Imam Badi Ali condemns attempt to put Sudan's President
Bashir on trial. Muslim world must stand with
Sudanese president.
July 14: Jamaat al-Muslimeen leader Imam Badi Ali [North
Carolina] urged Muslims to realize that America is playing
god by manipulating the UN and the prosecutor of the world
court to accuse the President of Sudan. This move is a
continuation of the method which was used against President
Saddam Hussain.
Imam Ali said that Bush, Blair, Olmert and their
allies should be put on trial for genocide in Palestine,
Iraq, Afghanistan and Somalia. They have no right to sit in
judgment on Sudan when they themselves have committed the
worst crimes of our era.
Imam Ali urged Muslims to look critically at the UN Security
Council. It denies proper representation to the African and
Muslim nations and supports the aggressors who have
veto power.
Let's not make the mistake many Muslims made about Saddam. We
must stand UNITED with Sudan and oppose all aggression and
intervention in Sudan.

Thinking outside the box:
Most Muslims do not Know that Muhammad, pbuh,
originated the basic idea of modern medicine that there is a
cure for every disease.
Narrated Abu Huraira, may Allah be pleased with him, the
Prophet ( may peace be upon him ) said: "There is no
disease that Allah has sent down, except that He also has
sent down its treatment."

Our America: by New Trend's Media Monitor
Cynthia McKinney is a Genuine Candidate
[Nominee of the Green Party]
[Excerpted from an article by Glen Ford]
McKinney speaks as both a former U.S. Representative and a
movement activist, one of the architects of the
Reconstruction Party's Power to the People Platform,
which declares:
"We need an end to all wars and occupations by U.S. forces,
including in Iraq and Afghanistan. We need an immediate
cessation of funding for war. We need prosecution for all
individuals guilty of violating the law, including having
committed or authorized crimes against humanity, crimes
against the peace, torture, or war crimes. We need a complete
renunciation of the pre-emptive war doctrine. We need an end
to all wars and war's utility. We need to dismantle the
apparatus that implements schemes of regime change around the
world, and that instead assists in self-determination of
all peoples."
McKinney has acted as a sentinel for Africa, on guard against
U.S. recolonization of the continent. She correctly regards
AFRICOM as a threat to the region. "More than likely, this
force will be used in just the same way as Plan Colombia is
used -- to police dissent and punish the innocent solely for
pecuniary reasons. The last thing Africa needs is AFRICOM,
U.S. soldiers, or a School of the Americas-type relationship
with Africa."
When Obama is not carrying imperial water in the bullying of
weaker nations, he is silent on burning global issues -
especially those of keen interest to African Americans.
The December 2006 U.S.-instigated Ethiopian invasion of
Somalia, which according to the United Nations created "the
worst [and still ongoing] humanitarian crisis in Africa,"
elicits not a peep from Obama. In fact, the only comments
from Obama on Somalia that we have found are his complaints
about pictures taken during a trip to his father's homeland,
Kenya, depicting Obama in the ceremonial tribal garb of the
overwhelming Muslim Somalis.
McKinney has repeatedly denounced the U.S. overthrow of
Haiti's elected government in 2004, the kidnapping and exile
of President Jean Bertrand Aristide, and Brazil's and the
United Nation's role in occupying the country on behalf of
the Americans.
Next two items by Kaukab Siddique
U.S. Corporate-Zionist Media have gone beyond all limits:
It's becoming a bunch of home movies, ignoring a nation of
340 million
July 14, 2008: They interview each other. They extol each
other. They mourn each other. It's not private TV. This is
the major media, feeding lies to the American media, talking
to each other, filling every slot with Jewish elites and
other hangers on of Israel. It seems as if:
1. Devotees of Jesus do not live in this country.
2. Followers of Islam who oppose the war do not live in
this country.
3. There are are no independent thinking
African-Americans.
4. There are no opponents of Israel.
5. There are no no poor or lower middle class people
[other than those who want handouts].
6. Everyone thinks homosexuality is normal.
7. Women love to take their clothes off. Those who don't,
must be ugly.
8. There are no Latinos in this country other than criminals
and "aliens."
