“My conscience will never allow me to accept Israel" : PM Imran Khan

[Smbhayi]

Do you have any braincells left? Supporting trade ties with an occupying force that is committing genocide against Palestinians has everything to do with being anti-Islamic.

Is this means we shouldn't do hajj and umrah bcs Saudi too accepting Israel?

All issues are important. But, Palestine is bigger priority due to importance of Jerusalem.

I have always called out these countries (China, India, Israel, Myanmar etc.) equally but Jerusalem obviously is the most precious.

What makes the people of Palestine more important than the people of other countries?

All people are important but Jerusalem is the third holiest site in Islam. It is why it gets much more focus.

What happened to this focus during Bangladesh war or when partnering with USa post Iraq and during Afghanistan. Let me guess your answer, there aren’t holy sites in Afghanistan or Bangladesh or even if they are they are probably not in the top 5-10. Was that the right answer?

That holy site is a building. So you’re saying the building is more important that the people dying in China or Myanmar.

I thought Muslims weren’t supposed to worship objects. What’s going on here? A building being considered more important than humanity

It is not just that building. Entire land of Sham is blessed. You can read about it here: https://noblesofsham.wordpress.com/verses-and-hadiths-on-al-sham/.

You are taking me out of context.

Mecca, Medina, and Jerusalem are important sites in Islam and naturally Muslims want to see these sites free from occupied forces.

Regarding Uighur, I have always condemned China's action.

Anyway. We are going in circles.

Mecca and Medina aren't not the property of the modern day state of Saudi Arabia, it's sacred land

Yeah but his conscience allowed him to suggest that Taliban should open offices in Pakistan. I've never seen a bigger hypocrite than this guy. Always appeasing right extremists and taking Pakistan in the same direction as Zia Ul Haq. Pathetic.

Two top officials in Pakistan have categorically denied media reports that Pakistani officials had visited Israel or held meetings with officials of the state.

The Israel Hayom and other Israeli media outlets reported that officials from Pakistan visited Jewish state two weeks ago with a delegation of senior officials to discuss the potential normalisation of relations.

Pakistan currently does not recognise the state of Israel over its thwarting of Palestinians’ aspirations for a state of their own.

Palestinians want East Jerusalem as the capital of their future free state, a demand Pakistan has supported for decades.

Special advisor on religious harmony and the Middle East, Maulana Tahir Ashrafi told Arab News, “It is an absolutely wrong news.

He termed it an attempt to create chaos, instability in Pakistan and malign Islamabad in the Muslim world.

The special aid on Middle East said that Pakistan’s stance regarding establishing relations with Israel was very clear, adding that Islamabad would not recognise Israel until a just solution to the Palestine conflict was found.

“It is the clear stance of Prime Minister Imran Khan and his cabinet. The state of Pakistan including our people, armed forces, institutions and government, are on the same page regarding this issue,” Ashrafi added.

Meanwhile, Sayed Zulfiqar Bukhari termed reports ‘ridiculous and pathetic attempt to malign Pakistan.

Special assistant to the prime minister for overseas Pakistanis, said, “It is ridiculous and a pathetic attempt to malign Pakistan.”

Bukhari added that those spreading these “lies and fairy tales [were] putting lives in danger.”

The Zionists in Israel are claiming that Pakistanis are in Tel Aviv and are discussing future ties. Pakistan has rubbished the claims.

But zionists and hindutvas on twitter are dancing over the news.

MULTAN: Pakistan has appraised the Emirati leadership of its position on Israel and stressed that Islamabad will not recognise Tel Aviv until the Palestine issue is resolved.

Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi denied any pressure on Pakistan to recognise Israel in a media talk in Multan Monday.

He said the Emirati leadership appraised him of their position during his recent official visit to the United Arab Emirates. “I briefed them on our Israel-Palestine policy,” he said, adding that Pakistan will not establish ties with Israel until a lasting solution for the conflict is agreed on.


Qureshi said Islamabad will make decisions in Pakistan's interests.

On the matter of visas, the foreign minister insisted it is a temporary issue which will be resolved soon.

He emphasised that the Emirati leadership believes there can be no substitute for Pakistan. "Neither does the UAE nor the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia perceive New Delhi as a replacement for Islamabad," he said.

The foreign minister said he discussed at length the Kashmir conflict with the Emirati leadership and pointed out similarities with the Palestine issue. He exchanged views on the Afghan peace process and appraised UAE on the recent Taliban Political Commission visit to Islamabad.

The foreign minister condemned India for trying to hurt Pakistan every chance it gets and cited the EU Disinfo Lab’s latest expose on Indian-backed fake NGOs and the news website's strategy to defame and discredit Pakistan.
