Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Worse than cattle poem

2006-09-13 Thread Showkat Ali



Salaams This is my first collaboration and alh i think it came out quite well. If anyone else would like to do a poem/rap with me then please either email me or send me a personal message. As usual please feel free to publish, post, forward and circulate as widely as possible.It is my kind request that you send me the link to where you have posted/published it.Jzk in advance.Worse then cattleI see people sitting on the train and reading the newspaper,Going on their journey as life passes them by,For a single ticket they paid the cost,But for the existence of God its kinda medieval, they would never give it a seconds thought,  We are all living in times of struggle and striving to survive the best we canHolding onto the deen is like a hot piece of coalMost of us are spiritually dead even though we see the signs all around us and in our
 bodies,Its Allah that we are denying,  We are still breathing by time,Allah is giving you the chance to get to know him,But most are unthankful and wasting their time  Religion being blamed for the worlds problems,Secularism rules the worldPut religion in the masjid and let limited humans make the laws.But what about the way we are living?  Are we slaves to the almighty or to what the almighty made?  Acquiring too much material, we’ve denied ourselves the spiritual aspects of being human,Lowering ourselves like that of cattle,We eat, breathe, S**t, have kids and prattle on thru lifeAnd that’s as far as it goes,Our morals have all changed,Right is wrong and wrong is rightPeople scared to speak the truth against immorality for fear of being labelled Extremist, fantatic and fundamentalist.We’re going through changing lives, and being changed
 mentally by the society and mass propaganda machine.When a kid turns into an adult,Those are the most challenging of times,But ask yourselves is this test too much for you to handle?We’re all in a line to drink from ignorance’s cup,Even though we don’t know we’re in queue,  We standing in order,Ready to lose our religion,Like cattle being sent to the slaughter  We’ve lost ourselves to ourselves,Now people don’t wanna be role models,Its all about me , myself and IThey wanna be gay or sado-masochistsAnd other perversionsIt’s all about originality and moving boundaries further and furtherTrying to be different even if its means being pervertedWomen are free to make a choice to abort or have that B*D kid, and they don’t even know who the daddy isEeni meeni mini mo.And now we dealing with wars,Based on sexed up dossiers and liesDoes anybody knows
 what the truth is or caresOn the poor the governments dropping tons of A-Bombs and napalmCausing mass death in the 21st century,Crime, sexual immorality, poverty,Greed, lust, power, death, destruction, carnage,For those like cattle, oppression is widespread,But most can’t see it and follow blindly   A world with 3.5 billioon corpses walking aroundBecause the difference between the believer and the disbeliever is like the living and the dead,The difference between the believer and the disbeliever is like having knowledge and being ignorant,The difference between the believer and the disbeliever is like moving forward and staying behind,The difference between the believer and the disbeliever is like being able to see and being blind,The difference between the believer and the
 disbeliever is like living free or wanting suicide,The difference between them and us is that they are dying to live but we’re living to dieChorusDeaf, dumb and blindTotally out of their mindsSpaced out on freedom Can’t get enuff Losing their religion bit by bitUntil all that remains is just the name and the circumcisionThey must be insane Losing everything and gaining nothing  Deaf, blind and dumbWhat more can I sayI cant give them my thumbs upCoz they act so dumbFollowing the disbelievers Seeking crumbs from his tableSlave to his ideologyIgnorant of Islam’s superiorityUnaware of kufrs inferiorityYeah their in mental slaveryBlind, dumb and deafWith every stepGoing the wrong directionDeeper and deeper with satan as their guideFeel sorry for them on

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Liberating America From Israel by Paul Findley, former US Congressional Rep

