The Israeli

1. Do you agree with me that human life, dignity, rights, freedom, health, food, water and environment are in danger?

2. On the other hand do you feel as I feel that there is a big defect in values, moral, safety, security and stability nowadays?

3. Do you feel that we are living in a gloomy forest and swimming in a big sea of bloodshed .Yet we are suffering from a huge and collective holocaust.

Dear colleagues,

· I think we are here to contemplate together what is the source of this human disaster?

· Let us search what is the root reason of all these evils and corruptions?

· Let us discover the essential reason of the Israeli – Palestinian conflict as the worst case within the world human tragedy.

· Is it a result of the theory of determinsim of clash between religions, cultures and civilizations as somebody had said?

· Is it a normal stage of human life towards the end of history as someone had said that also before?

I don’t think so; there is no rational person should think so. It is kind of nonsense; yet it is absolutely dementia for any body to think so.

There is nothing what is so called determinism of clash between cultures and civilizations. As well as there is no end of the history before a day of resurrection. History is connected with a movement of the scientific innovation that is endless.

Dear colleagues,

From my part, I think and believe that the essential source and the deep root of all the evils and corruptions that we are suffering in our life nowadays is an absence of the Justice among people and communities throughout the world. The Israeli – Palestinian case should be understood in this context; I think it is a worst example of injustice in the world.

Therefore, I think the shortest and the best practical way to tackle this issue; and to put an end to it’s disasters is Justice. We have to be convinced there will be no Peace without Justice.

Thank you and goodbye

· Interpositions:

the historical side of the Jerusalem. and Some essential facts:

1- That the AL-Aqsaa Mosque has been built by Adam(Pbuh)then reconstructed by Abraham (pbuh)that easily means that the AL-Aqsaa Mosque is the oldest Holy Place in Palestine that has been known before all Prophets (pbut).

2- That the Arab tribes were the first people to reside in Palestine since the Holy Koran reminds us that the Israelis rejected to enter Palestine when Allmighty ordered them to enter it as they said: O Moses! In it ( the holy land)are a people of great strength (Palestinian People), and we shall never enter it till they leave it; when they leave, then we will enter.5/21

3- Muslims respect all places of the Divine religions, because they believe in all Prophets, Messengers and Holy Books of ALLAH Almighty. Muslims have not any religious problem with other religion’s flowers.

4- some People are mentioned that the Holy Makkah is a Capital of the Arabia Saudi. Hence, it is right of Israelis to take Jerusalem Capital to their State.

I would like to explain the follows regarding this ambiguity:

a. Holy Makkah has not taken Capital for any Islamic State throughout the Islamic history.

b. Compliance with this Islamic traditional. The Saudi Regime dos not take Holy Makkah Capital to his State. The thing that is well known; that AL-Riyadh is the Capital of Saudi regime since its foundation till now.

· Commentaries:

1. I support what my dear colleague said: that the both sides Israelis and Palestinians should go on hand by hand. But we have to recognize that there is a big difference between the free hand and a chained or cuffed hand. We have to agree that the Palestinian people are occupied today. hence there is no possibility of comparison between the occupier and the occupied.

2. I think that the occupation of the Palestinian territories is the main reason for the violence and bloodshed current case between the Israelis and Palestinians.

3. There is a Chinese saying says let flowers to be opened.

I think that the flowers of this meeting have opened this morning. It is a positive case; It is kind of transparency which we are in need of.

Please let me in this comfortable weather of negotiation express my perspective regarding the essential reasons of the problem between Palestinian people and Jews.

I am sorry if I seemed so too outspoken with my Jewish colleagues. However, we are here to know each other and to speculate mutual conceptions, in the same time I will be ready to receive with good-hearted the reflections on my following ideas:

1. I think it is wrong when Jews stress that they are the chosen people of ALLAH and other human beings of the second rank. Yes I know that the Holy Koran has mentioned that ALLAH said: O Children of Israel! Remember my favor which I bestowed upon you and that I preferred you to the universaries.2/ 47

But we have to know some thing regarding this preference; that it is a fiducial preference not national preference because ALLAH Almighty has preferred all other believers as he said in the Holy Koran: ALLAH chose Adam, NUh, The family of Ibraham and the family of Imran above the universalies.3/ 33 That means easily that ALLAH Almighty had chosen all those peoples for their belief not for their nationalities.

2. Also it is wrong when they believe that a Palestine is a holy Land that has been given to them alone by ALLAH. Yes I know that the Holy Koran had mentioned that Prophet Moses had addressed the group which had believed in ALLAH and followed him (Moses): O my people entire the Holy Land (Palestine) which ALLAH has assigned to you and turn not back for then you will be turned as losers.5/21 This verse means that ALLAH almighty has rewarded a faithful group of Israelis by giving them permission to entire the Holy Land which He has assigned to every believer in that time.

3. Also they are mistaken when they decide and believe that right of worship in holy Places gives every Jew in the world from any nationality right of possession of the Holy Land ( Palestine ) and the right of living in it. You can imagine what may happen if this rule has been applied in the world!? You have to imagine if all Christians have come to live in Bethlehem as it is a place where Jesus ( Pbuh ) has been born; and if all Muslims have come to live in Palestine on the pretext of the Holy Aqsaa is the first Kiblah and as the nocturnal journey end of Prophet Mohammad ( Pbuh ) or to go to the Arabia Saudi to possess its lands and to live there on the plea of existence of the Holy Kaaba and as it is their Kiblah in Prayer and all their religious rituals; and as the Holy Makkah and all lands around of it are in their sight the most sacred place in the Earth ; on the other hand you have to imagine what may happen if all Buddhists in the world have crept to Peking ( Capital of China ) since Buddha has been graved there?!

4. And when they ( Israelis ) do not differentiate between the national identity and the religious identity of Jewish people. And stress that every Jewish from any nationality in the world is Israeli. And he has the complete right of citizenship in Palestine at the expense of the original citizens from the Palestinian people.

5. And the biggest wrong when Israelis stress that AL-Aqsaa Mosque has been built on the bases of the Temple! I think this is unfounded allegation. Because the Holy Koran says: That ALLAH has took his Prophet Mohammad (Pbuh) into nocturnal journey ( Esraa ) from AL-Masjid AL-Haram (in Makkah ) to AL-Masjid AL-Aqsaa (in Jerusalem) 17/1 . On the other hand Prophet Mohammad ( Pbuh ) has ordered the Muslims to direct towards Jerusalem in their Prayer before he received instruction from ALLAH to change the direction in Prayer to the Holy Makkah..

We have to know all that had happened before coming of the Muslims to Jerusalem. That easily means it is an incredible story when any body says: That Muslims have built AL-Aqsaa Mosque on the bases of the Temple.

I think the above-mentioned thoughts and beliefs are the essential reasons of isolation and clashes of the Jewish people with other world peoples throughout the history.
