New Zealand
Mosques’ Attacks, Who are Dividing the World on Religious Lines By Sajjad
Shaukat (JR14SS34)
At least 49
people have been killed and more than 40 others wounded in the terror attacks
at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand on Friday (March 15, 2019) after a
gunman opened indiscriminate fire at Muslim worshippers.
A 28-year-old
Australian man, namely Brenton Tarrant was arrested by the police, who was
charged with mass murder, using an automatic weapon and began firing. On
Saturday (March 16, 2019), he appeared in court. Police also arrested two other
men and one woman in connection with the attack—two of whom remain in
custody.
Police said that
two IEDs (improvised explosive devices) were found in a car and neutralised by
the military.
New Zealand’s
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said: “The assault on the mosques appeared to be
a well-planned terrorist attack…This is, and will be, one of New Zealand’s
darkest days”.
Australian Prime
Minister Scott Morrison also confirmed that the suspect charged with murder was
an Australian citizen and described him as “an extremist, right-wing, violent
terrorist”.
Prime Minister
Jacinda Ardern said on Saturday (March 16, 2019) that attempts had been made
repeatedly to tighten New Zealand’s gun laws, but all had failed. She elaborated
that the suspect had “travelled around the world with sporadic periods of time
spent in New Zealand—New Zealand intelligence services had been stepping up
investigations into far-right extremists—The individual charged with murder had
not come to the attention of the intelligence community nor the police for
extremism.”
According to reports of the Western media, “Attack
apparently broadcast live on social media while, New Zealand’s authorities
declined to discuss the potential motives behind the attack, but, the social
media accounts in the name of Brenton Tarrant were used to post a lengthy
racist document in which the author identified the mosques which were later
attacked—an account linked to the gunman
posted a link to an 87-page racist manifesto which was filled with
anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim ideas and explanations for an attack. The text is
called “The Great Replacement”, a phrase that originated in France and has
become a rallying cry for European anti-immigration extremists. The suspect
said he had begun planning an attack after visiting Europe in 2017 and being
angered by events there.”
In this regard,
Al Jazeera pointed out: “In the manifesto, the shooter praised the US President Donald
Trump and Anders Brevik -the Norwegian white supremacist who murdered 77 people
in Norway in 2011. The 74-page dossier, hailed Trump as a symbol of renewed
white identity and common purpose…also claimed that he had brief contact with
Breivik and had received a blessing for his actions from the mass murderer’s
acquaintances…Trump, whose rhetoric is sometimes aligned with the far-right in
the US, condemned the horrible massacre in a post on Twitter…A spokesperson for
the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (ASIO) told Al Jazeera the
sources of politically motivated violence in Australia are diverse-encompassing
anyone who believes that violence is a justified means to further their
political interests, which can include extreme right-wing ideologies”.
However, the shootings
at two mosques in Christchurch cannot be seen in isolation. These terror
attacks are part of a deliberate conspiracy to divide the world on religious
lines. So, it needs in-depth analysis to know the real motives of the entities
which are in collusion to complete their hidden agenda at the cost of the
international community.
It is notable that since September 2015, when
Russian-led coalition of Iran, Iraq, the Syrian army-the National Defense
Forces (NDF) and Lebanon-based Hezbollah in support of Syrian President Bashar
al-Assad has been achieving successes in Syria and Iraq by retaking several
regions from the occupation of the CIA-Mossad led rebel groups and ISIS
militants after their failure to topple the Assad government—proving links of
Al-Qaeda’s Al-Nusra Front and ISIS with America and Israel, Israeli Mossad with
the cooperation of some CIA agents started terrorism-related attacks in the US
and Europe.
There is also an
interrelationship of the terror attacks in the US, Europe, Turkey, Saudi
Arabia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, Philippines, Iran etc., and elsewhere in
the world, which were false flag terror attacks, conducted by Mossad in
connivance with the agents of Indian secret agency RAW and those of the
vulnerable CIA operatives.
