message of Allah?. Learn about the background knowledge, 
understanding of America, points of focus in the Qur'an and 
hadith. Why have the 4-letter groups failed?

Hadith and Women
Put an end to bigotry against women: Learn from the leader 
of humanity, pbuh.
www.hadithandwomen.wordpress.com
Prophet Muhammad, pbuh, is the only religious leader who 
removed taboos related to menstruation and stopped 
discrimination against women in mosques.
Do you know that Islam opposes the idea of keeping women out 
of the central issues in Muslim communities?
Announcement
Br. Yusuf Irelandi appointed Jamaat al-Muslimeen's Advocacy 
Director
Jamaat al-Muslimeen is pleased to announce that Br. Yusuf, 
grass roots worker, teacher and organizer for Islamic 
causes, has been appointed Advocacy Director. Inshallah, he 
will contact activists in various cities to focus on the 
issues and causes which are central to JAM's agenda.
Br. Yusuf's work can be seen on facebook pages titled 
"Jamaat al-Muslimeen International"  and "Tennessee Da'wah." 
Br. Yusuf, who is of Irish descent, helps readers to see 
support for Muslims in Ireland. In Tennessee itself he has 
uncovered the ugly drama being perpetrated by pro-government 
people like Zaid Shakir, ISNA's favorite child, who take 
advantage of the political innocence of American Muslims.   
Soft spoken but clear thinking, Br. Yusuf is a convert to 
Islam who takes the da'wah to Christians whom he knows well.

Muslims are an oppressed Minority in America
New Trend Exclusive
Laila Yaghi Speaks about the Persecution of her son: He was 
given 31.5 Years for nothing!
FreeZiyadYaghi.info
On May 23 and 24, the editor of New Trend interviewed a 
Palestinian-American woman, Laila Yaghi, in Raleigh, North 
Carolina [about 381 miles south-south-west of Baltimore, 
Maryland].
Here are the facts of the case:
- 
Laila is an all American woman, born of a father of 
Palestinian origin and a White American woman in Montana, a 
state which is the epitome of middle America. She sees 
herself as a Muslim in a conventional way,  and looks like 
any decent American woman.
 - 
Her torment and suffering is a clear sign that the 
oppression of Muslims in America has reached new levels. 
After imprisoning scholars and leaders like Imam Jamil, Dr. 
Aafia and Dr. Omar Abdel Rahman, after putting away 
community activists and non-violent critics like Ahmed Abdel 
Sattar and Ali Timimi, after silencing sympathizers of 
overseas Muslims, totally peaceful like Masoud Khan, Imam 
Abu Toubah and Dr. Kifah al-Jayyousi and putting them in 
little cells, after trapping angry young men totally 
unconnected to terrorism like the Muslims in Newburgh, NY, 
the government is now going after ordinary Muslims who do 
not  have the slightest potential for opposition.
 - 
Ziyad is not connected to any "terrorist" or Islamic 
organization, here or abroad.
 - 
He did not have any weapon.
 - 
He did not carry out or try to carry out any terrorist 
act.
 - 
He started going to the mosque and became interested in 
living like a Muslim.
 - 
He became friends with a young man of Egyptian origin 
named Omar Hassan who introduced him to the two sons of an 
American Muslim named Boyd who talked loudly about jihad but 
was nothing more than an angry man.  The government arrested 
Boyd and his sons and wanted Ziyad Yaghi to testify against 
him. Ziyad did not know of any violent acts attributed to 
the Boyds and did not want to be a liar and refused.
 - 
The government then arrested Ziyad and pressured Boyd to 
testify against him in return for Boyd and his sons getting 
light sentences. Boyd obliged and is still in government 
custody perhaps to be used further in this nefarious 
process.
 - 
Ziyad was held for two years and three months in prison 
before the trial. The government used this time to fabricate 
a case against him.
 - 
The whole case was staged. Even the arrest was a drama. 
A swat team was sent to arrest him as if he is a dangerous 
"terrorist."
 - 
The government sent its agents into the Muslim community 
and sub poenas were issued to many Muslims and to all of 
Ziyad's acquaintances, thus preventing them from appearing 
in court to support him.
 - 
The trial was held in New Bern, about two and a half 
hour drive from Raleigh, to make it very difficult to go to 
the court and show support for Ziyad. Only a few determined 
Pakistanis turned up.
 - 
The trial was held on September 22, only 11 days after 
the anniversary of the 9.11 attacks which had the public 
stirred up against  Muslims.
