German Schools Embrace Islam
 
In an odd form of social suicide, rather than increasing efforts to integrate Muslims into German society, German students will be taught about Islam. In a sense, German educators will be engaged in proselytizing for Islam.

The German state of Lower Saxony will start including Islam in its schools' core curriculum as part of an initiative to counter growing anti-Islam sentiment in Europe. Dr. Bernad Althusmann, Minister of Education in Lower Saxony announced that schools there will start including Islamic education in their main curriculum, saying, during a visit to an elementary school in the city of Hanover which offers an Islamic education class, "I think we will be able to start implementation by the academic year after the next," said Justifying this approach, Juergen Zoeliner, Berlin Minister for Education, Science and Research, notes, "For years, society and schools have been faced with a variety of new duties and challenges. One of these big challenges is to have people from different traditions, cultural and religion affiliations living together peacefully and respectfully." .


One might assume that Muslims in the West should come to know and appreciate Western Civilization. Students who are not versed in the history and customs of the polity they find themselves in will be handicapped. Yet integration -- once the overarching strategy for dealing with immigrants -- has been replaced in Germany, and throughout Western Europe, by efforts to bend over backwards to accommodate the Islamic population. In the process, this effort produces results that counter good intentions. First, the Islamic population believes, with considerable confirmation, that Europeans do not possess the will to assert the importance of their own culture and traditions. Second, the insertion of Islam into German schools suggests tacitly that Islam is on the rise and cannot be denied even in non-Islamic nations

"Diversity education" is predicated on the belief that we in the West have on obligation to understand Islam -- however, the converse does not follow.

Of course, whether the program ultimately leads to a peaceful result is questionable. Why did the armies of Europe turn back the Turks at the gates of Vienna 500 years ago when programs, like these instituted in Germany, are handing Islam the keys to the future?

Although German shame over Nazi atrocities has made Hitler's heritage the end of German history and identity, should this shame be replaced by preemptive capitulation to a religion with a relentless imperial impulse?

To be sure, the Salafists, with Saudi funding, will follow up on their efforts in the schools. But will the full story of Islam be told including the stoning of adulterers, the execution of homosexuals, polygamy, apostasy as a capital offense and the belief that Jews are the offspring of apes and pigs?
Preemptive capitulation is nothing more than a form of defeat, and Islamic leaders recognize it in this way. The aggressive stance taken by Islamic leaders in Europe is based to an extraordinary degree on the flexibility and weakness of those who could defend the West.

G.K. Chesterton once noted that "an open mind, like an open mouth, should close on something." 

As I see it, that something should be the traditions of the West, the Judeo-Christian principles that gave birth to our civilization. If people want to live in this civilization, that is what they should be obliged to learn.

Dr. Musahid Ahmed: A scientist from Assam bagging honors in US

By Anjuman Ara Begum,

Dr. Musahid Ahmed is a scientist hailing from Assam and is presently working as a senior scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, California, USA. Recently he has been elected as a fellow to the American Physical Society for his outstanding contribution to Physics.

Dr. Ahmed is in USA since 1995 and his research encompasses fundamental studies which are relevant to energy and environmental processes. With his research Dr. Ahmed achieved accolades in USA. “I never dreamt to be a scientist, but since my childhood I was curious in nature. I would ask hundreds of questions to my parents about why things break and how things are fixed,” recollects Dr. Musahid Ahmed who believes that he is an experimental scientist and for last five years he has been enjoying the privilege of doing what interests him.



Dr. Musahid Ahmed

Born in Assam’s Digboi city that is famous for oil refinery, Dr. Amed spent his childhood in the towns like Duliajan, Nahorkatiya and Moran of Assam. He did his schooling in Scindia school in Gwalior. Later he obtained his bachelor’s degree in Chemistry from Delhi University in the year 1985 and the same year he joined for Ph.D. programme in Cambridge University in UK and obtained Ph.D. in 1989. He completed his post doctoral degree from University of Leicester and Manchester in UK and Max Planck Institute in Gottingen, Germany.

Dr. Ahmed is a hardworking scientist who works about 100 hours a week. He believes that nothing comes easily. “A scientist needs perseverance and the ability to accept both failure and success. The job of a scientist is not like that of a doctor or engineer,” said Dr. Ahmed.

Dr. Ahmed is also member of American Chemical Society, American Physical Society and American Association of Advancement of Science and in 2010 he has been elected as fellow to the American Physical Society. His citation which appeared in his fellowship certificate reads: “for his creation of a world class synchrotron chemical dynamics facility serving the community and his unique marriage of lasers with synchrotron science, used to study small molecules spectroscopy and energetic, biological imaging, combustion, nanoparticle reactivity and chemical dynamics.” His fellowship citation will be published in the March 2011 issue of APC News.

Dr. Ahmed believes that Northeast India has already a traditional knowledge system and more systematic research is required. Assam has lots of potentials in natural resources. He suggested: “Research should be critical and analytical and must process information aiming at fundamental research. Research and education system need to be professional and lots of hard work and dedication is must for success in scientific research.” He wished that Guwahati IIT can play a role in the upliftment of research quality in Assam and northeastern states.

'Direct At Home' Donations: Konkan shows way to eradicate poverty

 

DTH, Direct To Home, is the courier service most of us are familiar with. However, Muslims of Mahad in Konkan region of coastal Maharashtra have come out with a novel way to eradicate poverty and help the poor. Beginning December 1998, an NGO in Mahad worked out the 'Direct At Home' donation system, which is so successful that it is feeding thousands of widows and poor families in the region today.


The system is brought to the limelight by Mumbai based columnist Shameem Tarique. According to him, Anjuman Dard Mandane Taleem o Taraqqui, in December 1998 devised a system wherein small boxes, with virtues and importance of charity quoted from the Holy Quran written over them, were distributed to the willing homes in the region. The family members were then advised to drop at least a rupee every day as charity in these boxes.


"Owing to the sincerity and devotion with which the members of the Anjuman pushed the system, 14000 boxes were distributed and placed in different chowks and homes. By March 2009, the NGO collected more than half a million rupees from these boxes and distributed to 1977 widows and poor families", Shameem Tarique wrote in one of his recent articles.


The system soon received popularity and by December 2010, the number of boxes increased to 14500 whereas the collection rose to a whopping Rs. 9,08,400. With this amount, the NGO is feeding 23,350 families in the region.


Interestingly, after Shameem Tariqu's article appeared in a leading Urdu daily, it transpired that the Konkan Anjuman is not alone in using this system to collect donations. Others at places like Aurangabad are also using it though the money thus collected is being used to maintain the mosques.


"We came to know about this system few years ago and adopted it immediately to collect money to run the masjid in our area", says Abdul Qadir, who is one of the trustees of a mosque in Aurangabad.


Most of the Muslim institutions including Masajid (plural of Masjid) and Madaris (plural of Madrasa) depend totally on donations and charities. Sometimes, people, who wish to donate small amounts are reluctant and  become shy. The system has shown the trustees of Muslim institutions a way to bring such people in the fold and provide them an opportunity so that they too get engaged in charity work.


"It is really a good idea and we would also like to introduce it", Dr Saeed Faizee, who runs a chain of Masajid in Malegaon and other parts of Maharashtra, says while speaking to ummid.com.

Minorities in India

Kazi Vakil Ahmed

amtecfoundationbeed@...

After India’s freedom in 1947, the question of reshuffling the states was before the national leaders. And ultimately the states all over India were reorganized on the basis of language widely spoken in that particular area, for example in Maharashtra people speaking Marathi have out numbered the other languages speakers. Therefore, this state came into existence as state of Maharashtra on 1-11-1956, like wise some other states witnessed formation of states on the basis of regional languages. So the criterion of forming a new state was language. The criterion of reorganization of states automatically upheld two separate and distinct unequal groups of people in the state, one majority and another minority. The question of inequality arose.

Our national leaders, the chairman and the members of draft Constitution Council, had predicted that majority would never allow minorities to enjoy equal rights even in the face of Articles, 14, 15 and 16, which guarantee right of equality, against discrimination and equal opportunities. The Constitution draft council in its various sessions in succession wanted to constitute Article 30(1) to ensure protection of rights of equality and equal opportunity in the field of Education. The young generation must be thankful to Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, and other Hon’ble members of ‘Then draft Constitution Council’ who, honestly with good conscience, favoured the insertion of Article 30(1). Our national leaders have honestly done well, and adjudicated the justice, certainly they did justice by inserting Article 30(1), despite lots of impediments, hindrances and obstacles, discussions and debates in the parliament.

What it stands in the Constitution for? The decision to include was absolute, but it remained stagnant with no implementation. Those way who opposed the inclusion of Article 30(1) have succeeded. To know what the opponents gained and what the Muslim minorities have lost, please find the computerised report by Mr. Samu of Human resource Documentation Centre of Indian Social Institute Lodi Road, New Delhi 110,000 under heading ‘Need for awareness of legal rights among Muslims stressed’.

It is unfortunate that Muslims in the country unlike the Christians community are ignorant of their legal rights. While addressing an audience of representatives of different Minority institutions PSMO College Trurangdi, Justice Siddiqui stressed the need of educating children at school and college level and creating awareness of their legal rights. What Jutice Siddiqui is deeply lamenting for is the same what the minority lost during 63 years of freedom. In this long span of time of almost 3/4th century entire Muslim community turned into illiterate and ignorant, economically paupers and beggars, This was a well planned conspiracy against us.

Muslim minority was away from the educational field during this vast span of time of 63 years of Independent India or held away deliberately to trample down their political ability. Now look what Article 30 clause (1) of constitution reads? Article 30 (1) All minorities, whether based on religion or language, shall have a right to establish and administer educational institution of their choice. If one studies in deep and comprehends why this Article 30 clause (1) springs up and jostles to prefer in the crowd of problems and other available Articles of Constitution where educational rights have been guaranteed in general in other Articles also. Article 19(1)(g) and Articles 19(1)(g) & 26 (a) come in to play when educational rights happened to come under consideration of authorities empowered. Studies make it clear that right of education has specially been conferred and safeguarded to ensure equalities and equal opportunities to minorities. Our national leaders made strenuous efforts to ensure the rights and grant them judiciously. Let us therefore resolve to keep our children at schools and colleges to make them educated citizens of India being conscious of claim of rights subject to performing certain duties.

“Greatness of the Quran & Hadees Conference” held In Chennai

By V.M. Khaleelur Rahman, for TwoCircles.net,

Chennai: The Jamiat Ahle Hadees Hind (Tamil Nadu & Pondicherry) organized a one-day Azmat-e-Quran wa Hadees - “Greatness of the Quran & Hadees - Conference at the Begum Shafia Hospital Campus, Perambur, Chennai on 30th January 2011. It was a well attended conference.

Among the prominent Ulema who addressed on the occasion were Maulana Asghar Ali, Gen. Secretary, Jamiat Ahle Hadees, Delhi, Maulana Abdullah Hyderabadi, Umari Madani, President, Jamiat Ahle Hadees, Tamil Nadu & Pondicherry, Maulana Mohammed Muqeem Faizee, Maulana Hafiz Hafeezur Rahman Azami Umari, Madani, Maulana Khaleelur Rahman Azami Umari, Shaikh Ismail Salafi, Shaikh Aneesur Rahman Azmi Umari, Madani and others. They all stressed the need for unity and following of the teachings of Islam strictly in accordance with the letter and spirit of the holy Quran and Ahaadees and criticized “taqleed” – blind following of any version of the human beings - and approaching the dead thinking that they will solve our problems.

Tamil Nadu Muslim Munnetra Kazhagam President Prof. Jawahirullah also addressed the Conference on the contribution of Muslims in the freedom struggle of the country and nation building. He also narrated the historical facts about the sufferings of the Ulema at the hands of the British facing torture and gallows which are well documented in the history.



The participation and address of Prof. Abdullah (Periyar dasan), a former atheist who embraced Islam some time ago, was an added attraction to the Conference. He spoke on the given subject of why he embraced Islam. He kept the audience spell bound by his witty and thought provoking oratory in English and Tamil. He said in his own inimitable way that actually he started reading the holy Quran and Ahaadees with a view to critically analyse them but after studying them for about two and a half years with all care and attention he realised that there is one supreme power Allah and Islam is the solution for all ills of the society. He said that he has given up many evils including his addiction to alcohol. He made it clear that no person, no money, no ambition was involved in his accepting the faith of Islam. Even the Islamic books including the Quran were bought by him. He did not want to have anything at free of cost. He had studied other religions previously.

