11 September Tribute to Innocent Victims of Terrorism
NEW YORK (AZZAM): As the World gears up to mark the first anniversary of
the 11 September attacks, we would like to pay tribute to the innocent victims
of terrorism: innocent men, women and children who have been brutally murdered
without any crime, without any television channel to mention their plight,
without any magazine to print their photos, without any newspaper to list
their biographies and without any cotton quilts to carry their name patches.
On this day, we remember the 121,237 Iraqi Muslim babies who have died
in these last twelve months (World Heath Organisation statistics) as a direct
result of American-imposed sanctions on Iraq, preventing critical
child-medicines from reaching Iraqi hospitals. Three times as many Iraqi babies
die every month as a result of these sanctions, than were killed in the 11
September 2001 attacks.
On this day, we remember the 31,202 Afghan
Muslim civilians who have been brutally murdered since October 2001, by American
warplanes indiscriminately bombing their villages, houses, mosques, hospitals
and wedding parties. Ten times as many innocent Afghans have been killed by
Americans than were killed in the 11 September 2001 attacks.
On this
day, we remember the 6084 Indian Muslims killed and burnt in cold-blooded
killing orgies organised by the Indian Government in Gujarat, during the last
twelve months.
On this day, we remember the 5078 Chechen Muslim
civilians who have been killed by Russian aerial bombing during the last twelve
months, having been given a green light by the American 'War on Terror'.
On this day, we remember the 3039 Palestinian Muslims who have been
murdered by Americans (via weapons held in the hands of Israeli soldiers) since
September 2001.
On this day, we remember the 2170 Uzbek Muslims who have
been taken away from their homes by the American-backed Karimov Government in
the middle of the night, never to be seen again.
On this day, we
remember the 1473 Chinese Muslims who have been executed in public after having
been forced to drink alcohol and the flesh of swine, in the East Turkestan
(Muslim) region of China.
On this day, we remember the 1399 Kashmiri
Muslims murdered and the 852 gang-rapes carried out by Hindu and Sikh soldiers
in Occupied Kashmir.
On this day, we remember the 1261 Indonesian
Muslims massacred by Christians in the Maluku region of Indonesia, having been
supplied with M-16 assault rifles, rocket launchers and funds by the
Netherlands.
On this day, we remember the 598 Muslim, Mujahid prisoners
being kept in small cages in Guantanamo Bay, after their beards were forcibly
shaved, their hands and feet were bound and their eyes and ears were covered, in
conditions where they are subject to malaria, heatstroke and other tropical
diseases.
On this day, we remember the deaths of the hearts of 1.2
billion Muslims Worldwide who are blind to the above, but awake to a few people
killed on 11 September 2001.
