Never

00:00:07 --> 00:00:11

in 75 years has the Palestinian cause garnered

00:00:11 --> 00:00:13

so much support.

00:00:13 --> 00:00:15

Never in 75

00:00:15 --> 00:00:17

years has the entire globe,

00:00:18 --> 00:00:21

other than a few countries, come behind Palestine.

00:00:21 --> 00:00:22

South Africa,

00:00:23 --> 00:00:26

South Africa, the land of Nelson Mandela.

00:00:27 --> 00:00:27

South Africa

00:00:28 --> 00:00:31

that knows what apartheid is.

00:00:31 --> 00:00:32

South Africa

00:00:33 --> 00:00:37

that's lived through the only official apartheid before

00:00:37 --> 00:00:37

Israel,

00:00:38 --> 00:00:39

South Africa

00:00:39 --> 00:00:42

sued Israel, because it does not and cannot

00:00:43 --> 00:00:45

afford to see another apartheid regime.

00:00:50 --> 00:00:52

And not only, I don't know if you

00:00:52 --> 00:00:54

know this, but Nelson Mandela's grandson

00:00:55 --> 00:00:58

accepted Islam. He's a Muslim. He's named himself

00:00:58 --> 00:00:59

Mohammad, Nelson Mandela's grandson.

00:01:00 --> 00:01:02

And Nelson Mandela's grandson

00:01:03 --> 00:01:03

visited

00:01:04 --> 00:01:07

Palestine and Israel, and he lived through apartheid,

00:01:07 --> 00:01:09

and his grandson said,

00:01:09 --> 00:01:11

as somebody who's lived through apartheid,

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

I want to say that what I've seen

00:01:14 --> 00:01:15

in Palestine

00:01:15 --> 00:01:17

is worse than the apartheid

00:01:18 --> 00:01:18

I experienced

00:01:19 --> 00:01:22

in South Africa. This is coming from somebody

00:01:22 --> 00:01:23

who is the grandson

00:01:23 --> 00:01:24

of Nelson Mandela.

00:01:25 --> 00:01:25

SubhanAllah,

00:01:26 --> 00:01:29

the world really is changing. Ireland,

00:01:29 --> 00:01:31

and Ireland is another country

00:01:31 --> 00:01:33

that has lived through subjugation.

00:01:34 --> 00:01:36

It has lived through oppression.

00:01:37 --> 00:01:37

Ireland.

00:01:38 --> 00:01:39

Ireland

00:01:39 --> 00:01:41

has been constantly

00:01:41 --> 00:01:45

under state terrorism of England, and they know

00:01:45 --> 00:01:47

this for the last 100 of years. The

00:01:47 --> 00:01:49

way that the British treated them, the way

00:01:49 --> 00:01:51

that they've been treated, the number of people

00:01:51 --> 00:01:54

killed, the policies against them, the starvation that

00:01:54 --> 00:01:57

took place a 100 years ago, the Irish

00:01:57 --> 00:02:00

remember all of these things, and they remember

00:02:00 --> 00:02:02

that when they were going through their crises,

00:02:03 --> 00:02:05

when they were being mistreated, when they were

00:02:05 --> 00:02:06

being massacred,

00:02:06 --> 00:02:08

when innocents were killed constantly,

00:02:09 --> 00:02:10

they remember

00:02:10 --> 00:02:13

the world turned a blind eye towards them.

00:02:13 --> 00:02:16

The world always placated the superpower that was

00:02:16 --> 00:02:19

England. And so Ireland said, enough is enough.

00:02:19 --> 00:02:21

We will not allow this to happen again.

00:02:22 --> 00:02:24

And so Ireland stood up and said, we're

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26

going to recognize Palestine

00:02:26 --> 00:02:27

as a state.

00:02:31 --> 00:02:33

And Norway and Sweden and other countries and

00:02:33 --> 00:02:36

Spain, and they are all countries that are

00:02:36 --> 00:02:38

trying to be on the right side of

00:02:38 --> 00:02:40

history. They've learned from the past, and they

00:02:40 --> 00:02:42

don't want to make the mistakes of previous

00:02:42 --> 00:02:42

generations.

00:02:43 --> 00:02:45

They are all standing up in support of

00:02:45 --> 00:02:46

a free Palestine.

00:02:47 --> 00:02:48

Never before

00:02:48 --> 00:02:52

have we seen the tide change so much.

00:02:52 --> 00:02:54

So the future, brothers and sisters, wallahi, it

00:02:54 --> 00:02:58

is bright. The future really is bright, and

00:02:58 --> 00:03:02

victory is imminent. There's no question about that.
