Said the Indigenous People of Their Land -Evil Provocation

Said the indigenous people of their land, "Our Lord, Since time started we lived here, before prophets and their offsprings. We built sanctuaries and prayer houses. Our Lord, today like never before, we are under siege as suffering invades our homes, steal our sons, silently rape our daughters, and imprisons our men. Our Lord, when will you end this siege, this carnage, this destruction, this inhumanity. Stop the collective effort by mighty nations to suppress our people. Do we not show solitude in prayer to you?" Do we not show humility, to those who seek our brotherly feelings? Yet these evil outbursts and suppressing efforts to batten us down keep us enslaved within new walls in our lands, of ancient times, which we had never forsaken. Our Lord, Four thousand years back, we took in their father Abraham, treated him with love and kindness in our homes and when he wandered off, raised his children as ours. Do you not see how they repay us? With evil upon evil, Our Lord, We beseech thee, free Palestine and the Palestinian people from this siege. © Al.
