Bismillah [IslamCity] 7 Israeli tanks destroyed, one helicopter downed 11 soldiers killed
7 IDF tanks destroyed, one helicopter downed and 11 IDF soldiers killed GAZA, (PIC)-- The Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, said on Sunday night that its fighters killed 11 IOF soldiers and wounded 48 others since the start of the land offensive 24 hours ago. The sources said that five soldiers were killed on Saturday night and six others were killed on Sunday, amongst them an officer with the rank of Colonel. The Israeli occupation admitted to only one soldier being killed and 30 others wounded. Meanwhile, Abu Ahmad, the spokesman of the Quds Brigades, the armed wing of the Islamic Jihad, said that Palestinian resistance factions managed to destroy seven IOF tanks int eh Zaitoun neighbourhood of Gaza City, pointing out that the invading troops fell in many ambushes carefully prepared by the Palestinian resistance. Abu Ahmad added that the battle has not started yet as there are thousands of resistance fighters waiting for the invading forces. The Qassam Brigades, for its part, said that its fighters destroyed two IOF tanks using B-29 anti-armour rockets. Furthermore, the Qassam Brigades, said on Sunday morning that its fighters managed to hit an Israeli helicopter. This was confirmed by Dizzi Rizova, the correspondent of the Bulgarian daily telegraph telling al-Jazeera.net that she saw the pilot parachuting, adding that he was not wearing paratroopers uniform which means he bailed out of the aircraft. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=af0_1231188955

By allowing users to report independently on war crimes, War Crimes TV is exposing the ugly truth of war crimes. This week, Jean-Baptiste Mattei, France's ambassador to the United Nations in Geneva, says both sides, in the conflict of the Democratic Republic of Congo, are carrying out executions and torture in the east of the country. He called on both the government and the rebels to stop the violence. War crimes, which include genocide or the mistreatment of prisoners of war, are unlawful acts committed during a war and considered in violation of the conventions of warfare.

Bismillah [IslamCity] The Sincere Muslim Intellectual
ABDUL WAHID OSMAN BELAL --- On Thu, 1/1/09, Qaisar Latif qaisarla...@googlemail.com wrote: From: Qaisar Latif qaisarla...@googlemail.com Subject: The Sincere Muslim Intellectual To: Qaisar Latif qaisarla...@googlemail.com Date: Thursday, 1 January, 2009, 10:54 PM The Sincere Muslim Intellectual R. DAVID COOLIDGE http://www.islamicamagazine.com/issue-20/the-sincere-muslim-intellectual.html Actions are only judged by the intentions which accompany them. This phrase is repeated in mosques and classrooms across the world, and is found in books too numerable to document. At first thought, we might assume that its meaning is obvious and that it is essential to how people think of Islam. However, concepts understood intellectually do not always translate into states of being, which in turn give life to those very concepts. Such is the case in many of the intellectual discussions on Islam that pervade our lives. Perhaps if you grew up in a country or house devoid of intellectualism, you might protest out of fear that I am decrying intellectualism. This would be a fair response. But for those of us, many in North America and Europe, who are stimulated by discussion after discussion and book after book, the situation is often radically different. Rachid al-Ghannouchi reportedly said that Tunisians in Tunis need human rights, while Tunisians in France need mosques. Different points of emphasis for different folks. What I have felt in the core of my being is the fact that I can never know with absolute certainty when I am speaking or writing or teaching or reading for the sake of Allah alone. I can distinguish tasks, such as when I am reading Qur'an for my own benefit or when I am writing an academic paper for the acceptance of my