Senator Sehar Kamran said that we don’t condemn this US decision to move embassies but categorically reject it as Jerusalem belongs to the Muslims. She stated that today Muslim Ummah needs a visionary leader like Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto who can guide the Ummah in these turbulent times.
She called for the unity of Muslim countries and said we must protest peacefully, as nothing will be gained if we start destroying our own property. We need to protest smartly, she added.