As for mourning, we can understand that when an employee
dies, there should be mourning. However, we see employees of
the corporate-zionist media being mourned as celebrities, day
after day, given more coverage than American forces fighting
and dying in Afghanistan and Iraq. Tim Russert was a good
journalist who lacked the courage to question Israel's
legitimacy or to explore crimes committed against Afghans and
Somalis. Tony Snow looked good in a suit but he was a servant
and spokesman of one of the most little-minded presidents in
American history. Day after day, the plaudits went on.
Have the American people lost all right of reply that this
nonsense can go on around the clock?
One might say "Don't we see Obama every day? Isn't he Black?
Wasn't Hillary speaking out?" No dear reader, these are part
of the INNER CIRCLE of the power structure. Hillary made a
few waves [tiny ones] and was treated like dirt.
["Bill Clinton's wife."]
Muslims should oppose glorification of Homosexuality,
Degradation of Women, Insults Against Jesus and Mary,
peace be on them.
The Zionists have successfully, in most states over America,
made homosexuality protected by law. Criticism is called
"homophobia" which is equated with racism and anti-semitism.
Exploitation and degradation of women is the norm. Adultery
is hardly noticed as news. Perversion is "interesting." Even
child molestation is becoming old news.
Muslims and Christians should join hands to call TV programs
of a great variety which are extolling sex, violence and
homosexuality. Call them and say: Stop these violations of
decency. Stop catering to the perversions of a
tiny minority.
How powerful the Jews have become that they openly insult and
ridicule Jesus and Mary! Muslims should wake up and oppose
this abuse. If the Jews can insult Jesus, pbuh, they can even
more shamelessly ridicule Muhammad, pbuh.
Women are potentially mothers, revered in the Qur'an second
only to Allah Almighty Himself. Living in this country, we as
Muslims must oppose the degradation of women. Wake up
Muslims! Tomorrow this wave of perversion and evil will enter
our homes. It is already lapping at the door.
Homosexuality is also being transmitted as "okay" by
concealed Jewish-corporate groups to Pakistan, Egypt and
other Muslim countries. These groups claim that they are
Muslims and try to give the impression that homosexuality is
widespread in Muslim countries and should be recognized. It's
the same tactic as was used in USA.

Dr. Sami Al-Arian Granted Bail [but still not freed]
In a setback for the government, Dr. Sami Al-Arian was
granted bail by Judge Leonie M. Brinkema today. Over the
objections of the government and the pre-trial services,
Judge Brinkema agreed that Dr. Al-Arian was not a flight risk
and no danger to the community. The government has suggested
that it may now block release by having Immigration officials
hold Dr. Al-Arian for deportation — despite the fact that it
is trying to hold him for years under a criminal sentence
rather than deport him.

Momin's Case Backfiring on Government of Canada
July 9: "The Crown's star witness in the trial of the first
person charged under Canada's Anti-terrorism Act told an
Ottawa court Wednesday that he never discussed a fertilizer
bomb plot with the accused. The admission at the trial of
Mohammad Momin Khawaja came during the defence's
cross-examination of Mohammad Junaid Babar, a former al-Qaeda
operative turned police informant." [Canada Press]
Comment: There is no proof that Babar was ever an al-Qaida
operative. He is facing 70 years in prison, so he decided to
become an informer to say what the government says. The
governments of UK, USA and Canada are working to tandem to
convict foolish Muslims who talk too much.
As for the Canadian claim that Momin's little cell phone
device was a a "detonator," the following cross examination
of a police officer in the case "detonated" that claim which
is central to the case:
"July 10: But in a tense earlier exchange, the police officer
conceded that the five-volt version of the Hi-Fi Digimonster
seized from the Khawaja home was not powerful enough to
detonate anything.
"What's more, you found no detonators at Momin Khawaja's
home, isn't that correct?" charged Mr. Greenspon
[defense attorney].
"No, I did not," replied Sgt. Fiset.
"No explosives."
"No I did not."
"No ammonium nitrate fertilizer. Nothing."
"No I did not.
"What was found at the Khawaja home was a radio transmitter,"
that was incapable of setting off a bomb, "and that's where
it stopped," said Mr. Greenspon.
