This is a speech that I gave when I was invited to a rally for Palestine. This was prior to the [ongoing] conflict that the Zionists always seem to make it as if these conflicts are occurring at the time that they are, as if it isn’t a ongoing theme of oppression by them, while making themselves look like victims. This was a rally on June 13th, 2021 in Camden, NJ, organized by the Muslim Federation of South Jersey. I was invited to say a few words. This was the actual speech, but in the video below, you can see that I went off script a little bit!

We are gathered here today for a common cause, a cause that has prompted rage and anger. The cause of oppression of our brothers and sisters in Palestine is one that must be addressed, and I am here to say to you today, the way to address it, and the way that we are going about it by rallying and protesting is not the way to do it. There have been a number of protests, demonstrations and rallies, and they all basically revolve around the same theme: appealing to the powers that be for justice, or to address and end the blatant injustices that are inflicted on the Palestinian people (and others around the world).

It is time for us to truly recognize that the powers that we are appealing to for stopping injustices or demanding justice and accountability for the atrocities that are committed against a defenseless people, they do not recognize pleas, and such is the nature of a beast. You all DO know that we are dealing with beasts, right? They are in the form of cowardly Israeli soldiers who harass and intimidate a people of unarmed men, women, and children who have no defense against them (you can search online Israeli soldiers drawing fully automatic weapons on schoolchildren), and they receive orders from a morally deprived and mentally deranged Israeli government, and tacit approval- or neglect -from their partners here of the United States government. They are partners in their oppression of people; what Israel is doing over there is what America has done to the Native Americans and descendants of kidnapped Afrikaans here; subjugation of people for their imperialistic advancements, totally disregarding their basic humanity! Israel are the bullying beasts in the region who are doing open demonstrations of anti-Semitic behavior, and for that reason alone they must be stopped. They are not going to be stopped by rallying; beasts have to be put down, and bullies have to be dominated by a superior force that isn’t afraid of them, and so the appeal today should be to those who are able to do that, put an end to the bullies and the beasts. Remember what Allah has said: 
 

فَقَاتِلُوا أَوْلِيَاءَ الشَّيْطَانِ

“So fight against the allies of Satan…” [Qur’an 4:76]