2006-09-13 Thread Susan Howard-Azzeh



  Liberating America From IsraelThis essay was issued on Sept. 12, 2002.By Paul Findley (pictured) Nine-eleven would not have occurred if the U.S. government had refused to help Israel humiliate and destroy Palestinian society. Few express this conclusion publicly, but many believe it is the truth. I believe the catastrophe could
 have been prevented if any U.S. president during the past 35 years had had the courage and wisdom to suspend all U.S. aid until Israel withdrew from the Arab land seized in the 1967 Arab-Israeli war. The U.S. lobby for Israel is powerful and intimidating, but any determined president — even President Bush this very day — could prevail and win overwhelming public support for the suspension of aid by laying these facts before the American people: Israel's present government, like its predecessors, is determined to annex the West Bank — biblical Judea and Samaria — so Israel will become Greater Israel. Ultra-Orthodox Jews, who maintain a powerful role in Israeli politics, believe the Jewish Messiah will not come until Greater Israel is a reality. Although a minority in Israel, they are committed, aggressive, and influential. Because of deep religious conviction, they are determined to prevent Palestinians from gaining statehood on any part of the West Bank.
 In its violent assaults on Palestinians, Israel uses the pretext of eradicating terrorism, but its forces are actually engaged advancing the territorial expansion just cited. Under the guise of anti-terrorism, Israeli forces treat Palestinians worse than cattle. With due process nowhere to be found, hundreds are detained for long periods and most are tortured. Some are assassinated. Homes, orchards, and business places are destroyed. Entire cities are kept under intermittent curfew, some confinements lasting for weeks. Injured or ill Palestinians needing emergency medical care are routinely held at checkpoints for an hour or more. Many children are undernourished. The West Bank and Gaza have become giant concentration camps. None of this could have occurred without U.S. support. Perhaps Israeli officials believe life will become so unbearable that most Palestinians will eventually leave their ancestral homes. Once beloved worldwide, the U.S. government
 finds itself reviled in most countries because it provides unconditional support of Israeli violations of the United Nations Charter, international law, and the precepts of all major religious faiths. How did the American people get into this fix? Nine-eleven had its principal origin 35 years ago when Israel's U.S. lobby began its unbroken success in stifling debate about the proper U.S. role in the Arab-Israeli conflict and effectively concealed from public awareness the fact that the U.S. government gives massive uncritical support to Israel. Thanks to the suffocating influence of Israel's U.S. lobby, open discussion of the Arab-Israeli conflict has been non-existent in our government all these years. I have firsthand knowledge, because I was a member of the House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee in June 1967 when Israeli military forces took control of the Golan Heights, a part of Syria, as well as the Palestinian West Bank and Gaza.
 I continued as a member for 16 years, and to this day maintain a close watch on Congress. For 35 years, not a word has been expressed in that committee or in either chamber of Congress that deserves to be called debate on Middle East policy. No restrictive or limiting amendments on aid to Israel have been offered for 20 years, and none of the few offered in previous years received more than a handful of votes. On Capitol Hill, criticism of Israel, even in private conversation, is all but forbidden, treated as downright unpatriotic, if not anti-Semitic. The continued absence of free speech was assured when those few who spoke out — Senators Adlai Stevenson and Charles Percy, and Reps. Paul "Pete" McCloskey, Cynthia McKinney, Earl Hilliard, and myself — were defeated at the polls by candidates heavily financed by pro-Israel forces. As a result, legislation dealing with the Middle East has been heavily biased in favor of Israel and against Palestinians and
 other Arabs year after year. Home constituencies, misled by news coverage equally lop-sided in Israel's favor, remain largely unaware that Congress behaves as if it were a subcommittee of the Israeli parliament. However, the bias is widely noted beyond America, where most news media candidly cover Israel's conquest and generally excoriate America's complicity and complacency. When President Bush welcomed Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, sometimes called the Butcher of Beirut, as "my dear friend" and "a man of peace" after Israeli forces, using U.S.-donated arms, completed their devastation of the West Bank last spring, worldwide anger against American policy reached the boiling point. The fury should surprise no one who reads foreign newspapers or listens

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Who Is Imam al-Mahdi? Courtesy:http://www.islamicweb.com/history/mahdi.htm

