From Ijaz: FACT ABOUT EXPLOITATION OF
WOMEN
IN
ISRAEL:
Prostitution is a $450
million yearly "national industry" in Israel. There are 250 brothels in
Tel Aviv alone. Article coming up. [And these
Jewish
predators of humanity have
agents throughout the world spreading the idea that
Islam
is against women!]

[Atlanta]: PROTEST AT TOP
AIPAC
MEETING: Sisters Lead from Sis. Motisola Malikha Abdallah, Secretary General of
Jamaat al-Muslimeen
motisola_3@hotmail.com
---------------------------------------------------------
Driven, diverse, vocal and unified is the description of the antiwar
protest held Sunday, October 6th in Atlanta Georgia to protest war on
Iraq,
military violence in
Palestine
and the national summit meeting of AIPAC. In the most
upscale, richest neighborhood in Atlanta, a diverse group of activists
staged a three hour protest in front of the Swissotel where AIPAC was
having
its national meeting. AIPAC, American Israel Public Affairs Committee,
is functioning as an extension of the Israeli government here in
America
to influence the media, communities, politics and college campuses. AIPAC
used millions of its dollars here in Atlanta and Alabama to oust
congressional
candidates like Congresswomen Cynthia McKinney earlier this year.
Three hundred and fifty of us peace activists put a damper on AIPAC's
meeting outside their window even during the brief downpour of rain.
The non-diverse, small group of Israel/US supporters across the street
waving American and Israel flags were no match for slogans from the very
diverse antiwar peace-activist.
For every slogan of "stop killing our children," "a home for Palestine,"
"Zionists
are terrorists", "Blacks, Whites, Native Americans, Hispanics,
Muslims, Christians, and Jews united for peace," the Jewish detractors
quickly lost steam.
A few pro-US/Israel supporters gave us the finger which was returned with
the two-finger peace sign which put them to shame. Out of all the
testimonies about the evils of US policies, the most heart-wrenching
testimony came from a Native American peace activist. He stated that
their holocaust never ended and that his people are on the verge of
extinction in
just a few short years because of America's war and genocide against them.
This is why he and many African and African American speakers stated
why they
supported a home for the Palestine people and no war against Iraq.
The real success of the protest was in itself: Muslim sisters on the
front line with children standing next to Muslim brothers for a common good
and forbidding the evil. Muslim communities from every race coming
together,
bonding and interacting as one people like was displayed at this
protest is the only way we will defeat the war on Islam.

CAIR
PUBLICIZING
ADL
MESSAGES:
Have you noticed that CAIR is publicizing the messages of the most
vicious Jewish organization in America, the ADL [the Anti-Defamation
League
of the Bnai Brith]. This time CAIR has publicized an ADL message in
which ADL
claims that it too is against the attacks on Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) by
Jerry
Falwell. This is the height of hypocrisy on the part of ADL to claim
that it
is not anti-Islam. It is one of the few organizations which shamelessly
acclaimed the life imprisonment of the Islamic scholar
Dr. Omar 'Abdel Rahman
and has been trying to silence all Muslim, Arab and African-American
dissent
under the rubric of "anti-semitism." Once more CAIR is doing reverse
da'wah by projecting the message of the enemies of Islam into the Muslim
communities. What greater disinformation can there be than for the ADL
to claim that it is not against Islam. [For that matter, even Sharon
claims he is not against Islam, just as Bush is not.]

MASSACRE IN PALESTINE: Israeli attack on a crowd of civilians killed 16
and injured 105 civilians in Khan Yunis area of Gaza on Oct. 7. When the
injured
were taken to hospital, the Jews rocketed the hospital. On Oct. 8, a
12-year
old Palestinian girl was shot and killed by the Jews. Observers say, the
Zionist Jews have put themselves outside the pale of humanity by
occupying
Palestine and then by murdering its people. Murder of children by the
Jews is almost a daily occurrence in Palestine. Not one of these murdered
children is
shown on American TV. According to Bush, Sharon is "a man of peace."
Sharon will be in the White house again next week.
Under International law, Islamic forces have the right to hit and destroy
an occupying force like Israel. Observers say that if Saladin emerges
tomorrow
to hunt down the Jewish occupiers, all the oppressed people of the
world will rejoice over the downfall of these dastardly tyrants.
Why is Hizbullah silent while Jewish tanks stand in Palestinian streets?
Is Iran waiting for the destruction of Iraq and Palestine, after
Afghanistan,
so that it can create a sectarian empire? There has not been a peep out of
hizbullah during the Second Intifada.
