Muslims Must Change the Conditions of Women in this World
[Hadith from Sunan of Abu Dawood with compliments of Dawatul
Quran,Bangalore,India]
Comment by Kaukab Siddique: Half of all humanity globally is
in most cases being oppressed by the other half. We must
examine our behavior and create the opportunities for women
to be the best they can be. Crimes against women are
commonplace in America because the family system has
crumbled and they are commonplace in Pakistan and other
Muslim countries because the family system is so tight that
it is suffocating their humanity.

Bloody coup attempt on July 15 not first move by Gülen to
topple Erdoğan
YUNUS PAKSOY, ISTANBUL / DAILY SABAH
The bloody coup attempt on July 15 was the latest move by
the U.S.-based Gülenist Terror Organization (FETÖ) leader
Fethullah Gülen to seize power in Turkey and attempt to
topple President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan as well as the
government. The first sign that Gülen was planning an
ill-intentioned takeover in Turkey came to surface after
Gülenist prosecutor Sadrettin Sarıkaya summoned
National Intelligence Organization (MİT) head Hakan
Fidan on Feb. 7, 2012 for questioning. Sarıkaya wanted
to bring Fidan in to challenge him about speaking with
terrorists. Fidan's phone call with then-Prime Minister
Erdoğan turned this around, as Erdoğan strictly
prevented Fidan from testifying before Sarıkaya. Many
in Turkey have speculated that Sarıkaya intended to
summon Erdoğan after the MİT head was
questioned.In the wake of the Feb. 7 summons, many started
to suspect the Gülen Movement was trying to challenge the
government. Erdoğan said that this was his first signal
of what was to follow.
Having waged a fierce political battle against Erdoğan,
who is determined to shut down private Gülenist cram
schools, FETÖ took a second step on Dec. 17, 2013 and
started a wide-ranging wave of detentions and investigations
into some government ministers as well as businessmen close
to the government, on charges of corruption.
Through illegal wiretaps and falsified evidence, Gülenist
prosecutors aimed to undermine the legitimacy of the
government.
After the government weathered this first storm, a third
step was taken by FETÖ on Dec. 25, when the investigation
was expanded and Gülenists attempted to detain then-Prime
Minister Erdoğan's son Bilal Erdoğan.
Many saw the events of Dec. 17 and Dec. 25 as an attempted
coup that directly targeted Erdoğan and his
government.
Since then, the government has expelled many Gülenists from
the judiciary, military, police department and numerous
state institutions. Tens of thousands of Gülenists, who
disguise their intentions and dissimulate thier actions,
managed to retain their posts.
The latest move by FETÖ to topple Erdoğan and overthrow
the democratically elected government came on July 15, less
than a month before thousands of military officers were
expected to be dismissed from duty following the scheduled
annual meeting of the Supreme Military Council (YAŞ) in
early August.
On July 15, Turkey witnessed a horrific night, with assaults
on democracy and the national will, when Gülenist soldiers
and military officers staged an attempted coup. Fighter jets
flying over Ankara and Istanbul all night, opened fire on
civilians and bombed Parliament, deepening the shame for the
Gülenists.
Despite the attempt by Gülenist military officers to drag
the country into chaos, the will of the Turkish people,
their resolution to defend democracy as well as the
democratically-elected president and government, helped to
repel the coup attempt. Pleas from President Erdoğan
and Prime Minister Yıldırım for citizens to
take to the streets and stand up for democracy led to a
country-wide resistance against the coup attempt.
Gülen was quick to deny responsibility, but confessions of
military officers involved in the putschist junta and
several other remarkable incidents indicate that Gülenists
were directly responsible for the attempted coup, which
killed 246 police officers, soldiers and civilians.
Confessions of many putschists reveal that they acted on
behalf of FETÖ.
Brigadier General Fatih Celaleddin Sağır,
commander of an infantry brigade in the central city of
Sivas, was on a list of people who the coup plotters planned
to assign as martial law commanders had the coup been
successful. Sağır confessed his connection to FETÖ
during interrogation by prosecutors. According to statements
published by İhlas News Agency, Sağır said he
often attended meetings of Gülen followers, especially
during the 1980s and 1990s, and had served "the movement"
for 10 years.
Lieutenant Colonel Levent Türkkan, the aide of the Chief of
General Staff, Hulusi Akar, who was detained after the coup
attempt, has also confessed membership in the Gülenist
Terror Organization (FETÖ), which he said was behind the
deadly attempted coup on July 15.
Mithat Aynacı was a police chief in Istanbul until
2013, when he was dismissed for his role in the two
Gülenist-linked investigations against the government, under
the guise of a police probe into allegations of graft,
targeting politicians. He managed to return to duty after he
won a lawsuit against his dismissal. When tanks were heading
to Istanbul police headquarters, Aynacı donned was
found in one of the tanks. A video recording shows
Aynacı, wearing a military officer uniform, entering
the tank, and another one shows him forcefully pulled from
the tank

