Spotlight by Imam Badi Ali [North Carolina Jamaat
al-Muslimeen leader]
I was with my child in a local video store to rent a
documentary. A movie was on, full of profanity, including
the F word. I asked the manager: Please turn it off,
otherwise I'll have to leave and take my business elsewhere.
He did it but with great reluctance. My point is: We Muslims
should be sensitive to the desenstization of this nation
through the use of profanities even in front of children. We
should have TAWQA and try to restrain the abusers.
Pakistanis demonstrated in every Pak city to condemn the
Kerry Lugar Bill which ties Pak to US interests.

Red Alert: Jamaat al-Muslimeen press Release: Please publish
and distribute widely.
Gaza-like situation in Waziristan: The Pakistani military is
preparing another bloodbath, this time in South Waziristan.
US drone attacks are softening up the resistance. Like
Israel, General Kayani is terrorizing the entire population
to leave their homes or face air strikes, artillery and tank
attacks. Thousands have already fled their homes. Remember
that General Kayani uprooted 4 million people from Swat and
Dir of whom about one million are still in camps. All major
entry points into South Waziristan have been sealed by the
military to stop the flow of food, medicines and fuel to the
threatened area. This could create a humanitarian
catastrophe in the coming winter.
This is the time for those who claim Islamic legitimacy to
speak out against the US-funded Pakistani military's
actions. Displacement of populations to create a free fire
zone is a form of genocide. Why is Iran silent? Where are
the Ikhwan al-Muslimeen? Is American-Israeli pressure too
strong? Or are there sectarian considerations at work?

Obama's Complete Sell-out to Israel on the Nuclear Issue
[With thanks to Sis. Sofia, New York City]
[October 2, 2009]
Following up on assurances he made in May, President Obama
has reportedly 'reaffirmed' a secret understanding whereby
he will not reveal the existence of Israel's widely known
nuclear arsenal, nor will he pressure Israel to join the
nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). [Source: National
Public Radio and others]
[By contrast, severe pressure is being put on Iran to stop
its peaceful nuclear program.]

News from our Boycott List: Nestle involved in indirect Racism
October 1, 2009: Nestle is refusing to buy milk from
Zimbabwe's state owned farms which were originally owned by
Europeans and were nationalized by Zimbabwe's outspoken

Absurd JFK Case Scaring Muslims from Trinidad and Guyana
from Br. Abu Talib, Brooklyn, New York
Jamaat al-Muslimeen flyers about the absurdity of the JFK
case are being distributed in Brooklyn on an ongoing
basis.
At a hearing for the JFK "suspects," no one from the
Caribbean and Guyanese communities turned up owing to the
fear and terror spread among the population by bogus claims
against the "suspects." The charges go back to the times
before 9.11 when one of the suspects used to work at JFK
airport. How three helpless, unarmed men could possibly blow
up an airport is the fabrication and invention of the US
government. It's also a way of keeping Shi'ite Muslims from
Trinidad suppressed along with Sunnis from Guyana.
Trinidadian Kareem Ibrahim, Guyanese Russel De Freitas,
Abdul Kadir and Abdel Nur have been indicted on charges of
plotting to blow up JFK International Airport, New York, in
2007.
De Freitas, a former employee of JFK, was arrested in
Brooklyn on June 1, 2007. Kadir and Ibrahim were arrested in
Trinidad on June 3, 2007. Nur surrendered to police two days
later in Diego Martin. On June 29, 2007, the four men were
indicted on charges of conspiring to "cause death, serious
bodily injury and extensive destruction" at the airport.
[Two and a quarter years later, the government is still
preparng its case. Hard work is required to fabricate these
stories.]
Protestors Accuse Meyerhoff of Zionist Bigotry: Zionism is Racism
Rally Against Pakistani General Musharraf: Crimes against
Humanity focused: Chief Justice Arrested, Red Mosque
Attacked, Gtmo, "Disappearances."
The September 29 rally at the Meyerhoff Symphony Hall in
Baltimore went on from 7.30 PM to 9.15 PM. The demonstrators
led by a Jamaat al-Muslimeen core group were in high
spirits.
