Rather, Prophet Muhammad explained that he would be Dajjal the
false Messiah (Anti-Christ).
We are now very close indeed to the culmination of that devilish master-plan
that has been ominously unfolding ever since the small island Britain startled
the world a few centuries ago by becoming the first ruling state in
post-Biblical history (i.e., since David and Solomon created the world’s first
ruling state).
TERRORISM AND THE MASTER-PLAN
The passage from the first to the second stage of the master-plan was initiated
through an act of carefully planned terrorism, i.e., the assassination of the
Grand Duke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary in Sarajevo in the summer of 1914.
Those who planned the assassination (was Trotsky part of the plot?) also planted
false footprints at the crime-scene that led to Russia. It paved the way for the
First World War which, in turn, was successfully used to dismember the Ottoman
Islamic Empire and to ‘liberate’ (i.e., from the Jewish perspective) the Holy
Land.
The passage from the second to the third stage of the master-plan was also
initiated through an act of less-carefully planned terrorism, i.e., the 9/11
terrorist attack on America. This time around the false footprints that were
planted at the crime-scene led to Arabs and Muslims, and that created
opportunities for an arrogant and power-drunk USA and its Euro-allies to wage a
series of wars (still in progress) to eventually impose total control over the
world’s major oil resources that were not already controlled - hence American
war on Afghanistan and Iraq, and Israeli wars on Lebanon, Gaza Strip, and
eventually Syria and Iran. War on Venezuela as well seems inevitable, and that,
perhaps, explains the haste with which the ruling tribe in Trinidad and Tobago
is seeking to establish its tribal dictatorship.
Today’s wars also allow USA/Israel to eventually control the new electronic
money-system of the world that would soon replace paper money when the US dollar
collapses. Anti-terrorism legislation and war on terrorism (which is a euphemism
for war on Islam) would eventually pave the way, in the name of international
security, for the imposition of a new international monetary system of
electronic money. That monetary system would make the world even safer for
Israel since anyone who dared to oppose Israel could be targeted as a terrorist
and could have his wealth electronically short-circuited.
The most important point this essay makes is the world is now located at that
moment in time when stage two of the master-plan is culminating and stage three
is commencing.
PROPHET MUHAMMAD, THE MASTER PLAN AND 666
I believe that Prophet Muhammad prophesied these three stages of the master-plan
(i.e., the ultimate world-system) through which Dajjal the false Messiah
(Anti-Christ) would eventually accomplish his mission of impersonating the true
Messiah and thus of ruling the world from an imposter State of Israel in the
Holy Land. The Prophet said: “… when Dajjal is released he would live on earth
for forty days — a day like a year — a day like a month — a day like a week —
and all his days (i.e., all the rest of his days) like your days.” (Sahih
Muslim)
He also prophesied, in what has come to be known as the Hadith of Tamim Dari,
that Dajjal’s initial base, i.e., in the first stage of his mission that would
last for ‘a day like a year’, would be an island which specialized in spying,
and was located about one month’s journey by sea from Arabia. I believe that
island could not have been other than Britain!
The Bible described the very same three-stage process that would culminate with
a new international monetary system of electronic money and with the Anti-Christ
ruling the world from Jerusalem. It did so when it declared: “…and he causeth
all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark on
their right hand, or on their forehead, and that no man might buy or sell, save
he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here
is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast, for it
is the number of a man, and his number is six hundred — three score — and six.”
(Revelation: 13:16-18)
When the Bible’s religious symbolism is analysed it clearly reveals that the
number ‘six hundred’ in relation to the Anti-Christ refers to the first stage of
the master plan that lasted for a long time and witnessed the emergence of the
first ruling state in post-Biblical history and to Pax Britanica. The number
‘three score’ refers to the present second stage that lasts for a shorter period
of time and witnesses the emergence of the second ruling state and to Pax
Americana. Finally the number ‘six’ refers to the third and last stage of the
master plan with which the Anti-Christ finally completes his mission and emerges
in human form to rule the world from Jerusalem and from an imposter ruling State
of Israel with Pax Judaica.
The most distinctive features of that unfolding master-plan from its very
beginning, with the Euro-Christian crusades, to this day, have been its
godlessness, decadence, deception and barbaric oppression. Only those who are
deaf, dumb and blind would recognize the above as evidence of divine grace.
We now look at differing responses to oppression.
