The Jamaat-e-Islami Chief, Syed Munawar Hasan has strongly reacted to the Vatican statement 'promotion of political Islam as a great threat', and said the Vatican had also joined the crusade already continue against Islam and Muslims. The JI chief said this showed that the entire talks of interfaith dialogue and relations and tolerance were a farce.
He said the world peace and the Middle East were threatened by the US-Israel collusion while Islam, the Islamic civilisation and the Muslims were the target of the biased Christian rulers, and now the Christian religious leaders too had joined them.
This should be an eye-opener for the Muslim rulers. The Quran burning plan of a priest and the Church was not simply a brainchild of a single mind as the whole Christ is a world and the Vatican was behind the move, he pointed out. The JI chief said that Islam had its own political system, its culture and civilisation. It also gave an economic system based on equity and service to the humanity.
He said the way the Western civilisation and the capitalistic system had divided the humanity had added to poverty and started an arms race. Islam provided political and economic solutions to the current human problems, he added. The JI chief said following the 9/11, former US President George W Bush had raised the slogan of crusades with the intention to grab the Muslim world's resources, and he had also described political Islam as a threat. He said the colonial powers had already divided the Muslims in different compartments.
He said that the Middle East had been declared a danger zone for the Christians only due to the Israel-Palestine conflict and the Iraq war. The Muslims were the victims in both cases and their lands had been occupied. Israel was a land grabber and was involved in the genocide of the Palestinians but the Vatican had never condemned Israeli policies and on the other hand, Israel fully enjoyed the support of biased Christian.
