[4:75] And what is wrong with you that you fight not in the Cause of Allah, and for those weak, ill-treated and oppressed among men, women, and children, whose cry is: "Our Lord! Rescue us from this town whose people are oppressors; and raise for us from You one who will protect, and raise for us from You one who will help.

We are approaching the international Quds day, the holy legacy of Imam Khomeini for Humanity. Why Quds day is a holy legacy for humanity? Because Quds Day will distinguish between the true human rights activists and false ones? It will tell us frankly who is going to abuse human rights and who is going to support! Quds day will question us that why the world does not see Palestine’s suffering? Quds day will justify this argument that sometimes foreigners have right to enter your home forcibly, assault your family and kidnap your children and you have to keep silent. Meantime, no court, nowhere in the world even dares to listen to your complaint. Quds day will explain to you that Humans living in European countries are more human than those who are living in Palestine! So the world will stand with them and feel sorrow for 12 deaths in terrorist attack in Paris and easily ignore innocent kids and people being killed by every day in Palestine. Quds day will amazingly tell you that you have freedom of speech to mock Godly men and prophets but you cannot write or say even one word against an oppressor regime whose soldiers bomb civilians for entertainment. Quds day will tell you how everybody has right to practice whatsoever religion he believe in but Muslims must be banned to go to Aqsa-mosque. Quds day will tell us how some Muslim countries may shake hands with the killers of other Muslims and bombard kids and women in Yemen yet they enjoy being part of the human rights committee of UN. Quds day will speak of sad story of UN’s leader turning blind eye to the ongoing crimes in Yemen in exchange for some money as they has been doing this over years in Palestine. Quds day will explain that why extreme Muslim groups shall open fire on other Muslims and bomb themselves in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan as well as what Israel regime does with Palestinian Muslim next to them? And why they never oppose Israeli regime nor do they try to bomb themselves among Israeli settlements as a revenge and not Muslim mosques. And finally, Quds day clearly says that you have to close your eyes to this realities and be a part of ignorant majority in the world or you will have no place in such a world being ruled by arrogant powers of the world. To acknowledge this holy legacy which shows the path for humanity, everyone should take part in this annual event, in hope that we will one day celebrate the world of truth, justice and peace.

Remember Quetta Pakistan back in 2010? Shias were rallying for Sunni Palestinians freedom and against the Zionists, and the Sunnis sent their Takfiri son to blow up and kill Shias where close to 100 killed! Well, history repeated itself. Now, in Nigeria! Now see if Iran who always press for this day do anything to seek justice for Shias of Nigeria, for Shia leader of Nigeria who lost almost his entire family... I wish they were martyred for a cause in Damascus, Karbala and Najaf... not for pure political stupity that benefits nothing to Shias except harms. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Press Tv Reports: -Twenty-five demonstrators, including the sons of the leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, have been gunned down during an anti-Israeli rally held to mark International Quds Day in an ancient city of the African country, Press TV has learned. -The deaths occurred on Friday during anti-Israel rally, as Nigerians took to the streets to denounce Tel Aviv’s deadly military assault on Gaza. -soldiers opened fire on protesters, killing 25 demonstrators and arresting 12 others. -Among those killed was 18-year-old Syed Mahmud Ibrahim Zakzaky, a son of Sheikh Ibrahim al-Zakzaky, the leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, which had called for the rally. He is a critic of political corruption and Boko Haram. -Reports say another son of the Muslim leader was injured and two others were arrested. Later, military forces reportedly killed all detainees, including the two sons of Sheikh Ibrahim al-Zakzaky, -al-Zakzaky lost three of his sons while another one was among those injured by government forces. -Meanwhile, government forces attacked a mosque in Nigeria on Saturday, killing three people. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Islamic Movement in Nigeria reports: - Death Toll reaches 30, injured: 40 Shaheed Sani Sufi , one of the killed brothers during an attack by Nigerian soldiers at Husainiyyah Baqiuyatullah Zaria today. He is one of the Staff of the Husainiyyah.

As we pass the middle mark of 2013 the death toll for Pakistani Shias number in the hundreds. But this account keeping erodes as it becomes clear that neither the military nor political parties are willing to take action to stop these crimes. The naive idea that courts see the dead as anything other than numerical figures is being abandoned. Granted that security has been increased in certain areas and people increasingly sympathize with victims. The overall sense of alienation is still present as suicide bombers and target killers are still lined up to kill the innocent. Although personally uninterested in the Quds rallies in Pakistan, I have recently succumbed to the idea of attending. However my reasoning has more to do with Pakistan than the Palestinian issue. Pictures of children marching with replica guns incite a fervid desire to participate in these rallies. The animosity shown towards the distant Israelis and Americans is becoming analogous to a third unmentioned entity. The Pakistani government, ISI and courts. Perhaps that was initially the point. Maybe these rallies should become fronts to show the intense anger and willingness of the Pakistani Shias. The fact that this passion can easily be shifted from the distant foreign Israelis to local government within a second should be alarming. And this alarm may lead to action by the government. I don’t remember the last time the Taliban marched with their kids with guns in their hands. The Shias should be considered a greater threat to the saftey of Pakistan, our condition will not improve until we are.