teacher, but I can never truly know what Allah thinks of how I spend my time and energy. I seek the assistance and advice of those who I feel are pious and intelligent and learned, attempting to shade my moral responsibility under the nasihah (advice) of others, but I know that there is no shade except the shade of Allah. I make istikharah (supplication for guidance) in search of Allah's decision, but I can never be totally sure of the outcome. Yet around me, I see people rushing to be heard, rushing to speak, and rushing to lead. Am I better for taking it slow? Are they better for having the drive to act? I can never know. I do know that Allah will debase the scholar who speaks for his own vainglory, and will honor the one who writes and teaches and learns for His sake alone. Also, I know that the complexity of our lives demands sophisticated intellectual discourse. The mind constructs or deconstructs, and the heart becomes darkened or enlightened. Allah is the One in control. Perhaps you might object to the insinuation that I might be able to know the intentions of others. This too would be fair. I speak from my experience, and all I can say in my defense is that if I have felt it, and struggled with it, then it must be a reality for others. But even more than that, this struggle has been documented in the works of some of the greatest Muslims who have ever lived. If they felt it too, then at least I know that I am in good company. The pragmatist says, I need a job, or You have to get ahead, or You have to have your voice heard, or Things are pressing and there is no time for reflection, but that always rings hollow to me. Perhaps I am wrong or spoiled or out of touch. Perhaps not. At the end of the day, which is death, perhaps our works will be accepted. Perhaps not. I fear standing before the Lord of the Worlds and being told, You wrote this article to be praised by the people, and I hope to be told, Peace for you now, no more need to worry. You did fine. Even in writing this article, I may be betraying that which the article intends to promote. But the fear of punishment cannot override the urge to act when one can reasonably justify the action as righteous, and when one has also sincerely attempted to be sincere. For almost a decade, I have contemplated publishing something: Islamic theories on religion, critiques of secular historiography, personal conversion narratives, theoretical perspectives on the nature of subjectivity in intellectual traditions that strive for objectivity, and so on. But something has always held me back. I can only hope that this preliminary attempt is timely and acceptable in the eyes of Allah. If Imams al-Nawawi and al-Bukhari thought it appropriate to begin with the hadith of sincerity, then who am I to begin from a different angle? This is a struggle we all must face in the core of our souls, and it cannot be avoided. It is immensely hard, but it must be done. Whether one is a graduate student, a professor, a murid (disciple), a talib al-'ilm (student of knowledge), a shaykh, a transnational Muslim intellectual, or whatever, we must face this challenge. If we ignore it and assume we are fine, then we are lost. Of that I am certain, and God

Bismillah [IslamCity] Hadith :If you supplicate for others, Angels will suplicate for you
Hadith : If you supplicate for others Angels will suplicate for you Abud-Darda' (Radhiallaho anha) reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) saying, Whenever a Muslim supplicates for his (Muslim) brother in his absence, the angels say: `May the same be for you too'.'' [Muslim] Commentary: This Hadith makes it evident that one who prays for someone in his absence also stands to benefit from it because the angel appointed for the task of praying for those who pray for others will pray for him, saying, O Allah! Grant him also the same which he has asked for others.'' Please forward this Hadith to your relatives friends and may Allah SWT reward you.