Through
all these false flag terror operations, the US, Israel and India wanted to
obtain their covert aims against Russia, China, Pakistan and the Muslims.
Mossad had also provided the US President Donald Trump with an opportunity to
manipulate various terror assaults of Europe and America to win the US
presidential election and to reunite America and Europe, as a rift was created
between America and its Western allies, especially Europe on a number of
issues, including NATO and trade. The fanatic President Trump had left
no stone unturned in implementing anti-Muslim policies, while speaking openly
against the Muslims and Syrian immigrants.
In this
connection, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s successful diplomacy surprised
the Israel-led America and some European countries who wanted to oust the Assad
regime to obtain the greater interests of Israel.
In response,
taking note of various developments and some other ones such as reluctance of
NATO countries to support America’s fake global war on terror, acceptance of Syrian refuges by the European
countries, especially Germany, criticism of the controversial Turkish-EU
refugee deal by a number of human rights groups, the EU rule to boycott goods
produced in Israeli settlements on the West Bank, Britain’s decision to leave
the European Union (EU), after the referendum (Brexit) on June 24, 2016,
prospects of Scotland and some other countries for separation from the EU, and
the divide between the elite class which run multinational companies with the
direct or indirect control of the Jews and the general masses who are suffering
from multiple problems in wake of differences on the refugee crisis, Syrian
war, Greece’s weak economy, violent protests against the labour laws in France
etc.—the chances of European Union’s disintegration and a rift among the NATO
countries, as noted in the recent past by the “Stop NATO protests in Europe were
quite opposite to the Israeli secret interests.
Hence, Israeli
Mossad which was in collaboration with the vulnerable CIA operatives organized
terror assaults in the US and Europe. As part of the double game, these terror
attacks were conducted by these secret agencies, particularly Mossad with the
assistance of the ISIS terrorists who used the home-grown terrorists of these
countries.
Owing to the
irresponsible approach of the Western leaders and their media, far right-wing
parties and “Stop Islam” movement in the West, especially in Europe has been
becoming popular by largely attracting their people.
Right-wing parties in a growing number of European countries have made
electoral gains. The right-wing parties range across a wide policy spectrum,
from populist and nationalist to far-right neofascist.
Other aims of
Tel Aviv ware to muster the support of America’s Western allies against Russia
in relation to the Syrian war, as US-led countries like France, UK also started
airstrikes in Syria and Iraq, under the cover of targeting ISIL.
To what extent
President Trump wants to obtain Israeli illegitimate goals at the cost of
Muslims and the patriot Americans could be judged from the terrorism-related
assaults which occurred in the Spanish city of Barcelona on August 17, 2017 and
in her town of Cambrils on August 18, 2017. After condemning the terror attacks
and offering US assistance to Spain, the US President Trump suggested “fighting
terrorism by executing Muslims with bullets dipped in pigs blood.”
When
American President Trump’s extremist policies were strongly criticized inside
America and around the world, including America’s Western allies, his advisers,
neoconservatives and Israeli-backed officials directed him to implement dual
strategy of the former President George W. Bush and Barrack Obama, with the aim
to keep the US and Western allies, particularly Europe united against Syria,
Russia, China, Pakistan etc., while covertly continuing anti-Muslim rhetoric so
as to safeguard the interests of Tel Aviv.
Nevertheless,
Israel succeeded in its sinister designs. Notably, backing out from his earlier
statements, American President Trump has changed his policy regarding trade war
in connection with China and Europe
Here, it is
mentionable that Machiavelli advises the rulers to have a lion-like image
outwardly, and act upon the traits of goat inwardly. He also suggests them
foreign adventures and the use of terror to obtain their goals. In his sense, a
good ruler should be a good opportunist and hypocrite. While echoing
Machiavelli, Morgenthau points out that sometimes, rulers act upon immoral
activities like deceit, fraud, falsehood and even murder to fulfill their
selfish aims.
