bismi-lLahi-rRahmani-rRahiem In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful === News Update === Danish paper rejected Jesus cartoons Jyllands-Posten, the Danish newspaper that first published the cartoons of the prophet Muhammad that have caused a storm of protest throughout the Islamic world, refused to run drawings lampooning Jesus Christ, it has emerged today. This ends the claim that this is a free-speech issue. http://www.guardian.co.uk/international/story/0,,1703501,00.html === Europe's Defamation of the Prophet Indeed the only freedom of speech left in the west is bashing Islam otherwise it does have its limits. In Europe you can be prosecuted for questioning the extant of the Holocaust or criticizing Israels policy given western indoctrination that such freedom is Anti-Semitic. Israel and its bloody history is now the Holy Grail for the civilized west, the champions of human rights. http://usa.mediamonitors.net/content/view/full/26484 === Intended Insults: Unintended Consequences On 31 January, Carsten Juste, editor-in-chief of Jyllands-Posten, published an open letter to Muslims saying he was sorry that Muslims took offence from the cartoons (which his cultural editor had commissioned for the express purpose of causing offence). In that caricature of an apology he did not admit that the paper had done anything wrong. Rather he blamed the Muslims' poor understanding of the Danish culture for their getting so upset. Then he wondered, as did many media pundits, why Muslims were not buying his apology. http://www.albalagh.net/current_affairs/0086.shtml === When Freedom of Expression Becomes a Weapon Our news sources informed us that due solely to these images outrage sweeps across the Muslim world. Such coverage has elicited miles of text and a Babel of blather denouncing those who would dare threaten OUR freedom of speech because it offends THEIR backward beliefs http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article11790.htm === The misplaced defense of free speech Now how well do Danes know their cultural past, if the thoughts of their finest thinker sound alien to them today? And are Muslims to be blamed if Westerners have themselves allowed the commerce of decadent capitalism to make them forget some of best features of their intellectual heritage? For myself, the "free speech" defense for the cartoons rings hollow coming at a time when historians are being thrown in prison for questioning the history of WW2. http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Middle_East/HB07Ak03.html === Neo-cons use Denmark as their latest tool to bring about the "Clash of Civilizations" Denmark is at the center of the ongoing neo-con plot to bring about a bloody military confrontation between the West and Islam. This "Clash of Civilizations" is a hallmark of the neo-con philosophy and is most exemplified in the writings of Prof. Samuel Huntington and Daniel Pipes. http://mparent7777.livejournal.com/6178526.html#cutid1 === Cartoon protests turn deadly From Afghanistan to Indonesia, tens of thousands of Muslims around the world have launched a series of new protests -- some violent -- over cartoons depicting Prophet Mohammed. Now, who benefits of Christians and Muslims kill each other off? http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/asiapcf/02/06/cartoon.protests/index.html === 9/11: Hilter's Rise to Power, a Mini History Read the Article below. Just do some mental substitutions with recent historical events and what happened in Germany. (For example the 9/11 attack could substitute for the Reichstag terrorist case.) The Germans gave up their civil liberties to allow the government to protect them against Communist Terrorists. It is interesting that following the importation of German scientists of Project Paperclip, the US began to wage the cold war against Germany's old boogeymaen: Communist. And now our big boogeymen are terrorist. http://www.choicechanges.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=316 === News Release Issued by the International Secretariat of Amnesty International Guantánamo: A life sentence of suffering and stigmatization In a new report published today, Amnesty International revealed how the US detention centre at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba is condemning thousands across the world to a life of suffering, torment and stigmatization.

