From Imam Badi Ali, National Islamic Shoora of Jamaat 
al-Muslimeen [North Carolina]
Spotlight #1: The Muslims of China, the Uighurs, are part of the 
global ummah. We support their struggle for their basic human rights 
and civil rights. In fact one fifth of China is Muslim. According to 
the teachings of Prophet Muhammad, pbuh, if the Muslims of China are 
hurt, we are all hurt. However, we would advise the Muslims of China 
not to let themselves be used by the West. Remember, the West is not 
interested in the rights of Muslims but will be quite willing to 
use the Muslims. To cut down China, the imperialists have Taiwan and 
Tibet and now they want Xingiang. China is a budding superpower and the 
West sees it as competition and a growing threat. Our Islamic struggle 
should be well thought out. Remember what happened in GEORGIA? The 
western powers created a puppet state to undermine Russia but it was 
weak and vulnerable and collapsed when Russia attacked; so don't 
be fooled.
Spotlight #2: Should we expect the rulers of Muslim countries to 
help Muslim causes? No, these are puppets of the West. They have been 
installed by the West. Their armies are meant to be used against the 
Muslim populations in their own countries. Remember the atrocities of 
the Algerian army and the Egyptian army and the 
Jordanian army and the Tunisian army, all supported by 
the West? They went beyond all limits of humanity to crush and kill and 
humiliate their own populations. Look at what is happening in 
Pakistan now every day. An army of "Muslims" led by Americanized 
generals is bombing and shelling people who stand for Islam. Why? 
Simply to serve the army's foreign masters.
Spotlight #3: Al-Akhira or the Hereafter is essential to Islam 
but Muslims often forget it. The worst condition is that of soldiers 
and agents and bureaucrats who serve the rulers working for the West. 
These are the servants of the servants. They seek DUNYA 
[worldly benefits] but they are soon consumed because their masters 
simply use them and then trash them. The servants of taghoot 
will only have hellfire in the Hereafter [although they claim to be 
Muslims]. Thus they lose THIS WORLD [Dunya] as well as the Hereafter.

New Trend first introduced Dr. Aafia to U.S. Muslims: Now Sis. 
Yvonne Urges us to do more
By Yvonne Ridley [excerpted]
Dr Aafia Siddiqui cut a lone figure as she slowly turned her head 
around to survey the packed courtroom in New York a few days ago.
With her sad brown eyes, she peered beyond her off-white veil and olive 
green jilbaab which covered her frail body.
May be she was looking for a friendly face, but with the exception of 
one kind individual, she was to find herself completely alone - and not 
for the first time.
The brutal truth is we Muslims - and I include myself in this - have 
once again abandoned her in her hour of need.
With the exception of her closest family, Aafiya was almost completely 
forgotten as the years rolled by following her kidnap and disappearance 
from Karachi in Pakistan in March 2003.
Her cries for help from the dungeons of Bagram, home to some of the 
most unimaginable cruelty, were ignored by her American tormentors.
But the harrowing images and piercing screams of Aafiya, were eventually 
recounted by those who survived the Bagram experience.
Aafiya was brought back into our conscious by ex-Guantanamo detainee 
Moazzam Begg. Through his book Enemy Combatant and from the graphic 
accounts of other Bagram survivors who also heard her screams and by 
the few who saw her there we now know the mother-of-three was brutalised 
and tortured in Bagram.
One account comes from ex-Guantanamo and Bagram detainee Binyam 
Mohammed who has given me an irrefutable eye witness statement 
confirming Aafiya was held in Bagram.
We now know thanks to Binyam and other once lost souls, that Dr Aafiya 
Siddiqui is Prisoner 650, The Grey Lady of Bagram.
Jamaat al-Muslimeen's Shoora will discuss Dr. Aafia's case on 
July 25, inshallah.
In America, this is our duty, not that of Yvonne Ridley. In New York, 
Muslims didn't turn up [other than the one "kind" person. Guess who?]. 
New York did the same with the Blind Shaikh. Siraj Wahhaj actually 
helped the Jewish judge, Michael Mukasey.