 - 
The media demonized Ziyad as if he really is a 
terrorist. The media were so ill informed that they referred 
to Laila, Ziyad's mom, as Boyd's wife and sometimes even as 
Ziyad's wife! FOX TV was the worst.
 - 
The trial was ridiculous beyond all limits. The 
government claimed that during his trip to Palestine, where 
he was denied entry by the occupiers, his references on the 
phone to the search for a "bride" were a code word for 
Jihad!
 - 
Ziyad was sentenced in January 2012 and imprisoned in an 
SHU [Special Housing Unit] where he is in solitary 
confinement for 23 out of every 24 hours.
 
Laila Yaghi needs your support. Don't let her down. Form a 
support group for her son, write to him, help her in every 
way you can so that this tragic episode may end. Perhaps the 
government may realize its colossal error.
Remember that it is quite legal to help the families of 
prisoners. Put fear out of your hearts. Fear Allah!          
Reaching out to 700 plus Arab Americans
Homosexual "marriage" is the tool for destruction of all 
religious values.
Only Islam can defeat this Zionist ploy which will be used 
against the Muslim world too!
On May 25, Br. Kaukab Siddique gave the juma' khutba at the 
Islamic Center of the Triad in Greensboro, North Carolina 
[about 400 miles south west of Baltimore, Maryland]. Owing 
to the efforts of Imam Badi Ali [Palestinian] and other 
promient Muslims in the area, the community in Greensboro 
has become an island of Islamic values, reaching out with 
compassion and love to people of all faiths. Most of the 700 
plus people who attended were from Sudan, Somalia, Niger, 
Egypt, Iraq, Morocco,  Palestine and Jordan.  The number of 
Pakistanis and Indians here has grown and there are also 
"white" converts to Islam.
The main points of Br. Siddique's khutba, very well 
received, were as follows:
Text #1: "We sent Lut [Lot] who said to his people: Do ye 
commit brazen obscenity such as no people in creation 
committed before you! For you practice your sexual drives on 
men in preference to women: you are indeed a people 
transgressing beyond limits." Lot's people adamantly replied 
: 'Drive them out of your city: these are indeed people who 
want to be clean and pure." ...[The Qur'an 7:80-82]
Text #2: One who supports an oppressor and provides him 
power though he knows that one is an oppressor, surely such 
a one has gone out of Islam. [Hadith of Muhammad, pbuh, 
narrated by Aus ibn Shurajeel, r.a., in the collection 
Mishkat al-Masabih.]
- 
The criterion of what is right and what is wrong has been 
revealed by Allah in the Qur'an. No one can change it.
 - 
We have the Sunnah and the Shar'iah from Muhammad, pbuh. 
No one has the right to alter that.
 - 
Neither Christianity nor Judaism or Hinduism have either 
Sunnah or Shariah. Hence Islam is the only religion which 
can be applied to modern times in sacred terms and not be 
someone's opinion.
 - 
For decades the media, corporate and Zionist, have been 
been spreading the culture of paganism, so that many 
Americans now do not know  what is right and what is wrong. 
 - 
Slowly but steadily the values of civilized behavior have 
been eroded. Fornication and adultery are common themes of 
movies, videos and even advertising. "Thou shalt not commit 
adultery" has been forgotten.
 - 
In this culture of dating and frequent change of 
partners, random sex has become a reality from coast to 
coast.
 - 
Almost all major crimes are crimes against women. Murder, 
rape, torture, mental and physical, are so common that they 
have become part of tabloid gossip.
 - 
Over 4,000,000 women are battered every year and end up 
in safe homes or require police to keep men away from them. 
 - 
Millions of women think that the only way they can live 
the lifestyle advertised on line and in plush magazines like 
Vogue is to take their clothes off and feed the lust of 
predator males. Pimping is mainstreaming.
 - 
Now comes the "icing on the cake." The Obama regime has 
declared that it supports homosexual marriage. The homos are 
not content with sexually using each other but want to 
"marry" each other, male to male, female to female.
 - 
Dear Muslims, only Islam can save this country from the 
tentacles of Zion which have grabbed America by the throat. 
 - 
The Qur'an has made it clear  that Homosexuality has 
absolutely no place in Islam. An imam who gives the khutba 
stands at the mimbar of the Rasool, pbuh, and must speak the 
truth about homosexuality and the fitna of mass culture, or 
leave the position of imam.