Shortly, Turkey will broadcast in English to counter Iranian
Press TV and Russian RT. Both presses give a spin on Middle
East Issues, especially on Syria and Iraq. Iran supports the
PKK, a communist Kurdish terrorist group, and PYD of Syria
in order to give support along with Russia to Nusayri Assad.
Imam Khomeini declared that the Assad Family is non-Muslim.
However, Iran no longer sides with issues according to Islam
rather they follow their nationalistic interests and Shia
sectarianism.
Iranian non-Islamic policy has diminished Sunni support for
Iran and provided strong support on a silver platter to the
Saudi Kingdom. In Syria so many people including women and
children have been killed by Tekfiri Assad and his Nusayri
army. Half of the Syrian population has left the country and
many Sunni cities were leveled to the ground with the help
of Iran, Hezbollah and Russia. An estimated; only 10-20% of
Syria, is Nusayri.
Many people mislabeled them as Allawi. Most Allawi pray and
fast and they have mosques. Nusayris do not pray, fast and
in their villages and cities do not have a single mosque.
How do I know that? I am from the same Turkish region,
Antakya.
Iranian Press TV is outright lying that all these killings
and destruction is being inflicted by the opposition group
and not mentioning a single line about Assad's forces
killing and destruction.
Turkish Arabic TV and English News TV will start exposing
their lies to the Muslim World. In the mean time, the
Turkish American Bulletin will try bringing the Syrian and
Palestinian Muslims struggles to you.
Communists, Leftist, European and American press have been
attacking President Erdogan. Mr. Erdogan's party, AKP is
reviving mutual and equal relation with the West, rather
than a subservient relation as practiced by previous Turkish
leaders. Because of this political awakening of Turkish
Muslims, it is making Israel and Western countries
uncomfortable.
Israel's strong and America's tacit support of Fethullah
Gulen (parallel or deep government) is to reduce Mr.
Erdogan's power. Gulen's Secret Police force and judges in
the Turkish government were wire tapping top government
officials including Mr. Erdogan and Mr. Davutoglu and
transferring this information to Israel, foreign newspapers
and governments. Any group or individuals that took a
position against the Gulen group, the Gulen Police Force
fabricated crimes against such groups or individuals were
sentenced to jail by Gulen judges.
Gulen was openly used against the Turkish Government, for
example when Turkish humanitarian aid was taken with Mavi
Marmara to Gaza; the Israeli Army attacked the ship and
killed 9 Turkish Muslims on International waters. Gulen
criticized the Mavi Marmara and told the Wall Street Journal
that aid organizers should have asked permission from
Israel.
Gulen has over than 139 charter schools in the USA and
making millions. However, recently the American people
realized that the Gülenist are violating US laws. In fact,
the FBI and Congress are investigating this group's
activities.
Bekir Aksoy (Gulen's aid) claims that the Hizmet (service)
deals with the cultural aspects of Islam and Gulen is a
moderate Muslim. Mr. Aksoy has no shame since he knows that
the Gulen Group stole university exams and gave to Gulenist
students so that his students could pass the exam with high
marks. As a result, Gulenist students infiltrated government
services, police forces, judicial system and the military.
He knows that the Hizmet serves Gulen's political power and
the interest of Israel. Who is the Hizmet serving? For a
fact, it is not to Turkey.
The group is realizing that the school ventures are losing
their credibility, some schools are being closed and this
time we find individuals, subservient to Gulen, are
establishing businesses. For example a person in Milwaukee
bought a YMCA building for one and a half million dollars.
The sufficiency of this individual's income is
questionable.
In the past, the Gulen Group told their followers to stay
away from Arab Muslims. Now that they are going into
business, they are trying to use Muslims for their business
ventures. In fact they have begun to purchase some Arab
Muslim organizations and Muslim outfits. The Gulen Group
uses the logic that they will not hesitate to give an egg if
they are expecting a goose in return. There is no question
that this group is trying to use Mosques and Muslim
organizations.
Historically, Lawrence of Arabia used some Arab Muslims
against Sultan Abdul Hamid who did not sell Palestine to the
Zionist. Today some Turks compare Gulen to Lawrence of
Arabia who is trying to use Arabs and make money and use
this money against Mr. Erdogan. A few years ago this group
used an excuse of a forest fire in Israel, raised money in
the US and they sent that money to Israel.
Arab Muslims should know Gulen. During the Gulf War when
Iraqi scud missiles fell in Israel, Gulen gave a lengthy
speech indicating his eyes got watery for Israeli Children.
Yet, not a single Israeli child died. On the other hand
because of the embargo against Iraq a half million Muslim
children died, yet not a single tear came from Gulen. Israel
decimated Gaza and their treatment of Palestinians resembles
Nazi Germany's treatment of Jews, however not a single
statement was made by Gulen about the Israeli bombardment.of
Palestine.
During the Iraq War, Gulen without shame stated in his
lengthy speech, he fabricated a lie that the people of Iraq
deserved this punishment because their ancestors fought
against the Ottoman. He has little historical knowledge, the
Iraqi people were the last people forced by the British to
separate from the Ottoman Khalifa. Gulen's motive to make
such a lie was to instigate nationalist Turks against Arab
Muslims.
In particular Arab Muslims and Muslims in general must be
careful, we have lost Palestine and destroyed Khalifa
Osmania because of our ignorance. In fact, Netanyahu openly
made a statement and declared that the West Bank, naturally
Al-Aqsa, will be part of Israel. The Middle East Issues will
not be resolved without Turkey. Many people admit that
Turkey is emerging as an economic and military power and
urging alliances among Muslim countries. Western countries,
particularly Israel, are underhandedly trying to stop the
emergence of Turkey as a power. They will use any means
necessary, whether a Gulen type, internal traitors or
another Muslim power against Turkey. Even Iran does not like
Turkey emerging as a sunni power. The Revolutionary Guards
of Iran were having a joyful time at the early part of the
Coup attempt in Turkey. Please click on the link below.

