Speaking to Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed, Lutfi added, “What saddens us is what is happening in Gaza in terms of the Zionist Nazi bombing, aggression, and brutal attacks on all the people of the Strip, including children and women. But the Resistance has no choice but to continue the battle, and we are of course going to achieve victory. The Resistance has not yet revealed all its cards!” anticipating that “if it opens the Northern Front – it will be the end of this Zionist Nazi entity!”
For instance, by cross-referencing the below May 1955 Dharma-Talk with the text of ‘Empty Cloud’ for that year – a more all-round picture can be built of exactly what was happening and how Master Xu Yun was reacting to it. To be clear, Master Xu Yun was adamant that an ordained Buddhist monastic must follow ALL the rules of the Vinaya Discipline and that a lay-person must follow a least five, eight or ten of the basic vows contained in the Vinaya Discipline. This is a practical distinction Master Xu Yun upheld – as he rejected the Japanese Zen tradition of monks being allowed to eat meat, drink alcohol and get married. Such individuals are ‘lay-people’ and NOT monks. This being the case, what is Master Xu Yun referring to when he states that there is ‘no difference’ between the ordained Sangha and the laity?
The death toll from Israeli strikes on the Gaza Strip and West Bank has totaled 1,448, while 6,868 others were wounded, according to the Ramallah-based Palestinian Health Ministry on Thursday night. Meanwhile, Israel’s public broadcaster Kan said the Israeli death toll had risen to more than 1,300.
Israel cut off its power supply to the Gaza Strip and ordered a complete siege on the Palestinian enclave, home to over 2.2 million people.
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) said on Thursday that at least 340,000 Palestinians have been displaced since the escalation on Saturday.
“The water crisis is looming in UNRWA shelters and throughout Gaza due to the lack of electricity needed to operate pumps and water desalination plants and the limited water supply in the local market,” added the UN agency.
Al-Taher added that the United States of America actually entered the war by encouraging this (fascist) Zionist aggression and providing all forms of military support to the Occupation. The Americans view these fascist (Zionist) criminals as heroes – such is their deficient attitude!
For his part, the Cuban Ambassador affirmed Cuba’s full support for the Palestinian people – who are waging a heroic battle to regain all their national rights, stressing the importance of the Unity of the Palestinian Factions in the face of aggression – and stressing that all free and honourable people in the world stand by the just struggle waged by the people of Palestine.
Pyongyang, October 6th, 2023 (KCNA) — Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un – on Thursday – received a floral basket from Mahmoud Abbas, the President of the State of Palestine, on the occasion of the 78th founding Anniversary of the Workers’ Party of Korea!
GAZA, Oct. 7 (Xinhua) — The death toll from Israeli airstrikes in Gaza has risen to 232, with 1,697 others injured, according to an update from the Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza on Saturday.
The airstrikes were carried out in response to an earlier rocket attack by the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas).
The Israeli military confirmed that Palestinian militants had launched almost 3,000 rockets against Israel, and dozens of militants had infiltrated southern Israel.
Hamas, the militant group that controls the Gaza Strip, claimed to have captured a number of Israeli officers and soldiers, adding that they are being held in “safe places.”