 - 
Do not get into the trap of democrat vs republican 
politics. Notice that Romney cannot condemn homosexuality. 
All he can say is that  marriage is between a man and a 
woman.
 - 
The new homosexual offensive will affect people of Islam 
too, not just Christians.  The way the regime is going, if 
you have an adoption agency and do not accept adoption by 
homos, you'll be closed down. If you run a hospital, a scout 
troop or any other organization, you will be closed down if 
you do not accept homosexulaity as legitimate.
 - 
I know that North Carolina has denied homosexual 
legitimacy. Yesterday, Catholics, other Christians and 
Mormons 
held a day long conference in which they expressed their 
deep sorrow at Obama's offensive, but none of them could 
denounce homosexuality.
 - 
As Maulana Maudoodi taught, victory is only possible if 
you are a movement, working either through or around 
obstacles. If you are not a movement [ tehreek] but a 
closed-in defense mechanism, like a rock in a river, the 
rock will be swept away in the river once its underlay has 
been eroded.
 - 
Islam is emerging as a global force, the only force 
opposing multinational corporations, international Zionism 
and imperialism. Look at Pakistan. It has blocked the supply 
lines of the biggest Anglo American military in recent 
history. NATO is set to  be defeated in Afghanistan.
 - 
Do not be afraid. You have the right to use all 
non-violent means to oppose the yahood and the webs of 
deception they have weaved in this very country. Tell your 
children that mass media is using all its resources to 
legitimize haram such as fornication, adultery, liquor, 
gambling and homosexuality.
 
Spotlight on: What is Hypocrisy?
Imam Badi Ali, National Shoora, Jamaat al-Muslimeen, Urges 
Muslims to Think!
- 
Spotlight #1:
 - 
Hypocrites are those who justify oppression 
and work for kings and rulers by making excuses for their 
actions.
 - 
Spotlight #2
 - 
Hypocrites are those who use the name of 
religion to achieve the objectives of their greed.
 - 
Spotlight #3:
 - 
The world does not despise hypocrisy any 
longer. It is becoming a way of life.
 - 
Spotlight #4:
 - 
You are a hypocrite if you tell someone you 
love them when in fact you hate and despise them and wish 
them harm.
 - 
Spotlight #5:
 - 
Hypocrisy occurs when you do not live 
according to your beliefs. You claim to be Muslim but you 
sell liquor though you know not only drinking it but 
carrying it and selling it is haram.
 - 
Spotlight #6:
 - 
Hypocrisy exists when you criticize others for 
what you are doing yourself: you make yourself the 
exceptiom. You go to Juma' prayers but you continue to sell 
liquor and to smoke.
 - 
Spotlight #7:
 - 
You tell children what not to do but you do it 
yourself.
 - 
Spotlight #8:
 - 
Hypocrisy is an ugly beast wearing an angel's 
mask.
 - 
Spotlight #9:
 - 
Hypocrisy involves killing and bombing and 
occupying people while you preach human rights. You kill but 
teach the right to life.
 - 
Spotlight #10:
 - 
You are a hypocrite if you are working with 
the enemies against the interests of the Ummah.
 - 
Spotlight #11:
 - 
Hypocrisy is like a stink which you smell 
after a while!

ICNA Trying to Follow the Lead of Jamaat al-Muslimeen on 
opposing Homosexuality
but Failing Miserably!
On May 26, ICNA issued a statement, very tepid, pointing out 
that Islam does not support homosexuality. Presidential 
candidate Mitt Romney's statement was almost like ICNA's! 
The May 26 statement is dated May 11. Quite clever!
On May 11, Kaukab Siddique, in a Juma' khutba, denounced the 
Obama "Gay Marriage" initiative. The khutba was posted on 
May 14 on our web site.
Then on May 20, New Trend published Dr. Javed Jamil's 
extensive analysis of homosexuality in the US and Canada, 
Then on May 25, Siddique gave a second khutba denouncing the 
homosexual initiative.
By now ICNA has realized that it is losing whatever little 
Islamic legitimacy it has left. Hence the statement.
ICNA is known for its gullibility and opportunism. Some 
neo-cons have been claiming that there is a danger of 
Shariah being imposed in the US [don't laugh]. Immediately 
ICNA took up the cause of   "we are good guys and will not 
let Shariah be imposed." [The ICNA style is: "Main jooti 
chor naheen hoon." Let a Pakistani translate that for you.] 
