War-Stricken Yemenis Reaffirm Support for Liberation of Palestine

The aggressed people of Yemen astounded the whole world last Friday by holding massive rallies in support of the right of the oppressed people of Palestine to return to their usurped homeland, and in the process gave another firm display of their resolve to archenemy Saudi Arabia and its backers in the US and the West that the national government in Sana’a which is based on the popular will of the Muslim masses cannot be beaten into submission through over four years of war, bombing, and use of the most sophisticated weapons, as well as threats of famine.
The hundreds of thousands of the mostly fasting people that presented the spectacle of a roaring sea in the streets of Sana’a on the Farewell Friday of the blessed month of Ramadhan, marked as World Qods Day, denounced Donald Trump’s so-called ‘Deal’ of the Century – actually the Conspiracy of the Century – saying the Ummah will eventually liberate from Zionist occupation not just Islam’s first qibla Bayt al-Moqaddas, but the whole of Palestine.
Similar rallies were staged in the besieged port of Hodeidah where tens of thousands gathered after the Friday Prayer amidst the shelling by the Saudi-UAE coalition of the cowards.
Other towns and cities of war-stricken Yemen, such as Ibb, Taez, Sa’dah, etc, witnessed huge organized gatherings with a bonfire of the US and Israel flags, and the effigies of Trump and Netanyahu, in addition to the caricatures of the senile Saudi king, Salman, and his megalomaniac son, MBS (Mohamed bin Salman).
Whether Shi’as or Sunnis, whether the subdivisions of Zaydis or Shafe’is, whether members of the popular Ansarallah Movement or the tribes with differing political outlooks, the Yemenis were a picture of national unity and Islamic solidarity.
They also unanimously denounced the seditious summits the Saudis were holding in Mecca to violate the sanctity of that sacred city and the blessed month of Ramadhan, as well as to distract attention from the World Qods Day rallies, since neither Salman nor any of those Arab and supposedly Muslim rulers that attended the three anti-Iran and pro-US emergency meetings of the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council (PGCC), the Arab League, and the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), can muster any popular support for themselves on the streets, where public gatherings send shivers down their spines and are brutally suppressed.
May God exalt the soul of the Father of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Khomeini (RA), who in 1979 had designated the Last Friday of fasting Ramadhan (Jum’at-al-Weda) as World Qods Day to mobilize world Muslims and all conscientious people to the chronic question of Palestine which Global Arrogance and its clients in the West Asia-North Africa region were trying to bury alive.
A similar plot is underway against the aspirations of the Palestinian people, but if Egypt’s Anwar Sadaat was then the lone open pal of the Zionist regime (Israel, however, had covert friends in Hussein of Jordan and Hassan of Morocco), today several Arab heads of state are publicly dancing with the devils of Tel Aviv to the beat of war drums against Islamic Iran because of Tehran’s unflinching support for groups continuing the struggle for the liberation of Bayt al-Moqaddas.
The Conspiracy of the Century, drafted by Trump’s Jewish son-in-law Jared Kushner in close consultation with the notorious MBS, is thus doomed to fail, no matter what desperate steps the conspirators take, but end up making a mockery of themselves, in view of the multitudinous rallies held in over 950 towns and cities of the world Last Friday with Iran and its scores of millions of Muslims leading the way for the cherished goal of the liberation of Palestine.
This was the message of Imam Khomeini (RA) – the person who called for weeding out of the cancerous tumour called Israel – whose 30th passing away anniversary Iranians are all set to commemorate on Tuesday June 4
This was the message of his historic 15th of Khordad Uprising, whose 56th anniversary Iran would be marking on Wednesday, probably the Day of Eid al-Fitr, when the sermons of the prayer leaders in Tehran and all over the world, focus on the plight of the Palestinians and their right to return home to form the state of their own, stretching from the borders of Lebanon in the north to Egypt’s Sinai in the south, and from the banks of the River Jordan in the east to the shores of the Mediterranean Sea in the west.