President Trump
has begun acting upon the discarded theory of the past in the modern era. It
could be judged from his trip of Trump to the Middle East. Backing out from his
earlier statements—banning the Muslims from entering the United States, vetting
of the Muslims—blocking visas being issued to anyone from Syria, Iraq, Iran,
Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen—strict conditions for the citizens from Afghanistan, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, the
United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Lebanon, in Saudi Arabia, in his address at a regional summit in Riyadh, on May 22, 2017, President
Donald Trump called for “Muslim unity in the
fight against terrorism…a battle between good and evil…U.S. wants a coalition
of nations who share the aim of stamping out extremism…This
is a battle between barbaric criminals who seek to obliterate human life, and
decent people of all religions who seek to protect it,” as he explained.
Like Bush and
Obama, Trump described Islam as “a religion of peace” and did not use the
contentious phrase “radical Islamic terrorism,” as he frequently had in his
speeches. Instead, he called on the Muslim leaders to honestly confront “the
crisis of Islamist extremism and the Islamist terror groups.”
Setting aside
the Israeli-led US state terrorism and CIA-backed terror attacks in
Afghanistan, Pakistan, Syria, Yemen and other vulnerable Islamic countries,
Trump singled out Iran, accusing Tehran of contributing to instability in the
region. He supposedly said, “From Lebanon to Iraq to Yemen, Iran funds, arms
and trains terrorists, militias and other extremist groups that spread
destruction and chaos across the region.” Keeping Israeli covert agenda in his
mind, Trump also stated that all the Muslim nations should boycott Iran, and
also pledged to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict for peace of the
region.
Trump’s address was a mixture of calls for Israeli-Arab peace and
a defense of Israel from threats in the region,
including from the groups allied with the Palestinian cause.
President Trump
also encouraged NATO-like alliance of Saudi
Arabia, which includes the Sunni countries against Shia states, especially Iran
and Yemen. It was formed on the instructions of Washington. As after the US-led
invasion of the Afghanistan, Iraq, airstrikes on Libya and promotion of war in
Syria had been clearly exposed, therefore, America revived the old phony global
war on terror to secure the illegitimate interests of Tel Aviv, whose major aim
was to deceive the Muslims.
Otherwise,
it well-known that without bothering about criticism of
the US-led Western countries and the Islamic World, including some law-makers
and politicians at home, Trump Administration announced the opening of the US
Embassy in Jerusalem on May 14, last year. President Trump implemented his decision
of December 6, 2018 by officially recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of
Israel, and reversed nearly seven decades of American foreign policy and set in
motion a plan to move the United States Embassy from Tel Aviv to the fiercely
contested Holy City.
It is of
particular attention that it is owing to the encouragement of the President Trump
that the Israeli regime officially declared their status as “the Jewish State”
where only Jewish people have rights to self-determination.
Despite
the revival of the fake global war on terror, some developments disappointed
the Israelis. In this regard, Russia-Turkey alliance to fight the ISIS, victory
of the Russian-led alliance over the CIA-Mossad-led rebel groups and ISIS
terrorists, including Trump’s announcement to withdraw forces from Syria,
Senate’s resolution against Trump regarding withdrawal from Saudi war in Yemen,
Qatar-based direct talks between America and the Afghan Taliban with a view to
withdrawing the US-led NATO forces from Afghanistan which has, rapidly,
increased the cost of war, bringing about multiple internal crises, affecting
the ordinary Americans and Western citizens, particularly those of Europe might
be cited as example.
Meanwhile, US
intelligence agencies, especially FBI has continued the so-called investigation
that Russia and President Putin authorized the hacking of the November 8, 2016
US presidential election aimed to help Donald Trump to win it. Both Putin and
Trump have denied the charges. In this respect, differences between CIA and FBI
also frustrated Tel Aviv.
