From Imam Badi Ali: July 11, 2014. Photo.
Children joined a big Islamic rally to condemn Israel's 
genocidal assault on Gaza..
Demonstrators were fasting and the weather was hot. People 
from Sudan, Niger, Libya, Egypt, Somalia, Palestine, 
Pakistan, Iraq were there.
Stand for ♥ Gaza ♥
Imam Badi Ali, distinguished Palestinian-American leader, 
summed up Israeli aggression and our boycott movement in one 
graphic:
Khutba on Palestine
Palestine will be Victorious, Israel will be Destroyed, 
inshaAllah.
Muslims should be Future oriented: Seek help in Prayer and 
Perseverance
On July 11, Br. Kaukab Siddique gave the Juma khutba at 
Masjid Jamaat al-Muslimeen in central Baltimore. The khutba 
was much liked. The masjid was packed owing to Ramadan. Here 
are the main points future countrywide distribution:
- 
Ramadan teaches us taqwa, fear of Allah, which includes 
awareness and concern to do the right thing.
 - 
When the enemy has overwhelming force, that does not mean 
that the enemy is right.
- 
Noah preached for ages but his enemies opposed him and 
he felt overwhelmed. He prayed for help and Allah saved him 
and drowned his enemies.
 
 - 
Musa [Moses] pbuh, and the Muslims with him were pursued 
by Pharoah out of Egypt. They looked weak but Allah condemns 
Pharoah, not his victims. [There were no Jews at that time.] 
Allah saved them.
 - 
Isa, pbuh, [Jesus] had the greatest miracles but the Jews 
would not accept him. They decided to crucify him. They were 
stronger but Isa, pbuh was right. Allah exalted him and 
saved him.
 - 
Muhammad, pbuh, was forced to leave his home in Makkah 
and was pursued by the oppressors. His life was in danger. 
Physically the enemies were winning but Muhammad, pbuh, was 
right and Allah saved him.
 - 
Never think that the fire power of Israel means that 
Israel is winning. These Jews are tyrants and oppressors. 
InshaAllah they will be defeated and Israel will be 
remembered only as a tale of sound and fury told by an 
idiot.
 - 
Look at what Israel has done: 1000 air strikes in 4 days. 
Did you see the people of Gaza running away? Not one. This 
is unthinkable in any other population. Look at Ukraine: 
60,000 people ran away as soon as fighting began. [Even in 
Pakistan, the population of North Waziristan ran out when 
the military started bombing.]
 - 
Now look at the children of Palestine. You see the 
teenagers. Are they running away? They evade the Israeli 
attacks as if it is a game, though a deadly one. You see the 
very young ones: Can they ever like Israel? No chance! They 
are determined that Palestine under Islam will be 
victorious.
- 
However long it might take, these children will fight 
and defeat and destroy Israel, the gangster entity imposed 
on us by the USA.
 
 - 
Look right here in Baltimore: See how tough and fearless 
the young people. They need leadership and a clear program 
to achieve greatness. They do negative things because our 
message has not reached them.
 - 
One of the key reasons for the victory of Muhammad, 
pbuh, was that the young people were with him. Think of the 
great sahaba, r.a., Abdullah ibn Zubair, Abdullah ibn Umar, 
Abdullah ibn Abbas, Ayesha, Asma [Allah be pleased with 
them]. They were all extremely young.
 - 
If our young people are with us, the enemy cannot defeat 
us, even with all his money and power.
 - 
Do not let the media mislead you. These are all Zionist 
propagandists. They are practiced liars.
 - 
The Jews are killing our children, tearing their bodies 
apart, destroying homes and mosques.
 - 
Muslims! Unite against the Jews helping Israel. Get the 
Jews out of our communities. Remember the issue is not just 
the atrocities Israeli Jews are committing. The issue is 
Israel, a terrorist entity which has been imposed on us by 
the western powers.
 - 
Masjid al-Aqsa, the third holiest mosque of Islam, 
mentioned by Allah Almighty in the Qur'an, is under Jewish 
occupation, being desecrated by the Zionists.