RESPONDING TO OPPRESSION
Muslims who live in the modern age have long been inspired by the prince of
believers, Malcolm X, who once addressed the subject and explained the differing
responses to oppression endured by slaves. The ‘house slave’ was subject to the
same oppression as the ‘field slave’. Both were without ‘external’ freedom and
hence in ‘external’ slavery. But while the ‘field slave’ hated that oppression
and slavery, the ‘house slave’ submitted to it, identified with the slave
master, and accepted his slavery. He was so brainwashed and ‘internally’ blind
that he became an appendage of the slave master. He was always there to serve
the slave master, however required, and whenever the slave master needed him.
When the slave master was ill, the ‘house slave’ would feel his master’s pain
and suffering and would declare to his master: “we sick!” The ‘house slave’ was
both ‘internally’ as well as ’externally’ a slave. He became a part of the
system of slavery (the ‘internally’ blind always end up as slaves). The slave
master rewarded the ‘house slave’ for his faithful service by ‘buttering’ his
bread. He still does that today with a US visa, or with jobs and protection in
exchange for political support for the ruling tribe!
Around the world today ‘house slaves’ have hoisted themselves up to become
leaders of Muslim communities.
The ‘field slave’ on the other hand was ‘externally’ a slave but ‘internally’ a
free man. Because of that ‘internal’ freedom, the ‘field slave’ had the capacity
to ‘see’ and to thus recognize the slave master’s oppression and wickedness, and
he hated it with all his heart and soul. The ‘field slave’ never submitted to
oppression and wickedness but, rather, longed to regain his freedom and to
dismantle the system of slavery. And so the ‘field slave’ responded to
oppression and slavery in a manner that was anti-systemic. The slave master who
was an oppressor was his enemy with whom he would never play football or
cricket. Hence he would also never host either of today’s football or cricket
World Cup competitions. Instead, when the slave master’s house was on fire the
‘field slave’ prayed to God to send a strong wind which would burn down the
house. The slave master despised the ‘field slave’ and made him pay a terrible
price for his refusal to submit and become a willing part of the system of
slavery.
Muslims who faithfully follow Prophet Muhammad are today’s ‘field slaves’! Field
slaves who dare to offer armed resistance to Israel’s barbarous oppression in
the Holy Land and elsewhere are today demonized as terrorists. Had Malcolm X
been still alive today, it is certain that he would have been declared a
“terrorist” and “a great security risk”. His entry into most Caribbean states
would certainly have been banned.
The Anglo-American-Israeli alliance, which today rules the world, once demonized
South Africa’s African National Congress (ANC) as a terrorist organization. In
fact the ANC at that time was comprised exclusively of ‘field slaves’! Today, of
course, there is a house-slave/field-slave struggle within the ANC. Yesterday’s
heroic field-slave freedom-fighters around the world must be turning in their
graves as their children succeed them as rulers and are transformed into Massa’s
house-slaves.
When US President George Bush (Jr.) was preparing to wage his own unjust war on
Iraq, the ANC demonstrated courage and integrity in responding with a massive
street demonstration of protest. I marched with them in Johannesburg three years
ago (2003) on a bright sunny February morning when Zulu dancers stole my heart
with their hauntingly beautiful tribal chants and dances, and Nelson Mandela
defiantly denounced the war as an attempt to steal Iraq’s oil. Former Malaysian
Prime Minister Dr. Mahathir also, did not hesitate to denounce both the war on
Iraq as well as the 9/11 attacks on America as events planned and executed on
Israel’s behalf.
Trinidad and Tobago’s tribal government could not have been unaware of the
shameful implications of Prime Minister Manning’s ill-advised recent diplomatic
pilgrimage to Jerusalem in which he confirmed his government’s friendship for
the Euro-Jewish State of Israel. Perhaps this extraordinary high-profile
diplomatic initiative was required of him because an Israeli national was
embarrassingly caught red-handed while holed-up in a forest-shack close to the
town of Arouca in illegal possession of a Trinidad and Tobago immigration stamp.
Had he who was so caught been a Muslim he would never have been allowed to fly
out of the country with a light $2000 court fine and with narry a hint of any
charge connected to terrorism. Around the world today, Massa’s native house
slaves would have eagerly consented to his extradition to that curious new
manifestation of Republican America’s great symbol of democracy, i.e, a torture
camp in Guantanamo where American military personnel have been known to urinate
on copies of the Qur’an and to even flush copies of the Holy Book down the
toilet.
