US Muslim Congressman likens Bush to Hitler

  Keith Ellison

The first Muslim Congressman in the United States has compared President George W Bush to Adolf Hitler, and hinted that he had a role to play in precipitating 9/11.Addressing a gathering of atheists in his home state of Minnesota, Democrat Keith Ellison compared the 9/11 atrocities to the destruction of the Reichstag, the German parliament, in 1933.

“It’s almost like the Reichstag fire, kind of reminds me of that. After the Reichstag was burned, they blamed the Communists for it, and it put the leader [Hitler] of that country in a position where he could basically have authority to do whatever he wanted,” The Telegraph quoted Ellison, as saying.

Ellison said he would not accuse the Bush Administration of planning 9/11 because “you know, that’s how they put you in the nut-ball box – dismiss you”.

A convert to Islam, who was previously linked to the extremist Nation of Islam, Ellison, 42, has cultivated a moderate image since being elected last November, concentrating on issues such as health and education. He is also an outspoken critic of the war in Iraq, and wants an immediate withdrawal of US troops from that country.

Terrorism USA-style 1980s (Video)

First we arm them, then we shoot
them down.

Twenty-five year ago, Bush Sr.
illegally armed Iran and directed
the profits from the sales to terrorist
operations in Central America.

A little history for the under 30
crowd…and some nostalgia for
folks who remember when these things
were shocking enough to merit
Congressional hearings.

George Bush Sr. operated a secret government while a senile Ronald Reagan dozed and coasted on his Hollywood presentation skills.Yet when the Iran-Contra scandal broke, Reagan and others took the heat, while George Sr. remained safely in the shadows.Shameless, contemptuous of the law, and masterful liars…many of the members of the Bush Sr. support term manage things today behind the scenes for Junior.

Ron Paul: U.S. In “Great Danger” Of Staged Terror

Presidential candidate Ron Paul says the U.S. is in “great danger” of a staged terror attack or a Gulf of Tonkin style provocation while also warning that a major collapse of the American economy is on the horizon and could be precipitated by the bombing of Iran and the closure of the Persian Gulf.
Speaking to The Alex Jones Show, the Texas Congressman was asked his opinion on Cindy Sheehan’s recent comments that the U.S. is in danger of a staged terror attack or a Gulf of Tonkin style provocation that will validate the Neo-Con agenda and lead to the implementation of the infrastructure of martial law that Bush recently signed into law via executive order, as well as public pronouncements from prominent officials that the West needs terrorism to save a doomed foreign policy.
“I think we’re in great danger of it,” responded the Congressman, “We’re in danger in many ways, the attack on our civil liberties here at home, the foreign policy that’s in shambles and our obligations overseas and commitment which endangers our troops and our national defense.”

“Every day we’re in worse shape and right now there’s an orchestrated effort to blame the Iranians for everything that’s gone wrong in Iraq and we’re quite concerned that the attack will be on Iran and that will jeopardize so many more of our troops, so I would say that we’re in much greater danger than we even were four or five years ago,” asserted Paul.
The presidential candidate expressed his despair that the situation in Iraq will not change until there is a total collapse of the American economy.
“There’s no way we can afford what we’re doing, whether it’s domestic spending or the international spending and very few people talk about the real cost of this economically speaking….this is unsustainable and it will be a threat to our dollar,” said Paul, adding that the onset of the meltdown could be sparked by the bombing of Iran and the closure of the Persian Gulf.

The Congressman added that the collapse was in its early stages with the major indication being a reduction in the living standard of middle class Americans but that “one single major world event” could change things overnight and precipitate a major downturn.
Paul added that there had “not been a national discussion on monetary policy in many many years” and the increasingly bleak outlook for the U.S. economy was also bringing more attention to the solutions the Congressman has proposed for reducing the burden of the mammoth national deficit.

Paul said that national and world events, especially the degrading situation in Iraq, were attracting support for his presidential campaign due to his resolute position on embracing a non-interventionist foreign policy.
The Congressman concluded by surmising that record lows in approval ratings for Bush, Cheney and Congress showed that, “The American people are alive and well and disgusted yet they haven’t had good alternatives….it’s justifiable, they are looking for true answers and options and quite frankly I think that’s probably one of the reasons why our campaign is growing by leaps and bounds right now.”