 - 
Remember the hadith about the Prophet, pbuh, about  the 
harsh siege imposed on Madina by the united tribes of 
Arabia, al-Ahzab. In that seemingly impossible condition, 
Muhammad, pbuh, saw the overthrow of the Persian empire and 
the Roman empire.
- 
Always think ahead for victory and the Hereafter.
 
 - 
Muslims UNITE! and rise up against Zionism. Palestine 
will be victorious! Down with Zionism.
 
From Imam Badi Ali: We honor those who resist:
To those who are defending our land, our people, our honor, 
to the freedom fighters, may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala give 
you the strength to hit the enemies of humanity, hard.
Protest for Tyrone West - July, 18,  2014
by Nadrat Siddique
[A protest to coincide with the one-year death anniversary 
of Tyrone West will be held on Friday, July 18. The protest 
will be at 6 PM at Kitmore & Kelway, Baltimore, Maryland, 
the intersection where Tyrone was murdered.]
In a pattern of abuse of power, Baltimore's Zionist/racist 
States Attorney Gregg Bernstein, refused to prosecute the 
police officers. The West family has courageously stood 
outside the East Baltimore police station where the officers 
report each Wednesday since the murder, demanding justice 
for their son.
Updated on Thursday · Taken at Baltimore, MD
This was one in a series of weekly protests held by the 
family of Baltimore native Tyrone West. West was beaten to 
death on July 18 of last year by ten or more Baltimore City 
police officers, who alleged that the dreadlock sporting 
44-year old was fighting them during a traffic stop near 
Morgan State University. Eyewitnesses said West was dragged 
from his car by the dreadlocks, hit with batons, kicked and 
punched. He may have ultimately have experienced myocardial 
infarction as a result of the beating.
After an initial period of paid suspension while an 
investigation was pending, the officers involved were all 
reinstated with full rank. These included Jorge Omar 
Bernardez-Ruiz, Nicholas David Chapman, Matthew Rea Cioffi, 
Alex Ryan Hashagen, Eric Maurice Hinton, Danielle Angela 
Lewis, Derrick Dewayne Beasley, Latreese Nicole Lee--all of 
the BPD (Baltimore Police Department). In addition, a Morgan 
State University police officer was involved in the beating, 
and was similarly suspended with pay, and then reinstated. 
Despite a plethora of evidence and numerous eyewitnesses, 
there have, to date, been no convictions in this modern day 
lynching.
Two letters on Dr. Shabazz.
Looks like NOI and W.D. groups Hijacked Dr. Shabazz Funeral and Burial.
assalamu alaikum :
It strikes me as strange that Jamaat al-Muslimeen JAM] was 
not mentioned on this :
http://DrAAS.info/obituary.jpg
Dr Shabazz had been working with JAM at least 7 years that I 
know of .
I believe he attended all the Shooras during that time .
As much money as he donated to various causes including my 
Chess Tournaments ,
his family is asking for money for his burial .
He did not strike me as a man that had not planned such 
things .
I am not a member of his family so I guess I really have 
nothing to say to them about this .

Dr. Shabazz' Funeral was mismanaged: Was his will Lost? 
Couldn't be found?
As-salaamu-'alaikum,
Death can be a surprise for all of us, no matter what the 
circumstances. But I am surprised that Dr. Shabazz's funeral 
is taking place so late. Also, just some advice: I have been 
told to have two copies of a Will. One goes to a trusted 
source (executor or executrix) and the other copy goes your 
attorney. Sometimes, those W.D. Muslims can be strange. I 
have heard stories of them looking for wills, safes, etc. 
Unfortunately, it is the first thing that these people do. I 
just pray that this is all sorted out, insha'allah.
Salaam,
Sis. 'Aisha
Editor: The W.D. Muhammad prayer leader in Masjid Muhammad, 
Washington, DC could not explain janaza prayer. He simply 
did 4 takbeers as quickly as he could. Most of the speeches 
were in praise of NOI and WD group which Dr. Shabazz passed 
through at various stages of his life. He was not one of 
them.

