Never
in 75 years has the Palestinian cause garnered
so much support.
Never in 75
years has the entire globe,
other than a few countries, come behind Palestine.
South Africa,
South Africa, the land of Nelson Mandela.
South Africa
that knows what apartheid is.
South Africa
that's lived through the only official apartheid before
Israel,
South Africa
sued Israel, because it does not and cannot
afford to see another apartheid regime.
And not only, I don't know if you
know this, but Nelson Mandela's grandson
accepted Islam. He's a Muslim. He's named himself
Mohammad, Nelson Mandela's grandson.
And Nelson Mandela's grandson
visited
Palestine and Israel, and he lived through apartheid,
and his grandson said,
as somebody who's lived through apartheid,
I want to say that what I've seen
in Palestine
is worse than the apartheid
I experienced
in South Africa. This is coming from somebody
who is the grandson
of Nelson Mandela.
SubhanAllah,
the world really is changing. Ireland,
and Ireland is another country
that has lived through subjugation.
It has lived through oppression.
Ireland.
Ireland
has been constantly
under state terrorism of England, and they know
this for the last 100 of years. The
way that the British treated them, the way
that they've been treated, the number of people
killed, the policies against them, the starvation that
took place a 100 years ago, the Irish
remember all of these things, and they remember
that when they were going through their crises,
when they were being mistreated, when they were
being massacred,
when innocents were killed constantly,
they remember
the world turned a blind eye towards them.
The world always placated the superpower that was
England. And so Ireland said, enough is enough.
We will not allow this to happen again.
And so Ireland stood up and said, we're
going to recognize Palestine
as a state.
And Norway and Sweden and other countries and
Spain, and they are all countries that are
trying to be on the right side of
history. They've learned from the past, and they
don't want to make the mistakes of previous
generations.
They are all standing up in support of
a free Palestine.
Never before
have we seen the tide change so much.
So the future, brothers and sisters, wallahi, it
is bright. The future really is bright, and
victory is imminent. There's no question about that.
