Iranian nation and Muslims across the globe are preparing themselves to stage rallies on Al-Quds day so as to voice their support for the Palestinian nation and repeat their call for an end to the Tel Aviv regime’s atrocities and its occupation of the Palestinian territories. They attend the rallies to communicate to the world the deplorable status of the down-trodden Palestinians and press the Israeli regime to respect Palestinian rights.
On this day, religious clerics, political faces and thinkers urge Muslims from all sects and denominations in the World of Islam to put their disputations and differences aside and try their very utmost to promote unity and proximity on this day. With this connection, in an exclusive interview with Taqrib News Agency (TNA) which you can read in the following, American University professor and former Imam of Islamic Center of Washington, Muhammad al-Asi detailed his views on the necessity and prime importance of marking Al-Quds day.
1- As for humane values and code of ethics, how do you see Zionist Israel's actions and policy in Palestinian territories?
There is absolutely nothing humane about the zionist regime's policies in colonized Palestine. The record speaks for itself. The Holy Land, due to zionist Israel's military stranglehold, has become "hell on earth" for the native Muslim and Christian Palestinians. The zionist policy makers have enacted rules and passed laws that amount to a slow and systemic eradication of the Palestinian people.
You just have to look at the daily manifestations of aggression by the Israeli offense force: roadblocks everywhere; official and "street" discrimination against Palestinians; the stranglehold imposed on the Ghazzah area with news reports now of cutting off 80% of Ghazzah's electricity supply. Night and day raids into the privacy of Palestinian families; detention and imprisonment without fair legal procedures, military executions on-the-spot, etc...
I could go on and on detailing the frequent and random violations of morals and ethics and all standards of decent human behavior.
2- What role can United Nation play in resolving Palestine crisis? How do you evaluate what has been done with this regard by the body up to date?
I think the United Nations has been either ineffective, neutral, or out-right wrong when it comes to what is called the "Arab-Israeli" conflict. Yes, the United Nations offers some Palestinians handout assistance via its UNRWA. But the United Nations and its Security Council are virtually zilch anytime a motion is placed on its table for consideration. The US Veto has shielded the zionist regime scores of times when Security Council members saw fit to hold the regime in Tel Aviv responsible for its violations of the UN charter, of UN procedures, etc...
The UN reports to those who have the assets of wealth and the instruments of war. From my reading of events, there is no hope at all for the UN to do anything substantial in solving the Palestinian tragedy.
3- How does the western main stream media show the reality of the plagued situation and political or social turmoil in occupied Palestine to the World?
Western main stream media (MSM) has always been supportive of the Israeli colonization of Palestine. That support is either blatant -- taking the side of Israel and ignoring the side of the Palestinians. Or it has been sophisticated enough to present Israeli merits and Palestinian merits making sure that the presentation of the Israeli merits far outweigh Palestinian merits. This is true throughout the media outlets in America and Europe.
The western MSM is not free to report events as they happen. Their is an obvious bias by media gatekeepers to highlight the past agony and discrimination against "Jews" corresponding to a not-so-obvious implementation of ignoring the current and real agony and discrimination against Christian Palestinians and Muslim Palestinians. Even Jews who are opposed to zionist Israel are ignored by the imperialist MSM.
