Seems as if the Govt of Pakistan is following the foot steps of Saudi Arabia by banning the protests against Bin Salman’s visit to Pakistan. Islamic Republic of Pakistan has already suffered in the so called ‘Afghan Jehad’ because of Aal e Saud and till today the nation is paying the price. Therefore, Pakistan should not take part in any of Saudi Global Destructive agenda anymore. Quad e Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah (ra) founded Pakistan so that it becomes exemplary for the rest of Umma, not a play ground for Saudi Wahhabi Extremist Aal e Saud Regime. Now, being patriotic Pakistanis we have our apprehensions that in the past Saudi ‘Riyal’ has got Pakistanis killed, therefore, we demand a transparency in the use of funds given to Pakistan and that there is no hidden/sectarian agenda behind it. May our beloved mother land Islamic Republic of Pakistan be safe and prosperous till the day of Judgement. Amin. Pakistan Zinda Bad … Hay’at Ulama e Shia (Pakistan) Toronto

Canadians pack Nathan Philip Square in Toronto to express solidarity with the oppressed people of Kashmir Sunday August 18 (Toronto) – thousands of Canadians packed Toronto’s iconic Nathan Philip Square in Toronto to raise their voices in support of the oppressed people of Kashmir. Organized by Friends of Kashmir Canada, people from all walks of life and belonging to all faiths attended. They included Muslims, Christians, Sikhs and people of other faiths. Young and old, children as well as people in wheelchairs were there to lend support to their Kashmiri brothers and sisters. At its peak the crowd was so large that it could not be accommodated in the square so people had to climb to the overhead walkway to watch the rally below. The rally was held to coincide with India’s independence day celebrations paid for the Indian Consulate in Toronto where an India Food Festival was also held. Realizing the size of the rally in support of the people of Kashmir, Indian consulate staff maintained a low profile and cancelled a number of events including a formal opening ceremony, settling for music blaring from their loudspeakers. The several dozen vendors peddling greasy Indian food were also subdued, preferring to adopt a low profile aware that the rally participants were highly charged although organizers repeatedly reminded people to ignore Indian vendors peddling their wares. Speakers were not just from the Kashmiri or Pakistani communities but also included such well-known Canadian society figures as Sid Ryan, former President Ontario Federation of Labor, Journalist Phil Taylor of the famous Taylor Report, Peace Activist Ken Stone, Karen Rodman of Just Peace Advocates and Human Rights Lawyer, Stephen Ellis. Framing it in the context of International law and based on UN Security Council resolutions, speakers repeatedly called upon the Canadian government to take a more forthright stand on the long-festering problem of Kashmir. Several speakers also highlighted the fact that with federal elections due in October, the question of Kashmir should be made a part of the election campaign. Rally participants were told that when candidates come knocking at your door seeking your vote, ask them about their stand on Kashmir. “If they don’t support the Kashmiris’ right to self-determination, tell them they will not have your vote,” said Zafar Bangash, Convener of the Friends of Kashmir Canada and one of the principal organizers of the rally. Ken Stone reminded rally participants that it was a retired Canadian general, Andrew MacNaughton who was instrumental in formulating the earlier Security Council resolutions. “Canada, therefore, has a moral and legal responsibility to fulfill its obligations in implementing the resolutions that it drafted.” Sid Ryan, the former Labor leader and now an accomplished author, called upon people to unite for justice and peace causes whether these relate to Kashmir or Palestine. Human Rights Lawyer Stephen Ellis said Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi should be investigated for war crimes, a sentiment echoed by another lawyer, Jatinder Singh, who is with the group, Sikhs for Justice. A number of young Kashmiri students among them Salma Khawaja, Khaoula Siddiqi, Shaheen Siddiqui, Ayesha Malik (not her real name because her parents are still in Srinagar and she managed to get out of there with the help of the Canadian High Commission staff in Delhi) and Mueen Hakak also spoke narrating passionate accounts of the suffering of the Kashmir people. There were also a number of speakers from the Sikh community that came to express solidarity with the people of Kashmir. Rally organizers vowed that the struggle for the rights of the Kashmiris will continue until they achieve their legitimate aspirations to hold a referendum as contained in a number of UN Security Council resolutions.

Saudi attack on Yemen condemned in Toronto: Peace and justice loving Canadians have not been swayed by the nasty propaganda of the Saudi regime and its supporters in the west that their attack on Yemen is justified. Instead, hundreds of people braved strong winds to denounce the illegitimate Saudi regime for its equally illegitimate war on the poor people of Yemen. There were also demands to put the Saudi rulers on trial for war crimes. Chanting slogans against the Banu Saud as well as their masters in Washington DC, the protesters demanded an immediate halt to attacks on the Yemeni people that have killed more than 2,600 civilians so far. They also demanded that humanitarian aid be provided to the people of whom more than 120,000 (according to UN figures) have been displaced from their homes since the Saudis and their allies launched their war of aggression on March 26. There were also repeated calls for putting Saudi rulers on trial for war crimes since Yemen has not attacked Saudi Arabia. Further, it is not the people of Yemen that have attacked Saudi Arabia, but the illegitimate regime of the Najdi Bedouins that has attacked the poorest Arab country in the region. Speakers included Ken Stone from the Hamilton Coalition to Stop the War, Sid Lacombe of the Canadian Peace Alliance, Dave Mckwee of the Toronto Coalition to the Stop the War, Zafar Bangash Director Institute of Contemporary Islamic Thought and Maulana Zaki Bakri of Al Mahdi Centre. Protest Rally was organized by the Canadian Peace Alliance and Toronto Coalition to Stop the war and supported by many Christian, Jewish and Islamic groups.

