al-Amin on Philadelphia's 900amWURD radio. Her guest, Sis.
Karima al-Amin, Imam Jamil's wife, took half an hour to
present the salient features of the Imam's struggle in

for the Imam to be brought back to Georgia from far
away Colorado.
Dr. Kaukab Siddique was invited by Sis. Nabila Bey to call in
and he commented on Sis. Karima's presentation and asked a
series of questions. He mentioned Jamaat al-Muslimeen's
support for Imam Jamil at the Jericho march and the need for
a MASS MOVEMENT in support of the Imam whom he calls the Imam
of America.
The following information was provided on the program for
those who want to support the Imam:

Sisters Speak in Atlanta Georgia, organized by sis.
Hadayai Majeed.
by Sis. Nadia Auxila [Baltimore, Maryland]
The October 11 event's focus was on spreading awareness about
domestic violence and domestic violence advocacy,
HIV/AIDS/MENTAL HEALTH, LIVING A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. Being
Muslim does not mean being poor. It means victory
over defeat.
The setting was very informal which made it personal and the
atmosphere loving and comfortable.
Sr. Hadayai Majeed spoke of how she began her organization in
1997 by establishing a shelter with 3 other sisters. They met
for iftaar and brainstormed on how they will help other
Muslims in need. She spoke of their struggle and how she had
to stand with a box to collect funds for the
shelter's expenses.
She spoke of how grateful one sister was even though the home
was not suitable for living and how the sister made the home
livable for her and grateful for having a roof and alive to
be there.
The 10/11/08 Sister speaks educational forum was held to
address the difficult issues that the community and Masajids
don't talk about SUCH AS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND HIV/AIDS IN
THE COMMUNITY.
Sr. Nafisa has an organization called SISTER2SISTER that
REACHES OUT TO ABUSED WOMEN and ALSO HAVE A NATIONAL HOT
LINE. She stressed that they are in need of volunteers to
answer the hotline. She began her organization SISTA2SISTA
INC IN 2000.
Sr. Maria 16 years old Speaks about peer pressure and how to
battle it. she is a member of More for youth organization 13
-18 years old members. she spoke of how to stay out of
trouble is to stay busy at all times doing some type of
community activities and involve in some type of sport or
recreational atmosphere. and family support is important,
believing in Allah and Praying together with your family and
reading the Holy Qu'ran and discussing how you feel about the
verse you have read.
AlhamdulliAllah she is a very remarkable young sister.
Sr. Alethia spoke about HEALTHY LIVING: The way to healthy
living is by eating right and by getting rid of toxins from
your body. you do that by detoxing how do you detox? you
should eat foods that are high in ALKALINE such as fruits,
beans, nuts and leafy vegetables. Developed a program that
teaches you how to eat , how to become healthy and
stay healthy.
Sr. Jeanette: Muslim dost not mean poor from poverty to
financial success. she began her business by making business
cards and natural soap, lotion, oils , grafic designs while
working for a company that does graphic designs. She was so
successful and persistant that now she owns and operate A
GRAPHIC DESIGN & PRINTING COMPANY CALLED ZAKIA & ASSOC.
She also mentioned that she has been blessed and now she can
assist others to begin their own business. she also mention
your way to success is that you have to have a passion in
what you are doing. She says services is wealth also be open
to barter.

Sr. HedayaiMajeed spoke on HIV/AIDS AWARENESS
. There are at least 8 to 15 strands of HIV Virus. Go to
google search CDC
to find out more about the different strands of HIV. She
mentioned that HIV is in our community and that people are
getting married thinking they do not need to get tested.
For instance a child may be born from a mother with the
virus. However the child is a carrier and everything is fine
and does not tell his intended that he was born of a HIV
Virus mother and the myth that he is okay. They come to find
out after they marry that the wife got the virus from him.
Sr. Hedayai stressed that we need to be tested before we get
married. She also stressed what every Imam we are comfortable
with to let them know that this issue is very important and
it should be addressed in our community. and not to ignore it
because it is destroying innocent lives. The problem is Lack
of education and thinking that we as Muslims are protected
from contracting HIV. Visit her website
www.baitulsalaam.net
My visit to Atlanta was very informative. It was a pleasure
to have met everyone and they also place more motivation in
my heart and soul to continue assisting those who are in need
in our community at large. It was inspiring watching Sis.
