Int’l day of Quds, a globally-adhered cause

Italian university professor Claudio Moffa says the international day of Quds has already turned into a global cause, embraced by different pro-Palestinian groups worldwide.

The Teramo university professor was answering questions through an email interview with the Quds News Agency (Qudsna).

“Many people in the world support the Palestinian cause and are conscientious that the pretention of Zionist Entity to occupy and dominate Jerusalem (occupied Quds), through a violent process of judaization of the Holy City is a crime against not only Islamic peoples but also against humanity,” Moffa said.

The Italian personality called Zionism a racist current that wants to distinguish humans on the basis of genetic factors.

Asked about the momentum behind the international day of Quds, Moffa touched on the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and said the International Quds Day could become a way to push on the struggle of Peoples in the right direction, for international justice and peace.

Asked about the possible negative impact of the ISIL terror group’s emergence on the international pro-Palestinian campaign, the Italian figure said the ISIL massacres could trigger “a revival of the absurd and illegitimate accusations of Western countries against Hamas” (the Palestinian Islamic Resistance movement) to be a terrorist organization.”

“In fact, neither Hamas nor Hezbollah are terrorist groups: they are, according to the International Law, national liberation movements that fight against an occupation of their natural territory,” he added.

The Italian professor then touched on the ISIL attack on the Palestinian refugees Camp in Damascus and said the attack “goes in the sense of a weakening process of Palestinian cause.”

“The attack against Palestinians shows the true face of ISIS, controlled by Zionism to destabilize Islamic states and progressive forces,” he said, adding the ISIS strategy is the same as that of Israel that is a “strategy of chaos.”

Moffa said the ISIL scourge “menaces all independent states of Middle East,” adding “the destruction of historical sites of pre-Islamic period is not an Islamic praxis, but a Zionist praxis, as after the end of the two war in Iraq, with the archeological rests of Assyro-Babylonian period that were destroyed.”
