A.N.S.W.E.R.
Coalition Calls for Anti-Inauguration Rallies on January 20.
$270 Million a Day being Spent in
Iraq
while 3 Million
Americans
are Homeless.
Hundreds of thousands of Americans are planning to protest President
Bush's
inauguration on January 20, 2005 in Washington, DC along Pennsylvania
Avenue and Constitution Avenue.
The planning committee of A.N.S.W.E.R presented its program for the
"Anti-Inauguration" on December 18.
More than 50% of Americans oppose America's foreign policy. Many of
them are young and fiery opponents of President Bush. The movement is
led by Ramsey Clark who has called for the impeachment of Bush for
violation of the U.S. Constitution and for war crimes in Iraq,
Afghanistan
and Guantanamo Bay.
The A.N.S.W.E.R. representative said that one out of every eight
Americans are homeless while the U.S. is spending $270 million
EVERY DAY on the war in Iraq. Even one day's expense in Iraq would
provide housing for 4 million people.
The attorney for A.N.S.W.E.R gave a detailed survey of the government's
attempts to stop the anti-Inauguration rallies without giving an open
"No" which could result in a court case.

Editorial
U.S. Muslims,
Christians and Christmas: How to Respond? From the Easy to the
tough issues.
"...And nearest among them in love to the believers will you find those
who say, 'we are Christians' ...'
[The Qur'an 5:82]
Muslims should not hate or reject anyone on the basis of religion.
Islam
is a very powerful religion and we don't have to be against anyone who
follows a different way.
We Muslims have a special fellowship with Christians as we are the only
people outside Christianity who accept Jesus [peace be on him] as part
of our faith.
Muslims in America should realize that Christianity in America is based
on FAITH and the acceptance of Jesus (p) as the Savior. So,
-
Do not debate with average Christians about their faith. This is their
great holiday. Wish them happiness, peace and joy.
-
Do not debate the Bible with average Christians. They do not know much
about the Bible. They take it on faith. Point-by-point arguments in the
Deedat style do not do anything other than to create bitterness.
-
Remember that not only Jesus, p, but Mary, p, is among the most revered
personalities in the Qur'an. Tell average Christians that we admire and
revere Mary,p, called Maryam in the Qur'an.
-
We should oppose consumerism which has shifted attention away from Jesus,p, to Santa Clause and non-stop shopping.
-
We should oppose Jewish attempts to remove the name of Jesus,p, in
Christmas celebrations. This holiday should be about Jesus, p, and
Jewish attempts to insult Jesus,p, should be opposed.
-
Was Jesus, p, really born on December 25? That question should only be
discussed with Christians who want to discuss it. Do not push it on
Christians that this is a pagan holiday. Here perception is much more
important than reality.
-
There are Christian missionary types who should be debated and taught
[in a calm, nice, friendly manner]. If you are too nice to them they
might think you are ready to accept Christianity.
-
Tell those who ask, or those who insist on debate, Jesus, p, is NOT the
son of God. In fact the trinity concept is mentioned in only ONE verse
in the totality of the 4 Gospels and that is an interpolation. . The
Christian gospels themselves do not make a big deal of the Trinity
concept.
-
There is NO historical evidence that Jesus,p, was crucified. The
crucifixion is mentioned only in the four gospels and not in any sources
outside them. There are no historic eyewitnesses.
-
The four gospels, Mark, Mathew, Luke and John are not verfiable as
authentic by any historical or documentary evidence. Even their
authorship is unknown. The four names are attributions made in later
times.
-
There is no evidence outside the Gospels that Jesus, p, rose on the
third day.
-
The existence of Jesus, p, is only marginally reported in a couple of
Jewish and Roman histories and these too do not contain any eyewitness
account.
-
The stories of Jesus, p, as known today are probably extensions of oral
traditions. He was undoubtedly a man bringing truth from God and working
great miracles. His greatness was such that his personality took on
mythical proportions till he came to be remembered by his followers as
the son of God, if not God incarnate.
-
For 30 years after his death, nothing was written about him. It was all
oral tradition, easily embroidered. Then emerged the first of the
gospels, now attributed to Mark.
-
Paul took over the message of Jesus and gave it a totally different
direction from that of the entire line of Messengers of God. Paul
never met Jesus, p, but he is the real founder of modern Christianity.