-
They chanted.
-
They shouted slogans.
-
They made brief speeches.
-
They distributed flyers listing Musharraf's crimes.
-
A variety of placards were displayed. One said: Remember LAL
MASJID. One mourned the young women killed by Musharraf.
Another showed Musharraf with devils horns and called him
Busharraf and WAR CRIMINAL.
-
A politically savvy placard compared the assault on the Red
Mosque to the attack on the MOVE House in Philadelphia which
was similarly set on fire.
Br. Kaukab Siddique addressed the protestors and ticket
holders to the program as they passed and other passersby on
the megaphone several times and made the following
points:
1. Many of the people in Gtmo and Bagram prisons were
innocents handed over to Bush by Musharraf.
2. Musharraf violated the Constitution of Pakistan and
arrested the Chief Justice of Pakistan, thus putting an end
to Rule of Law.
3. Hundreds of Islamic activists were "disappeared" by
Musharraf's regime and they have still not been
recovered.
4. Musharraf's commandos attacked the Red Mosque and Jamia
Hafsa [women's seminary] and killed hundreds of
students.
5. Mush's army committed serious atrocities in Baluchistan.
Numerous Baluchis, including women, disappeared.
6. Meyerhoff's honors for Musharraf show hatred of Islam,
Muslims and Pakistan.
7. Meyerhoff invited Medeleine Albright, Salman Rushdie and
now Musharraf: These are blatant acts of Zionist-Jewish
bigotry.
8. Pakistanis will put Musharraf on trial and US Muslims
will put Meyerhoff on the boycott list, inshallah.
9. American voters dumped Bush's party but Myerhoff is still
clinging to Mush, Bush's Pakistani agent.
Pakistanis from Baluchistan Joined the Rally
Baluch activists joined the rally against Musharraf. Under
Musharraf, Baluchistan suffered open ended police assaults
including the murder of top Baluch leader Akbar Khan Bugti.
The Baluchi protestor began by raising secular slogans,
including a comparison of Musharraf with "bin Laden"
[probably meant to win American sympathy.] At this point, a
Pakistani sister leading the Jamaat rally raised the slogan
of Takbir: Allahu Akbar. [Both groups had megaphones.]
However, after a little discussion, both groups coalesced
and only Islamic slogans were raised.
Meyerhoff Disturbed by Rally: Tried to Coopt Protestors
Meyerhoff Symphony Hall, the cultural flagship of the Jewish
community in Baltimore, where Musharraf was speaking was
apparently taken aback by the demonstration. First they
tried strong arm tactics by sending police wagons to check
out the protestors while a helicopter hovered overhead and
special service agents inside the Meyerhoff were on the
alert. The protestors remained peaceful, so the police
left.
After that the Meyerhoff offered free tickets to the
protestors to go inside and listen to Musharraf. A Jamaat
representative asked the Meyerhoff man: After 8 years of
Bush, would you like to listen to one more speech by him?
[He said: No!] Similarly, for 8 years, Pakistanis had to
listen to Musharraf's lies for 8 years. Now is not the time
to listen to him.
One of the Baluch brothers later took the ticket, went in
and interrupted Musharraf several time. Every time Musharraf
paused, the brother said: "You're a dictator." Mush tried to
distract him by saying: "You must be from India." The
brother answered: "No! I am from Baluchistan."
"I am a Muslim!"
The Meyerhoff people were worried by the Jamaat rally
because it could reduce their ticket sales in the future.
One of the Meyerhoff people, probably an official, came out
and was approached by Sis. Chekeisha El-Amin. She gave him a
flyer which was being distributed against Musharraf. He was
very puzzled that a strong group of African-American
Muslimahs was spearheading the rally, including one with a
child with her.
"Why are you here," he asked, referring to her being
African-American. Sis. Chekeisha's answer: "I am a
Muslim."
The Zionists are disturbed that dedicated African-American
activists are supporting Jamaat al-Muslimeen. They are
disturbed because Baltimore is, largely, an African-American
city.