They have misled Muslims for a long time. Remember ICNA 
reported the case of 5 US Muslim youths to CAIR, who 
reported it to the government. The result is that the 5 are 
in a Pakistani prison. ICNA has not apologized and is 
working closely with CAIR & Siraj Wahhaj.]
European Jews in Hollywood Malign Arab Semites
Excerpted from The Ugly Truth by Mark Glenn [a powerful 
voice out of Idaho.]
The Hollywood Propaganda Campaign against Arabs: George 
Shaheen's documentary "Reel Bad Arabs" outlines exactly how 
anti-semtic Hollywood is. Arabs are the most maligned people 
in all of Hollywood. Arabs are a Semitic people. It is no 
secret that Ashkenazi Jewish people run Hollywood. Ashkenazi 
Jews are not Semitic. Thus it can be said that Jewish people 
have been central to the most developed anti-semitic 
campaign in history.
Yemen
Yemeni Bomber blows up entire  Military unit: Saudi/US 
planes bomb al-Qaida/Ansar-Shar'ia
May 21: A martyrdom operator attacked a Yemeni military 
rehearsal in the capital San'a. The explosion was massive 
and wiped out an entire US-Saudi backed unit killing 100 
troops and wounding 311.
May 21-24: In coordination with US-Yemeni-Saudi aircraft, 
Yemeni forces captured a key position in the city of Lawdar 
after heavy fighting in which 40 troops and 60 Islamics were 
killed. Troops are also attacking the Islamic-held city of 
Jaar. Meanwhile, key al-Qaida leader al-Qusi was buried 
after burial services in which his family accused 
Yemeni-Saudi-US coordination in his killing.
Tunisia
Demonstrations were held in the town of Jenouba to close 
down the liquor stores. Military came out to stop the 
rallies.
Syria: A Massacre to outdo all Massacres
May 25: After facing resistance in the village of Houla, 
north of Homs, Assad sent in heavy artillery to shell the 
homes of the Muslim people. At least 80 people have been 
killed, including scores of women and children. The shelling 
continued for 18 hours. Videos of the mangled bodies have 
come out.
Protests against Assad were held after Friday prayers in all 
the cities but were dispersed.

NATO Supply Route Still Blocked: 6 months after Silala, 5 
Weeks After Regime said: Re-Open
May 27: NATO's supply routes through Pakistan remani blocked 
five weeks after the secular regime in Islamabad decided to 
open them.
NATO is supplying its occupation army by air and via a long 
route from the post-Soviet "republics" in the north at 
extreme cost.
Students of strategy say that if Pakistan had a Khalid ibn 
al-Waleed, r.a., it would send its troops into Afghanistan 
to attack NATO. If the entire NATO force were wiped out or 
captured, the crusaders would never return to the Islamic 
lands. Pakistan has enough nuclear bombs to stop India 
attacking from the east.
Unfortunately, Pakistan does not have a Khalid, r.a. It has 
a Kayani, if a dastardly slow thinker there ever was.
Drone Attack on Mosque: 10 killed during Fajr prayers
May 24: In the Mir Ali area of North Waziristan, a US 
drone hit a village mosque with two missiles, killing 10 
people who were in the middle of fajr prayers and wounding 6 
others. Those killed are reported to be Punjabi Taliban. 
[This was censored by overseas Dawn but was reported by 
MSNBC and British Channel 4].
On May 23, there was another drone attack which killed 4 
Muslims in North Waziristan.
Latest: May 27: A third drone attack has killed another 4 
Muslims in N. Waziristan.
Zardari in Chicago Dared not Talk of re-opening NATO Supply 
Route:
Islamics Assured by Rahman Malik
May 22: Rahman Malik, the secular regime's notorious 
Interior Minister ate humble pie. He came to Jamaate 
Islami's headquaters in Lahore and assured the Islamic 
leadership that the NATO supply route would not be re-opened 
and Pakistan's sovereignty would never {again] be betrayed. 
The entire coalition of Islamic groups known as the Defense 
of Pakistan Council sent its leadership to the Jamaate 
Islami headquarters and assured the secular regime that the 
masses would march on Islamabad if the NATO supply routes 
were re-opened.
Where Americans and Pakistanis differ most
America's Agent Doctor Shakeel Afridi gets 33 years in 
Prison: Betrayed Shaykh Osama
The man who helped America trace Osama bin Laden through a 
fake vaccination campaign has been sentenced to 33 years of 
hard labor in prison plus $3500 fine. Most Pakistanis wanted 
him executed but he was given a lenient sentence, Pakistani 
observers say.