"At a technical level, I agree," replied the officer.] [The
Ottawa Citizen, July 11]
American Muslim Challenges Department of Homeland

American Muslim Veteran On Docket U.S. Supreme Court
Down through the ages, men have found the justification for
the ill treatment of their fellow man, in the name of
"protecting their governments, or the people of the society
at large.
Something is wrong when we can justify taking away one human
beings basic rights, and his protection under the law, for
unjust persecution.
Where ever or when ever we witness such gross injustices we
must respond accordingly. To keep silent is criminal in and
of it's self.
For the past 3 years and 11 months, I have been in pursuit
of that illusive entity known as "justice", this journey has
thus far yielded the following results.

CNN's Atrocity Propaganda: Nick Robertson's Lies linked to
Condemnation of President Bashir Engineered by International
Jewry & Imperialism
July 13, 2008: When the CNN program began, it showed
demonstrators supporting President Bashir of Sudan. The
presentation was so cleverly done that it gave the impression
of being against Bashir, so much so that CNN had to give a
[very] brief note that these were Bashir supporters!
CNN reporter Nick Robertson is supposed to be a top CNN man
but he broke all the rules of genuine journalism to accuse
Sudan of committing rape on a mass scale in Darfur. He made
the claim, repeatedly, that every woman in Darfur has been
raped, supposedly by forces allied to the Sudanese
government. How he found that EVERY woman has been raped is
anyone's guess. This kind of irresponsible incitement is
typical of Jewish-Zionist propaganda coming out of CNN.
Robertson does not know the Darfur language. His cameraman
would show a woman and show a man talking about her. After a
few seconds, he would go into 'voice over' and claim that she
was raped. From there he moved quickly to claim that every
woman had been raped!
Behind CNN's atrocity propaganda is the fact that
International Jewry is getting ready to have President Bashir
of Sudan proclaimed a criminal guilty of genocide. These
voices have come right out of the so-called Holocaust Museum
in Washington, DC., so make no mistake about the
Jewish-Zionist hand at work. [This writer is not
anti-semitiic. The Jewish forces are hard at work, taking the
Darfur propaganda right into the American school system. It's
an effective way of deflecting attention from the genocide of
the Somali, Palestinian, Iraqi and Afghan people.]
Pakistan [2 items]
Lal Masjid cleric warns against prolonging issue
[Courtesy The Post, Peshawar, Pakistan] [The Post is a
secularist paper. Hence it uses terms like "cleric" for
Islamic scholar or Imam - Editor, New Trend]
Staff Reporter
ISLAMABAD: Lal Masjid's Naib Khateeb Maulana Amir Siddique on
Friday said that the government would be responsible for any
violence if it did not settle the Lal Masjid issue soon
because people were losing patience.
He was addressing a protest rally held to press demands for
the release of Maulana Abdul Aziz Ghazi and reconstruction of
Jamia Hafsa, at Lal Masjid Chowk after Friday prayers.
The protestors were carrying banners and placards. They
chanted slogans against President Musharraf, accusing him of
killing hundreds of students in the Lal Masjid operation.
They also called for forming an inquiry team to investigate
the matter. Amir said that people pinned high hopes on the
new government but it looked non-serious in resolving the
issue. He said that an action plan would be evolved at the
Ulema Action Committee meeting scheduled to be held
on Sunday.
"The coalition parties got a mandate on the Lal Masjid issue.
Now if the government puts the issue on the back burner, it
would have to face the music," he warned.Talking to The Post,
Amir vowed to continue the struggle started by the Ghazi
family until the Islamic system was promulgated in the
country.He demanded the government release Maulana Abdul Aziz
Ghazi and other detainees and rebuild Jamia Hafsa as per the
Supreme Court's verdict.
The security arrangements for the rally were very poor. Only
a few policemen were visible.
LAHORE, Jul 13:
Jamaat-e-Islami ameer Qazi Hussain Ahmad
warns: any aggression on Pakistani soil would be
countered with full force.
These views were expressed by the Jamaat leader while talking
to newsmen and addressing the party workers at Markaz Islami
Peshawar on Sunday. Qazi said if America intervened inside
Pakistani territories, masses will resist them with all
available force. Qazi said "every American move will be
reciprocated accordingly. Their animosity will be
reciprocated in the same coin, while their friendship will be
welcomed in the same spirit," he said.