He also said that the Islamic concept of tawheed – oneness of God – and Prophet Mohammed (sal-am) being the last and final Messenger of God and the entire humanity being just one from Adam and Hawwa giving no importance to any caste, creed, colour, country or any such thing impressed him very much. There were frequent slogans of Allahu Akbar and Alhamdulillah. He appealed to the people to follow Islam strictly in letter and spirit and spread its message to all the people.

The Jamiat honoured some Jamiat teachers by certificates and cash prizes.

At the end of the meeting the Jamiat came out with a Message of the Conference which was presented by Janab Imran Husain who contributed much for the excellent conduct and success of this Conference in the campus of the hospital owned by him.

1. All the mankind is from one father Adam (alaihis salaam) and one mother Hawwa (Alaihas salaam). It’s time for us to abolish the differences between us and lead a peaceful life.

2. Allah (May He be Glorified and Exalted) is only One who has the right to be worshipped. Even the smallest of creatures shows that Allah is the only rightful owner of this world. In fact it is obligatory upon us to worship Him alone to seek help from Him alone and obey His commands.

3. Allah has not created this world without any purpose. Allah made this world as an examination hall to test which one of us is best in deeds. The judgment day will be the day on which every human being will have to account for his deeds.

4. Allah sent His Prophets to each and every Nation and Tribe. Allah sent Prophet Muhammed (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) as a final Messenger to the entire world as a mercy to whole of humanity. It is duty of every human being on this earth to accept Muhammed (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) as the final Messenger of Allah and follow him and also make him as an one’s role model in day to day life.

5. Allah is the Creator and Owner of all the worlds. Allah revealed His final book the Glorious Quran for the guidance of whole humanity, of which each and every letter has been preserved intact.

6. This Conference invites all the Muslims to fulfill the duties towards Quran by reading, memorizing, teaching and concentrating on the verses of the Quran. One should also practice and invite people towards the teaching of the Quran and should make these things their objectives.

7. Allah has made His final Messenger as role model for the whole Muslim ummah and Allah declares that each and every saying of the Prophet as revelation (wahy). And Allah sent His Messenger to explain the meaning of the Quran and to set an example by acting upon it. After all who can understand better than the Messenger of Allah? Allah made his every action as a religion and his judgment as law. And the Muslim ummah has to accept the judgment of Messenger of Allah whole heartedly.

8. Allah preserved each and every saying and actions of his messenger till the Day of Judgment which is known as Sunnah or Hadees of the Prophet.

9. As the Quran and Hadees, both are revelation from Allah, it is impossible that there is a conflict between the two. It is the wrong sighting of some people that they claim that the Quran and Hadees contradict each other. How poor is their judgment that they say that Allah has contradicted Himself in two revelations, the essence of both are from Allah Himself. We seek Allah’s protection.

10. Allah selected companions of the Prophet to understand and practice Quran, Hadees and religion of Islam. Allah and His Messenger gave certification on their clear understanding of Islam. Allah has promised Paradise to each and every companion of the Prophet in the hereafter.

11. Allah commanded the people after the Companions of the Prophet to believe, understand and practice the religion of Islam as the Companions believed, understood and practiced.

12. Companions of the Prophet learned Islam from the Final Messenger of Allah and preached Islam to others. Perhaps doubting the faith of the Companions of the Prophet is like refuting the Quran and Hadees which is a great deviation from Islam.

13. It is obligatory upon us to obey the aimma, ulama, Mufasiroon, Muhaddithoon, Fuqahaa, Duaat who were born in the history of Islam and to abstain from their personal mistakes and have good feeling about them in our hearts.

14. Islam united the broken hearts and made enmity into friendship and brotherhood and created oneness under the roof of Lailaha illalla. It is obligatory on the Muslim to abolish the different sects and become a united ummah.

15. The Messenger of Allah Mohammed (sal-am) is the last and final Messenger of Allah and seal of all the Prophets. Anyone who believes that there is a Prophet or Messenger who was sent after Mohammed (sal-am) is under great misguidance. Therefore believing in false messengers such as Ahmed Ghulam Quadiani is a deviation from the religion of Islam and takes a person outside the fold of Islam.

16. India is our Country and Nation. Many of our Muslims have made great sacrifices for the causes of this Nation and collectively participated in the freedom struggle. Hence the Muslims of this country and other Indians should work together to bring about a revolutionary change in the state of this Nation and make it a super power.

Economic Advancement of Indian Muslims

By Abdul Rashid Agwan

Economic development is one of the core themes of Islam. Contrary to the common perception regarding any religion, Islam vigorously guides on several mundane affairs including the economic sphere of human activities. This particularity of Islam could have never been understood well in any era than now.

With the growing realization of inadequacy of vogue theories and practices in dealing with complex economic matters in a globalized world and proven sustainability of some Islamic institutions during critical times, such as the present recession, a variety of Islamic tenets are being revisited by academics, policymakers and executives engaged in economic development of human society for exploring their relevance today. The context of economic principles of Islam also arises in the contemporary world due to rampant impoverishment of Muslims in various parts of the world.

India is no exception. Here too, a paradoxical reference to the ‘Islamic economics’ is being currently made to the Islamic banking and finance on the one hand and on the other to the glaring economic backwardness of Indian Muslims even after six decades of Independence and democratic governance. Some impart blame on Islam that it comes in the way of economic advancement of Muslims whereas others think that the faith could be used as a motivating force for this purpose. Votaries of both the views do exist and they pursue their respective cause in a mutually unconvincing manner. This calls for underscoring a number of issues for a better grasp of the situation and suggesting policy implications on them. There is a cumbersome list of such issues which demands sincere intervention on the apart of both the state and the community. They comprise inter alia, equitable growth, lack of motivation for ‘worldly’ things, lack of information and facilitation structure, training and capacity building, improper management of Islamic institutions such as Zakat and Waqf, Islamic banking and finance, thrift and investment, Muslim participation in various sectors such as agriculture, industries and services, poverty alleviation of Indian Muslims whose majority is drifting around the poverty line, and the like.

The foremost issue of Indian economy is the promotion of ‘inclusive growth’. In the absence of adequate institutional back up for ensuring this, a variety of disparities are not only visible on the economic scene of the country but they are also becoming more and more unreasonable with the passage of time. These disparities do exist between the forward and backward states, between some districts of a state and other districts of the same state, between stronger and weaker communities, between urban and rural people and between the gender counterparts. There can be no denial the fact that India is yet far from having realized economic democratization and equitable distribution of resources. The most affected segment of this untoward situation remains to be both the Dalits and Muslims in all states, in all districts and in all parts of the country. Their persistent economic backwardness during the last six decades has been substantiated beyond doubt by none less than the committee appointed by the Prime Minister of India himself, commonly called as the Sachar Committee, which submitted its eye-opening report in November 2006. Evidently, the promise of inclusive growth seems nowhere near achieving. So, there could hardly be any blame on the conclusion that economically the most insecure class of the Indian nation is its 150 million Muslims; Dalits at least have several constitutional provisions and reservation of government jobs in proportion to their population. And, the irony is that, presumably, the Muslims believe in some of those unblemished tenets, which could guarantee an equitable economic growth anywhere in the world.

The Islamic concept of economic well being was discussed by the speakers of the inaugural session and several others. One of the resolutions of the seminar convened by Islamic Fiqh Academy India two years back reads, “To earn wealth through fair means and to spend it on the welfare of the poor and needy as has been enjoined upon by Allah, is not only permissible but appreciable in Islam”. In his inaugural address of the said seminar the renowned Islamic thinker Dr Mohd. Nijatullah Siddiqui quoted Maulana Sayed Manazir Ahsan Gilani asserting that “endeavor towards the economic development also is a sort of Jihad fi Sabilil Allah” and remarked that if the economic activities are “undertaken with a pious intent, it will demonstrate the noble Islamic values and character with no shades of indolence and insufficient preparations often noticeable in the economic efforts the Muslims take”. These notable views remind us of the campaign Jihad sa Zindagani (struggle for reconstruction) launched by the Iranian people just after the end of eight year long war imposed on their country by Iraq, on the instigation and support of the USA; which enabled the Islamic republic instill a spirit of overall development in its citizens and an urge to come out from the ill effects of this unwished war. Maulana Khalid Saifullah Rahmani a well known scholar of thye country categorizes economic issues under Fiqh Al Hayat, i.e. as the Jurisprudence of Life. This denotes what importance is accorded by Islam to the economic activities of man. From a verse of the holy Qurān (4:5), Dr Khalid Shuaib, a scholar from Kuwait, deduced that wealth and property is meant for ‘support’ (Qayam) to human life and therefore Islam recognizes several economic rights in society. He also mentioned that some companions of the Prophet (Pbuh) have narrated that “if money increases it is a ‘treasure’, provided that its Zakat has been paid”. Maulana Badrul Hasan Qasmi, one of the leading NRI Ulama, quoted an interesting assertion of reverend Ali bin Abdul Muttalib against demeaning ‘this-worldly things’ in these words, “This world is a place of rectitude for one who goes in pursuit of its nature, it will lead to salvation to one who wants to one’s share from this world with dignity and propriety.” The foregoing references make it evident that in the scheme of Islam, economic endeavor is one of the obligatory functions of both individuals and society and enhancement of wealth and material resources, anywhere, would be welcomed provided they fulfill certain basic prerequisites prescribed by Islam; which are actually in the interest of healthy and sound economic growth of a nation.

Then the question arises, if Islam is so much motivating its adherents for economic endeavor, then why Indian Muslims are lagging behind others in this field? There are many factors to blame to; some internal and some external. Internally, Muslims have long been fed on the idea that economic activities are ‘worldly’ things and, therefore, they should be carried out only nominally. Their aversion to economic progress led them ignore modern advancements in technology and economic system and in seeking excellence and ascendance in the economic field. They even failed to modernize their traditional arts and crafts. The toughening competition in employment, trade and industry did hardly made members of the community prepare themselves for new challenges. Dearth of pertinent information regarding emerging fields, government schemes, credit and training facilities, etc and lack of facilitation structure for harnessing the same has further snatched opportunities from their weakening hands. The work culture does not exist within the community, which is very much essential for economic rise of any nation or community. While referring the sudden rise of China as an economic superpower, Dr M.Y Khan, a Mumbai-based management consultant, has rightly concluded that “Nations and communities have progressed faster on their own efforts, hard work and sense of accountability towards their goals and deeds”. The community should be awakened to take economic progress seriously lest it will not be able to come out from the vicious circle of economic backwardness and deprivation.

So long as external factors are concerned, Muslims have to struggle hard for their very survival in the country since independence, amidst hostile and prejudicial atmosphere in both the political and economic spheres. In spite of democracy, Indian Muslims have been discriminated against and caused to languish in economic progress. The vast store of data complied and collated in Sachar Committee Report make it explicitly substantiated that they are sailing through an unfavorable sea. They could hardly receive benefits of government schemes, bank credits, private sector growth and other channels of economic progress. Their business has been targeted upon by communal rioters. How much a communal situation falls on the economic well being of any community could be understood well by the example of Gujarat. In the light of National Sample Survey of India it has been pointed out, “It is shocking that in five years between NSS55 (1999-2000) and NSS61 (2004-2005) unemployment rate of urban Muslims has increased from 18 to 52. A reverse has happened with the unemployment rate of rural Muslims where it has come down to 10 from a high of 51. What explains this anomaly? Can this be because number of small farmers shows a significant decrease in the same period? Is it possible that Muslims barely eking out a living in rural Gujarat have moved to urban areas and now living as unemployed? To understand why these Muslims may have left villages we have to go back to the representations that was made to Sachar Committee and see that security is one of the highest concerns of Muslims of Gujarat”. The traditional wealth of Indian Muslims in the form of rich Awqaf has been encroached upon in several parts of the country, even by the government establishments. When they tried to mobilize investment through interest free institutions they were denied to do so. The combined apathy of the government and the community towards educating Muslim children further reduced their chances in those sectors where education and professional skills were crucial. Many a time the government sincerely tried to alleviate conditions of the community, but the administrative mechanism laden with communal elements hardly permitted the planned benefits percolate down. Although Dr Masud Ali Khan of Hyderabad University favors financial support on viable projects for training, capacity building and material input but he also guards, “There are many financial institutions which offer financial assistance to such economically weak people. But the ailing mentality of the Muslim community consumes this assistance with utmost incuriousness”.

