Chief of Pakistan's Jamaat-e-Islami Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman and global delegates gathered at the "Echo of Palestine" International Conference Saturday to demand a lasting solution to the decades-long Palestinian crisis.

Why it matters: 


Since October 7, the international community has rallied against the ongoing genocide of Palestinians by the Israeli regime. With renewed U.S. backing for Zionist plans and threats to occupy Palestinian land, global voices are uniting to forge a strong, coordinated strategy for Palestine.

 

What they're saying:


Chief of Jamaat-e-Islami Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman dismissed a two-state solution as unacceptable, labeling Israel an “illegitimate and terrorist state” and affirming that Pakistan’s allegiance lies solely with Palestine.

Palestinian student leader Dr. Ashraf Awad defended Hamas, arguing that its armed struggle complies with international law despite U.S. claims of terrorism.

Turkish student leader Suleh Taran highlighted that Hamas’s actions are a response to historical expulsions, genocide, and ongoing oppression of Palestinians.

 

Key points:

  • Global influencers demand a permanent solution to the Palestinian issue.
  • International journalists are challenging U.S. media control.
  • U.S. political figures, like Trump, are increasingly seen as echoing Israeli policies.
  • The conference paid tribute to Palestinian martyrs, resistance leaders, and journalists who sacrificed their lives for Gaza.

Conference participants stressed that only Palestinians have the right to their homeland.
