The rapid developments taking place in West Asia have quite significant symbolic connotations related to one of the most crucial issues of concern to all Muslims and all advocates of freedom and justice, which is the Palestinian cause, and what Palestine has been exposed to - for more than seven decades - while the Palestinians are still being subjected to various forms of aggression and bias.

The noble Qur’anic verse (28:5) states, “And We desired to bestow a favor upon those who were oppressed in the land, and to make them the imams, and to make them the heirs.”

With Trump’s announcement of moving the US embassy to Al-Quds and the disgraceful ‘normalization’ agreements, many - short-sighted, negligent and involved in the colonial scheme - thought that the Palestinian cause had ended. These bets are nothing but illusions, and have shown their failure as the notorious “Wadi Araba” and “Camp David” agreements had hitherto proven.

Historically, Western powers have unashamedly conspired against the Palestinians, yet the Islamic Republic of Iran has shown unwavering support for Palestine and the peoples of the region.

The last Friday of the Holy Month of Ramadan marks “International Quds Day.”  This event was established by the late leader of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Khomeini (R), on the 7th of August 1979. At the time, he said, “The International Quds Day is a day in which Islam is to be revived.” On this occasion, Muslims and the free people of the world organize marches in solidarity with the oppressed people of Palestine, while also denouncing the heinous crimes committed by the Zionist occupation.

Many heroes have been martyred for the sake of the liberation of Palestine, such as Hajj Qassem Soleimani, Hajj Imad Mughniyeh and others. Today, their pro-resistance nations have become quite certain of the imminent liberation of Palestine and the collapse of the temporary entity.

Imam Khomeini (R) was shrewd and insightful when he said, “Quds Day is the day of the awakening of all Islamic peoples.” In other words, he pointed out that the struggle between the camp of the arrogant and the camp of the oppressed is unending. Moreso, the condition for the meek inheriting the earth - as God promises in the aforementioned Quranic verse - is their solidarity and cohesion.

What Imam Khomeini (R) did straightened Iran’s foreign policy. Instead of Iran being an ally of the temporary entity, as it had been during the Shah's era, it became the pioneering advocate of the just Palestinian cause and its supporters.

For decades, some naïve people have believed that the temporary entity has firmly established itself in the Palestinian territories, and that there is no point in resisting at all. These people brazenly refuse to acknowledge the pro-resistance axis’ successive victories, since the liberation of 1985, going through the liberation of 2000, the steadfastness of Gaza in 2005, and the divine victory of 2006.

Now, after more than 12 years of the aggressive war against Syria and more than 7 years of hostilities against Yemen, in parallel with the Saudi-Iranian rapprochement, and the steadfastness of the Palestinian people in all their circumstances, we can expect nothing but the inevitability of Palestine’s liberation. Indeed, the axis of resistance has proven its aptitude to preserve and wisely invest in its achievements in all fields. It is even making great strides in unifying different arenas and fronts in a bid to reach its central goal, i.e. uprooting this hegemonic entity from West Asia.

Without a doubt, the enemy’s security, intelligence and political maneuvers reflect its understanding of this fact. Therefore, it is trying to propose new solutions to its own escalating crisis after its failure to export crises and fortify its own internal front. In both battles “Unity of Battlefield” and “Seif Al-Quds,” the Zionist enemy was keen to avoid any uncalculated step so as not to drag the arms of the axis of resistance into a confrontation.

The colonialist temporary entity has no option but to resort to security routes. However, it has failed to achieve its goals in this arena as well, due to the relations of these loyal revolutionary forces, especially the Lebanese resistance, whose leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah warned that any aggression that the enemy might carry out will be faced with a decisive war.

For his part, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Sayyed Ali Khamenei has stressed in his recent speech, “The strength of the Palestinian forces has increased. We cannot say by several times, but rather by tens of times compared to the past … The ‘Palestine of Oslo’ has turned into the ‘Palestine of A’areen al-Ousood [Lions' Den]’.”

This shows that the pro-resistance axis is on the path of ascension, while the temporary entity is on the path of decline, as it has enough internal cracks that weaken it, and this is a confirmation  of Sayyed Nasrallah's statement from the year 2000 that it is “weaker than a spider's web.”

Meanwhile, the Zionist settlers have reached the stage of losing hope in achieving the trilogy of security, immigration and settlement, alleged by Ben-Gurion who said, “Israel will represent a safe national home for the Jews.” Given the defensive capabilities of the resistance axis, it can be asserted that the survival equation has now been reversed in the Zionist consciousness.

Automatically, when the number of settlers decreases, the number of enemy soldiers also decreases, as those criminal settlers form a reservoir for the occupation army, and this is a contributing factor to the inevitable demise of the temporary entity.

Since 1948, the Zionist project has failed to assimilate its mercenaries, just as it has failed to 'domesticate' the ’48 indigenous Palestinians’ and obliterate their original identity. This has been demonstrated by the recent events taking place in Palestine, especially in the West Bank. Added to this is the decline of American hegemony and the global economic crisis, which had the occupation’s supporters devote themselves to their new priorities, not to mention the emergence of critical voices within the US Democratic Party.

For its part, the pro-resistance media - Al-Mayadeen channel as a model – has contributed to exposing the atrocities of the apartheid regime and its racist imperialist plans, while the people of Palestine are increasingly clinging to their righteous and legitimate cause, along with the free Arab nations who reject all forms of shameful normalization.

In sum, the enemy’s failure to spread surrender and despair among the peoples of West Asia, and to present itself as part of their local demography and geography, will certainly lead to the disintegration of its temporary entity, regardless of whether war occurs or not in the foreseeable future.

The Palestinian cause can never be abandoned by the world's freedom-loving peoples. The miserable methods of starvation and imposing embargos have been overthrown by those tested on the extent of their steadfastness, dignity, and loyalty to the sacrifices of their righteous martyrs; by their sincere leaders from Gaza to Al-Quds, passing through Beirut, Damascus, Baghdad, Sanaa, and Bahrain’s political prisons, which are overcrowded with oppressed leaders loyal to Palestine, as His Eminence Sheikh Ali Salman. We must also not forget to mention the honorable role of Latin Americans and every free human around the world who reject the occupation and plundering of peoples’ wealth.
