EKONOMI KAPITALISME GAGAL !!

Krisis ekonomi global yang mulai meletus di penghujung tahun 2008 lalu hingga saat ini masih menjadi ‘ancaman mengerikan’ bagi masyarakat dunia. Di sisi lain, para pemerintah di negara-negara yang menderita akibat krisis ini, khususnya negara-negara kapitalis besar seperti AS dan Eropah, nampaknya telah gagal dalam mengatasi krisis tersebut. Kadar pengangguran global sangat membimbangkan banyak negara, menyebabkan puluhan ribu hilang pekerjaan dan sumber pendapatan.

Kapitalisme telah gagal dan tidak layak buat manusia. Sebab, Kapitalisme tegak di atas ideologi yang rosak, ideologi yang batil secara dasarnya. Dari sisi praktikalnya, ideologi Kapitalisme sejak kemunculannya hingga sekarang tidak pernah berjaya kecuali mencipta krisis demi krisis yang menyebabkan jutaan orang miskin hingga di negara-negara kaya dan maju sekalipun. Hal itu disebabkan politik ekonomi yang zalim, yang tidak memelihara urusan-urusan manusia. Pasalnya, negara kapitalis bukanlah negara yang memelihara segala urusan rakyat (laysa dawlah ri’âyah). Negara kapitalis merupakan Negara pemungut harta (dawlah jibâyah). Masalah pengangguran amat membimbangkan pemimpin-pemimpin negara kapitalis kerana kadar pengangguran tinggi boleh mengurangkan pendapatan negara dan memberi kesan langsung kepada jumlah pungutan cukai pendapatan dan cukai keuntungan syarikat.

Jenuh sudah umat Islam menghadapi penderitaan di dalam sistem pemerintahan Kapitalis hari ini. Pemimpin mereka beragama Islam tetapi cara hidup mereka adalah Kapitalis. Jadi, sistem Islam mereka campakkan, walhal satu-satunya jalan untuk mengatasi masalah pengangguran, kemiskinan, kebuluran dan seumpamanya adalah dengan kembali kepada sistem Islam. Sistem Ekonomi Islam menjamin pemenuhan keperluan biologi manusia tanpa mengira Muslim atau selainnya. Ekonomi Islam juga menyediakan peluang-peluang pekerjaan kepada rakyat Daulah Islam (Khilafah) sebagai salah satu usaha bagi memenuhi keperluan manusia. Golongan miskin dan kurang upaya mendapat perhatian serius oleh pihak Khilafah sama ada mereka dibekalkan prasarana peningkatan diri melalui pendidikan, peluang kerjaya mahupun disara sepenuhnya. Rasulullah dan Khulafa Rasyidun dahulu tidak pernah membiarkan rakyat mereka hidup dalam kemiskinan, pengangguran apatah lagi kebuluran. Mereka semua dapat menikmati hidup yang sejahtera di bawah naungan sistem pemerintahan Khilafah. Sistem Ekonomi Islam adalah satu-satunya sistem ekonomi yang telah Allah Swt. turunkan. Dialah Pencipta dan Dia Mahatahu atas apa yang layak bagi ciptaan-Nya. Firman Allah s.w.t dalam surah Al-Mulk [67] : 14,

“Tidakkah Allah Yang menciptakan sekalian makhluk itu mengetahui (segala-galanya)? sedang ia Maha Halus urusan PentadbiranNya, lagi Maha mendalam PengetahuanNya!”

“Siapa saja yang dijadikan Allah mengurusi suatu urusan kaum muslimin lalu ia tidak peduli akan hajat, keperluan, dan kemiskinan mereka, maka Allah tidak peduli akan hajat, keperluan, dan kemiskinan-nya.”

The Muslim Rulers’ Support of Israel (Part 3)

Part 1 and 2 are in the previous posts. This fragment of essay is taken from http://www.hizb.org.uk/hizb/resources/issues-explained/the-muslims-rulers-support-of-israel.html.

Economic blockade

It may be stating the obvious but the Israel is land, sea and air locked by the Muslim countries. So Israel is dependent on the Muslim countries for its survival and for access to the outside world. What would be the impact of a Sea, Land and Air blockade?

