Betapa Lemahnya Pemimpin Dunia Arab

Sakit hati ini bila membaca berita yang bertajuk "Gaza agreement eludes Arab leaders" yang disiarkan oleh aljazeera. Pelik sungguh melihat perangai sebahagian besar pemimpin Arab ini. Bersidang sampai 2 hari di Kuwait tetapi tak boleh mencapai kata sepakat bagaimana cara nak salurkan bantuan ke Gaza. Bayangkanlah betapa 'bangangnya' puak-puak pemimpin Arab ni. Boleh diterima akal ke jika mereka mengatakan buntu untuk mencari mekanisma terbaik bagi menyalurkan bantuan ke Palestin. Hei, pelik sungguh betul aku dengan orang Arab ni ...

Dalam keadaan saudara Islam kita di Gaza amat memerlukan bantuan dalam semua aspek, boleh puak-puak Arab ni buat "lawak bodoh". Tak tahu cara nak salurkan bantuan. Sebenarnya sebahagian besar pemimpin Arab ni takut kat Israel. Tak tahulah apa yang mereka takutkan sangat dengan puak jahanam rejim Israel ni.

Aku teringat kata Abang Mat (Mat Sabu). Tegasnya, 100 tahun lagi pun negara-negara Arab tidak akan berjaya mengalahkan Israel sebab para pemimpin Arab yang ada hari ini telah dilalaikan dengan segala kemewahan dunia. Mereka sudah tidak ada sensitiviti terhadap penderitaan yang dialami oleh rakyat Palestin. Kata Abg Mat lagi, yang boleh membantu perjuangan Hamas dan rakyat Palestin hanyalah golongan orang yang beriman dan bertaqwa sahaja.

Aku setuju dengan kata Mat Sabu ni. Kita lihat saja apa yang dibuat oleh pemimpin Arab apabila Israel mulakan kempen serangan besar-besaran terhadap Gaza pada Disember lalu. Mereka langsung tak buat apa-apa. Hanya melihat saja dari jauh Wilayah Gaza di bom secara ganas oleh pesawat-pesawat pejuang rejim Zionis laknatullah.

Puak-puak Arab ni tak sedar bahawa golongan Yahudi Zionis ni sebenarnya mentertawakan mereka kerana takut untuk membantu Palestin. Semakin hari semakin angkuh dan bongkak rejim Zionis dalam melakukan serangan terhadap umat Islam Palestin dengan 'lesen besar' yang diberikan oleh George Bush.

Hanya 2 negara Arab yang ada menandatangani perjanjian damai dengan Israel dan ada kedutaan Israel. Yang lainnya langsung tiada hubungan dengan rejim Zionis ni. Peliknya, kenapa perlu 'takut' dengan Israel. Dengan 'kuasa minyak' yang dimiliki, dunia Arab sebenarnya boleh bertindak sebagaimana mereka pernah buat dahulu terhadap Amerika. Mengapa sekarang tak berani ?

Gaza agreement eludes Arab leaders

Arab leaders have failed to agree on a specific mechanism to support reconstruction in Gaza following Israel's offensive there, despite vowing to provide Gazans with "all forms of support".

Disagreements over how aid should be chanelled to Palestinians blighted the Arab ministers' meeting, held on the sidelines of an Arab economic summit in Kuwait, on Tuesday.

"We have not reached a conclusion because of time constraints and some positions," Hoshyar Zebari, Iraq's foreign minister, told Kuwait Television, without giving details.

"Under these circumstances, it is supposed that all should make concessions for the sake of Arab reconciliation ... Efforts are still being made to hammer out a united position," he said.

Faisal al-Meqdad, the Syrian deputy foreign minister, said: "Realistically speaking, there are differences among Arab brothers."

Arab leaders have pledged $2bn to help reconstruct the Gaza Strip after a three week Israeli offensive that devastated the territory's infrastructure, left 1,300 Palestinians dead, and thousands more displaced.

But there have been disagreements over how the aid will find its way into Gaza, with countries including Saudi Arabia concerned about giving funds directly to Hamas, which currently administers the Gaza Strip.

Rifts over Israel

"They [the Arab leaders] decided to confine themselves in a general statement to postpone differences," Al Jazeera's Hashem Ahelbarra reported from Kuwait.

"Saudis and Egyptians are very sceptical of [giving money to] Hamas for one reason," he said.

"They think Syria and Iran are using Hamas to destabilise the region and provide the Iranians for an opportunity to further penetrate the Arab region."

The question of how to respond to the Israeli offensive has divided Arab nations, with some nations calling for strong action while others prefer a softer approach.

At the Kuwait summit, Syria and Qatar held Kuwaiti-mediated discussions with Saudi Arabia and Egypt in an attempt to heal the rift.

While Qatar and Syria favour a firm stance on Israel, Egypt and Saudi Arabia have said that the conflict has its roots in the alleged interference of Iran.

Shaky ceasefire

At a special meeting in Doha, the Qatari capital, last week Arab countries were urged to review their ties with Israel and to suspend a 2002 Arab peace initiative.

But Arab foreign ministers prepared a different set of resolutions for approval on Tuesday, including a pledge of support for Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestinian president whose Fatah movement controls only the West Bank.

Arab leaders have also called for a framework to be set up to cement a shaky ceasefire, called separately by both Israel and Gaza on Sunday.

At least 17 Arab heads of state were attending the two-day economic talks in Kuwait while senior representatives stood in for the other five member states of the Arab League.

The summit itself was focused on accelerating economic integration among Arab states and confront the fallout of the global financial crisis.

The summit's final session was delayed by the disagreement over the Arab response to Israel.