Bismillah [IslamCity] The road to Gaza
who does still need any enemies ? The road to Gaza passes by Cairo and The tunnels towards liberation start in Gaza . Beirut has its (our) Sayyed ready like a lion and Damascus has its Lion waiting to be called Sayyed . Riyadh and Kuwait have rich-Camels riding on selfish-Bedouins and Rabat is not better,,, The roads to Gaza leads us to Jerusalem but Jerusalem is sold by Abbas If Baghdad were still standing on its feet Gaza would not be attacked, today. The destruction of Gaza started by the hanging of President Saddam and the Pharaoh of Cairo knows that, so he closed his eyes and his doors. Raja Chemayel the third day in 2008 the third day of 2008
Re: Bismillah [IslamCity] UAE Lauches 2008 Sister's Leadership Program for Americans
[image: DOCTORS' FORUM] IIP, Asif Plaza I Block Fazl-e-Haq Road Blue Area Islamabad 44000 Pakistan Phone: 051-2875585, 03335129849 * * * * *PRESS RELEASE * * * *Saturday, January 03, 2009*** * * A funeral prayer was held in Pakistan's largest Masjid i.e. Faisal Masjid for the Shuhadha (Martyrs) of Falasteen. Thousands of Muslims prayed right after Fard Jummah Prayer in the Faisal Masjid for over 400 innocent children, women and men who were gunned down by the one and only Terrorist of the world i.e. Israel. The Israel of course has many of its puppies and puppets including India, USA, UK, France and Russia etc as well as terrorist agencies and organizations like Mossad, Shabak, RAW, KGB, CIA, FBI, MI 5, MQM, Qadyanis (600 of who are working in Israeli army), Daroozis, Bahahi etc. etc. who carry out various terrorist attacks and blame Islam and Muslims. Doctors' Forum (DF) in collaboration with Movement for Justice Merit (MJM) had requested and urged all Pakistani Muslims to hold peaceful demonstrations against Israeli and Indian Terrorist after Jummah Prayers outside major Masajid throughout Pakistan. DF MJM strongly condemned Israeli terrorism against the genuinely elected Hamas Government. Its siege of Gaza and blind attacks on Gaza strip killing about 500 innocent human beings; mostly women and children is highly deplorable and shows the world who is the real terrorist!. From 9/11 to Mumbai attacks are all handiwork of Racist Zionists and Brahmins. Both terrorists share many things in common e.g. cow worshiping, extreme racism, blatant lies. DF MJM requested all Imams of Masajid to deliver Khutbas on the current issues of Muslim Ummah particularly against Israeli terrorism in Palestine and Indian aggression and occupation of Kashmir, Juna Gar and Hyderabad Dakkan etc. DF MJM assured Pakistan armed forces that doctors and paramedical staff as well as other people from all walks will fight gorilla war again India along side with armed forces. The war will Insha Allah end only after dismantling Brahmin Empire which has deprived Delits, Christians, Muslims and Sikhs as well women of their genuine rights. DF MJM requested all Pakistanis to get ready for protracted war against India and its agents in case India attacks Pakistan. DF MJM requested Pakistan armed forces to stop supplying the weapons and other things to NATO which are in fact being used against Pakistanis. All armed forces must be withdrawn from WANA areas and employed against Pak Indian borders. All Colleges and Universities must start imparting military training to all Pakistanis like Israel is imparting training to its citizens. DF MJM requested all Pakistanis to learn Quranic Arabic and get connected with Allah Ta'lah through holding His rope i.e. Quran firmly and tightly and not letting ourselves divided. It is also important to correct the institute of Salah or prayers. It has to be an active and alive two way communication. DF MJM urged all Pakistanis to Forward these message to your friends. The editors should write editorial against open Israeli aggression which is reminiscent of Shatilla and Sabira camps where 3500 innocent women and children were massacred by Israelis on 16-18th September 1982. Subsequently 9/11, 2002 was created to suppress the Muslim protest against Shatila Sabira campl. 