One Minute to Midnight

By Jafar M Ramini
"Israel must be like a mad dog. Too dangerous to bother." General Moshe Dayan.
Isn't it time this rabid dog was muzzled?
The fast train that has been hurtling through our blighted land for the last hundred years is gathering momentum and reaching its final destination. Palestine. A Jewish state with no place for any Palestinian in it.

This tragic journey has continued unchecked and unhindered despite many UN resolutions over many years calling it illegal and against all known international law and conventions. Yet it thunders on.

We, the Palestinians, despite our lack of armies and resources, have been trying in vain to bring this destructive machine to a halt. We have paid, many times over, with our blood, our children’s lives and futures, our land, our freedoms, our homes, our orchards, our holy places, with everything we hold dear. There are millions of us, scattered all over the world, mostly in refugee camps, denied even the most basic of human rights and dignity. The Arab nation has abandoned us and the Muslim Ummah is too busy with their tribal rivalries and infighting to pay us any attention. Yes, every now and then, an Arab or a Muslim leader will stand up and give us lip service, but that is about it.
