Open Letter to Butcher Sharon


Open Letter to Butcher Sharon
by Ali Askari


Dear Mr. Butcher Sharon,

Alhamdulillahi rabbi al alameen!  Praise be to Allah, Lord of all of the worlds!
And alhamdulillahi for our brave human bombs, who are willing to sacrifice their
own lives to expose the ugly underbelly of your lies.  Every human bomb is a
flame that ignites another fuse in another action of resistance.   Every mass
grave you dug will bear fruit.  Did you really think otherwise?

Your own military commentator,  Alex Fischman, rather lyrically hit the nail
on the head when he declared that: ''Operation Defensive Shield made suicide
bombers multiply like mushrooms after the rain.'

The only flaw in his statement is that our human bombs are not 'suicide bombers'.
They are our Resistance fighters.  Associated Press, covering the latest
resistance attack, helpfully explained that 'Zionism refers to the movement
to establish and maintain a Jewish state.'  It should have added 'at any costs
in the Palestinian homeland.'   The days of Zionism are numbered, Mr. Butcher
Sharon.  The webs of deceit you spin are falling apart.  Let's see how many
more of your people are willing to die for their racist, apartheid state.

I read your speech: 'Immediately upon receiving the news of the attack, the
president asked me to convey his sympathies to the people of Israel, the
bereaved families and the wounded who are lying in hospitals. The president
has asked me to express his dismay over the terrible massacre of innocent
people - children, women, and youth on a night out, whose only sin was being
Jewish, Israeli.'

Indeed, that is crime enough.   What right have they to take a 'night out' in
our homeland, when our people are still searching for their loved ones that
you massacred?   What right have they to claim 'innocence' when they support
the murdering thugs known as the IDF and indeed serve in it?

As for this President, is this the same President who ordered you to stop the
massacre of Palestinians and to withdraw at once from our cities, then allowed
it to continue day after day?   Is this the same President who sends you the
weapons of mass destruction that are used against our defenceless people?
Is this the same President who called you, the architect of the Sabra and
Shatila massacres and the massacre of Jenin a 'man of peace'?

Mr. Butcher Sharon, let me tell you something: the blood of your people is
on your hands.  Get out of our land or reap the consequences.  Our people
are accustomed to the ugly face of violent death, dealt out by you and your
kind for over half a century, and so we know that we can take whatever you
dish out!   Let us see what happens when your people are forced to face death
at close quarters and the threat of death, day after day!  Let's see how long
they will choose to play pool, eat pizza and go dancing in OUR land when the
price might be death at any moment!  Perhaps they, like rats, will have the
sense to leave a sinking ship and go back to THEIR native lands, and their
homes in Brooklyn...

We haven't any choice, Mr. Butcher: THIS IS OUR HOMELAND!   We will live
here and die here and we will continue to show you what steadfastness really
means.  In almost a hundred years, all of your massacres haven't been able
to get rid of us.   Let's see how many human bombs it will take before your
jeunesse dore decide that playing at housekeeping on stolen land isn't worth
the price!

Mr. Butcher Sharon, we will send you OUR peace, one human bomb at a time until
even you get the message.

You claim to be the 'chosen people' of God: why then are you Jews so terrified
of meeting the One who created you?  We are not afraid of Death.  This life is
only preparation for the life of the hereafter and we know that our cause is
just.   We are willing to die so that our children can live in freedom.  We
are willing to die so that our grandchildren can live in freedom.  Are you
beginning to see the picture?   As long as it takes, Mr. Butcher Sharon.

Fee amaanillah,
Ali Askari