[Special credit goes to Sis. Chekeisha. She was the first to
notice that the Zionists had invited Musharraf, and she
alerted the Jamaat.]
Witness to Lal Masjid [Red Mosque]
A prominent Pakistani American, originally from Islamabad,
had travelled quite some distance to participate in the
symbolic rally. He had witnessed the assault on the Red
Mosque and that had changed the direction of his life.
Some of the demonstrators celebrated after the rally. [Want

War News: Pakistan
Kayani carrying on Musharraf's Mission
From a Pakistan observer: Comment on the Torture Video
Pakistan's secularized Army soldiers torturing elderly
Muslims in Swat.
Graphic video, exercise caution.
http://pkpolitics.com/2009/10/01/human-rights-abuses-by-pakitan-army
This is violation of laws of war and clearly there needs to
be an international investigation by Human Rights groups.
This may be the tip of the iceberg and the entire chain of
command needs to be investigated including General Kayani
and his generals.
In addition the abettors and intellectual enablers
including Pervez Hoodbhoy, Sethi of Daily Times and Ahmed
Rashid should also be indicted for inciting Army action and
providing a raison d'etre for it. US officials and Generals
who may have conspired, provided funding, planning and
encouragement should also be investigated including
Holbrooke and Anne Patterson for their roles in the attack
on civilian populations by the Pakistan Army. Both officials
have publicly hailed Army action in Swat and tribal areas.
Saddam was hanged on the charges of killing his own people;
how is this different?.
Video shows Pakistan army 'abuse'
By Syed Shoaib Hasan
BBC News, Islamabad
Men in uniform are seen kicking and hitting detainees
Pakistani soldiers are seen apparently abusing Taliban
suspects in a 10-minute video which has been posted on the
social networking site, Facebook. The video would be the
first clear proof of such abuse. It shows men in military
uniform beating suspects as officers stand by giving
instructions.
It is not clear who shot the film or where. It appears to
have been made recently, perhaps in the Swat valley.
Pakistan's army has said it needs to examine the video
before commenting.
Conversations heard on the video suggest it is recent.
Troops recently declared they had largely cleared the Swat
valley of insurgents after a sustained offensive there.
Human rights groups have accused the military of being
involved in torture and extra-judicial killings in the
region.
Whips
"This is a very serious accusation," Gen Athar Abbas, head
of Pakistan army's public relations wing, told the BBC when
asked about the video.
"I cannot comment on the video till we have examined it.
This will take some time as the army headquarters will have
to be involved in the process."
The footage shows an officer in Pakistani army battle
uniform interrogating several suspects, some of whom are
quite elderly and are presumably relatives of men being
sought.
When the officer does not receive satisfactory answers, he
motions with his head and soldiers rush in to punish the
suspect.
They then beat him with belts, fists and what appear to be
small whips. He is also kicked all over the body by soldiers
wearing heavy army boots.
The suspect is heard screaming and imploring the soldiers to
stop in the name of Allah, repeatedly saying he has told
them all he knows.
In the video the soldiers administering the beating have to
be restrained by the officer on at least two occasions.
Threats
After an initial round of punishment, the officer tells a
suspect that this is "soft treatment". Unless the suspect
tells all, the officer says he will have to administer "hard
punishment".
"You don't want me to cut off your hands and feet," the
officer says.
If confirmed, this would be the first clear proof of the
Pakistani army being involved in the abuse of detainees.
The Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) and other
groups have accused the army of such violations during the
recent Swat campaign.
The HRCP says it has also found evidence that the army is
involved in extra-judicial killings in the region.
The Pakistani army has consistently denied the reports,
calling them "baseless."
But it has also said it will investigate if any solid proof
emerges of its personnel being involved in such activities.
War News: Afghanistan: U.S. Forces Under Attack as they
prepare to Retreat
[The fighting is widespread. This is only a sample.]
October 3, 2009: Kamdesh district of Nuristan province:
Taliban led by Commander Dost Muhammad overran a U.S.
military post and an Afghan police post. US troops put up
heavy resistance but could not stop the Taliban though the
Taliban were armed only with automatic rifles and RPGs. At
least 8 US troops and 7 Afghan police were killed in the
attack. Another 15 Afghan police were captured by the
Taliban. They include the chief of police and the
intelligence officer helping the Americans.