9/11 was created only five days before the candle light vigils in New York, London, Paris and Sydney. Many Doctors from PIMS, Students and other highly educated people demonstrated against Israel and India right after Jummah Salah outside Faisal Masjid. They were carrying the placards with slogans of condemnation of Israeli and Indian Global and State Terrorism and showing solidarity with the people of Falasteen. They saluted the democratically elected Government of Hamas and condemned the Bahai puppet of Israel i.e. Mehmood Abbas. The demonstrators chanted the slogans and declared Allah's total supremacy over all things and force by the thunderous sounds of Allaho Akbar i.e. the God is the Greatest. DF MJM requested all peace loving people to totally boycott Israeli and Zionist products and do every thing possible against Zionist designs including shunning all vulgarities, interest based transactions, too much indulgence in materialism and wasting time. By holding fast the rope of Allah i.e. Quran Muslims will be directly connected with Allah Ta'lah. There is a dire need to inject Quran in the veins of Muslims and correct the Salah which would provide required strength and tranquility. DF and MJM noted that while Muslims treated Jews exceptionally well in Spain, the Zionists used Christians to ignite crusades and later converted many Masajid in Spain in Synagogues. DF MJM offered Full Medical Help to the thousands of innocent victims of Racist Zionists who consider all Non Jews as talking animals whose killing is kosher to them. Alas such fabricated teachings of Talmud will not provide any rescue them from hell
Bismillah [IslamCity] Safar al-Hawali: What Our Sisters Can Do for Palestine
Safar al-Hawali: What Our Sisters Can Do for Palestine Q: The situation of our patient, struggling Palestinian sister under the tyranny of those known for treachery and deception - may Allah fight them - makes us truly sad. In fact, it is an extreme disaster for us, as their honor has been violated, their families have been destroyed, and their daughters tortured and exposed. Despite this, they continue to carry upon their shoulders the responsibility of standing on this frontline of the frontlines of Islam against the Zionist enemy. In fact, they also carry the responsibility of raising a generation - rather, generations - of sons and daughters to continue the struggle. So, what is our obligation towards these oppressed women? How can we stand by them on this front and assist them in various ways while simultaneously admitting to our major shortcomings in this? And Allah is the source of help... A: The Muslim nation is one that is oppressed everywhere in the world, and the burden of this oppression that falls on its men falls even heavier on its women. In fact, the burden on women is generally greater, as she is prone to weakness by her nature from one direction, as well as from the pressures of family from another. So, she was not designed to withstand this subjugation, imprisonment, oppression, or long period of struggle as men are. Despite this, she is rewarded for her patience with Allah. And our obligation is without a doubt great. Every man is obligated to realize that he has brothers there, and every woman is obligated to realize that she has sisters there. We must come to feel the reality of the brotherhood of faith and that we are like a single body, such that if one limb complains, the rest of the body rushes to heal it. So, the believers are brothers, as Allah mentioned, and our enemy is one. The one who ate the white bull today is the same one who will eat the red bull tomorrow, and the black one the day after. In fact, he might eat them all tomorrow. So, it is not allowed for us to remain the way our enemies want us to be, and what they want is for every community to be busy only with its own problems and concerns, and to have every community busy with its desires or efforts to acquire more wealth. Our communities are of two types: one type that simply works to make more money, and another that is busy with its desires and wasting of time. Both are extremely dangerous, and distract us from paying attention to fulfilling our obligations towards our brotherhood of faith. Our sisters are afflicted with things that make one's body shiver in the blessed, patient, struggling land of Palestine, as well as Iraq, Afghanistan, Kashmir, the Philippines, Eritrea, Somalia, Chechnya, Bosnia, and many other regions. In fact, this oppression even takes place in countries that claim to be free. So, in France - which some refer to as the place from which light emerges and shines over the rest of the world, and Paris is the Capitol of Light, etc. - its secularism, freedom, and human rights have become so constricted despite these empty slogans. They have become constricted around a piece of cloth with which the Muslim woman covers her hair, and this proves that this nation is truly being tested in order for Allah to purify its ranks and to elevate its status. Therefore, we are facing a test in which we must have practical solutions, and it is not enough to simply cry and grieve and be sad and pained. For