May 24: Hillary Clinton almost lost her cool when she found 
that America's most favored Pakistani is serving what 
amounts to a life sentence. She is threatening Pakistan and 
seems ready to try to get America's sharpest agent out of 
prison. [One of our bad humorists says that perhaps the Navy 
Seals should be sent in again, this time to get Shakeel out. 
The only problem is that the Taliban have killed great 
numbers of the Seals in one horrific blow. Most Pakistanis 
and most Muslims consider Osama the greatest leader of 
Jihad. Most Americans consider him a horrible terrorist. 
[More probably, one observer says, Pakistanis will sneak 
Shakeel out to USA if given enough money.]
notorious
[New Trend comment: Pakistanis tried and sentenced Afridi 
whom it considers a traitor. By contrast, America used a 
drone to kill Shaykh Anwar al-Awlaki whom it considered a 
traitor. A'sma Jehangir, a notorious Pakistani secul;arist 
lawyer is protesting Afridi's sentence. She has exposed her 
own treachery because she refused to protest Dr. Aafia 
Siddiqui's bogus trial and imprisonment in the US.]
Innocent Muslim in US Gulag
Unbelievable but True
The Case of Masoud Khan: Given 99 Years in Prison to please 
India
FreeMasoudKhan.net
[Document presented at recent human rights conference in 
Wahington, DC]
In 2001 Masoud was invited to a dinner by an acquaintance 
and there met a group of young Muslims who attended a mosque 
in Falls Church, Virginia. This group played recreational 
paintball in the woods, went to a target practice range and 
fired legally-owned firearms, and discussed international 
politics and the obligations of Muslims to defend their 
faith.  Masoud played the game of paintball only once and 
never was a part of their group.  He was a newly wed and he 
and his wife were living with his mother in Maryland.  In 
August 2001 Masoud received a court order to appear at the 
High Court in Karachi, Pakistan with the original Succession 
Certificate (heirship paper) regarding his father's estate.  
He applied for a visit visa from the Embassy of Pakistan 
which approved the visa on the basis of this court order and 
he flew there in late September 2001.  After attending the 
first court hearing, he had several weeks free and toured a 
LET training camp, which focused on liberating Kashmir from 
India, but he never joined the group, never planned any 
violent activity or attacked anyone, and at the time LET was 
not considered a terrorist organization by the U.S.  In 
early December he returned to America, his job and his 
family.
In 2003 Masoud was arrested and charged not with terrorism 
but for conspiracy to violate the Neutrality Acts--obscure, 
longstanding, rarely enforced laws that make it a crime for 
Americans to attack a country (in this case, India) with 
which the United States is at peace.  Essentially Masoud was 
charged for associating with people who were "conspiring to 
conspire"--planning to make a plan--although in a Washington 
Post article, the agent in charge of the Washington FBI 
field office conceded that the government had no evidence of 
specific plots against U.S. targets at home or abroad, and 
said that "a lot of this is about preemption."  At the time 
of his arrest, other Muslims from the Virginia paintball 
group were arrested; some issued pleas; two were released; 
but Masoud insisted he was innocent of all charges.
The government then brought new conspiracy charges against 
Masoud--for planning to aid the Taliban and al-Qaeda, not 
LET, although there was no evidence of this.  He was unable 
to testify in his own behalf at trial.  Convicted and 
sentenced to life without parole, Masoud said, "I am an 
American citizen, born in this country, and will always 
maintain my innocence of conspiring and intending to bring 
any harm upon the American people." At his sentencing the 
U.S. District Judge stated that she had no choice under the 
law but to impose consecutive prison terms on Khan, 
resulting in the lengthy prison terms. Typically, defendants 
serve concurrent terms.  She continued: "I have sentenced 
al-Qaida members who were planning real attacks on these 
shores for far less time ... and I have to tell you that 
this is sticking in my craw". At resentencing, the charge of 
planning to aid Al-Qaeda was dropped and his sentence was 
reduced by a mere 20 years.  His Petition for Habeas Corpus 
was denied and his appeal was also not permitted to be 
heard.

A Look at Corporate/Zionist Media
Misleading Report about Egypt's Christian Copts Published by 
Washington Post
The following note was received from Dr. M. L., a 
distinguished Christian teacher and preacher in 
Pennsylvania.