The Taliban briefly occupied the two posts but withdrew
after heavy US air strikes and helicopter gunship attacks
killed 7 of the Taliban. According to Taliban spokesman
Zabihullah Mujaddidi, it was a complete Taliban victory.
[The area is only 10 miles from the Pakistani border. There
is conjecture that these fighters are from Swat and withdrew
in good order from there after the Pakistani air force
bombed Swat.]
October 2: An American soldier from an elite Sapper division
was killed in Logar province when a Taliban fighter hit his
tank with an RPG.
In the Panjwai area near Kandahar, two Afghan children, 14
and 16, were killed by Canadian troops when they passed by
on a motorbike and refused to stop.
Also October 2: A British air force officer was killed on
the ground in a Taliban IED attack in Helmand province.
Also October 2: Two NATO fuel tankers coming in from
Tajikistan were attacked by Taliban, set on fire and
destroyed just outside Kunduz City in northern Afghanistan.
The drivers escaped.
October 1: A US trooper from the elite 101st airborne was
killed in Wardak province when his unit came under small
arms fire from Taliban raiders. {October 3: Also in Wardak
province 2 US troops were killed and 2 wounded when an
Afghan soldier working with them killed them and escaped at
night.}
ISNA's SIRAJ WAHHAJ: The Million Dollar man of FBI
affiliated Groups
Muslims of America, the richest in the world, should be

activity.
Think about it: Million dollar mosques are extracting the
money from American Muslims so that little is left for the
real needs of the Ummah. Once again, Siraj Wahhaj helped ISB
[Islamic Society of Baltimore] to collect $500,000 although
it is the richest mosque in the area. The same kind of
EXTRACTION is going on in Darussalam [College Park,
Maryland] and many other mosques. Siraj Wahhaj is the
beloved of ISNA, a group which has confessed to its decades
of links with the FBI, the White House and the Pentagon.

earthquake measuring 7.6 on the Richter scale struck
offshore close to the district of Padang Pariaman in the
West Sumatra province. The second earthquake struck the same
region the following morning, measuring 6.8.
There have been heavy human losses and injuries as buildings
have collapsed trapping and crushing thousands. Destroyed
roads and rubble are making it difficult to access all the
affected areas.
Hidaya Foundation plans to support the survivors of this

Letter: India: Fake religious Activities and Wasteful
"Worship" while Masses Starve
Not less than $10m are spent each year thruout India on
these idols. the idols are just an excuse, people want to
waste money on their self made gods for their own mythological
enjoyments. This much money can be used for hundreds of
constructive plans and the nation can boost its education,
economy, morale and hi-tech in various fields. It has
nothing to do with the actual Hinduism teachings. It is
purely the fault of Hindutva communal & terrorist forces as
well as the illiteracy. This kind of illitaracy is found
only in India where even the so-called educated elite wastes
millions of Dollars in festivals like Deepawali, Raawan
burning Desehra, Holy, Basant, Durga pooja, Linga pooja, etc
etc
It doesnt mean that the Muslims are safe from these self
styled extravagant senseless worshipping methods. They too
have created their own idols and own gods and own
worshipping methods on which they spend mercilessly millions
of Dollars, like Repeated Umra & Haj, Urs, Sandals,
Chiraghaan, giyarween, Kunde, Dowry, whole wedding
ceremonial activities, Iftaar parties, Birthdays, Marriage
anniversaries, Meeladunnabi (a right cause with wrong
activities), whole Moharram activities by Shia and Sunni
both, Aqeeqa, Bismillah & Khatna functions.,
it is the call of the hour to bring a total revolution in
the religious understanding, complete overhauling of social
system, and brain washing of every Hindu and Muslim of India
and Pakistan.

Palestine: 375 Children in prison under Israeli Occupation:
September 25, 2009
BI'ILIN, West Bank - Eight children between the ages of 10
and 17 were arrested and detained by Israeli soldiers during
military raids Monday night and Tuesday morning in the
northern West Bank cities Nablus and Qalqilia.
