Muslim countries


It is time the Muslim countries should really think whether to quit the UN, as it is no longer a neutral world body to deal with the problems and conflicts that are savaging this world every day. Rather, the UN is being increasingly used to chastise countries that fail to satisfy the US lust for world dominance and its illegal love for the state of Israel. The world does not belong to the US that it should submit to it. Using the UN, America destroyed Iraq by imposing sanctions and embargos and finally occupied the country. Because of UN sanctions millions of Iraqi children had died of starvation and malnutrition. America is now contriving to impose sanctions on Iran and Syria. This will be a shame and unforgivable sin if the Muslim countries allow America (through the UN) to impose sanctions upon any Muslim country in future.

Don't think (Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and other Muslim countries) that you are safe from US aggression. Yesterday Iraq, today Lebanon, tomorrow Iran and Syria, and day after tomorrow surely you will become the target of the US. Please forget about the divisions of Shiites and Sunnis. There were no Shiites and no Sunnis at the time of the Prophet Muhammad (Pbuh). These all happened after him. So, please keep aside all differences.

The Muslim countries cannot live again with honour and dignity until they quit the UN and shutdown the US embassies in their capitals.
