Hawzah News Agency- The statement also says that Arab Muslim nations should ban the use of their airspace to support the Israeli government, announce consideration of an embargo on any oil or gas sales that benefit the Israeli government, facilitate the travel of humanitarian convoys and flotillas attempting to break the siege on Gaza, and send a diplomatic aid mission to demand entry to Gaza.
The joint statement–which was originally released in August with 85 signatories–reads, in part:
“Business as usual in international affairs is simply not working. We believe that the governments of the Muslim-majority nations of the world should not wait for the ‘international community’ to grow a conscience. This is especially true of Arab Muslim nations surrounding Palestine.
“We believe that these governments have the unique opportunity, legal authority, and moral basis to take greater, immediate and concrete action to pressure the Israeli occupation to end this carnage.
“Although a genocide should matter to every single human being regardless of their faith, this genocide against a predominantly Muslim population carried out by an openly racist, anti-Muslim government should especially matter to the ummah of Prophet Muhammad, may peace be upon him. So should the fate of Palestine, including Masjid Al Aqsa''.
