How to rescue the Muslim community from their loyalty to the Christians?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward our Shaykh with the best reward for the questions.
He says: May Allah benefit you, O honorable Shaykh. When we attend such gatherings and hear your words about the Christians and the Jews, our faith, loyalty, and disavowal of the enemies of Allah increase. But we see our children being raised on the opposite, and we see many Muslims being raised on the loyalty of those people through the films they watch, which dazzle the minds until the minds of children become attached to those disbelievers, so they fear them and are afraid of them. So what is your comment, may Allah guide you, and what is the way to rescue the Muslim community from such a thing?

The Shaykh : What the questioner mentioned is a real matter. There are Muslims who do not disavow the polytheists, and even if they disavow them with their tongues, they do not disavow them with their hearts; they love them and show loyalty to them. But Allah says in the Noble Qur'an:
You will not find a people who believe in Allah and the Last Day having affection for those who oppose Allah and His Messenger لا تَجِدُ قَوْماً يُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ يُوَادُّونَ مَنْ حَادَّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ
[Al-Mujadila 58:22]
And how can a person say that he is a believer in Allah and loves Allah while he loves the enemies of Allah?
"Do you love the enemies of the Beloved and claim *** love for Him? That is not possible"
Whoever loves the enemies of Allah is not a lover of Allah, and this is something innate in people; all nations are created with this nature. So beware of this stigma of loving the enemies of Allah, even if they excel in knowledge, excel in medicine, and excel in what benefits people, they are the enemies of the enemies, and they will never strive for the benefit of the Muslims. Rather, they strive to weaken the Muslims, divide the Muslims, and tear them apart, either explicitly or by implication.
As for what he pointed out regarding what is seen in films or heard, and that the young have become attached to it, this is a great calamity. It is obligatory for every person who fears Allah the Mighty and Majestic and fears the Day of Reckoning to protect his children from that, and to strictly prevent them from watching anything that undermines their creed and necessitates loyalty to the enemies of Allah, whatever the cost, because he is responsible for his children and his family. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
and a man is a guardian of his family and is responsible for his charges الرجل راع في أهله ومسئول عن رعيته
Sahih al-Bukhari 2751

Likewise, he must prevent them from what is seen in some indecent magazines that glorify what they claim are heroes, so the boy takes them and reads them, and his heart becomes attached to these people, and with that, he despises the Muslims and the religion they are upon.
