Pro-Gaza rally doesn't reflect govt and Muslims' stand on Palestine: Saifuddin

Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said any restrictions by organisers Viva Palestina Malaysia and Humanitarian Care Malaysia were in response to what was happening during the rally, rather than being imposed by the government.“In this Parliament, I stress that, I stand by the government’s position and deliver it with full responsibility. Our recognition of Palestine, our sympathy for them, no one can dispute.

Saifuddin said the chant should not be the main focus, when compared to the lives of the Palestinians.“What is the main issue? solidarity with the Palestinians... the lives of two million people who are at risk, removing people from Gaza, this is what the prime minister has done, being the coordinator for the Asean side. Whether or not we can chant the ‘takbir’ that is not the main issue. ‘Takbir’ means chanting the greatness of Allah, there is no dispute between us.

On Sunday, thousands of Malaysians thronged the Dataran Merdeka in solidarity with Palestine following Israel’s latest backlash and imminent intrusion into northern Gaza, including PKR’s Nurul Izzah Anwar and Fahmi Fadzil.