Sea Blockade

Some 98% (by weight) of Israel's imports and exports travel by sea (www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org). Just as Israel with its minute naval force imposed a sea blockade on Lebanon, it would be easy for Egypt, Syria and Turkey to impose a sea blockade on Israel further up the Mediterranean sea. Israel imports 90% of the oil it consumes, majority of which is imported by oil tankers. This blockade will have a major impact on its Energy requirements. The major oil ports are at Ashkelon and Eilat, currently the port at Ashkelon receives oil from Russia in tankers via the Bosphorus, which is controlled by Turkey. In 1989 Egypt supplied about 45% of Israel's oil needs but this has been gradually replaced by Russian oil, currently it is still around 26-30%. The oil tankers arriving at Eilat have to pass though the Gulf of Aqaba whose waters are controlled by Saudi Arabia and Egypt. This is a narrow waterway and a blockade can easily be implemented. The port at Eilat is strategic as it will become a key point of distribution for the central Asian oil to the world market, BP plans to pump oil through Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil and gas pipelines via Turkey through the Israeli Tipline pipeline to Eilat. All the routes require the consent of the Muslim countries. Continuing on the theme of Energy requirements Egypt signed an agreement with Israel in July 2005 to supply Israel between "1.7 to 3 billion cubic feet of natural gas annually for 15 years."( www.arabicnews.com).

The blockade would simply nullify the following treaty, which really exposes how treacherous our rulers have been in aiding Israel:

“Ships of Israel, and cargo destined for or coming from Israel, shall enjoy the right of free passage through the Suez Canal and its approach through the Gulf of Suez and the Mediterranean Sea on the basis of the Constantinople convention of 1888”

“The parties consider the strait of Tiran and the Gulf of Aqaba to be international waterways open to all nations for unimpeded and non-suspendable freedom of navigation and overflight.

“it is agreed that such relations will include normal commercial sales of oil by Egypt to Israel, and that Israel shall be fully entitled to make bids for Egyptian-origin oil”( Treaty Of Peace Between The State Of Israel and The Arab Republic of Egypt - 26/03/1979)

Treaty Of Peace Between The State Of Israel and The Arab Republic of Egypt - 26/03/1979

The sea blockade would also curb the shipment of vitally needed water to Israel from Turkey. Israel and Turkey signed a 'water for arms' agreement in Jan 2004 where Turkey would “ship 50 million cubic metres of water a year for 20 years from the river Manavgat in Anatolia”(Guardian UK) to Israel in water tankers.

The Muslim Rulers’ Support of Israel (Part 2)

This is the continuation of The Muslim Rulers’ Support of Israel (Part 1), posted previously.

The Muslim rulers have cited many excuses for their inaction, the main one being the superiority of Israel’s military and that confronting Israel will bring harm to their national economies. Let us examine what options are actually available to these rulers:

 Military – Direct confrontation
 Economic and cultural isolations of Israel.

Militarily

Published figures show that the Muslim armies combined outnumber the Israeli forces by a ratio of 68 Muslim soldiers to one Israeli soldier. The Muslim countries spend almost 17 times more on their military budgets than Israel. So it is clear that a united Muslim armed force is the dominant military power in the region. Even with their advanced military technology, the Israelis cannot overcome such a large military force.

Also, after a brief glance at the borders of Israel, it is clear that it would be virtually impossible for Israel to defend itself from a simultaneous land offensive from Egypt, Jordan and Syria. You may be wondering have not these states engaged in a war against Israel before. Yes they have, but those wars were in reality ‘scenario wars’ with the objective of seeking peace with Israel.

This was mentioned by Mohammed Heikal's in his book "The Road to Ramadan" - he quotes one of Sadat's generals, Mohammed Fouwzi who gave the analogy of a samurai drawing two swords - a long one and short one in preparation for battle. Fouwzi said that this battle ( the 1967-six day war) would be a case of the short sword, signifying a limited battle for certain motives. Indeed, this gross betrayal by of the Ummah by Egypt is currently matched by Turkey who assists Israel in her military exercises. As a Turkish news agency stated;

"Billion-dollar military agreements, intelligence cooperation, maneuvers and secret operations are being made between Turkey and Israel. Israeli war planes are flying over Konya. A common missile shield project is on the agenda between the two countries; it’s under consideration for the missiles to be located on the borders of Iran and Syria. In a 20 thousand square kilometre area in the Konya valley, there were maneuvers of hundreds of planes making a nuclear attack. Dozens of examples like this can be shown. In short, Turkey is Israel’s friend and ally" – (http://www.zaman.com/?bl=columnists&alt=&trh=20060824&hn=35945)

