We oppose Israel’s Zionist designs. We want the rulers of Muslim countries to fight against Israel.

“We demand that prices be reduced. The electricity price has been raised because of the IPPs (independent power producers) which were imposed on us by the international lending agencies. We pay for the capacity charges of these IPPs. Our ruling class is getting privileges. It should curtail its privileges. There should be no free electricity for anyone. Then the price of electricity will come down. If petrol is not given for free to the ruling class, then its price for the masses will come down.”

STORYLINE:
Protesters set fire to the flags of the United States and Israel in Karachi on Sunday during demonstrations in support of the Palestinians.
Demonstrators from the Palestine Foundation Pakistan (PFP) held banners and signs reading “Al-Aqsa Flood“, the name given by Hamas to their attack against Israel.
They chanted “Bomb Israel, we are with you” and “The war will continue till Israel’s destruction” during Sunday’s rally in the Pakistani port city.
Separately, supporters of the Jamaat-e-Islami party, who were staging a protest against inflation and price hikes in Pakistan, also voiced support for Hamas, chanting “Jihad is the only solution to Israel’s aggression”.
Hafiz Naeemur Rehman, the leader of Jamaat-e- Islami, Karachi, praised Hamas for starting “a strong movement against Zionists.”
“We support the resistance of Hamas. We oppose Israel’s Zionist designs. We want the rulers of Muslim countries to fight against Israel. If a small group like Hamas can fight against Israel why can’t the standing armies of Muslim countries do the same?” said Rehman.
He also commented on the increasing costs of electricity and petrol in Pakistan saying they could be brought down if the “ruling classes“ were not given free utilities.