example, my sisters, I advise every sister who has a job - even if both spouses work, or they have a sufficient income or job, as the obligation would be greater in such a case - to support a single Palestinian family, and to then turn to the other countries to find out how we can provide them with relief efforts, and how we can fulfill our obligation of sending them beneficial books, tapes, and efforts, as well as the hijab. There are many girls in the nearby Arab countries who would wear the hijab if only they could afford it... Every family in this country that Allah has blessed - and we praise Allah for these blessings - should take one family or child and support it. As I mentioned, my noble sister, our sisters over there have provided the greatest examples. There does not exist a mother in the world that possesses the characteristics of resistance, defiance, and patience as the Palestinian mother does, and the Iraqi mother is on the same road, thanks to Allah and His Guidance. They are demonstrating the most amazing defiance! This is a clear confirmation that the religion of Muhammad (صلى الله عليه و سلم) is dominating and victorious, and that Allah has control over His affair except that most people do not realize this, and that the good end will be for this nation by Allah's leave, as well as the defiance of these sisters. The sister who is forced to give birth on the side of the road, the sister who is killed, the sister who is
Bismillah [IslamCity] FBI Finds no Pakistan Link to Mumbai
- Original Message - From: Mahmudul Hasan FBI Finds no Pakistan Link to Mumbai By Aamir Latif, IOL Correspondent Indian claims the Mumbai attackers were Pakistanis and had some links to Pakistani security agencies. (Mumbai) ISLAMABAD — America's Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) have found no link between attacks on India's financial hub of Mumbai and Pakistani intelligence agencies, US and Pakistan officials have confirmed. The FBI team thinks, on the basis of evidence and meetings with Pakistani intelligence officials, that neither is Ajmal Kasab a Pakistani citizen nor have Pakistani agencies any involvement in the Mumbai attacks, a US embassy official told IslamOnlne.net. The confirmation came after an FBI team visited Faridkot, a small village some 200 kilometers south of Lahore, said to be of Kasab, the only surviving gunman. A five-member FBI team, headed by William Robert, the agency's director for South Asia, visited Faridkot two days back, according to a US embassy source. At least 172 people were killed when ten gunmen attacked two five-star hotels, a hospital, a popular cafe, a railway station, and a Jewish center in Mumbai last month. India claims Kasab and the other nine attackers are all Pakistanis and blame the attack on Lashkar-e-Taiba (LT), an outlawed Pakistani group fighting Indian rule in Muslim-majority Kashmir. Interior Minister Rehman Malik has denied that FBI agents have visited Faridkot. No such visit is in my knowledge. But the report was confirmed by a senior Pakistani interior ministry official. The FBI has established this fact after visiting Faridkot, which is being reported by Indian media as the ancestral town of Ajmal Kasab, and meeting various officials of Pakistani intelligence agencies, he told IOL on condition of anonymity. Indian Proofs US embassy sources said the FBI team has been trying to verify Indian proofs about Pakistani involvement in the attacks. The agents visited India before coming to Pakistan and questioned Kasab for more than nine hours. Indian media reports said the FBI sleuths sought minor details about Kasab’s native village and about his alleged links to the Pakistani intelligence. The team also took DNA samples of the nine slain gunmen to ascertain it matched with anyone in their data bank or had any relations with persons killed by US troops in Afghanistan. Despite concluding that Kasab was no Pakistani, the FBI team did not ruled out possible links between the Mumbai attackers and militants groups in Pakistan. He might have connections with Pakistan-based militant groups, said the US embassy official, referring to the LeT. Pakistan has recently banned the Jammat-ul-Dawa (JD), one of the country's latest charity organizations, over alleged links to LeT. Founded by Hafiz Saeed, a former professor of Islamic studies at University of Engineering Lahore, JD operates hospitals, schools and relief centers across Pakistan. http://www.islamonline.net/servlet/Satellite?c=Article_Ccid=1230650222380pagename=Zone-English-News/NWELayout Ask a question on any topic and get answers from real people.