It has been argued by some of the contributors to the above-said seminar that the community leadership should not overplay on external factors like the role of government and other institutions and it should rather focus on generating internal strength of the community. Salman Khurshid, the Minister of Company Minority Affairs, who joined the event on its last day as the chief guest of the valedictory session, advises in this regards that “…We have been suffering from inferiority complex. If we have pushed ourselves back in this dreary complex due to apathy of a government or administration, we cannot absolve ourselves from this state of affairs”. K. Rehman Khan, the deputy chairman of Rajya Sabha also warned in his message a Muslim fellow regarding this ‘haunting’ complex that he is being “discriminated against because of his religion”. Other voices in the seminar have also joined the two representative opinions. However, several speakers felt that, since the state is the largest player in a country for the development of its people, it should be made responsible for a fair and impartial treatment with all its citizens.

The internal weaknesses and external pressures have drastically affected employment situation of a common Muslim. It has been estimated that only 51% of Muslims in the working age (14-60) are really working whereas this figure for all Indians is 85%. Out of those who are working, only 12% are in organized sector including those 4.7% who could join the bus of government jobs. The rest of them are said to be ‘self-employed’, the majority of whom are engaged in low income petty jobs such as in transport, street vending and household technical work. The unemployment rate among Muslims is 14% per annum. The popular demand of Muslim reservation in government jobs has been taken with derision in spite of the fact that Justice Rangnath Mishra Commission, set up the central government at its own without any public demand, has concluded this in bold letters that there is no legal or constitutional hurdle which comes in the way of according Muslims the benefits of reservation. One simplistic argument for denying reservation to Muslims is that there are no jobs in the public sector now and Muslim employment has better prospects in the private sector. It should be noted here that 18.6 million jobs in the public sector comprise over 70% of the overall 27 million jobs in the organized sector. Perhaps, more concerted lobbying is required to ensure reservation for Muslims in educational institutions and government jobs, which is their justified claim. Any provision for Muslim reservation will help the community in a great way in consolidating its economic position. There is no doubt that employment situation is becoming more and more competitive and the candidates are required to have skill and ability to do jobs with increased technical and professional input. This calls for opening of a network of modern coaching and training institutions especially in all Muslim concentration districts. Placement back up may also be established in various parts of the country so that aspirants could find government and private jobs and avail overseas openings without much difficulty.

It is widely understood that Muslims comprise a strong artisan class. Moreover, they prefer to be ‘self-employed’. These two facts could be used in planning for regenerating a new vigor among members of the community to participate in industries and manufacturing. For a long time, even after Independence, Muslims were dominating in some traditional industries and manufacturing works such as in garment, leather, brassware, glassware, automobile, etc. However, with the technological advancement and want of upgrading knowledge, skill and machinery, they generally fell behind time and suffered a serious setback in due course of time. The government’s apathy and the community’s weakness in mustering pressure on it, has led to immense decline in the existence of the famous Muslim artisan class and studies have established that the one-time artisans are now transforming into a labor class. Well, it is a time to bring this known artisan community from its present morass and make it contribute in the nation building. In this regard proper arrangement for micro-finance and use of the technique of self-help groups could be highly beneficial. For this purpose, the Muslim funds and NBCs could be encouraged to take the onus in a big way. Dr A.A.A Faizi refers a number of government schemes such as RUDSETI, SJSRY, SGSY, STEP, etc as important for reviving the economic vigor of the community at the grassroots and stresses that their benefits could be transferred to the community only in the presence of a strong and dynamic back up of NGOs. Moreover, interested persons must be made acquainted with the support of a number of government bodies providing know-how, training, credit and market outlets to entrepreneurs such as NABARD, SEDBI, KVIC, NMDFC and the like. Entrepreneur development institutes should be opened in large numbers for bringing Muslim talents in the mainstream business and industries.

Muslims are generally considered to be less conspicuous in the field of agriculture being comparatively an urban community, still 64% Muslims live in villages and most of them are engaged in agriculture or agriculture-based work. So it is highly risky to ignore their participation in agriculture and agri-based work in the country. There is a need to study, suggest and implement things which could strengthen their productive role in the rural India. It has been pointed out that Muslims have lesser agricultural land per head than other communities, so their rural opportunities could be explored more conveniently in agri-based work and trade.

All sorts of economic activities require a constant flow of fund and investment. Comparatively a high incidence of poverty among Muslims and unfavorable circumstances certainly cut a smaller monetary cake for them as compared to others. The seminarians have delved into this question very seriously and suggested a number of prospective avenues of funds which could be harnessed for the economic progress of the community. Based on the estimates of household income of Indian families, Dr Rahmatullah, chairman of a Mumbai-based outfit, All India Council of Muslim Economic Upliftment, deduces in that it could be regarded one of the possible guesstimates that Muslims pay an amount of Rs 4500 crore as Zakat every year. While discussing the imbalance between the total deposits of Muslims in Scheduled Banks and overall credited amount to them from them, Dr Sayed Zahid Ahmad of the same organization, calculated a huge credit loss in his write up ‘Islamic Banking and Poverty Alleviation among Indian Muslims’, who says, “It is not wise to keep loosing annual credits worth over Rs 63,770 crore and distributing Zakat worth Rs 3139 crore” on its income. It has been argued in Sachar Committee Report that if the income from the rent of Awqaf could be increased above the book value and made at par with current market trends than an annual income from this sanctified property would be in the order of whooping Rs 12000 crore. It has also been argued to divert Muslim expenditure from non-priority to priority heads and reduce profligacy in social and religious practices; then a huge amount could be made available for poverty alleviation and economic empowerment of the community from this ‘saving is earning’ concept without any external assistance. One interesting instance cited by Abdul Rashid Agwan in his introductory note to the seminar is that around 150,000 rich Muslims go on a non-obligatory Umarh during Ramadan almost every year and spend on tour expenses an aggregate amount of around Rs 2100 crore and, according to him, this huge amount should be diverted to some productive use for the progress and development of the community at large.

See all these huge figures in comparison to the annual allocation of central government in the union budget for the development and welfare of minorities to be 1700 crore, of which only 85% is meant specifically for Muslims in proportion to their population among the five minorities. So, if the community is provided with some appropriate legal framework and active community and state support for harnessing and utilizing the above-referred community-based funds of the value of over Rs 20,000 crore per annum or so then perhaps they will need no special patronage of any government for their normal development and progress; rather they will contribute in their own humble way in the nation building.

Another means of community empowerment is seen in the form of Islamic banking and finance. The bulk of papers presented in the seminar of IFA focus on this theme only. Former executive director of Reserve Bank of India Dr A. Hasib highlights importance of interest free economy in the context of global crisis, whereas former secretary, Ministry of Finance, Bangladesh and the Deputy Executive President of Islami Bank Bangladesh shared the experiences of Islamic banking in their country. Ehsanul Haq points out changes required for permitting interest free banking in India whereas Dr Waqar Anwar and Dr M.I Bagisiraj explores possibilities of Islamic banking in India in the light of experiences of non-Muslim countries in the West and elsewhere. Dr Amin and Dr Qureshi of Aligarh Muslim University discuss problems and prospects of Islamic banking in the country mainly in the light of experience of Muslim funds in Uttar Pradesh and in other parts of the country. H. Abdur Raqib of Indian Centre for Islamic Finance presented a detailed note on the position of Reserve Bank of India in the context of permitting Islamic banking in the country and explored possibilities for the same on an early time. M.H Khatkhatey and Dr Shariq Nisar, both from TASIS, have constantly arguing for the Shariah complaint investment in shares and commodities. All these aspirants stress on Islamic banking and finance as a powerful means of mobilizing huge sums existing as an unproductive and idle wealth into the mainstream economy for diverting its benefits to the community and the country alike.

Two interesting discussions were raised in the aforementioned seminar by Arshad Ajmal and Mahtab Alam on grassroots’ struggle for empowering common people including Muslims. The first one deals with the definition of poverty and its scaling and its application in the context of Muslims. Accordingly, he argues that there are many more members of the community below poverty line than what is currently estimated by the government. He also raises the point regarding direction of Muslim efforts for the economic empowerment of the community since mostly emphasis is given on generation of wealth rather than alleviating poverty and helping those languishing at the lower rung of society. If his argument is taken in the right earnest then it would mean that, for example, a cooperative society should stress more on maximizing coverage and assistance to poor and needy rather than on increasing its revenue. The latter discussant placed an agenda of generating awareness and information base in villages and small towns as tools of empowering the community.

As a responsible leader of All India Muslim Personal Law Board, Abdur Rahim Qureshi has pointed out in his valuable contribution to the seminar the history of constant changes in the Waqf Act and observed that persistently it could not be amended as per the aspirations of the community and consequently failed to preserve the valuable treasurer of Muslims in each nook and cranny of the country. Since Waqf properties are considered to be an important instrument of economic development, they should be preserved and made productive to the maximum extent. Salman Khursheed, the minister of minority affairs, who happened to be on the dais at the time of presentation of this critical note, assured the government’s cooperation in incorporating the points raised by the learned contributor.

There is no doubt that the holding of this seminar on “Economic Advancement of Indian Muslims: The Situation and Scope” was timely and the seminarians covered a variety of concerning issues and reached to some pragmatic suggestions for alleviating the obtained situation. The major achievements of the seminar include advocacy of a strong viewpoint regarding material progress within the framework of Islam and the underlining of a concrete action plan for making opening of Islamic banking in the country possible and on an early date. The seminar upholds more hopes than bewilderment amidst an arising promise of time.

What's Wrong With Muslims

By Aijaz Zaka Syed

What is a writer without his or her readers? I take my share of readers’ feedback seriously. It’s invariably interesting and instructive. Check out this mail from a regular reader, Shiv Dhanush, for instance, in response to my recent column on the predicament of Indian Muslims: “There are less than one million Hindus and Sikhs in the US, that is, 0.3 per cent of the population. But governors of two out of the 50 US states are from this community. There are nearly six million Muslims in the US but they do not have anyone in governor mansions. You can extend the example to other top learning institutions like MIT, Cal Tech, Berkeley, Harvard and Yale, etc. The representation of Hindu and Sikh children is greater than their percentage in the population.
“The share of Muslims in these elite institutions is lower than their population ratio. You can make a comparison of Punjabi (or Sindhi or Bengali) Hindus and Sikhs versus Punjabi Muslims in the US or UK and their relative achievements. Make a similar comparison of Hindus and Sikhs versus Muslims in US and UK prisons and you’ll see alarming results.
“The playing field for all immigrants in the West is the same. So how did this happen? It happened because Hindus, Sikhs, and others give highest priority to education and personal excellence (whereas Muslims do not). This is why Muslims today find themselves even behind the Dalits in India in all walks of life.”
My apologies for this long quote, but it’s intrinsic to my argument. Besides, this is fascinating stuff, don’t you think? In fact, Shiv goes on to argue that the South Asian Muslims wanted Pakistan because they knew they couldn’t compete with Hindus and Sikhs in an undivided India!
I have no issues with Shiv’s argument and most of his facts. In fact, we are on the same page in his analysis about the Muslim under-representation in all walks of life and their excessive presence on the wrong side of the law.
The shining examples of Louisiana governor Piyush Jindal, being lionised as the Republicans’ answer to Obama and a future president, and South Carolina governor Nimrata Kaur are a source of inspiration and pride not just for Hindus and Sikhs but the whole of India and Asia. There are countless such examples in the land of opportunity that is America – of Indians scaling the pinnacle of excellence in universities, research and scientific centres and Silicon Valley companies, thanks to their hard work and dedication.
However, if Indian Hindus and Sikhs are increasingly becoming the shining face of the great American dream while their Muslim counterparts rough it out in the cold, there’s another more prosaic explanation.
I hate to disrupt Shiv’s reverie, but if the Jindals and Kaurs of this world find themselves in US governor mansions today, and possibly on their way to the White House, they’ve had to pay a price for it. Piyush Jindal was born a Hindu to Hindu immigrant parents from Punjab. He converted to Christianity when he grew up, christening himself as Bobby Jindal. Today, he and his wife Supriya are proper churchgoing folk, like the rest of the predominantly white, genteel Christian America.
Ditto Nimrata Kaur, who today calls herself Nikki Haley. She was born a Sikh to second-generation Sikh immigrants. Like Jindal, she converted to Christianity before joining politics. She’s married to Michael Haley and has two children, all of them nice, practicing Christians.
Of course, this has nothing to do with faith. Each to his or her own, and I am a firm believer in everyone doing his/her own thing. What I am trying to emphasise is the fact that both Jindal and Kaur had to give up their original identity and faith to find acceptance in white middle-class America.
I am an ardent admirer of the great American dream and its enduring allure that continues to beckon generations of dreamers from around the world. But I have to point out that today if Jindal and Kaur are where they are, it’s also because of their willingness to give up their beliefs to merge their identity with the host society, becoming tolerable for the Republican and Tea Party rabble-rousers. Compromises are made at every step of the staircase to heaven.
Unfortunately or fortunately, this is something the Muslims cannot do. They would rather languish on the edges of the American dream than give up their identity and faith to live in governor’s mansions.
I know this is a huge weakness or failing, according to the worldview of friends like Shiv. But that’s how they are: rigid and uncompromising when it comes to their convictions and totally out of sync with the way of the world and liberal ways of the West. If they are left out in the cold while the rest of the world is partying, they do not seem to mind. And this is a global phenomenon, wherever Muslims are, from the Americas to Australia.
In fact, this apparent lack of “flexibility” and preoccupation with religion is seen as being at the heart of the West-Islam conflict today. Call it what you will, but this is in the very nature of Islam, that it demands its followers to accept it as a way of life, rather than as something private between God and the believer.
But if the Muslims find themselves stuck in a rut almost everywhere while the rest of the world is flying past them on the high road to glory, it’s not because there’s too much of religion in their lives. It’s because they have failed to apply it the way it should be to their lives. Instead of imbibing the liberating teachings and revolutionary spirit of a faith that guides us every step of the way, we have turned it into a set of meaningless rituals and a heavy yoke around our neck.
It was the same faith that transformed the bands of unruly, bloodletting Arabian tribes into a world power in less than a decade, bringing down the mighty Persian and Roman empires like a house of cards.
It wasn’t just on the battlefield that they beat others. They pioneered a knowledge and scientific revolution which, in turn, fed and inspired the European Renaissance. From philosophy and poetry to physics and chemistry and from mathematics and medicine to planetary science, the West built its discoveries and advances based on blueprints created by Muslim pioneers.
Unlike us, early Muslims had been driven by a compelling craving and hunger for knowledge and new ideas, wherever they could find them. While we have become the prisoners of our past and our often narrow, literal interpretation of Islamic teachings, they looked to the future, showing the way forward to others.
They did not preach their faith. They lived it, promoting it with their actions and with their honesty, simplicity, piety and courage. At the same time, they promoted a culture of hard work, perseverance and excellence wherever they went and whatever they turned their attention to. No wonder they conquered the world in no time and have left behind a civilization to last forever.
They were extraordinary men, giants among men. A really hard act to follow, indeed! But if we could recreate even a fraction of their magic, we would do ourselves an immense favor, transforming our wretched existence forever and creating a better world.