Hidayia at work and how she transformed everything without a
hitch even though some things did not turn out how she
expected them to be. Masha'Allah I am pleased to have met
her. Just being around her I learned a whole lot and I pray
that we continue networking with each other insha'Allah.

This letter was published in April 2007 but W.D. Muhammad
refused to answer.
Appeal to Imam W. D. Muhammad: Stop Dividing the Muslims
of America: A Long Time Supporter Cries Out Against W.D.'s
Moves to Keep out Immigrant Muslims
As-salaam-Alaikum,
Dear Imam Mohammed,
First, allow me to tell you a bit about myself., I was a
follower of your father, the Hon. Elijah Muhammad, and upon
the transition you lead in 1975, accepted the true teachings
of Al-Islam and have been a supporter of yours ever since.
However, there have been some disturbing developments in
recent years which I have begun noticing, and felt it
necessary to write to you. In recent years, it seems that the
community has become more and more focused upon your image
and personality. There seem to be contradictory visions and
paths for the community's future.
Take 'Savior Day' for example. What purpose is served by
outright banning Non-Blacks from it? At last year's program,
I witnessed many people, mostly Muslim, actually escorted off
the property and rudely treated by the security [i am
speaking of Detroit, Cobo Hall].
We expected an apology or an explanation from your office.
However, your office did no such thing. This is quite
disturbing! Are Non-Arab Muslims banned from performing Hajj
because of their nationality or color? How is such treatment
Islamic, or representative of The Qur'an and the Sunnah?
I can no longer see the depth of Islamic wisdom and
application in your lectures. It now seems to be only about
your personality. I cannot be in a Cult, but as you have
been instrumental in my own development in Al-Islam, I appeal
to you to speak out against the deification taking place, and
to issue a public statement explaining the reasoning behind
these New Racial Bans at your address.
Sincerely,
Br. Muhammad [California]
Toben's Arrest: A New Assault Against Free Speech
Mark Weber -- Institute for Historical Review
http://www.ihr.org/other/oct08toben.html
... "Denial" laws criminalize even factual or truthful
statements that "play down" the wartime treatment of Europe's
Jews, thereby violating ancient and universal standards of
justice. Justice applied selectively is not justice. It is a
form of injustice ... Germany's effort to impose its peculiar
limits on free speech outside its borders has potentially
harmful consequences for Internet freedom of expression
everywhere. Because the Toben case has such far-reaching
implications, people in many countries will be closely
watching how British authorities decide to handle Germany's
extradition request.
Colin Powell and Obama: A disaster in the making
YEAH, BUT ........A man with the blood of millions on
his hands
by Jeff Archer [San Diego, California] [Exclusive to
New Trend]
For some reason, many of Barack Obama's supporters live in a
state of denial. To those of the "left" who support him, many
do not agree with much of his political stance, but they
ignore the facts. When I talk to them and point out the
variances between Obama's views and theirs, most say, "Yeah,
but ... " Then they talk of him changing once he inhabits the
White House.
The facts differ. In a couple of years. Obama has gone back
on many of his views; he has not hinted that he would be the
be-all-and-end-all president of those whose politics lean
toward the left.
Obama came on the scene as the most genuine anti-war
candidate. In the past year, however, he said he would keep
U.S. troops in Iraq if there was a threat of Al-Qaida. Then,
he said he would enhance the U.S. presence in Afghanistan and
possibly invade Pakistan. To make matters worse, the once
vocal opponent of "the surge" in Iraq recently stated that
the surge "worked beyond our wildest expectations."
Add to the list the pro-Homeland Security Act enhancement
that Obama voted for, yet for months prior to the vote he
said he opposed it. How about drilling for oil off the U.S.
coastline? The once ardent opponent of such actions is now a
supporter of offshore oil drilling.
Foreign policy is definitely not one of Obama's strengths. He
realizes this so he put all his eggs in Israel's basket. For
the Palestinian cause, he said that the Palestinians have no
right of return to Israel. Then he added that Jerusalem
should be the capital of Israel, despite many Israelis
accepting the current designation as an international city.
