Understanding Why Muslim Immigrant groups
in USA became supporters of the White House and the Pentagon
and did not oppose Israel.
by Dr. Kaukab Siddique
Immigrants started setting up million dollar mosques.
These Muslims behaved as if they had achieved Madina. These
expensive mosaque were funded by the richest among the
immigrants. These rich people did not want to oppose the
government in anything
These million dollar mosques also required some funding
and support from state and federal government. The US
government became deeply involved. ISNA which had high
support in these mosques pandered to the White House.
Several ISNA conventions were directly supporfted by gthe
White House. Others were indirectly supported.
An American president actually spoke at a mosque in
Baltimore and got a huge welcome.
The mosques gradually went into lockstep with the White
House and the Pentagon. US bombing and occupation of Iraq,
Syria, Afghanistan and Libya was not opposed by the
mosques.
The same thing happened with Somalia and the Nigerian
slaughter of prisoners in the north of the country which
sparked the rebellion and insurrection which is
continuing..
A result of this blank check given to the White House by
the mosques resulted in a situation where the government did
not care what the Muslims would think of its actions. In
some cases, like that of a mosque in northern Virginia, the
government could not believe that Muslims would not be
consulting each other to oppose attacks on Muslim countries.
The result was a government raid which uncovered the fact
that the immigrants were staunch allies of the regime. All
the computers were returned and there were even muffled
apologies.
Immigrant mosques, with few exceptions, considered Black
communities and African American Muslims, just as White
people did. As a result mosques in America are largely
either all Black or all immigrant [with a mixture of rich
immigrants from Africa].
Minister Farrakhan tried on two major occasions to join
the Muslim orthodox community. He was treated as an outsider
by the immigrants. The US major media do not allow
Farrakhan to speak and again the immigrant mosques neither
invited him nor supported him though American politicians,
Democrat and Republican are often invited to speak in the
mosques.
At the micro level, many major immigrant mosques simply
wait and watch to see which way the American power structure
is bending. So there is no question of opposition to Israel.
All the tyrants and kings in the Muslim world have the
support of most immigrant mosques. Extreme tyranny in Egypt,
Jordan, Syria and Saudi Arabia does not lead to any protests
from the Muslim immigrant mosques.
At an even more micro level, the mosques refused to speak
against LGBTG. Gradually Islam's basic texts are being
eroded. For instance, the word Jihad, in the senxse of armed
resistance, has become taboo, One ISNA person claimed that
jihad means getting up for fajr prayers.
Strangely.enough hijab is very popular in the Muslim
immigrant mosques and groups. There is much good in it but
the mosque scholars do not tell their audiences that verses
about were hijab were revealed after the Islamic state was
established in Madina. It was not ordained in the Makka
period nor in the early years of Madina and had to do with
the wars Muslims had to fight against overwhelming opposing
forces where identity was essential.
So we have this situation that immigrant Muslim women
visiting the White House and the Pentagon wear head
coverings and are not seen as opponents of the regime.
Alhamdulillah many mosques run by African Americans [Black
people] , Sunni mosques, now available across the country,
as well as the Hispanic [latin] mosques, do not suffer from
most of these immigrant problems.
Pakistan
Three serious incidents this week in Pakistan:
Gwadar port: Large crowds took over the city. Led by a
Jamate Islami leader, the crowds demanded the closing down
of liquor stores, the end of poaching by large fishing
trawlers and the extension of civic facilities to the local
population. The police was unable to drive out the crowds
[too many people]. Finally the regime collapsed and accepted
the demands in toto.
However a large security force, about 5000 men, have been
rushed to Gwadur.
There are reports that the liquor related corruption was
created by the Chinese who have invested large amounts. So
the protests became anti-Chinese.
A Sri lankan manager in the strategic city of Sialkot
allegedly insulted the Prophet, pbuh. Crowds came out,
grabbed him, killed him and allegedly burned his body. All
the secularists, from Prime Minister Imran to the
politicians, have condemned the killing before any
investigation of the blasphemy. Daily Dawn and other
secularists have declared the blasphemer totally innocent
and have not condemned the blasphemy.
New Trend observes that regime does not punish blasphemy,
allowing foreigners to erode Islamic values. Hence the
public is taking things into its hands. The man seems to be
Hindu by name but Dawn declared he was Christian. If
Blasphemy is not punished there could be a peoples
uprising.
