Future of Israel and Palestinian Perspectives

Fifty years have passed since the founding of the State of Israel in 1948, and

fifty years since the establishment of this state.

What is your vision for its future?

I say that Israel was founded on injustice and usurpation,

so every entity founded on injustice and usurpation is destined for

destruction.

Even if it possesses the power needed to survive.

Power does not last, I said. I said that power in the world does not

last forever. A child starts out as a child, then becomes

an adolescent, then an adult, then middle-aged, then old.

That is how states are, that is the lifespan of states. They begin,

and begin, and eventually end in extinction. There is no escaping it.

And what stage is Israel at now?

I say that Israel will perish, God willing, in

the first quarter of the coming century. Specifically, I

say that by 2027, Israel will no longer

exist.

Why this date?

Because I believe in the Holy Quran.

The Quran tells us that generations change every forty years.

In the first forty years, we had the Nakba.

In the second forty years, we began an intifada, confrontation, defiance,

fighting, and bombs.

The third forty will be the end, God willing. Exalted be He.

So this is an assessment based on…

This is a Qur’anic insight.

A Qur’anic insight.

Why did our Lord leave the Children of Israel for forty years?

To replace the sick, weary generation with a generation of fighters.

Our initial view is that the Nakba produced a generation of stones and bombs.

And the next generation will be the generation of liberation, God willing. Exalted be He.

How do you see the future, Sheikh Ahmed Yassin?

I say our path is difficult. It requires sacrifices

and patience, but the future is ours, God willing.

It is inevitably coming.

God’s promise never fails. God never breaks His promise.

Despite the despair gripping people.

This despair has no value to those who do not steer

the ship.

If those steering the ships

do not despair and persist in their steps,

then the street will always go, walk, and run

after you wherever you lead it.

I draw insight from the Holy Qur’an, as it says about Medina,

“You did not think they would leave.” The Muslims did not think they could.

They would seize them, and they thought their fortresses would protect them from God.

Those people take pride in their strength. The Muslims say, perhaps we can…

And that is the reality now. It is true that our الأمة is capable of liberating

Palestine.

We doubt ourselves, our potential, our abilities, and our future.

They say, "We possess the greatest international wealth."

"Who can stand against us?" They take pride in their strength, while we are afraid of

our weakness. But God's will prevails.

The hour will come when this entity collapses in

the blink of an eye.

Corruption does not endure on Earth. The Holy

Quran has decreed that they spread corruption on Earth, that they

tear apart values on Earth, and God prevails over

His affair, but most people do not know.