2006-09-13 Thread Abdul Wahid Osman Belal



  Who Is Imam al-Mahdi?I'm writing this document as a respond to requests from many Muslims and non-Muslims. I found many documents about this subject that contains a lot of false Hadeeths. This document is a result for a long research in evaluating every Hadeeth (true or false). Arabic version is also availavble.   The term "MAHDI" is a title meaning "The Guided one". Mahdi is a normal man who is going to follow the true Islam. His name will be Muhammad and his father name will be 'Abdullah. He is a descendant from Ali and Fatima (daughter of the prophet Muhammad (pbuh)) so he will be descendant from al-Hasan or al-Husain. Mahdi will be very just and his capital will be Damascus. Allah told us that Jews will master the world two times (we live now 1998 during the first
 one) and Mahdi will appear between those two periods and will rule through the last one. Mahdi is NOT a prophet but he is the final Rightly Guided Khalifa. Mahdi will lead Muslims to a great victory against the Christian Romans (i.e. All the white Europeans including the Americans). This great war is called al-Malhamah al-Kubrah or Armageddon. It will end up with a great victory to Muslims against Romans after six years. Muslims will take over their capital Rome (this can be any city). In the seventh year, the Anticrist will apear and a greater war will start between Jews and Muslims for 40 days (longer that usual days) and will end when Jesus (pbuh) will come and Muslims will kill all Jews. All people will convert into Islam. Peace will pervade the whole world.   As Muslims, we should remember that the prophecy about Mahdi is one
 that will come to pass. This prophecy, however, does not absolve the Muslim Ummah from its duty to strive in the cause of Allah, oppose injustice, and seek peace and betterment of human condition. Centuries have passes from the time of the holy Prophet and there is a good possibility that many more will expire before the advent of the Mahdi. Muslims who are negligent in their duty hoping for a savior are committing a grave mistake and are not following the divine decrees ordained in Quran or taught by the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).Correct Hadeeths (AHadeeth SaHiHa)  Narrated Jabir ibn Samurah:The Prophet (pbuh) said: The religion will continue to be established till there are twelve caliphs (Khalifas) over
 you, and the whole community will agree on each of them. I then heard from the Prophet (pbuh) some remarks which I could not understand. I asked my father: What is he saying: He said: all of them will belong to Quraysh.   Disagreement will occur at the death of a caliph (khalifa) and a man of the people of Medina (Madina) will come flying forth to Mecca (Makka). Some of the people of Mecca will come to him, bring him out against his will and swear allegiance to him between the Corner and the Maqam. An expeditionary force will then be sent against him from Syria (Al-Sham) but will be swallowed up in the desert between Mecca and Medina. When the people see that, the eminent saints (Al-Abdal) of Syria and the best people of Iraq will come to him and swear allegiance to him between the Corner and the Maqam.Then there will arise a man of Quraysh whose maternal uncles belong to Kalb and
 send against them an expeditionary force which will be overcome by them, and that is the expedition of Kalb. Disappointed will be the one who does not receive the booty of Kalb. He will divide the property, and will govern the people by the Sunnah of their Prophet (pbuh) and establish Islam on Earth. He will remain seven years, then die, and the Muslims will pray over him.  An army would attack this House in order to fight against the inhabitants of this House and when it would be at the plain ground the ranks in the centre of the army would be sunk and the vanguard would call the rear flanks of the army and they would also be sunk and no flank would be left except some people who would go to inform them (their kith and kin).  Narrated Mustawrid al-Qurashi: I heard Allah's Apostle (pbuh) said: The Last Hour would come
 (when) the Romans would form a majority amongst people (This is exactly the situation today since Europeans and Americans are the largest group). Amr said to him (Mustawrid al-Qurashi): See what you are saying? He said: I say what I heard from Allah's Apostle (pbuh) Thereupon he said: If you say that, it is a fact for they have four qualities. (1) They have the patience to undergo a trial and (2) immediately restore themselves to sanity after trouble and (3) attack again after flight. (4) They (have the quality) of being good to the destitute and the orphans, to the weak and, fifthly, the good quality in them is that (5) they put resistance against the oppression of kings.  "You will invade the Arabian Peninsula and Allah will grant it (to you). Then (you will invade) Persia and Allah will grant it (to you). Then, you will invade Rome (the Romans) and Allah will grant it (to you). Then, you will invade The

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Woman who lost 8 relatives on 9/11 embraces Islam

