A prominent Muslim cleric in Palermo, in Sicily, said the Israeli killing of children aims to eliminate the resistance saying these children would turn into men to continue the path of resistance in future.

Sheikh Badri Khalfallah, the prayer leader of Palermo in Italy, speaking at the fifth webinar of al-Aqsa Storm, expressed sympathy with the Palestinians in Gaza and vowed perseverance of the people in the besieged Gaza Strip against Israeli enemies, reported Taqrib News Agency (TNA).
 
He said,” Enemies, in killing children, pursue elimination of the resistance because these children are the future members to reenforce resistance groups.”
 
He said,” Some people intend to affiliate the resistance with terrorism though this is a distortion of the truth and history by arrogant powers. This is an exploitation of the media to convert the truth.”
 
The Tunisian thinker called for more support for the Palestinian resistance and condemned any form of normalization with Israeli regime, as done by some countries.
 
Sheikh Badri Khalfallah said the resistance movement should be maintained and that Muslims should all instruct their children to keep Palestine as major issue for the world of Islam.
 
The fifth edition of the webinar entitled “Al-Aqsa Storm” has been held by Iran’s World Forum for Proximity of Islamic Schools of Thought attended by the cultural and political figures from Iran and across the globe.