Hi Dr. Siddique,   I found this to be an interesting 
article. It appears that Coptic Christians are in a 
double-bind:http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/coptic-chrisians-fear-rise-of-islamists-on-eve-of-presidential-elections2012/05/12/gIQAnhgCLU_story.html?w pisrc=nl_headlines
New Trend's response
Thank you for the link you sent.
During  tyrant Mubarak's  rule, for 30 years, Coptic 
Christians were with the tyrant  and helped him to oppress 
the Muslim majority. Can you imagine a Muslim country where 
Islam was not allowed at the political level? The Copts 
supported Mubarak in that era of oppression. Mosques were 
attacked by Mubarak, Muslims tortured, their women 
threatened with rape, in some cases actually raped. [Anne 
Weaver has written a whole book on the oppression.]
Large Coptic churches were established in high density 
Muslim areas. The Copts enjoyed it.
They did not realize that Mubarak was using them. All 
dictators in Muslim countries use this tactic. They need 
someone to humiliate, torture and kill Muslims and desecrate 
their holy places, and the non-Muslim minorities fit the 
bill.
The Coptics, and for that matter America, did not think that 
Mubarak would ever be overthrown.
Check the glaring contradiction in the WP story. The Copts 
are supporting Mubarak's men even now.
They are so bold that about a year and a half back, the 
Copts kidnapped two of their chiefs' daughters who had 
embraced Islam. The women disappeared.
Neither the Salafis nor the Muslim Brotherhood hate the 
Copts. The conflicts appear at the local level where Muslims 
are the oppressed. WP is whipping up unnecessary suspicion 
against the Muslims. Unfortunately, the Copts have media 
support in both the US and Europe and have been trying, ever 
since Mubarak  fell, to smear the Islamic groups. The 
Islamics have no media support in the US [except New Trend].

Lesbian Couple Charged With Staging Hate Crime
Ed note From Mark Glenn-the implications of this are 
obvious, one of which is that we all have to question how 
many 'anti-Semitic' hate crimes are actually self-inflicted 
acts perpetrated by organized Jewish interests in furthering 
their own political/social/cultural agenda against Gentile 
societies.
ABCNEWS
A lesbian couple who claimed they were victims of a hate 
crime have been arrested after police determined they staged 
the incidents.
On Oct. 28, Aimee Whitchurch, 37, and Christel Conklin, 29, 
called police and reported the words "Kill the Gay" were 
scrawled in red spray paint on the garage door of their 
Parker, Colo., home.
The next day, the couple told deputies they found a noose 
hanging on the handle of their front door.
The women told officers they believed the incidents were 
retaliation from their neighbors and homeowner's 
association, who had complained the couple did not pick up 
after their dogs.
Due to the nature of the crimes, the Douglas County 
Sheriff's Office worked in tandem with the FBI to 
investigate. After reviewing witness statements, authorities 
determined Whitchurch and Conklin had staged the 
incidents.
Both women are charged with criminal mischief and false 
reporting. Whitchurch faces an additional charge of 
forgery.
She told ABC's Denver affiliate KMGH-TV police were mistaken 
and vowed to fight the charges.
"This is a fight I started. This is a fight I'm going to 
finish. This is a fight I'm right on," she said. "I have 
every right to live where I want to live."
Germany's Controversial History
Prof. Nolte Tackles Taboos of Third Reich History
Mark Weber [California]
http://www.ihr.org/jhr/v14/v14n1p37_Nolte.html
Decades after its dramatic demise, the Third Reich continues 
to fascinate millions and provoke heated discussion ... 
Consistent with the author's strong plea for a more 
thoughtful and objective look at the phenomenon of Hitler 
and National Socialism, Nolte presents his often highly 
unorthodox views without polemics, indeed with a certain 
reserve and tentativeness. Unlike those who incessantly 
insist that "we" must "never forget" the "lessons of the 
Holocaust," Nolte calls for an evaluation of the Hitler era 
as free as possible of strident, emotion-laden polemics and 
self-serving purposes.
New Trend editor adds: Hitler was never an enemy of Muslims. 
The Zionists have projected him as an enemy of ALL humanity. 
He was the ONLY European leader to espouse the Palestinian 
cause. He honored and welcomed Hajj Aminuddin Hussaini, the 
Mufti of Palestine. There were Islamic military units in the 
German army, each with its own imam, who fought so 
heroically against the Soviets that Hitler gave Qur'ans to 
their officers. By contrast, American troops in Iraq and 
Afghanistan and Israelis in occupied Palestine have 
desecrated the Qur'an. Are Muslims so brainwashed that they 
think their enemy's enemy is their enemy?

