It was said that “Victory has a thousand of fathers, but defeat has none.”
This phrase is attributed to the assassinated American President, John Kennedy, that was said when he was accused of submitting to the communist regime in Cuba, in 1961, thus defusing a nuclear war in what was called the “Bay of Pigs” crisis.
The accuracy of attributing that statement to him does not matter as much as the accuracy of it as the truth, as the general public is fond of the winner, and unimpressed with the defeated.
The whole point of this is to know ourselves and our true position towards the Palestinian resistance:
Today, if she wins this battle, she will find a thousand fathers and fathers, bragging about their support for her and his contribution to her victory, even in an article on a website or a post on a platform.
But, but… What if the resistance is defeated in an evil way, and completely crushed… Will you be among those who take the initiative to delete his posts, and bend his neck to move away from everything that links him to it and to the issue called: Palestine? Or will you remain loyal to this right, holding this burning coal?
To know the answer from now on, all you have to do is conduct, on yourself, a simple psychological exercise, while you are living this sensitive moment in the developments of the battle with the Zionist enemy, before the beginning of the next round of this current battle, and before deciding its end with the Zionist enemy: ask yourself: A clear and tough question:
What if the resistance is defeated?
What if, during these next two days, the enemy surprised the resistance fighters in the tunnels, fired sarin gas at them, and proceeded to kill them? The resistance fighters suffered losses amounting to tens of thousands of martyrs? In one night. The Zionist enemy published their pictures on the world’s satellite channels and social media platforms, with soldiers in their blood? They were suffocated under the rubble of tunnel dust. The Zionists combed Gaza from north to south. They took its residents like a herd towards the Negev desert and the Rafah border. They got them settled in tents, and leveled the city of Gaza to the ground, and it became a plain, flat, neither crooked nor dull.
The obnoxious Avichai, came out to us declaring victory by saying: “We have crushed the terrorists, and saved the Palestinians from Hamas.” Netanyahu and his war minister celebrated the victory with their soldiers, from the heart of the resistance operations room, and bragged about taking snapshots of him wandering inside the resistance tunnels.
What would you do then? Other than being sad, and heartbroken?
Will you stop embracing the Palestinian cause? Will you accept the “reality”? Will you recognize the oppressor’s right for the occupation?
Will you wonder: What could I have done? We supported them but they lost? And your life resumes as it was. Is it even quieter than it was? Where no people are embarrassing you for supporting them, nor will there be any resistance putting you in an atmosphere of war and scenes of destruction.
Will you do that? Or will you start your new resistance?
And raise the word of God as a motto: (Those [believers] who responded to Allah and the Messenger after injury had struck them. For those who did good among them and feared Allah is a great reward) As was revealed about the companions of the prophet SAW, after the Battle of Uhud.
Will you consider the martyrs of the resistance to be mere adventurers whose affairs have ended? Or will you consider them as a headlight that illuminates the path of truth and struggle for the sake of pride, dignity, freedom and justice?
If you lack all of this, then you should at least return to the evidence of the history of other nations, and read the history of Herodotus, to learn that the Spartan king, Leonidas, led a resistance operation with 300 soldiers who were most loyal to his cause, against 300 thousand Persian soldiers, who were under the command of Chosroes Xerxes, who he intended to subjugate Sparta.
The result of the clash was final: all the resistors were crushed, including the king. Apart from a survivor, who went, commissioned by the leader, to tell the story. This story was told to his wife, Queen Gorga, who led a campaign that ignited the enthusiasm of the people of Sparta and the Greeks around her, so she recruited her army, and it was the Battle of Thermopylae, in the year 400 BC.
Will you be among those who receive the story, and mobilize the people of the area and its region, in preparation for the final battle against the occupation, so that it will be completely wiped out from our nation and our land, to never to return?
The resistance is not a football team that you area pleased with if it wins the match, and could turn away from, if it loses. You are not a cheering crowd, clapping once and whistling another.
Resistance is a matter of liberation and dignity. It remains your being, as much as you are a human being, whether you are victorious or defeated.