At a leading university in Lahore, students, secular and
Islamic, clashed when a secular group tried to publicize a
"cultural show', involving music and dancing. Islamic
students objected. The clash took on large proportions and
in the process the building and adjoining structures were
damaged. People on both sides were injured. The
administration sided with the seculars.
New Trend sees this as another attempt to secularize the
education centers, successfully resisted by Islamic
students.

Uyghurs
Genocide - Suffering in silence of Kashmiris, and Uighurs
Muslims.
The Muslim world should break the silence to stop genocide
in Kashmir and Xinjiang, China
Mohammed Khaku
It is one extreme, Michael Flynn calls for "One Nation under
God, and one religion under God" - Christianity".
Yet another extreme communist regime of China's President Xi
Jinping arbitrarily decides to conduct mass incarceration of
over million Uighur Muslims with force labor, under
surveillance, and forced sterilization.
And India's fascist Hindu Prime Minister Narendra Modi's
revoke's Article 370 of the Indian constitution and
authorizes Indian army to commit genocide, and ethnic
cleansing of nine million Kashmiri Muslims.
What is happening to Muslims around the globe?
In China Muslims are put into concentration camps, in
Myanmar they are slaughtered, in Kashmir they are rape, in
Palestine, Israel conducts ethnic cleansing and in Yemen,
Saudi slaughter by indiscriminate bombing.
Muslims in India, Kashmir and Xinyang have many parallels,
all three communities are facing genocide by the India and
China.
Why Muslim Silence?
If any country speaks, it will be struck with sanctions or
boycott and if in Saudi Arabia if you dare raise your voice
you will be chopped into pieces.
Yes, western powers are responsible for aiding, abetting and
arming these Arab kings and dictators.
What a hypocrisy! The Muslim leaders, politicians, and
communities around the globe stand silent.
Why?
All because of political and economic power of China, India
and the Bedouin Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The anti-Uighur and Kashmir campaign is framed in the
western language of anti-terrorism and deradicalization.
The government crackdown on Uighurs and Kashmir's is based
on a premise that law and order can be restored by
eradicating Muslims as enemies of the government.
These words ring ears not only to the western government but
also to the Muslim authoritarians and despot rulers who have
sympathy for China and India.
Why is the rest of the world turning a blind eye to the
suffering of the Muslims in Kashmiri, and China?
Why haven't the 50 plus Muslim-majority countries been
equally vocal on the situation in Xinjiang, and Kashmir?
Money!
Both China and India are economic powerhouse with largest
populations using the same playbook of Zionist to commit
brutal oppression on their religious minorities.
What a shame that Muslim and Arab countries are too
powerless to stop them nor detest to rebuke them!
The Muslim world looks on as China and India persecutes Its
Muslims population. While quick to condemn and criticize
Iran, but hesitate to denounce China and India
Since the beginning of the pandemic no actions (BDS) have
been taken to stop the atrocities in India or China but all
kinds of actions are taken, even the threat of war against
Iran.
The Iran phobia rectal parasite is residing in the "arses"
of US/UK/Israel/Saudi Arabia. Iran should develop its
strategic nuclear deterrence as well as the intercontinental
ballistic missiles (ICBM) as a deterrence.
For Chinese, Uighurs' Muslim religion is a cancer, while for
Modi Muslims are termites.
There is global parallel to what happening in Xinjiang and
Kashmir, it is the rise of nationalism, and Hindutva. Which
is the right-wing fascist organization.
The Modi regime has taken a leaf out of the Zionist
occupiers' playbook in Occupied Palestine of forcible
evictions and occupation of the Kashmiris' lands.
Like the Zionists, the Hindu occupiers have taken over land
by simply declaring it a sensitive security zone. Its
illegal acts are patterned on the Zionist Israel and
Hitler
They have already taken over strategic mountain tops and
fertile valleys declaring them militarily sensitive
areas.
What is the responsibility of Muslims leaders, and Islamic
scholars?
What should we do with these people who openly side with
evil and injustice?
Speak Up! Silent No More!
But we, Muslims are engrossed in discussing petty issues on
social media like folding hands or not. Perhaps discussion
like these will get us into Paradise.
Adding insult to oppression against the Muslims in India and
Kashmir the Arab rulers have sided with India with billions
of dollar investment.
What an irony! Bedouin kingdom's gives India's fascist
Narendra Modi the highest civilian honor.