Islamic Coalition Called for Street Corner Rallies to keep 
the NATO Supply Routes Closed. There was a Jamaate Islami 
protest in front of Memon Masjid, Boulton Market [Karachi]. 
It was addressed by Muhammad Husain Mehnati, JI's Karachi 
ameer, urging the protestors to stand firm and persistent. 
One of the Urdu language placards called for an end to drone 
attacks.
Similar street corner rallies were held in every major city. 
A Zionist Smear: The ADL Attacks an Islamic Peace Conference
By Mark Weber Institute for Historical Review August 
2008
The  Anti-Defamation League is a master of deceit. A good 
example is the recent ADL  blast against a conference in 
suburban Baltimore  on August 16, 2008, where I was a 
speaker. Dedicated to peace and  cross-cultural 
understanding, the meeting was organized by Jamaat 
al-Muslimeen,  a local Islamic group.
The ADL, one of the  world's most influential Jewish-Zionist 
organizations, calls it a gathering  of  "Far Right and 
Muslim Extremists" who  found "common cause in their hatred 
of Jews and Israel." 
(http://www.adl.org/main_Anti_Israel/jamaat_baltimore_confernce.htm)
In fact, the conference  brought together men and women of 
diverse religious and racial backgrounds, and  a range of 
political views, who were united by devotion to peace and 
justice.
Contrary to what the ADL suggests, no conference speaker 
expressed hated of  Jews. Instead, speaker after speaker 
emphasized the importance of promoting  justice, peace and 
cross-cultural understanding. Ramsey Clark - a prominent  
peace activist who served as US Attorney General in the 
Johnson administration  -- spoke eloquently about the need 
for understanding between Christians and  Muslims, and the 
dangers of an arrogant and militaristic US foreign policy. 
He  movingly stressed the importance of justice even for the 
vilified and the  powerless. Chuck Carlson, a Christian 
activist, spoke about his campaign to  persuade churches to 
embrace the authentic Christian message of peace.
In my talk, I spoke in  some detail about the dangerous 
consequences of the US  alliance with Israel  and of the 
Jewish-Zionist grip on American political and cultural life. 
I  concluded with a call for awareness and unity for the 
sake of humankind. 
(http://www.ihr.org/other/aug08weber.html)
After explicitly  speaking against "hate," I emphasized: "We 
should not, and we do not, wish harm  to any individual 
because of his or her ancestry, ethnic background, religion  
or privately held beliefs."
According to the ADL,  "Weber told the audience that not 
only was the Iraq  war the result of `Jewish cabal,' but 
that the same `Jewish cabal' is currently  pushing for war 
with Iran."  In fact, my only mention of a "Jewish cabal" 
was when I cited remarks of a  prominent Labour Party member 
of the British parliament, who said in May 2003:  "A Jewish 
cabal have taken over the government in the United States 
and formed an unholy alliance with  fundamentalist 
Christians ... There is far too much Jewish influence in the 
United States."
As it has on many other occasions, the ADL once  again 
described the IHR as a "Holocaust denial organization." But 
as the IHR  website explains 
(http://www.ihr.org/main/about.shtml ), this smear is 
"completely at variance with the facts... Every responsible  
scholar of twentieth century history acknowledges the great 
catastrophe that  befell European Jewry during World War 
II."
In my talk, my only  mention of the deaths of Jews during 
the Second World War was a single ten-word  sentence I 
quoted from a speech by Malaysia president Mahathir  
Mohammed: "The Europeans killed six million Jews out of 
twelve million."
Is that what the ADL  means by "Holocaust denial"?
Conference speakers, the ADL charges, were  "well-known 
anti-Semites" and "prominent   domestic extremists." For the 
ADL and its allies, of course, an  "anti-Semite" is anyone 
who speaks forthrightly about Israel's  inhumane and illegal 
policies, or the harmful role of the organized Jewish  
community in political and cultural life. As one witty 
commentator has put it, "An anti-Semite used to be someone 
who hates Jews.  Now, it's someone whom Jews hate."
Only by the distorted standards of the ADL and its  allies 
can the conference speakers be considered "extremists." In 
fact, the  basic views and values presented at the meeting 
-- for peace, justice, and  unity against war and oppression 
- are supported by the vast majority of people  of good will 
around the world.
The ADL claims to  "counteract hatred, prejudice and 
bigotry." In fact, the group routinely  defends 
institutionalized discrimination of non-Jews by Israel, as 
well  as the Zionist state's routine violations of human 
rights and international  law.