2006-09-13 Thread G.Waleed Kavalec



Woman who lost 8 relatives on 9/11 embraces IslamBy Our Correspondenthttp://www.dawn.com/2006/09/12/top13.htmWASHINGTON, Sept 11: An American woman who lost eight relatives in the 9/11 attacks has embraced Islam. Elizabeth, now Safia Al Kasaby, 43, lives in Tampa, Florida. She is a former sergeant first class of the US Air Force National Guard. She lost one uncle and seven cousins in the attacks on the World Trade Center.
Her grandfather was a Jew and her grandmother was Catholic.Safia said that in 1997, nearly destitute, she approached a synagogue in North Tampa for help. Officials at the shul wanted to know if she was a member. She was not. They asked her if she was really Jewish. She became disillusioned and for eight years she did not participate in organised religion.
She found Islam in 2005 on the third day of a Moroccan vacation.At first, Safia's family didn't take her seriously and some colleagues at her banking job made fun of her new attire. She dared not pray at work.
Mostly, Safia kept her new faith at home, learning about her religion on web sites and Islamic chat rooms.After a meeting with an imam at the Islamic Society of Tampa Bay Area in June, Safia felt more at ease with her new faith. But some in her family are reluctant to accept her new faith. Her eldest daughter, Sylvia, wants little to do with her. A Baptist and young military widow, Sylvia berated Safia when she showed up at her husband's funeral wearing a hijab.
At home, Safia raises two daughters. Ten-year-old Natalia says her mother's religion is cool.Ada, 18, appreciates Safia's transformation and doesn't put up with people who make fun of Islam or stereotype Muslims. "I say, 'Wait a minute. My mom's a Muslim,'" Ada said. "She's not a terrorist."
Safia says she looks forward to the day when her religion is not an issue.-- -- G. Waleed Kavalec---... the Muslims were horrified to see the way Western Christians treated 
their women in the Crusader states, and Christian scholars denounced Islam for giving too much power to menials like slaves and women.-Karen Armstrong, Muhammad A Biography of The Prophet,  Harper Collins Publisher, USA, 1992, 
p.199

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] HAIZ AND SAUM (FASTING) (Islamic laws regarding purity for women)

2006-09-13 Thread Saba Khan
HAIZ AND SAUM (FASTING) (Islamic laws regarding purity
for women)

Masala 1.
Although fasting during ramazan remains obligatory
during haiz, a woman should not fast during the period
but it becomes compulsory for her to observe these as
qazaa fasts later on.

Masala 2.
If bleeding started while she was fasting, her fast
breaks even if there was a very little portion of the
fast still left. Since the fast is not valid it is
necessary for her to repeat it, whether it is fard or
nafl.

Masala 3.
If a woman starts menstruating on the day when she was
fasting, thereby causing her fast to break, she must
still not eat or drink anything on that day. It is
necessary for her to appear like others – as if she is
fasting.

Masala 4.
She should also not eat or drink on the day she
becomes pure (paak) from haiz and should also appear
as if she is fasting.

Masala 5.
If bleeding stops after subhe saadiq in Ramazan and
although she has not eaten anything, her fast is not
valid even if she makes an intention to fast. Qazaa
becomes necessary for that particular fast as she was
unclean for a certain period of the day.

Masala 6.
If bleeding continued for full 10 days and 10 nights
and stopped just before subhe saadiq, leaving no time
even to say takbire tahrima, then that particular fast
becomes compulsory for her. She should make an
intention to keep the fast. If however, bleeding stops
within ten days and ten nights and there is time for a
quick bath before subhe saadiq, then that fast becomes
compulsory; but if there is no time for a bath, then
it is not compulsory to fast that day. In case the
fast becomes compulsory, then she should make an
intention and keep the fast. It doesn’t matter if she
takes a bath later on.

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Hizbullah's hour--from al-ahram , cairo

2006-09-13 Thread S A Hannan







 

  
  

  
Hizbullah's hour
A sovereign Lebanon and national unity are high among 
Hizbullah's priorities in post-war Lebanon, Ali Fayad of Hizbullah's 
politburo tells Omayma 
Abdel-Latif in Beirut 



  
  
 Click to view 
  caption
  
A villager hands a soldier the national flag as 
  local army troops took position in the war-battered border town of 
  Bint Jbeil, near the Lebanese-Israeli border. Lebanese troops 
  should soon control their southern border for the first time in 
  decades. Bint Jbeil saw some of the fiercest fightings between 
  Israel and Hizbullah in the past two months. 
  

  