I am confident that Muslims will no longer be hoodwinked and
they will stand solidly against any volatile situation. If
they take a united position and support Turkey, Muslims will
emerge as a world power and will be dealt with equally not
as subservient with foreign powers. We should not be
gullible to Zionist and Western propaganda.
It is ironic that when Turkey placed the country in a state
of emergency, western journalists and Gülenist lackeys
claimed that President Erdogan is like Stalin. However these
same people were silent over the repeated states of
emergencies in France (3 times in the last year and
currently under a State of Emergency), Belgium and Germany.
One example is ex-CIA officer Graham Fuller who compared
Erdogan to Stalin and Joe McCarthy, Graham Fuller wrote a
supportive letter for Gülen's green (permanent residency)
card as published in the Wall Street Journal.
These westerners who criticize are at a high point of
hypocrisy in claiming democratic ideals. Turkey is an
emerging power in the most volatile and resource rich area
of the world. The old western powers wish to maintain their
stranglehold on the region and are not interested in the
people's choices. Whether it was President Erdogan in Turkey
or President Morsi in Egypt, the long hand of western
interference in the internal affairs of foreign nations is a
long and sordid history. The state of emergency in Turkey is
only natural in order to defeat the domestic and
international threats the July 15th attempted coup
revealed.
Alhamdullilah, 99% of Muslims of Turkey courageously came on
to the streets and confronted the coup participants. With
their bare hands they struggled with the coup plotters and
put their shirts in the exhaust pipes of the tanks so the
tanks could not go forward and the exhaust fumes drew the
soldiers out of their tanks. Over 240 people died and close
to 2,000 men and women were injured. Even three women got
into trucks, blocked the streets with the trucks and stopped
the advancement of the tanks. Some women shielded young
protesters to protect them from the soldier's bullets and
the women lost their legs and arms. While these heroic
sisters were interviewed in the hospital, they said they
would not mind giving another leg or arm for the cause.
Not only Turkish but the Syrian Muslims who are refugees
came on to the streets in protest of the coup. They shouted
that they do not want Turkey to become like Syria.
Overwhelmingly, Muslims supported Erdogan. Somalian,
Azerbaijan, Kosovo, Albanian, Jamaat Islam in Pakistan and
the Macedonian people went on the streets in their homelands
and prayed for the success of Erdogan. In Palestine and in
particular Palestinians in Milwaukee supported Erdogan.
Some people say that in the beginning Erdogan and Gulen
worked together. At that time Erdogan did not know Gulen's
intention to use this friendship to infiltrate in the
government for power. In fact, it is coming to the surface
from the coup plotters testimonies that they were used by
Gulen. Many top supporters and right hand people have
separated from Gulen. There are very clear testimonies that
Gulen ordered his supporters in the Army to make the coup.
With the help of Allah SWT, they were not successful.
Note: The latest info is that President Erdogan clearly
stated that if the United States does not return Gulen,
Turkey will not return any person that escapes to Turkey
that the US has labeled as a terrorist. I believe this
strained relation may push Turkey to the Russian block or at
least follow a balanced foreign policy with Russia.
Americans should pressure the Obama administration to return
Gulen, by not returning Gulen the US will make a great
historical mistake. I urge all Muslims to write their
senators and congresspersons to place pressure to return
Gulen to Turkey. USA should not believe Zionist propaganda
that Erdogan is a dictator. If Erdogan would have been a
dictator 99 percent of the Turkish population would not have
responded to a cell call from President Erdogan and combat
with coup soldiers, officers and die for what they believed
in. Furthermore, Erdogan called for the people to be
vigilant and in every city people are willingly standing
vigilant and they are indicating that they will not return
to their homes until they receive a directive from President
Erdogan. This is the tenth day that people are guarding the
streets in every city in Turkey.
Pakistan parliament unanimously passes bill that cracks down
on rape related crimes, and honor killings in step forward
for women's rights in the country.

