Exclusive: Dangerous Phase of Terrorism, Trump’s Israeli Connections Proved (Updated)

                                                            By Sajjad Shaukat

Modern history of terrorism shows that it has gone through distinct phases, with shifting missions, messages, and means of mobilizing. But, owing to the US President Donald Trump’s Israeli connections, terrorism has entered a dangerous phase.

Everyone knows that Al-Qaeda and the Afghan Taliban were created by the American CIA to fight against the former Soviet Union in Afghanistan.

In this regard, former British Foreign secretary, Robin Cook stated, “Throughout the 1980s, he [Bin Laden] was armed by the CIA and funded by the Saudis to wage jihad against the Russian occupation of Afghanistan.”

The then US National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski met Al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden and said about the militants (Mujahideen), “We know of their deep belief in God, and we are confident their struggle will succeed…because, you are fighting against the infidel Russians.”

However, one of the alarming phases of terrorism started when, after fulfilling their interests, Washington left Afghanistan in particular and Pakistan in general to face the fallout of a prolonged conflict — terrorism and instability.

These Mujahideen who pulled the Russians out of Afghanistan, later become the Taliban, Al-Qaeda (new version) and the Muslim Brotherhood, Islamic State group (also known as ISIS, ISIL and Daesh). They got the label of terrorists.

After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, former US President Bush (41), in connivance with his Zionist-advisers, saw Islamic fundamentalism as a great threat. Since then, sometimes, Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda have routinely been used by the US and some Western countries as a scapegoat to malign Pakistan for ‘de-nuclearisation,’ as the latter is the only nuclear country in the Muslim World. Sometimes, the bogeyman of Al-Qaeda was raised to achieve their goals of external policy, and sometimes to pacify their public, including the opposition. In all cases, the secret underlying purpose was to safeguard the interests of the Zionists and Israel.

The new frightening phase of terrorism started after the September 11 tragedy inside the United States. In this regard, US President George W. Bush (43) and neo-conservatives crossed all the limits in protecting the political, economic and religious interests of the Jews and Israel at the cost of Muslims and patriot Americans.

Just after the 9/11 catastrophe, statements of Bush, high officials of his administration and Zionist-controlled media deliberately developed chauvinism and extremism among the Americans. There had been an organised campaign against the Muslims in the US and other western countries. Its main themes were that Islam and the Muslims were the true cause of terrorism.

President Bush used the phrase, “crusade against the evil-doers”, adding to the perception that the ongoing ‘different war’ against terrorism is actually a war against the Muslim countries. Inside the US, suddenly, every Muslim found himself divested of his nationality. Arrests, detentions and harassment of the Muslims by the CIA and the FBI in the US were other steps which still continue.

Brushing aside Israeli atrocities on the Palestinians, American unity was projected with such force as to allow no questioning of US policy.

Under the cover of the 9/11 catastrophe, a pre-planned strategy of the neo-conservatives headed towards a series of unexpected developments and events. Bush warned the world to choose sides by saying, “either you are with us or with terrorists.” It was due to employment of pressure-diplomacy on the weak states – Muslim countries like Pakistan, Indonesia, Libya etc. – that almost all the Arab states joined Bush’s anti-terrorism war. By manipulating public emotion about the 9/11 carnage, Bush also got the sympathies of almost all the major Western countries including NATO states, which also joined the fake global war on terror.

Meanwhile, making Osama and Al-Qaeda scapegoats, a number of fake video messages were telecast on various TV channels and websites by some Zionists to obtain Israel’s anti-Muslim goals. For example, during the November 2004 elections in the US, a fake video helped the incumbent president George W. Bush to gain a lead over John Kerry.

It is well-known that, in a tape released on December 27, 2001, the authenticity of which is not in question, Osama denied any involvement in the September 11 tragedy.

However, later, two video tapes appeared to validate his guilt in relation to 9/11, because the main aims of the Bush administration were to provoke American public outrage against the Muslims and to justify a global war on terror—the occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq to possess energy resources of Central Asia and Iraq, including proxy wars in other Middle Eastern countries and to get their support for a propaganda campaign against Pakistan and Iran.

Other actions of the Bush era – such as America’s state-sponsored terrorism in the volatile Islamic countries; persecution of Muslims through torture, detentions and arrests; CIA and FBI-operated facilities; and radicalization of the western Christians against the Muslims – provided a golden chance for India and Israel to accelerate the systematic genocide of the Palestinians and Kashmiris, and protected the real architects of the 9/11 tragedy.