Defense for Children International (DCI) Palestine has
released a statement that the number of children detained in
Israeli jails and temporary Israeli army detention centers
this year has risen by 17.5 percent compared with 2008.
"The average number of Palestinian children held in Israeli
detention in 2009 remains high, at 375 per month compared
with an average of 319 in 2008," says DCI.
"Disturbingly, 39 young children between the ages of 12 and
15 were detained in August 2009. This is up 85 percent
compared to the corresponding period in 2008 of 21
children."
Israel is a signatory to the 1989 UN Convention on the
Rights of the Child which states that "the arrest, detention
or imprisonment of a child shall be used only as a measure
of last resort and for the shortest appropriate period of
time."
Nashmi Muhammad Abu Rahme, 14, from the West Bank village of
Biilin near Ramallah was arrested and dragged from his bed
at 3 am Aug. 15 after Israeli soldiers raided his home.
The village of Biilin has been involved in a protracted
campaign of non- violent civil disobedience against Israel's
building of a wall which cuts through village land,
separating villagers and farmers from their agricultural
fields.
The villagers successfully petitioned an Israeli court to
have the wall re- routed several years ago, but the Israeli
Defense Forces (IDF) have failed to comply with the
court's orders.
"My family was awoken by the sounds of Israeli soldiers
yelling and starting to smash down the door. I was
blindfolded and tightly handcuffed by the soldiers and then
thrown into the back of a jeep," recalls Abu Rahme.
"During the journey to the military base I was repeatedly
slapped, beaten and kicked until I was bleeding. I was very
scared," Abu Rahme told IPS.
Israeli medics treated Abu Rahme for bleeding and contusions
before he was brought before an interrogator, again
blindfolded and handcuffed. His interrogation lasted three
hours, during which he was accused of throwing stones at
soldiers near the wall on Bi'ilin's agricultural land.
Abu Rahme was kept in jail for a week before he was brought
before a military prosecutor. He was fined 5,000 shekels
(1,340 dollars) and released.
"We have had about 12 children from our village arrested and
detained by the Israelis," Hassan Moussa, a schoolteacher
from the neighboring village of Ni'ilin told IPS.
Under Israeli administrative detention, Palestinians can be
held for three months without trial, and this can be renewed
at the end of that period for another three months.
"It interrupts their education when they are detained for
weeks and months without being brought to trial," says
Moussa.
Most Palestinian children are held for stone-throwing.
Israeli Military Order 378 carries a maximum penalty of 20
years imprisonment for this, five years less than the
average murder sentence in Israel.
"During interrogation, children as young as 12 years are
denied access to a lawyer and visits from their families,"
says DCI.
"Whilst under interrogation children are subjected to a
number of prohibited techniques. These include the excessive
use of blindfolds and handcuffs, slapping and kicking,
painful position abuse for long periods of time, solitary
confinement, sleep deprivation, and a combination of
physical and psychological threats," says DCI.
Israeli human rights organization B'Tselem describes the
tiny cells where Palestinian children are often held in
solitary confinement.
These include the lock-up, a dark cell of 1.5 by 1.5 meters.
The "closet" is a narrow cell the height of a person that
one can stand in but not sit or move. The "grave" is a box
closed by a door from the top and measuring approximately
one meter by 60 cm with a depth of about 80 cm.
DCI has documented at least seven cases during Israel's war
on Gaza at the beginning of the year where Gazan children
were used as human shields by Israeli soldiers.
"There is a big difference in the way Palestinian and
Israeli minors are treated by Israeli law," Khaled Quzmar
from DCI Palestine told IPS.
Palestinian children as young as 12 years are prosecuted in
the Israeli military courts and are treated as adults as
soon as they turn 16, in contrast to the situation under
Israeli domestic law, whereby majority is attained at 18.
The IDF announced in July that it would be setting up a
separate military court for juveniles. Hitherto both
Palestinian adults and children had been tried together.
"The good news is that after 42 years of occupation the
Israelis have recognized that their legal treatment of
Palestinian children has been morally indefensible," says
Quzmar.
