Irans hosting the 37th International Islamic unity conference in his address to the gathering, president ibrahim raisi urged muslim unity and resistance in the face of enemy plots. He also warning in. Any compromise and reconciliation, weve discussed that in our news review program. You to press time now for the news review. Of iranian president rais has called for unity among muslims slamming any divisisive move in the muslim world as a line with enemys objectives. The president told the 37th of International Islam unity conferenceran that palestine remains the main issue of the islamic world and rallying point for muslims. He called for supporting palestinian resistance, taking a swipe at attempts to normalize relations with israel. Race is said that those attempts are being pushed by enemies puppets. The president noted that the us and israel are waiting a hybrid war on muslims by backing various crimes and insulting moves against muslim sanctities. He said however that muslims should Work Together and use their potential to secure their place in the emerging. The world order. Now to discuss this, im inviting two guests to join me in our studio, director of the institute of contemporary islamic thought in torana. Coordinator of the zack foundation in south africa, cape town. Good to see you both gentlemen, now mr. Bangash, lets have your comments on how urgent this muslim unity that irans president is talking about and encouraging to see further is at this juncture in time and so lets also talk a little bit about the conspiracies and plots and also we have number of you know sacriligious moves like the quran burnings thats happened several times in europe whats going on in the world and also as regards muslims and islamophobia thats underway well muslim unity is a selfevident truth. There is an imparative need for a muslims to unite in order to confront the many challenges that they face and as president rais pointed out very clearly and very eloquently in his address to the 37th muslim unity conference in tehran that palestine remains the topmost priority for the entire muslim um and we can understand and why . Because palestine is occupied by the zionist invaders, they are held bent on desecrating not only the masjid alaqsa, but they have plans. To destroy and so it is absolutely essential for muslims to unite in order to defend and liberate their first kibla and their third holiest side. At the same time we see this wave of islamophobia and hatred being perpetrated against the muslims, whether it relates to the repeated burnings of the quran or while cartoons against the prophets. And these are all meant to insult muslims, to humiliate them and to denigrate them, and this requires muslim unity to confront, when we see look around the world, there are countries that are united that have very little in common except their interests, if they can do so, why cant the muslims . There are almost 57 or 58 muslim countries in the world, if they were to be truly united, at least on one particular point and that is the issue of palest. And alquds, think muslims can achieve lot more than what they have been able to do so far, and that would also undermine and demolish the plots of the enemies of islam to keep the muslims divided. Mr khaddafi, lets have also your comments regarding the enemies hybrid war and how to address that issue, we have one minute, yes of course, i think at this time we see the failure of the west in eradicates. Islam in defeating muslim nations like the islam republic of war, invasions, military interventions, sanctions, political interventions, un resolutions, all kinds of other tricks to defeat the Islamic Republic of iran and those aligned with the principles of al islam and principles of liberation for the oppressed, we see their warfare tactics has failed, and therefore they have employed this latest tactic of the. Hybrid warfare, but of course within the republic of iran there are thinks, within his think tax, within the various factions of the resistance, the tanks that are developing ways for us to counter the hybrid w and like brother said, there is social media, there is various other means which are using, and of course like before, the west is failing, islam is the first growing religion, more and more people in the global show are becoming aware of the. Reality of islam and for the necessity of liberating the oppressed and opposing western hegemony. For the contribution. Canada. In capetown south africa. Thank you for watching this episode the news review. Well come back. Lets go on more than two years after the chaos. And deadly us withdrawal from afghanistan, washington continues to use the country as a platform to destabilize regional countries, that according to irans special representative for afghanistan. Even though the americans have left afghanistan, continuing their mischief, support for daesh terrorism is still on the agenda, saw the issues of instability and insecurity, making the conditions in afghanistan, cause of concern for regional countries is still on the agenda. He said that the us and its allies destroyed a countrys security foundations and economic infrastructure.

A year ago, horrific attack on the kat Educational Center, west of kabul killed dozens of people and wounded more than hundred. Now most of the victims were students uh from the shiai hazar community who have been repeatedly triggeted by daesh terrors. Group, a correspondent has report, this is where a suicide bomber from the daish terrorist group detinated his explosives last year, turning this large classroom of the kach Education Center into a blood bath. 57 people died and more than 100 others were injured, mostly female students. One year on the families and friends of the victims have gathered here to remember their lost loved ones and share their stories of grief and anguish. They are still morning and suffering from the consequences of that tragic day. Last year on this day i lost my beloved classmates forever and witnessed their dead bodies fallen on the floor, this whole year i lived with the memory i had made with them and the tragedy of their martterdom. I was wondering how to live with the pain of our lost dreams and hopes every second i missed them and this whole year was as devastating the families of the victims say they have not received any justice for their loss. They urged the taliban government to bring the perpetrators the justice and to provide safe environment for shih hazarras to exercise their rights. As i call on the defacto government to bring to justice and punish the terrorists who killed our daughters at Educational Centers. Our students are the assets of the Afghan Nation and should not be ignored. All afghans are right. With physical and psychological injuries, they are still undergoing treatment and therapy, hoping to resume their normal life and education. After i was discharged from hospital, my physical injuries slightly healed, but my psychological wounds didnt. Since then ive been depressed and shocked. I cant socialize or go out with friends. Im seeing a therapy and i hope this will help me get back to my normal life and continue my education. The شیa hazar community which has faced decades of diskrimination and persecution in afghanist has been repeatedly targeted by daesh and other extremist groups in recent years. Today they want justice, peace and security. This is a day of remembrance and solidarity for the victims and also families of the Educational Center attack. This is also a day of defiance and determination for the sha hazar people who refuse to give in to terror hatred. Press tv, now this week muslims around the world including pakistan are celebrating.