While President Barack Obama stated during his first election-campaign that he would rectify the blunders committed by his predecessor in the name of war on terror, he continued them in their worst form to secure the illegitimate interests of Israel.

The Obama Administration continued with various techniques of ruthless terror and extrajudicial killings of innocent persons through illegitimate drone attacks, as in Iraq; and created more collapsed states such as Libya, Yemen and Syria, thus opening the door for Al-Qaeda and ISIS.

If the double game of President Bush franchised Al-Qaeda at the global level, President Obama’s dual policy franchised both Al-Qaeda and ISIS as part of the anti-Muslim campaign, and left no stone unturned in advancing the agenda of the Zionists, Israeli lobbies and the neoconservatives in the pretext of a phony global war on terror.

Secretly, President Obama authorized the CIA to create ISIS. His perennial, covert support of the Israeli atrocities against the Palestinians. He was silent about the smuggling of oil by ISIS to some European countries whose governments have also not taken action against those companies which were exporting oil from ISIS-controlled regions of Iraq. He was silent about the CIA-assisted Al-Qaeda (Al-Nusra Front), ISIS militants and rebel groups who were fighting to oust Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s government to achieve the aims of a Greater Israel. All of this comprised Obama’s double game.

Training and supply of arms by CIA and Israeli Mossad to these terrorist outfits and medical treatment of their militants in Israeli hospitals, including arrests of some CIA and Mossad agents in Syria and Iraq have also verified the Western connections. Yet, as part of the dual strategy, America and its Western partners have also been waging a war against ISIS.

But at the same time, CIA and Mossad openly support this terrorist group and its linked terror outfits, in accordance with the covert aims of Tel Aviv, not of America.

In this respect, the Russian TV channel, Russia Today (RT) reported on September 24, 2017  “The Russian Ministry of Defense has released aerial images which they say show US Army special forces’ equipment north of the town of Deir er-Zor, where ISIS militants are deployed. US Army special units provide free passage for the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) through the battle formations of Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) terrorists…Despite that the US strongholds being organized at them…

“This could mean that the US military staff feel absolutely safe in the area which is held by the terrorists…All of the images were taken from September 8 to 12. The photos show several Cougar infantry mobility vehicles and Hummer armored vehicles of the US Army Special Forces, according the Russian MoD data…In this case, securing IS assistance for an unopposed advance of US backed SDF forces could enable the SDF, widely seen as a US proxy, to seize strategically important (and oil rich) territory in Deir ez-Zor that otherwise would soon be retaken by rapidly advancing Syrian Army. If so this once again will raise questions as to what the true purpose of US forces-purportedly in Syria to fight IS-actually is. Earlier in September, Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Major General Igor Konashenkov accused the SDF of collusion with ISIS terrorists. SDF militants work to the same objectives as IS terrorists.”

According to Global Research Canada (Centre for Research on Globalization), “In other words, ISIS, al-Nusra, and so-called SDF forces are virtually the same thing – US-recruited, -armed, -funded and -directed cutthroat killers, waging naked aggression against Syria and its people…

“The Pentagon’s so-called Operation Inherent Resolve so far is silent on Russia’s damning evidence…Separately, Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Moualem accused Washington of working with its terrorist assets in Syria, including al-Nusra, to undermine Astana peace talks…Russia’s Defense Ministry…saying its intelligence revealed US forces together with al-Nusra terrorists tried halting the successful advance of government forces east of Deir Ezzor…Russian airpower smashed their offensive. Sergey Lavrov condemned the US-led coalition for refusing to combat al-Nusra, calling it absolutely unacceptable…According to Russia’s Defense Ministry, nearly 90% of Syrian territory held by ISIS is now liberated. Moscow will respond appropriately to any US efforts to impede the campaign to free Syria entirely from control by terrorists.”

Intel Agencies and False Flag Events

In the case of Asia and particularly South Asia, well-entrenched in Afghanistan and some Gulf states, intelligence agencies such as CIA, Indian RAW, Mossad and MI6 are assisting various terror outfits, including Al-Qaeda and particularly ISIL, in order to achieve the covert goals of the US-led countries against Pakistan, Syria, Iraq China, Russia, Iran, Turkey, Somalia, Yemen etc. and even Afghanistan, which are being destabilized by various forms of terrorism-related assaults, and which have continued in one way or the other.

