Thousands protest UAE-Israel peace deal in Pakistan

Tens of thousands of Pakistanis protested on Sunday against the normalisation deal signed between the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Israel, Anadolu reported.

Mass rallies were held across Pakistan, including the capital, Islamabad, the port city of Karachi, northeastern city of Lahore, Rawalpindi, Peshawar, Quetta, Faisalabad, Multan and Hyderabad.

The protests were organised by the Milli Yakjehti Council, a political-religious alliance which called on the Pakistani people to join the protests and denounce “the controversial deal between Abu Dhabi and Tel Aviv”.

In the city of Rawalpindi, thousands of citizens marched through the city streets led by Senator Sirajul Haq, the head of the country’s Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) party.

The Islamic group designated Sunday a day of solidarity and support for the Palestinian resistance against “the Zionist occupation”.

On 13 August, US President Donald Trump announced a peace deal between the UAE and Israel brokered by Washington.

Abu Dhabi said the deal was an effort to stave off Tel Aviv’s planned annexation of the occupied West Bank, however, opponents believe normalisation efforts have been in the offing for many years as Israeli officials have made official visits to the UAE and attended conferences in the country which had no diplomatic of other ties with the occupation state.

Netanyahu repeated yesterday that annexation is not off the table, but has simply been delayed.

These people with their antiquated religion and beliefs will never want peace...they aren’t at peace with themselves much less anybody else...

Pakistan needs a giant fence around it, to keep its in-bred and violent people from spreading out to the rest of the world.

When the jihadist 'mahdi' and his equally stupid followers seized the Grand Mosque in Mecca in 1979, the usual conspiracy-laden BS 'news' was broadcast that Mecca had been attacked by the US. A similarly brain-dead mob of Pakiaholes burned down the US embassy in Islamabad to the ground. Carter was President, so, nothing significant was done, although surprisingly the dumb **** didn't blame the arson and violence on Israel.

People need to check labels on clothing and especially on articles like socks and towels. A LOT of that kind of stuff is manufactured in Pakistan. I make it a practice not to buy goods from terrorist-supporting countries.
