NEWS BREAK: SUDAN RED ALERT:
(From Sis. Ashira Na'im): Missionary and Zionist groups have launched an all out campaign against Sudan. Johnny Cochrane was on ABC this morning urging Bush to intervene in Sudan to help 'Christians.' The 'slavery in Sudan' story is reaching a dangerous level of propaganda aimed at breaking Sudan in two. We urge Imam W.D. Muhammad and Minister Farrakhan to speak out so that a new crusade is not launched against Sudan. Please join Jamaat al-Muslimeen's Sudan Committee to help educate the community. Email: ash era22@aol.com
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------
A front-page article on Sudan written by Dr. Siddique will be published tomorrow, inshallah, in New York's MUSLIMS USA newspaper. The article will also be made available on line. We need help for maximum distribution.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------
WHY ARE MUSLIMS, IMMIGRANT AND INDIGENOUS, NOT UNITED? WHAT ARE THE ISSUES?
HOW TO DEAL WITH THE AMERICAN "JUSTICE" SYSTEM?
PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY: DECENTRALIZATION AND HEREAFTER QUR'AN AND HADITH AS BOOKS OF SOCIO-POLITICAL/SPIRITUAL REVOLUTION.
These topics and more will be discussed, inshallah.