  Israel's 
  other war
  Commentary: 
  War stories
  

Recently prominent Lebanese writer Onsi Al-Haj wrote in his column in 
the daily Al-Akhbar newspaper; "One month after the Israeli war, 
the onus is now on Hizbullah. The party has one of two options: either 
it turns its achievement into a source of threat and intimidation for 
the rest of Lebanese society, or utilises it to rebuild national unity. 
It is a historic opportunity before Hizbullah, and we call upon it to 
make the utmost of it; not out of pity for Lebanon, but out of the 
heroism of the brave."
Al-Haj's words truly captured what many described as one of the 
biggest challenges that confronts Hizbullah which not only fought the 
most powerful army in the Middle East to a standstill but emerged 
victorious in the eyes of millions of Arabs, its enemies, and 
undoubtedly its Lebanese constituency.
Hizbullah's moment, both domestically and regionally, has arrived. 
But with it comes the heavy burden of introspection. Signs of this were 
apparent when a week ago Hizbullah's Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah 
admitted in a televised interview that had Hizbullah known beforehand of 
the human cost of the operation of capturing the two Israeli soldiers 
they would not have embarked on the operation. Many read this statement 
to mean that Hizbullah was acknowledging its miscalculation, which 
Nasrallah denied in an interview with As-Safir newspaper. 
While the defensive war against Israel may have ended, at least for 
now, the Islamic resistance movement continues a battle of a different 
kind on a number of fronts domestically. There is the issue of 
reconstruction, where the party wants to preserve the social fabric of 
the southern villages that constitute the bulk of its constituents. 
Meanwhile, the political battles in which the party is engaged with 
other Lebanese forces -- particularly those belonging to the 14th March 
alliance -- are not any less important than the actual conflict fought 
with the Israelis. Thus far, Hizbullah has avoided entering into a war 
of words that could exacerbate sectarian tension and has been working 
towards preserving national unity. 
Members of 14th March alliance, on the other hand, upped the ante in 
the past week with an escalation that reached unprecedented levels in 
the already strained relationship between it and Hizbullah, although 
both hold a place in the current Lebanese government. Accusations of 
Hizbullah being part of an Iranian- Syrian axis continued to be heard 
while at least one Christian politician, Dori Shamoun, accused Hizbullah 
of "seeking to establish an Islamist Shia state in Lebanon". 
Others called on Hizbullah to "enter the state" and drew a picture of 
Lebanon's Shia as being "a state within a state". Some even accused 
Hizbullah of wanting to capitalise on its victory over Israel to "turn 
against the current political formula that Lebanon has known since the 
implementation of the Taif Agreements in 1992". Sources close to 
Hizbullah spoke about attempts by political leaders within the 14th 
March alliance to create a schism within Lebanon's Shia to isolate 
Hizbullah from its main constituents. 
Speaking to Al-Ahram Weekly, Hizbullah sources say that 
domestic challenges faced by the party are massive in light of the 
polarisation currently taking root in Lebanese society. "There is an 
American-Israeli wish to see those divisions and political bickering 
exacerbated between us and the rest of the 14th March alliance," Ali 
Fayad, a member of Hizbullah's politburo, told the Weekly. Fayad 
said Hizbullah had already ignored many "insults" and

 shining dome and the first minaret in Minnesota.   "This will be the hopes, dreams and desires of many people," said Makram El-Amin, imam of Masjid An-Nur, during a groundbreaking ceremony outside the mosque's headquarters at 18th and Lyndale Avenues N. "Their efforts and legacy have powered us to move forward. This will be historic."   Last week, thousands attended a conference that accompanied the grand reopening at another Muslim institution, Abuubakar As-Sadique Islamic Center in south Minneapolis.   But that gathering was clouded by frustration that no arrests have been made in an arson two weeks earlier that destroyed several religious books.   These two events reflect the simultaneous hope and unease in the Twin Cities' growing Muslim community, nearly five years after the Sept. 11 attacks.   In the immediate aftermath of the terror attacks, some local Muslims found themselves the victims of random assaults and federal authorities shut down
 several money-wiring services used by Somalis and other immigrants. The scrutiny was intensified after revelations that Zacarias Moussaoui, the only man charged in connection with the attacks in New York and Washington, had been enrolled at an Eagan flight school.   Making progress   Since then, Muslim leaders in the Twin Cities say there has been some progress on both sides on outreach and understanding one of the world's fastest-growing religions.   "There has been some profound changes. The communication is far ... greater than five years ago," said Zafar Siddiqui, president of the Islamic Resource Group in Edina. "But there still is not a clear picture of who we are as a community."   Ibrahim Hooper, a spokesman with the Council of American-Islamic Relations, an advocacy group based in Washington, said Muslims across the country are expressing similar views.   "We have done surveys where participants say yes, there has been more
 tolerance," Hooper said. "But there's a certain percentage that say they've been discriminated against and a similar amount they've also experienced kindness.   "They balance each other out in a strange sort of way."   Siddiqui said about 100,000 to 150,000 Muslims live in Minnesota, many of them immigrants from Somalia. He said a sign of the community's growth is the mostly Somali-funded Abuubakar As-Sadique Center, which went from renting space near the University of Minnesota to its own building at 2834 13th Av. S.   Abdul Sugule, spokesman for Abbuubakar, said about 1,200 worshipers raised $2.5 million over seven years -- even during troubling times after the Sept. 11 attacks -- to convert a former 95,000-square-foot warehouse this spring into a site filled with colorful, lush rooms for prayers, meetings and ceremonies.   That's why many worshipers are disappointed, Sugule said, that authorities haven't made arrests in a recent arson fire that
 burned several copies of the holy Qur'an. Security cameras showed two men who may have carried out the act.   "Although we have received a lot of support from our neighbors and other organizations, we remain concerned," Sugule said.   "This is more than a mosque," said Mohammed Issa, a volunteer. "This is home."   Issa points out that congregants regularly sweep and clean a five-block radius near the mosque. They plan to hold an open house for neighbors to introduce themselves and their religion, which he says has similarities to Christianity.   Islam, he emphasizes, comes from the root word salama, which means to surrender to the will of Allah and to peace.   'Two main goals'

