bismi-lLahi-rRahmani-rRahiem In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful === News Update === Forgery Doc: Secret Synagogue Under Al Aqsa There has only ever been one artifact that was claimed to be from the first temple. That was a carved pomegranite that supposedly adorned a religious staff of some kind. Sadly, that turned out to be a forgery. There was also a carved tablet noting repair work done on the first temple, but that too turned out to be a forgery. As of this moment, and despite the extensive excavations underneath Al Aqsa, there is no actual evidence that the First Temple actually existed. http://palestineblogs.com/archives/2006/01/04/secret-synagogue-under-al-aqsa/ === What Does Islam Say about Terrorism? Islam, a religion of mercy, does not permit terrorism. In the Quran, God has said: "God does not forbid you from showing kindness and dealing justly with those who have not fought you about religion and have not driven you out of your homes. God loves just dealers." (Quran, 60:8) The Prophet Muhammad used to prohibit soldiers from killing women and children,1 and he would advise them: {...Do not betray, do not be excessive, do not kill a newborn child.}2 And he also said: {Whoever has killed a person having a treaty with the Muslims shall not smell the fragrance of Paradise, though its fragrance is found for a span of forty years.}3 http://www.islam-guide.com/ch3-11.htm see also: http://www.islam-guide.com/more/#Islam-on-Terrorism === The Crime of Being a Muslim Charity The Treasury Department is playing target practice with American Muslim charities. On Feb. 19 Treasury seized the assets and froze the operations of KindHearts, a Toledo-based humanitarian organization, acting on the dubious allegation that it is financing terrorism. Someone from Treasury once told us, "There are folks here who look at you guys like notches on their belts . . . just waiting to take the next one out." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/03/10/AR2006031001859.html === Non-Muslim Danish students have made a site on the internet to apologize to moslems and asking Muslims to connect with them.

Sen. Joe Lieberman , D-Conn., said he had not read it either and wasnt inclined simply to scold the president. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article12320.htm === Blacks and Jews in Neo-Con America Since I began intensively studying the Israel-Palestine conflict nine years ago, I have (as a Jew) also been concerned with its historical and current effect on relations between Blacks and Jews in this country. I have become increasingly aware of the influence that neoconservatism, both in its domestic and global versions, has had on mainstream (liberal) Jewish institutional life and political culture in America, and the manner in which specifically Jewish-identified aspects of neoconservatism (opposition to the welfare state, support for Israel) have been adapted by a broader culture of white racism and class privilege, with obvious dire effects both domestically and globally. It is clear to me that what began as one aspect of the white ethnic backlash primarily among anti-communist Jewish intellectuals in the 1960s has evolved, been appropriated, and become central to the domestically ruthless and globally violent ideology of the current administration. http://www.counterpunch.org/green03132006.html === The Flawed Rice Doctrine of Transformational Diplomacy and American Global Policy In her January 18, 2006 speech at Georgetown University, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice attracted attention by arguing that U.S. foreign policy would henceforth be shaped by a transformational diplomacy . . . rooted in partnership, not paternalism. Her address was taken by some observers to mean that the neoconservative policy assumptions which have condemned the United States to the tragedy in Iraq and elsewhere were being replaced by a realist perspective taking American policy back to the more constructive days of the partnerships George Marshall and Dean Acheson (whom she singled out for praise in her question-and-answer session), formed with Western Europe and Japan. These partnerships aimed to institutionalize both the rebuilding of those war-devastated partners and the containment of the Soviet Union. http://mparent7777.livejournal.com/6970128.html === Lieberman - not just racist and evil The 2006 elections will go down in Israeli history as the first elections that legitimized ripping the heart out of the Declaration of Independence - the undertaking to "uphold the full social and political equality of all its citizens, without distinction of race, creed or sex." True, Yisrael Beiteinu is not the first party to call for denying Israeli citizens the right to live in the state on the grounds of religion and race. Rehavam Ze'evi's Moledet was in the Knesset and was even a coalition partner in one of the right-wing governments. But Ze'evi was never invited to eat pickled herring at Yossi Beilin's table, and was never showered with a smidgen of the praise bestowed by the Meretz chairman upon Avigdor Lieberman. http://www.haaretzdaily.com/hasen/pages/ShArt.jhtml?itemNo=693297 === -muslim voice- ______________________________________ BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------ Yahoo!