Besides, Tel
Aviv wants to intensify the new Cold War between the US-led West and Russia so
as to avoid the two-state solution of the Israeli-Palestinian dispute, as some
European countries have also been emphasizing on Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu to stop the expansion of West Bank settlements and restart a
negotiation process for the two-state solution of the Israeli-Palestinian issue
in wake of the debate between the Zionists and non-Zionist Jews in relation to
the two-state solution of the issue.
Earlier, on
January 15, 2016, France who is staunch supporter of the two-state solution of
the Israeli-Palestinian issue conducted a summit in Paris which was attended by
70 nations. In a statement, delegates at the summit also restated their
commitment to the two-state solution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and
emphasized on them to restart negotiations. Palestinians welcomed the
conference, but Israel called it “rigged”.
It is also of
particular attention that by pursuing the double standards of America in its
worst form, President Trump also intends to favour India, while opposing the
nuclear weapons of Pakistan. However, like Obama, Trump has brushed aside the
ground realities that Indian extremist Prime Minister Narendra Modi led by the ruling fundamentalist party BJP has been
implementing anti-Muslim and anti-Pakistan agenda, while encouraging Hindutva
(Hindu nationalism). Encouraged by the BJP, assaults on Muslims, Christians and
other minorities by the Hindu extremist parties might be cited as instance.
India which has strategic partnership with Israel has perennially been
manipulating the double game of the US-led West regarding world phenomena of
terrorism in connection with Pakistan and Afghanistan.
As part of the
double game, based in Afghanistan, operatives of CIA, RAW and Mossad which have well-established their collective
secret network there and are well-penetrated in the terrorist outfits like
ISIS, Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and their affiliated Taliban groups are
using their terrorists to destabilize Tibetan regions of China, Iranian
Sistan-Baluchistan and Pakistan by arranging the subversive activities. In this
context, China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is their special target.
Recent acts of terrorism in Afghanistan and Pakistan’s Balochistan province are
part of the same plan.
It is noteworthy
that, taking cognizance of the growing
threat of global terrorism which has been dividing the Western and Islamic
nations on cultural and religious lines since 9/11, American and European
governments had already started inter-faith dialogue especially between the
Christian and Muslim nations. The main aim of such a dialogue was to create
interfaith harmony among various religious communities. In the recent years, many
conferences were held in various countries in which scholars from Islamic
states also participated with a view to creating cultural understanding and
interfaith cooperation among major religious communities. But, all these measures proved fruitless due to a deliberate
anti-Muslim campaign, launched by the Indo-Israeli lobbies, resulting in
obstacles in global interfaith harmony. America and its allies continued to
kill many innocent civilians in Iraq, Afghanistan, Kashmir and Palestine
through heavy aerial bombardment and ground shelling in the name of war on
terror. The occupying forces have been using every possible technique of state
terrorism in these territories which have become the breeding grounds of a
prolonged interaction between freedom fighters and state terrorists, thwarting
global interfaith harmony.
It is because of these developments that a greater
resentment is being found among the Muslims who think that America in
connivance with the Indo-Israeli lobbies is sponsoring state terrorism,
directly or indirectly from Kashmir to Palestine.
In this context, on October 19, 2007, the special issue of
South Asia Multidisciplinary Academic Journal, under the caption-‘Working for
India or against Islam? Islamophobia in Indian American Lobbies’ had written,
“In the past few years, Indian American community has gained an unprecedented
visibility in the international arena and now constitutes influential ethnic
lobbies in Washington. Among other factors, Hindu aligned with Jewish pressure
groups in relation to the war against terrorism and to further the
India-Israel-US strategic partnership play a major role in exaggerating
Islamophobic overtones in the Indian American lobbies”.
Another regrettable point is that irresponsible attitude of
Indian, Israeli and some Western politicians has introduced dangerous
socio-religious dimension in their societies by equating the “war on terror”
with “war on Islam” and acts of Al Qaeda with all the Muslims. Their media have
also been contributing to heighten the currents of world politics on cultural
and religious lines with the negative projection of Islam.