These filthy rich gulf states of Saudi Arabia, The United
Arab Emirates, and Qatar have maintained a criminal silence
on these matters.
They are busy spending billions of dollars in purchasing
armaments from the United States, Israel, and Europeans to
bomb Yemen.
They are shamelessly facilitating the establishment of
military bases in their respective countries so that their
western patrons can bring bloodshed and destruction on to
the Islamic Republic of Iran.
The so-called Arab world has, indeed, chosen to sell its
soul for materialistic gains to these colonist world powers
and animus towards Islamic Republic of Iran.
The Saudi regime and the Arab world have shown their true
colors. That it does not care for suffering Muslims anywhere
around the globe. They and the Zionist Israel care for
regime change in Iran for last 40 years.
In fact, they have tried to sabotage the efforts of others
to raise the Ummah's voice at the Organization of Islamic
Cooperation (OIC), a body dominated by the Saudis for
Iran-bashing.
Turkey, Iran and Malaysia are the only Muslim countries that
have unequivocally condemned India's annexation of Kashmir
by abrogating its special status and subjecting the 8
million Kashmiris to a cruel lockdown.
Don't these crimes merit attention of the Muslim world,
especially those that have declared themselves Khadim
al-Haramayn?
Road to liberation of Muslim lands and Palestine passes
through Mecca and Medina.
News Within the U.S.
Vaccine Mandate now for Religious & Private Schools
by Sis. Aisha
[Jamaat al-Muslimeen]
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is now issuing a COVID-19
vaccine mandate for private and religious schools. This
mandate will affect over 56,000 employees at 938 private
schools throughout the city. These private school employees
have until December 20th to show proof of having submitted
to at least one shot of the vaccine.
The chairman of the Committee of NYC Religious and
Independent School Officials, Rabbi David Zweibel, wrote a
letter to the mayor opposing the mandate. Rabbi Zweibel
stated that the government should be using its "bully
pulpit" to persuade people, not its "regulatory arm" to
coerce them to get the vaccine.
In Borough Park and South Williamsburg Brooklyn, Orthodox
Jewish enclaves, 51%, and 60% are vaccinated, respectively.
And, these are only for the one-dose rates. New York
Assemblyman Richard Gottfried voiced his support for the
mayor's mandate for private schools. Gottfried also heads a
health committee. He stated that the mandate has increased
vaccinations.
Recently, a federal appeals court ruled in favor of
education staffers who were previously denied religious
exemption for avoiding the COVID-19 vaccine. Now, they can
reapply for religious exemption.
The mandate goal seems to be to get more people vaccinated
without considering whether or not these vaccinations will
decrease the rate of COVID-19 infections. In fact, the high
rate of vaccinations does not seem to be lowering the rate
of COVID-19 infections. The relaxation of any restrictions
is purely based on how many people are vaccinated and not
any decrease of COVID-19 infections. It is now estimated
that 77% of New Yorkers are vaccinated.
According to The Lancet, a reputable medical journal, a
COVID-19 infection case involving 16 healthcare workers, 23
exposed patients, and two family members, in Israel, was
traced back to a fully vaccinated COVID-19 patient. The
Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) has
designated four out of five counties with the highest
vaccination rates in America as high COVID-19 transmission
counties.
The reason why COVID-19 infections have actually increased,
in spite of a large number of vaccinations, is because the
fully vaccinated are just as culpable in the transmissions
of COVID-19 as are the unvaccinated. However,
decision-makers have been excluding vaccinated people as
sources for COVID-19 transmission, which is negligent and
harmful.

When will Imam Jamil and Aafia Siddiqui be released?
[Thanks to Mauri Saalakhan and Nadrat Siddique.]
To: US Bureau of Prisons and President Joe Biden
Free Dr. Mutulu Shakur
[More than 55,000 signatures.]
We strongly support immediate compassionate release for Dr.
Mutulu Shakur. We are confident that his release poses no
danger to our communities, and we urge you to allow him to
rejoin his family and friends.
Why is this important?
Dr. Shakur is recognized as a leading member of the movement
for human rights for African Americans. He has spent over
three decades behind bars because of his political beliefs
and the actions motivated by those beliefs. He is also
recognized as a Doctor of Acupuncture who pioneered the use
of acupuncture for drug addiction. Acupuncturists all over
the United States and Canada are still utilizing his work to
this day.