Then, he stole the words of a U.S. segregationist governor as
he proclaimed, "Israel today, Israel tomorrow, Israel
forever." I find it quite disingenuous for Congressman Lewis
of Georgia to accuse the Republican presidential campaign for
using the tactics of George Wallace when his own candidate,
an African American, plagiarized the former
Alabama governor.
Despite all these illogical assessments, Obama saved his
worst decision for last: he has put an invitation forth to
have Colin Powell become a part of his administration, if
elected. That's right, Colin Powell, the architect of two
wars against Iraq. A man with the blood of millions of
innocent Iraqis on his hands. A man who qualifies as a war
criminal of the highest level.
A few days ago, Powell publicly endorsed Obama. Within hours
of the announcement, Obama gave Powell the invitation.
According to the October 20, 2008 article, "Obama: Powell
Will Have a Role in Administration," by Laurie Kellman of the
Associated Press:
With or without a formal title, Colin Powell will have Barack
Obama's ear if the Democratic presidential candidate wins the
White House in the Nov. 4 election, the candidate
said Monday.
"He will have a role as one of my advisers," Barack Obama
said on NBC's "Today" in an interview aired Monday, a day
after Powell, a four-star general and President Bush's former
secretary of state, endorsed him.
"Whether he wants to take a formal role, whether that's a
good fit for him, is something we'd have to discuss,"
Obama said.
It is curious why Obama has rejected the endorsements of
various individuals, such as Louis Farrakhan, yet he quickly
invited a lying war criminal, who is a registered Republican,
to join his administration.
Powell is the person who, on August 3, 1990, told George Bush
I: "If you finally decide to commit military forces, Mr.
President, it must be done as massively and decisively
as possible."
Powell is the person, who, when asked about the number of
dead Iraqi soldiers and civilians who were massacred in the
ground phase of Desert Storm (after the administration
publicly said that retreating Iraqis would not be attacked):
"I don't have a clue and I don't plan to undertake any real
effort to find out."
Powell is the person, who, several months after the 1991 Gulf
War, stated that his goal was to "make the world scared to
death of the United States."
Despite all his bravado and war-mongering, Powell outdid
himself on February 5, 2003 when he gave the most outlandish,
lie-filled presentation ever put forth at the United Nations.
He had all kinds of charts and illustrations to prove his
point that Iraq was in possession of myriad chemical and
biological weapons. The only problem was that they all
depicted lies.
Once it was proven that Powell had deceived the world, he
called it "the lowest point in my life." Powell has publicly
stated that he was conned and he is upset that his legacy
will be tarnished. However, he has never uttered one word of
sorrow for the million-and-a-half Iraqis who have died since
March 2003 because of his lies. They aren't worth as much as
his legacy. (See "Part Three: Occupation and Resistance," in
The Mother of All Battles for a comprehensive account
of Powell's performance at the UN on February 5, 2003.)
The losers from the Obama/Powell tag-team will be Arabs.
Obama, other than telling the Palestinians that their gripes
against Israel are bogus, has not mentioned anything about
the Arab world. Powell has masterminded the deaths of three
million Arabs. The reasons for the left to say, "Yeah, but,"
are quickly running out.
UNTOUCHABILITY-AN INHUMAN PRACTICE IS STILL PREVALENT
IN INDIA
by K. Hamza [India]
India claims to be the largest democratic country in the
world. Even after 61 years of Independence, the inhuman
practice of "untouchability" is still prevalent in the
country. The upper caste Hindus, the Brahmins, pretend and
propagate as they are the only divinely chosen people on
earth by birth so that all other castes are to be under their
domain. In the temples, only upper caste Hindus are allowed
to conduct prayers. So also, lower castes are not allowed to
worship in the temples which belong to the Brahmins and their
entry to these temples is a taboo. Dalits, the untouchables,
have separate temples and burial grounds. Dalits are being
persecuted and humiliated community in India. It is awfully
humiliating that hey continue to be served food in eateries
at separate place in different set of tumblers. They are
forced to live in desperate poverty in slushy, refuse-strewn
townships and gritty rural backwaters.