Bismillah [IslamCity] Yvonne Ridley: PIRATES OF THE MEDITERRANEAN Courtesy:http://www.creative-i.info/?p=3344
Yvonne Ridley: PIRATES OF THE MEDITERRANEAN NOT content with committing war crimes and human rights atrocities in full view of the world, Israel has now confirmed itself as a rogue state by launching into international piracy. The SS Dignity Dawn had not yet broken over the Mediterranean waters in which the SS Dignity was sailing when an Israeli naval gunboat appeared from the inky black and rammed the aid-bearing ship. The act of aggression on a peace mission was launched in international waters 90 miles off Gaza, without any warning to the captain of the Dignity or the crew. Israel claimed the incident was an accident and that its naval officers had made numerous attempts to communicate with the Dignity. It was an accident that was to repeat itself three times. Israeli foreign ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor told one press agency that the naval vessel tried to contact the aid boat by radio for identification and to inform it that it could not enter Gaza. “After the boat did not answer the radio, it sharply veered and the two vessels collided, causing only light damage,” Palmor said. I wonder how many traffic cops around the world have heard that line from a drunken or reckless driver in the wake of a crash. The Israeli spokesman then went on to accuse the international activists of “seeking provocation more than ever.” Isn’t it amazing how Yigal and Co suddenly go belly up and adopt a victim mentality? I wonder how he will react to the news that onboard the ship, among the cargo of much-needed medical supplies and humanitarian aid were TV crew s from CNN and Al Jazeera as well as other media. For goodness sake, the Dignity was on a peace mission, armed with nothing more than humanitarian aid - hardly a match for the tooled up, hi-tech Israeli Navy and its deadly arsenal. Sorry to be so direct, but Palmor is a purveyor of deceit, a liar - and a very unconvincing one at that. You see all sea-faring people know that there is a certain radio channel and frequency which remains open 24 hours a day. I know myself, because the Israeli Navy used that exact same frequency on one of the two Free Gaza boats as they set sail back in August 2008 to break the siege of Gaza by sea. That emergency frequency carried messages of threats and intimidation as clear as a bell. Radio communications were used without any difficulty on the Israeli Navy several times by human rights activists from the Free Gaza Movement warning the gunboats to back off when they fired at Gazan fishermen. The westerners were on the tiny fishing ships to stop the naval bully boys terrorizing the unarmed fishermen. And by the way, what the hell is Israel up to by banning or trying to prevent boats from entering waters not in its territory? This is the Mediterranean. Just when did Israel assume complete authority of the Med? It is also worth pointing out that Dignity was clearly flying the flag of Gibraltar, and was piloted by an English captain with a passenger list including revered politician Cynthia McKinney from the US. The Israeli Government Press Office director was faxed the entire passenger list and press release shortly after Dignity set sail. Cynthia is a former Congresswoman from Georgia, and the 2008 Green Party US presidential candidate. She was traveling to Gaza to assess the ongoing conflict. I know her and I can tell you she is one sassy lady. If the Israel Navy thinks this little incident is going to sink without trace then they truly are in for one rude awakening. After reaching port safely in Lebanon, where thousands greeted the Dignity, Cynthia said: “Israeli patrol boats…tracked us for about 30 minutes…and then all of a sudden they rammed us approximately three times, twice in the front and once in the side…the Israelis indicated that [they felt] we were involved in terrorist activities.” She was joined by another woman of substance, Dr. Elena Theoharous, MP who is a surgeon and a Member of the Cypriot Parliament. She was going to Gaza to assess the ongoing conflict, assist with humanitarian relief efforts, and volunteer in hospitals. Also on board is another good friend of mine, Caoimhe Butterly, an organizer with the Free Gaza Movement. She said: “The gunboats gave us no warning. They came up out of the darkness firing flares and flashing huge floodlights into our faces. We were so shocked that at first we didn’t react. We knew we were well within international waters and supposedly safe from attack. They rammed us three times, hitting the side of the boat hard. We began taking on water and, for a few minutes, we all feared for our lives. After they rammed us, they started screaming at us as we were frantically getting the lifeboats ready and putting on our life jackets. They kept yelling that if we didn’t turn back they would shoot us.” Furthermore, the attack was filmed by the journalists, and crew and passengers and no doubt we will see the full extent of that footage and the damage caused by Israel. Of course

