A ‪#‎Jewish‬ man and his girl friend gets jumped and beaten by some racist thugs and no body comes to their rescue except a ‪#‎Muslim‬. This is because ‪#‎Islam‬ calls us to stand against any form of injustice and to help those who need help.

The Quranic standards of justice transcend considerations of race, religion, color, and creed, as Muslims are commanded to be just to their friends and foes alike, and to be just at all levels, as the ‪#‎Quran‬ puts it:

“O you who believe! Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allah(God), even if it be against yourselves, your parents, and your relatives, or whether it is against the rich or the poor...” (Quran 4:135)

According to another Quranic passage:

“Let not the hatred of a people swerve you away from justice. Be just, for this is closest to righteousness…” (Quran 5:8)

With regards to relations with non-Muslims, the Quran further states:

“God does not forbid you from doing good and being just to those who have neither fought you over your faith nor evicted you from your homes...” (Quran 60:8)

Molotov cocktail thrown at Palestinian home

Ilan Baruch, former Ambassador of Israel to South Africa: Over the past two decades, Israel has dictated the terms of negotiations to both the Palestinians and the Americans: it must be done in bilateral channels, and aside from the Israelis and Palestinians, only the United States can take part in the process as a facilitator. This has resulted in distorted power dynamics in the negotiation room: the Palestinians have nothing to offer, while the Netanyahu government isn’t interested in the “two states for two peoples” solution based on 1967 borders. This situation must fundamentally change, and the upcoming elections provide a good opportunity to sharpen the message. Israeli-Palestinian relations do not solely belong to Israel. The world has a right and an obligation to intervene. The Americans must clarify that the lack of a breakthrough will lead to a complete deterioration in Israel’s international standing. Israel’s allies must force it to return to the table so that it can reconfigure its strategic interests. The Palestinians’ failure to garner a strong majority to support its resolution brings us to another reconfiguration. As Israel gears up for the elections, the United States and Europe must make clear the price Israeli will pay without a real peace process, as well as what it stands to gain from making peace.....

My reply:  "Sister, If you would prefer me to lie (I don't think you would) read no further.  Otherwise - #2.  Ignorance and attitudes like yours expressed above are why these atrocities (Darfur, black slavery, lynchings, South African apartheid, women without the vote, black incarceration in the US.... ) go on so long.  WHAT 'CONFERENCE TABLE' was going to stop the lynchings, the slavery, the genocide, a gang rape, the mafia, the NYPD from profiling, killing blacks, Latinos... ?????????

NOTHING, NO VIOLATION OF RIGHTS (WELL, SOMEONE ELSE'S RIGHTS) IS TOO MUCH FOR YOU. Hey, Bernie is not slaughtering 'your' chidren, so, well, we'll just turn a blind eye to that, ok?

"You'd say the same to me if we were back in 1940 and my issue was my family the Jews in Germany, or in 1985 and the issue my family the blacks in South Africa, etc, etc. (Darfur Genocide, Rwanda Genocide, Black Slaves, Southern Lynchings and Southern 'Democracy' of the pre-1960's, women not having the vote pre-1920, etc, etc, etc).

I'm guessing that unlike me you have not studied dozens of the scholarly works * on the subject of what's going on in Palestine? Either way my comments stand. Throughout the ages those like you, and like I was for so many decades, are why these horrors don't end.
