Seminar Aqsa # 2.

Assalamualaikum wbt peopleeee :)
i pray that all of you are in the best state of eeman and health insyaAllah.

Nahh, here's the continuation of the first part of seminar Aqsa. [first part is here.]

so in the first post, i talked about the 100 years of solidarity with the Palestinian people,
and also the current affairs about perjanjian damai yang bebanyak semua tu kan?
insyaAllah now i'm gonna write about the other two.
here's the intro that i've written previously;


2. 100 years of the Zionist's agenda in Palestine.
this is about the history daripada 1914 until 2014, apa yang jadi dekat palestine. and yang sebenarnya first step yang initiate all this was actually during the first world war.

3. The 'special relationship' that US has with the Israelis.
For your info, they are the only country + pseudocountry (read: negarapalsu) yang ada this kind of relationship. negara lain mana ada special special ni kaaan. and have you ever wondered why US ni tahan sangat dengan Israel, as in kenapa nak pertahankan sangat Israel ni, padahal there were nothing good they received in return pun kan? Plus, tahu tak sebenarnya from the year 1967-2013, they've spent more than 200 billion USD untuk Israel ni. this is only in terms of money, tak masuk lagi in other forms yang banyak tu semua.
so cam pelik kan? apesal lahhh US ni 'baik sangat'?

haaaaa.
k dah. let's start shall we?

بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ


2. 100 years of the Zionist's agenda in Palestine.

so, untuk pengetahuan kita kita semua, sebenarnya Zionist ni dah plan nak wujudkan negara untuk bangsa diorang ever since 1585 lagi. hah lama kan? ni pun sebenarnya sebab the earliest book found was in the year 1585, but perhaps it has started many years before pun. just that we have no evidence je kan?

so in this book, it was written yang soon, akan tertubuhnya negara yahudi.

This is actually even before Germany was established. sebab kewujudan negara bangsa (yang pisah-pisahkan negara tu semua) only starts in the year of 1648. tapi diorang cakap about nak wujudkan negara sendiri ni almost 100 years before that. kira memang diorang dah plan lama dah.

so, many things happened since then. diorang even ada perhimpunan 'ulama2' theologians in 1746, discussing about building a country for the Jews ni. kira macam semua 'ulama2' diorang berkumpul, untuk bincang 'caaneee lah nak wujudkan negara kita nii'. *dialogciptaansendiriharapmaklum*

tapi, it was only during the first world war itself yang diorang nampak chance untuk diorang dapat Palestine ni.

hahhh!
here comes the complicated part. history! :3
insyaAllah i'll try to make it as simple as possible ye :)


k so masa first world war, ada two blocks;
- allied forces (kuasa berikat) consisting of Britain-France-Russia.
- central power: German, Prussian , Austrian-Hungarian, and Ottoman Empire.

So basically, Ottoman empire ni cam jadi rakan sekutu German.
So, once diorang jadi rakan sekutu German ni, the allied forces declared war on them.

Nov 1st 1914- Russia declares war to the Ottoman empire.
Nov 5th – Britain & France declares war.
Nov 11th – Sultan Muhammad V declares Jihad.
Nov 14th – Khairy Affendi (sort of like kadi besar kat Turkey masa tu) issues Jihad akbar Fardhu Ain to the whole of the muslim world.

So masa ni, memang the whole muslim world sahut seruan jihad. And it then arrives in Malaysia, sebab masa tu ada ramai student Malaysia yang study dekat middle east. so dorang hantar surat nak bagitau pasal fatwa ni tau. So fatwa ni macam mewajibkan semua umat Islam masa tu untuk berjihad. And ni jugak reason Tok Janggut and rakyat memberontak sebenarnya. They were actually against the British, and bukan kenaikan harga cukai yang few cents as written in our history textbook tu.

And so, masa tu British ada kenalkan ‘akta media massa’ or something yang bunyiknya begini (this one masa sejarah dulu ada belajar) untuk limitkan apa yang rakyat boleh tulis dalam surat khabar waktu tu. The reason why was actually British cam ugut orang kat Tanah Melayu time tu, cakap sesiapa yang ada copy of the Fatwa on Jihad ni, dia akan dihukum bunuh. sebab diorang taknak fatwa ni tersebar.

And this was actually the reason why they killed Tok Janggut, lepastu gantung tangan and kaki terbalik and diorang arak keliling kampung. British nak takutkan rakyat masa tu, so that diorang tak sahut seruan Jihad ni. And thus, diorang taknak rakyat sokong Khilafah Uthmaniyah masa tu.

haaaa amazing kan? macam tak sangka yang sebenarnya banyak je benda dalam textbook kita dulu tu yang tak berapa nak benar. huuu


K before kita proceed.
There are few names and terms that you guys need to know.

Chaim Weizman - A chemistry professor, a Zionist.
George Llyod - menteri pertahanan Britain masa tu.
Mark Sykes - member of Zionist Federation of Britain.
Lawrence of Arabia - he is a british citizen, but stayed in middle east for many years.
Faisal bin Hussein of Iraq - leader of Arabic continents masa tu. dia anak Sharif of Mecca.

Balfour declaration - this is in year of 1917. so dalam declaration ni, british made it public that they favored a Jewish homeland in Palestine.


okay? jom sambung!


so masa ni, Germany was of a great power, and diorang ada sort of like chemical weapons utk guna time war.
So British was in a weak state la kiranya kan.

