  • Valentine’s Day – Its reality and ruling – II

    Allah warned us from following the disbelievers or supporting them and commanded us to differ from them. He Almighty Says (what means): “O you who have believed!

  • Gaza children traumatized after Israeli offensive

    Five-year-old Mohammed al-Najjar lets his mind wander as he puts crayon to paper in an effort to depict an Israeli air strike inside a refugee camp in the Gaza Strip. "This is the plane and those are two missiles it fired. They hit a house and the house was damaged but was fine. The fridge caught fire," he says in matter-of-fact detail,.. More

  • Obstacles in Gaza

    Israel's three-week war on Gaza caused billions of dollars in damage and left the already-tattered local economy on the verge of collapse. Some of the world's richest countries - including the US which has promised a $20-million aid package - have pledged monies to rebuild the Gaza Strip. Al Jazeera's Zeina Awad reports that rivalry between Hamas,.. More

  • The beginning of the end for Israel

    TRY as he might, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert can not snatch any sort of victory out of the jaws of defeat that are closing down on the failed Zionist project. This, quite simply, is the beginning of the end for Israel. The only thing Israel has proved it can do militarily better than anyone else is kill innocent women and children. And in its.. More

  • Palestinian men bear trauma of war

    The war on Gaza has taken a heavy emotional and mental toll on the people of the Gaza Strip. Doctors say that at least half of the population need professional help to come to terms with the war. Palestinian men have been hit especially hard. Many of them have spent the last two years struggling to find work under Israel's blockade of the territory.. More

  • Fear and trauma in Gaza's schools

    As students filed into the courtyard of Asma elementary school in Gaza City for the first time since the Israeli offensive began, they were greeted by a bleak reminder of the violence that left more than 1,300 Palestinians dead and thousands injured. A hole punched by an Israeli rocket scarred the courtyard latrine and blood soiled the wall beside.. More

  • Gazans pledge to rebuild

    The survivors of the Israeli offensive in Gaza have slowly begun to restore a semblance of normalcy to their daily lives. Public facilities are operating once again, the streets are being cleared, tractors are at work removing piles of rubble, power lines are being fixed and electricity and water services are being restored to homes in Gaza. Government.. More

  • Israeli crimes on Palestinians before and after Hamas

    Startling-and stomach turning: where Palestinians are involved, memory and sense of proportion fail us. The Jewish conscience, justifiably, has long called upon the world's powers and upon their citizens to remain vigilant, never to forget -in the name of "the duty of memory"- the atrocities, massacres and genocides of the past. But where.. More

  • NATO genocide in Afghanistan

    Sloganeers, propagandists and politicians often use the word "genocide" in ways that the law does not permit. But rarely is the crime of genocide invoked when Western militaries murder Muslim groups. This essay argues that the internationally recognized crime of genocide applies to the intentional killings that NATO troops commit on a weekly.. More

  • "This brutality will never break our will to be free"

    By: Khalid Mish'al For 18 months my people in Gaza have been under siege, incarcerated inside the world's biggest prison, sealed off from land, air and sea, caged and starved, denied even medication for our sick. After the slow death policy came the bombardment. In this most densely populated of places, nothing has been spared Israel's warplanes, from.. More

  • "I am Israel"

    I am Israel - I came to a land without a people for a people without a land. Those people who happened to be here, had no right to be here, and my people showed them they had to leave or die, razing 480 Palestinian villages to the ground, erasing their history. I am Israel - some of my people committed massacres and later became Prime Ministers to.. More

  • Gaza: How biased media manipulates the facts

    THE media coverage of the war in Gaza by Western television companies is largely unfair and biased because of a refusal to show viewers the real images of the victims. One of the reasons for this is Israel’s decision not to allow the Western media in to Gaza. In addition to this outrageous censorship by a so-called democracy, we get the usual.. More

  • Gaza: The Massacre in Zeitoun

    IN the annals of war crimes, the name "Zeitoun" will assume its place alongside names like "My Lai," "Fallujah," "Sabra-Shatila," "Guernica," "Nanking," "Lidice," and "Wounded Knee." In the last two days, the massacre that took place in Zeitoun, a neighborhood on the southern.. More