Qazi demanded of the Americans to stop antagonism against
them, let them live honorably besides withdrawing American
forces from Afghanistan and Iraq immediately and ridding the
Palestinians from Israeli aggression.
Qazi demanded of the rulers to review their policies and
particularly reverse the pro-American policies which had
badly damaged the national security, unity and solidarity.
Qazi said there was no danger of Taliban's take over anywhere
in the country, adding that the only danger country faced was
from government's west oriented policies.
He said we are facing great challenges on internal and
external fronts, since enemies want to deprive us of nuclear
capabilities and our Islamic ideology, which could only be
met by restoring constitution on the Oct 12, '99 position and
cementing total unity in our ranks.
Qazi asked both PPP and PML-N if they were sincere in
restoring supremacy of constitution and parliament they
should get rid of Gen Musharraf without wasting any time.
He expressed wonders as to why the ruling alliance is not
impeaching Gen Musharraf despite having the required majority
in the parliament, adding that it has been the talk of the
town that both parties have returned to power through a
secret deal with Gen Musharraf which required them not to
impeach and touch him, and in lieu of that he exonerated
Asif Zardari of all corruption cases under NRO.
Replying to a question, Qazi Hussain Ahmad said the PPP
regime is in real fix as it striving to please Washington and
the masses at the same time. They could not define true
direction for them. They are devoid of clear line of action
and policy
To a question about movement against the government, Qazi
Hussain Ahmad said such action would serve nothing but give
the army a chance of intervention as a result of this clash.
The country is already suffering from the army take over to
great extent. We want to see the country leading towards the
real democracy. The great challenges facing the country
require unity in the ranks of the nation.
Referring to the skirmishes on LoC in Neelum Valley area
between Indian and Pakistan army and US direct attack in the
settled areas of NWFP are alarming. Instead of understanding
the planning of enemy, he said, we are taking pride in
aligning with our own enemy in their war on terror. He urged
the masses to prepare themselves for meeting
such challenges.

Muslim Protests Against the Controversial
Textbook in Kerala [India]: Varied Views on
Nuclear Deal
by K. Hamza [India]
This refers to the letter of Prof. Koya, published in the
New Trend.
The report on the Muslim protests against the controversial
Social Science Textbook for students of class vii in Kerala
was based on the incidents which took place in the State
between June 1 to 20, and it was later that the Hindu and
Christian organizations joined hands with statewide protests
unleashed by various Muslim organizations. The protests and
ensuing clashes were given unbiased coverage by the national
and local newspapers in the country.
The Muslim protest was mainly on the Communist Party of India
(Marxist)-led government's hidden agenda of propagating
party's ideology among students. Not only the Indian
Union Muslim League, but the following organizations have
joined the campaign against the Ministry of Education's
academic skullduggery. The Christian Church, all the major
Muslim groups regardless of political difference and the Nair
Service Society (NSS)-the quasi- political social umbrella of
the Hindu Nair community have come out against the Textbook.
Admittedly, some passages are positively included in the
book, but the other portions do not fall into this category.
For example, the lesson under the caption, "Jeevan, the
Casteless" offends the religious sentiments of Muslim
community. Further the lesson inculcates the renaissance
value of religious tolerance in the children.Another lesson
in the textbook depicts Jawaharlal Nehru's irreligious
attitude as he was rejecting any religious ritual on his
death. This will also breed atheism in the young minds. The
Dheevaara Sabha, another Hindu organization in the State
raised the complaint that some portions in the text are
anti-constitutional, anti-national and anti-reservation. They
point out that as per Section 15(4), 15(5) and 16(4) of the
Indian Constitution, reservation based on caste and religion
was allowed. So the lesson titled "Jeevan, the Casteless" is
an attempt to undermine the concept of reservation and
related concession that the oppressed and backward
communities, including Malabar Muslims (Mappila) are enjoying
now in the education and professional fields. It is,
therefore, inevitable and mandatory that a student gives his
caste and religion while getting admitted to a school.
The controversial lesson on "Jeevan, the Casteless",
emphasizes on the vision of Sree Narayana Guru, the
thinker-savant of Kerala, "Whatever be the religion, suffice
it if it makes a better man"- It means that religion is not
important, but man can have virtue without religion. This
will prompt students to think cynically on the question of
existence of religion.