What do Jews Really Want? Ayn Rand's Brook Pulls no Punches.
"Destroy their homes, their economy, their mosques. Reduce their Cities to Dust."
By Buut Shikan [Idol Breaker]
On December 17, 2004 an educated Jew, Yaron Brook, a Ph.D from Austin,
Texas, appeared on the O'Reilly Show on behalf of the Ayn Rand institute,
a famous Jew who wrote a book titled Atlas Shrugged.
Yaron Brook was unhappy with the extent to which America has used its
military power in Iraq. He thought more should be done. He wants the
Muslims to be hit harder. We should destroy their homes, their economy,
their mosques, reduce their cities to dust, Brook declared calmly.
He was exactly the picture of Nazi murderers whom the Jews have concocted
in many movies.
The holocaust of the Muslims being enacted under Jewish direction has
this element of banality in it: the idea that if their cities are
reduced to dust, the armies of Islam will surrender and the
green banners of Islam will be lowered. How stupid can Yaron Brook be?
He wants Fallujah to be reduced to dust. Poor fool does not know that
Fallujah has already been reduced to dust with NO AFFECT ON THE SPIRIT
of ISLAM.
Even O'Reilly, veteran Islam hater that he is, was appalled at the
Ayn Rand vision of "what should be done." He tried to point out that
such American violence might get the Muslims even more fired up! Brook,
however, insisted and O'Reilly, very politely told him: "I disagree."
HERE YOU HAVE UNVARNISHED JEWISH THINKING ABOUT ISLAM and MUSLIMS.
As honest observers point out, as long as the THUG ENTITY known as
"Israel"
remains planted illegally in the middle east, illegitimate child of
superpower treachery, the hope for peace will remain a mirage.
---------------------------------------
Thought of the Day:
WHY THE SUDDEN "SADDAM TRIAL" TALK?
According to Lancet magazine, more than 100,000 Iraqi civilians, mostly
women and children, have been killed in bombardment by the U.S. air
force since March 2003. These figures do not include the uncounted
thousands of civilians killed in Fallujah in the recent offensive.
Under the sanctions and embargo imposed on Iraq, more than a million
Iraqis, mostly children, died a slow death of malnutrition, disease
and lack of medicines.
To cover up this holocaust of the Muslims, the U.S. government,
coached by the
Zionists,
is trying to deflect world attention by bringing up the alleged crimes
of President Saddam Hussain from the time when he was being used by the
U.S.

TUNED OUT
David Mindich, author of TUNED OUT: WHY AMERICANS UNDER 40 DON'T FOLLOW
THE NEWS says that 75% of Americans who watch FOX TV, O'REILLY and the
like and listen to Rush Limbaugh think that the U.S. military is doing
the right thing in Iraq [in spite of Abu
Ghraib and Gauantanamo Bay revelations.]. 80% of these misled
Fox TV
audiences actually believe that Saddam was involved in
9.11
and there is a connection between Saddam and Al-Qaida!
[O'Reilly justified even the video taped shooting of an old, unarmed,
near-death Iraqi in a mosque by a U.S. marine.]
----------------------------------------------------------
Why Blame
Syria?
Closest Possible Cooperation with the U.S.
[by our
Media
Monitor.]
Imad Moustapha, Syrian ambassador to the U.S., was on
C-Span
TV channel on November 26, 2004. He provided some information which
many Muslims don't know:
* There is close cooperation between the U.S. intelligence services
and Syria on the Iraqi border.
* The Syrian government has a close relationship with Iyad Allawi, the
Sh'ite puppet installed in Baghdad by the U.S. military.
* Syria genuinely wants peace with Israel. In this connection Jewish
American SENATORS have visited President Assad.
* Medeleine Albright, Secretary of State under Clinton, who is notorious
for her comment that the death of a million Iraqi children under
sanctions was "worth it" has visited Syria 100 times in the last
10 years.
* There are 500,000
Palestinian
refugees in Syria but their representatives are only allowed to
have offices. No action against Israel is permitted.
[So why all this propaganda against Syria? It's a way of creating new
pressures on Assad. Like the Saudis he has to work harder to remain
in power.]
NEW TREND NOTE: In about 30 years, Syrian forces have not fired EVEN
ONE SHOT at Israel.]