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] If human rightist succeeed then it should open the doors --

2006-09-13 Thread Shaikh Hyder



If the human rights activist inMunir's case win's, then it should pave the way for democracy and justice in Pakistan and other Muslim countries, where the thug rulers and dictators imposed by the West is ruining the culture of Islam and the Muslim civilizations.Present rulers are destroying the hopes of masses for education, job oppurtunitiesand all round progress for the future generations to come. Please read:   Garuda hit with action on murderFriday, September 08, 2006A 13 billion rupiah (HK$11.7 million) lawsuit has been filed in Jakarta against flag carrier Garuda
 Indonesia over the death of leading rights activist Munir.   As hundreds of supporters rallied Thursday to mark the second anniversary of his death aboard a flight to Holland, the lawsuit accused the airline and nine of its employees, including senior management and flight crew of negligence. "We are suing Garuda for their failure to protect their consumer, in this case Munir," said lawyer Mufti Makarim from the Munir-founded Kontras rights group.   Munir died in the business-class cabin of a Garuda flight before reaching Amsterdam on September 7, 2004. An autopsy in Holland found a lethal dose of arsenic in his blood.   Last year a Garuda pilot, Pollycarpus Priyanto, who was on the flight but off-duty, was jailed for 14 years after being found guilty of killing Munir by lacing his drink with arsenic. Very interesting discussion with blinders on the eyes. We live in a world which has Internal and External influences within any country. Just look at the record of Colonial powers who have been responsible in killing (estimated) not only 6 Million Jews but also close to 100 Million Muslims around the Globe in the past 20th Century. NowAmerica, alone has more than 750 Military bases(including 2 in Pakistan, and 14 new in Iraq, [manned with more than 1,367,357 (1999 figures) U. S. military personnel worldwide] but not including spy and Air-Force bases ) ONLY to control and steal the resources of the other peoples, specially Muslim world. In order to understand this justuse Google to search fora key word [Technology for Political Control] which will amaze you how
 thewolves under sheep skin are engaged in killingMuslims and destroying their Resources to keep them perpetually dependent on these CUNNING friends.   TAKE OFF THE BLINDERS ON YOUR EYES and WAKE UP! Rememberthat First we are Muslims and unless we UNITE, the wolves will attack us like the one Wolf sitting now in the World Bank!

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Starting Another War : NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF - Another Bush War More

2006-09-13 Thread MA PA



Starting Another War : NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF - Another Bush War  More  by NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF - The New York Times Tuesday Sep 12th, 2006   - Kristof: Another War - Let’s hope President Bush resists the siren calls of neocons who claim that a few air raids would make the Iranian nuclear menace disappear. - PLUS: Armed militants storm US Embassy in Syria - PLUS: AA employee, checked in Atta on 911, later commits suicide and more   OP-ED COLUMNIST Starting Another War By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF Published: September 12, 2006 It is quite possible that President Bush will bomb Iran’s nuclear installations over the next
 couple of years. Let’s hope he looks at how Israel shot itself in the foot in Lebanon this summer and resists the siren calls of neocons who claim that a few air raids would make the Iranian nuclear menace disappear. The argument Mr. Bush is hearing in favor of an airstrike is pretty simple: Iran is a terrorist regime that has sponsored attacks on Americans and on Jews (as far away as Argentina). The president of Iran is a hard-liner who has used language that, while subject to debate among Farsi speakers, may mean that his aim is to wipe Israel off the map.

