World fails to protect human lives in Gaza, says Dr Jamil Khan

by
World
  • The Israeli military forces have been killing innocent children.
  • The world has always been misguided by West and its media.
  • Local media has failed to give true picture of affected Palestine.

KARACHI: The United Nations, European Union, Muslim countries, and the rest of the world have utterly failed to protect the valuable lives of thousands of people in Gaza.

The Israeli government and its military forces have been killing innocent babies, children, women, men, and elders for more than a month but the UN is unmoved and has not stopped the genocide in Gaza.

Just like the Western countries, their media tells lies throughout the day and tries to misguide the world. The President of the United States of America claimed that Israel is exercising its rights of self-defense but this is an attempt to wipe out Palestinian people from their homeland.

These views were expressed by the former Ambassador Dr Jameel Ahmed Khan while addressing a session on “Gaza War in Regional and Trans Regional Context” held at the M. A. Rangoonwala Auditorium of the Applied Economics Research Centre of the University of Karachi on Thursday.

He informed the audience that the world has always been misguided by the West and its media whenever any issue regarding Palestine comes to the surface. He mentioned the claim that Palestinian people sold their homes and lands to the Israelis when they came back to this territory some seven decades ago. He added that the fact is that the Israelis had massacred more than 50, 000 to occupy their lands and still killing and removing Palestinians from their lands.

Dr Jamil Khan said that the Arab countries have kept silent on such important issues because of their interest in petrol dollars. The current rulers of Islamic countries cannot go against the West.

He shared that in the meeting between the American and Chinese presidents held yesterday, only mutual interests were discussed, while issues like the Palestine-Israel war were ignored.

Dr Jamil Khan shared that 120 countries voted in favor of the resolution presented for the ceasefire in Gaza in the United Nations, and only 14 countries opposed the ceasefire resolution.

Meanwhile, the keynote speaker, Prof Dr Riaz Ahmed Shaikh said that Israel claims that it will take back control of Gaza, and asked to think about what will be the future of 2.3 million Palestinians after it went under the control of Israel.

He highlighted that as Muslims, it was crucial to align their actions with Quranic guidance and promote Islamic values to the world.

Darkness of
  • Not a single Nobel prize was ever won by Muslim scientist.
  • He was addressing the inaugural ceremony of 24th meeting.
  • Prof Khalid Iraqi welcomed the officials and affiliates of COMSATS.

KARACHI: Prof. Dr. Atta-ur-Rahman, ICCBS Patron-in-Chief and former Federal Minister for Science and Technology, has lamented that there is the darkness of superstition and ignorance in the Muslim World.

Not a single Nobel prize in science was ever won by any scientist in the Muslim countries in recognition for work done within the Islamic world, he said, adding that both Dr. Abdus Salsm and Zewail Ahmed won Nobel Prizes for researches carried out in the UK and USA respectively. Prof. Atta-ur-Rahman advised the higher officials of the COMSATS to focus on education, science, technology, innovation & commercialization in their policy formulation.

He was addressing the inaugural ceremony of the 24th Meeting of COMSATS Coordinating Council held in the International Center for Chemical and Biological Sciences (ICCBS), University of Karachi, on Wednesday. It is pertinent to mention here that the annual meeting of the COMSATS is being hosted by the ICCBS, University of Karachi this year.

Many dignitaries, including Prof. Dr. Muhammad Hassan, President the World Academy of Sciences, were present on the occasion.

Showing the grave concerns over the alarming decline in education, science and technology sectors in Muslim world, Prof. Atta-ur-Rahman said that, in contrast, 121 Nobel Prizes have been awarded to the affiliates of faculty members of University of Cambridge alone, and 34 Nobel Prizes have been won by faculty members of just one College, Trinity College, of Cambridge University, he said. We need to hang our heads in shame for corrupt and incompetent leadership in the Islamic World, he observed.

Prof. Khalid Iraqi welcomed the officials and affiliates of COMSATS in the varsity, and said that it was really a great honour for the University to host this important meeting in its campus.

He pointed out, “We need to recognize our heroes, and Nobel Laureate Prof. Dr. Abdus Salam was a real hero of Pakistan.”

Talking about climate change, he said that global phenomena of climate change had been ignored still in Pakistan, while it was a serious problem for western world even 20 years back. The natural disaster in Sindh and Blochistan was not only a natural disaster, it was also manmade, he maintained.

Prof. Iqbal Choudhary, in his speech, welcomed the participants in the COMSATS meeting, and pointed out that the pandemic had also exposed the gross failure of global cooperation, as countries were left on their own to struggle with a health crisis of unprecedented magnitude.