AFGHANISTAN [Special report from
Pakistan,
except for item 1.]
DASHED HOPES:
On December 13, the U.S. TV outlets reported that Taliban Ameer Mullah
Omar's security chief Mullah Naqeeb, had been captured, and had led his
captors, working for the U.S., to arrest other Taliban leaders, such
as Mullah Abdul Qayyum.
The story began to unravel when a Pakistani newspaper, Ummat, pointed
out that Abdul Qayyum is actually a supporter of Prof. Rabbani's Jamiate
Islami. He has been living peacefully in Kandahar for several years and
his arrest must have been a mistake.
A couple of days later, Lt. Gen. Lance Smith, Deputy Commander of the
U.S. Central Command, admitted during a Pentagon hearing that the
report of the arrests of Taliban leaders "cannot be confirmed."
FIRST USE OF SAM 7 by TALIBAN
December 16. A U.S. aircraft which took off from Shindand airport in
Farah province was brought down by the Taliban. Seven U.S. troops were
reported killed. Taliban spokesman Haleemi
claimed that a SAM 7 missile was used to bring it down.
The U.S. admitted the loss but attributed it to "technical reasons."
Two weeks earlier, the U.S. had reported the crash of a small CASA-212
plane over Bamiyan province in which 6 U.S. forces were killed,
including 3 officers. It was attributed to technical reasons, but now
sources close to the airport outside Kabul have called Pakistani
newspapers to say that the plane was shot down by a "rocket."
[It appears that the Taliban are bringing out some weapons hidden away
from the era of the war against the Soviets.]
-----------------------------------------------------
NEW ATTACKS by TALIBAN REPORTED:
On December 16, in Zabul province, Taliban ambushed 4 vehicles carrying
Afghan troops armed by the U.S. Two of the vehicles were destroyed,
10 troops and 2 Taliban were killed in the fighting.
In another ambush, in Khost province, the Taliban killed 6 policemen
working for Kabul and wounded the police commander.
Earlier the Taliban carried out a night raid on a U.S. base in
Paktika province, killing 2 Afghan troops working for the U.S. and
wounding 8.

Received from Senator Khurshid Ahmad's
Press Secretary Rao Muhammad Akhtar
Musharraf Regime Ignoring
Indian
Water Grab in Chenab River
Islamabad (December 15, 2004) Senator Prof. Khurshid Ahmad has expressed
his dismay over Pakistan Government's apathy on construction of 450
Megawatt Baglihar Power Project on Chenab River. According to Prof.
Khurshid Ahmad "The Indian intransigence in not accepting Pakistan's
repeated requests to stop the gross violation of the Indus Water Treaty.
The work on this project would affect the water flow to Pakistan and
aggravate the water crisis in the country. This construction began more
than four years ago and is expected to be completed around March 2005".
He further stated "Pakistan has totally failed to have any meaningful
dialogue with India on this issue and has shown unpardonable weakness
by not invoking the Treaty Provisions relating to seeking international
and neutral intervention to get it stopped. The latest meeting expected
between India and Pakistan scheduled for early December has also been
postponed".
The learned Senator asked the Government to answer: "Why has Pakistan
fallen into Indian trap of dillay-dallying and not acted firmly and
swiftly to seek international intervention? Are we waiting for the project
to be completed? According to Prof. Khurshid Ahmad this represents a case
of total failure of our Foreign Policy." He concluded by saying that
"This failure is criminal and the President and his team must be made
accountable for it, as
they have pinned all hopes on friendship and normalization with India."
