The American Congress Welcomes the Butcher of Gaza – No Surprise

Immediately after the events of October 7, America mobilized its naval fleets to ensure that the Ummah would not intervene to stop the horrifying massacres being committed in Gaza. America further supported its clients in the region among the Arab and Muslim rulers in restraining the armies of the Ummah, preventing them from coming to the aid of the people in the blessed land of Palestine. The bloodshed in Gaza has continued for ten months, with the disgraced and humiliated client rulers imposed on the Ummah preventing those with power from assisting them, until the Zionist state, with American help, finished off the unarmed women, children, and men of Gaza.

After accomplishing this dirty mission – or nearly so – America brought in the butcher of Gaza, the butcher of children, to reward him for his vile actions, welcoming him with the honor of a hero's reception. He addressed their Congress in their language without stammering, indicating that they are of one kind, exactly as described by The New York Times, which stated: "He looked like an American president delivering a State of the Union address." It added that Netanyahu "also found space in his remarks to praise the strong relationship between the United States and Israel," noting that during this speech, he sought to portray the war as a battle between good and evil, between civilization and barbarism.

Indeed, the war is between good and evil, the good inherent in Islam and Muslims as testified by the Lord of the worlds against the illusions and lies of the butchers and their backers. Allah Almighty says:

[كُنْتُمْ خَيْرَ أُمَّةٍ أُخْرِجَتْ لِلنَّاسِ تَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَتَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَتُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللهِ وَلَوْ آمَنَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ لَكَانَ خَيْراً لَهُمْ مِنْهُمُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَأَكْثَرُهُمُ الْفَاسِقُونَ]

“You are the best nation produced [as an example] for mankind. You enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and believe in Allah. If only the People of the Scripture had believed, it would have been better for them. Among them are believers, but most of them are defiantly disobedient” [Quran 3:110]. If the Ummah were not subdued by client rulers who are agents of the West, led by America, it would have shown humanity true justice and mercy based on the divine teachings of Islam, even with these butchers, whom the Caliphate once sheltered from the persecution of European Crusaders.

The arrogant address of the butcher of Gaza in the heart of the Western world, boasting of his victory over Muslims—due to the absence of this Ummah's Farooq—makes evident that the decision-makers in America have completed the massacres in Gaza through military, economic, political, and media support. The illegitimate Zionist state in the land of Muslims is merely a tool for oppressing Muslims on behalf of its masters in the American deep state and in reality is nothing but a forward military base in the heart of the Islamic world, striking out at anyone who steps out of the house of its slavery and colonialism. It is like "a cat that puffs itself up to appear like a lion."

On the other hand, the general America public remains unaware of the full support their rulers provide to the butcher of Gaza. This is because their rulers, acknowledging that the killing of innocents is a despicable act detested by human souls and condemned by common people, hold the stick from the middle. They deploy all tools of killing for their hired killer, while at the same time blaming him if he fails in his mission or when their barbaric actions are exposed. Additionally, the general public does not realize that Islam – which their rulers describe as "terrorism" – is God's religion and a complete way of life that God has chosen for His creation.

Therefore, we must present Islam in its true light in the West, as the civilizational alternative to the tyrannical civilization imposed on the world—not by engaging in the unjust system through participation in its elections. This way, we fulfill the trust Allah (swt) has entrusted us with, conveying the message as Allah (swt) loves and is pleased with, and we become a positive force in American society, loving all good for it – Islam as a system of life and a way of living as Allah (swt) intended for us and them – and not loving the acts of its rulers' crimes or their support of criminals in its name.

[ادْعُ إِلَى سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَالْمَوْعِظَةِ الْحَسَنَةِ وَجَادِلْهُمْ بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ]

“Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction, and argue with them in a way that is best” [Quran 16:125].