No takers for Maulana Azad's legacy

Muslim intellectuals linger on discussions ruing government's apathy towards Urdu language in the state of Utter Pradesh. However, a literary treasure in Urdu has found no takers amongst the self proclaimed custodians of the language.

The case in point is Al Hilal weekly journal, established in 1912 by great freedom fighter and first education minister of independent India, Maulana Abul Kalam Azad. Seminars and functions will be held on Maulana Azad's 53rd death anniversary on Tuesday; however none of the group comes forward for Azad's work.

In order to preserve Maulana's heritage and works beside promotion of Urdu language, the state Urdu academy, published a compilation of Al Hilal. The step was taken, so that the Urdu loving populace and Muslim intelligentsia of the state may benefit and be aware of Maulana Azad and Urdu’s contribution in the freedom struggle.

The compilation includes all issues of Al Hilal and is in three thick volumes. The total cost in the publication of over 1000 copies was around Rs 27 lakhs. The volumes were put on sale at a tag of Rs 4200 but not a single copy was sold. A discount of 25 percent thus reducing the price to Rs 3050 also failed to attract any Urdu lover.

The favorite past time of every Muslim leader worth his name is bashing the government ruing poor state of Urdu language. The state government presently is spending nearly 100 crores towards establishment of a Urdu Arbi Farsi University in the state, however there are hardly any takers for Maulana Azad's legacy written in Urdu language.

"It is a pity that there are no takers of Maulana Azad's work. Claims of Urdu language being in bad shape do not stand if we ourselves are not concerned about the language, Azad's work are even more relevant in present scenario," remarked AQ Hashmi, who runs a Maulana Azad Academy in the city.

During the British Raj the weekly journal in Urdu Al Hilal was widely circulated and was a means to inculcate revolutionary thoughts among Muslims. The all time great leaders as Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru too wrote their pieces in the journal. The journal was also instrumental in strengthening the Hindu-Muslim bond after the two communities drifted post Morley-Minto reform.

When the British government had banned Al Hilal in1914 under Press Act, Maulana Azad started another weekly called Al-Balagh with the same mission but it also met the same fate.

The Desire for Freedom in the Arab World Cannot Be Swept Away

By Ibrahim Ramey

 

The monumental events in Egypt have become a catalyst for a huge wave of popular uprising that is sweeping the Arab world.  In nations as diverse as Yemen, Jordan, Bahrain, Algeria, and Libya, hundreds of thousands of ordinary citizens have taken to the streets to demand basic freedoms and an end to the corrupt regimes that oppress them.  In many cases, these nonviolent demonstrations have been met with lethal force by both military supporters of these regimes, and assorted thugs and counter-progressive forces that act as proxies for the official governments.

 

But it is in Libya, ruled by an autocrat for the last 40 years, that events have reached a point of open warfare.  According to reports from the respected international organization Human Rights Watch, more than 300 peaceful demonstrators have been killed by military forces loyal to the Libyan leader Muammar Quaddafi.  The Libyan army is using automatic weapons and snipers to shoot opponents massed in the streets of Tripoli and Benghazi, and countless others have been serious wounded.  But the pro-democracy demonstrators in Libya have not been deterred from their freedom struggle; indeed, it is reported that one military unit in Benghazi has defected from government control, while the parliament building in Tripoli was set ablaze.

 

While we certainly call for an end to the violence that is convulsing Libya and much of the Arab world, we note that the overwhelming majority of this violence comes from the government forces that are adamantly opposed to democracy.  Unarmed demonstrators demand social change in the face of overwhelming force.  The despots whom they seek to replace have all too frequently shown no regard for human life.  And yet, the demonstrations continue.

 

The Muslim American Society believes in the fundamental right of all people to enjoy their God-given human rights and freedoms, and to establish lawful governments that protect these rights.  Indeed, the religion of Islam, when practiced with clarity and integrity, affirms and protects these rights as well.  When governments in majority-Muslim nations violate these rights, the people of these nations have the responsibility to protest, and to change those governments through nonviolent means of mass protest and mobilization.  And when the legitimate demand for change is met with violence, then it is the duty of all civilized nations to stand with the heroic people who resist oppression.

 

We believe, as American Muslims, that these fundamental human rights must be guarded, and that ruling parties and established governments should not use force to maintain their rule.  The legitimacy of any system of government, as the U.S. Declaration of Independence says, can only come from the consent of the people.  And when that consent is challenged or withdrawn, then those governments must be dissolved, and yield to the popular demand for change.

When Politics becomes Idolatry:  The Demise of the Moammar Qaddafi and his Libyan Arab Jamahiriya  

 

 When I personally met the supreme leader of the Libyan people in June, 1990, the world was a different place, and his unflinching grip on the reins of absolute national power was as close to unshakable as one could imagine. 

Colonel Qaddafi was cool, elegantly attired, quite gracious, and also typically incoherent when he appeared, unannounced to a session of a conference in Sirte, Libya, where my friend Greg Payton and I were, as far as we could tell, the only persons from the United States in attendance.  Qaddafi, quite interestingly, was making overtures to the global peace and disarmament movement (where I located myself at the time), and more than a few of us benefited from the largess of the Libyan leader and his cronies.

But now, as events clearly show, the construction of the popular Jamahiriya, or "state of the masses" was little more than a front to consolidate power in the hands of one man, whose rule has gone from reckless to crazy to almost genocidal.  The Libya of today is deeply submerged in the pit of civil war, and forces loyal to Qaddafi are engaging in an orgy of murder and, reportedly, rape of unarmed demonstrators, all to to keep their leader in power and their juice flowing from the oil wealth that has been expropriated from the Libyan people for decades.  This is a bloody struggle, with no clear victor and no clear end in sight.

And it is also a contest that teaches us a bit about the danger of ego worship, and the idolatry (in Arabic, Shirk) that compels people to reject the worship of God and substitute it for the deification of a human being.

In the case of Moammar Qaddafi, I suspect that the deviation from the worship of God was not sudden, but that it happened over time.  When he presented himself at the conference where I met him nearly 21 years ago, he interrupted his rambling and extemporaneous talk to go to the mosque next door to pray when we heard the sound of the Athan (call to prayer).  He made a point to tell the audience about the importance of prayer as he and his entourage left the room for 30 minutes while his guests stopped everything to wait for his return.  I had not taken my declaration of faith in Islam at the time, but I remember how impressed I was that the leader of a nation could demonstrate such piety, especially to a largely non-Muslim conference.

But now, some 21 years later, this "pious" Muslim leader is slaughtering his own people as punishment for their crime of demanding freedom and democracy.

The spiritual lesson that I learn from this is that when individuals abandon God for the worship of a human personality, and the worship of absolute (worldly) power that a dictator possesses, they  have committed the most grave of all sins in Islam.  Leaders can be mistaken, or corrupt, or even delusional, but when they take for themselves the power of literal life or death to their compatriots, based on nothing more than personal loyalty and submission, they become monstrosities. 

God enjoins us, in whatever capacity we find ourselves, to be just and honorable, and compassionate.  And when dictators become objects of worship, they become false gods that can destroy a nation.

Qaddafi may well have been a decent Muslim sometime in the past.  But now,as the world recoils from the mass killing in the streets of Libya, he is only barely recognized as still human.  And those of us who love and worship the One Lord of Creation (Allah) and follow the guidance of His Qur'an, must do all we can to save the people of Libya from the horrible consequence of this worship of the human personality.

Magnitude up to 9.1 points - this is the most powerful earthquake in Japan on record. March 14, official sources reported nearly 5000 dead, but this figure is not final.

20. The biggest tsunami.
The highest wave of the tsunami, scientists reported in the Gulf fordoobraznom Lita, located in southeast Alaska.

Natural disaster occurred in the evening July 9, 1958, beginning with the earthquake and landslide at fault Ferueter. It was a landslide caused, which has produced record-breaking wave (524m above sea level). The huge stone mass collapsed into the water from the rocks on the northeast coast of the Gulf. From a height of 910 meters 300 million cubic meters of rock, ice and land have broken down.

Powerful waves move across the bay at a speed of 160km / h. The main blow fell on the southwest coast of the bay Hilbert. Wave was of such magnitude that it is easy to completely perehlestnula a sandbank at the mouth of the bay. La Cosa Gauss, separating the bay from the Gulf of Gilbert, was virtually destroyed by violence of the elements. A huge number of trees wave uprooted and carried away into the ocean. As a result of the disaster in the ground cracks appeared, slipped down the coast, and numerous buildings were destroyed.

Bay Lita was a favorite spot for fishing off the local population. During the accident at the epicenter of the events were three ships. Fishermen felt very strong push that dropped them out of bed, and have witnessed how the giant wave lashed out fiercely at the foot of the mountain.

Witnesses at first thought that they face glacier Lita: a huge boulder, which had seemed strong, was moving toward them. On the space that used to grow lush forests, the wave leaving only bare rock at an altitude of 600m. Wave lifted one of the barges and dumped it into the ocean, playfully moving through the shallows. The vessel was separated into pieces, but luckily he survived and the fishermen were found safe two hours after the accident. Another boat also escaped, but the third drowned - body fishermen have not been found.

When You Make a Mistake
Maulana Whiduddin Khan
One of the Quranic teachings is tauba, which means repentance. When you make a mistake and do tauba, the blessing of God will return to you. In the chapter entitled Al-Tahrim (Prohibition), the Quran says: "O believers turn to God in sincere repentance, in the hope that your Lord will forgive you your bad deeds and admit you into gardens watered by running streams." (66:8)
In this verse the Quran declares that after engaging in genuine tauba, one who has erred will be unburdened of the effect of his bad deeds. What is most important about this is that the wrong-doer will be granted forgiveness by God and will consequently be rewarded with paradise in the hereafter. This divine blessing is not confined to the next world; in the extended sense, it also includes the present world. Family life and social life will also be blessed with the fruits of tauba. If you make a mistake that arouses anger in another, but then you repent and say, "Please forgive me, I was wrong," this will certainly cause the aggrieved person to have a change of heart. Such an apology will, on the one hand, inculcate positivity in your soul and, on the other it will promote the culture of love among the people you are living with. In family life as well as social life, untoward events are unavoidable. Such happenings sour relations and create a distance between people. The best solution is tauba. Don't wait for others to take the lead. It is for you to come forward and say without hesitation, "I am sorry, I was wrong."
This is the only way of maintaining normalcy among relatives, friends, acquaintances and even strangers. Problems in social life invariably arise from some kind of wrong behaviour. And there is no social ill that cannot be set right by this formula.

