"Has not the time arrived for the believers that their hearts in all
humility should engage in the remembrance of Allah and of the Truth
which has been revealed to them, and that they should not become
like those to whom was given the Book aforetime, but ages passed over
them and their hearts grew hard? For many among them are rebellious
transgressors." (The Qur'an 57:16)
Lackawanna Five: Clear Cut Case of U.S. Oppression of Muslim Citizens
American Muslim Council (AMC) bootlicker Group Involved in FBI arrests
Muslim Unity is Essential: Try to Understand Why the case is
highly Publicized
On Saturday, September 14, 2002 there was a dramatic announcement by
the U.S. government. The government announced that it had nabbed
an "Al-Qaida cell" within the U.S in the little town of Lackawanna,
on the outskirts of Buffalo, New York state.. Note our analysis of
what happened:
1. A top level publicity stunt was carried out to impress the public.
Just about ALL news channels were used showing the drama of some of
the highest government officials projecting their "catch." The FBI chief,
Mueller, was there, along with Governor Pataki of New York and the
Deputy Attorney General of the U.S.
2. NO PICTURES OF THOSE ARRESTED or their FAMILIES were shown to
create the impression that these were shadowy terrorists. They were not
to be seen as citizens or humans.
3. The word "alleged" was left out of descriptions of those described
as "Al Qaida" terrorists and operatives. The impression created was
that the government is sure these are al-Qaidah.
4. Photos of the men appeared on TV screens in the dehumanizing mug
shots like those of the alleged 9.11 hijackers.
5. The FIVE were first described as "men of Yemeni descent," then as
"naturalized citizens of Yemeni descent." Only 24-hours later, when
the main story had already been distributed, a couple of channels
pointing out that the five were U.S. born!
6. The five were "tried and convicted" on TV by the senior government
officials mentioned above. The government's story is so weak that it
would have little chance in any fair court. The publicity was
probably meant to taint any jury, if a trial by jury does occur.
7. NOW LOOK AT THE CHARGES: The government admits that the Five were
not involved in any criminal activities or terroristic activities.
Also, the government admits, they are not part of any
"Al-Qaida network" within the U.S. [Thus the government has destroyed
the very basis of its publicity, that this is an Al-Qaida "cell!"]
7a. So what was the problem? The government claims that the five went
to a camp in
Afghanistan
and received weapons training. When did they go according to this
story? In June 2001.
7b. The government story does not seem to be true because the
government claims that it has been investigating the men for SIX
months. It was obviously a failed investigation because the
government could not come up with anything other than what it
already knew BEFORE the investigation: the alleged visit to Afghanistan
7c. As both
Pakistan
and Saudi Arabia have said, many of the men
in Guantanamo Bay are NOT Al-Qaida. They went to Afghanistan for
charitable purposes. The same is probably true of the Lackawanna Five.
8. Another charge is that Osama bin Laden came to the camp and made
a speech. Readers should remember that there was no evidence against
Osama in June 2001 (as there still isn't). Listening to a speech does
not make a person a terrorist. Millions all over the world have
heard Osama's speeches, some of which have even been projected by
American TV.
LISTENING IS CERTAINLY NOT A CRIME.
----------------------------------------------
That's all folks; the FIVE U.S. citizens are imprisoned owing to
these flimsy charges.
------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION: Why this maximum publicity given to arrests of U.S. CITIZENS
who have not even been brought to court for a basic indictment?
When governments have some reasonable suspicions about alleged
terrorists, they keep them under wraps. They watch the "terrorists"
to unearth their contacts and then catch them in flagrante delicto
(or red handed). Why the maximum publicity?
It appears that the government has several birds to kill with this one
"stone." At the tactical level, the U.S. wants to scare the public into
thinking that there are ACTUAL Al-QAIDA CELLS WITHIN THE U.S. and
that these cells might be constituted of U.S. CITIZENS who are Muslims.
Thus the government is setting off a countrywide ALERT against U.S.
citizens who are Muslims. The hunt for Muslims is on. THE GOVERNMENT
WANTS THE PEOPLE TO THINK THAT AL-QAIDA CELLS EXIST WITHIN THE U.S.
The third "bird" is the most important. DIVIDE THE MUSLIMS AND MAKE
THEM SPY ON EACH OTHER.
That's where the role of the American Muslim Council (AMC) comes in.
-----------------------------------------
During the publicity drama on September 14 and 15, a Dr. KHALID QAZI
from AMC repeatedly came on TV to affirm that indeed he and his
friends (whom he tried to define as the "Muslim community") had helped
to start the whole "investigation" and played a key role in it.
Qazi seemed to be quite proud of his role as a spy.
Our readers may remember that we have been consistently pointing out
that the AMC is an anti-Islam group which has been working with the
FBI for years. WHEN THE CASE OF
DR. OMAR ‘ABDEL RAHMAN
was going to begin, a Zionist Jew, Michael Mukasey, was the judge.
