Who is Vice President Harris?
Zionist Vision: A Palestine without Hamas and Islam
Harris and Israel want a Palestine without Hamas and Islam.
Muslims should look critically at the slanted new American
language on Gaza. Harris laments the suffering of
Palestinians. She wants to end their lack of food and water,
but she fully supports Israel's right to defend itself.
Listening to Harris, it would seem as if Israel is in mortal
danger. With the most powerful military in the Middle East,
with a steady supply of weapons from the US, nothing could
be further from the truth. The danger comes from Hamas,
which has no air force, tanks, artillery or self-defense
mechanism. Hamas has Islam, and is aware that Palestine
belongs to Palestinians.

Israeli forces attacked a refugee camp in
Tulkarem, Occupied West Bank. They killed 5 unarmed people,
and tore up the area, including roads and building
structures. The Israeli military attacked the town of Khan
Younis in Gaza and killed 121 unarmed people, including 24
children. Several hundred people were injured and the entire
population was forced to flee at short notice.

Also. in the West Bank, Jewish settlers set olive
groves on fire.
Meanwhile in Washington, Netanyahu was welcomed as a "friend
of 50 years" by Joe Biden.
July 27
Latest Israeli air strikes in Gaza killed 50
civilians including 15 children and 8 women.
Who is Kamala Harris?
She has visited Israel several times. Her husband, Doug
Emhoff, is Jewish. Interestingly, when the couple visited
Israel together in 2017, it was only Emhoff's first visit,
but Harris's third. Of all US Vice Presidents, she was the
first to place the Jewish mezuzah in the Vice Presidential
residence. She also speaks regularly at the annual
conference of the Zionist lobby, AIPAC. [Source: Times of

Ageism and the American President
Was "Genocide Joe" Biden a 'Victim' of Ageism?
By Sis. 'Aisha
Jamaat al-Muslimeen New York City
I was discussing President Biden's recent withdrawal from
the presidential race. It was a bombshell move, but it was
not surprising given the growing, insurmountable pressure
for him to withdraw.
My mother suggested that President Biden may have been a
victim of ageism, but she believes that after a while, Biden
will let out a huge sigh of relief and enjoy his time with
his family. It is not easy being President of the United
States, and my mother pointed out the toll the presidency
has had on past presidents.
Bill Clinton and Barack Obama's hair went from just a touch
of gray to nearly stark white! And these were the youngest
presidents. By the time these presidents have completed a
second term, they look tired and weary. Also, keep in mind
that Biden is in his seventies. The amount of stress he is
dealing with would affect him even more than if he were a
younger man.
Kamala Harris' Nomination to Black America's Detriment
Oh no, another Black U.S. President?!
It was under President Obama's rule that Black Americans
endured lynchings at the hands of white citizens and police
officers. The only difference now, compared to legalized
lynching a century ago, is that the white citizens were
convicted. It has been a struggle to get any charges brought
against racist cops.
White America went on a murderous rampage, taking the lives
of over 10,000 black people, after it was discovered that
Tuskegee University founder Booker T. Washington had spent a
night at the Executive Mansion (it was called the White
House later).
These same racist attitudes became apparent during the Obama
Administration, which did absolutely nothing!
Political parties nominate candidates to help that party's
agenda. It is easier to mobilize voters from marginalized
communities to vote for someone like them. It is much more
difficult for two white male candidates to distinguish
themselves from each other. The voter who thinks might
become apathetic.
What is Harris's position on human rights issues: women,
nonwhites, and Zionism? It is probably the same as Biden's.
I don't recall her challenging him on any of these matters.
It will be the same old thing no matter who is in
office.
Bangladesh
Bangladesh is facing a strange tragedy, which was
unexpected. President Hasina is trying to give favorable
treatment to people in her party under the pretext that they
supported Bangladesh in the 1971 War. She stated she will
give scholarships to those who supported her party. The
reason she gave is that they supported Bangladesh against
Pakistan.
The students protested that this was wrong, and that
scholarships should be awarded based on merit. Hasina
responded by setting the military on them. The army started
firing on the students. By official count, 139 students were
killed. The students, most of whom had never previously had
an encounter with the military, were terrorized. But they
refused to back down.
Finally, the Supreme Court of Bangladesh said the
President's actions were wrong. The Court ordered that 95%
of all scholarships be awarded on merit. The remaining five
percent would be awarded according to Hasina's wishes. It is
heartening to see the people of Bangladesh fighting for
justice, as Islam teaches.
Breaking news: In a major infringement of civil liberties,
the government has arrested the three student leaders who
were coordinating the protests, although they were injured
and in the hospital.
Pakistan
In Islamabad, newly elected Jamaat-Islami leader Naeemur
Rehman has found an unusual way of protesting: a sit-down
strike rather than standup protest. His group has been
protesting against inflation, rising prices, and government
mismanagement.
Why is Pakistan not worried about Kashmir or about
Khalistan? The Sikhs are very friendly to us. Why are we
neglecting them? We should not be fighting with people in
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) who want Sharia. (Islamic law is
the basis of the creation of Pakistan. Why are we fighting
those who want Islamic Law?)
Why is Imran Khan in prison? Why is his private life being
misinterpreted to make it look like he is living in sin?
Imran is the right man to challenge the power of the
military. Every Pakistani should appreciate it.
Muslims should think about liberating Kashmir. That should
be our main concern. Pakistan has huge army which should be
used to liberate Kashmir, and to help Palestine. It's a
shame that instead Pakistanis are fighting people who want
Sharia.