Howard County [Maryland] Discussion Uncovers Israeli Destruction of 
Bedouin Way of Life in Sinai
July 12, 2009: Columbia, Maryland has a large public library. Bette 
Hoover, of the Howard County Coalition for Peace & Justice used slides 
from her visit to "Israel" to highlight the condition of bedouins 
living under Israeli rule. Forty five people, all of European descent 
except for three Christian Arabs, listened carefully for about an hour 
and then offered comments and asked questions.
Ms. Bette charged Israel with "human rights violations" and the 
"degradation of the environment." The Israelis first undermined the 
bedouin way of life by stopping grazing by their herds and then lured 
them into ghettoes where they could be strictly controlled. The 
Israelis are controlling water supplies to force the bedouin to suffer, 
she said.
Now the Israelis are carrying out the final stage of their plan by 
claiming that the structures put up by the bedouin are "illegal." In 
this apartheid style campaign, Ms. Bette said, 50,000 bedouin homes are 
"considered illegal" and are "under demolition orders." The bedouin had 
set up a mosque with "straw bales" but on December 25, 2008 the 
Israelis demolished it, Ms. Bette's paper noted.
Dr. Kaukab Siddique made the following points at the meeting:
- 
The bedouin are people who want to live in peace and are not 
fighting Israel.
 - 
They have even served in the Israeli army in large numbers.
 - 
Their destruction by Israel should be understood as genocide of 
INDIGENOUS people.
 - 
Israel is committing crimes against humanity based on deep racism even 
against people who want to live in peace as part of Israel.
 
The people in the meeting were progressive and openly expressed 
themselves in very critical terms against Israel. With proper 
leadership and knowledge of Israel's activities, there could be a 
countrywide effort to throw off the yoke of Israel.
U.S. Government Unnecessarily Concerned about Jamaat al-Muslimeen
Report by our webmaster Br. Richard follows:
"A couple of days ago, 2009-07-10 Friday, 2 FBI agents approached me at 
the entrance to my apartment building when I was coming home from work.
They told me this was a non-custodial interview and asked if there was 
someplace we could talk.
I took them 2 blocks down the street to the Scooters coffee house where 
they had a conference room.
They were part of the Joint Terrorism Task Force.
They were asking specifically about the websites I do for JAM 
(Jama'at al-Muslimeen).
They asked me more than once if Dr Siddique was trying to incite 
Muslims to violent acts against the US.
When I pointed out that JAM's stance against violence is specified on 
the website, they said sometimes people say one thing in public but do 
other things behind the scenes.
I pointed out to them that JAM helped win the battle recently for Imam 
Jamil al-Amin's prison rights through non-violent means; using emails, 
letters, and telephone calls.
As they went on some more I said I doubt if Dr Siddique had a record of 
any criminal activity, especially not the type they were talking about.
I then asked them should not the FBI agents that have spoken to Dr 
Siddique have looked into such things ?
As they went on about the websites I pointed out the JAM recruits 
people like Dr Shabazz who has been teaching higher math for about 
50 years.
I said where would any of these members find the time to do any of 
these activities when they barely have enough time to work and fulfill 
their obligations to Allah (Islam) and family ?
They started talking about people "with an axe to grind" and I pointed 
out how many people had been put in prisons for something they had not 
done. Some of these have been released after DNA testing.
I said that MS-13, the drug gangs from Mexico, were more of a domestic 
terrorist threat than a Muslim protest group.
I also mentioned that people blamed the Nation of Islam when the 
Oklahoma City bombing was done by Tim McVeigh and Terry Nichols. In 
fact, the officers that had him for traffic and firearms violations 
almost let him go !
At the point where they said it was their job to make sure nothing bad 
happened in this country I had to start pointing out the facts.
They say Israel is their friend that they will not give up. I said that 
Israel was founded in 1948 and before that date no "radical" Muslims 
were killing US citizens. I said support for Israel cannot solve the 
problem because supporting Israel is the cause of the problem.
I then said if Israel is your friend you still do not have to give them 
taxpayers' money nor arms.
I said the next UN Resolution that comes against Israel, simply do not 
veto it and let them deal with it on their own.
The last fact I pointed out to them was Michelle Bachelet. She was 
democratically elected and a US backed dictator, Pinochet, had tortured 
her and tortured her father to death.
I stated the truth, US policy backing terror states like Israel and 
India, supporting torurers like Mubarak is the cause of the 
violence against them.
Tracking protest groups will not solve the problem, changing US foreign 
policy will.
I talked with them for more than an hour until they got tired of 
hearing my replies.
They finished by asking me if I would call them if I knew somethinng 
would happen where innocent people would be killed.
Ironically, they were told about the WTC at least 16 months before it 
happened and they ignored it !"