Jamaat al-Muslimeen's National Islamic Shoora: Greensboro,
North Carolina. July 23, 2016
Once in a while Muslims get the opportunity to openly
discuss and evaluate the situation in America .Seldom do
they get an opportunity to outline what authentic Islam,
based on the Qur'an and the hadith, says about America's
issues. This cenrtral committee meeting in Greensboro was
one of these instances.
The host was Imam Badi Ali, a soft spoken but dynamic
organizer of Muslim communities particularly good with young
people. The shoora committee members felt comfortable with
such a caring host. Prayers were held and delicious food
with Arabic delicacies was supplied by the local Muslim
community.
The shoora leaders who made presentations on key issues
were:
Kaukab Siddique
Badi Ali
Ashira Naim.
Ali Randall
Ayesha Jones.
Abu Talib
Robert Solano
Guest speakers were:
Laila Yaghi
Benjamin Harris
A local charitable group known as Al-Shurah Community
Resources also presented.
A number of local youth activists arrived to help in various
ways.

Fighting rages as Taliban attacks Afghanistan's Kunduz.
Taliban attack police checkpoints in Afghanistan's northern
Kunduz province in a bid to take control of district.
Hundreds of Taliban fighters have largely taken over a
district in Afghanistan's northern Kunduz province as
intense fighting with the Afghan security forces
continues.
After three days of clashes, Taliban fighters took over up
to "65-70 percent" of the Qala-e-Zal district, Afghan
officials said on Wednesday, as a part of an intensifying
wave of attacks across the country.
"Parts of the district have fallen into the hands of the
Taliban, but our security forces are fighting them back,"
Mahmoud Danish, a spokesman for the provincial governor,
told Al Jazeera.
In a statement to Al Jazeera, the Taliban claimed the entire
district had been fallen into their hands. Nabi Ghichi, the
local police commander, told Al Jazeera that the Taliban
attack began in the early hours of Monday, warning that he
had little logistical support to push the armed group's
fighters back.
District governor Mahbubullah Saeedi told the DPA news
agency that 15 Taliban fighters, one Afghan security force
member and one civilian have so far been killed in the
fighting. Another 23 Taliban fighters and seven security
force members have been wounded.
Scores of families have fled the district after the fight
erupted.
"Most of the houses are empty as many fled the ongoing
conflict in the district," Ajmal, a local journalist based
in Kunduz, told Al Jazeera.
"It looks like the fight will continue for the next few
days."
Kunduz is one of the most volatile provinces in the
country's north. The capital of the province fell to the
Taliban briefly last year, before being recaptured by
government forces, and most districts have a heavy Taliban
presence.
Kunduz was threatened again in April, when the attacks were
repelled by Afghan troops working with US forces. US
President Barack Obama announced earlier this month that he
planned to leave 8,400 American troops in Afghanistan at the
end of his term - an increase from his previous plan,
reflecting the difficulty of drawing down the US presence in
the country.
In response to Obama's announcement, Taliban spokesperson
Zabihullah Mujahid told Al Jazeera: "Whether the US decides
to keep [its] troops in Afghanistan or not, whether the
numbers are more or less, we will continue to fight them.
The Afghan Taliban on Tuesday rejected claims that the
movement had been weakened after its leadership transition,
saying the recent lull in operations was due to the holy
fasting month of Ramadan.
July 23: A big march by Shias, known as Hazaras, in Kabul

