US, Europe back Israel: Zubair

Islami Jamhoori Ittehad (IJI) president and Markazi Jamaat Ahle Hadith, Allama Zubair Ahmad Zaheer Monday said without the backing of US and Europe Israel cannot face Hamas for a single day.

Talking to reporters after addressing a meeting convened to discuss the Gaza bombing by Israeli forces, he said the courageous stance of Hamas fighters has united the Muslim world from Morocco to Indonesia. He said the Muslims living in non-Muslim countries are one for the cause of the freedom of Al-Aqsa Mosque and Palestine. Allama Zubair said today every Muslim is demanding Muslim armies must move forward to protect the besieged helpless Palestinians and liberate the first Qibla of Islam and the blessed land of Palestine from the clutches of an illegal Zionist state.

He said if expansionist nefarious designs of Israel were not countered today, it will not stop at the Palestine and would encroach all Muslims countries who would have to face consequences of being inactive today. IJI Punjab-chapter president Mian Muhammad Asghar and secretary general Allama Shahid Saleem were also present on the occasion.
