In the US, hundreds are killed every week by homicide--for no crime, no reason--not at the hands of police, as US police brutality is a separate issue. The accessibility of guns leads to a greater homicide rate; it has created problems for a country like U.S.; everyone admits, fears, and is concerned about it [the gun crises]. No one dares to apply a clear solution to the problems that arise from guns and leads to homicide in America. What's the solution? It's to make gun accessibility illegal. Gun companies are so powerful that House of representatives and U.S. senators do not dare prohibit guns, and U.S. president does not dare speak out or rise against it.--This is an example of corruption. Corruption means domination of a mafia that is greedy for power and wealth, in a way that a political and military system like the U.S. will not to dare stand up and allow the prohibition of guns—which is clearly a positive solution. This negligence is due to lack of spiritual thought, leading western societies to this low point. If we want the country, the nation, the human society to achieve bliss, the way to obtain it is to prefer religious and divine ideals to all other ideals. This should influence our economy. This should impact our scientific works.
Today, the issues surrounding weapons and military expenses are the most tragic for people throughout the world. Today, weapons factories around the world build all kinds of weapons to make money off of them. They ignite wars around the world, leading people to kill one another, and pit governments against one another. They [Countries who thrive off of mass weapon production like U.S.] make their threats so that they can satisfy and accomplish their treacherous, greedy, and malevolent desires.
Therefore, as long as superpowers pull the strings attached to the globe, wars will never come to an end. Waging war has become a source of materialistic interests for the superpowers. Such wars are not waged on the path of justice. The Americans and others say that they wage wars in order to provide security: this is a lie!--This is not the truth of the matter; it is the exact opposite of what they [U.S., "Israel"] claim. Wherever they show their military presence and wherever they deploy their troops, they cause insecurities, commit injustices, and make life, overall, difficult for people.
Since modern technologies and weapons emerged, the lives of so many people have come under severe pressure. Official and global reports reveal that the world did not witness wars for merely three weeks out of 45 years since the end of the Second World War until the year 1990 of the Christian calendar--this era is known as the Cold War Era. Throughout these 45 years, there have been various wars in different parts of the world. Who has instigated these wars? Those who build weapons have waged these wars.
The military expenses that superpowers incur are among the most unbelievable expenses. According to their own figures, the government of USA spent 600 billion dollars on their military last year. Today, we witness that these expenses are allocated towards wars in our neighbouring countries. These expenses are allocated to Afghanistan with the purpose of suppressing the Muslim people of that country. These expenses are allocated to Iraq with the purpose of establishing full control over the people of Iraq. These expenses are allocated to helping the evil Zionist regime and to keeping the Middle East in a tumultuous situation forever. Today, corrupt powers are moving in this direction. Islam fights against and opposes such people.
Those people, whose interests lie in making Muslim peoples and governments fight against, hate, and fear one another, and in making them view one another as threats, are people who think the maintenance of their power depends on waging wars. For them, war is a gateway for their looting. Why should all the resources of nations be allocated towards buying and producing expensive weapons? It is because the owners of major weapons companies can earn more money and take more joy from their lives by producing weapons. This is a taghuti, ignorant, and dangerous system which has, unfortunately, dominated the lives of the people who live far from the path of monotheism.
This system will definitely not survive because it is against truth and because it is evil and bound to perish: "Truth has arrived, and evil perished: for evil is bound to perish by nature" [The Holy Quran, 17: 81]. Evil means things which are against divine tradition and creation. Evil is bound to perish, and it is not eternal. One can see the signs of this destruction. When we look at global conditions, we see the signs of this destruction.
Today, the situation has changed around the world: Nations have awakened. Fortunately, Muslims benefit from this awakening more than any other people. Muslim people and Islamic governments are coming to understand the significance and greatness of Islam and the greatness of this reliable and dependable source of support.
Today, Islamic Awakening, within the world of Islam, has led global powers to lose the amount of power that they had in the past. Today, America's conditions have changed compared to the past. The countries which are most powerful after the USA have the same conditions, and this is clear. Muslims should appreciate the value of the monotheistic path, and they should believe in divine promises. Today, Muslims' happiness lies in becoming united around the pivot of Islam.
