Request from Sis. Hamdiyeh in South Carolina: Please pray for the
safety of the
Islamic
prisoners in Guantanamo Bay as a big storm moves into Cuba
and surrounding areas. Cuba has done big transfers of population in the
face of the storm. It's not clear whether the U.S. is fulfilling its
international
obligation to provide a secure environment to Islamic prisoners as the
storm comes in.

1. BIGGEST EXPLOITER OF WOMEN IN THE WORLD: ISRAEL
"The Prophet (pbuh) never oppressed or hurt women." Hazrat 'Ayesha
(r.a.) [Hadith]
We have received extensive information on Israeli oppression of
women. It will take some time to prepare it for publication. In the
meantime,
we present the tip of the iceberg of that information which was
published in
an Israeli newspaper Ma'ariv, on June 16, 2002 and was translated from
Hebrew
into English by Palestine Times published from London, England about
two
months back. Notice that it was NOT REPORTED BY ANY OF THE MAJOR MEDIA
IN
AMERICA who constantly show concern for the suffering of women in
Afghanistan,
Pakistan,
Nigeria,
Jordan, Saudi Arabia. [Note: This information
is not for children and may be offensive to adults who are new to the
struggle and don't know the reality of the world.]
"The world's LARGEST market for trade in white women is located in
Israel... White-slave traders import and smuggle thousands of young
girls
from Moldavia, Estonia, Latvia and various former Soviet republics to
WORK AS
PROSTITUTES in Israel. ... The imported girls are treated like animals
in a livestock market. After the girl is undressed completely, the
prospective
buyer examines every bit of her body, including the size of her breasts
and
genitals. Initially some girls hesitate to undress, but eventually they
do as ordered because they have no other choice.
"It is the first order of business that the boss has sex with the
would-be prostitute before she is officially instated in her job, that
is in order to ascertain her ability to work and make the customers feel
good."
"When she undresses, she is asked to move around as beauty models do, and
then the prospective buyer would examine her tongue, teeth and genitals
to make sure that she is physically sound." (The translator summarizes the
next segment thus: The girl-owner keeps the girl's passport and bars her
from leaving the premise where she "works." He often threatens to report
to the
police, warning her that she would be jailed for 20 years if she was
caught.)
"An average beautiful slave-girl works 16 hours a day, from 6 p.m
to 10 a.m., during which time she 'entertains' 20 customers."
----------------------------------------------------
More information coming up on women in Israel, soon, inshallah. JEWS IN THE
MEDIA, such as Larry King, Wolf Blitzer, Ted Koppel, Andrea Koppel, as
well as
Zionists
like Nachman, the
NPR
crowd, the famous Jew on 60 Minutes and the
big fat right wing radio man (strange bed fellows), all pretend that they
havn't heard of the suffering of women in Israel. They are the first to
receive translations of Israeli papers but they won't own up.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. TIME Magazine's September 23, 2002 issue on captured Terrorists:
BUUT SHIKAN (Idol Breaker) reports. For the first time TIME Magazine
got me
fooled. I actually spent (can you believe this!) $3.95 on this issue of
TIME.
It's front cover said IN LARGE BLOCK LETTERS:
CONFESSIONS OF AN AL-QAEDA TERRORIST with a fuzzy photo of
(supposedly) Omar al-Farooq captured in Indonesia.
How could I have known that one of the most widely circulated
magazines in the world would have a FABRICATION printed in block
letters on
its cover (the word "TERRORIST" is really big and right across the
cover).
For good measure TIME added a story on the alleged capture of Ramzi
Binalshibh and, mark this, even the five (now six) MUSLIMS ARRESTED IN
BUFFALO. [Thus before the defense had completed its statement, TIME had
condemned the five Muslims and outreached even the FBI who had not yet
"captured" the sixth innocent from his marriage bed.]
I thought I was going to get some honest journalism for my $3.95 (almost
240 Rupees). Instead I got a bunch of lies which no honest journalist
would ever write.
How do I know it's a fabrication?
When reading a report, first look at its sources. What do we have here
in TIME:
1. "According to a secret CIA document and regional intelligence
reports
obtained by TIME .... " (p.35). Thus TIME has a special relationship
with the
CIA which in itself destroys the credibility of a journalist. How can a
CIA
document be called "secret" if it is "obtained" by TIME. It's obviously
prepared
for TIME and the gullible people who read TIME. As a U.S. citizen, try
getting information from the government, even if it 20 years old and
you pay
hundreds of dollars under the Freedom of Information act. You might end
up waiting for months if not years and then get a document in which most
of the real information has been blacked out. See MALCOLM X: THE FBI FILE.
2. Then we are told that "according to a secret CIA summary of the
interview,
al-Faruq confessed...." (p.37) Here we are not even getting a document
which
TIME allegedly was given but a SUMMARY of an alleged CONFESSION by the
alleged "terrorist."
3. After that TIME tries to do a job on Indonesia's Islamic leader
Abubakar
Ba'asyir. For this bunch of allegations the source is: "The
intelligence
documents combined with TIME's investigation of al-Faruq's past."(p.37)
In
other words: JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT. Here TIME tries to connect the
Islamic leader with al-Qaida and then carries out a mock trial in which
Al-Faruq supposedly accuses Ba'asyir of being "behind a 1999 bombing of
Jakarta's largest mosque and then blamed Christians for the act." Thus
we have a serious escalation of allegations which even the Indonesian
government is not buying.