Murder of Imam In California looks like Hate Crime
On June 4 there were death threats at the Islamic Center of Cypress 
and on June 27, Imam Ali Mohammed, was killed in a fire. Police are 
investigating the burning of the Mosque and the death of Imam Ali as a 
hate crime.
Autopsy report confirmed the death occurred because of fire burns and 
"inhalation of products of combustion." Jordan Mohammed, Ali's 
21-year-old son, provided the sheriff's deputies with photographs of 
racist vandalism that his father discovered inside the family's house 
and photographed two days before the fire. The vandalism included racial 
epithets - including phrases laced with profanity that singled out 
the family's Middle Eastern ethnicity - as well as Nazi and American 
symbols - similar to death threat graffiti at the Islamic Center 
of Cypress.

11 July 2009
Baidoa — The Islamic administration officials of Harakat Al-shabab 
Mujahideen in Bay and Bakol regions have refuted reports saying that

The Islamic administration official of Harakat Shabab Mujahideen said 
that there were people killed in the region earlier saying that they 
were in spying activities in there.
The chairman of the Islamic administration of Harakat Al-shabab 
Mujahideen in Bay and Bakol regions said that they will peruse to the 
people who spread the false news in the region saying that the security 
situation of the region is normal right now.
War News: Pakistan
War Spreading Outside Frontier Areas
July 13, 2009: Peshawar [Hyatabad area]: An oil tanker carrying 
56,000 litres of oil for NATO forces in Afghanistan was blown up. It 
was a total loss as it was engulfed in flames. [Daily Jang.]
Los Angeles Times comment on Peshawar city: July 12: "The Pakistani 
city has been hit hard by militants' retaliatory attacks as a government 
offensive against the Taliban continues. Markets and parks are silent, 
and workers refuse night shifts."
July 13: Pakistani security forces brought 189 families from two 
refugee camps near Peshawar and Charsadda to Swat. The convoy of 
returnees was under heavy security on the ground while helicopters 
hovered overhead. Curfew was imposed on the entire route. It appears to 
be a government propaganda gambit to show that Swat is now under 
control. [More than 3.5 million people were uprooted from Swat 
by the military offensive.]
July 11, 2009: Kohat area: Three Pak military men were killed 
and 3 wounded when their convoy was hit by an alleged Pak Taliban 
bomb attack.
Mansehra: Six policemen were killed and one wounded in an attack 
by alleged Taliban gunmen.
Dera Ghazi Khan: Pakistani security forces raided a medressa 
[Islamic school] killing an emissary or aide from Taliban leader 
Baitullah Mehsud. Two local Muslims were wounded and arrested. The 
local imam disappeared but his relatives have been arrested. It appears 
that the medressa had joined the Pak Taliban fighting against General 
Kayani's forces. [Pakistani news indicate, if read carefully, that 
support for Taliban is spreading in the key province of Punjab although 
it is "illegal."]
Islamic Leaders Evaded Pak attacks: [Only one English language 
paper published this.]
July 12: Swat, Dir, Buner: Islamic leaders are all safe and uninjured 
and preparing for the next round of fighting. This was revealed by Pak 
Taliban spokesman Maulvi Umar in a phone message to Pak media.
Pak army has been saying that Maulvi Fazlullah [the Lion of Swat] 
has been seriously injured in a Pak air strike and that all other leaders 
have been killed. [The non-fighting leader Maulana Sufi was "captured" 
by Pak troops and is being "negotiated" with.]
Pak military air and land attacks in two months have killed 1700 people 
in these areas including at least 300 Pak Taliban but the Taliban are 
re-grouping. [These Taliban had little battle experience and were 
lightly armed. Pak army has admitted 158 of its troops have been killed 
and 588 wounded.]
Kayani defeated: Admits No Entry into South Waziristan: 28 Days of 
Bombing and Shelling but Baitullah Stands Firm
July 12: Pak military admitted today that it won't try to enter 
South Waziristan. New Trend's Pak observers say: This is an admission 
of defeat. Kayani built up huge land forces at the entrances to South 