The Muslim Rulers’ Support of Israel

Issues Explained

Sunday, 28 December 2008

"If I were an Arab leader, I would never sign an agreement with Israel. It is normal; we have taken their country. It is true God promised it to us, but how could that interest them? Our God is not theirs. There has been Anti - Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?" David Ben Gurion – First Israeli Prime Minister (1) This statement made by Ben Gurion in 1948 reveals a great deal about the status of the Muslim Rulers in the eyes of Zionists. Even Ben Gurion the first prime minister of Israel regarded the act of signing an agreement by a Muslim ruler with the state of Israel as a betrayal of the people they represented. However, today the Muslims rulers are not content in their betrayal by signing treaties with the state of Israel, they are working to normalise relations between this illegal entity and the Muslim countries and they also oppose any resistance to the occupying state of Israel. This is why Ben Gurion regarded the Muslim rulers to be in the Israeli camp when he said that the Arab regimes are the first line of defence for Israel, he also said “the Moslem regime is artificial and easy for us to undermine”(2). What he means by artificial is that these Muslim rulers have been artificially imposed on the Muslim Ummah ever since the Uthmani Khilafah was destroyed in 1924. The failure of the Muslim rulers to respond to the aggression carried out over the years by non-Muslim states against the Muslim Ummah has exposed the betrayal of the Muslim rulers. The ultimate betrayal was witnessed during the recent war between Israel and Hizbullah, when Muslim rulers blamed Hizbullah for instigating the war. The war was in fact instigated by Israel in its plan to disarm Hizbullah, which is the only military force in the region resisting Israel and protecting the people from Israeli aggression. Most of the biased western media outlets put the blame on Hizbullah for instigating the war, but when we examine a UN report on the matter of the conflict since the Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon in 2000 the report mentions many Israeli violations: “Regarding air violations, the report stated that Israeli aircraft violated the line on an almost daily basis, penetrating deep into Lebanese airspace”(Jan-July 2001) “Of equal concern, stated the Secretary-General, were Israeli air violations of the Blue Line, which continued on an almost daily basis, penetrating deep into Lebanese airspace. These incursions were not justified and caused great concern to the civilian population, particularly low-altitude flights that break the sound barrier over populated areas.”(Jan-Jul 2002) “The Secretary-General also voiced deep concern that “ Israel persists in its provocative and unjustified air violations of sovereign Lebanese territory. Hezbollah's retaliatory firing of anti-aircraft rounds across the Blue Line "is a violation that poses a direct threat to human life", he added.” (Jan-July 2004). Secretary-General report to the Security Council in 2001/2002/2004 So in the words of the Secretary General in 2004, it was Israel, which was the provocateur and Hizbullah was only responding to the Israeli aggression. As regards to the “kidnapping” of Israel soldiers, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) 2006 report on Israel explained: “At the end of 2005, approximately 11,200 Palestinians were held by Israel in interrogation units, temporary detention centres, military detention camps, prisons and police stations” “12,192 detainees visited, including 7,504 monitored individually (of whom 131 women and 565 minors)” The document states that ICRC issued documents to 17,882 detainees, so the total number of detainees being held illegally may be much higher. These numbers quoted are the detainees which ICRC has access to. There are a large number of Muslims who have gone missing and are therefore not reported in these figures. Most of the detainees have been either abducted or kidnapped on the streets in Palestine or Lebanon. It is worth noting that 565 are minors. So, when Israel claims that it has been provoked into this war with Lebanon due the kidnapping of three Israeli soldiers by Hizbullah, it is nothing but a complete distortion of the truth. It is clear to see that in fact Israel is the provocateur. The facts presented above are well known in the region and especially by the Muslim rulers, and yet they blamed Hizbullah for instigating the war, which allowed them to lay the basis for their inaction. They even sought to promote divisions in the Muslim Ummah by calling the issue a sectarian one along the lines of Shia and Sunni, highlighting the fact that Hizbullah is Shia and is supported by Iran. The main reason for their inaction is that they do not serve the interest of this Ummah, rather they serve the interest of their colonial masters America and Britain. According to Abdullah Mohamed, professor of international relations at Kuwait University: “Blaming Hezbollah is a message to the U.S. from these countries, which says they are sources of stability and will continue to serve U.S. interests in the region,'' President Mubaraks statement reflects the stance of a Muslim ruler in the area: "Those who urge Egypt to go to war to defend Lebanon or Hezbollah are not aware that the time of exterior adventures is over," "Those who are asking for war will make us lose all of that in a blink," "The Egyptian army is for defending Egypt only and this is not going to change," Press Trust of India - Cairo, July 26, 2006 These rulers once promoted Arab unity and they also claim to profess Muslim unity through the Organisation of Islamic Conferences (OIC). But when challenged to act on this unity they profess self-interest. The statement of Mubarak reminds us of Musharaf’s words when Afghanistan was invaded by the US in 2002, he said: “Pakistan first”. But don’t be fooled into thinking that they will even defend the nation state, as we know with Iraq, Sadaam Hussein did not release the armies to defend the nation against the invading US force, it was the people and individual soldiers who took up arms to defend Baghdad in 2003. In fact the statements made by King Adbullah of Jordan , King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia and Hosni Mubarak criticizing Hizbullah implicitly gave justification for Israel’s attack and she took it as a green light to invade Lebanon.

