“In Beijing, Arab and Muslim ministers urge end to Gaza war,” by Yew Lun Tian and Laurie Chen, Reuters, November 20, 2023:
BEIJING, Nov 20 (Reuters) – Arab and Muslim ministers called on Monday for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, as their delegation visited Beijing on the first leg of a tour to push for an end to hostilities and to allow humanitarian aid into the devastated Palestinian enclave.
The delegation, which is set to meet officials representing each of the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council, is also piling pressure on the West to reject Israel’s justification of its actions against Palestinians as self-defence.
The officials holding meetings with China’s top diplomat Wang Yi on Monday are from Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt, Indonesia, Palestinian authorities and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, among others.
“We are here to send a clear signal: that is we must immediately stop the fighting and the killings, we must immediately deliver humanitarian supplies to Gaza,” said Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud.
The extraordinary joint Islamic-Arab summit in Riyadh this month also urged the International Criminal Court to investigate “war crimes and crimes against humanity that Israel is committing” in the Palestinian territories.
Saudi Arabia has sought to press the United States and Israel for an end to hostilities in Gaza, and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the kingdom’s de facto ruler, gathered Arab and Muslim leaders to reinforce that message.
In comments posted by his ministry on X, formerly known as Twitter, Egyptian foreign minister Sameh Shoukry told his Chinese counterpart: “We look forward to a stronger role on the part of great powers such as China in order to stop the attacks against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. Unfortunately, there are major countries that give cover to the current Israeli attacks.”…

The one thing Muslims look forward to the most is the day when they can kill all the Infidels. How can people look back at nearly 1400 years of history and also read the command from Allah in the Quran to never stop fighting Infidels and STILL provide Muslims with everything they need to accomplish their goal? The stupidity is truly amazing – well, unless you are stupid.

All any “ceasefire” would do is to give time for the jihadists ,who belong to that murderous jihad entity Hamas, to regroup and then viciously attack Israel again and viciously murder her people.
Walter Sieruk says
The jihadists chiefs of Hamas use the strategy that is the Islamic doctrine of if they actually say that they will “honor” as ceasefire and not engage in direct and insidious jihad terror killing attacks against Israel and her people.
Taqiyya is the Islamic dogma that lying and deception is a good ploy as long as it’s done for the advancement of Islam. With Hamas , those of that murderous jihad entity view the elimination of all Jew in the world and the destruction of Israel and replacing her with an “Islamic state “ as greatly accomplishing much for the advancement of Islam.
Therefore, about those who engage in deception the Bible informs its readers that “Enemies disguised themselves with their lips. Proverbs 26:24. Further in the same chapter of Proverbs [v.26 ] teaches Their malice may be concealed by deception.” [N.I.V.] For the God of the Bible “condemns those who devise wicked schemes…” Proverbs 12:11. Likewise, Proverbs 12:20 teaches “Deceit is in the hearts of those who plot evil.”
In conclusion .Let’s not be beguiled to the sly and insidious jihadist methods of Taqiyya.
William Kemmler says
Re-group. Re-arm. That is the only purpose for Hamas’ allies have for seeking a cease fire. It’s not and has never been about “humanitarian aid”. Hamas has clearly shown they care nothing about civilians. It’s all about allowing Hamas to re-group, re-arm and then continue the fight to attempt to destroy Israel and the Jews.
Stopping at this point with another bogus “cease fire” would be insane on Israel’s part. At this point Israel needs to double down on their efforts to eliminate Hamas and any other threat to the existence of Israel and Israeli citizens. That’s the only way Israel will ever have peace.

Of course they would. They are promoters and enablers of the worst religion of all time. I trust none of them.
In the courts of common sense, accurate knowledge and basic morality, every Muslim, let alone “Muslim ministers,” should be considered guilty until proven innocent. The standard Common Law and Roman Law versions of innocent until proven guilty, laudable as they are, simply do not work when dealing with forces of deception and iniquity and thus an “opposite take” is required. Easily so unless one is stupid or suicidal which, unfortunately, way too many people are nowadays, for instance the leaders of many Western nations as well as that putrid excuse for a pontifex maximus, Francis I.