Al-Qaeda 100% Pentagon Run







Alex Jones & Aaron Dykes
Infowars.com
March 31, 2011

In a special video address http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8txxny-E7w&feature=player_embedded , Alex Jones terms the al Qaeda intelligence operation a ‘Swiss army knife’ for destabilization. Simply put, it is a tool to foment crisis that allows the globalists to offer up a solution in variable contexts.

Watch Zbigniew Brzezinski giving a pep talk to Afghan mujahideens: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYvO3qAlyTg&feature=player_embedded

Today, ‘freelancers‘ in Libya; yesterday, terrorists in the ‘War on Terror.’ Before that, allies against Serbia; in the 80s, Freedom Fighters. The shadowy enemy supposedly run by Osama bin Laden and top jihadists like Anwar al-Awlaki is really an extension of U.S. foreign policy and the Pentagon. Al Qaeda shifts across the geopolitical chessboard at the will of its masters in the allied-international intelligence ring. It is perhaps government’s greatest hoax… but the tactic is one of the oldest tricks in the book for any power-seeking State.

For the average person who has lived through the phony ‘War on Terror’, a post-9/11 age of fear that has swirled around the persona of bin Laden, it may be quite confusing to now read headlines like Libya: the West and al-Qaeda on the same side. Indeed, the rebel forces trying to topple Gaddafi admittedly include more than 1,000 al Qaeda soldiers while enjoying total backing– weapons, planes, funding and forces– from the U.S., Britain, NATO and other allies. The CIA and British SAS forces that are now “officially” entering Libya as ground support were covertly operating at least a month ago.

Alex expanded on his Russia Today rant where he covered this topic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1qlB61mmFg&feature=player_embedded

There is an increasing pressure from lawmakers in Washington, as well as from the American public for President Obama to be more specific in the strategy for Libya. Radio host Alex Jones however argues there is more to it than an American/Obama agenda. He compared the situation with the US missions in Iraq, Rwanda and Serbia, where, he alleged, Al-Qaeda was created by the CIA and used to fight Serbs all as a part of an overall globalist agenda of the New World Order.

However, the Pentagon-run al Qaeda hoax has deeper history than can be covered in just a few minutes of airtime.

DOUBLETHINK: CREATE THE ENEMY, FOOL THE PUBLIC

Al Qaeda 100% Pentagon Run 4995361550 bf01bc4008

As we cover some of the highlights of al Qaeda’s duplicitous history, consider these conflicting statements from two U.S. Presidents about the Taliban / al Qaeda (albeit from different points in time):

“They hate our freedoms — our freedom of religion, our freedom of speech, our freedom to vote and assemble and disagree with each other.”
– George W. Bush, Address to a Joint Session of Congress and the American People, September 20, 2001

“These (Taliban) gentlemen are the moral equivalents of America’s Founding Fathers.”
— Ronald Wilson Reagan in 1985 while introducing the Mujahideen leaders to media on the White House lawn.

Al Qaeda 100% Pentagon Run 1984webThe answer to the contradiction is learning to embrace the deception as truth, whenever the State says to do so, just as Winston Smith finally “learns” in1984– when he is compelled to find that 2+2=5. His torturer, O’Brien, tells himYou are a slow learner, Winston.’

‘How can I help it?’ [Winston] blubbered. ‘How can I help seeing what is in front of my eyes? Two and two are four.’

‘Sometimes, Winston. Sometimes they are five. Sometimes they are three. Sometimes they are all of them at once. You must try harder. It is not easy to become sane.’

Karl Rove, a key architect of the Bush Administration, known glowingly as “Bush’s Brain”, chastised reporters in 2002 who tried to appeal to the “reality-based community” in the face of a President who, according to Ron Suskind of the NY Times expressed to high level members of Congress, aides and the like that he didn’t need the facts:

The aide [Rove] said that guys like me were ”in what we call the reality-based community,” which he defined as people who ”believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality.” I nodded and murmured something about enlightenment principles and empiricism. [Rove] cut me off. ”That’s not the way the world really works anymore,” he continued. ”We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you’re studying that reality — judiciously, as you will — we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.”

Unbeknownst to the media at that time, Rove was operating on behalf of a government that was not only arrogant, but had taken a page directly out of George Orwell’s 1984. America’s enemy Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda were remarkably like Emmanuel Goldstein, arch-villain of Oceania in 1984. Goldstein [or bin Laden] was “commander of a vast shadowy army, an underground network of conspirators dedicated to the overthrow of the State.” An enemy that couldn’t be found, killed or slowed from influencing new conspirators at every turn. “Somewhere or other,” Orwell wrote, “he was still alive and hatching his conspiracies.”

“Goldstein was delivering his usual venomous attack upon the doctrines of the Party —an attack so exaggerated and perverse that a child should have been able to see through it, and yet just plausible enough to fill one with an alarmed feeling that other people, less level-headed than oneself, might be taken in by it… Goldstein produced fear and anger automatically. He was an object of hatred more constant than either Eurasia or Eastasia, since when Oceania was at war with one of these Powers it was generally at peace with the other. But what was strange was that although Goldstein was hated and despised by everybody… his influence never seemed to grow less.”

In 1984, it was rumored that Goldstein might even be taking refuge somewhere within their own superstate itself; consequently, “a day never passed when spies and saboteurs acting under his directions were not unmasked by the Thought Police.” In contemporary America, the Department of Homeland Security now takes that possibility as its directive, screening and searching ordinary people everywhere in search of shadowy al Qaeda or “homegrown terrorists.” Also, like in 1984, children were trained to be spies to rat out suspicious adults.

Al Qaeda 100% Pentagon Run 252245492 9802b44544Behind the hoax contrived to control party members and maintain power, Winston’s torturer and member of the inner-party, O’Brien, confessed had personally taken part in writing Goldstein’s outlawed book– a lie to serve the State. It was necessary for the controlling party to create a living myth that portrayed Goldstein as a classic, evasive “external enemy“. The utility of the external enemy has been noted by many, including the Club of Rome, who wrote in 1991 that “Humans only truly unite when faced with a powerful external enemy…At this time a new enemy must be found, one either real or invented for the purpose.” Henry Kissinger likewise quipped at Bilderberg in 1991 that the United Nations might seize upon an “outside threat from beyond” to unite the peoples of the world.

Thus, the steady diet of propaganda, including the two-minutes hate that daily featured new installments of Goldstein’s crimes and heresies. In 1984, Goldstein was:

“almost on a level with Big Brother himself, and then had engaged in counter-revolutionary activities, had been condemned to death, and had mysteriously escaped and disappeared. The programmes of the Two Minutes Hate varied from day to day, but there was none in which Goldstein was not the principal figure. He was the primal traitor.”

O’Brien admitted during Winston’s torturous re-education sessions that: “Goldstein and his heresies will live for ever. Every day, at every moment, they will be defeated, discredited, ridiculed, spat upon and yet they will always survive.” Bin Laden has been patently the same archetypal enemy– despite being wanted dead or alive (Bush, Sept. 18, 2001), armies can’t find him [TIME 2002] after a decade.

Al Qaeda 100% Pentagon Run most+recent+fake

Admittedly fake videos with bad look-alikes and audio recordings supposedly sent by bin Laden surfaced routinely just before elections (Tom Ridge later admitted that terror threats were elevated to help Bush’s re-election bid) or when the American people needed a reminder of the threat of terror. Prior to the admissions, analysts correctly suspected that the logos were placed by the CIA-linked Intel Center. Despite the fact that bin Laden is reportedly deadand had been in the hospital on kidney dialysis, Osama bin Laden was every elusive, and his survival as the external enemy has, like Goldstein, seemed almost guaranteed.

 

AL QAEDA THE ALLY / AL QAEDA THE ENEMY

Al Qaeda 100% Pentagon Run pentagon terror hoaxThe real Osama bin Laden is a Western-trained CIA asset with the declassified code-name “Tim Osman.” He was chosen to lead the Mujahideen / Taliban in Afghanistan, in part, because his wealthy family has been a long-term business partner to key families in the West, including the Bush family (Carlyle Group). In fact, George H. W. Bush, the father, had been meeting with one of Osama bin Laden’s brother on the morning of 9/11. The real Mujahideen has been used for a variety of Western-back political purposes, namely upheaval and destabilization.

Back in 1979, al Qaeda, in the form of the Mujahideen / Taliban, were America’s secret weapon in Operation Cyclone. It was geostrategist Zbigniew Brzezinski, then National Security Advisor under Carter, who schemed to draw the Soviet Union into a trap that might bleed them dry. [Declassifed documents authorizing action AB]

Brzezinski gave an interview to France’s Le Nouvel Observateur in 1998, unapologetic about their covert aid the Mujahadeen six months before the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan. Here is a segment of that interview:

Q: You don’t regret anything today?
Brzezinski: Regret what? That secret operation was an excellent idea. It had the effect of drawing the Russians into the Afghan trap and you want me to regret it? The day that the Soviets officially crossed the border, I wrote to President Carter: We now have the opportunity of giving to the USSR its Vietnam war. Indeed, for almost 10 years, Moscow had to carry on a war unsupportable by the government, a conflict that brought about the demoralization and finally the breakup of the Soviet empire.
Q: And neither do you regret having supported the Islamic [integrisme], having given arms and advice to future terrorists?
Brzezinski: What is most important to the history of the world? The Taliban or the collapse of the Soviet empire? Some stirred-up Moslems or the liberation of Central Europe and the end of the cold war?
Q: Some stirred-up Moslems? But it has been said and repeated: Islamic fundamentalism represents a world menace today.
Brzezinski: Nonsense!

Watch Zbigniew Brzezinski giving a pep talk to Afghan mujahideens: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYvO3qAlyTg&feature=player_embedded

During the Reagan years, they were Freedom Fighters, public heroes heralding the possibility for democracy to spread overseas in resistance to Communism. Reagan even dedicated the launch of the space shuttle Columbia to the Afghans http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipszh14WPFY&feature=player_embedded, in the name of the ‘highest aspirations of freedom.’ In 1985, Ronald Reagan said the men in the Taliban’s ranks were “the moral equivalents of America’s Founding Fathers.” These men were supported openly for a decade as the Soviets met ‘their Vietnam’ in Afghanistan.

Todays the Taliban, Al Qaeda and terrorists - yesterday the big American allied forces. In 1982, Ronald Reagan dedicated the Space Shuttle Columbia to the resistance fighters in Afghanistan: “Just as the Columbia, we think, represents man's finest aspirations in the field of science and technology so too does the struggle of the Afghan people represent man's highest aspirations for freedom. I am dedicating, on behalf of the American people, the March 22nd launch of the Columbia to the people of Afghanistan.”

As Kurt Nimmo writes:

Osama bin Laden ran MAK (Maktab al-Khidamat), an organization created by Pakistan’s ISI at the behest of the CIA. It funneled money, weapons, and internationally recruited fighters into the war created in part by Jimmy Carter’s National Security Adviser,Zbigniew Brezinski. Osama was closely tied to the Afghan warlord and ISI stooge Gulbuddin Hekmatyar who ran drugs for the CIA. In the 1980s, emissaries from the United States met with Osama. The CIA paid Osama to train the militant group Abu Sayyaf and others at his CIA-built camps in Afghanistan. In New York, Osama’s MAK operated the CIA-connected al-Kifah Refugee Center that was involved in the 1993 WTC bombing. The U.S. government would later call the al-Kifah charity the “precursor organization to al-Qaeda.”

By the late 80s and early 90s, al-Qaeda “migrated to Bosnia hoping to assist their Islamic brethren in a struggle against Serbian [and for a time] Croatian forces.” Al Qaeda was still a U.S. and Saudi-backed ally circa 1999 that backed the Albanian KLA in terrorist acts in the war-torn Yugoslavian region, even up to the time of NATO’s bombings, despite growing concerns about terrorism. See also: Mega Oil and mujahidin from the Balkans to the Caucasus

The 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center was exposed to another cruel hoax. In 1993, the F.B.I. became, at best, dangerous enablers as they undertook a “sting” operation to allegedly prove the culpability of the suspects. Even Wikipedia admits that harmless powder was swapped with real bomb material. F.B.I. informant Emad Salem became alarmed at the introduction of real explosives and recorded his conversations with the F.B.I. proving they enabled and allowed the bombing to go forward that killed 4 people.