Then came Chaim Weizman from the Zionist’s part. kan dia chemistry professor kan? So dia invent Cordite [bahan letupan], untuk bantu British masa tu. Dia deal dengan George Llyod (menteri pertahanan Britain) and in return, he asked George Llyod  ‘a home for for my people’.

They then formed the British-Zionist Federation to plan the end of the war’s outcome.
yang Chaim Weizman ni lah presidennye.

There were few other names associated too:
Arthur Balfour.
Winston Churchill.
Lord Baron Rothschild.
Herbert Samuel.

kalau nak tau in details diorang ni siapa and apa peranan diorang, please ask Shaykh Goo Goo :3

but to sum up, diorang ni consist of bankers, Foreign Minister, Home secretary and professors, and they were planing on how to take over Palestine and build their ‘home’ there. Diorang jugak yang draft Balfour declaration.

One of the name mentioned kat atas tadi was Mark Sykes kan. So, Mark ni yang actually responsible to persuade Faisal bin Hussein of Iraq. Dia bagi statement kat Faisal ni cakap on ‘view of Jews:…this race, despiced and weak…’ kira cam nak mintak sympathy from him lah. macam nak cakap yang 'kami ni kaum yang lemah, kasihanilah kami...'


k. tapi, yang sebenarnya responsible untuk mula2 jumpa Faisal ni was Lawrence of Arabia. Kan dia stay lama kat middle east. So bila dia balik Britain masa world war 1 (WW1) , he was assigned to serve in British army in Cairo. So dia kena carik orang Arab yang dia cam rasa boleh join British, yang macam 'open minded' sikit. So they found this Faisal bin Hussein who was quite young masa tu, and also easy to be persuaded.

In the end, he (Faisal) made this statement:

"We Arabs... look with the deepest sympathy on the Zionist movement. Our deputation here in Paris is fully acquainted with the proposals submitted yesterday by the Zionist Organisation to the Peace Conference, and we regard them as moderate and proper. We will do our best, in so far as we are concerned, to help them through; we will wish the Jews a most hearty welcome home... I look forward, and my people with me look forward, to a future in which we will help you and you will help us, so that the countries in which we are mutually interested may once again take their places in the community of the civilised peoples of the world."

hah.
so nampak tak yang dia sendiri yang opens the door untuk the Jews ni sebenarnya.


*eh tapi jap jap. mana US?*

k sebenarnya, US join first world war ni masa 1917 (sama tahun dengan Balfour Declaration tu). pastu US bg mandate dekat diri sendiri 'to take care of Palestine'. and dari situlah diorang try to take Palestine from us.
tak malu gila US bagi mandate kat diri sendiri kan -.-


so basically, this is roughly how WW1 was actually related to us, the Muslims. and since WW1 started on 1914, tu yang dia cakap 100 years of Zionist's agenda in Palestine. 1914-2014.


k breathe in.
breathe out.
minum air dulu.
k boleh sambung :)


next up,
3. The 'special relationship' that US has with the Israelis.

hah yang ni cam best. sebab macam suspicious kenapa US boleh rapat dengan Israel kan?
and despite the many policies that have changed in US, since dah tukar president etc, tapi policy diorang towards Israel tak pernah berubah. it was since 1948 tak silap.

so kalau korang tertanya tanya kenapa, here are the factors:

# 1 : Geo-politics.
sebab Israel ni kan kat middle east, so it serves as a proxy untuk US ni. kira macam wakil US kat tengah tengah negara arab tu lah.

# 2 : Oil-reserve.
kat negara negara arab ni kan banyak oil and gas reserves. so it is more on economic interest lah ni. kayaaaaa!

# 3 : Soft power factors.
yang ni, dia cakap pasal 'Jewish lobby'. kat US, ada this pro-Israel lobby group. basically, diorang ni provide realistic reasons for US to think that it's 'strategic alliance' with Israel ni akan kuatkan US punya security and national interest.

# 4 : Security
disebabkan US ni jauh, so dia believe dengan adanya 'geng' dia kat middle east ni, dia boleh control the power here. sebab US believes, that Israel is the only country that shared America's democratic value. yang 'sejiwa' la gitu. so senang untuk US promote so-called peace dekat middle east ni, dengan adanya Israel.



haaa k.
tapi, these are the usual factors discussed.
there is one more factor that is not usually discussed or told to the public.
and that factor is....

tadaaaa!
k -.-

that factor is actually, religion.

hah so kat US ni sebenarnya, ada satu cabang Christian named Protestant. pernah dengar tak? haaa. so in their belief, it was written in the old testament, 'To stand against the Jews is to stand against God.'

kiranya, bagi diorang issue mempertahankan negara Israel ni is actually religious issue. so disebabkan diorang 'beriman', diorang kena fight for it. and they also believe that Jesus will only come down bila Israel dah ada negara sendiri.

hah. so sekarang nampak tak sebenarnya ada hidden reason kenapa US nak sangat pertahankan Israel? yang US bukan sekadar pertahankan Israel sebab physical needs je.

hmmm.


okaaaay.
sooo i think this will be the end of the post about the Seminar Aqsa insyaAllah.
hopefull you're benefited biidznillah :)
please note that this is all based on my limited knowledge. mohon betulkan jika ada salah dan silap.
wallahua'lam.


may Allah bless you :)