Now let us turn to the issue of Indo-US Nuclear Deal. The
Indian Union Muslim League, which is at the helm of agitation
against the controversial textbook, is an ally in the
government of Manmohan Singh-led United Progressive Alliance
and does not protest against the Deal. The proposed Nuclear
Deal is a hotly debated issue with a blazing ferocity,
igniting a fusillade of criticism in the Indian political
circles. Not only Muslim League, but several Muslim
organizations hold different views. Two eminent Muslim
scholars representing the reputed Muslim schools of the
Deoband and Bareilli in Utterpradesh, north India, Moulana
Abdul Khaliq Madrasi and Moulana Tauqeer Reza Khan Barelvi
support the view of Nuclear Deal having no relation with the
Muslim cause. In Lucknow, the working committee meeting of
the UP unit of Jamiat Ulaema –I-Hind said the Deal was the
prerogative of the politicians and scientists. Moulana
Kalimullah KhanQasmi, secretary of the organization said the
Muslims should devote attention to the education of
their children.
The Kerala Muslim Jama'at Council has deplored the
Indo-Nuclear deal as it is inimical to India's interests.
There are some other Muslim bodies who are also apprehensive
of the deal as India is facing pressure from the U.S. to sign
the pact, but any fissure in the coalition of secular parties
would lead to Hindu fascist forces coming to power. The Deal
is anchored in the Hyde Act which has so many prescriptive
clauses binding India's sovereignty. Some Muslim
intellectuals and leaders are waiting to deplore or applaud
until the Manmohan Singh government discloses the terms and
conditions of the nuclear agreement in parliament.

War News: Afghanistan: Classic Taliban
Attack. U.S. Troop Wiped out In Spite of Air
Support
July 13, 2008: In rugged Kunar province, Taliban fighters,
lightly armed and moving with coordination, trapped and wiped
out a heavily armed U.S. special forces unit, killing 9 U.S.
troops and wounding 15. The Taliban drew out the Americans
till they were out of range of their main base. When the
Islamic fighters swooped down, the U.S. troops called in air
support. According to the BBC, the U.S. Apache helicopters
and jet fighters attacked the Taliban. However, it appears
from after-battle situation that not one Talib was killed.
The Taliban, very highly motivated, Islamic fighters,
apparently hit the U.S. troops between waves of American
air attacks.
The Taliban victory is hurting the U.S. and has suddenly
brought the war back to American TV because here the Taliban
were not using martyrdom operators or roadside bombs but
taking on the toughest American troops frontally. [A brief
segment of the Taliban attack video was shown on CBS TV. July
14. The Takbeers were audible
Wardak Province and Most of Afghanistan in
Taliban Hands: Classic Guerrilla Warfare:
Surrounding Towns from Countryside
July 13, 2008: The BBC is reporting interviews with Taliban
fighters in Wardak province which outflanks the capital city
of Kabul in an envelope of rugged territory. According to
this report, there are 2000 Taliban fighters in the Wardak
area and their infiltrators are hitting Kabul from there. The
BBC admitted that just about ALL of the Afghan countryside is
now in Taliban hands. New Trend has reports that the cities
are controlled by NATO forces and by Communist and Shi'ite
Afghan supporters, mostly corrupt war lords, of Karzai.
[Mao would have been proud of the Taliban. The classic
guerrilla warfare strategy of surrounding the cities by
taking over the countryside, which he advocated, is being
implemented by the Taliban.]
Jalaluddin Haqqani's Son killed in Fighting
Karzai troops.
Omar, the 20 year old son of shaikh Haqqani, was killed in a
battle with Karzai mercenaries on July 9. Haqqani was a
veteran of the battle against the Soviet Union. With the U.S.
invasion in 2001, he joined the resistance. Omar was one of
his six sons from his Afghan wife. He also has children from
his Arab wife. Omar is being hailed in Afghanistan as a hero
and a martyr.
The number of women and children killed by the U.S. air
force in the wedding party it hit in Nangarhar
province has risen to 47. We earlier reported 27 killed
including the bride.
Martyrdom Operator Hits Karzai Supporters
July 13: At least 21 people were killed, including 3