Trial Begins for Azamat Tazhayakov
Innocents be dragged in: Young People's Guilt by Association
by Sis. Karin Friedemann
A foreign student from Kazakhstan, Azamat Tazhayakov, age 
20, is facing 25 years in prison for "obstruction of 
justice" and lying to the FBI. Dzhokhar (Jahar) Tsarnaev 
texted a mutual friend, Dias Kadyrbayev around the same time 
as his photo was released to the public as a suspect in the 
Boston Marathon bombings, saying "If you want, you can go to 
my room and take what's there," followed by a blushing 
smiley face, which defense attorney Wooldridge said was a 
symbol that meant marijuana to the friends.
The UMass Dartmouth students are accused of going into 
Jahar's dorm room along with a third friend, Robel Philipos, 
taking Tsarnaev's laptop and disposing of Tsarnaev's 
backpack, which contained fireworks. The three friends are 
to be tried separately. Azamat's father, a wealthy oil man 
and local Khazak politician, insisted on a speedy trial even 
though the attorneys wanted more time to prepare, so 
Azamat's trial comes first.
"The government will prove to you that the defendant and his 
co-conspirator removed the backpack for one reason, and that 
reason was to protect their friend who they had just learned 
was one of the two suspected Marathon bombers," said US 
assistant attorney Stephanie Siegmann in her opening 
statement.
The first witness was Andrew Dwinells, Jahar's roommate, who 
testified that Dias showed him a text that said something 
about Jahar leaving the country and he won't be back so Dias 
can go ahead and take what he wants.
Andrew testified that he saw Dias go into a drawer and take 
a bag of pot while the other two watched TV. He testified 
that he did not see any of the friends take the backpack or 
the computer. He never saw Jahar with any pressure cooker, 
BBs, or bomb making material. He also said Jahar acted 
normally after the marathon. Andrew says he didn't think 
Jahar was a terrorist. Andrew testified that he and Jahar 
once discussed the theory that 9/11 was a government 
conspiracy.
The next witness was Alexa Guevara, another UMass Dartmouth 
student. She said her girlfriends called Azamat "Mama's Boy" 
because he was always the good one among the friends. She 
also testified that Jahar never said anything anti-American 
to her. Alexa's eyes teared up when testifying that she 
never thought Jahar could do anything like that. Even after 
the FBI released Jahar's picture she did not believe it.
FBI Agent Sara Wood next testified that Azamat had told her 
that Dias showed him a text from Jahar on the evening of 
April 18, 2013 saying that he did the bombing. However, the 
FBI has not been able to produce this text, despite their 
thorough investigation of the boys' cell phones and 
computers.
Defense attorney Myers aggressively questioned Wood as to 
why she looked at the prosecutor when answering whether 
Azamat said he or Dias took the backpack.
The defense also suggested that FBI agents did not allow 
Azamat to use the bathroom until he signed a waiver of his 
rights.
Dias' partner, Bayan Kumiskali gave testimony on video as a 
cooperating witness. "The black-haired beauty from 
Kazakhstan attended Babson College while Dias was at UMass 
with Tsarnaev," tweeted journalist Laurel J. Sweet.
Bayan said she didn't want any of that stuff that was taken 
from Jahar's dorm room. On 4/18, she was in the New Bedford 
apartment and Dias left for about 1.5 hours starting around 
9:30pm. Dias told her he had Jahar's backpack in the privacy 
of the bedroom later that night. She was "mad" when she 
heard this and told him to "get it out of here."
"He hadn't thought this might be something." she said.
The most clear proof that the boys did not intend to 
obstruct justice is the fact that inside the backpack was 
Jahar's homework assignment. They were clearly not hiding 
evidence. As an engineering major, Jahar's roommate Andrew 
owned a lab kit, which contained wire, wire cutters, and 
other items. The kit was in plain sight on his bookcase on 
the 18th, but Dzhokhar's three friends did not take it.
Most likely, they literally took what they wanted from 
Jahar's room because they knew he wasn't coming back: a 
laptop, marijuana, fireworks, a thumb drive, a spiral 
notebook and a jar of Vaseline. Most likely they took the 
fireworks because they wanted them.