Apart from a few misguided so-called Muslim leaders in Trinidad and Tobago who
share with this country’s ruling tribe an embarrassing friendship for the
oppressor State of Israel, most local Muslims oppose the Euro-Jewish state and
many would gladly join in the struggle for liberation from Israeli oppression.
They are not alone in their opposition to that oppression as is evident from
recent essays by David Abdullah and Raffique Shah published in local newspapers.
Indeed as long ago as the 17th century the English poet, John Donne (1572-1631)
recognized in verse what the ruling tribe in this country still cannot
recognize: “And when the ‘chosen people’ grew more strong, Their righteous cause
became the wrong.”
As the full picture of Israel’s continuing aerial bombardment and destruction of
Gaza and Lebanon continues to unfold, and as Israel continues to expand the mad
war of destruction now underway, perhaps to test whether Iran has nuclear
weapons, we can confidently expect more people of this country to denounce
Israel for its war crimes. Politicians, however, and regretfully so, hardly ever
muster the integrity and fortitude to call a spade a spade when Israel happens
to be the spade!
THE CHRISTIAN VIEW OF THE SUBJECT
Many Christians declare that the birth of the Euro-Jewish State of Israel was an
act of divine grace that fulfilled Biblical prophesy. It was also divine grace,
in their view, which explained the seemingly miraculous return of the Jews to
the Holy Land to reclaim it as their own some 2000 years after they were
expelled therefrom by divine decree.
Such misguided people do not pause to consider that the essentially godless,
decadent and oppressive Euro-world-order that ‘liberated’ the Holy Land from
benevolent Muslim rule and made possible the return of the Jews to that Holy
Land could not possibly have been an instrument of such divine grace since truth
is incompatible with godlessness, decadence and oppression.
They believe that today’s Euro-Jewish State of Israel is destined to rule the
world and that its destiny would finally be realized with crowning glory when
God Himself, in the person of the true Messiah the son of the Virgin Mary,
returns to rule the world from Jerusalem. They believe that end of history to be
now close at hand, and when it does materialize they believe it would confirm
the Christian claim to truth. In the meantime they insist that every bloody step
that Israel takes to expand her control over territory and to impose her
authority over the surrounding Arab/Muslim world must be supported since it
fulfills corrupted imperialist Biblical prophesy (“every spot on which your
foot treads shall be yours”; Deuteronomy: -11-24.). They close their eyes to
Israel’s shedding of innocent blood since they believe that the evil Israeli war
dance is morally and spiritually justified in the context of the fulfillment of
Biblical prophecy.
According to Christian supporters, Israel’s conduct may appear to be that of an
oppressor, but there is a mysterious moral philosophy somewhere in the universe
(perhaps in Hollywood) that exonerates Israel and justifies as divine punishment
the oppression and wanton slaughter that she has unleashed on largely
defenseless Arabs, Christians, as well as Muslims. They regard all those who
oppose and resist Israel to be evil. And since the true followers of Prophet
Muhammad remain the only significant force resisting the Euro-Jewish state’s
oppression, they consider Muslims to be the most evil people in the world. When
David Abdullah asked “Has Israel has gone mad?”, and Raffique Shah warned “Don’t
cry for Israel when retribution comes”, they probably blame the ‘misguidance’ of
these two scribes on the Muslim connection implicit in their names. They are
convinced that Muslims must be the evil Gog and Magog tribes mentioned in their
scriptures, and that Prophet Muhammad must have been the Anti-Christ.
THE JEWISH VIEW OF THE SUBJECT
If the evangelical Christian view of modern-day Israel is so difficult to
digest, what are we to make of the prevalent Jewish view that believes Jesus to
be a ‘bastard’ and false Messiah, and Muhammad to be a false Prophet?
Most Jews believe that the birth of modern Israel and the return of the Jews to
the Holy Land herald the imminent advent of the true Messiah who would rule the
world from Jerusalem and through whom truth in Judaism would be validated. Such
validation of truth in Judaism, they believe, would ipso facto invalidate
Christian and Muslim claims to truth, and would also confirm the Jews as the
“chosen people” to whom God had granted the Holy Land unconditionally and in
perpetuity.
Now the secularism of modern western civilization has led western society
increasingly towards atheism and godlessness. The West also has a despicable
record of oppression of non-Europeans.
People who worship the God of Abraham cannot become allies of those with a
record of such atheism, godlessness and oppression. But Jewish Israel believes
that it has a divine right to use whatever means may be necessary to realize its
goal of ruling the world from Jerusalem since the ‘end’ justifies the ‘means’.