When I saw that the neoconservative response to 9/11 was to turn a war against stateless terrorism into military attacks on Muslim states, I realized that the Bush administration was committing a strategic blunder with open-ended disastrous consequences for the US that, in the end, would destroy Bush, the Republican Party, and the conservative movement. http://www.counterpunch.org/roberts02062006.html === Bushs Tyranny for a Bankrupt Nation The Bush master-plan is no different than the economic shock-therapy the United States has directed at the third world for decades. The strategy is simple and straightforward, but virtually foolproof in achieving its objectives; the crushing of the middle class and the subsequent shifting of the nations wealth to the oligarchy of racketeers who run the system. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article11798.htm === No Bravery A nation blind to their disgrace - A must watch 4 minute video http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article11799.htm === Powell's Former Chief of Staff Says Pre-War Intelligence a 'Hoax" "I participated in a hoax on the American people, the international community, and the United Nations Security Council," says Wilkerson. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article11797.htm === The gullibility that led us into the last war could yet bring us a new conflict Our leaders were never trustworthy, yet many people were only too willing to believe them - and they may do so again The day after Colin Powell did his show-and-tell before the United Nations security council in an attempt to prove that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, in February 2003, the late Washington Post columnist Mary McGrory wrote a column entitled "I'm persuaded". Describing how Vietnam "came close to making me [a pacifist]", McGrory conceded that "nobody I know was for the war". But something about Powell's performance made her reconsider: "I don't know how the United Nations felt about Colin Powell's 'J'accuse' speech against Saddam Hussein. I can only say that he persuaded me, and I was as tough as France to convince." http://www.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,,1702935,00.html === Defense and Support Committee of President Saddam Hussein, his Comrades and all P.o.W.s and Detainees in Iraq http://www.albasrah.net/ar_articles_2006/0206/isnad_050206.htm === Revealed: secret plan to keep UK troops permanently in Iraq BRITAIN is laying secret plans to maintain a permanent military presence in Iraq. http://scotlandonsunday.scotsman.com/politics.cfm?id=183752006 === Little Testimony Ties Saddam to Crackdown After four months and 26 witnesses, prosecutors in the Saddam Hussein trial have offered little credible testimony directly linking the former leader to the killings and torture for which he's charged. http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory?id=1580531 === Iraqi Detainee Dies in Abu Ghraib Prison http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060206/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iraq_detainees === Pentagon Asks for $439.3 Billion Budget, Not Counting Iraq and Afghanistan http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20060206/pl_afp/usmilitarybudget === Gonzales Defends Domestic Spying, Blasts Media http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11199689/ === Danish Soldiers Come Under Attack in Iraq http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200602/s1563622.htm === Iraqi Resistance Report for events of Sunday, 5 February 2006 * Bomb targets puppet National Guard patrol in al-Fallujah * Resistance bomb leaves three US troops reported dead east of al-Hadithah. * Resistance fighters assassinate deputy director of notorious Abu Ghurayb prison camp. * US launches wave of frantic arrests in Mosul Sunday evening. * Puppet deputy director of prisons in al-Basrah assassinated. * Resistance fires rockets into Green Zone, Resistance bomb rips through puppet Shock Troop patrol in Baghdad al-Jadidah * Resistance bombards joint US-Iraqi puppet army base in Samarra * Three US troops wounded in bomb attack northwest of ad-Duluiyah * Resistance bomb blasts US column near Tikrit * Resistance car bomb blasts puppet police patrol in al-Madain * Bomb blasts puppet police in al-Yusufiyah * Resistance bomb blasts British tank south of al-Basrah Saturday night http://www.albasrah.net/en_articles_2006/0206/iraqiresistancereport_050206.htm === Worlds apart Israelis have always been horrified at the idea of parallels between their country, a democracy risen from the ashes of genocide, and the racist system that ruled the old South Africa. Yet even within Israel itself, accusations persist that the web of controls affecting every aspect of Palestinian life bears a disturbing resemblance to apartheid.

They both claimed that this act represented war against the Castro regime. Seventy-three civilian passengers and crew members died. http://www.rprogreso.com/index.php?progreso=Landau&otherweek= === -muslim voice- ______________________________________ BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------ Yahoo!