ISIS Advancing on Three Fronts: Kurds Enter Manbig but are
hit Hard+ Jet bomber Shot Down
[Source: SOHR and wire services]
The Islamic State is advancing on three fronts in Syria:
Hama
Homs
Damascus
But IS faces difficulties in Manbig.
Damascus city, the last refuge of Bashar al-Assad, was hit
by heavy mortar fire on July 24. At first reports 8 people
were killed in the city and 25 wounded.
In the Hajar al-Aswad suburb just outside Damascus, IS seems
to be in complete control and has set up a Sharia court.
In Hama province, east of the city, in the Salamiyah area,
Islamic State fighters and Hizbullah and other shias
supporting the regime are locked in bitter fighting as IS
continues to advance. 15 of the regime supporting troops
were killed on July 23 and 4 captured. Islamic fighters also
suffered heavily and lost 12 killed.
Also on July 23, the slow Islamic State advance past the oil
fields towards Homs city continues with serious clashes
between Shia fighters and Islamic state mujahiedeen. A
regime jet bomber was shot down by IS machine gunners
killings its crew of two including a senior colonel.
The regime has been bombing the FSA mujahedeen in suburbs of
Ghouta abutting Damascas but its troops were not able to
advance.
In the city of Manbig, known as the corridor to Turkey, the
US air force bombed a way open to help the Communist Kurds
to advance. The Kurds entered the city but were immediately
counterattacked by Islamic State fighters. The Kurds have
lost 24 killed, considered a heavy loss, and their funerals
were being held in the villages of Ras -el-ein.
Bombing by the US air force and the Assad air force is
causing a steady loss of civilian lives and destruction of
resources.

Intense Heat Wave Stops Military Operations but ISIS attacks

From July 21 to 24, an intense heat wave gripped Iraq with
temperatures going up to 52 degrees Celsius. Schools were
closed.
The regime and US air force suspended operations but

the northern tip of the city killing 12 officers.
PAKISTAN
Rulers attitude on Kashmir disappointing
People of Muhammad, pbuh, vs. slaves of the West
by Qaiser Sharif
LAHORE, July 23; Ameer, Jamaat e Islami, Pakistan, Senator
Sirajul Haq, has said that Kashmir was destined to be a part
of Pakistan but this appeared to be something difficult
under the present rulers.
Addressing the JI central workshop at Mansoora on Saturday,
he said that Kashmir issue was not the priority of the
rulers who were actually rubbing salt on the Kashmiris
wounds through the exchange of gifts of Saris and mangoes
with Modi.
Sirajul Haq said the rulers' attitude showed that Kashmir
was an issue not of the rulers but of the Pakistani nation
and the Kashmiris, and they were simply trying to befool the
masses through their catchy statements.
He said, had the past and the present rulers of the country
made serious efforts to resolve the Kashmir issue, some kind
of result would have been there by now. He said the
Kashmiris had been struggling for accession to Pakistan for
the last seventy years and their unparalleled struggle and
sacrifices had inflicted a big blow on the face of India.
The Kashmiris were waving the Pakistani flag on every
occasion and burying their martyrs in the same. They had
been celebrating Pakistan independence Day on 14th of August
in a big way and observing India's independence day as Black
Day.
He said if the Pakistani rulers had backed the Kashmiris
freedom struggle, India would never had the courage to play
with the lives of the Kashmiris.
Sirajul Haq assured Kashmir's Hurriat leadership that the
Pakistani nation did not endorse the policies of their
cowardly rulers and that the liberation of Kashmir was at
hand.
The JI chief further said that the plunderers of public
wealth would not escape accountability as the nation was
determined to bring them to the dock. He said the passports
and the properties of the plunderers would be confiscated
and they would not be allowed to flee the country.
Sirajul Haq said it was a golden opportunity for the Prime
Minister to present himself and his family for Ehtisab so
that the big guys looting national wealth did not get an
opportunity to get off.
He said the corrupt elite had been coming to power again and
again and transferring national wealth to foreign countries.
This coterie was responsible for all the socio-economic ills
in the country and the huge foreign debt. He said the class
based education system was the root cause of the growing
poverty. A qualified son of a poor man would only become a
peon or a clerk while an incompetent and undeserving son of
a rich person was appointed head of a department.
He said that the war between the slaves of the west and the
followers of Muhammad (pbuh) was in the final stage and the
success would embrace the honest and God fearing, with
active public support.

