"There will be scholars and historians who will write of this genocide, falsely believing that we can learn from the past, that we are different, that history can prevent us from being, once again, barbarians. They will hold academic conferences. They will say “Never again!” They will praise themselves for being more humane and civilized.
But when it comes time to speak out with each new genocide, fearful of losing their status or academic positions, they will scurry like rats into their holes. Human history is one long atrocity for the world’s poor and vulnerable. Gaza is another chapter."

Prostitution of the Intellect
John Swinton, former Chief of Staff of the most powerful and prestigious newspaper on earth, The New York Times, when asked to give a toast to the "free press" at the New York Press Club stated:
"There is no such thing, at this date of the world's history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with.
Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone.
The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth; to lie outright; to pervert; to vilify; to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men.
"We are intellectual prostitutes."

If, as argued by Brian Tracy, the true test of leadership is how well you function in a crisis, then it's clear why the leadership of the Ummah is destined to emerge from the region of Palestine.

The ICJ Ruling: Victory or Setback? | Ali Hammuda
When the International Court of Justice (ICJ) issued its landmark ruling that found it plausible that Israel’s acts could amount to genocide, the reaction among Muslims was mixed, with some feeling tremendous disappointment. However, one story shared by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) offers a complete shift in perspective.

Imam al-Suyooti said:
"Five qualities in children, if adults possessed them in their relationship with their Lord, they would be saints:
1 They do not worry about their livelihoods,
2 They do not complain about their Creator when they fall ill,
3 They eat their food together,
4 When they are afraid, their eyes fill with tears,
5 When they quarrel, they are quick to make peace."
[Husn al-muhaadara]
Relatives of a young family member of ours who was killed in Gaza several weeks ago told us that she was recently seen in a dream. She conveyed that she is happy where she is and has no longing to be back in this world.
She also told them how she is seeing the effects of her frequent recitation of Surah al-Mulk (Surah 67) during her life, and how it is making things easier for her in the grave.
Ibn Mas’ood said:
من قرأ: تبارك الذي بيده الملك ـ كل ليلة منعه الله بها من عذاب القبر وكنا في عهد رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم نسميها المانعة وإنها في كتاب الله سورة من قرأ بها في كل ليلة فقد أكثر وأطاب
“Whoever recites Surah al-Mulk every night, Allah will protect him from the punishment of the grave through it. During the time of the Messenger of Allah PBUH, we used to call this Surah 'The Protector'. Indeed, it is a chapter which, whoever recites it every night has indeed done much good and has made things pleasant."
May Allah honour the people of Gaza who continue to liberate us even after they've passed on.

"To the generals who accompanied me in the recent weeks, it seems we are about to part ways, but I thank you from the bottom of my heart. For the extraordinary humanity you have shown towards my daughter Emilia. You were like parents to her, allowing her into your quarters whenever she wished. She acknowledges feeling that you all are not just her friends, but truly dear and good loved ones. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the many hours you spent like a nanny.
Thank you for being patient with her, for showering her with sweets and fruits, and everything available, even when it was not. Children should not be in captivity, but thanks to you and other kind people we met along the way, my daughter felt like a queen in Gaza. In general, she felt as if she were the center of the world. We did not meet anyone on our long journey, from the rank and file to the leadership, who did not treat her with gentleness, tenderness, and love.
I will forever be a prisoner of gratitude because she did not leave here with a lifelong psychological trauma. I will remember your kind behavior, which was given here despite the difficult situation you were dealing with yourselves and the severe losses you suffered here in Gaza. I wish in this world we could be truly good friends.
I wish you all health and wellness."