With Serbia / former Yugoslavia still fresh in the public mind, theUSS Cole was bombed in October 2000 in a Yemeni port. The act of terror against the United States would be blamed on Osama bin Laden, rogue heir to the wealthy family that did & does business with big Western players (like the Carlyle Group).

The 9/11 attacks hit. It was instantly blamed on Osama bin Laden. Endless contradictions to the official government account emerged over the coming hours, days, weeks and years for now almost a decade, without any sign of accountability or truth in the officialdomanywhere in sight. In addition to gross contradictions to the laws of physics in the collapses of WTC towers 1, 2 and7, details came forward about how the accused hijackers were trained at U.S. baseslived with FBI informants, were given VISAS and let past borders despite being on the watchlists; the hijackers were identified by U.S. intelligence agencies [Able Danger, et. al.], but their warnings were ignored (and much, much more: prior knowledge, warnings, drills, etc., etc., etc.).

While rallying the public behind a war in Afghanistan, and soon in Iraq as well, the Bush Administration clandestinely let members of the bin Laden family quietly fly out of the United States, even while all other flights were grounded. It would be revealed in articles about the “Airlift of Evil,” that U.S. forces also covertly exported Taliban forces from Afghanistan to Pakistan; meanwhile, U.S. soldiers where geared up to search in caves and rugged terrain for a shadowy enemy in the “graveyard of empires“; as of 2011, the deadline for leaving Afghanistan continues to roll back.

As noted earlier, embarrassing leaks emerged casting doubt on the validity of al Qaeda’s jihad against America, as the Bush Administration continued to hype the threat of terror without pause. Controversial measures, including the Constitution-shredding Patriot Actwarrantless-wiretaps of U.S. citizens, torture (Obama refused to investigate the crimes of the Bush Admin.) and indefinite detention and other devastating attacks on the “hated freedoms” of Americanscontinued seamlessly under Barack Obama.

Al Qaeda 100% Pentagon Run 31awlakiNearly every major terror plot uncovered domestically has, in fact, turned out to be a contrivance by the FBI where it sets-up a sting and encourages its patsies to carry out an attack. The “close calls” on American soil since 9/11 have largely been connected to Anwar al-Awlaki, who it was revealed, dined with Pentagon brass in the months after 9/11. The Underwear Bombing who tried to blow-up a Detroit-bound plane was given VISA clearance by the State Dept. despite being on the watchlist; witnesses Kurt & Lori Haskell watched Abdulmutallabbeing helped on the plane by a “sharp-dressed man” who was most likely an intelligence agent. They also witnessed other suspect/patsies who were never mentioned in the mainstream media. The key questions their verified account raises may never be addressed, as the accused Abdulmutallab is attempting to represent himself in court. Hoaxes and inconsistencies have been raised around the cases of the Foot Hood shooter, the Times Square bomber and many, many others. Even Geraldo Rivera of Fox News has noted that the FBI’s pattern of sting operations are ‘bogus’.

Homeland Security took on a greater role, imposing absurd and unpopular TSA body scannersand groping pat-downs on travelers. DHS has furthered rolled out checkpoints, mobile x-ray vans on public streets & highways (including pedestrians), on trains, buses and boats, as well as at sport stadiums, hotels and shopping malls and beyond.

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2010/10/20/al-qaeda-terror-leader-dined-pentagon-months/

In 2011, George Orwell’s “War is Peace” mantra is upgraded once again, as the Nobel Peace Prize winner President Obama expands war into Libya under the Orwellian-guise of a “humanitarian crisis,” imposing a no-fly zone (which immediately gave way to full scale bombings and then ground forces). Americans, Westerners and the world at-large must scratch their heads once again as wars in Iraq and Afghanistan not only continue, but the West finds an unlikely ally against Col. Gaddafi in rebels made up of al Qaeda forces. The Lie has not stopped, as Western intelligence continues to wield one of its most powerful client-weapons– the al Qaeda hoax, invariably friend or foe, as the situation demands. In classic doublethink, the same week the public learns its anti-Gaddafi allies include al Qaeda, over-the-top, grandiose threats are made by mail claiming that al Qaeda has some 160 nuclear bombs buried at strategic locations across the United States; if there’s any truth at all to the claim, you can be certain the nuclear material was delivered via Western intelligence.

The NWO global conspirators manifest their agenda through the skillful manipulation of human emotions, especially fear. In the past centuries, they have repeatedly utilized a contrivance that NWO researcher and author David Icke has characterized in his latest book, The Biggest Secret, as Problem, Reaction, and Solution.

The technique is as follows: Illuminati strategists create the Problem- by funding , assembling, and training an “opposition” group to stimulate turmoil in an established political power (sovereign country, region, continent, etc.) that they wish to impinge upon and thus create opposing factions in a conflict that the Illuminati themselves maneuvered into existence. In recent decades, so called “opposition” groups are usually identified in the media as ‘freedom fighters’ or ‘liberators’ (recently the KLA-Kosovo Liberation Army).

At the same time, the leader of the established political power where the conflict is being orchestrated is demonized and, on cue, referred to as ‘another Hitler’ (take your pick: Saddam Hussein, Milosevic, Kadaffi, etc.). The ‘freedom fighters’ are not infrequently assembled from a local criminal element (i.e. KLA, drug traffickers). In the spirit of true Machiavellian deceit, the same NWO strategists are equally involved in covertly arming and advising the leader of the established power as well (the Illuminati always profits from any armed conflict by loaning money, arming, and supplying all parties involved in a war).

The conflict is drawn to the world stage by the controlled media outlets with a barrage of photos and video tape reports of horrific and bloody atrocities suffered by innocent civilians. The cry goes up “Something has to be done!” And That is the desired Reaction (note: the same technique is presently being used to bring about gun control in the United States).

The NWO puppeteers then provide the Solution by sending in UN ‘Peace Keepers’ (Bosnia) or a UN ‘Coalition Force’ (Gulf War) or NATO Bombers and then ground troops (Kosovo). Once installed, the ‘peace keepers’ never leave (Bosnia, Kosovo). The idea is to have NWO controlled ground troops in all major countries or strategic areas where significant resistance to the New World Order takeover is likely to be encountered.

In all that commotion, we sometime have trouble finding who’s good and who’s bad.

The globalists will drive us crazy by using “cognitive dissonance” (search it).

If we keep it simple, we have a chance of beating them.

Eugenics: Wanting to kill 80% of the population on earth is BAD.
GMOs: Having Monsanto screw around the genetic code of our food supply is BAD.
Chemtrails: Putting Aluminium and Barium in the air is BAD.
Fluoride: Putting Fluoride and 100 chemicals in our water supply is BAD.
Money: Handing over the issue of currencies to the Federal Reserve is BAD.
Police: Having a police state grid ready for the American people is BAD.
Oil: Having a small group of globalists dictate the price is BAD.
Terror: Having false flag staged terror attacks is BAD.
Satan: Siding with the devil is BAD.

Loving your neighbour is GOOD.
Eating organic food is GOOD.
Cleansing your body from chemicals is GOOD.
Having a sound money system is GOOD.
Having the police protect the weak is GOOD.
Having a fair price for products is GOOD.
Having peace is GOOD.
Having Jesus-Christ as your saviour and model is GOOD.

Of course Al-Qaeda is 100% pentagon with a little help from their friends. The pentagon is the military force command center of the world. Why else would they have their nose under the tent of the middle east. And Obama being commander and chief means he leads the Al-Qaeda charge. When you ‘educate yourself’ the pieces come together. The Al-Qaeda is a pentagon/CIA creation and they have been feeding them gasoline now and since it’s creation like a fire that is burning out of control. Fear is their aphrodisiac and the tool they use is Al-Qaeda and the rest of us are just non-important casualties/fools.

Sadly, with headlines like this, AJ will NEVER advance any farther with his Media efforts or following than he had right now. The worst thing is, there is alot of truth to this, but to make a blanket statement like this is official company policy at Langley is insane. It isn’t like the CIA has been bloodless in all of this. The Al Qaeda fighters CIA is supposedly running as agents have managed to do some real heavy damage in blood to CIA Officers in at least a couple very high profile operations in Afghanistan against them.

So…. The ‘CIA controlled’ fighters are fighting their CIA controllers, and murdering agents in cheap ambushes is that it? Well if that is the case, then the CIA is in a far greater disarray then I’d been led to believe.

Additionally, it makes no sense that the Pentagon would, as an institution, follow anything like this policy. They are taking it right in the shorts FAR WORSE than any other organization on Earth from these Jihadi fighters. Now we’re supposed to accept that the Pentagon as a whole is actually running their own worst and most lethal enemy? C’mon…. It’s laughable, but that doesn’t mean it passes the laugh test.

I’d suggest the MAJORITY of CIA and MAJORITY of the Pentagon are as in the dark about the larger game being played here as the public. I’d mentioned this in the comments for THIS story last night when it was briefly run on the front page before apparently going back down to re-post this morning.

There is TOO much here that simply doesn’t make sense. We’re watching a wide variety of things that simple don’t track or appear at all logical under either the Official story or even the more creative conspiracy theories. This leads me to believe that there are VERY LARGE moving parts involved in what we’re watching happen here and we (the public) can’t even make out the vague shapes yet. It’s like the scientists detecting planets in Deep Space. They never SEE the planet they find, they simply see the effects of it’s passing. It feels very similar. We can’t see what powers are busy behind the scenes, but evidence of their existence and passage is unmistakable.

I agree Wrabbit. There isn’t definitive proof that CIA = al-Qaeda. All the evidence that CIA = al-Qaeda is anecdotal. Did CIA help al-Qaeda get started? Yes. That is fact. But, that doesn’t preclude al-Qaeda from ‘evolving’ into it’s own separate organization that carries forward some of the traits of it’s progenitor(s). It seems to me that there is likely an up-stream connection that handles both. And, maybe “handles” isn’t the right word. “Manipulates” is probably a better word at this point. It is obvious that there is some higher form of command that manipulates world powers.

I don’t know if the power centralization is focused in one person… or group of people. I am suspicious that the source of all of this revolves around banking/corporate interests that use whatever means to convince people to buy their product or ideology. Greed is the central focus of power. When greedy people get together, there doesn’t need to be a conscious “grand end-game conspiracy” among them that they are executing in a long series of planned events with a single end-goal… No, greed will ‘naturally’ drive them in that direction. Greed will always create a grand conspiracy because it has a common root in evil. And as scripture says, the enemy has always been about “steal[ing], kill[ing], and destroy[ing]“.

Whenever some says they are “EX Military” they classify themselves in the same category as a Charles Whitman or Lee Harvey Oswald. Both are “EX Marines”. Those who served in the US Armed forces and served with honor are classified as “Prior Military” members.

The “EX” is indicative as the same description concerning divorce. Any one who served, took the “oath”. Any one that “divorces” themselves from that oath is a Traitor”. Any one who obeys an unlawful order is a criminal and anyone who identifies themselves with communism is a communist. (obama falls into these descriptions)

Along with many others at this forum, we are classified as “Prior” US Military members that served with honor and were discharged with that same honor. DD Form 214.

“To defend this Nation against all enemies foreign and domestic”

For those who never served due to physical limitations, you are exempt. For that who could have served this nation, but refused due to cowardice, you can thank the countless Americans that gave up all their tomorrows for all of your “scared shit-less” ones.
For those who refused to served based on some type of belief that everything about the US military was corrupt, you can thank those who perished to preserve your rights to be nothing but the stupid cowardly bastards you are. Their lives bought you your freedoms. Courtesy of any and all US Patriots that laid it all on the line.

Label me however you wish, but remember that you are talking to a medaled veteran that was shacking up in Khobar towers just two weeks before they were bombed.

To Ex Military. I never “presume”, I state facts based on evidence.

John Malvo, C. Whitman and Lee Oswald were not classified as “Additional Skill Identifiers”. Neither were they classified as 0321 Marine Force Recon Scout Snipers. Oswald was a radio tech stationed in Japan. . Whitman was a rifleman with the Corp before leaving early. Malvo was a machinist and combat engineer. Hence the term “sniper” was added to their names to make sheeple afraid of those who are in fact qualified snipers. Lets not confuse ignorance with stupidity. (I could then expound on what I mean, but it will be nothing but hot air… inflated oration… that puffs up the heart.)

You aren’t the only one to loose friends in combat or to be decorated. I served also (72-76)

Do not ASSume. Read what “EX’ depicts. Then, ask yourself if you are “EX”. Did those friends you lost, die in vain? You decide. No one tells you who you are, least of all me. You classified yourself as “EX”, not me.
What my post states is the truth. Whether you accept it as such or not is immaterial. The only “EX” military personnel are those that have brought disgrace to themselves, their units and to the US Military. “EX” used in the context of “EX” Military defined: Page 472 Fist column Websters New 3rd college Edition.