Waziristan and has been hammering away with air strikes and heavy 
arillery but to no avail. Scores of Taliban have been killed in Pak 
attacks and hundreds of civilians and some Taliban have been killed in 
U.S. drone attacks but the Islamic stronghold stands firm and unshaken.
Red Mosque Leader says: Islamic Revolution is Coming: Implement 
Islamic Law in Islamic Land. Crowd Chants: "Jihad"
July 10, 2009: On the anniversary of General Musharraf's destruction 
of the Red Mosque, Maulana Abdul Aziz, the surviving leader of the 
mosque, warned the government that Shari'a [Islamic Law] must be 
implemented because this is a land created for Islam. An Islamic 
revolution is coming, he said, if the blood of the martyrs is ignored 
by the Pakistani rulers, he said.
You killed one Abdur Rasheed Ghazi but now there are thousands of Abdur 
Rashid Ghazis, he said.
A large crowd of young people attended the Juma prayer, many of them 
wearing red caps like those of the martyr Abdur Rasheed Ghazi. In a 
growing crescendo they chanted: "Al-Jihad, Al-Jihad, the only solution 
is al-Jihad."
[Readers might remember that the young women of Jamia Hafsa and the 
young men of Red Mosque [Lal Masjid] stood against the treacherous 
agent of America General Musharraf and calmly accepted martyrdom rather 
than bow down before an agent of Zionism and imperialism. New Trend 
considers the attack on the Red Mosque the turning point in Pak history 
when the Islamic forces realized that America's agents will not alliow 
Pakistan to be Islamic at any cost. The army was well armed and 
arrogant -Ed.]
Syed Munawar Hasan Leads Huge anti-U.S. Rally in Hyderabad: Urges 
end to Army Actions
Hyderabad. July 12, 2009: According to Urdu language journalists, a 
huge crowd of people packed the streets from the Old Campus to Pukka 
Qila Chari in a historic anti-U.S. rally organized by Jamaate Islami. 
The main speaker was Syed Munawar Hasan, Ameer of Jamaate Islami. Other 
prominent speakers were Asadullah Bhutto [Ameer of Sindh JI], Rashid 
Naseem, Abdul Ghaffar Umar, Abdul Waheed Qureshi, Yunus Barai, Abdul 
Hafeez Bajarani, Nasarulla Channa, Shaikh Shaukat Ali and Abdul 
Aziz Ghori.
Syed Munawar Hasan, top JI leader, condemned the military operations in 
Swat, Dir, Buner, tribal areas etc. He cited the terrible crimes 
committed by the army in these areas. He said, he visited Buner 
6 days back and saw that it has been reduced to rubble by Pak air force 
attacks. Similar reports are coming in from other areas.
In spite of being unwell, Hasan spoke for an hour and highlighted the 
role of India and Israel working in tandem with the U.S. to undermine 
Pakistan. He said that military operations cannot solve Pakistan's 
problems: negotiation is the only solution. He pointed out that 
irresponsible military operations have left India to work in a vacuum 
against Pakistan by suppressing Kashmir, controlling the rivers and 
setting up consulates in Afghanistan. The India-Pakistan border is thin 
on defense now, he said.
The JI leader is urging Pakistanis to unite against U.S.-Indian-Israeli 
interference. Following the unprecedented mass rally in Karachi, this 
is his second biggest success.

Media Distortion and Blackout of Chinese Muslim Suffering
by Arshad Ali Khan [Missouri]
ALL international Media showed very brief news about HUNDREDS of MUSLIMS

Police-Protection, & Publically saying that they will KILL 
Chinese-Muslims...
Actually, Arrest & Torture & Killings of MUSLIM Men & Youth[Males] 
is going-on in CHINA for DECADES...Extremely young muslim boys & 
girls are taken away from parents at gun-point by Chinese govt, & for 
years held in communist hostels & brainwashed to become 
communists...since Communists took Power, Thousands & Thousands of 
Muslim Men & Male-Youth have been Tortured & Killed in China's West
Why has 99% Non-Muslim Controlled int-Media NOT shown this 
for DECADES..???
[China's Western Areas have China's majority of OIL/GAS Production; 
& these Areas have 90% MUSLIMS; China has more than 100-Million Muslims]
[these Chinese Areas of Muslims Majority are Larger than Several EU 
Countries Combined Areas]
China for Decades has been committing Economic & Religous Genocide 
of Muslims in Chinese Western Areas...
Exactly Same as Hindu-india is doing against MUSLIMS inside

