REPORT: ANTI-MUSLIM BIAS INCIDENTS JUMP 29 PERCENT
Total number of Muslim civil rights cases tops 1,900 in 2005
(WASHINGTON, D.C., 9/18/06) - A report released today by a prominent
national Islamic civil rights and advocacy group indicates an almost 30
percent increase in the total number of complaints of anti-Muslim bias
from 2004 to 2005.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations' (CAIR) report - the only
annual study of its kind - outlines 1,972 incidents and experiences of
anti-Muslim violence, discrimination and harassment in 2005, the highest
number of civil rights cases ever recorded in the Washington-based
group's annual report. (Hundreds of anti-Muslim incidents reported
immediately following the 9/11 attacks were detailed in a separate
report.) According to the study, called "The Struggle for Equality,"
that figure is a 29.6 percent jump over the preceding year's total of
1,522 cases.

Racist : Feds raid Southfield Muslim organization
SOUTHFIELD -- FBI agents from the Joint Terrorism Task Force raided the
Southfield offices of an American Muslim relief organization today, but
would not disclose the nature of the criminal investigation they were
conducting.
The FBI executed a search warrant at the offices of Life for Relief and
Development, located off 10 Mile Road, at about 9 a.m. and remained
there for several hours, FBI Special Agent Dawn Clenney said.
The reasons given to a federal judge to obtain the search warrant were
sealed and no arrests had yet been made. The search is "pertaining to a
criminal matter," Clenney said.

Islamophobia : An insufficient apology
When Pope Benedict recently delivered a lecture and managed to find the
time and space to take a swipe at Islam, the Prophet Mohammed and
effectively every Muslim, he must have expected the kind of reaction
that followed across the Muslim world. If he hadn't, then he has either
been on another planet these last few years or he shouldn't be in the
high position he is.
what makes the Pope's words even more incredible is that he conveniently
chose to ignore the reality that whilst the Catholic church was
cementing the barbarism of Europe's dark ages for centuries, in which
atrocities of unspeakable volumes within its lands and beyond were
committed under its very guise and with its blessings, the Muslim world
stretching from southern Europe to the far borders of China was busy
writing literature, philosophy, art, architecture, medicine, chemistry,
physics, biology, algebra and music.

A Question for the Pope: Was it Muhammad who was flying those Bombers
over Beirut?
Benedict quoted a medieval Catholic source on the violence of Islam's
Muhammad just a couple of weeks after the armies of Judaism bombed
Lebanon into the stone age for thirty-three days (a significant number
in the Kabbalah).
The greatest orgy of violence by the military of any religion since the
fruit of Bush's "Third Awakening Christianity" pummeled Iraq and
Afghanistan's cities and villages with bombs and bullets, was
perpetrated in Lebanon in July and August, with religious injunctions in
favor of the mass murder issued by Orthodox Israeli rabbis.
But Pope Benedict's stern admonition last week was directed not at them,
but only at the "violence of Muhammad." Excuse me, your ass-holiness,
but was it Muhammad who was flying those bombers over Beirut?

The Path from 9/11
There is little doubt that that the 9/11 commission report has become
the Warren commission report of our time - a fatally flawed official
examination that ended up raising more questions than it answered, owing
to a toxic brew of politics, partisanship, personal agendas and
presidential obstruction. Chairman Thomas Kean's recent paid involvement
with ABC's fictitious "historical" docudrama is but the latest reminder
that the 9/11 tragedy has yet to be investigated fully or fairly.

Why is Bush Admin so determined to use torture?
A lot has been written and said about President Bush’s demand that
Congress “clarify” the part of the Geneva Conventions that, in effect,
outlaws the use of torture under any circumstances.
We know that the world would see this action as a U.S. repudiation of
the rules that bind civilized nations. We also know that an
extraordinary lineup of former military and intelligence leaders,
including Colin Powell, have spoken out against the Bush plan, warning
that it would further damage America’s faltering moral standing, and end
up endangering U.S. troops.

The Kurds and the Jews have been in love for as long as there have been

middle of its second attempt (1991-) to establish an independent Kurdish
state after the first attempt (1965-75) failed.