However, they didn't take all the fireworks. The FBI also 
admitted in testimony last week that more fireworks were 
found in the dorm room. FBI agent David McCollan testified 
that the fireworks were torn but some explosive powder 
remained. Even though fireworks are not an efficient source 
of bomb making material, one would think that if the 
fireworks were used to make a bomb they would be cut cleanly 
at the top and completely emptied out.
Neither Aza nor Dias threw away the computer. The thumb 
drive was found in the trash but if there was any 
incriminating evidence on it I'm sure we would have learned 
of it.
The most incriminating thing Azamat could come up with to 
say to the FBI about his friend was, "that Jahar had a 
'little black gun' that shot pellets, and he once witnessed 
him shoot at a plastic bottle.
St. Petersburg, Florida: USA
Thank You, President Obama. Love, Israel
Posted By Chris Ernesto On July 11, 2014 @ 11:00 pm
Dear President Obama,
We must confess, when you became President, some of us were 
a little worried that America's "special relationship" with 
Israel would come to an end.
We were concerned that the United States would no longer 
provide money, weapons, and most importantly, diplomatic 
cover to Israel.
After all, Jimmy Carter - a former President from your own 
political party - has been highly critical of Israel's 
treatment of Palestinians. He even had the nerve to say that 
Hamas was democratically elected, and that our policy 
towards Palestine is worse than South African apartheid.
We were fearful that your passionate speech in Cairo in 2009 
would make Muslims believe that an Obama presidency would be 
a neutral player in Israel's fight against the terrorists 
from Palestine.
But, thankfully, through your actions as President, you have 
alleviated our anxieties.
Your unconditional support of Israel is on full display 
today. Because of your administration's financial support of 
our Iron Dome weapon system, no Israelis have been killed in 
our surge on Gaza. And although we have already killed at 
least 100 Palestinians, including 21 children, and have 
wounded over 500 people, you have not publicly condemned our 
actions (thanks!).
On Thursday, you offered to negotiate a cease-fire between 
Israel and Palestine. Since you have repeatedly labeled 
Hamas a "terrorist organization" with whom you are unwilling 
to sit down, your offer to negotiate was pretty clever - 
maybe Palestinians won't catch on to the fact that you are 
really on our side, and they will agree to have the US act 
as mediator. Fingers crossed.
We are thrilled, but not surprised by your absolute backing 
of Israel at present. You showed your true colors two years 
ago when you said you were "fully supportive" of Israel's 
bombing of Gaza in 2012.
Clearly, you are wise enough to understand that American 
elections are greatly influenced by pro-Israel donors. For 
this wisdom we say, "thank you."
Of course, you will forever be in our debt for voting 
against Palestinian statehood in 2012. For you to take that 
stand - when virtually every other country in the world 
wanted to formally recognize Palestine as an independent 
nation - wow, that was gutsy, and because of your courage, 
Palestine today has fewer legal remedies.
You have continued to veto those frivolous United Nations 
resolutions that condemn the great State of Israel. How can 
we ever thank you enough for that?
You have remained relatively silent as Israeli settlements 
rightfully continue their expansion. You even said that you 
would abandon your push to stop settlement expansion.
And you have been very careful to never utter the words 
"collective punishment" in discussing our embargo on 
Gaza.
Few countries understand what it's like to be Israeli or 
American. That's why we have to stick together, like in 2010 
when we were the only two countries to vote against ending 
the embargo on communist Cuba.
Many of us in Israel were previously concerned about all 
those pesky "Free Palestine" protesters in the US. But we're 
not worried about them anymore because many of those same 
people continue to vote for you and other Democrats, thus 
insuring that Israel will be able to do as it so 
chooses.
We really appreciate your support of the coup in Egypt that 
ousted the Muslim Brotherhood from power. They were big 
supporters of Palestinians. As you know, Egypt's new leader, 
Abdul Fattah al-Sisi believes Hamas is a terrorist 
organization and an offshoot of the Brotherhood, so we don't 
have to worry about which side Egypt will be on in our fight 
against Palestinians.
We must say that we still have concerns about your support 
of neo-Nazis in Ukraine. As you know, we have a bad history 
with Nazis. But we understand your country's desire to 
control Eurasia and to weaken Russia, so as long as you let 
Israel reap the benefits of the American Empire, we can let 
this one slide.