In this context, a news item was published by all the leading dailies of Pakistan on October 8, 2017 regarding the statement of Afghanistan’s Former Afghan President Hamid Karzai who, while dismissing criticism of Russian ties with the Taliban and echoing Russian claims of American support to the ISIS terrorists, told Voice of America (VOC) that

“the United States has links with terrorist ‘Islamic State’, also known as Daesh…Daesh a tool of US…After it [the US] dropped the [mother of all] bomb on Afghanistan, it did not eliminate Daesh…the terrorist group has been supplied weapons by the United States forces…The US Army helicopters and army bases are being used to provide assistance to ISIS terrorists…I do not differentiate at all between Daesh and America…Reports of American assistance to the terrorists are coming from all over the country.” (It also includes Karzai’s revelations to VOC of April 20, 2017 and Newsweek’s report of the same day).

In an exclusive interview with Al Jazeera’s UpFront aired on November 10, 2017, Karzai again disclosed that the US government had allowed ISIL to flourish inside Afghanistan. He said, “In my view under the full presence, surveillance, military, political, intelligence, Daesh [ISIL] has emerged…And for two years the Afghan people came, cried loud about their suffering, of violations. Nothing was done…the US administration of President Donald Trump used ISIL as an excuse to drop a massive bomb on Afghanistan in April 2017…And the next day, Daesh takes the next district in Afghanistan…That proves to us that there is a hand in it and that hand can be no one else but them [the US] in Afghanistan.”

In September 2015, the Russian-led coalition of Iran, Iraq, the Syrian army-the National Defense Forces (NDF) and Lebanon-based Hezbollah started breaking the back of the ISIS terrorists, Al-Qaeda’s Al-Nusra Front and the rebels in Syria and Iraq. In response, Israel’s Mossad, which already had clandestine contact with ISIS, directed this outfit to plan the November 13 terror attacks in Paris in connivance with the French home-grown militants.

Similarly, when Russian-led forces began retaking many cities from the control of these insurgents, on the other side, agents of Mossad who were in collaboration with the CIA sympathizers and the ISIL militants arranged various sorts of terror attacks in Europe and the US.

Through all these false-flag terror operations, the US and Israel wanted to obtain their covert aims against Russia and the Muslims.

Mossad had also provided 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 had been created between America and its Western allies, especially Europe on a number of issues, including NATO. And, President Trump left no stone unturned in implementing anti-Muslim policies, while speaking openly against the Muslims and Syrian immigrants.

Trump had started exaggerating the threat of Islamophobia, while some incidents were not linked to ISIS, but were the result of self-radicalization by individual actors.

Regarding the shooting at the gay night club in Orlando (Florida) which killed at least 49 individuals on June 12, 2016, The Washington Post in an article, under the caption, “Trump’s reckless, dangerous Islamophobia helps the Islamic State”, wrote on June 13, 2016,

“Trump’s standards, his comments about the Orlando shooting have been reckless and self-serving. They are also dangerous for the country…the strongest remaining force that propels the Islamic State is the Islamophobia of Trump and his European counterparts, argue senior intelligence strategists for the U.S.-led coalition. Inflammatory, xenophobic statements about Muslims reinforce the jihadists’ claims that they are Muslim knights fighting against an intolerant West. Trump unwittingly gives them precisely the role they dream about.”

In this regard, Khaled A. Beydoun opined on the Aljazeera multimedia network on March 13, 2016,

“The world brand Trump is becoming synonymous with expansion of racism and incitement of Islamophobia…I think Islam hate us, said Donald Trump, 24 hours before the Republican presidential debate in Miami…is a call to his voting base, to further galvanise them around a disdain for Islam that not only heightens hateful fervour at his rallies, but incites violence on American blocks and pushes bigots to the ballot box…the statement is rooted in the very ignorance and hate which made him the darling of bigots and surged him up the polls…Islamophobia…the suspicion and fear of Islam and its 1.7 billion adherent-is political ideology for Trump.”

Nevertheless, the incident of shooting at the gay club in Orlando not only exposed that false flag operation, but also endorsed other false flag terror-attacks in the US and Europe. In this connection, in an interview with Brazilian TV on June 14, 2016, the ex-wife of the Orlando shooter Omar Mateen Sitora Yusufiy revealed that American FBI pressured her to keep quiet about his homosexuality.