Bismillah [IslamCity] AS HARUN YAHYA HAS STATED, THE TURKISH-ISLAMIC UNION IS THE ONLY POSSIBLE SALVATION FOR PALESTINE AND ISRAEL
ADNAN OKTAR (HARUN YAHYA): I even think that Israel will be able to relax and trade freely and to the fullest extent in the region. There is step by step progress in that direction. I believe this target will be achieved in the near future. They will also find things easier and attain salvation within the Turkish-Islamic Union because Israel will be under the protection of the Turkish-Islamic Union. It will be freed from the problem of terror, from violence. Its walls will be torn down. At the moment, Israel is a kind of prison. It is surrounded by walls on all sides. Those walls will be brought down. Israel will be able to relax and trade with the region with no difficulty. The pressure on it will be lifted. And therefore the pressure that Israel puts on Muslim states, on Muslims countries, will also be lifted. An age of total peace and security will dawn. That is why I can say that the immediate establishment of the Turkish-Islamic Union is the main and foremost question facing the world. (Al Baghdadi TV, August 5, 2008) In his statements on the Palestinian-Israeli problem, Adnan Oktar stresses that the Turkish-Islamic Union is the only way to bring peace and security to the region, and that this will represent salvation, not only for Palestinian Muslims, but also for Israel. Mr. Oktar suggests that both sides treat one another with love and compassion, and says that everyone can live together as brothers in this land, that is sacred to all believers. He stresses that with the foundation of the Turkish-Islamic Union, the union will act as guarantor for everyone and will protect both Israel and Palestine. Mr. Oktar's calls for moderation and love and the path he has shown have begun to have effect. The Palestinian side recently took out a full-page Hebrew announcement in the Israeli press stating that they were on the side of peace and wanted to see the peace plan made a reality straight away. One of the most striking aspects of the announcement was the flags of Muslim countries that decorated its border. The use of the flags of just about all Muslim countries in the announcement shows that the call for peace and brotherhood represents the voice of the whole Turkish-Islamic world and, even more importantly, indicates that the Turkish-Islamic Union is the force that will bring peace to the region. One of the striking aspects of the reports on the subject appearing in the press is that they analyze the way that FOR THE FIRST TIME the Palestinian side has attempted direct dialogue with the Israeli people and the significance of turning to a democratic path. BBC, 20 November 2008 ADNAN OKTAR: You will not be able to recognize the Turkey of the future. It will literally be a regional super-power, as a result of which Israel will be saved, Armenia will be in a better position, Palestine will be in a good position, and Israel will enjoy a peace and security it has never known before in its history. The Palestinian problem will be completely resolved. Turkey is the key to all this. And there is open demand for it. In other words, Iraq also wants it. Iraq in fact wants to unite with Turkey. In the same way, Syria also wants to unite with Turkey and wants Turkish administration. But as separate states, of course. They want Turkey to take over as a spiritual leader. And when Turkey puts it⦠(Kıbrıs Ada TV-August 1, 2008) Porttakal News Portal, 21 November 2008 âLet's make peace' announcement issued Åalom, 26 November 2008 Peace âad' from the Palestinian administration ADNAN OKTAR: Christians are also our brothers. And Jews are our brothers. Armenians and Georgians are all our brothers, because they are all people we took to our bosoms in the Ottoman community of nations, people who served the Ottoman Empire, who served Turkishness. They are people who served Islam and the Qur'an. The greatest craftsmen and artists emerged from among the Armenians, for instance. Or from among the Greeks. Jewish scientists and Jewish artists performed great services and worked in the palaces. But this strife was produced subsequently. The Masons acted quite treacherously, using the corruption of racism, suggesting the supposed existence of hatred and conflict⦠They became unwilling to admit to being Jews. That was a Masonic ruse. But they are the People of the Book and are our brothers. They love the Prophet Abraham. They love Ishmael. And Isaac and Jacob. They believe in the one Allah. We love the same prophets. We love the same angels. And they are all earlier forms of the true faith. They are old true faiths. Islam is of course the last true faith, insha'Allah. But they are also the People of the Book. Allah states that they are the People of the Book in the Qur'an. That is why this hatred and enmity must come to an end. Israel will be as free as possible. Armenia will be free.
