We are saddened by the loss of innocent lives in the Middle East. The killing of innocent civilians can never be justified. We stand with the few who call for the cessation of killing whether it is through the use of weapons or starving an entire population to death whilst bombing them with western aid. In a hypocritical world, we call for justice to prevail. We beseech Allah to aid the oppressed and grant them peace in this life and the hereafter.
What atrocity would Israel have to commit for our leaders to break their silence?