While Mateen had been dubbed as an Islamic terrorist by the American politicians, senior officials and commentators following reports that he had pledged allegiance to the ISIS, the FBI wanted to downplay the personal and self-hating nature of the assault.

President Obama stated on June 12, 2016, “Federal authorities had made no definitive judgment on the killer’s motivation, and whether he was inspired by or directed by Islamic State or other terrorist groups.”

Obama clarified by explaining “Orlando shooting was the result of Mateen’s personal resentment in relation to the gay club.”

Similarly, the teenager Ali David Sonboly who killed 9 people in Munich had no connection with the ISIS. Police investigation revealed that he was “a mentally troubled person” and police also discovered extremist material, linked to the attack by Andres Behring Brevik, the white supremacist who murdered 77 persons in Norway in 2011.

Likewise, the shooting in the French city of Nice was also a false flag terror-act, as CIA-Mossad arranged it with the help of ISIS, which used homegrown terrorists of France.

At least eight people were killed on October 31, 2017 when the driver of a pickup truck hit people on a cycle path in Lower Manhattan, New York City near the World Trade Centre. The vehicle then hit a school bus, injuring two adults and two children on board.

According to the US media reports,

“American investigators found ISIS-related images and videos on Saipov’s cellphone…handwritten notes in Arabic near the truck that indicated allegiance to the Islamic State…But investigators had not uncovered evidence of any direct or enabling ties between Mr. Saipov and ISIS and were treating the episode as a case of an “inspired” attacker…Police records show he was arrested in Missouri last year over a traffic fine. Almost immediately, as investigators began to look into Mr. Saipov’s history, it became clear that he had been on the radar of federal authorities. Three officials said he had come to the federal authorities’ attention as a result of an unrelated investigation.”

However various conflicting reports show that, as with previous terror attacks in the US and Europe, the New York terror attack was likely a false flag operation conducted by Mossad in connivance with some CIA operatives and the ISIS terrorists. It might also be an individual act of Saipov, who had been inspired by the extremist agenda of ISIS.

Even then, responsibility goes to the agents of these intelligence agencies, who have already been radicalizing the Muslims and Christians by dividing them on religious lines, in order to fulfill the Zionist agenda of Israel. Contradictory and anti-Muslim statements of the pro-Israeli, Donald Trump, about the terror assaults have further verified collaboration of agencies.

Tweeting his immediate reaction, President Trump said,

“In NYC, looks like another attack by a very sick and deranged person. Law enforcement is following this closely. We must not allow ISIS to return, or enter, our country after defeating them in the Middle East and elsewhere. Enough! The United States will be immediately implementing much tougher Extreme Vetting Procedures. The safety of our citizens comes first!” He did not elaborate further.

Regarding the New York terror attack of November 2, 2017, President Trump again tweeted about immigration, calling for an end to “chain migration…lets people bring their whole family with them, who can be truly evil.”

President Trump first introduced the screening process during the election campaign on a pledge to indefinitely ban the Muslims from entering the United States—his campaign aides later tried to finesse as a broader policy aimed at implementing “extreme vetting” for immigrants from certain countries. As president, he introduced a ban on arrivals to the US from a number of mainly-Muslim countries.

While America’s Western partners, especially European countries had strongly condemned Trump’s travel ban on the Muslim countries as discriminatory and violations of human rights, in a statement, the American Civil Liberties Union – a civil rights group – said that the term “extreme vetting” was a “euphemism for discriminating against Muslims.”

It is noteworthy that 59 people were killed and more than 500 others injured on October 1, last year, when a gunman-an American national, Stephen Paddock opened fire on concertgoers from the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip in Nevada. Next day, through its Amaq propaganda agency, ISIL claimed responsibility for the incident, disclosing that, “the Las Vegas attacker is a soldier of the Islamic State in response to calls to target coalition countries—converted to Islam several months ago”—but provided no evidence to support the assertion.”

Senior US homeland security officials said that there was no evidence Paddock had links to international or domestic terror groups or ISIS.

On social media, many individuals had pointed out that if Paddock had been a Muslim, if he had shouted “Allahu akbar” before he opened fire on all those concertgoers in Las Vegas, the term “terrorist” would have been used almost immediately to describe him, as a link to Islamist terrorism would be assumed even without evidence.