The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all. [Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Minnesota Candidate Striving to Become First Muslim Elected to US Congress

2006-09-13 Thread Curtis Sharif



  Muslim Candidate Plays Defense  Written by washingtonpost.com  Monday, 11 September 2006  http://africanarabforum.net/mos/index.php?option=com_contenttask=viewid=1439Itemid=39Keith Ellison, running in Minnesota, would be the first Muslim to serve in Congress. He has had to defend past associations with the Nation of Islam. (By David Joles -- Star
 Tribune).  "Lead Shrinks as Minnesota Democrat Repudiates Association With Farrakhan"Keith Ellison is a Democrat running for an open House seat in a heavily Democratic district. But what once looked like a cakewalk has turned into a bruising campaign in which many facts are disputed but a central one is not: If he wins, he will be the first Muslim elected to Congress.  Before he can make history, Ellison must capture Tuesday's hotly contested Democratic primary in Minnesota's 5th Congressional District, which consists of the Minneapolis side of the Twin Cities and an inner ring of suburbs. Whoever gets the Democratic nomination is expected to sweep to victory in November to succeed Rep. Martin O. Sabo (D), who is retiring after 28 years in the House.Ellison, 43, is a two-term state legislator. He prays toward Mecca five times a day and says he has not eaten pork or had a drink of
 alcohol since he converted to Islam as a 19-year-old student at Wayne State University in Detroit. When speaking at mosques or to members of Minneapolis's large Somali immigrant population, he opens with "Salaam aleikum," Arabic for "Peace be with you."Other than that, he seldom refers to his religion on the campaign trail, unless asked.  "I'm a Muslim. I'm proud to be a Muslim. But I'm not running as a Muslim candidate," Ellison said during a break between a commemoration of Hurricane Katrina and an appearance at a public housing project. "I'm running as a candidate who believes in peace and bringing the troops out of Iraq now. I'm running as a candidate who believes in universal, single-payer health care coverage and an increase in the minimum wage."Despite Ellison's desire to focus on the war and the economy, questions about his faith and character have kept him on the defensive. 
   The most damaging accusations, says Christopher Gilbert, professor of political science at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minn., concern Ellison's past associations with the Nation of Islam and its leader, Louis Farrakhan.Although four Democrats are seeking the nomination, Ellison became the candidate to beat in May, when the state's Democratic-Farmer-Labor organization endorsed him.Within days, Michael Brodkorb, author of a Republican blog called MinnesotaDemocratsExposed.com, dug up two articles that Ellison had written under the name of Keith Hakim for the University of Minnesota student newspaper when he was in law school there in 1989 and 1990.  The first article defended Farrakhan against accusations of anti-Semitism. The second called affirmative action a "sneaky" form of compensation for slavery, suggesting instead that white Americans pay reparations to blacks.   
 Another conservative blog, PowerLineBlog.com, subsequently revealed that the candidate had used the names Keith X Ellison and Keith Ellison-Muhammed during his student days. In more than 20 Web postings titled "Who Is Keith Ellison?" PowerLine asserted that he had been a "local leader" of the Nation of Islam and accused him of "involvement" in anti-Semitism.  Badly stung, Ellison responded quickly. He met privately with key Jewish supporters, spoke publicly at a synagogue in the suburb of St. Louis Park and repudiated Farrakhan in a May 28 letter to the Jewish Community Relations Council in Minneapolis.While denying that he had ever joined -- much less led -- the Nation of Islam, he acknowledged that he had worked with the group for about 18 months to organize the Minnesota contingent to Farrakhan's 1995 Million Man March in Washington.In the letter to the council, he apologized for failing to
 "adequately scrutinize the positions" of Farrakhan and other Nation of Islam leaders. "They were and are anti-Semitic, and I should have come to that conclusion earlier than I did."In interviews on the campaign trail last week, Ellison said his attraction to Islam in the 1980s "had a political angle to it, a reaction against status quo politics."But he said he has stayed a Muslim, and grown in his faith, while his political outlook has moderated since he began practicing law, serving in the state legislature and raising four children with his wife, Kim, a high school math teacher who has multiple sclerosis.  When he was one of three blacks among 265 members of the University of Minnesota Law School's class of 1990, he said, "my perspective was a tunnel vision; I was mostly concerned about the welfare of the African American community.""That was the era of [Spike Lee's
 film] 'Do the Right Thing,' " he continued. "Remember that? People had their black,

The Two Minutes Hate
Excerpted from Chapter 1, 1984 by George Orwell
http://www.online-literature.com/orwell/1984/1/

The next moment a hideous, grinding speech, as of some monstrous
machine running without oil, burst from the big telescreen at the end
of the room. It was a noise that set one's teeth on edge and bristled
the hair at the back of one's neck. The Hate had started.