A section of the 600-metre long wall, erected across
Uthapuram village in Tamil Nadu,(former Madras province) in
south India, dividing two communities-the Upper caste Hindus
and the oppressed lower caste called "Dalits", was pulled
down on 6 May,2008 by the government authorities under
pressure from agitators against the caste discrimination and
oppression. The wall was erected 18 years ago, denying access
to Dalits' to other side where the upper caste Hindus were
living. The wall was also electrified to deter night-time
"intrusion" of Dalits.
India's Brahmins, the upper caste, are a micro-minority of 2
per cent, and they are descendant of Aryans who invaded India
in pre-historic time. They first invaded north India and
later entered to the south where they had been resisted by
the indigenous inhabitants, called Dravidians, who constitute
85 per cent of the country's population. The lower caste
Hindus are also divided into innumerable castes and
sub-castes based on the structure of caste system, in which
Brahmins occupied atop being supreme and others on a
descending order of contempt. The Hindu scriptures have
classified them to the lowest in the hierarchical ladder by
virtue of birth .the word "Dalit"means the "oppressed" or
broken in the Hindi language. The Hindu scriptures state that
birth in a low caste is considered on a predestined fate.
Most of the Dalits are assigned to do scavengers' duties such
as carrying human excreta to the dumping place and clean dry
latrines in the rural localities.
Dalits are blatantly victimized by members of higher caste on
the assumption that they are chosen by God as supreme and
pure. On many occasions, National Human Rights Commission had
sent notice to the State governments concerned, but no action
had been forthcoming from the authorities. Even if they lodge
complaints with the local police, but the law and order
Department would not show enough verve and nerve to wipe out
this social evil. Members of Dalit community have to flee the
villages to escape inhuman treatment and oppression by the
upper caste feudal landlords under whom they are living as
bonded labourers.
True, India is a Republic and Democratic nation where all
citizens, regardless of caste ,religion, region and language,
are equal. The Tamil Nadu Untouchability Eradication Front, a
progressive organization, has been fighting against this
social evil. The media have applauded the event on May 6, as
the "Wall of Shame", which divided people on caste basis for
more than 18 years, and which symbolized caste oppression and
discrimination, was pulled down, providing access to Dalits
to public through fare. Even today, caste discrimination is
taking hold in India's most benighted places. The demolition
of the wall had infuriated the Brahmins, bukt the Dalits
refused to yield. Since the government is encouraging Dalits
and other backward classes to have education by incentives
like fee concession and other aids, most of them are now
educated and they reject the hierarchical ethic of caste
system and Hindu vedic virtue of fatalism as a reason to
tolerate their deprived condition.
A few years ago, Dalits at an entire village in Tami Nadu
embraced Islam in protest against the untouchability policy
held by the upper castes, as the Dalits had convinced that
Islam is the only religion that treats all humans as brothers
in faith.
Obama's Jews: They Shape, run and Control his Campaign
from Start to Finish
[From the Israeli paper Ha'aretz. Published for educational
purpose only. Not for profit.] [McCain too has Js attached to
his campaign, just in case, but New Trend is excerpting only
the Obama J's because these are impressive and are running
his entire show.]
David Axelrod: Chief strategist and media advisor for
the Obama campaign, he has harnessed grassroots support
through "viral" media, new technology and emphasis on the
theme of change.
Steven Bob and Sam Gordon: The two Reform rabbis from the
Chicago area founded Rabbis for Obama, which has
persuaded hundreds of rabbinical colleagues to go on record
by name supporting the candidate. The group's influence on
the Jewish electorate has been difficult to gauge.
Laurie David: The global-warming activist and producer of "An
Inconvenient Truth," starring Al Gore, she is ex-wife of
"Seinfeld" and "Curb Your Enthusiasm" creator Larry David and
one of Jewish Hollywood's most prodigious fundraisers.
Ira Forman: The executive director of the National Jewish
Democratic Council, he is Matt Brooks' counterpart.
Barney Frank: The Massachusetts Democratic congressman is one
of the most visible, outspoken liberals in the House. He is
openly gay and a frequent target of pro-McCain commentators,
particularly on Fox News, where, because of his role as chair
of the House Financial Services Committee, he has been said
to bear crucial responsibility for the sub-prime lending
crisis. He played a key role in negotiating the Wall
Street bailout package.
Ed Koch: The former New York City mayor is still a gold
standard for Jews of a certain age. He backed Bush in 2004
and Hillary Clinton during the primaries. Now he's for Obama.
