In the Name of Allah, we invoke peace and blessings upon His Messenger.
{"And do not despair or be sad, as you are the most superior so long as you are believers."} [Al 'Imran; 139]
When the disbelievers had completed their attacks and mutilation of the corpses of the Companions of Uhud, Abu Sufyan scaled Mount Uhud looking for the Prophet, Abu Bakr, and 'Umar.
He called out to them and taunted them, but 'Umar did not give the response of a defeated, dismayed, weak, and submissive victim. Rather he replied: "O enemy of Allah, those whom you have just mentioned, I tell you that they are still alive. Allah has maintained what you hate!"
Abu Sufyan replied: "The mutilation of your dead is something I did not order. However, it did not displease me. May Hubal be sublime!"
At the behest of the Prophet, 'Umar replied: "Allah is more Sublime, Exalted, and Mightier!"
Abu Sufyan then shouted: "al-'Uzza is ours, and you have no 'Uzza!"
'Umar then made his famous statement: "Allah is our Helper, and you have no helper (الله مولانا و لا مولى لكم)!"
Frustrated, Abu Sufyan muttered: "Today is revenge for Badr, as war is conducted with alternating successes."
Unrelenting, 'Umar yelled back: "No, we are not the same. Our dead are in Paradise, while your dead are in Hell!"
This shows that no matter how demoralizing a loss may be for you, the Muslim - no matter how many mosques are bombed to rubble, how many children are made into orphans or are themselves burned to a crisp by white phosphorous bombs, how distressing it is that even basic food and medicine are held back from our brothers and sisters by those who have no regard for human life – no matter how cruel a hand you as a Muslim are dealt, you always keeps your head up, your boldness intact, and put aside your anxiety and dismay.
{"Those to whom the people said: "Verily, the people have gathered against you a great army. So, fear them.""} [Al 'Imran; 173] {"…But it only increased them in faith, and they said: "Allah is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs.""} [Al 'Imran; 173]
Similarly, it is upon us to examine ourselves as individuals and groups and see if we are reacting to the devastation and loss experienced in Gaza in the proper way and with the proper attitude. The bravery of the Prophet at Hamra' al-Asad, the post-defeat boldness of 'Umar while speaking down to Abu Sufyan, the cleverness of Khalid bin al-Walid in reversing the flanks in the face of an imminent loss at Mu'tah – these should all serve to strengthen us and teach us that despair, pain, anxiety, and victimization should not be in the dictionary of the Muslim. Rather, we should always maintain our honor and confidence following defeat, keep our heads raised high in the face of loss, and face those who continue to challenge us in a bold, smart, and effective way.
{"And do not despair or be sad, as you are the most superior so long as you are believers. If a disaster befalls you, be sure that a disaster has likewise befallen them. And such are the days, we rotate them between the people…"}

God-Willing, Muslims will have the upper hand
Please donate generously for our families in Gaza: http://www.humanappeal.org.au/
When it is said to the Jews don't make mischieve in the land, they say 'we are peace-makers only'.
And indeed, out of all the people on earth, you will find the Jews to be our greatest enermy.
Not to worry though, the Jews/Zionists have been cursed, and God's anger and veil is ever surrounding them.
In the early days, they were transformed into apes and pigs, in the later days, even the rocks and trees will testify against them.
Clearly they are the devil amongst mankind and pets amongst the devil-kind.
Muslims, regardless of who you are, never forgive the crimes of the zionists nor forget. Bring it up on the Day of Judgement, ask for your right in terms of causing you all the emotional etc pain, so much so that the zionists will be thrown into 'darkil asfal', the depths of hell.
May they rot in hell for eternity. Every soul shall taste death. But the souls of the Mujahedeen shall taste a pleasant death while the souls of the zionists shall taste a slow and painful death.
Muslims, you are guaranteed two things, either victory or martyrodom while the zionists are guaranteed either humiliation or hell.
Don't lose hope, the lasting success is ours inshala and God is on our side.

Letter to the PM for GAZA
We are writing this letter in a state of astonishment as we look at the appalling position Australia has taken on the Israeli massacre of Palestinian people. BBC News (12/1/09) has reported at least 700 innocent Palestinians dead with over 3000 critically injured as a result of this 12-day war! This is in addition to the millions more who are left traumatised, the loss in property and damage to infrastructure. To make matters worse, there does not appear to be an end in sight, "We have hit Hamas hard, but we have not yet reached all the goals that we have set for ourselves and the operation continues.'' Barak, Minister of Israel (The Australian, 6/1/09).
Israel has now fully invaded Gaza. Their ground troops are operating to the north, south and east of Palestine (The Australian, 6/1/09). Their atrocities are coming from air, land and sea, killing and destroying what remains of the already ruins of Palestine. Nothing is escaping this neo-Nazi rampage. Israel's war is so shocking that they are prohibiting any reporters from entering the country. They are not even allowing any humanitarian aid to reach Gaza! The three-hour ceasefire that was meant to allow humanitarian aid reach the 750,000 desperate Palestinians failed in just 15 minutes after Israeli forces fired at the residents in Gaza (CCN, 8/1/09). It is easy for Israel to drop hundreds of explosives on Gaza everyday but we can assure you, rebuilding that country will not be so easy nor will it be cheap. Israel claims this is a war on terror, but how can this war be justified if innocent children and the elderly are dying when they have committed no crime?
Australia has a good reputation for speaking out against injustice. Therefore we are urging the Australian government to condemn Israel's horrific massacre as it condemned other acts of terrorism in the past. We are urging the Australian government to insist on Israel to lift its 18-month long blockade off the 1.5 million Palestinians who have been left without basic human needs including water, electricity, food and medicine. We are urging the Australian government to send considerable amount of humanitarian aid to Gaza. Moreover we are demanding the Australian government to take serious measures in helping the oppressed and innocent people of Palestine by putting an end to this inhumane butchery. We believe the Australian government has the means to join the rest of the world in exerting pressure on Israel real enough that it is actually paid heed to by the Israeli government. How many more Palestinian civilians must be slaughtered before peace is restored? It is time to tell Israel, for the sake of humanity, that enough is enough.

Jews not Zionists
http://www.jewsnotzionists.org/
Contrary to common perception, Jewish anti-Zionism is not restricted exclusively to the well know Jewish anti-Zionist movements such as Satmar and Neturei Karta.
There are in fact many Jewish movements, groups and organizations whose ideology regarding Zionism and the so-called "State of Israel" is that of the unadulterated Torah position that any form of Zionism is heresy and that the existence of the so-called "State of Israel" is illegitimate.
No one has had to create any antagonism between our Torah and Zionism because such antagonism exists by virtue of the essence of Judaism itself, which can never tolerate the heresy of Zionism.
Zionism is wrong from the Torah viewpoint, not because many of its adherents are lax in practice or even anti-religious, but because its fundamental principle conflicts with the Torah.
Unfortunately, due to many undesirable factors, the view of Torah-true Jewry has been concealed from the general public.

Who is the coward?
Who will win?
This is really not difficult to figure out.
The side who will eventually win will be the one who stays in the land in the face of immense hardship that they might endure at the hands of the other.
Do the Palestinians meet this criteria? .. Yes, they have certainly done so for many years now.
Do the Israelis meet this criteria?.. Well, one only needs to look back at what they did and did not do during the 2nd World War.
When faced with persecution by the Nazis, did the Jews rise up to fight their oppressors?.. No, they ran away to Palestine from Europe.
The moral of this story is that when the going gets tough, the Jews pack their bags and leave.