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.”

India’s Anti-Muslim and Anti-Pakistan Agenda

It also deserves particular attention that since the fundamentalist party BJP led by the Indian Prime Minister Narindra Modi came to power in India, it has been implementing anti-Muslim and anti-Pakistan agenda. 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.

In wake of Modi’s aggressive diplomacy, India has continued shelling in Pakistani side of Kashmir which remains a nuclear flashpoint between both the neighbouring countries.

Emboldened by the President Trump, both Tel Aviv and New Delhi have been equating the ‘wars of liberation’ in Palestine and Kashmir with terrorism. Their main purpose is to divert the attention of the West from their own state terrorism, while employing delaying tactics in the solution of these issues.

Israel Criticizes the UN and Obama

It is worth-mentioning that Obama’s anti-Muslim policies were clearly exposed. Therefore, before the end of his tenure, President Obama wanted to rectify his blunders. In this context, on December 23, 2016, the US abstained and allowed a UN Security Council resolution condemning Israeli settlement construction in the occupied territories of the Palestinians to be adopted, defying extraordinary pressure from Israeli PM Netanyahu’s government, which was in alliance with the US President-elect Donald Trump.

In a statement, Netanyahu’s office accused the Obama administration of “colluding” with the UN and said it looked forward to working with Trump, as well as Israel-friendly members of Congress, “to negate the harmful effects of this absurd resolution.”

Netanyahu called the resolution “shameful” and said Israel would not abide by its terms and continue the construction of the settlements.

In this connection, in a series of tweets, posted on December 28, 2016, Donald Trump harshly criticized the Obama’s policies on the settlement issue and reiterated his support for Israel. He questioned the effectiveness of the UNO, saying, “it’s just a club for people to have a good time.”

US’ Jerusalem Embassy and Palestinian Massacre

Despite criticism, Trump Administration announced the opening of the US Embassy in Jerusalem on May 14, this year.

The same day witnessed a ceremony attended by Netanyahu and the administration of President Trump who buried the peace process and the two-state solution, killing any hope in the minds of the people of the Middle East as a whole with the possibility of peace in the region.

On the same day, Israeli security forces shot and killed at least 58 Palestinians and wounded more than 2700 during mass protests along the Gaza border.

Donald Trump tweeted, “A great day for Israel”, as he delivered on his promise to move the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

Trump who had already vowed to move the US Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, and had nominated an ambassador in David Friedman who was supportive of settlers by pledging that the Palestinians would no longer have a platform at the UN when he becomes president on January 20, had said, last year, “We cannot continue to let Israel be treated with such total disdain and disrespect. They used to have a great friend in the U.S…the beginning of the end was the horrible Iran deal, and now this (U.N.)…Stay strong Israel, January 20th is fast approaching.”

Besides, Trump’s strong backing of the NATO-like alliance by the Saudi Arabia—the Sunni-countries against Iran and accusing Tehran of promoting terrorism and motivating religious extremism among the Muslims and Christians, Jews and Hindus show his clear links with Tel Aviv.

Nonetheless, President Trump’s Israeli connections were undoubtedly proved on May 14, this year, when he 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.

In this regard, Trump had stated, last year, “Today we finally acknowledge the obvious: that Jerusalem is Israel’s capital…This is nothing more or less than recognition of reality. It is also the right thing to do. It’s something that has to be done.”

America’s Western allies who had disavowed Trump’s move, which reversed decades of US neutrality on the status of Jerusalem have again denounced Trump’s move.

Over the US Embassy move, perennial killings of the Palestinians, strong reaction was seen in the Islamic World in particular and the Western World in general.

The European Union’s foreign policy chief, Federica Mogherini, called on Israel to respect the principle of proportionality in the use of force and show restraint.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres issued a similar appeal.

President of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) Mahmoud Abbas, furious over the embassy ceremony, stated that he would not accept any peace deal proposed by the Trump administration. He also urged the international community to condemn the massacres carried out by Israeli troops in Gaza, and officials of the PLO said that the Palestinians would file a war crimes complaint against Israel in the International Criminal Court over settlement construction.

Egypt, a key Israeli ally, condemned the killings of Palestinian protesters, while the UN human rights chief, Zeid Ra’ad al-Hussein, decried the shocking killing of dozens.

