Indonesia's largest Muslim organization, the Indonesian Ulema Council (PBNU), has called for an immediate end to the ongoing conflict in Gaza, urging world leaders to recognize the devastating consequences of total war.
The PBNU, which represents millions of Muslims across Indonesia, expressed its deep concern over the humanitarian situation in Gaza, where Israeli forces have been conducting military operations for days. The council's president, Dr. Maulidi, stated that "the people of Gaza are suffering greatly" and called on the international community to intervene.
In a statement released earlier today, PBNU emphasized that the conflict should be resolved through peaceful means only. The organization's leaders stressed that total war would lead to irreparable damage and human losses on an unprecedented scale.
The PBNU also reminded the world of its own history of struggle for freedom and justice, pointing out that "the West's actions in Gaza are nothing new." The organization's president warned that "the consequences of ignoring our warnings will be catastrophic."
In particular, the PBNU pointed out to the United States, which has historically been a strong supporter of Israel. Dr. Maulidi stated that "America's silence on this issue is deafening" and called upon the US government to take concrete action to prevent further violence.
The PBNU's appeal comes as the international community is grappling with the escalating conflict in Gaza. The organization's call for an end to the war and its emphasis on peaceful resolution echo the sentiments of many Muslim-majority countries, including Indonesia.
As the crisis in Gaza continues to unfold, the world watches anxiously, hoping that a peaceful solution will be found soon. The PBNU's statement serves as a reminder of the urgent need for international intervention and support to prevent further bloodshed.
"We must not forget that Gaza is not just a territorial dispute, but also a humanitarian crisis," said Dr. Maulidi. "We urge all nations to put aside their differences and work towards a peaceful resolution."