Letter: Britain with Pak military to Torture Muslims: This is why 
Europeans Mistreat Muslim Citizens
Muradali Sheikh [London, England]
Pakistan's rented army and rented rulers are the greatest threat to 
Islam and Muslims, see how they collaborate with foreign governments to 
torture its citizens. When Germany, and others see rented rulers in 
Muslim countries, they are emboldened to treat Muslims world wide 
as garbage.
MP: Britain 'outsourced' torture to Pakistan
A British opposition politician has accused the government and 
intelligence agencies of colluding in the torture of a British 
terrorism suspect whose interrogation was "outsourced" to Pakistan.
Speaking with parliamentary privilege, which allowed him to make 
allegations which might otherwise be in contempt of court, Conservative 
David Davis said the government had helped set up the torture and abuse 
of suspect Rangzieb Ahmed at the hands of Pakistan's Inter-Services 
Intelligence directorate (ISI). "A more obvious case of outsourcing of 
torture, a more obvious case of passive rendition, I cannot imagine," 
Davis, a former spokesman on home affairs issues, told parliament late 
on Monday, according to the Press Association. The government dismissed 
Davis's accusations, saying he was presenting unsubstantiated allegations 
as fact. Foreign Office minister Ivan Lewis said the government was 
clear in its opposition to torture. "It is an abhorrent crime and we 
are fundamentally opposed to it," he said. "That principle guides all 
the government's work, including the intelligence services and the 
armed forces."

Egypt: Outpouring of Grief at Murder of Muslim Woman in Germany by 
Russian Immigrant
[From al-Ahram, Cairo]
In an outpouring of national grief, thousands came out in Alexandria to 
mourn the death of Marwa El-Sherbini, a 31-year-old mother who was 
stabbed to death in a German court by an assailant she had sued after 
he had called her a terrorist because of her headscarf. In Alexandria, 
El-Sherbini's birthplace, huge crowds, which included her bereaved 
mother, gathered around the coffin before El-Sherbini was laid to rest
El-Sherbini was stabbed 18 times in front of her three-year-old son in 
a German court in Dresden. Her husband was also stabbed and shot when 
he went to the aid of his wife. She was giving evidence at the time 
against her attacker, 28- year-old Alex W. A Russian of German descent 
who immigrated to Germany in 2003, Alex W had been found guilty of 
subjecting El-Sherbini to racial abuse last November and fined. He 
appealed the verdict, which is why they were in court together. He 
remains in detention and prosecutors have opened an investigation on 
suspicion of murder.