When the defense objected, the AMC along with a Jewish organization
jointly filed an amicus curae brief okaying the Jewish judge in such
a high profile
Islamic
leader's case. [This documentation of AMC treachery is available with
New Trend.] (Go to our web site,
www.newtrendmag.org
to obtain audio tapes related to the railroading of Dr. Omar ‘Abdel
Rahman.) The AMC helped the U.S. to convict an Islamic leader.
Later, AMC leader Al-Amoudi, got his reward when he was invited to a
conference in Cairo organized by Egyptian dictator Mubarak in person.
(Al-Amoudi proudly published the photo of himself in the AMC
newsletter at the
Mubarak
conference.)
---------------------------------------------
Now with the case of the Lackawanna Five, the FBI's penetration into
the Muslim community is becoming apparent. The U.S. is carrying
out systematic psychological warfare against the Muslims of America.
1. Stage one was to let the Muslims know that, however much they
might wave the flag, they can ALL be brought down. Raids on PRO-U.S.
MUSLIMS, like Al-Alwani and Iqbal Yunus, were part of this policy
of GIVING WARNING and spreading fear.
2. Stage 2. Stop ALL MUSLIM charitable help to
Palestinian,
Chechnian,
Iraqi,
Somali, Bosnian-Kosovar widows, orphans and the needy. Major
Muslim charities, run by tame Muslims, were closed down.
3. Those who are well placed should be used to hunt the poor and the
lower-middle-class who are not so integrated into the power structure.
Dr. Qazi is the type of bootlicker Muslim who would sell his own mother
to keep his position in American society.
[Number 4 does not apply to AMC.]
4. THOSE, LIKE ISNA, who allow FBI recruitment in their communities
should be honored and publicized and praised. [Note that these
pro-government elements have beards and their women wear hijab.
Here is apostacy in full hijab. Thus the Muslim community will be
totally confused when the criterion of prayer, beard, hijab will
be apparent among those who help the government.]
-------------------------------------------
Muslims must become politically mature. Do not become mentally
"recruited." If you want to survive as Muslims and to be respected by
your children, do not try to please the Jews. They will destroy you
after they have used you.
We DENOUNCE government action against the Lackawanna Five. The rights
of Muslim citizens of this country are being violated by these
"show trials" being held on TV. ALL CITIZENS and all PERSONS must be
treated as innocent until proven guilty BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT.
That does mean, no airing of anti-Muslim propaganda.
--------------------------------------------
THE CASES THE MEDIA AND THE ASHCROFT REGIME ARE HIDING:
On September 13, 2002 Osama Awadallah, originally from Jordan,
was released after being held in prison for ALMOST a YEAR in
connection with the WTC attack. THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE AGAINST HIM. He
is planning to sue the FBI but he got only 7 seconds on TV. [Most of
the channels ignored his case.]
Earlier, about two weeks back, a
Syrian
named MARHAB, was released (
and deported) after being in prison FOR ALMOST A YEAR. He was arrested
the day after 9.11 and was held for almost a year. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY
NO EVIDENCE AGAINST HIM. He got 5 seconds on TV.
------------------------------------------
So dear reader, just because the FBI has arrested someone and claimed
all kinds of stories against him ON TV, does not mean that the case
is genuine.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The THREE MUSLIMS STOPPED on a FLORIDA HIGHWAY for 14 hours at the
behest of an informant have been told that they have lost their
internships in the Miami hospital they were driving to. REASON:
The hospital received threatening calls! Thus, now all the Jews have
to do is to make "threatening calls" to a place where a Muslim is
working and the Muslim loses his job. [The calls are not traced and the
callers not punished: guess why!]

NEW INFORMATION ON BOYCOTT MOVEMENT AGAINST
ISRAEL
AND
JEWISH
AND
OTHER BUSINESSES WHICH SUPPORT ISRAEL. Sister ‘Aisha has sent us the
boycott list which is extra valuable in that it contains the email
addresses of some businesses and phone-fax numbers of most. Can you
help with this struggle? Remember, tanks of the
Zionist
murderers are
standing at the doors of Palestinian homes. Entire populations have been
placed under curfew by the Jewish thugs and murderers. Homes are
being blown up, civilians shot down, leaders assassinated. Ultimately
the Jewish hydra will be defeated but you can advance the struggle
by cutting off YOUR funds from reaching the servants of satan, all
the Zionist Jews working with Sharon, Peres, Natanyahoo to enslave
the Palestinian people.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Remember, tomorrow is the anniversary of SABRA-SHATILLA, one of the
biggest crimes of Sharon. If you are part of ISNA, ask your friend
President
Bush
why he honors Sharon.