Fear in Sri Lanka’s Muslim communities (Video)

In one eastern province of Sri Lanka, around 50,000 Muslims live in a small village of only one and a half square kilometres. It’s one of the most densely populated Muslim areas in the world. Aljazeera’s Tony Birtley visited Kattan-kudi – and a neighbouring village known as Saddam Hussein, where he found people living in constant fear of more violence.

Watch the following video to see how Muslims in Sri Lanka have suffered ethnic cleansing, massacres and forced displacement and how their life has become a living hell:

Danish Muslim group loses libel case over cartoons

A Muslim group lost a libel case yesterday against the leader of a Danish anti-immigrant party who had accused its members of treason.

A court ruled that Pia Kjaersgaard, leader of the Danish People’s Party (DPP), did not libel the Islamic Faith Community when she accused some of its members of treason for traveling to the Middle East to publicize a Danish newspaper’s publication of controversial drawings depicting Prophet Muhammad (peace be up on him), which caused a worldwide uproar in 2006.
The court said the term “treason” was not libelous because it was used extensively in public debate. It ordered the plaintiffs, a loose network of Danish Muslim organizations which says it represents 50,000 members, to pay Kjaersgaard $7,400 in costs.
In September 2005, the newspaper Jyllands-Posten published 12 cartoons which were later reprinted elsewhere and provoked outrage among Muslims. Three Danish embassies were attacked and at least 50 people were killed in rioting in the Middle East and Asia.

 “We are very disappointed with the verdict and are considering an appeal,” said Kasem Ahmad, a spokesman for the Muslim group.
He added that the group would issue a fatwa (religious edict) against Jyllands-Posten if it did not receive an apology from the paper. “It’s too early to say any details of the fatwa,” Ahmad said. “The fatwa is the last step and will also satisfy Muslims in the Middle East.”

Over 450 embrace Islam at Saudi health care centers in 2006

Over 450 non-Muslims working in local hospitals and medical centers supervised by Saudi Arabia’s Health Ministry have embraced Islam in the past year, thanks to the efforts of the Islamic Guidance Department, the Health Ministry announced.

Employees working for the Islamic Guidance Department visited 235,000 patients last year and distributed 67,000 gifts to special care patients in various parts of the Kingdom. In addition, the department distributed 1.5 million Arabic booklets for patients and visitors at hospitals and health care centers. Another 48,000 booklets were printed in English for non-Arab readers.
The Islamic Guidance Department was established in 2001. Officials in the department coordinate with the Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Guidance and Endowment and the Supreme Council of Islamic Scholars. Among its several missions is to illustrate to non-Muslims working in the health sector the noble teachings of Islam. It also creates awareness among Muslims about cleanliness and shows disabled and sick people the method of performing prayers.

Officials from the department also visit critically ill patients, encouraging them to keep faith and maintain high spirits. The department also arranges symposiums on religious topics for health employees.

Polish President has Been Accused by Important Catholic Priest of Being a Corrupt and Fraudulent Pawn of the Jewish Lobby

A POLISH priest and broadcaster has branded the country’s president a “fraudster” who is in the pockets of a Jewish lobby, and described the first lady as a “witch”, according to a news magazine.

Wprost, one of Poland’s most respected publications, claims it has obtained a recording of Father Tadeusz Rydzyk in a scathing attack on the president, Lech Kaczynski, and his wife, Maria.

The magazine says Fr Rydzyk vented his fury at a closed-door conference in the city of Torun. In particular, he savaged the president for apparently caving in to pressure from Jewish groups seeking compensation for property seized by Poland’s Communist regime after the Second World War.

“You know what this is about: Poland giving [the Jews] $65 billion. They will come to you and say, ‘Give me your coat. Take off your trousers. Give me your shoes’,” the magazine quotes Fr Rydzyk as saying. He also apparently suggests that Mrs Kaczynski, whom he describes as a witch, should experience euthanasia because of her support for limited abortion rights.