karat Gold Coffin Fit for a King?
Michael Jackson: America's Greatest Entertainer, Victim of Self-Hatred 
and of his "Friends"
by Sis. 'Aisha [Jamaat al-Muslimeen, New York City]
New York City - I was one of the expected billion viewers of the 
memorial service for Michael Jackson, July 7, 2009. It was sad and a 
cause for celebration at the same time. However, this was not a funeral.
Although, it had not been planned for Michael Jackson's body to have 
been present during the service, his brothers decided to bring the 
guest of honor in his 24-karat gold coffin, anyway. The coffin was 
draped with a bevy of red roses.
The service was held in Staples Center, which is where the NBA Lakers 
and Clippers play. There were 20,000 people in attendance but it was 
stated that over 1 billion people were watching. This is the most 
watched memorial ever.
There had been recent rumors of Michael Jackson having converted to 
Islam but now it's been said that those rumors were unfounded. Of 
course, if he were, there is the issue of it having been 13 days and no 
burial. The family still has not found a permanent resting place for 
him, yet. It took over a year for James Brown to be buried! Oh, to be 
so famous!
There were Christian overtones throughout the service with various 
speakers closing "in Jesus's name" and a few gospel songs were sung. 
Jackson was raised a Jehovah's Witness and they tend to be very 
low-key; however, his friends were not Witnesses and chose to honor him 
in their own way.
I have two points of views regarding all of the hoopla surrounding 
Michael Jackson. Firstly, he was a genius and has influenced so much of 
today's music and dance. Of course, White America will try to push 
Elvis on us but, Elvis was a copy cat of Black American artists James 
Brown and Jackie Wilson. He never gave credit to them or black music 
for his success. He was only an imitator. I am glad to see that, after 
years of trying to destroy Michael's image, his fans came out in droves 
to honor him. I liked the Thriller album, myself.
There are white artists who have committed even worse transgressions 
against society and have received praise such as musician and convicted 
pedophile, Gary Glitter. He wrote the song "Rock and Roll" also known 
as "The Hey Song", which is heard in sports arenas in throughout 
North America.
My second opinion about Michael Jackson concerns his plastic surgeries 
that destroyed his African features and made him look more European. It 
was a tragic display of self-hatred. Michael Jackson has become a 
poster child for black self-hatred, which is a serious syymptom from 
living in an oppressive, white supremacist society. Michael often said 
that his father ridiculed him and he thought that the surgeries would 
perfect his appearance. I pitied him for that. I pity anyone who does 
not love himself.
This black self-hatred is so delusional and the "acceptance" by white 
supremacists is so phony. These African-Americans, such as Jackson and 
O.J. Simpson, do not understand that they will never be accepted by 
their white oppressors but used by them until they no longer serve a 
purpose or they anger them. This white supremacist nonsense is a 
world-wide phenomenon.

(Holo-)History Is Bunk. An Invitation to Study, Discuss and Debate.
The Holes in the Jewish Holocaust Story are too big to be Accepted on Faith
by
Ken Meyercord
Holocaust revisionism, aka denial, has come into prominence of late 
what with a Catholic bishop expressing contrarian beliefs regarding the 
holocaust story and the Iranian president espousing - and being mocked 
for - similar views. Most Americans have very strong (you might say 
visceral) opinions on the subject, even those who don't have a clue 
what the debate is all about. As some may be confused when they hear 
Columbia University president Lee Bollinger, in introducing the Iranian 
president to the Sons of Knickerbocker, proclaim that the "Holocaust is 
the most documented event in human history", then read orthodox 
holocaust historian Raymond Aron declare, in his book Why Did the 
Heavens Not Darken: The "Final Solution" in History, that "Sources 
for the study of the gas chambers are at once rare and unreliable", let 
me provide a brief introduction to holocaust revisionism.
First, we need to define "holocaust revisionism" or "denial". Would you 
say someone who believes that during World War II millions of Jews were 
uprooted from their homes and placed in concentration camps where they 
died in droves denies the holocaust? Wouldn't it be nasty to label such 
a person a "denier". I know of no holocaust revisionist who would 
dispute the account of the Jew's fate I just gave, yet that emotive, 
unfair label is pinned on just such people. What causes revisionists to 
be misrepresented and slandered by the believers is their denial of 
three constituent parts of the holocaust story:
- 
That there was a plan to exterminate the Jews, aka "The Final Solution";
 - 
That gas chambers were used in the execution of that plan; and
 - 
That no less than six million Jews died as a result.
 