"The bad news is that the changes are merely semantic.
Children will continue to be tried by the same judges in the
same jails. The only difference is juveniles will be tried
at separate times," Quzmar told IPS.
Previously, according to military law, there was no statute
of limitations on offences by Palestinians, even if the
suspect committed the offence when he or she was a minor.
"While the new order ostensibly sets a two-year statute of
limitations for offences committed by minors, it also allows
the military prosecutor to overrule this. The prosecution
will generally be given the benefit of the doubt," added
Quzmar.

Our America #2
Qaddafi Made Important Points: Media Censored him: Europe
Owes Africa $123 Trillion
by Sis. 'Aisha [Jamaat al-Muslimeen, New York City]
I listened to Col. Moammar Qaddafi's 09/23//2009 "rant", as
the US media called it, at the UN on CSPAN. Of course, it
was not a rant but a wake up call to the UN Assembly to
unite and sign an amendment to their rules in an effort to
strengthen their membership. Just as Imam Badi 'Ali had
stated, previously, Qaddafi had referred to the UN Security
council as a terror council. He questioned the need for a
security council that protects the interests of a select 20
countries while the UN General Assembly seems impotent.
Plus, the UN Security Council answers to no one. Shouldn't
the UN General Assembly be enough? He also wanted to know
why one dissenting vote can KO the majority votes of the UN
General Assembly members. I'm guessing he was speaking of
the U.S. government's veto power in the case of the UN
Assembly's contiguous efforts to bring sanctions against
Israel.
He brought up some other key points:
-
If European governments do not want Africans and other
peoples they've colonized coming to their countries then
taking our resources. He estimated that Europe owes Africa
over 123 trillion dollars alone. He state that Italy has
already acknowledged their wrong doing as colonizers and are
paying retribution.
-
Somalians are not pirates they are acting to protect their
200 miles of their sea resources from Japanese, American,
and Indian ships, who have been polluting their areas for
years.
-
Kashmir should be an independent State.
Qaddafi hopes for development in the Darfur region. He
accused the U.S. of sacrificing Darfur.
-
Applauded America for voting in a black president and even
referred to Pres. Obama as his Kenyan son but, stated with
trepidation, that if America really wants to make a change
it has to atone for its past.
-
Stated that UN Assembly needs to investigate the
assassinations of African leaders such as Patrice Lumuumba,
even Martin Luther King and Pres. John F. Kennedy. About
JFK's assassination, Col. Qaddafi stated that Lee Harvey
Oswald was accused of killing JFK but, before there was to
be a trial, Oswald was killed by an Israeli Jew - Jack Ruby.
Gen. Qaddafi stated that it was no secret that Pres.
Kennedy wanted to investigate and challenge Israel for
having nuclear reactors. I was told that Kennedy was killed
for not supporting the Bay of Pigs.
-
Wanted to know who declared the Taliban and Al-Qaida our
enemies? The planes that hit the World Trade Center did not
come from these countries but, from JFK airport.
-
Who okayed the U.S. invasion of Iraq and the subsequent
execution of Pres. Saddam Hussain? We knew the judge, who
presided over the trial but, not the executioner.
-
Lastly, it is shameful that people have to pay for vaccines
and medicines. These are items that should be free and made
available to all in need of it.
Col. Qaddafi stated that the UN Assembly needs to revise its
treaty to empower itself and investigate allegations against
the U.S. for war crimes against the Iraq people and even as
far back as the U.S. bombings of Japan, Korea, and Vietnam.
He said it is very easy to issue arrest warrants for
Panama's Noreaga and Sudan's Al-Bashir but, who will check
the U.S. when it does wrong?
I found it refreshing that a leader was able to challenge
the U.S.'s absolute power and the fact that so many
countries blindly follow the U.S. like sheep. Does that
sound like the ramblings of a mad man?
He stated that if countries do not receive the respect that
they deserve then, the only other recourse would be to leave
the General Assembly. He also stated that he was very proud
of the African Council and how it conducts itself regarding
African affairs.
