Haitham al-Haddad – This is Beyond a Conflict Reality of Israel’s Attack SheikhDr.Haitham Al Haddad

			I don't want
		

			Muslims to understand that this is a conflict
		

			between Palestinians
		

			and the occupation. This is far bigger than
		

			that. It is a manifestation
		

			of a clash of civilizations.
		

			Now clash,
		

			the clash between civilizations
		

			can be manifested in different ways. Maybe the
		

			United States
		

			realized
		

			that, oh no.
		

			If we continue
		

			doing that,
		

			Muslims and the whole Muslim world
		

			might see this as an attack against Islam.
		

			So
		

			maybe
		

			they started to retreat little bit
		

			because they have seen that the whole Muslim
		

			world is seeing it as like, why America
		

			and Britain and France and many even Holland,
		

			you know, Holland
		

			sold some,
		

			military equipment
		

			recently
		

			to Israel,
		

			and Germany, of course, and many other countries.
		

			Why why
		

			why they are doing this? Because they see
		

			it that it is,
		

			it is a critical
		

			conflict. It is a critical war.
		

			And if Israel were to lose or the
		

			occupation
		

			were to lose this battle or this war,
		

			then all of us we are going to
		

			lose. And there will be so many consequences
		

			behind that.
		

			So they put it like this. It is
		

			not us who put it like this. It
		

			is true that they are trying to say,
		

			no. Look. Yeah.
		

			We have some Palestinians who,
		

			or Arabs
		

			who have the Israeli nationality.
		

			We are not against all Muslims. We are
		

			just against the radicals. We are against the
		

			extremists. We are against the terrorists.
		

			But Muslims
		

			are mature enough
		

			to understand that, no, this is not against
		

			them. Maybe the Palestinians, they are in the
		

			front. It is
		

			against any
		

			anyone who doesn't want to be colonized.