It's these three heresies which define a "holocaust denier". 
(Indicative of how axiomatic holocaust mythology is, even David Irving, 
the best known revisionist today, assumed the existence of an 
extermination plan and gas chambers in his heralded early book Hitler's 
War; his heresy at that time was simply to claim Hitler didn't know 
about it.)
As a preamble to our discussion, let me set the scene. Is it possible 
that during World War II we engaged in anti-German propaganda? If so, 
would we not have accused the Germans of doing all sorts of diabolical 
things, especially with regard to the concentration camps? If, when we 
liberated the camps, we found the history of the camps was not as 
sinister as we had portrayed it, would we have admitted it, what with 
the war dead and all (the same questions apply to the Soviets)?
With these questions in mind, let's consider the concentration camp at 
Dachau. A while after its liberation, the army presented a 20x20-foot 
room with a seven-and-a-half-foot high ceiling in which were embedded 
stainless steel showerheads not connected to any pipes as a gas chamber. 
Seemed plausible enough, what with wartime horror stories. Trouble is, 
a delegation from the US Congress visited Dachau just two days after 
its liberation and in their report (Doc 159-L at the Nuremberg tribunal) 
they describe the "gas chamber" as having a ten-foot high ceiling 
with brass showerheads actually connected to pipes (through 
which they surmised the gas was passed into the chamber). Seems like 
somebody built themselves a gas chamber, doesn't it - only it wasn't 
the Germans!
For sixty years a sign outside the "gas chamber" identified the room as 
such, but stated it had never actually been used. (Regrettably, and 
dishonestly, the sign didn't go on to point out that the gas chamber 
was never used because it wasn't even there when the Germans were 
running the camp). A few years ago the sign was removed and today - 
despite the testimony of eyewitnesses and the attestation of the US 
Army and a congressional delegation, and in contradiction to what they 
told visitors for decades - there is no mention of a gas chamber on 
the website of the Dachau Memorial 
(www.kz-gedenkstaette-dachau.de/index-e.html), a truly Orwellian 
rewrite of history.
Now let's consider the so-called "Operation Reinhard Death Camps", 
three camps (Sobibor, Treblinka, Belzec) in Poland in which a million 
and a half Jews are said to have been exterminated. When the Soviets 
liberated the camps, there wasn't much left as evidence. The story, as 
told by survivors, was that hundreds of thousands of Jews were gassed 
and interred in mass graves at the camps. Later, they said, the bodies 
were dug up and cremated on open-air grills (cremated so well that 
nothing but ashes remained, to be scattered to the wind to hide the 
dirty deed).
Survivor accounts of the cremation process gives new meaning to the 
word "tragicomic". To hear the eyewitnesses tell it, it took little 
more than a match for the corpses to spontaneously combust. In fact, 
it takes a whole lot of fuel - wood in this case - to cremate a human 
body (75% water). Strangely, maps of the camps drawn from the 
recollection of survivors (for instance, in Yitzak Arad's Belzec, 
Sobibor, Treblinka: The Operation Reinhard Death Camps) include 
such details as the prisoners' kitchen, watchtowers, latrines, even the 
camp well, but no woodsheds - not even a wood pile. Considering it 
would have taken a Black Forest to perform the feat of cremation the 
Germans are said to have accomplished, this is a remarkable omission; 
as is the eyewitnesses' apparent failure to notice the trains delivering 
the firewood, which must have been as frequent, if not more so, than 
those delivering the transportees.
A simple procedure is all it would take to solve this historical mystery: 
were the Operation Reinhard camps death camps, as the holocaust believers 
claim, or transit camps, as the doubters maintain? All that's 
needed is to drill some test holes where the burial pits are said to 
have been and see if the subsoil has been disturbed (just suggesting 
such a test is appropriate could land you in prison in Europe!). If so, 
then burial pits, hence death camps; if not, no burial pits, hence 
transit camps. The fact that this test has never been performed suggests 
it's not just the official skeptics (aka "deniers") who doubt the 
veracity of the "Operation Reinhard Death Camps" story. Maybe it's not 
just from negligence on the part of historians that we know more about 
some 5000-year-old encampment in Mesopotoamia, thanks to archeological 
excavations, than we do about the sites where a million-and-a-half 
people are said to have been murdered in our own time. (A leery-eyed 
video on the camps can be viewed at www.holocaustdenialvideos.com.)
Finally: Auschwitz, the Holy of Holies in the schismatic debate between 
holocaust believers and deniers. So much ink has been expended in 
debating this infamous camp's history it's not feasible for me to cover 
even part of the ground here, nor am I competent to do so. So, just a 
few titillating, and hopefully thought-provoking, comments:
(1) The existence of gas chambers at Auschwitz is based almost entirely 