The fact that your presidency has continued to demonize Iran 
has been very beneficial to us. It's been difficult for 
Israelis to get people to understand that Iran - even though 
they haven't attacked another country in recent memory - is 
a serious threat to Israel. Sure, Iran knows we could nuke 
them, but they just want to wipe Israel off the face of the 
earth, so they don't fear a nuclear reprisal.
And speaking of nuclear weapons, you sure helped Israeli 
officials sleep better when your administration announced 
that it would implement a "don't ask, don't tell" policy 
regarding our massive nuclear weapons arsenal.
Some people say that Israel is like the little brother who 
constantly runs his mouth and starts fights because he has a 
big brother who's always there to bail him out of any 
trouble. Well, to that we say, thank you big brother. Others 
are just jealous.
We know that if the US criticized Israel the same way it 
criticizes Russia, Syria, Venezuela or Iran, the rest of the 
world would jump on board and force Israel to change. After 
all, the US is pretty much in full control of the UN, the 
IMF, the World Bank and NATO. That's why we are particularly 
appreciative of your undying support of Israel.
It always warms our hearts when you say that Israel has the 
"right to defend itself" but you have never said that 
Palestinians have that same right. That really helps our 
cause.
In 2012 you signed a law increasing military aid to Israel 
just one day before your then-Presidential opponent Mitt 
Romney made a trip to the Holy Land. Some said it was a 
political ploy to prove that Democrats are just as 
"pro-Israel" as the Republicans. Nonsense, we say. You were 
just strengthening Israel's already advanced weaponry. Just 
like when you secretly supplied us with bunker-buster 
bombs.
You provided cover for Israel in 2011 by saying we had the 
right to kill 20 Palestinian protesters who were 
commemorating the Nakba. When you praised our "restraint" on 
this matter, a potential firestorm was avoided, particularly 
because our government initially blamed the killings on 
Syria. Because of your support, we were able to acknowledge 
our role in the killings without fear of reprisal.
You will never know how many pro-Israel supporters you 
gained when you spoke at the American Israel Public Affairs 
Committee (AIPAC) meeting in 2011. The crowd went wild when 
you said, "So make no mistake, we will maintain Israel's 
qualitative military edge." That was huge.
We recognize the "little" things you do, too. Like how your 
administration tried to stymie an independent U.N. 
investigation into alleged Israeli war crimes during our 
2008-2009 incursion into Gaza. Thanks to WikiLeaks, we in 
Israel learned of your valiant efforts.
And how you refused to accept the Palestinian unity deal, 
which brought Hamas and Fatah together. And you really made 
a statement when you withdrew the US from UNESCO in response 
to its approval of Palestine's membership. We like it when 
you pound your fists on the table on behalf of Israel.
We were in a pickle when a UN probe said there was clear 
evidence to back prosecutions against Israel for killing and 
torture when our heroic troops stormed a Gaza-bound aid 
flotilla in 2010. The vote was 30-1, with the your country, 
the US, as the lone dissenter. That's a true friend.
Prior to you becoming President, some people in Israel 
confidently assured fellow citizens that you would be a deep 
supporter of Israeli interests. They believed this to be 
true because in 2008, just 12 hours after your victory in 
the Democratic Presidential primaries, you showed up at 
AIPAC wearing an Israel/US lapel pin, telling the crowd that 
you "understood the Zionist idea." Clearly this gesture was 
a quid-pro-quo with your pro-Israel donors, and was a way 
for you to prove that an Obama presidency would always put 
Israel at the top of its pecking order. That was a good move 
on your behalf.
And there were earlier signs of your unwavering support of 
Israel that we should have spotted. While you were just a 
Senator, you co-sponsored a Senate resolution demanding that 
the US do nothing to impede Israel's military actions in 
Lebanon in 2006. That meant so much to us, because you ran 
the risk of appearing to be a "hawk" at a time when the 
people of the US were growing tired of the Bush 
administration's foreign policy. You rolled the dice.
