Nobel Peace Prize to the “American Wars”

In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful

His Eminence, the Religious Authority Sayyed Muhammad Hussein Fadlullah, delivered the two Friday prayer sermons at the Imamain Al-Hassanain Mosque, Shawwal, 27th 1430 H. – October, 16th 2009. Several prominent religious scholars, dignitaries and thousands of believers attended the Jumu’a prayer.

The Second Sermon

American bias

In occupied Palestine, the American – Israeli preparations are going underway with the aim of executing the biggest maneuver in the history of both sides after the news kept on coming on the American Administration’s intention to disclose the nuclear secrets to the enemy, despite that the American President declares, in his speeches from time to time, that it is necessary to create a nuclear weapon-free world…

It has become clear that these maneuvers are simulating possible wars that the enemy would wage on Lebanon, or Gaza, or Syria; or as some of the enemy’s sources have pointed out that these maneuvers represent a double message of protecting the Zionist entity or threatening Iran. This reveals the true American stand on the region’s files in general and confirms that the American policy still encourages Israel, on the one hand, to wage more wars on the Arabs and Muslims, and destroy their countries and infrastructures. On the other hand, the American President is still sending his envoys to the region to repeat their claim of working for the sake of peace, and call on all the parties to resume negotiations, knowing that the course of these negotiations, as sponsored by America, has almost made the Palestinian negotiators lose all the cards they have, except the card of not recognizing Palestine as a national homeland to the Jewish occupiers; which is the ultimate Israeli goal.

The decisive American support to the enemy’s entity, at the political and security levels, reveals that the current American Administration has actually got engaged in the project of the Israeli war, rather than getting the enemy engaged in the so-called “American peace project”. It also confirms that the Administration’s insistence on not condemning the enemy for its previous crimes, just as is the case with the last report whose discussion was postponed due to the American pressures, facilitates the Zionist rightist government plans for new wars. Previous experiments have proven that every Israeli government has its war, especially that the enemy is relieved that the American Administration will prevent the incrimination of its soldiers and officers before the courts and international institutions for committing war crimes and crimes against humanity, which confirms once again the incompetence of the American Administration to play the role of the mediator in the region.

Nobel Peace Prize to the “American Wars”

Therefore, on the event of awarding the American President the Nobel Peace Prize, we wonder: does that mean that we are on our way to war, especially that Obama has offered nothing to the so-called peace but sweet words that were always followed by Israel’s intensified colonization campaigns and ongoing attempts to judaize Jerusalem, as well as arrests and assassinations, and the Israeli air raids on Gaza from time to time.

Therefore, everyone – especially the Palestinians – ought to realize that the spiteful arrogant policy led by the consecutive American administrations, perhaps the most dangerous of which is the current one, is responsible for destroying the Palestinians’ internal situations, and pushing the Palestinian cause into the holocaust of the international and regional game that is meant to put an end to what is left of the cause, in terms of the acceleration of the facts on the ground that are created by the Zionist enemy to deter any real solution that the Palestinians or the Arabs would seek for in the future.

In addition to all that, the American administration, as a result of its policies, is historically responsible for all the turbulences experienced in the region and the entire world. Moreover, when we examine the co-called “arc of crises” in the region, starting from Iraq to Afghanistan, to Sudan, Somalia, Yemen, and reaching Pakistan, we realize the scope of the mass crime committed against us as a nation and as peoples that are meant to remain hostages to the others’ wars on their own [the hostages] land, or prisoners for the fighting that is incited by international arrogance and prepared for on the regional level. The ultimate aim of these wars is protecting the enemy’s interests and securing it amidst a region that is always on the verge of exploding.

False promises to Lebanon

On another level, Lebanon was ordered by the outside to take a break for a while and to accept the choices of the regional understanding that has to comply to the international terms that take the enemy’s fears into consideration, whether in the field of security or otherwise. So, Lebanon ought to prepare for establishing internal understandings that are no more than temporary solutions that lead to managing the crisis with new methods that rehabilitate this position or the other and satisfy this leader or that official. Such a solution would suggest to this party or the other that it has accomplished its personal political gains to the detriment of the country’s and the homeland’s general gain. Moreover, the phase of caretaking would continue even after the birth of a new cabinet, because Lebanon has become practically an employee for others, protecting their game and creating balance for their movement. But, to create balance to the interest of its own people is merely a wish for which the Lebanese ought to strive hard to realize. How could a people be not worried about their destiny after wasting the opportunity of the elections and using it to serve the interests of the big players out there?! This is Lebanon that sees sweet dreams of peace and tranquility when it sleeps, yet it wakes up to its political, economic, and security pains that leave no room for relaxing and experiencing luxury.
