De-colonised Era - Part 2

Please note these de-colonial pieces are woven around current situation in Palestine because it is the iconoclast moment in the history. So if any state, organisation or people who do not stand by Palestinians are on the wrong side of the history and shall remain so forever.  This movement is reaching a tipping point. A point where cause becomes larger than the cause itself and begins to challenge the elements of mainstream political, social, economic and cultural norms. Take for example social media imprints since October last year; on pro Israeli side the SMN imprint share was around 500 million whereas on pro-Palestinian side it was close to 25 Billion. These were not all Palestinians or Muslims alone but people of the world in general who believed that there was something fundamentally wrong. In the context of SMNs and their impact, just a quick comment on Pakistan, “We are well protected by the firewall”. There is no better pun to describe this, ‘Denial (The Nile) is not a river in Egypt’. 

Back to Palestine in de-colonised era, Muslims have not been the gatekeepers of this movement. The system of imperial colonial control tightened the noose so hard through their ruling representatives in Muslim world that post 9/11 Muslims could talk about any thing like Wuddu, Taharah, Sufism, Divine love and so on. Or play their favourite sport of sectoral divide. For Palestine, Muslim discourse was limited to emotional rhetorical appeal and nothing substantial, structured or organised due to serious want of centrality of efforts. Post October 7, 2023, the situation got even worse. Let alone, Zionist sock puppet rulers, there aren't any significant protests for the fear of incarceration by despotic regimes in Muslim World whether monarchies, democracies, dictatorships, dictatorial democracies or theocracies. In their respective countries, these rulers are loyal jail superintendents of Imperial Colonial Jail the world has become. 

Where does Pakistan stand in all this? Right in the middle of the queue of obedient superintendents. No encampments. No sizeable protests. Just a customary product boycott of Israeli sponsor corporations. This too is insignificant in the face of massive trade and logistics support system provided by significant Muslim countries to Israel. See for example, most of the supplies to Israel are coming through UAE and passing through KSA & Jordan. Turkey’s unabated trade with Israel continues which is approximately 7 Billion USD. The oil & gas supplies of Israel continue from Azerbaijan. Palestinians are not only facing the brutalities of Zionists, they are up against power of west and Muslim countries e.g. Egyptian closure of Rafah border & not to mention the spat between Israel & Iran which was no more than a lovers’ tiff. 

So much more unveiling of de-colonial fraud in subsequent parts.