Fr Rydzyk, the founder and head of Radio Maryja, a popular, conservative and nationalistic radio station, who also runs a TV station and a newspaper, called Wprost’s story a “provocation” and said his words had been taken out of context.

But he did add, however, that “the truth must be told even if it irritates Satan”, which has been seen as an indication that the recording is credible.

The magazine, in turn, says it has verified the authenticity of the recording and stands by it.

Although Mr Kaczynski did not comment, a presidential aide said: “If this recording is genuine, it’s absolutely scandalous.”

A criminal prosecutor has announced that he will investigate the authenticity of the recording, and, if verified, the priest could find himself in court. Under Polish law, insulting the president is a criminal offence.

The controversy is a severe embarrassment to Poland’s ruling coalition. The government has always sought strong relations with Fr Rydzyk and his media empire as a means of courting Poland’s arch-Catholic and nationalistic voters.

The station claims to have three million regular listeners, and its deeply conservative and nationalistic message has dovetailed with a government eager to position itself as a protector of morals and the Polish nation.

Cabinet ministers are regular guests, and on Sunday, Mr Kaczynski’s twin brother, Jaroslaw, the prime minister, was among 150,000 at a ceremony to mark the station’s 15th anniversary.

The controversy will further blacken the reputation of Radio Maryja, which has attracted frequent accusations of xenophobia and antisemitism.

All 9/11 Airports Serviced by One Israeli Owned Company

It’s one of those times when an innocuous comment in an unrelated news report triggers a revelation.In the article at http://afrocubaweb.com/news/israelispying.htm there is the following paragraph:

“To make the situation worse, a private security company called ICTS, owned by an Israeli, Ezra Harel, and registered in the Netherlands, was employed at Charles de Gaulle airport to screen passengers boarding US planes. Most of its personnel are ex-Shin Bet officers. The company covers security at Boston’s Logan airport, where the American Airlines plane came down after flight attendants and passengers overpowered Reid.”

The point of the article was that ICTS knew shoe bomber Richard Reid was dangerous, but allowed him on board a flight from Tel Aviv to Paris. Maybe they did and maybe they didn’t. But the idea that an Israeli owned company had inside access to the airport used to launch an abortive terror attack brought to mind the strange message Odigo Systems, another Israeli owned company with offices near the World Trade Towers, received that warned of the impending attacks before the hijacked planes had even left the ground.

So, I went back to another story that had surfaced briefly, reported at www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=26626 about how at least one hijacker had smuggled a GUN aboard one of the hijacked planes. Even prior to 9-11, getting a gun on board a passenger plane represented a serious lapse of security. I wondered why this story of a gun was being concealed behind talk of box cutters and screwdrivers.

Islam a Religion of Peace, Says Most Britons

The majority of Britons still view Islam positively as a religion of peace despite the adverse publicity following recent failed car bombing in London and at Glasgow airport, according to a new survey published Thursday.

But the poll, conducted by the public theology think-tank, Theos, also found that the attempted attacks had given religion in general and Islam in particular a bad name.

Overall, the personal view of 60 per cent of respondents was fundamentally a religion of peace. In Scotland, the figure was 69 per cent and among AB social classes 67 per cent.

This compared with only 17 per cent overall, and 7 per cent in Scotland, who believed it was a religion of “war which sits uneasily with modern Western culture.”

Iraqi Foreign Minister warns of a “civil war” if U.S. troops leave? So what does he call what is going on in Iraq now?

Insurgency and sectarian violence raged the Iraqi capital on Monday while Iraqi foreign minister warned of a civil war if the U.S. troops make a quick withdrawal from Iraq.

On the ground, a series of car bombs, roadside bombs and gunfire killed 32 Iraqis and wounded 73 others, most of them in Baghdad on Monday.

Meanwhile, the U.S. military said that one of its soldiers was killed and three others wounded in a suicide car bomb attack in west of Baghdad.

The attack took place on Sunday when the suicide car bomber struck a U.S. patrol during combat operations in the area, a military statement said.
