Volunteers are Needed to Counter Zionist Media Blitz
Those Happy with Bush's Eid Message (!) are Humiliating U.S. Muslims

"O you who believe! If a corrupt person comes to you with any news, ascertain the truth, lest you harm people unwittingly and afterwards become full of repentance for what you have done." (The Qur'an 49:6)


Dear readers: assalamu alaikum (peace be with you)

As you know, the Zionist media are on the war path, pounding away every day against Islam and Muslims under the guise of "war on terrorism." Policies coming down from Wolfowitz at the governmental level, stories written by Krauthammer at the print level, take the shape of smoothtalker Emerson on TV screens.

O'Reilly of Fox News has been carrying out techno-lynchings of Muslims on his banal show. Dr. Sami Al-Arian, a respected member of the Muslim community, very friendly with non-Muslims, even with Jews, LOST HIS TENURED JOB after O'Reilly tried to connect him to terrorism.

On the other hand, Muslims' self-appointed leaders have become so weak that they dare not say anything. They are waving the flag to prove their loyalty (and keep their jobs). These men (and a few women) were happy to receive President Bush's EID MESSAGE. Can you imagine the arrogance of the man who sends an Eid message after bombing Muslims through ALL OF RAMADAN, every night, and then saying: "EID MUBARAK dear Muslims!" {As NPR radio has conceded, a mosque was hit by Bush's flying broncos leading to the death of 65 worshippers in Ramadan. Those were two 2000-pound bombs. Osama bin Laden's December tape referred to this bombing during Taravih prayers.}

Muslim leadership standards have fallen very low. Two examples: A sister has written to us that at boxer Muhammad Ali's birthday party, in the presence of his wife, a near naked dancer {Halle Berry?} was flaunting her private parts in his face and neither the husband nor the wife objected. Then you have Mike Tyson shouting obscenities! Do we have any standards left? Eid with the mass murderer of Afghan children and all this ..... do you expect leadership from these people?

THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF MUSLIMS WHO WANT TO SERVE THE UMMAH instead of appointing themselves as leaders.

It is time for them to come forward and use their abilities to defend the Ummah in this great country.

We need volunteers for:
1. Committee to defend Imam Jamil al-Amin. The Justice Fund for his team is very low on money. Please help.
2. Committee to Free Shaikh Omar Abdel Rahman. This great scholar and spiritual leader of international jihad is being held in solitary confinement in Rochester, Minnesota.
3. Committee for the Rights of Oppressed Women. We must defend the right of women to wear hijab, niqab and burqa if they so wish. We support Baitul Salaam's (Atlanta) work to stop domestic violence.
4. Committee against racial profiling. Nearly 5000 Arabic-speaking students are being targetted by the FBI. Another 150,000 Arab men are being pursued by the INS for deportation.
5. Committee for Reparations for Africa and for African-Americans. Africa is the Mother Continent from which the Founder of Makka, Hajira, Allah be pleased with her, came. We must send funds to help the people of Africa who suffered 400 years of slave raiding which provided free labor to America,
6. Committee to stop attacks on Islamic charitable work. Do you know that three totally non-political Islamic charities have been closed down at personal orders from Bush? {Holy Land Foundation, Benevolence and Global. Global's director has been arrested.} Somali money transfer al-Barakat has been shut down leading to tremendous losses for the Somali brothers and sisters. A Pakistani mosque in New York was raided by FBI with dogs because of charitable funds collected there.
7. COMMITTEE TO DEFEND the RIGHTS OF ISLAMIC POWS: This would include the 158 in Guantanamo Bay and Br. Abdul Hamid (John Walker). Historian David Irving says, Adolf Hitler treated his Russian prisoners better.
8. MEDIA WATCH. Every one of Emerson's, Krauthammer's and the whole tribe of Zionist Jews' attacks should be answered. Can you write precisely, briefly and to the point? Join our efforts.
WE HAVE DEMONSTRATED THE ABILITY TO ANSWER ZIONIST PROPAGANDA but we are not yet able to reach millions of people. For a sample of our work, read our critique of Saira Shah's attack on the Taliban. Saira Sha's video was used to prepare the grounds for the assault on Afghanistan. Our rebuttal is titled:
"CNN on TALIBAN and WOMEN: LIES, WHITE LIES and DAMN LIES."
Read it! It might motivate you to join the struggle.
