Sir,

MEMORANDUM OF COALITION OF MUSLIM NGO'S OF MALAYSIA
ON THE RECENT ATTACK ON GAZA

Coalition of Muslim NGO's of Malaysia condemns in no uncertain term the recent attack on Gaza. The tragedy unfolding before us even as this memorandum is prepared speaks of yet another horrendous crime perpetrated by the Zionist regime of Israel on the occupied territory of Palestine.

The 18 month old unprecendented total siege and blockade on Gaza by the Zionist regime, backed by the US has never shown sign of let off, instead it continues with the recent pounding on civilian targets, killing close to 300 innocent Gazans and still counting, as bodies are being recovered from the rubbles.

The Zionist regime in her true form, continues to deceive the international community by claiming legitimacy of such heinuous crime in the act of self defense. They were targeting the so called 'rocket launching' sites of Palestinian fighters by pounding Palestinian police headquaters smacked right in the middle of a Palestinian neighbourhood. In defiance of international law and the Geneva convention, Israeli indiscrimately attack innocent civilians by training their guns and weapons on population centres.

The end of the 6-month truce in December has provided Tel Aviv the long awaited moment to unleash her calculated military solutions to deal with the Hamas government of Gaza. The truth is, Israel with a strong US advocate will never stop at anything to ensure a continued occupation of Gaza and the occupied Palestine. This is the reason behind the recent military incursions into Gaza. This is the very reason why, against all sense of fairplay and humanitarian considerations, Gaza was placed under complete siege without access to food, medicine, fuel and assistance from the international community. There is only one single objective on the Zionist agenda i.e to subjugate and break the spirit of the Palestinian people so that they give up their national aspirations and fight for the liberation of their land from occupation.

We, the coalition of muslim NGO's of Malaysia call upon the government of the United States of America to close ranks with the rest of the international community to take Israel to task for the most recent human tragedy sustained by the people of Gaza. We urge the Government of the United States of America to use her influence and political will to restrain Israel from continuing with her barbaric acts. We hold the government of the United States of America responsible for the death, destructions and sufferings by the wanton acts of Tel Aviv.

We also called on the United States, The United Nation and the Powerful Quartet to lift the siege on Gaza so that international aid and humanitarian assistance can be brought into Gaza in no time.
