Dear Muslim I am a South African non-Muslim. I have alot of Muslim friends and often we often chat about religion and politics. Islam is an amazing religion and practising Muslims are good to be with. However whenever the topic of politics comes up, all Muslims whether practising or non-practising feel the pain of Palestine. It is like a common wound that pains all of them.What amazes me is that Israel is surrounded by a sea of Muslims. There are Muslim countries to the North, South and East of Israel. Muslims make up one-fifth of the world’s population. From the figures it would seem that Muslims should have easily dealt with the Israeli problem. But they still remain powerless.I was puzzled. How is it that a tiny country the size of a South African game reserve can take on the entire Muslim world combined?Israel with a population of a mere 7 million people challenges and overcomes a population of 2 billion Muslims daily. Mathematically it was impossible. There are 1993000000 more Muslims than Israelis. If all the Muslims were to just walk over Israel, Israelis would be trampled to extinction. But how is it that such a mathematical paradox happens? I puzzled with this question and after observing Muslims lives I realised that the Muslim has the power to bring the West to its knees. This is why. 1- When most Muslims wake up, almost all of them brush their teeth with COLGATE. 2- They then go to the toilet and use BABY SOFTtoilet roll. 3- They then go into the shower and use PANTENE shampoo. 4PAMPERS. 5- When they go shopping for groceries they go to PICK n PAY. 6- When they go to the pharmacy they go to DISCHEM. 7- When they choose a medical aid they choose DISCOVERY. 8- When they break their fasts their tables are always decorated with a bottle of COCA-COLA 9- Before they go to sleep they floss with ORAL B Have they ever paused to think that the above 9 are all American/Jewish owned companies or products that openly support Israel? From the time Muslims wake up every morning till they go to bed at night they are slaves of the American and Jewish companies and products. How do they expect to be liberated when they cant even liberate themselves? For a people who can sacrifice food and drink (which are needs) for 30 days you have tremendous self-restraint. Surely it should be easy to sacrifice your desires of western goods and services. Stop contributing to your own destruction. If you cant stop patronising them, then stop this hippocritical whining of Western double standards when you yourselves practise double standards! Further it would bode Muslims better to organize educational sessions for their mothers, sisters and daughters who control the purse then to organise foolish ineffective marches and flag burning ceremonies. From the Muslims I know they have never heard of the local Imams or school teacher educating them which brands to boycott, neither do they provide alternative local brands to support. Its about time this sleeping giant awakens.