Sherry Lansing: The first woman to head a major Hollywood
studio (Paramount), she is a major Democratic donor
and fundraiser.
[The brackets below this have been added by New Trend.]
[Wall Street is Jewish . Hence Obama's efforts to bail it
out.] Henry Lehman: A Bavarian immigrant who settled in
Alabama in 1844 at age 23, and founded H. Lehman, a general
store that, by accepting raw cotton in lieu of cash, would
later lead to commodity trading in cotton. In 1850, he and
his brothers Emanuel and Mayer formed Lehman Brothers, which
became one of the first and most powerful investment houses
on Wall Street. Lehman Brothers' spectacular collapse in
mid-September, the largest bankruptcy in American history,
triggered a worldwide financial panic that, more than any
single factor, may determine the outcome of the 2008
presidential election.
Mik Moore and Ari Wallach: Launched Jewsvote.org, utilizing
high-tech methods to counteract Web-borne attacks on Obama.
The group also sponsors The Great Schlep - a campaign to
get grandchildren to visit grandparents in Florida, to
persuade them to vote for Obama.
Eli Pariser: He heads MoveOn.org, a liberal on-line
advocacy group that has raised large sums for
Democratic candidates.
Martin Peretz: The editor of The New Republic, he wrote an
influential article entitled "Can friends of Israel - and
Jews - trust Obama? In a word, Yes."
Penny Pritzker: She is the national finance chair of the
Obama campaign. A billionaire executive, pioneer Obama
supporter and scion of a well-known Jewish mega-donor family,
she has taken flak over the degree of her involvement in a
the failure of a bank driven by sub-prime mortgages.
Ed Rendell: The governor of the key swing state of
Pennsylvania, he is former head of the Democratic National
Committee and a top Democratic campaign spokesman.
Denise Rich: The socialite and ex-wife of disgraced
billionaire Marc Rich is a Democratic megafundraiser.
Dennis Ross and Dan Kurtzer: They are the center-right and
center-left anchors of Obama's Middle East
advisory staff.
Robert Rubin: The top Obama economics advisor has
unsurpassed knowledge of the workings of Wall Street and was
treasury secretary in the Clinton administration.
Dan Shapiro: A former Clinton administration National
Security Council official, he is a senior Mideast policy
advisor and Jewish outreach coordinator for the Obama
campaign. He is said to have co-written Obama's speech before
AIPAC (the pro-Israel lobby), in which the candidate declared
"Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel and it must
remain undivided" - a statement Obama later
partially recanted.
Sarah Silverman: A "shock comedian," she served as video
spokeswoman for The Great Schlep (see Mik Moore, above). Her
monologue spawned a counter-clip from veteran comic
Jackie Mason.
Alan Solow: The Chicago lawyer is active in the Jewish
community and in the Conference of Presidents. He has been an
Obama supporter for a dozen years.
Jon Stewart: As host of the satirical TV news program "The
Daily Show," he has become perhaps the most listened-to
liberal voice in the nation. The New York Times called
Stewart's program "a genuine cultural and political force."
Barbra Streisand: The superstar singer is a Jewish-liberal
icon and mega-fundraiser. She endorsed Hillary Clinton
in the primary race and has backed Obama since the Democratic
convention. She also headlined a Hollywood fundraiser in
September, which included a $25,800-a-plate dinner.
Robert Wexler: A key Obama surrogate, the Florida congressman
has campaigned extensively in the effort to shift the
electoral vote-rich Sunshine State from the McCain column to

handed over to USA & Genocide in Afghanistan.
Palestine and Kashmir are Central to the World of Islam: U.S.
and Pak attacks in Tribal areas are Root of Current Unrest.
Invest in Pakistan.
LAHORE, Oct 24: Jamaat-e-Islami ameer Qazi Hussain
Ahmad has stressed that unless Muslims are treated with
justice the whole world will continue to suffer from unrest.
Justice is the key to establish world peace and there is no
alternative to that, he said while addressing the inaugural
session of the JI congregation comprising a huge gathering of
charged and slogan chanting party workers and supporters
gathered at Minar-e-Pakistan from all parts of Pakistan and
different countries Friday evening.