What also appears to Israel’s critics as oppression and barbarism on Ishmaelite
Muslims is, in their view, divine punishment that is justified by the Torah. How
so?
.
Arabs and Muslims have descended from Abraham’s son, Ishmael, who was condemned
in the Torah as: “… a wild ass of a man; his hand against every man (i.e., he
is a bandit), and everyone’s hand against him (i.e., all of mankind would hate
him and fight against him).” (Genesis: -16:12)
The Torah also falsely proclaimed that the Holy Land was given to the seed of
Abraham through Isaac (Ishmael being falsely excluded as legitimate seed) and
that the Israelite claim to the title deed of the Holy Land remains valid
regardless of whether or not they are righteous in conduct: “Know therefore
that it is not for thy righteousness that the Lord thy God giveth thee this good
land to possess it; for thou art a stiff-necked people.” (Deuteronomy 9:6)
But most alarming of all is the Torah’s frontiers of the Holy Land: “On that
day the Lord made a covenant with Abraham, saying:“To your offspring I give this
land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates . . . .”
(Genesis: -15:18)
Our readers can now understand the connection between distortions in a corrupted
Torah and Israel’s ominously ever-expanding territorial frontiers.
THE QUR’AN AND THE HOLY LAND
The Qur’an makes a crucially important statement concerning certain Christians
and Jews who would eventually emerge in history. It says: “You will find
(time and again) that the most hostile of all people to the believers (i.e.,
Muslims) would be the Jews and those who are idol-worshippers or pagans; and
nearest among them in love to the believers would be those who say, ‘We are
Christians’, because amongst these are men devoted to learning and men who have
renounced the world, and they are not arrogant.” (Qur’an, al-Maidah, 5:82)
It prohibits Muslim friendship or alliance with a Judeo-Christian alliance:
“Oh you who believe (in this Qur’an), do not take (such) Jews and the Christians
as (your) friends and allies who themselves are friends and allies of each
other. And whoever of you allies himself with them becomes, verily, one of them;
behold, Allah does not guide such evildoers.” (Qur’an, al-Maidah, 5:51)
It has corrected the falsehood about Ishmael: “Also mention in the Book (the
story of) Ishmael: He was (strictly) true to whatever he promised and he was an
Apostle (and) a Prophet. He used to enjoin on his people prayer and charity and
he was most acceptable in the sight of his Lord.” (Qur’an, Maryam, 19:54-5)
It has also corrected the falsehood concerning the alleged unconditional grant
of the Holy Land to the Israelite people. Rather, Allah Most High granted them
the Holy Land conditional on “faith in Allah” and “righteous conduct”: “… and We
declared in (both) the Torah and the Psalms (of David) that (only) Our righteous
servants shall inherit the earth or land (i.e., the Holy Land).” (Qur’an,
Prophets, 21:105)
This statement of the Qur’an is supported by some of the Psalms: “But the
meek shall inherit the earth or land (i.e., the Holy Land); and shall delight
themselves in the abundance of peace.” (Psalm, 37:11)
“The righteous shall inherit the earth or land (i.e., the Holy Land), and
dwell therein forever (i.e. provided that they remain righteous).” (Psalm,
37:29)
“Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth or land (i.e., the
Holy Land).” (Matthew, 5:5)
The Qur’an has explained that whenever the Israelites violated the divine
conditions of inheritance of the Holy Land (i.e., faith in God and righteous
conduct) Allah Most High expelled them from that Land. The first expulsion took
place after the death of Solomon (peace be upon him) as a consequence of their
“telling lies about Allah” (i.e., rewriting the scriptures to plant falsehoods
in them). They were exiled to Babylon. Upon their return to the Holy Land they
again violated those divine conditions when they rebelled against Allah’s
Prophets and killed several of them. They even boasted of how they had crucified
Jesus. As a consequence they were again expelled from the Holy Land.
After that last expulsion took place in the wake of the rejection of the true
Messiah and the attempt to crucify him, Allah Most High declared “… if you
return (i.e., to the Holy Land with your wickedness and oppression), We would
return (with Our punishment).” (Qur’an Israellites 17:8)
The Israelites have today returned to the Holy Land with more wickedness and
oppression than ever before, and hence it should be quite clear to those who can
recognize wickedness and oppression that Divine retributive punishment as
promised in the Qur’an is also certain.