Tercatat 1.323 Syuhada Gaza, Penderitaan Belum Berakhir

Syabab.Com - Setelah pasukan teroris Israel meninggalkan Gaza, bukan berarti derita Gaza dan Palestina berakhir. Hingga hari ini Gaza dan Palestina masih terjajah. Entah di manakah pasukan Pemebebas, anak cucu Shalahuddin Al-Ayubi itu kini? Jumlah syuhada Gaza hingga hari Rabu telah mencapai 1.323 orang. Menurut Mu'awiya Hassanein, direktur departemen pelayanan darurat dan ambulan mengatakan jumlah warga yang terluka mencapai 5.450 orang.

Tambahan yang syahid itu, ditemukan dua perempuan tua yang diidentifikasi bernama Kamila Al-Atar berumur 90 tahun dan Halima Siyam berumur 62 tahun. Tubuh mereka ditemukan di bawah puing-puing di Kota Gaza Selasa larut malam.

Tiga warga Palestina akhirnya meninggal setelah mengalami komplikasi cedera dalam serangan berkelanjutan teroris Israel itu. Ketiga orang itu diidentifikasi bernama Muhammad Abu Sweirih, yang meninggal di sebuah rumah sakit Mesir, Imad Miqdad yang meninggal di Rumah Sakit Khan Younis, Muhammad Madi, meninggal di Rumah sakit Ash-Shifa di Kota Gaza.

Hari Selasa terakhir, sumber medis mengumumkan seorang petani, 20 tahun, Nasr Salih Nasr, yang ditembak oleh Israel.

Sebelumnya, dua orang anak-anak Palestina juga syahid setelah terbunuh oleh peledak yang ditinggalkan oleh pasukan zionis Israel di Gaza. Mereka diidentifikasi bernama Abdullah Hassanain berusia 10 tahun dan kakanya Shuroq berusia 11 tahun.

Sementara itu, menurut staf logistik "medical Rescue Commite (MER-C) Idnoensia yang sudah berada di Gaza selama dua hari sejak mereka masuk pada Senin, Kota Gaza membutuhkan pasok bantuan makanan menyusul semakin minimnya persediaan.

Kesulitan di Gaza bukan hari ini saja, mereka telah diblokade sebelum pembantaian zionis Israel. Hanya sekedar untuk makan dan minum saja mereka kesulitan. Kesulitan hidup akibat blokade, ditambah luluh lantahnya Gaza setelah serangan brutal Israel semakin memperparah keadaan.

"Para keluarga laki laki kami telah kehilangan pekerjaannya. mereka menghabiskan keseharian mereka di rumah. Suamiku pergi seharian dari satu tempat ke tempat lain hanya demi mendapatkan (kebutuhan) dasar air. Biasanya dia kembali ke rumah dengan tangan hampa," tutur Umm Taqi dalam suratnya yang sempat dibacakan di saluran IslamChanel yang bermarkas di London.

Derita Gaza telah memperlihatkan kepada umat pengkianatan para penguasa negeri-negeri Islam. Mereka telah membiarkan seribu lebih warga Muslim Gaza dibantai, sementara mereka hanya duduk-duduk saja. Apalagi dengan kebiadaban Penguasa Mesir Mubarak, dua hari sebelum pembantaian, Mubarak berjabat tangan dengan Menlu Israel.

Sungguh, penderitaan ini tak pernah terjadi sebelumnya kecuali setelah kehormatan umat ini hilang. Para penguasa Muslim malah berharap pada PBB, yang nota bene menjadi alat bagi AS, sementara sebagian umat Muslim masih mencengkram ide-ide yang telah melemahkan mereka, seperti demokrasi dan nasionalisme. Padahal, kedua ide inilah yang telah dipaksakan ke benak kaum Muslim, menyebabkan umat kehilangan wibawa dan kehormatan. Demokrasi menyebabkan umat berpaling dari cahaya Allah, sementara nasionalisme menyebabkan mereka terpecah belah dalam sekat-sekat batas semu negara. Hasilnya derita umat terus terjadi, karena mereka telah berpaling dari peringatan-Nya, yakni Islam.

Sampai kapan umat ini sadar untuk kembali kepada Islam di bawah pangkuan Khilafah, sehingga kehormatan umat dan Islam ini akan kembali? [f/mna/syabab.com]