In order to
obtain their sinister designs, Mossad, RAW and CIA operatives have also been
assisting ISIS, Al Qaeda and similar terror outfits which have accepted
responsibility in relation to various terrorism-related attacks on Christians
in Egypt and some African countries, including some Western countries.
While, like
other European countries, especially France, Mossad wanted to accelerate
persecution of Muslims, hate-crime against them and also to compel the Britain
to make discriminatory laws against them. So, besides other similar terror
attacks which targeted places of worship of the Muslims in various countries,
the terror assaults at two mosques of Christchurch are part of the same policy
of Israel, which has been implemented by Mossad.
As regard the
recent war-like situation between India and Pakistan, which started in the
aftermath of the false flag
Pulwama terror attack in the Indian Occupied Kashmir (IOK), tension
which involves the risk of nuclear war still exists, as the extremist
government of the BJP led by the Indian fundamentalist Prime Minister Modi has refused the mediatory role of any
country, while continuing war hysteria against Pakistan in wake of acceleration
of shelling across the Line of Control (LoC), which has resulted into many
casualties in the Pakistani side of Kashmir. On the other side, Pakistan’s
armed forces are on high alert to give a matching response to any Indian
prospective aggression or war. Earlier, Indian Air Force conducted pre-emptive
air strike near the town of Balakot, close to
the border with Pakistan’s sector of Kashmir on February 27, 2018, claiming
that Indian fighter
jets targeted the camp of Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and killed 350
militants—the group whom New Delhi blamed for the Pulwama attack. Next day, in
response, Pakistan Air Force launched
aerial strikes at six targets in the IOK and shot
down two Indian fighter jets and captured Indian pilot Wing Commander
Abhinandan Varthaman who was released as a gesture of peace and handed
over to the Indian authorities. It resulted into diplomatic victory of
Islamabad over India. Prime Minister Modi who
has directed the Indian security forces to accelerate atrocities in the IOK,
wants to obtain various nefarious designs, especially to suppress the
Kashmiris’ war of liberation and to win the general elections 2019 at the cost
of Pakistan. On the other side, Western media and their high officials are
insisting upon the settlement of the Kashmir issue.
Nonetheless,
like the fanatic President Trump, Israeli extremist Prime Minister Netanyahu
who also intends to win the forthcoming elections at the cost of Palestinians,
continues state terrorism on the occupied territories of the Palestinians. Both
Prime Minister Modi and Prime Minister Netanyahu have been confused due to the
above mentioned developments which do not favour Tel Aviv and New Delhi like
the past,
while, still some CIA agents, Indian RAW and particularly Mossad want to divide
the world on religious lines. Like Israel, India also wants to keep its control
on the Occupied Kashmir through state terrorism and to avoid its solution.
Although
overtly President Trump has softened his external policy regarding Muslims and
Islamic countries, yet covertly, he is acting upon the conspiracy of Mossad and
RAW, which is also, intentionally or intentionally, being followed by America’s
Western partners against the Muslims. If not checked in time by the
peace-loving Muslims, Christians, Hindus, Jews and Buddhists, these policies of the President Donald Trump who is
particularly completing the extremist agenda of Israel are likely to result
into more recruitment in the militant outfits, especially in the ISIS group.
Israel, who will never accept the two-state solution of the
Israeli-Palestinian dispute, will prefer to seek the final revenge by bringing
about a major war between the Muslim and the Christian worlds or to cause a
major war between Russia and the US-led some Western countries, which will
convert the entire world into holocaust.
We
may conclude that although agents of CIA, RAW and Mossad are in collaboration
which managed various terrorism-related assaults in the US and Europe and
elsewhere in the world, yet Mossad is, particularly, behind the terror attacks
at the two
mosques of Christchurch. In these terms, they have been radicalizing the
Western nationals and the people of the Islamic World by dividing them on
religious lines. When at present fanatic leaders are ruling over the US,
Israeli and India, their connivance may culminate into ‘clash of civilizations’,
especially between the Western Christians and the Muslim World.
