Nation of Islam’s Minister Louis Farrakhan calls for ‘new beginning’ for religion

Calling today’s organized religion a failure, the Nation of Islam’s Minister Louis Farrakhan on Sunday urged a “new beginning” during the rededication ceremony for a renovated mosque on Chicago’s South Side, striking a tone of inclusion toward Jews, Christians and other Muslims.  He also embraced members of all races as each being their brother’s keeper.  >>>>>

Islamophobia on the rise in world, OIC chief says

Islamophobia not only stands in front of the Muslims, but the whole humanity, Ihsanoglu said.

“Stability, peace and security in the world are inseparable from each other. In the long run, Islamophobia will continue in the world. Muslims are psychologically, economically and socially affected by Islamophobia. Such a dramatic situation should be described as a segregation based on race and religion,” Ihsanoglu said.  >>>>>

Muslim group calls indefinite transport shutdown in Nepal

Enraged by repeated attacks on mosques and protesting the lack of security, Muslims in eastern Nepal have called an indefinite transport shutdown from Sunday.The Purvanchal Muslim Sangharsh Samiti, an umbrella organisation of protesters, has been staging a transport shutdown in eastern Nepal since Thursday to pressure the Maoist government to bring to justice an armed group that led two recent attacks on mosques in eastern Nepal. Two devotees at prayer were killed in the attacks.  >>>>>

Sharia law inevitable in Uganda’s legal system

In Britain, the common law system is available to everybody but to Muslims it is impotent when it comes to civil issues regarding marriage, divorce and other disputes whose dispensation in heaven is perceived as more crucial than any ruling that might be handed down by an English judge in a horsehair wig.

Ugandan Muslims have advocated Sharia law to deal with these importance issues because secular laws cannot address them to the satisfaction of our conscience. Therefore, Sharia law is inevitable in any community where Muslims are a part.  >>>>>

‘Muslim’ shouldn’t be a slur

In a “don’t worry, be happy” tone, I breezily noted that although the stoking of racial fear and xenophobia was a cherished tradition of American politics, I really didn’t think that this time around the candidates would permit the wholesale slander of Islam or Muslims.

Apparently, I was wrong. The undertones have become screaming overtones. And it is past time to object.  >>>>>

This is by design, in order to help keep the excuse(s) to continue the war on terror alive.  It helps that even the opposing party’s candidate also reject any future potential of exonerating Muslims in the public eye while at the same time, forcing the hand of democrats to continue to maintain their position on the Islamophobic bandwagon.

Top Philippine court rejects Muslim autonomy deal

The Philippine Supreme Court threw out on Tuesday a proposed accord to grant minority Muslims expanded autonomy after Christian protests and renewed fighting convinced the government to abandon the deal.  >>>>>

This renewed fighting is exactly what was wanted.  To label them as Christian protests, instead of Philipino protests shows exactly the direction they are intending this to move toward – a war against Muslims.  Philippines is a secular nation.  But it is easy to pit each other against religious ideologies in order to safeguard the weak substance of a so-called Western-styled democracy.  The U.S. actually has more to gain, contrary to what the article says, if there was conflict in the region.  It tends to weaken Philippines own government’s disagreements and overall independence from the U.S., and naturally justifies having more a military, albeit advisor, presence in the Philippines.

Why is it that when Christian-populated East Timor wanted to separate from the democratically elected, majority-Muslim populated Indonesia, it was portrayed as something good in secular newspapers.  When Muslim-populated Mindanao wants separation from majority-populated Catholic Philippines, it is not good.  The same question can be raised about Chechnya, Palestine, Mauritania, Lebanon, Syria, Algeria and Egypt, amongst other nations — democracy is not factored in by those who champion democracy.

It’s is only used as a pep-rally cheer to bring forth the cause of the powerful.  Yes, the powerful seek ‘democracy’, when it is usually a corruption of democratic values and rule of the fundamental laws that gave them the power to begin with.

If those Muslims in Mindanoa were carrying a red, white and blue banner, and had white skin, and carrying crosses and the Bible; then them seeking autonomy would be heard around the world as a legitimate cause….even if they yelled from the top of the lungs, “Give me liberty, or give me death.”  Since this isn’t the case, they are mere rebels who should not want autonomy.

Young U.S. Muslims Shift to Democrats This Election

The Pew study shows that older Muslim Americans support the military fight against terrorism, especially in Afghanistan, more often than younger Muslim Americans. Duke professor Jen’nan Ghazel Read says this divide is normal. Her research shows that the majority of Muslim Americans, who were born in the Middle East or Southeast Asia, still have a strong connection to their native homelands, despite years of being in this country.  >>>>>

I guess that still makes me young….yippeee!!!

