First 
Israeli 
Retreat
June 29, one PM Eastern Standard Time. 
First news came that Israeli 
tanks are withdrawing from northern Gaza. The 
Israeli retreat means that the 
Zionist 
Jews 
have failed to crush the Islamic 
resistance and now retreating to 
create the impression that they want peace.
Both President 
Bush 
and his terrorist 
friend Sharon were vociferously 
saying that Hamas must be dismantled before any 
cease fire. It didn't work. 
It's very obvious that the real forces in the 
field are Hamas, Islamic 
Jihad 
and 
Al-Aqsa 
Martyrs Brigade. Abbas ('Abu Mazen') is 
merely an American asset.
The Islamic fighters can use the coming 
cease fire to regroup. The 
Zionist Jews had destroyed the economy of 
Palestine and turned the entire country 
into a concentration camp.
[There was a quick change of terminology on 
MSNBC 
TV from "Palestinian 
terrorists" to "Islamic militants." The day is 
not far when the Islamists will be 
known for what they are: liberators.]

The following is a comment to Nick Maheras of 
zwire.com 
from Imam Badi Ali, 
North Carolina Islamic leader, originally from 
Palestine:
Badi Ali, a native Palestinian and imam of the 
Islamic Center of the Triad in 
Greensboro, shows no sign of relenting in his 
opposition to peace with Israel.
"I don't think that the truce will hold," he 
said. "I'm calling on the 
Palestinian Authority to unite with the Islamic 
movement to support the intefadeh.
"Negotiations with the Israelis should stop 
immediately. Such negotiations 
are merely a giant step backward in the long 
journey toward liberating 
Palestine."
The intefadeh, already about 3 years old, is an 
uprising by Palestinians in territories occupied by Israel in 
the 1967 Arab-Israeli war.
Ali said he has no expectation that the Israelis 
will return any of those 
occupied territories through peaceful means.
"The only practical way to liberate Palestine is 
through continuous struggle 
against a powerful 
racist 
enemy with an 
expansionist ideology," Ali said.
"Liberating Palestine can only be accomplished 
through the efforts and 
resources of the whole Muslim nation, and the 
Muslims of Palestine should be at the 
forefront of this effort."