Well, your gamble has paid off, and you have achieved your 
political dreams, and at the same time you have made Israel 
quite happy.
For this, we say thank you. Because of you, your party, and 
the rest of the US government, Israel is free to act as it 
pleases. You, President Barack Obama, are the best friend 
Israel has ever had.
With warmest regards,
Israel

Media Misleadingn America.
ABC News: The "blunder" of Diane Sawyer out of love of Israel
by Justin Romondo [antiwar.com]
Excerpted.
Poor Diane Sawyer - recently kicked upstairs by ABC News, 
she started off her Wednesday report on the Israeli assault 
on Gaza by giving us the Bizarro World version of the latest 
news. In a conflict where as of this moment 86 Palestinians 
have been killed - nearly all civilians, mostly women and 
children - and as many as 1,000 wounded, with exactly zero 
casualties in Israel, Sawyer directed our attention to "the 
rockets raining down on Israel" - while on the screen we saw 
Israeli jets pounding Gaza. Pointing to a still photo 
clearly of Palestinians dragging a mattress through the 
rubble, she described it as "an Israeli family trying to 
salvage what they can."
In Bizarro World - where up is down, black is white, and 
truth is falsehood - this makes perfect sense. And it kind 
of does in our world, too, on at least two levels.
ABC later acknowledged the "error," but one wonders: a lie, 
once in circulation and widely accepted, is hard to refute, 
no matter how many "corrections" are issued. Lots of people 
still think Saddam Hussein organized the 9/11 attacks, and 
they don't all work at the Weekly Standard. War propaganda, 
which is largely dependent on visual images larded with 
shock value, is not especially subtle. The idea is to bypass 
the rational mind and appeal directly to the target's 
emotions.
On another level, as Peter Hart over at FAIR put it, "ABC's 
error should be seen less as a simple mistake, and more as a 
reflection of a worldview." It's an intriguing idea - 
intriguing because we aren't told exactly what worldview. Or 
whose worldview. Hart vaguely describes this unidentified 
bias as being a sin of "the corporate media," but what does 
this really mean? All media is "corporate" in the sense that 
it consists of groups of people working to bring you the 
news and somehow making money at it - or, in our case, as in 
the case of all non-neocon nonprofits, generating some 
income albeit barely breaking even. So what does being 
"corporate" - assuming this means "for profit" - have to do 
with being unabashedly pro-Israel?
It isn't just the "corporate" media that's part of the 
hasbara echo chamber: as Max Blumenthal points out, former 
Israeli prison guard Jeffrey Goldberg has been the only 
guest to address the current conflict on the Charlie Rose 
Show - Public Television's toniest talkfest.
So if it's not a capitalist conspiracy, then what accounts 
for the all-pervasive pro-Israeli bias of the American 
media, which starts out every account of events on the 
ground with images of Israeli victimhood, downplaying or 
outright ignoring the suffering of the Palestinians, which 
is a hundred times greater? And how do we explain Sawyer's 
"error" in this context?
The Zionist project is a settler colony: that is, a foreign 
invasion, in this case one launched not by another 
nation-state but by a movement that was international in 
scope from the very beginning.

Pro-Democracy, Anti-Coup Marches Across Egypt Protest High 
Prices, Gaza Raids
Pro-Democracy, Anti-Coup Marches Across Egypt Protest High 
Prices, Gaza Raids
As new waves of protests flood Egypt's cities, towns and 
streets, murderous military gangs kill unarmed demonstrators 
in cold blood.
Friday, July 11,2014 20:28
Rallies in support of democratic legitimacy swept through 
Cairo and all other governorates of Egypt, in the new 
"Commanders crush the poor" protest week called by the 
Anti-Coup Pro-Legitimacy National Alliance.
Despite the violent, murderous maximum-force approach 
applied in cold-blooded brutality by the coup's security 
forces, especially today (Friday), demonstrations flooded 
the streets, denouncing the high price rises and the Zionist 
raids on the Gaza Strip.
On Friday afternoon, the National Alliance in Ain-Shams and 
Matareya (east of Cairo) announced the death of two people 
shot dead by coup security forces using live bullets against 
unarmed non-violent demonstrators.