Qazi Hussain Ahmad reminded the world that Islam is the
religion of peace and it was spread all over the world not
through violence and suppression but through love, tolerance
and justice. He praised the enthusiastic and courageous JI
workers for making it possible for hundreds of thousands of
people from across the country and world to gather at this
place to renew their energies for spreading message of Islam
and supporting each other in the face of enemy conspiracies.
He said by holding a peaceful congregation under uncertain
circumstances, JI has proved to the world that it is a peace
loving party and its workers are not frustrated but ready to
sacrifice everything for establishing justice and peace.
Qazi said the rulers who call themselves democratic and
elected representatives of the people, must respect the
resolution of joint parliamentary session calling for halting
military operation against tribal people and holding
negotiations for a lasting settlement. He said rulers must
respect the people's mandate to reverse Gen Musharraf's
policies and get out of the US coalition, formulate
independent policies according to the masses' aspirations and
restore independent judiciary led by chief justice Iftikhar
Mohammad Chaudhry.
Qazi sahib said PPP government and president Zardari should
realize that Musharraf government has now gone and people
want reversal of his pro-American policies. They should take
a similar U-turn from Musharraf's anti people policies like
he took one against Taliban to join hands with Americans.
Qazi sahib said government should realize that if fighting
against America is difficult then fighting against their own
people is more difficult. He asked government to hold
Musharraf accountable for his crimes including killing of
thousands of Jamia Hafsa girls, handing over of hundreds of
innocent Pakistanis to America, and killing of millions of
Afghans by supporting American army in invading Afghanistan.
Qazi Hussain Ahmad demanded of the rulers to support
Kashmiris' freedom struggle and their right to self
determination guaranteed by UN resolutions by clearly
declaring solidarity with Kashmiri freedom fighters. He asked
president Zardari to take back his reported statement calling
Kashmiri mujahedin as terrorists.
He said Islamabad should reassure Palestinians that Pakistan
supports their freedom struggle wholeheartedly and at their
back, and they will find us at the forefront of any move for
establishing supremacy of justice and peace in the world.
Qazi said rulers must establish the image of Pakistan as the
torch bearer of justice and peace.
Qazi said Muslims are the most victimized and oppressed
nation in the world since they are being killed, displaced
and deprived of their homeland, and yet they are being termed
as terrorists and extremists. Qazi sahib asked the crowd
which is the biggest terrorist in the world and came a
roaring reply, "America, America." He said rulers should take
it as public opinion that America is the biggest terrorist in
the world and allying with terroritst for so-called war on
terror is the biggest folly. He said America is attacking and
killing tribal people from one side while Pakistani army is
killing them from the other. He said Pakistan's support to
America is the root cause of major unrest in the world since
it enabled Washington to attack Afghanistan and Iraq defying
the world opnion and trampling all laws of justice and norms
of democracy and decency.
Qazi said unless rulers present themselves before justice,
justice will never established in the country. He expressed
regrets that people of the country are suffering from serious
economic, power, food and energy crises because of corruption
and dishonesty of rulers. He said Pakistani people are the
most hardworking and courageous in the world and rebuilding
the country is no difficult for them provided they have
honest and able leadership to guide them through crises. He
asked Pakistani elite, specially the president, prime
minister, cabinet members and big landlords and
industrialists to bring back their capital from abroad and
invest it in their own country to overcome the present
economic crisis. He said capital is flying fast out of the
country and it is the foremost duty of the leaders to bring
back their own capital into the country before asking others
to invest in Pakistan.
He reminded that unless the independent judiciary comprising
conscientious judges led by chief justice Iftikhar Mohammad
Chaudrhy was not restored, neither justice could be
established in the country nor the financial crisis could be
overcome. He said Gen Musharraf illegally sacked all the
judges and then forced them to renounce their cause of
establishing supremacy of justice. Qazi sahib paid glowing
tributes to the lawyers community for waging a remarkable and
unprecedented struggle for establishing independent judiciary
in the country.
Qazi sahib encouraged party workers and supporters that time
of trial and trouble is about to be over and a new dawn of
justice and peace is ready to emerge. He asked the workers to
take heart, hold fast to the discipline, and spread the
message of Islam and the party to every household and every
countrymen after returning from here.