Their lives bought you your freedoms. Courtesy of any and all US Patriots that laid it all on the line.”

I refused to serve because the service is immoral. I’m a devout Christian. I know that’s foreign to you, but it means something to others and Christ. Serving the NWO while wearing an American uniform makes you no hero. You didn’t fight for our freedom or independence. Any claim to the contrary is simply a lie.

I don’t have the information before me on what war you fought in, but anything in the last 60 years has been nothing more than a giant game of Risk where you’re a pawn occupying some territory on our map of global resources we’ve snatched from 3rd world nations on behalf of elite banking familes and at the profit of the military industrial complex. Since you did not object to being used as such a pawn, you are a traitor and continue to be so as long as you believe the lie and recite it as some perverse boast of manhood.

If your limited intellectual ability is unable to comprehend of what I speak, then I am truly sorry for you. Years of being ordered around and not questioning what you’re doing is caused you some major arrested development. I don’t thank you for your service in humiliating America by helping to attack small, rather defenseless countries. I don’t thank you for working to help bankrupt America for the profiteering of the military industrial complex.

If you want true respect, act like a real American. Reject the standing armies, the boasting of immoral acts and encouraging respect for the military that no longer belongs to America but to the U.N., NATO or whatever special interest group de jour. If you want to join the resistance then we’ll be glad to have you. If you don’t, then fine, but expect to be rdiculed as a fool.

You know nothing about me. Thats why you justify your cowardice with your posts hiding behind you own beliefs. Many good men and women who lost their lives in the defense of this Nation were Christians. Take a good look should you ever pass by a military grave site. There are crosses and stars of Davis as well as others buried there so that you can justify your cowardice. We are through talking, you and I. You have nothing to say to me that would be of any interest or be useful in what this nation is about to face.

Don’t be “sorry” for me, be sorry for yourself. If you truly believed in the garbage drivel you just posted, you would have no need to “explain” yourself. You too, ASSume too much. That is to be expected from idiots like you. Heres a quarter, call some one who cares. I don’t. You represent another set of print hardly worth the time to read.

I respect and admire many of your views, however, to hold up non-military service as a sign of cowardice is ignorant. People can have a variety of reasons for not serving like physical ailments (i.e. scoliosis) or simply never having that feeling of being called to duty (had other things to do, call it following ones intuition). By your standards we should have Israeli style mandatory draft. You have an obvious chip on your shoulder.

And many, many military active or ex personnel I have encountered, although I show them a great deal of respect, come across as control freaks and you seem no different in this regard. Since this seems to be a condition of military “training,” I am quite glad I never served for my own personal reasons, cowardice certainly not being one of them.

Finally, if you think you served a free nation, IMHO you are somewhat deluded as the USA has been a covert corporate fascist nation posing as free since at least 1913, when the federal reserve act became faux law. Since the American Revolution was TRULY fought over fiat money, NOT TAXES, this law flies in the face of the entire reason for declaring our independence and becoming a free nation for a brief time of about 100 years.

Isn’t there a song, “Onward Christian Soldier” ??! True, our military is being used to conquer. I’ve been saying all along that our military was hijacked 20 years ago and is primarily used for regime change. I still remember a U.S. Navy spokesperson (for the Pentagon) telling us in clear, concise English that the “non-integrating gap” countries would be invaded unless they came onboard (read: ONLINE) with the Illuminati/NWO. But normally, serving in the military doesn’t clash with Christian values unless you’re killing in Iraq, still today, with there no longer being any uniformed enemy combatants.

People can have a variety of reasons for not serving like physical ailments (i.e. scoliosis) or simply never having that feeling of being called to duty (had other things to do, call it following ones intuition).

“Feelings” have nothing to do with it when it comes to “giving back” for those who sacrificed everything to keep this nation free. “Selflessness verves selfishness”.
Your reasons are flawed. You may have the opportunity to explain your “feelings” one day to those who shall rule over you. In the event that “feelings” over ride ones duty to God, family and country, then to hell with “feelings”.

I am thankful that when the TPTB unleash their fury on the citizens of the USA, I will have the honor and privilege of fighting along side those with a like mind who shall not run at the sound of the first shot fired. “American by birth, Southern by the grace of God”.

Sorry if my personal take on things tends to annoy you in particular. The fact of the matter is, what stories I don’t put a msg on, someone else certainly does, and it’s normally one of about 3-4 people who are about as active as I am and seem to run their circuit of various websites at around the same time frames I do.

Now aside from the volume of my posting here recently, which I’d already given thought to earlier today and well before you mentioned something, I really don’t care either way what you think of my opinions or how I choose to toss them out with everyone else’s.

I post this as a rough creative consideration of a possibility of what may be taking place these days.
We have a world of disconnected pieces in which if put together may just solve the finished puzzle that is still as of yet beyond perception, but with more and more of the facts coming forth and made available to us we may fortunately bring into existence the hidden picture that presently is a mirage for the millions. So bear with me as I posit my theory.

A New World Order is totally impossible.
So why is there a full speed race on the part of the FED to waste away the American dollar into nothingness, unless it’s to bring into being a newly named better and improved brand new form of money under the auspices of FED#2.
When FED#1
s contract runs out as it’s supposed to on the 100th year, that year being the end of 2012, next year, it’s that close. So the FED wants to burn up all that it has to bankrupt the first 100 year contract and end it with nothing. Yet, the FED#1 will have taken all that it has left in its reserves to place it on the holdings of the newly named, newly printed currency whatever that currency will be named or called under the new newly established 100 year contract with the FED#2.
Washington will need to settle this important issue immediately, to save itself from a total fiscal collapse, so they will acquiesce to the wishes of FED#2, or create one of their own making, of which FED#1 will buy over and take full control of with their previous holdings and reserves anyways, so in essence any new set up will in the long run be called FED#2, just like a juggler playing a pea shell game.
This is why they’ve created so many calamities all over the world, and especially with the markets being placed into jeopardy with many markets hanging by a thread. This also explains the wars and revolutions taking place all throughout the Middle East too. It’s purposefully been developed to create mass chaos, so no one will notice the transition taking place, nor even care about it.
The noise will be deafening over the air waves for the next two years with violence and hunger and poverty and war all meant to disrupt the system to such an extent, that passage of the changing of the FED will go completely unnoticed and very likely unreported as most of the media are already in on the deal. There will be no opposition if any at all, as too many activities will be taking place from too many political levels for any serious financial concerns to be addressed. It’s at that moment that the world will be told all fiscal problems have been solved through an agreement to initiate a new global currency with a new name that all other currencies will be gaged against. The fraudulent takeover and criminally planned undertaking will proceed unabated with full support and the largest heist ever will have been made complete.
At least this to me is how it seems to be going right now.
Should the money trust win this war of control, the first few years will seem wonderful as they once again now with a global control, tighten the noose.

Very well said. One of the best ways to fight back is to become as self sustaining as possible and boycott as many NWO corporations as possible. Seek out and support local food sources and boycott Apple, Google (Use StartPage.com), Walmart, etc.

Boycotting can save a lot of $$ too which is becoming ever more crucial. One of the most important boycotts is to steer clear of the carpetbagger Big Pharma “ALL VARIETIES OF SIDE EFFECTS” poison peddling white coats who shant be trusted with anything much beyond stitches. Use your common sense here, like if you break an arm, of course go to the hospital, but they can shove the slash/burn/poison faux cancer treatments – if natural cures don’t work for me, fine, I die, so what, must have been my time.

Do you REALLY need that expensive Android or whatever gadget? Prepaid cell phone costs $20 a month.

I have just ordered a dial up modem so I can cancel expensive cable – no more 100 channels of trash. I will soon mostly use a new landline phone and the modem I ordered can take calls while still on the Internet. I’m a little concerned about speed – anxious to compare. If this works, I will only charge my prepaid cell when and if I travel. Wondering if I will be somewhat insulated from Internet kill switch nonsense with dial up. Will get netflix for some entertainment, but since I save $20 from not needing to charge my prepaid, that pays for netflix AND the dial up service, quest landline is kinda steep @ $40 a month in my area, but my net savings is still $30/month from cable and I get to watch what I want via netflix instead of 100 channels of trash and propaganda.

You will neither retain American views nor sensible ones at this rate, Mr. Jones.

I just saw on ‘Faux’News’ . They were laughing about the “crazy ghadafi” -his advisers think there is a Conspiracy by the West, to Divide the country..

What you won;t see on these so called News Networks, is that Gaddafi was about to Nationalize the country’s Oil Reserve’s (some of the purist in the world) Make British and American Oil Company’s pay an additional fee -to get back some money his people lost during NATO sanctions imposed on the country- due to the lokerbie bombings. And they won’t tell you that the locerbie bombing was really the C.I.A. -
Why? the CIA? because “Good” agents of the CIA and FBI where on that plane taking a suitecase full of HEROIN (as evidence) to trace back to the HEROIN smuggling network the CIA had set up…
no more investigators, no more evidence.. case closed.
Back to the subject at hand.. of course Al-Qaeda is the CIA’s SPOOK program

Join the club. I can’t say that I have actually lost friendships over discussing some of these topics, but I attribute that only to a sense of when to drop the subject entirely. It took me a few years of listening to Rollye James, Rusty Humprheis, Alex Jones and yes, Glenn Beck, to even get enough background to overcome a lifetime’s education and conditioning that said anything like this was just insane crazy talk. I’ve certainly found myself forgetting that important detail when sharing what I believe about, say, the facts of 9/11 that just don’t add up as they should. Starting just THAT basic premise is a dangerous social experiment in some crowds eh?

Capn… All I can say is what I have always said when someone looks utterly perplexed or in a state of total disbelief at something I’ve said from these general subjects. Don’t believe me. Don’t believe Alex, Glenn or the others. I’m serious… Don’t believe ANYTHING you hear or read. Period. Ever. Only when MULTIPLE sources you feel have been reliable in the past all tend to agree on the same set of facts, is it really safe to believe something. Personally, I wouldn’t even go that far on many topics. I personally maintain and constantly update a bookmark selection running north of 300 sites, at any given moment, that I use as references to backstop and verify everything I read and about 90% of what I type. The only way I know to be confident I’m not falling for a line of BS or sharing misleading or worthless opinions out of my butt. Even that effort leaves me hanging out and swining in the wind once in awhile.

Just my opnion and thoughts from years upon years of blogging, chat room involvement and general life experience in a world gone totally mad.

If you are smarter and better informed than Alex and his top-shelf editorial staff, then why don’t you start your OWN radio show and network?

And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you’re going to fall
Tell them a hookah smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call

Call Alice
When she was just small

When the men on the chessboard
Get up and tell you where to go
And you’ve just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving low

Go ask Alice
I think she’ll know

When logic and proportion
Have fallen sloppy dead
And the White Knight is talking backwards
And the Red Queen’s “off with her head!”

Remember what the dormouse said:

Great points. I have found it only takes about ten minutes of watching MSM propaganda TV to see exactly what they are up to – Glenn Beck was all about framing Akmabinobad as the Anti-Christ today, so war with Iran is probably imminent.

Also, they were showing boohoo family members of some American dual citizen Syrian CIA spy who was arrested by Syrian govt for instigating “terrorism?” or I guess “lawful rebellion” since he is NWO. His mother was shown all tear jerked up claiming he wasn’t a spy as she was obviously clueless. Syrians have every right to string this CIA NWO lackey up high for all to see as a traitor to Syria.

They were making a big to do about GE making billions in profits and not paying one red cent in taxes – I guess this is to get attention off of Obama’s most recent dictator actions.

There is no Al-Qaeda”.” The word Al-Qaeda means “The Base”. In Arabic there is no word for “Data” so when the CIA and the Saudi government joined forces to support the Mujahedin in Afghanistan during the 1980s they created a database of allied Mujahedin groups in Afghanistan called “Al-Qaeda”. There is no COBRA organization out there being hunted and thwarted by GI Joe. It’s just a convenient list of OLD names and locations of former allies who were expendable and easy to turn in to bogeymen.

What does Obama mean by even suggesting, “we must always measure our interests against the need for action?” Why not, we must always measure our interests against the interests of others?
The way in which Obama’s statement has been constructed, creates a false predicate from which a further false argument i.e., on “the need for action,” may be pursued. The point is, other people deserve to have their own interests, even if it does preclude a plunder of their resources. Word crafting & a manipulation of language correlates with an engineering of perception.