Coup forces killed Aweys Nasreddin, 69, outside his home, as 
he returned from Friday prayers. He was the father of the 
Martyr Nasr Aweys, himself killed earlier on - in the Battle 
of the Camel - in the January 25, 2011 Revolution. Also, 
today, coup forces shot dead an 18 year-old student called 
Mazen Mohamed Sayed.
Analysis
CNN Preparing Americans for a Ground Invasion of Gaza, 
Justifying 750 Israeli Air Strikes.
by Kaukab Siddique
CNN carried out a major piece of propaganda, 6 PM EST, to 
justify a possible invasion of Gaza. Look at how heavily 
weighted it was.
- 
Wolf Blitzer, a known hard core Zionist Jew, was put in 
charge of the propaganda piece.
 - 
Blitzer went to Jerusalem to report though Jerusalem is 
occupied territory even by UN and US standards.
 - 
His focus was on the incoming rockets from Gaza. Jews 
running for shelter. Isn't it terrible?
He plays the sirens as two rockets made it to Jerusalem. 
 - 
In an aside he points out that 2 Israeli police were 
injured, one car caught fire and a house was damaged.
[My comment: These rockets are mere acts of defiance. 
Obviously Hamas has no radar or targeting mechanism. 
Metaphorically this is likethe Palestinian kid throwing 
stones at a huge Israeli tank.]
 - 
Blitzer proudly shows us massive Israeli tanks who might 
"have to" go in to stop the rocket fire.
 - 
He brings in an Israeli general to claim that Israelis 
actually knock on the roofs of homes [believe it, he said it 
with no comment by Blitzer] to ensure that people leave, and 
then they warn anyone remaining [by phone?] and then hit. 
- 
Blitzer keeps repeating the Israeli line that civilians 
are killed because Hamas hides its weapons among families! 
 
 - 
Blitzer must have realized that the pro-Israeli 
propaganda was becoming surrea. So he brought a secularist 
Palestinian who pointed out, coyly, that how could Israel 
have killed 90 people and wounded 600 if it was "tapping on 
their roofs.!" [LOL!]
 - 
After Blitzer has done his job of extreme disinformation, 
he brings in his junior fellow, Ben Wedeman, also a Jew, in 
Gaza. He shows no running people, no terrorized children. He 
does show Palestinians carrying a child's body. Compared to 
Blitzer, he is a better reporter.
The overall impression is that: Its so sad that Palestinian 
civilians are getting killed but its their own fault and 
Israel is doing what it has to do.
 
Obama's call of support to Netanyahoo is mentioned and it 
implies if Israel stops it will be owing o Obama's good 
advice. So Obama will come out as the good guy.
supporters are also told by CNN that the US has stored $1 
billion worth of munitions in Israel, just in case! So not 
to worry.

Khutbas Across Pakistan in Solidarity with Palestine
by Anwar Niazi
Palestine Solidarity observed
LAHORE, July 11: Palestine Solidarity Day was observed 
across the country on Friday on the appeal of the Milli 
Yakjehti Council (MYC) to express the nation's concern over 
the killings of the innocent Palestinians in Israel 
bombings.
The Ulema and Khatibs in their Friday addresses, condemned 
the Israeli bombings besides the indifference of the Muslim 
rulers over the Israel's attacks in Gaza resulting in large 
scale killings of Palestinian men, women and children. They 
underlined the need for the unity of the Ummah to enable the 
Muslim world face the enemy designs.
`Secretary General, Jamaat e Islami, Liaqat Baloch, has said 
that the US, the United Nations and the Muslim rulers were 
responsible for the delay in the solution of the Palestine 
issue.
In his address at the Friday congregation at Jamia Masjid 
Rahimya, Gulberg, the JI central leader said that the 
Zionist state is a US baby, and was shedding the blood of 
the Palestinians but there was no check on her.  He said, 
the Muslims were being victimized in Kashmir, Burma, Iraq, 
Syria and in some African states but the  world community 
remained unmoved.
Liaqat Baloch said that the people of Pakistan stood with 
their Palestinian brothers in their hour of trial.