Large Protest Against Police Brutality Ignored by the
Media
by Sis. Karin Friedemann [Boston]
On July 13, 2016 a very large demonstration organized by
Mass Action Against Police Brutality took place at the
police headquarters, then walking 3 ½ miles through Boston.
In the beginning speeches, much mention was made (that was
omitted by all media) by his sister of the June 2015 killing
of Usaama Rahim by Joint Terrorism Task Force along with FBI
and Boston police.
As the demonstration proceeded along through the projects of
Roxbury, the crowd swelled to several thousands. You could
not see the end of the demonstration, the street was
completely filled. Protesters eventually shut down all
traffic at the Dudley T station while giving short speeches
and then more speeches at Dudley Square filling every inch
of space. The crowd was very ethnically diverse and in a
very loving supportive energetic mood. When the mother or
sister of a police victim began to cry, the crowd would
shout out words of love and encouragement. One speaker
wondered where all these supportive people were before, when
she really needed them, at the time police committed these
acts.
Recently, Boston Mayor Walsh made statements supporting
police officers without also stating clear support for the
lives of Bostonian civilians. There is a corrupt "Irish cop"
mafia culture in Boston. However, Boston is also known for
being reserved and not instigating police riots and
Police lined the crowd on bicycles but did not interfere
with the crowd. In one instance, a white bigot rushed into
the crowd and punched a Franciscan monk. A supporter of the
march chased the attacker off. The police did nothing. The
crowd was such that the police had to step aside. It was a
historic day. Bostonians don't usually have large
protests.

