Gaza War Demonstration, Hull, 10th January, 2009


My friend, Shafudin took part in the 'Stop the Gaza War' demonstration in Hull City Centre. Hari itu hari Sabtu dan temanku ini berhimpun mulai jam 1.30 tengahari-3.30 petang. Sahabatku ini, pergi dengan Syahida, 19 tahun, Zubair 8 tahun dan seorang pelajar ‘undergrad’, Syakirin (Syek). Antara aktiviti yang berlangsung ialah perarakan, ucapan-ucapan di depan tugu berhampiran Paragon Station dan di depan Bangunan BBC Hull. Pihak polispun mengawal dengan baik. Aku difahamkan ramai juga rakan-rakan Islam dari 'Middle East', Pakistan menghadiri demonstrasi ini.

It was interesting to see people of all races and nationality turned up to speak out against the terror and inhumane current events of the Gaza Strip. It really was brilliant to see all kinds of people united on this subject - "this war must stop, regardless of favourable sides." I am completley positive on the issue, and I strive for Israelis and Palestinians to coexist peacefully. Let see, how Obama handling this issue. Solving this issue should be everyone's concern. Aku sertakan doa qunut nazilah untuk rujukan. Kepada yang senang hafal, bacalah juga qunut nazilah setiap solat subuh, terutama hari Jumaat.

Terima kasih atas sumbangan maklumat daripada brother, Shafudin Mohd Yatim.