on eyewitness testimony, a primary source for historians which has oft 
times proven unreliable (Surprisingly, in his autobiographical - and 
perhaps plagiarized - account of his time in Auschwitz, Night, the 
poster child of holocaust remembrance, Elie Weisel, makes no mention 
of gas chambers. I find his account very plausible and instructive, 
and his omission telling.). For instance, eyewitnesses testified that 
Jews were electrocuted en masse, that steam was used in the gas chambers, 
that the gas chambers were equipped with trap-doors, and so on, stories 
which, like those about soap made from Jewish fat and lampshades from 
human skin, have lost any credence today. The director of the Yad 
Vashem holocaust memorial in Israel has stated that half of the 20,000 
accounts by holocaust survivors it holds are garbage which should be 
removed from the memorial's archive. I suspect the same could be 
said of much of the remainder. Take the testimony of the Jewish barber, 
Abraham Bomba. He claims to have given haircuts to Jewish women in the 
gas chamber (!) at Treblinka , "a nice haircut" as he puts it, to calm 
them down right before they get gassed. As if a 2-minute haircut by 
strange men would calm down a hundred or so women - naked, mind you - 
crowded into a small room! (Bomba's testimony can be found on the 
website of the US Holocaust Memorial; he is also featured in Claude 
Lanzmann's acclaimed film Shoah.)
(2) For forty years a plaque at Auschwitz stated that 4 million 
people died at the camp. In 1990 a revised plaque cut the number down 
to 1.5 million. Estimates for a number of other camps have 
similarly been reduced in recent years. Yet, the canonical "six million" 
figure - a figure that was bantered about even before the war began - 
remains intact. A curious math, indeed!
(3) More extensive traces of cyanide from the de-louser (and claimed to 
be de-populator) Zyklon-B are found in the hospital at Auschwitz than 
in the rooms claimed to be gas chambers. Why did the Germans have a 
hospital at Auschwitz anyway if they were bent on exterminating a 
people (Elie Weisel's father was being treated in the camp hospital as 
the Soviets approached)?
(4) A photo on display at the Simon Weisenthal Center in Los 
Angeles shows a crowd of inmates at Auschwitz with smoke billowing up 
in the background, supposedly from the camp's crematoria. But someone 
found the original of the photo and there is no smoke in the background. 
It was airbrushed in, probably so the scene would match the 
oft-repeated testimony of survivors that smoke (flames even!) constantly 
spewed from the crematoria smokestacks (as indeed would necessarily 
have been the case for the crematoria to come close to meeting the 
production quota demanded by the believers' body count.). Here's proof 
some scurrilous types are not above tampering with the historical 
evidence to bolster their story.
Let's assume for the moment - for hypothetical purposes only - that the 
holocaust revisionists are right. Is it wise for open-minded, 
well-meaning, tolerant folk to leave the truth in the hands of 
anti-Semites, neo-Nazis, and Aryan Supremacists? Wouldn't it be better 
to get the myths surrounding the holocaust out in the open now, when 
anti-Semitism is a negligible factor in American society, than to leave 
them to be discovered sometime in the future when hard-times cause 
desperate, angry people to look around for a scapegoat?
If I've convinced you that the chance the revisionists are right is more 
than just hypothetical, I hope you will feel that historical issues 
surrounding the holocaust are not only worthy of scholarly debate but 
should be debated. I encourage you to foster debate, nay, demand that 
open debate on the holocaust in an atmosphere free of rancor, accusation, 
and intimidation be promoted (in memoriam to those revisionists imprisoned 
in Europe). You can start by educating yourself.

Biden Picks Jewish Ron Klain for Chief of Staff, just like Obama
The chief of staff for Vice President Al Gore will assume the same role 
for Joe Biden.
Ron Klain accepted the post for the vice president-elect on Wednesday, 
Politico.com reported.
He becomes the second Jewish Clinton administration veteran to serve in 
a top executive position for President-elect Barack Obama. U.S. Rep. 
Rahm Emanuel (D-Ill.) will serve as White House chief of staff.

Klain, who helped coordinate Gore's claims in the 2000 presidential 
recount, later returned to a law practice…when they married, Ron Klain 
and his wife, Monica Medina, struck a deal: their daughter and two sons 
would be raised Jewish (for him), but they would celebrate Christmas 
(for her).
Despite their satisfaction with the arrangement, the couple, who live 
in Chevy Chase, Maryland., have never put up the tree while Mr. Klain's 
mother is visiting from Indianapolis. Instead, they wait until after 
her annual December visit.
"I grew up in Indiana, with a decent-size Jewish community, but we were 
a distinct minority," Mr. Klain said. "Not having a Christmas tree was 
very much part of our Jewish identity in a place where everyone else 
did." In the HBO movie "Recount" Kevin Spacey played Ron Klain.