[TIME is ignoring the massacres of thousands of Muslims by Christians
in Indonesia, including slaughter and rape conducted in the mosques of
helpless
Muslims by Christian gangsters armed with automatic weapons provided
allegedly by Israel. So here you have the WACO syndrome: KILL THEM AND
THEN BLAME THEM FOR THEIR SUFFERING.]
Once TIME has the camel's nose in the tent, that CIA reports and
summaries are acceptable in this dirty journalism, TIME goes on the
roll. It
tries to connect the Indonesian Islamic movement to Moussaoui, now on trial
in the U.S., on the basis of "a separate intelligence report." (P.37).
Once
that door has been opened, TIME has no compunction and tries to connect
Al-Qaeda to al-Haramain Islamic Foundation in saudi Arabia on the basis
that:
"Al-Faruq told the CIA ..." So here we have an incestuous relationship
developing between TIME's alleged sources.
Once the reader has accepted the "secret" sources as acceptable, then
the rest is easy. TIME reports a plan to kill the Indonesian President
(similar to the story spread about Pakistan's Musharref).
There is no solid reporting here. There is not even a claim here that
a TIME reporter has met Al-Faruq, that he is in CIA custody at such and
such place and this is what he said. There is not even a clean photo of
Al-Faruq; not even one provided by the CIA.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION: WHY ARE TIME AND THE CIA DISTRIBUTING THIS INFORMATION? Is
there any resemblance between Ramzi al-Shibh's photo after his alleged
"capture" in
Karachi and his old formal photo published in TIME? The "captured"
"Ramzi's"
chin and nose and lips are visible. Compare the two. These are two
different people.
So why the stories? The purpose seems to be to assure Americans that
"we are winning the war against the terrorists" and to prepare grounds for
attacks on Indonesian and Pakistani Islamic movements.
------------------------------------------------------------------
AL-JAZEERA'S ROLE: New Trend has received a report from Br. Alam in
U.K, that
yesterday, Sept.20, Al-Jazeerah aired an EXTENSIVE and DETAILED message
of the renegade Qadiani ('Ahmeddi') group. Pakistanis know this group and
have denounced them as non-Muslim and anti-Jihad and pro-Imperialist. Why
did Al-Jazeera do this? One good reason: Few Arabic speaking people know of
the Qadianis and could easily be misled because the Qadiyyanis do not, in
their
initial statements, advocate their leader as the Messiah or a prophet.
It is done at stage two or three.
Al-Jazeera, after having won the confidence of many viewers, seems to be
involved in some disinformation. Dr. Haque, from Pakistan, has repeatedly
informed his readers that the video tapes of Osama distributed by
Al-Jazeera
seems to have been doctored. The picture of Osama in the video, Dr. Haque
noted, is different from the original pictures of Osama.
There is also some news that Al-Jazeera was involved in getting some
Islamic refugees in Karachi, Pakistan arrested in some kind of
collusion with
the FBI which allegedly traced the interview. Perhaps al-Jazeera will
clear up these serious allegations.
---------------------------------------------------------------
3. MUSHARREF has ABROGATED RULE OF LAW FOR ISLAMIC REFUGEES. Observers in
Pakistan say that the military coup leader has put an end to all
pretensions
of rule of law for Islamic activists, particularly for those from other
countries. Islamic refugees are steadily being arrested and handed over
to the FBI for quick transfer to U.S. prison facilities in Afghanistan and
Cuba.
People arrested are seldom identified. No Pakistani legal coverage is
given to them. They are arrested and handed over to the U.S.
AFTER THE TRANSFER, THEY DISAPPEAR INTO THE AMERICAN GULAG.
Musharref is doing this for big dollars and massive inflow of equipment
for his personal security police. He plans to stay in power with America's
help.
THE PAKISTANI PEOPLE are PEACEFULLY PROTESTING THE VIOLATIONS OF THE
RIGHTS OF ISLAMIC REFUGEES. There have been hundreds of small
demonstrations
up and down the country protesting the arrests. In speeches by Islamic
leaders, the U.S.-Musharref collusion has been condemned. There is NO
RESPONSE from the government to peaceful protests.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Last week, a public gathering in Karachi, organized by Jamaate Islami and
addressed by Syed Munawwar Hasan, Secretary General of JI, was attacked
by a band of gangsters from MQM, an ethnically oriented group entrenched in
parts of Karachi. After the initially successful disruption, the gangsters
were surrounded by the public, given a thorough drubbing and driven away.
It's not clear whether this was a government-sponsored attack or an MQM
attempt to assess the strength and organization of Jamaate Islami, a
peaceful, election-oriented movement.

Whenever you are away and stay in decent hotels, motels, or resorts,
every day
you find your beds made with fresh sheets, you are supplied with fresh
towels,
and your room has been cleaned. As a result you enjoy your stay at the
hotel.
Do you ever think about the person who made it all possible? The
housekeeping
staff does not receive decent wage to meet their basic human needs for
food, shelter,medical care, and safety and security of their families.
When you go
out for a nice evening and have a nice dinner at a decent restaurant.
You enjoy the food and the service. There are many people behind the scene
who made it possible. They are the bus boys, kitchen help, vegetable
pickers, loaders, and their families. Their families can barely
survive on their
income. The 5 Star hotelsand fancy restaurants that you enjoy so much
are located in the high rent districts. Those who make it possible for
them to
earn a 5-Stars rating ca'nt even afford to live even in a depressed area
with their wages. They are forced to live many families in a small
apartment or in a run down house.