As usual, the face of Emmanuel Goldstein, the Enemy of the People, had
flashed on to the screen. There were hisses here and there among the
audience. The little sandy-haired woman gave a squeak of mingled fear
and disgust. Goldstein was the renegade and backslider who once, long
ago (how long ago, nobody quite remembered), had been one of the
leading figures of the Party, almost on a level with Big Brother
himself, and then had engaged in counter-revolutionary activities, had
been condemned to death, and had mysteriously escaped and disappeared.
The programmes of the Two Minutes Hate varied from day to day, but
there was none in which Goldstein was not the principal figure. He was
the primal traitor, the earliest defiler of the Party's purity. All
subsequent crimes against the Party, all treacheries, acts of
sabotage, heresies, deviations, sprang directly out of his teaching.
Somewhere or other he was still alive and hatching his conspiracies:
perhaps somewhere beyond the sea, under the protection of his foreign
paymasters, perhaps even -- so it was occasionally rumoured -- in some
hiding-place in Oceania itself.

Winston's diaphragm was constricted. He could never see the face of
Goldstein without a painful mixture of emotions. It was a lean Jewish
face, with a great fuzzy aureole of white hair and a small goatee
beard -- a clever face, and yet somehow inherently despicable, with a
kind of senile silliness in the long thin nose, near the end of which
a pair of spectacles was perched. It resembled the face of a sheep,
and the voice, too, had a sheep-like quality. Goldstein was delivering
his usual venomous attack upon the doctrines of the Party -- an attack
so exaggerated and perverse that a child should have been able to see
through it, and yet just plausible enough to fill one with an alarmed
feeling that other people, less level-headed than oneself, might be
taken in by it. He was abusing Big Brother, he was denouncing the
dictatorship of the Party, he was demanding the immediate conclusion
of peace with Eurasia, he was advocating freedom of speech, freedom of
the Press, freedom of assembly, freedom of thought, he was crying
hysterically that the revolution had been betrayed -- and all this in
rapid polysyllabic speech which was a sort of parody of the habitual
style of the orators of the Party, and even contained Newspeak words:
more Newspeak words, indeed, than any Party member would normally use
in real life. And all the while, lest one should be in any doubt as to
the reality which Goldstein's specious claptrap covered, behind his
head on the telescreen there marched the endless columns of the
Eurasian army -- row after row of solid-looking men with
expressionless Asiatic faces, who swam up to the surface of the screen
and vanished, to be replaced by others exactly similar. The dull
rhythmic tramp of the soldiers' boots formed the background to
Goldstein's bleating voice.

Before the Hate had proceeded for thirty seconds, uncontrollable
exclamations of rage were breaking out from half the people in the
room. The self-satisfied sheep-like face on the screen, and the
terrifying power of the Eurasian army behind it, were too much to be
borne: besides, the sight or even the thought of Goldstein produced
fear and anger automatically. He was an object of hatred more constant
than either Eurasia or Eastasia, since when Oceania was at war with
one of these Powers it was generally at peace with the other. But what
was strange was that although Goldstein was hated and despised by
everybody, although every day and a thousand times a day, on
platforms, on the telescreen, in newspapers, in books, his theories
were refuted, smashed, ridiculed, held up to the general gaze for the
pitiful rubbish that they were in spite of all this, his influence
never seemed to grow less. Always there were fresh dupes waiting to be
seduced by him. A day never passed when spies and saboteurs acting
under his directions were not unmasked by the Thought Police. He was
the commander of a vast shadowy army, an underground network of
conspirators dedicated to the overthrow of the State. The Brotherhood,
its name was supposed to be. There were also whispered stories of a
terrible book, a compendium of all the heresies, of which Goldstein
was the author and which circulated clandestinely here and there. It
was a book
