What a difference between the leaders of yesterday and the rulers of today!
News:
Egypt's representative to the Security Council: We affirm our commitment to diplomacy to resolve crises in the region, stressing that the Middle East will not witness peace or stability except with a just and comprehensive solution that achieves an independent Palestinian state on the borders of June 4, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
Comment:
Statements we have become accustomed to that do not go beyond condemnation and denunciation, and many of those who drum and trumpet for the rulers have described them as painful slaps to the entity of the Jews! So where is the pain in the diplomacy of submission and submissiveness?! Where is the pain in saying that Qatar's security is a red line?! All that is happening is that the red lines have increased line upon lines, especially since condemnation and denunciation have not even gone beyond the language of threat and intimidation!
When we heard the (slaps) of the representatives of the Arab countries in the Security Council, especially the representatives of Egypt and Jordan, the neighbors of our people in Gaza who are being exterminated and starved, the vast difference between our time today, the time of client rulers and empty bluster, and the time of yesterday, the time of great leaders and glorious victories, came to our minds.
Have these delegates heard of the Battle of Ain Jalut, which is one of the most important battles that constituted a turning point in Islamic history, as it was able to protect what remained of the Islamic countries, and in which the Muslims, led by the great leader Qutuz, triumphed over the Tatar army led by Hulagu?
This great victory had a major role in uniting the Islamic countries under the rule of the Mamluks for more than 270 years, and also in reducing the danger of the Tatars after a series of major defeats for the Muslims that reached the fall of the Abbasid state in Iraq and the invasion of the Levant.
Know, you agents of the West, that the victory of the Muslims needed a courageous leader and wise leadership, and this is what you lack. When Qutuz shouted, "Oh Islam!" a cry that shook the earth under the feet of the Tatars, so they were broken and repelled, while you today shout, "Oh, the international order!" This system, which has lost its credibility and its flaws have become apparent, is the one that gave flimsy arguments and deceptive justifications for the rampage of the Jewish entity on our Islamic countries.
What a difference between the leaders of yesterday and the rulers of today!!