Father, forgive me, I will not fight for your Israel

And when you told your father? “Dad was astonished and angry that I had been there and endangered my life. After that we had conversations. He supported me as his daughter and we have a good relationship, but he is decidedly opposed to what I do and even more to my refusal to serve in the army.

“At first he thought this was a passing phase of adolescence and later he understood that this is coming from a place deep inside me. He and I have very similar characters. I, too, fight to the end for what I believe in. But we are opposites ideologically.” >>>>>

It’s worth repeating…She is a perfect example of why Muslims should not be hating any one group of people. She has made a decision of conscience. It is a brave one that places her morals above her nation’s call of duty. May she receive the blessings and protection for her decision.

Arson probe as Indian Muslim family burned alive

Six members of a Muslim family were burned alive Sunday in a fire at their house in the southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh.

Police are looking into whether the fire was arson or an accident, because it came two days after deadly ethnic clashes between Hindus and Muslims in the same district.  >>>>>

These are the same group of people that are attacking Christians.  Yet, the Hindo-Israeli agenda is pushing for a more firm and expansive theocratic-nationalism.  How would this bode for the wrongfully labeled Judeo-Christian West?

Kashmir shuts down in protest as Indian PM visits

SRINAGAR, India: Shops, businesses and schools were shut in the Indian portion of Kashmir on Saturday to protest a visit by the Indian prime minister to the disputed Himalayan region.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was in the region to inaugurate its first train line and meet with pro-Indian political parties.  >>>>>

CAIR: Illinois Muslim Attacked on College Campus

Just prior to the attack, the student says she noticed graffiti stating “kill the Muslims” written on the restroom mirror. In previous incidents, the student was reportedly called a “terrorist” by another person on campus and found anti-Muslim graffiti and a Nazi swastika scrawled in her locker. >>>>>

Sultan’s permanent leadership of Muslims indisputable – Arisekola

Recently, there was a publication in a national newspaper (not Tribune) about some Nigerians decrying the permanent seat of the Sultan of Sokoto as the leader of all Muslims in Nigeria. In this interview with Qudirat Hakeem-Apanpa, the Aare Musulumi of Yorubaland, Alhaji AbdulAzeez Arisekola- Alao, speaks on the controversial issue and others. Excerpts:  >>>>>

Armed Forces recruiters reach out to Muslims

A Burnaby mosque is inviting the Canadian Armed Forces to host an informal recruiting session tonight as part of the military’s push to get more Muslims in its ranks.

“When you have people over there who are Arabic-speaking, or Farsi-speaking, or Urdu-speaking, suddenly you break down the communication barrier, and it allows us to be better peacekeepers,” Ali said.  >>>>>

Regardless of whether there are linguists and translators from all over the world sent to the region, as long as they have gones and are considered occupiers — don’t expect to keep the peace.

India and Israel don’t add up to a Christian response against Islam

Hindutva groups are meeting Zionist organizations to learn about strategies to advance religious nationalist agendas and suppress any criticism of their political movements.

These U.S.-based groups have helped strengthen India-Israel ties and propagate the notion that Hindu and Jewish Americans are victims of a common enemy defined as “Islamic terrorism,” for example, through organizations such as Democracies against Terror which is an alliance of Zionist and Hindutva activists based in Fremont, Calif.

In response to the linked article:  India Loses Her Palestinian Heart and Gains a Calculating Israeli Mind

The problem with this type of thinking is that eventually, the practicing Jewish and Hindus will be met with a logical argument about their respective fundamental beliefs.  The Jews believe in monotheism, as do Muslims and Christians.  Hindus believe in polytheism, a clear antithesis to all three of the Abrahamic faiths.

Since there is a posturing by the Zionists and Evangelical Christians to set up the stage for the ‘end of time,’ then this political move will speak volumes as to which side each group is expected to be on.  If the belief is that during Armageddon, there will be a war against the non-believers; the polytheistic Hindus, would clearly be amongst those on the side against the God of the Christians, Jews and Muslims-at least in theory. Correct?

This alliance may be what causes the true-believing Christians and Jews will gain faith and shift their loyalties in greater mass away from the pro-Zionist, pro-nationalist cause.  Then those racing up to this expected phase in God’s plan will start to realize the earthly plan may not be in accordance to what each respective religious group believes its respective God wants.  And if these groups are desiring to move collectively with their religious-nationalist agendas; then why is it bad for Muslims to discuss the same in political discourse without being labeled as Islamo-Fascist?  Why would the U.S. support this non-secular position unless it is somehow blackmailed into doing so?

