What did Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan really say to Israeli President Shimon Peres at Davos? The English translation provided was sanitised to such a degree that the end result became less harsh than the intended criticism which Mr. Erdogan dished out to the terrorist Peres. Here is the running translation of the Davos incident, translated by Asdren Zajmi:
Mr. Peres, you are older than me, yet your [tone of] voice is so loud. The reason why your voice is such is because of a sinner’s psychological disorder. My voice will not be as loud as yours. So keep that in mind.
When it comes to killing, you know very well how to work this out. I know very well how you killed the children playing on the beach. I know two important statements [coming] from two of your Prime Ministers. Your Prime Ministers have said, “When I enter Palestine with tanks, I feel a great happiness inside”. Whereas you can only give me numbers [for the Palestinians killed until now], I can give you the names of those Prime Ministers…maybe some of you are curious to know. I also denounce and criticize those that applaud this injustice because applauding those who kill children and innocent people, I think, is inhuman. It is also a humanitarian crisis, we cannot leave the truth aside.
I took a lot of notes [from Peres' talk] but I am not about to respond to all of them now. I just want to say a few things: firstly, in the Sixth Commandments of the Tawrat, it is said that “You shall not kill” but we can clearly see that Israel has done mass killings [of civillians]. Secondly, it is very interesting [to note] that Jewish writer Gilad Atzmon has said “Israeli barbarianism is beyond cruelty”. Also, we have the professor of International Relations at Oxford University, Avi Shlaim — who had been an Israeli soldier — saying in The Guardian newspaper that “Israel is a nation of burglars”.
From this point onwards, Davos is over for me and I will not come to Davos anymore because you did not let me speak freely. He [Peres] spoke for 25 minutes whereas you only let me speak for 12 minutes…this is unacceptable.
A great song from a well-known hadith narrated by Imam Ahmad dan Bukhari regarding the amrullah (defenders of God) who will struggle against oppression and injustice living in Jerusalem and the area surrounding it (modern-day Palestine). This has been foretold by the Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. and the struggle of the Palestinians will indeed continue until the day the Messiah Jesus a.s. return to earth and restore Islam to the world based on the Shariah of Muhammad s.a.w.
Israel is facing accusations of using white phosphorous in its offensive in the Gaza Strip. Israel has neither cofirmed or denied the use of the chemical, thought to be dangerous for civilians. In absence of an Israeli clarification, debate is growing on whether using the chemical is legally and ethically permissible.
Al Jazeera’s Jacky Rowland spoke with Marc Garlasco, a weapons expert, who says there is little doubt that the Israelis are using white phosphorous.
Seriously. If one is still supporting Israel openly despite the evidence of this, this or even this, I really do not know what should I say about people like them. Yes, we know that you support the Zionist goal of a purist Jewish state where ethnic cleansing and “Arab transfer” (the Zionist euphemism for expulsion) of Palestinians are the order of the day, but have a heart, will you? Imagine if Gazacaust were to happen to you or your family…will you still be supporting Israel blindly despite that?
As for those Hamas rockets….what Hamas rockets? Are you talking about those same crude, home-made rockets that were fired in response to the Israeli aggression and causing the deaths of only four obscure Israelis thus far? You are telling me that Israel, with all its superpower might and military supremacy in the Middle East, are unable to deal with a few mosquito rockets and thus have no choice but to carpet-bomb the civillian population of Gaza (the most densely-populated area in the world) with their F-16 jets in response to those same crude rockets? Oh, please…I have heard this excuse before. Israel is not going to get away with this massacre this time around like they did in Sabra & Shatilla, Jenin, Qana and Qalqilya. The world is opposed to Israeli aggression and rabid supporters of Israel are not going to change that opinion one single bit.
May Allah s.w.t. destroy the Zionist nation of Israel….sooner rather than later, insha’allah. Ameen, ameen, thumma ameen!