Russian official warning the uk against deploying instructors to ukraine saying they would become. Chairman of russian Security Council said that instructors will not be considered mercenaries but as british nato specialists earlier comments by the British Defense secretary, grand shapset said the uk is planning to send my instructors to ukraine. British prime minic road back from the ministers comments saying that there were no such immediate plants. Midavet also point to bs expect a delivery of longrange touris missiles to kiev. He said in that case strikes on german factories where those missiles are made would be in full compliance with international law. The us a government down has been temporal avoided but it still doesnt reflect well on the countrys economy as a whole. Strikes have gripped the nation across different sectors including most recently and the autoindust and that will bankrupcies and poverty have also increased dramatically. Twothirds being in the affirmative, the rules are suspended, the bill is passed, and with that objection the motion to reconsider is laid on the table. A Us Government shut down narrowly averted this extension was more of bandade since theres a strong possibility that lawers will find themselves battling it out. In 45 days when the deadline arrives. However, what things the us govern spends its money on has an overlooked, which ironically should be the focus. Just take a look at these eye popping figures. If there was a shutdown, soldiers would not get paid, and the ones on the bottom half of the social strata, especially ones getting government assistance and social services would suffer. The government has averted a shutdown, but what about the wider us economy . News making headlines in the us are the autoworkers a strike which has expanded for the First Time Ever to include the detroit 3. The union and the automakers remain far apart on key Economic Issues like pay. Were not out here to grab headlines you know this this isnt fun to us, not out here just for the heck of it, were out because gm and the three companies screwed around over seven weeks and didnt get into bar with this. Matter is that you guys, uaw you saved the automobile back in 2008 and before a lot of sacrifice, but automakers did not reciprocate. Since 2013, they have raked in 250 billion in profits. Thats 1. 7 million that they made off each worker. Meanwhile, these are their ceos salaries. Ford ceo, jim farley amounts 21 million per year. Stalanta ceo. 25 million per year, and general motor ceo mary bara who said she was extremely frustrated and disappoint by the strike, she makes 29 million per year, one automaker sumed it up perfectly. I think people all around the country here are just getting fed up with corporations not sharing or including them into the profit or acknowledging our hard work that we put into the company. The stats confirm that sentiment. Between 1979 and 2022, the inflation adjusted and wages of top 1 workers rose by 145 , while the average annual wages of the bottom 90 rose by only 16 . Now besides autowers, hundreds of thousands of other us employees have also walked off their jobs this year and industry of all types. Now that includes hollywood, starbucks and amazon as well as frontline workers like. Nurses, hotel staff and pilots. In july, the Package Delivery company ups narrowly averted a strike that would have been the largest in us history. Workers keep fighting for some rights, fair wages, increased safety and job security. In the us, while the number of strikes is relatively unchanged. The number of striking workers has beat prior years. Some 362,00 workers have gone a strike so far in 2023, compared with 36,600 over the same period 2 years ago. Job security should be a concern for americans. Corporate bankrupcies have soored to a 13year high. The workers on strike, like many other americans, complain that the wages have not kept up with inflation. The official inflation rate in the us for 2023 reported. Be 3 with the pay increase to 5 outstripping inflation, but that does not match american is facing when it comes to things like groceries, energy, transportation, travel, dining. Just take a look at these figures in this table, showing the types of inflation that americans faced in 2022. Although inflation has decreased in 2023, is not the 5 that the Us Government has announced across the board. Perhaps that is why the u. S. Is experiencing increase in poverty, which in 2022 was 12. 4 , thats an increase of 4. 6 Percentage Points from 2021. And in terms of Food Assistance, another shocking figure, 41. 2 million americans, 12. 5 of the total Us Population received monthly snap benefits in the 202 fiscal year. The us makes around 6. 3 trillion dollars in income, and believe it or not, spends half of that amounts on entitle programs like Food Assistance and benefits. This doesnt sound like very healthy economy.