As I explained in my talk, it's the ADL and its  allies who 
are "extreme" and out of step with world opinion. But the 
ADL's  minority view is not surprising, given its arrogantly 
ethno-centric mindset.  This outlook was candidly spelled 
out by ADL National Director Abraham Foxman  in an essay 
published in the group's monthly newsletter. He wrote: 
"...The  Holocaust is something different. It is a singular 
event. It is not simply one  example of genocide but a near 
successful attempt on the life of God's chosen  children 
and, thus, on God himself."
The ADL attack against the Baltimore peace conference is 
understandable,  because Zionists fear the growing unity and 
sense of common purpose by people  of diverse political and 
religious views who understand the Jewish-Zionist  agenda 
and what it means for humanity. Given the ADL's track record 
of malice  and deceit, this latest attack is a badge of 
honor
United Pakistani Islamics in their own words
DPC vows not to allow NATO supply from Pakistan at any 
cost
Government pinning the nation to wall; It has no moral 
reasoning to rule the country - Munawwar Hassan
Pakistan is a sovereign state and it would never be allowed 
to become an Indian market; India was equally involved with 
US in destabilising Pakistan - Hafiz Saeed
KARACHI: Jamaat-e Islami (JI) Pakistan Chief and Difa-e 
Pakistan Council (DPC) Central Leader Syed Munawwar Hassan 
has warned that any attempt to restore supply line of NATO 
through Pakistani soil would never bear fruit and the DPC 
would never allow to happen this evil. The United States of 
America wanted to convert the country as unprotected land 
and to carry out sabotage activities as it did in 
Silala.
"We are ready to pay for any price but would not allow US 
and NATO to get reinforcement through the country".
This he said while addressing a press briefing after an 
important DPC leader meeting held Saturday at Idara-e Noor-e 
Haq.
The present rulers were pushing the entire nation to wall 
and endorsing the wicked US and NATO to continue with the 
genocide of the Muslims of the region, he said adding that 
on May 27, the DPC would convene a grand workers convention 
at New MA Jinnah Road near Islamia College and on June 1, 
token sit-in would be staged at all divisional headquarters. 
The DPC leaders would carve out the pros and cons of the 
long march on June 5.
The press briefing was also addressed by Ameer Jamat-ud-dawa 
Prof. hafiz Muhammad Saeed. JI Secretary General Liaquat 
Baloch, JI Sindh Ameer Asadullah Bhutto, JI Karachi Ameer 
Muhammad Hussain Mahenti, Awami Muslim League President 
Shaikh Rasheed Ahmed, Jamiat Ulema Islam-S leader Mufti 
Usman Yar Khan, Pakistan Ulema Council Chairman Allama Tahir 
Mahmood Ashrafi, Ansar Al Umma leader Maulana Fazlur Rehman 
Khalil, Tehreek-e Difa-e Pakistan leader Zahid Bakhtawari, 
Jamat-ud-dawa leader Ameer Hamza and Maulana Yar Muhammad 
Khan were present.
JI Chief also expressed his deep concern on firing incident 
on a rally that was produced by Sindhi nationalists in the 
city.
While commenting on the incident of firing incident on a 
passenger bus in Benazirabad, he said that the government 
had failed to protect people's lives and the law enforcement 
agencies had also failed to play their role in this regard. 
The government had lost moral reasoning for staying in 
power.
He said that the religious seminary in Akoora Khattak under 
the auspices of Maulana Samiul Haq was targeted by the 
government.
He said that the DPC had decided to produce a LONG MARCH, 
which details would be finalized in a meeting with DPC 
leaders at Akoora Khattak on June 5. On May 27, workers 
convention would be held at New MA Jinnah Road, which would 
be addressed by DPC eminent leaders.
He said that DPC parties believed in the supremacy of law 
and all its programmes would be within the framework of the 
constitution of the country. He said that all the parties in 
DPC were absolutely peace-loving and would ensure all of its 
activities would be carried out peacefully.
Speaking on the occasion, Hafiz Saeed said that the LONG 
MARCH was only postponed earlier because the leaders of the 
parties in DPC had decided to use that tool on an 
appropriate occasion. He said that it was not only the 
United State but also India was also interfering in country 
and was equally involved in activities for desatbilising the 
country.
He said that Pakistan would never be allowed to become an 
Indian market because Pakistan was a sovereign state.
