HYDERABAD, Jan 5: The Sunni Tehrik activists protested mass killing of Palestinians by Israeli forces and the insipidity of the US, and the UN by holding a shoe tossing competition on the effigies of George Bush and Barat Ehud and later publicly hanging these.

Protesters were venting their anger over the Israeli aggression on Palestinians and the silence of the US and the UN over it.

Khalid Hassan Qadri leading the rally condemned the killing of 500 innocent Palestinian Muslims including children and women and said that the UN was an enemy of Muslims as it was keeping mum on Israeli atrocities.

He likened Israel as an illegal child of the US for inflicting horror on the Muslims of the Middle East. He called on the Muslims of other countries to arouse from the slumber as they could be the next target. He asked the Muslim nations for an economic boycott of the West by stopping oil supply and shunning their productsHe advised the government to pass a resolution against Israel in the UN and try uniting Muslim leaders on one platform against Israeli aggression.

Amin Qadri, Qari Muhammad Ali Qadri, and others also addressed the rally.—PPI