Was there Radical Islam before Al-Qaeda-Big yes- see Muslim Brotherhood which AJ mentions as the source! That said the CIA/MI6/MOSSAD etc were used to take these loose tribal groups & bring them military training & weapons & funding. The CIA/Pentagon then use this New Well formed terror group as a persistent threat which we must fight. Alex stated WRABBIT was correct when he over simplified that Al-Qaeda members are ALL in on it same for our military.
But how can you argue against the documentation of the Pentagon bringing in Anwar Al-Awlaki for wining & dining just a couple month’s after 9/11? This guy was CHOSEN to be the NEW front man for Al-Qaeda because he speaks perfect English (no need for translators) well trained & knows the drill well. Now like both Alex & Webster stated Al-Qaeda is now being used as freedom fighters for now but after Ghadaffi is toppled they will once again be used as a terrorist threat we will NEED to keep troops in Libya to keep in check-It NEVER ends

The War on Terror has to be the biggest lie in history with The War on Drugs as a very close second. If you add in indoctrination, vaccination, chemtrails, convenience abortions, forced abortions and rampant bombing of brown people in MENA countries, what they REALLY meant was The War on Children.

The notion that 9 billion peeps is too many for earth is a bunch of horseshit. The only reason 9 billion seems to be too many is the NWO created artificial scarcity. Artificial scarcity created by hording high tech and actively suppressing common sense self sustainability that would make earth a literal utopia for ALL 9 billion++ so the corporate fascists can maintain their food, energy and medicine hedge-monies. F*cking sick greedy mass murderers.

I declare the War on Central Banksters is the LAST War we’ll ever need.

Welcome to the violent world of Mr. Hopey Changey

By John Pilger

When Britain lost control of Egypt in 1956, Prime Minister Anthony Eden said he wanted the nationalist president Gamal Abdel Nasser "destroyed… murdered… I don’t give a damn if there’s anarchy and chaos in Egypt". Those insolent Arabs, Winston Churchill had urged in 1951, should be driven "into the gutter from which they should never have emerged". 

 

The language of colonialism may have been modified; the spirit and the hypocrisy are unchanged. A new imperial phase is unfolding in direct response to the Arab uprising that began in January and has shocked Washington and Europe, causing an Eden-style panic. The loss of the Egyptian tyrant Mubarak was grievous, though not irretrievable; an American-backed counter-revolution is under way as the military regime in Cairo is seduced with new bribes and power shifting from the street to political groups that did not initiate the revolution. The western aim, as ever, is to stop authentic democracy and reclaim control. 

 

Libya is the immediate opportunity. The Nato attack on Libya, with the UN Security Council assigned to mandate a bogus "no fly zone" to "protect civilians", is strikingly similar to the final destruction of Yugoslavia in 1999. There was no UN cover for the bombing of Serbia and the "rescue" of Kosovo, yet the propaganda echoes today. Like Slobodan Milosevic, Muammar Gaddafi is a "new Hitler", plotting "genocide" against his people. There is no evidence of this, as there was no genocide in Kosovo. In Libya there is a tribal civil war; and the armed uprising against Gaddafi has long been appropriated by the Americans, French and British, their planes attacking residential Tripoli with uranium-tipped missiles and the submarine HMS Triumph firing Tomahawk missiles, a repeat of the "shock and awe" in Iraq that left thousands of civilians dead and maimed. As in Iraq, the victims, which include countless incinerated Libyan army conscripts, are media unpeople. 

 

In the "rebel" east, the terrorising and killing of black African immigrants is not news. On 22 May, a rare piece in the Washington Post described the repression, lawlessness and death squads in the "liberated zones" just as visiting EU foreign policy chief, Catherine Ashton, declared she had found only "great aspirations" and "leadership qualities". In demonstrating these qualities, Mustafa Abdel Jalil, the "rebel leader" and Gaddafi’s justice minister until February, pledged, "Our friends... will have the best opportunity in future contracts with Libya." The east holds most of Libya’s oil, the greatest reserves in Africa. In March the rebels, with expert foreign guidance, "transferred" to Benghazi the Libyan Central Bank, a wholly owned state institution. This is unprecedented. Meanwhile, the US and the EU "froze" almost US$100 billion in Libyan funds, "the largest sum ever blocked", according to official statements. It is the biggest bank robbery in history.

 

The French elite are enthusiastic robbers and bombers. Nicholas Sarkozy’s imperial design is for a French-dominated Mediterranean Union (UM), which would allow France to "return" to its former colonies in North Africa and profit from privileged investment and cheap labour. Gaddafi described the Sarkozy plan as "an insult" that was "taking us for fools". The Merkel government in Berlin agreed, fearing its old foe would diminish Germany in the EU, and abstained in the Security Council vote on Libya.

 

Like the attack on Yugoslavia and the charade of Milosevic’s trial, the International Criminal Court is being used by the US, France and Britain to prosecute Gaddafi while his repeated offers of a ceasefire are ignored. Gaddafi is a Bad Arab. David Cameron’s government and its verbose top general want to eliminate this Bad Arab, like the Obama administration killed a famously Bad Arab in Pakistan recently. The crown prince of Bahrain, on the other hand, is a Good Arab. On 19 May, he was warmly welcomed to Britain by Cameron with a photo-call on the steps of 10 Downing Street. In March, the same crown prince slaughtered unarmed protestors and allowed Saudi forces to crush his country’s democracy movement.  The Obama administration has rewarded Saudi Arabia, one of the most repressive regimes on earth, with a $US60 billion arms deal, the biggest in US history. The Saudis have the most oil. They are the Best Arabs.

 

The assault on Libya, a crime under the Nuremberg standard, is Britain’s 46th military "intervention" in the Middle East since 1945. Like its imperial partners, Britain’s goal is to control Africa’s oil. Cameron is not Anthony Eden, but almost. Same school. Same values. In the media-pack, the words colonialism and imperialism are no longer used, so that the cynical and the credulous can celebrate state violence in its more palatable form. 

 

And as "Mr. Hopey Changey" (the name that Ted Rall, the great American cartoonist, gives Barack Obama), is fawned upon by the British elite and launches another insufferable presidential campaign, the Anglo-American reign of terror proceeds in Afghanistan and elsewhere, with the murder of people by unmanned drones - a US/Israel innovation, embraced by Obama. For the record, on a scorecard of imposed misery, from secret trials and prisons and the hounding of whistleblowers and the criminalising of dissent to the incarceration and impoverishment of his own people, mostly black people, Obama is as bad as George W. Bush.

 

The Palestinians understand all this. As their young people courageously face the violence of Israel’s blood-racism, carrying the keys of their grandparents’ stolen homes, they are not even included in Mr. Hopey Changey’s list of peoples in the Middle East whose liberation is long overdue. What the oppressed need, he said on 19 May, is a dose of "America’s interests [that] are essential to them". He insults us all.

A challenge and opportunity in Middle East

AIJAZ ZAKA SYED

If the Islamists are to sustain the gains they have made across the region, they must go beyond rhetoric
Patrick Buchanan is one of those few writers I never like to miss. Having worked as a senior adviser to three US presidents, Buchanan has had a rare, ringside view of history. Six of his 10 books including The Death of the West, Where the Right Went Wrong, and more recently, Suicide of a Superpower have been New York Times bestsellers.
I like Buchanan’s writings for their unsparing, sweeping view of history. He tries to divine the future in the light of the past. Despite being an old-fashioned Conservative, he has his feet on the ground. He was one of those few voices on the right that attacked America’s indefensible wars.
In his latest piece in the American Conservative, Buchanan argues that the biggest winner this year is Islam. In the article titled, Second Period of Islamic Power, Buchanan says: “From Morocco to Pakistan, a great awakening is occurring. The most dramatic example of Islam rising again came in Egypt, with the fall of the 60-year-old military dictatorship. The West hailed the coming of democracy but democracy delivered a rude shock. In the first round of voting, over 60 percent of ballots were for the Muslim Brotherhood or the radical Islamist Nour Party. In the second round, 75 percent voted Islamist. In Tunis and Tripoli, too, the overthrow of autocrats revealed a silent majority sympathetic to Islamism.”
Buchanan talks of an alarming “Islamist awakening” around the world, from China’s largest province Xinjiang that was once part of the Ottoman caliphate to Russia’s simmering Muslim regions of Dagestan and Ingushetia. He rues the fact that in Iraq and Afghanistan, Americans are in retreat and “Islamists are celebrating our eviction.” The Conservative pundit is alarmed by the growing Muslim numbers around the world, including in Europe, pointing out that Islam has already overtaken Catholics as the world’s biggest religion with 48 UN member states now boasting a Muslim majority. “If demography is destiny, the future would seem to belong to Islam,” concludes the two-time Republican presidential hopeful. 
While these observations are familiar and need no elaboration, what really interests me is the subsequent question raised by Buchanan. That is, can this Islamic resurgence sustain itself without an intellectual and political infrastructure and real tangible steps underpinning it? “Take away oil and gas, and from Algeria to Iran these nations would have little to offer the world,” he points out questioning if Islamism really owns the future of Muslim world.
It’s not possible to dispute Buchanan’s facts of course. While the Muslims have never had it so good in economic terms with enormous financial and natural resources being at their disposal, their contribution and leadership on the world stage is indeed limited. Not one university from a Muslim country figures in the top 50 or 100 — strange for a people who set up the world’s first university. Not one Muslim nation is part of the top 10 economic powers. The entire Muslim world put together cannot hold a candle to countries like China, Japan or South Korea in industrial production.
This is the reality today no matter how we choose to explain it in socio-political and historical terms. Even Islam’s detractors including Buchanan acknowledge that the Islamic civilization ruled the roost for a thousand years, from 7th to 17th century, and had been far ahead of the rest of the world in many ways. Indeed, the Industrial Revolution was built on the scientific advances and groundwork done by the Muslims.
But that was the past. What about today and what about tomorrow? You cannot go on living in the past and rest on your laurels forever. Of course, I don’t share Buchanan’s skepticism about the Arab Spring and the future of Islamic world. The juggernaut of change on the march across the Middle East is the best thing to have happened in a long, long time and it’s unstoppable.
After decades and centuries of tyranny and colonial exploitation, the people are finally taking charge of their destiny. The stunning victories of the Islamists, from Egypt to Tunisia to Morocco, that have horrified the West and its allies shouldn’t really come as a surprise to anyone. People are only returning to their natural self, repressed and shackled as it was all these years. Religion may have been banished in the West but it remains an essential part and the heart and soul of Muslim societies. Look at the decisive mandate Egyptian and Tunisian Islamists have received. This is a vote for change and a rejection of all those ideas and individuals superimposed on the Middle East all these years.
However, while these winds of change across the region have created an extraordinary opportunity for the Islamists, they have also generated great expectations and incurable hopes. History would be most unforgiving of those who flunk this opportunity. People are desperate for change and a change for the better. And the Middle East’s new crop of leaders cannot afford to let them down.
There’s no dearth of naysayers and Cassandras out there, including those who have aided and perpetuated the status quo all these years, waiting with bated breath for the Islamists to crash or make a fool of themselves. They have persuaded themselves that this blessed season of change is too good to last. Doubtless, these are testing times. One reckless step could undo all the good work. 
The belief that Islam offers all the answers is not just a construct and conviction of the Islamists. It’s the unshakable belief of an overwhelming majority. However, this isn’t enough. You have to build intellectual and political institutions and infrastructure, and equally important, evolve public opinion to support the utopia inspired by Islam.
The much cited example of Turkey’s Islamists led by Recep Tayyip Erdogan, easily the tallest leader since Ataturk, is indeed most invigorating. Even Youssef Al-Qaradawi, the Qatar-based Islamic scholar named by many Arabs and Islamists as a spiritual guide for their revolutions, is all praise for the Turkish model. But it took decades of hard work for Turkey to get where it finds itself today. The country that acts as a bridge between the East and West literally has blended Islamic ideals and values with pragmatism and demands of a fast changing world.
Turkey today isn’t just a vibrant, modern nation proud of its beliefs and identity, it’s marching with confidence on all fronts.  Even in these troubled times, it has maintained the amazing pace of its economic growth. More important, the country that under the Ottomans led the Muslim world for centuries has demonstrated how Islam could be uplifting and liberating and beautiful in practice. There are invaluable lessons for Arabs in Turkey, the first Muslim country to support those demanding freedom from tyranny, from Tunisia to Egypt to Syria. 
Meanwhile there’s bad news for all those hoping of the Arab Spring turning into an endless winter for the Middle East.  The Arab Spring is here to stay and it looks like it’s not just going to change the Middle East but the world beyond — from New York to Moscow to New Delhi.