Turkey recalled its ambassador to the United States, saying it “disregarded the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people” and would “not serve peace, security and stability in the region.” It also recalled its ambassador to Israel after a massacre of Palestinians on the Gaza border.

South Africa, a fervent supporter of the Palestinians, also recalled its ambassador for consultations.

Muslim leaders called on May 18, 2018 for an international force to be deployed to protect Palestinians after hundreds of protesters were shot dead by Israeli forces on the Gaza border.

At a special summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) held in Istanbul on May 18, this year, following the call of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan to address the Israeli-Palestinian crisis in Gaz. The OIC has condemned the US decision to move its embassy to Jerusalem as part of the 70th anniversary of the establishment of the Israeli state, and decried the deaths of more than 60 Palestinians. Earlier, Erdoğan stated that Israel will never be permitted to “steal” Jerusalem.

The OIC leaders also pledged to take appropriate political and economic measures against countries that followed the United States in moving their Israel embassies to contested Jerusalem from Tel Aviv. It said that the violence should be put on the agenda of the U.N. Security Council and General Assembly, and called on the United Nations to investigate the killings.

The summit was also attended by Jordan’s King Abdullah, a US close ally whose Hashemite dynasty is custodian of Muslim sites in Jerusalem. Abdullah stated: “The U.S. decision five months ago to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital had weakened the pillars of peace…and deepened the despair that leads to violence.”

Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani called on Muslim countries “to totally cut their relations with the Zionist regime [Israel] and also to revise their trade and economic ties with America”.

Trump’s Israeli connections could also be judged from the unrealistic statement of Nikki Haley, the US ambassador to the UNO, who told an emergency meeting of the Security Council that Israel had acted with restraint. She dismissed suggestions that the violence was related to the opening of the US Embassy in Jerusalem.

In condemnation of Trump’s unilateral step to move the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, besides protests and rallies which were held in East Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza, thousands of pro-Palestinian protesters held demonstrations in other Islamic countries such as Iran, Turkey, Pakistan etc. where the protesters burnt American and Israeli flags. Even in Jordan, protesters near the heavily-defended US Embassy in Amman chanted: “America is the head of the snake. No U.S. Embassy on Jordanian soil.”

Hamas leader Ismail Haniya have stated the US decision on recognising Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and transfer of the American Embassy to Jerusalem are a war declaration against Palestinians.

At present, savage crimes committed by the US-backed Israeli forces against the Palestinians continue unabated.

Undoubtedly, angry elements within the Islamic countries, especially the pro-Arab states may react against America and its interests in the form of terrorism and other violent actions. Unquestionably, the US president’s move on Jerusalem will create new risks for all of Washington’s allies in the Middle East, as the decision will offer extremist groups a valuable opportunity to capitalise on anti-US sentiment and direct such anger towards regimes which are close to the US and non-confrontational towards Israel.

Notably, Akayed Ullah, a 27-year-old Bangladeshi immigrant with a pipe bomb strapped to his body set off an explosion at one of New York’s busiest commuter hubs on December 11, 2017, leaving five people injured. According to the US media, the suspect told investigators that he detonated a crude bomb after he spotted a holiday display and did it in the name of ISIS to avenge the deaths of Muslims around the world, law enforcement officials said. The concerned American officials stated that there is no evidence that Ullah, an electrician, had any direct contact with the ISIS. But, he said “his anger over U.S. bombings in ISIS-controlled territory and recent Israeli actions in Gaza, fueled his desire to carry out a suicide bombing.”

Now, we can witness that terrorism-related attacks in the Middle East, South Asia, Africa, Europe, America and elsewhere in the world have rapidly been increasing.

Mossad Stokes Conflict around the World

Mossad is playing a key role in terror assaults, as Israel will prefer a nuclear war between Russia and the US-led West to avoid the two-state settlement of the Israeli-Palestinian issue. Atomic war could also erupt between Pakistan and India, as New Delhi also avoids solution of the Kashmir issue.

While fanatic leaders are in power in the US, India and Israel, their connivance may culminate into ‘clash of civilizations’, particularly between the Muslim and the Christians worlds.

We can conclude that terrorism has entered the dangerous phase and Trump’s Israeli connections have undoubtedly been proved.

It is the right hour that loyalist Americans, non-Zionist Jews and peace-loving citizens of every other religious community should play their positive role for global peace by stopping the division of the international community on religious and cultural lines.
