Speaking on the occasion, Turabi said that it was the armed struggle of Islamic groups in Palestine especially the Hezbollah, Hamas and others that the issue of Palestine emerged as the international issue.
While giving his ultimate remarks on suggestions and recommendations about the way of resolving the issue of Palestine and riddance of the Israeli occupation, he vowed that only Jihad was the way to liberate the land of Palestine and Al-Quds.
He lauded the JI for playing its role for raising voice and causing different political parties to stand united on international issues particularly those that pertained to the Muslims across the world.
Al-Quds Association of Lebanon Leader Dr Haider said that the issue of Palestine was an international issue that called for immediate attention. He said that on more than 30 locations, the Israeli government had with force eliminated the signs of Islamic sacred importance. The Israeli government had with force deprived the Palestinians of their rights of potable water, food resources, health and education facilities and the Palestinians have been thrown into camp-life.
In-charge political wing of Hezbollah of Lebanon, Dr Ahmed Malli in his address said that the Pakistani nation had always supported the cause of liberation of the Palestine. He urged upon the political parties of Pakistan and the Pakistani people that they should press their government for raising voice against the tyranny of the Israeli forces onto the innocent Palestinians and for the resolution of the issue of Palestine.

Speaking on the occasion, JI Karachi chapter Ameer Muhammad Hussain Mahenti said that Palestine was the land of birth of several Messengers of Allah. The Israeli occupation over the land of Palestine led to genocide of Palestinians and they were the Palestinians that constituted a largest number of immigrants across the world only because of the barbaric cruelty of the Israeli troops.
Moatmar Allama-e-Islami leader Mir Nawaz Khan Marwat said that the state of Israel was recognised by Russia and other countries of the West amid a debate on the state of Israel.