It's Kumbuya Time, Again "Black Lives Matter" Selling
Out!
Do you Remember the Lone Ranger and Tonto!
by Sis. Aisha [Jamaat al-Muslimeen]
New York City - "An attack against law enforcement is an
attack against all of us," is the quote that came right out
of Pres. Barack Obama's mouth after the killing of police
officers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana by a Black Marine. There
is an old joke where White comic book hero the Lone Ranger
and his Native American side-kick Tonto, which is Spanish
for idiot, are surrounded by angry Native Americans. The
Lome Ranger turns to Tonto and says, "It looks like we're in
a lot of trouble, old friend" and Tonto turns to the Lone
Ranger and says, "What do you mean 'we'' Paleface?" I asked
a similar question when Pres. Obama made the statement,
"...an attack against all of us." I asked, what do you mean
"us?" He has never made such statements when Black fathers
have been assaulted or murdered by police in front of their
children.
Many people believe that the house slave was always
responsible for foiling slave revolutions. It was the
mulatto (biracial) slave, too. They were a threat because
they identified with their oppressive, powerful,
slave-owning White parent, not the weakened Black enslaved
one. This can be said of biracial people, today. This has
not and will not always be the case, it simply takes a high
level of awareness and a large dose of humanity for one to
come to hate oppression, whether he is being subjected to it
or it's someone else. Pres. Obama sounds like a brainwashed
snake. He is the example of the emasculated mulatto Black
male, who goes along to get along rather than raise his
voice for fear of retribution from his White family members
and constituents.
Remember, Pres. Obama's security forces executed a mentally
ill Black woman, on White House grounds, in a her car while
her baby daughter was in the back seat, in October 2013.
Strange how other people can jump the White House fence with
or without weapons and be arrested, peacefully? Of course,
Pres. Obama is not going to join ranks with Black people
against police criminality. He sees himself as a powerful,
oppressive European leader! Of course, being an oppressive
Black leader does not help him either, nor anyone else!
A telling sign of Pres. Obama's weakness is how he behaved
after receiving backlash for saying to police as having
acted "stupidly" in the illegal arrest of his friend,
Historian Henry Louis Gates, Jr. in his own home. Pres.
Obama's response to the criticism from the nation's police
force? Invite the White racist arresting officer for a beer.
It was kumbuya time!
Now, it is kumbuya time for Black Lives Matter! Last week,
members of Black Lives Matter were having a barbecue with
police officers in an apparent photo opportunity. I guess,
because many police officers want the FBI to put Black Lives
Matter on its terrorist organization list. So, it is kumbuya
time. If this were an effort for both groups to recognize
each other's pain of loss then, fine. But this is never the
case, Many police officers only know their pain of loss and
do not recognize anyone else's. So, I do not support this
barbecue.
Let's not forget that the main goal of Black gay groups,
such as Black Lives Matter, Color of Change, etc is to gain
prominence among Black folk by replacing the NAACP or Urban
League. Then, they can promote their gay agenda in the Black
community. The Black gays do not have the same leverage as
the White gays do and that is exactly what it is because
homosexuality is not favored among many Americans, in
general. They feel it is being forced on them.
WNBA Fines Players
The WNBA (Women's National Basketball Association) issued
$5000 fines to its New York, Indiana, and Phoenix teams and
$500 per player for the use of protest shirts worn during
pre-game warm ups. The warm ups had messages that were in
support of slain officers and murder victims of police.
Adidas is the sponsor of these athletic warm ups and
although the Adidas logo was visible, the league found it
necessary to fine the teams for violating team uniform
rules. WNBA President (and female figure-head, HNIC, etc)
Lisa Borders stated the typical double talk about supporting
players rights to free speech but also having to enforce
league rules.
Many players were outraged!
Phoenix Mercury's Mistie Bass (Rock 'n' Roll Legend Chubby
Checker's daughter) responded: Don't say we have a voice and
then fine us because we use it. #notpuppets #cutthestrings.
Many other notable players, such as New York Liberty's Tina
Charles and Indiana Fever's Tamika Catchings, were very
quick to point out how the league backed the players wearing
rainbow colors on their warm ups in support of the victims
of the Orlando gay club shooting. Why is supporting Black
victims of police shootings so incredibly controversial?
Now, the uniform code needs to be imposed? Is this league,
with majority players of African-descent, only for the
promotion of its gay pride nights while discouraging any
concerns regarding police murdering unarmed citizens across
America?
Owing to protests from WNBA players, some NBA players, and
activists, the WNBA announced, on 7/23/2016, that it would
rescind the fines and work with the WNBA Player's Union
during the Olympic break. The outcry against the league was
overwhelming. Players protested by not taking any questions
about basketball but, only on other issues. Lisa Borders
takes her orders from Zionist ring leader and NBA
Commissioner Adam Silver. I find it refreshing that players
did not acquiesce to league demands and actually questioned
the leagues hypocrisy in supporting the gays and not Blacks,
who make up most of the leagues players. Kudos. Not all of
these players support homosexuality.

Zionist Jews Claim they have the Right to Make Cartoons of
the Prophet, pbuh, because they Believe in Freedom of
Expression. CODOH reminds them how far that is from the
truth.

Letter to PEN

Dear PEN-
Greetings from the Committee for Open Debate on the
Holocaust. We are reaching out to progressive organizations
to encourage defense of free speech and open discussion. We
are asking people to Speak Up for Free Speech.
Few people know (especially outside Europe) that asking
questions or expressing doubt of "Official History" has been
made a felony in many Western Countries. These laws are
generally directed at what is called "Holocaust Denial."
The penalties in France can be up to five years in jail. In
Austria the maximum sentence is 20 years. The numbers are
low but there is a constant persecution of artists,
comedians, and scholars under these laws.
There are many reasons why laws which criminalize discussion
and debate are wrong. CODOH is collecting people's comments
regarding these laws. We invite you to participate with a
short video for us to post. See our video on YouTube

The enemies of tolerance are not always the same. Nor are
their targets. However, one certain sign of bigotry is an
unwillingness to allow others to speak.