This agenda does not bode well for the world in general.  Israel has a present stockpile of nuclear weapons without complying to the same standards countries that don’t have nuclear weapons do comply with.  But now the U.S. and Israel are supporting India’s right to seek out such weapons.  That fact alone should bring alarm to all countries around the world – especially Pakistan, Iran and countries with significant Muslim populations – that there is a far greater sense of geopolitical hypocrisy that may just blow up in the very faces of those creating this mess.

Unfortunately, most countries in the game tend to believe that their agenda is well in-line with God’s plan, even if it is contrary to what God Himself has directed them, according to their own respective scriptures.

Muslims Put Tourniquet on Book ‘Bleeding for Allah’

NEW YORK, NY — Every once in a while someone does something that really pisses-off a whole population of people. Markus Aurelius’ book, “Bleeding for Allah: Why Islam will Conquer the Free World. What Americans need to Know”, seems to have done just that. Millions of Muslims around the world are incensed by this smallish book and have responded en masse by having it banned in countries all across Africa and Asia.  >>>>>

I take offense at the statement ‘Free World’ placed opposite that of Islam. There is no such thing as a “Free World” without Islam.  If a person is not allowed to accept and live by Islam, then how can the world be free?  No thanks for dictating such – (pun intended).

American Panel Recommends New Direction for US-Muslim Relations

“Our report has a four-pillar strategy,” said David Fairman, the project’s co-director. “The first is conflict resolution primarily through diplomacy. The second is improving governance and civic participation in Muslim countries in partnership without dictating the form in which governance or democratic development takes. The third is working together on mutually beneficial economic partnerships for job creation and development in Muslim countries and also trade and markets for the U.S.  And the last is building mutual respect and understanding between our societies and our people at every level.” >>>>>

While diplomacy is always good; it appears that the foot has been in the door far too long; and now it appears that this may be a way for actually relying on Islamic countries in the future with regards to them actually gaining more leverage on the economic, civic, human rights and overall global recognition – fronts.

Manual outlines Muslim radicalization in prisons

PARIS (AP) — Security officials from several European countries have developed a manual to help prison authorities prevent their jailhouses from becoming incubators for Muslim extremists.

The manual, developed by France, Germany and Austria, includes signs that may indicate that a prisoner was becoming radicalized, including the presence of a growing beard. A prison group feared the manual could stigmatize Muslim inmates.  >>>>>

Even the title is Islamophobic.  The title of this article can be interpretted that Muslims have a manual that teaches them how to become more radical while in prison.  This is racial profiling after the fact.  This may be part of their very own psyops in order to prevent those from leaving prison from practicing Islam and be better equipped to identify the ills that governments impose upon society.  This is part of the War against Islam within the infrastructure of a society.  It sounds like there is an expectation of housing a great deal of Muslims in their European prisons.  Why not have a manual that prevents the radical Communism, Fascism, or other such ideologies?

‘Obsession’ not based in reality

The Free Press and the Detroit News should be acknowledged for their decision not to distribute the hateful film, recognizing its divisive aims. Muslims and other supporters of peaceful, religious diversity are grateful. Both presidential hopefuls, Obama and McCain must also distance themselves from this type of election year tactic. It is time that the mainstream media and people of good will stand up to fear mongering and bigotry during the election season, especially when America is facing so many challenges at home and abroad.  >>>>>

ALERT!!! Dr. Fredrick Toben Has Been Arrested

British police executed a European Union arrest warrant issued by German authorities at Heathrow late last night Melbourne time.

The arrest warrant accuses 64-year-old Toben of publishing material on the internet “of an anti-Semitic and/or revisionist nature” [i.e. material that Zionist Jews don't want YOU to see] in Australia, Germany and other countries.  >>>>>

Yet if he would have made a parallel story, or worse, exaggerated and lied about something Muslims did or did not do, there would be a full-scale ‘terrorism’ investigation as well as a page in history whereby the original smear of the Muslims remained – regardless of whether found out to be false.

Let your actions match your prayers, Yar’Adua enjoins Nigerians

President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua and other top political office holders have urged Nigerians, especially Muslim faithful to reflect the lessons of the Holy Month of the Ramadan in their daily endeavours. The president, in a goodwill message to Muslims on the occasion of the Eid-el-Fitri celebrations, urged all Nigerians to let their actions match their prayers.  >>>>>