Mutulu's convictions come out of a complex and turbulent
moment in American history, when civil unrest fractured our
country into pieces. They arise from his commitment to the
social justice movement for Black liberation, originating in
the 1960's. He was targeted and victimized by the FBI's
now-infamous Counter- Intelligence Program (COINTELPRO) as
early as 1968. He was convicted of RICO conspiracy and
connection to the 1981 Brinks Robbery, and the earlier
prison escape of Assata Shakur. Dr. Shakur has taken full
responsibility for his life and his actions.
Dr. Shakur has received a diagnosis of life-threatening
advanced bone marrow cancer. He had already been diagnosed
with type 2 diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and
glaucoma. In 2013, he suffered from a stroke that required
several months for recovery. In 2019 he experienced
increasing pain; after months of medical neglect, advanced
bone marrow cancer was diagnosed. Now Mutulu is suffering
from extensive painful bone lesions, caused by the growth of
the bone marrow cancer in parts of his spine, ribs and
pelvis. The cancer has also destroyed a large area of bone
around his right 7th rib, replacing bone with cancer cells,
creating a propensity to break. Dr. Shakur is 71 years old,
and aging in prison after 35 years of incarceration. He
needs treatment and recovery in humane conditions
immediately. We fear for his survival and his life.

Horrible Decision in India.
Sexual Assault on Child is not Serious?
Just days after India's Supreme Court struck down a
controversial order that cleared a man of sexual assault of
a 12-year-old girl because "there was no skin-to-skin
contact" with the victim, another judgement that reduced the
jail term of a man convicted of forcing a 10-year-old boy to
perform oral sex on him has caused outrage.
The order, which preceded the landmark Supreme Court ruling
by a day but has only now been reported, was pronounced by
the Allahabad high court in the northern state of Uttar
Pradesh.
The crime dates back to 2016 when the man had visited the
child's home and taken him to a local temple where he had
sexually abused him. He had given the child 20 rupees (27
cents; 20 pence) to keep quiet about the assault and
threatened him with consequences if he reported it.
A trial court in August 2018 found the man guilty of
"aggravated penetrative sexual assault" under the stringent
Pocso (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences) Act and
handed him a 10-year jail sentence.
The man appealed and last week, the high court judge reduced
his jail term to seven years, saying that under the law, the
assault was not "aggravated" - implying that the crime was
less serious than the trial court had deemed it to be.
Legal experts have questioned the judgment, saying there are
several factors in Pocso Act that make an assault
"aggravated", one of which is if the victim is under 12.
Opinion
Babri Masjid must be restored.
Fake religion Demolished it.
[Via New Trend]
We commemorate the anniversary of Babri Masjid demolition on
December 6th.No post-independence event so much transformed
the psyche of the Indian people or escalated communal
fervour at such a scale. The demolition took saffron
communalism to magnitude unprecedented and Hindutva to a new
height. It polarised fascism from bourgeois democracy, and
exposed how in essence India was not secular. Even if
formally secular Babri Masjid had its breeding ground in the
pro-Hindu policies of the Congress itself with it's genesis
from days of independence or Gandhian Congress. The tempo
was built up for a sustained period after Rajiv Gandhi
opened the doors of the Masjid in 1986. The 2019 judgement
reflected how Hindutva fascsim has penetrated the judicial
system, with the criminals being exonerated and permission
been granted to build a temple.
The secular fabric of the Constitution has been ripped
apart.On December 22nd 1949 idols of Ram and Sita, 2 Hindu
mythological gods in India's history were placed on the site
under the inspiration of Vallabhai Patel. This was the
source of the Post-Independence Communal Tension that
occurred. Hindu Fanatics claimed that the idols had spring
from the earth while Muslims protested.The Vishwa Hindu
Parishad claimed that the site had been Lord Rama's
birthplace: Vikram Aditya had built a temple to Rama at the
site.They claimed that Babar (the First ever Moghul emperor
who ruled in 1528) later destroyed the temple to create the
Mosque. There is little historical evidence to back this
claim. However one thing we are certain that in 1949 what
without doubt existed was a mosque. 4 centuries ago
Ramayana(Hindu Mythological epic) historian Tulsidas made no
mention of a temple being destroyed .It is most likely he
would have written about it in the record books if it was a
historic fact.10,000 years ago no history was recorded, so
there is no evidence that Ram was born in the temple.
