Their allies comprise NATO and non-NATO countries, the European Union, and even distant nations like New Zealand. Despite their differences, they unite to combat terrorism. However, the question remains: who are these terrorists?<br \/>\nLet me enlighten you. They are Iraqis, Yemenis, Palestinians, Syrians, Afghans, and Sudanese, among others. According to the prevailing narrative, Iraq was a hub for terrorist training, making it justifiable to kill them, and Muslim women were fair game for rape. Human rights are seemingly nonexistent (I\u2019m not advocating for women\u2019s rights here). Iraqi Muslim children were martyred, and innocent civilians were terrorized&#8230; yet, they are not considered terrorists.<br \/>\nMoving on, what about the Syrian Muslims? Who can forget their plight? When a young, wounded girl, clutching her martyred brother, cried out against the oppressors, saying, \u201cI will complain to my God about all of you!\u201d Wasn\u2019t their mass killing an act of terrorism? Apparently not.<br \/>\nWhat about the Palestinians, who have endured ongoing terrorism since 1948? When they rose up against their oppressors, America and its allies saw an opportunity to perpetuate their anti-Muslim and anti-humanitarian agenda. America went to great lengths to defend its illegitimate child, Israel, and tore apart the fabric of humanity&#8230; yet, the Palestinians remained the terrorists.<br \/>\nIf they commit every possible war crime \u2013 using white phosphorus, taking civilians hostage, and perpetrating genocide \u2013 they are still not considered terrorists. Human settlements are targeted, and it\u2019s called national defense&#8230; what kind of humanity is this?<br \/>\nIf I were to paint a brief picture of the atrocities committed by the American CIA against Afghan mujahideen and innocent civilians in the aftermath of the 2001 anti-Muslim conspiracy&#8230; it\u2019s a story that defies words. The tales of those prisoners, who were later released, are heartbreaking. Many became mentally ill, and some lost their lives. However, the badge of terrorism is worn by those who were targeted by American terrorism.<br \/>\nSometimes, I wonder if anyone speaks out against the mass killings of Muslims because, to the champions of humanity, it\u2019s just Muslim lives being lost, not human lives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>amna ayub The American military is often regarded as a champion of humanity and a major force against terrorism.