Resolution Presented by Shia Muslim Protesters to Consulate General of Pakistan Toronto

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH THE MERCIFUL THE BENEFICENT The Consulate General of Pakistan Toronto, ON PROTEST MEMORANDUM We, as Pakistanis, condemn the Official Visit of Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia to Pakistan and disassociate ourselves from his criminal acts around the globe. We demand the Govt of Pakistan to not welcome Aal e Saud criminals in Pakistan, rather there should be a protest against his inhumane acts as; 1. Aal e Saud, from the very beginning till now has been disrespecting Islam by demolishing the graves of Holy Ahlulbayt (as) and Sahaba (ra) 2. Saudi Arabia is directly involved in the killings of innocent human beings in Yemen, Syria, Iraq etc. 3. Saudi Arabia has been constantly targeting Shias of Alqateef Province 4. Basic human rights of everyone has been constantly violated in Saudi Arabia 5. Freedom of Speech is completely banned in Saudi Arabia 6. Saudi Arabia is directly responsible for destroying Muslim Unity and is especially backing extremist banned outfits in Pakistan 7. It has been witnessed that Hujjaj at the Shrine of Rasoolallah (saww) have been ridiculed and abused by extremist Wahhabi Mullahs on Govt payroll and has become a routine There should have been a protest against the heinous crimes committed by Aal e Saud especially Bin Salman, not a warm welcome. Seems as if the Govt of Pakistan is following the foot steps of Saudi Arabia by banning the protests against Bin Salman’s visit to Pakistan. Islamic Republic of Pakistan has already suffered in the so called ‘Afghan Jehad’ because of Aal e Saud and till today the nation is paying the price. Therefore, Pakistan should not take part in any of Saudi Global Destructive agenda anymore. Quad e Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah (ra) founded Pakistan so that it becomes exemplary for the rest of Umma, not a play ground for Saudi Wahhabi Extremist Aal e Saud Regime. Now, being patriotic Pakistanis we have our apprehensions that in the past Saudi ‘Riyal’ has got Pakistanis killed, therefore, we demand a transparency in the use of funds given to Pakistan and that there is no hidden/sectarian agenda behind it. May our beloved mother land Islamic Republic of Pakistan be safe and prosperous till the day of Judgement. Amin. Pakistan Zinda Bad … Hay’at Ulama e Shia (Pakistan) Toronto

Now, being patriotic Pakistanis we have our apprehensions that in the past Saudi ‘Riyal’ has got Pakistanis killed, therefore, we demand a transparency in the use of funds given to Pakistan and that there is no hidden/sectarian agenda behind it.

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH THE MERCIFUL THE BENEFICENT The Consulate General of Pakistan Toronto, ON PROTEST MEMORANDUM We, as Pakistanis, condemn the Official Visit of Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia to Pakistan and disassociate ourselves from his criminal acts around the globe. We demand the Govt of Pakistan to not welcome Aal e Saud criminals in Pakistan, rather there should be a protest against his inhumane acts as; 1. Aal e Saud, from the very beginning till now has been disrespecting Islam by demolishing the graves of Holy Ahlulbayt (as) and Sahaba (ra) 2. Saudi Arabia is directly involved in the killings of innocent human beings in Yemen, Syria, Iraq etc. 3. Saudi Arabia has been constantly targeting Shias of Alqateef Province 4. Basic human rights of everyone has been constantly violated in Saudi Arabia 5. Freedom of Speech is completely banned in Saudi Arabia 6. Saudi Arabia is directly responsible for destroying Muslim Unity and is especially backing extremist banned outfits in Pakistan 7. It has been witnessed that Hujjaj at the Shrine of Rasoolallah (saww) have been ridiculed and abused by extremist Wahhabi Mullahs on Govt payroll and has become a routine There should have been a protest against the heinous crimes committed by Aal e Saud especially Bin Salman, not a warm welcome. Seems as if the Govt of Pakistan is following the foot steps of Saudi Arabia by banning the protests against Bin Salman’s visit to Pakistan. Islamic Republic of Pakistan has already suffered in the so called ‘Afghan Jehad’ because of Aal e Saud and till today the nation is paying the price. Therefore, Pakistan should not take part in any of Saudi Global Destructive agenda anymore. Quad e Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah (ra) founded Pakistan so that it becomes exemplary for the rest of Umma, not a play ground for Saudi Wahhabi Extremist Aal e Saud Regime. Now, being patriotic Pakistanis we have our apprehensions that in the past Saudi ‘Riyal’ has got Pakistanis killed, therefore, we demand a transparency in the use of funds given to Pakistan and that there is no hidden/sectarian agenda behind it.
