Bismillah [IslamCity] War and Peace
If Peace would have ever been beneficiary for the State of Israel we would all have had Peace in Middle East since 1949. If the Wars would have been a danger for the State of Israel it would not have planned , provoked and even started them in 1948 ,1956 ,1967 ,(1973), 1982 , 2006. Therefore , please bear in mind that for the Sate of Israel : Peace is the danger and Wars are beneficiary .

Bismillah [IslamCity] Islam: A Religion of Peace by Dr. S.M.M. Ashraf Courtesy:http://www.dawn.com/2008/01/04/ed.htm#4
January 04, 2008 Friday Zilhaj 24, 1428 Islam: a religion of peace By Dr S.M.M. Ashraf ISLAM is a religion of peace and solidarity. It negates all ideas and acts pertaining to gangsterism, cheating, dishonesty, backbiting, foul language, grudge, arrogance, personal enmity, murder and destruction. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) migrated to Medina after patiently enduring the extreme conditions and hostilities in Makkah for 13 years. He performed a noble task of preaching the Message of Allah and finally escaped the torturous enclaves of the non-believers. He laid the foundation of the first ever Islamic state and kept this state clean of all the social and other ills. A society was formed which was based on truth, principles, peace and high moral values. This Islamic state was completely run under the laws of Allah. Very soon the world witnessed that the nomads of Arabia, who lived the lives full of murder, adultery, theft and craftiness, were transformed into persons living a life of exemplary morals and values. There was a lot of emphasis on education during the time of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) as well as during the times of the subsequent four Caliphs of Islam. This is the reason that at the time when the West was completely ignorant and under-developed, the Islamic world was the centre of learning, culture and education. The Muslim way of life was based on brotherhood, love, affection, honesty and compassion. All the above traits come into existence due to the presence of Islam and its teachings. It is true that out of all the scriptures ever sent to the world, the Holy Quran is the only Book which still exists in its original and unadulterated form while all the others have lost their originality and consequently their followers also went astray. Such people formed their own interpretations from those books and fell into adopting social ills in their daily lives. It is quite astonishing to see how conveniently and instantly a persons individual act of terror is linked with Islam. This is a conspiracy and a defamation tactic against Islam. Isnt it a fact that the Islamic schools are much more ancient than the so-called incidents of terrorism during the present times? One will never find any acts of terror in entire history of the Islamic institutions and, therefore, it is important to examine the causes. The subcontinent always had a large number of Islamic schools and hundreds of thousands of Muslim scholars have been offering religious services both within their countries and abroad. It is an open secret that the intelligence agencies constantly monitor the activities of the Islamic schools and the students within such schools. Neither a single known terrorist has ever been arrested from any famous Islamic institution nor has any such institution ever been reported against. As we look into the list of names of the well-known terrorists, we will find that not a single one of them graduated from any Islamic school. Therefore, it is hard to accept that the Islamic schools are the training camps or the breeding grounds of the terrorists. Similarly, all the rest of the big names in terrorism, are graduates of the conventional western universities. Till today, it was generally believed that poverty, illiteracy, economic disparity and violence are the causes of terrorism. However, the current facts have shown that terrorism is directly proportional to the wealth in the family. In other words, the richer the family of a person, greater are the chances of his becoming a high-profile terrorist. One more quite visible fact is that leading terrorists are also quite highly educated and possess very high skills. Whether it is the attack on the World Trade Centre, any other act of terror or the editing of the Al Qaeda audio-video tapes on the internet, all are demonstrations of excellent professional expertise. The London police department has reported about the existence of a gang that wants to play havoc with the western world in the name of the entire world. This gang consists of 45 doctors who are graduates of various prestigious western universities. These doctors are running their network through the internet. An ex-officer of the CIA and an expert on foreign policies, Mark Sagaman, has pointed out in his recent report that at least 63% of all the people involved in the acts of terrorism, are college graduates. Out of these 75% are those who also have professional and post-graduate degrees. Only 13% of such individuals were less educated or uneducated and they did not normally belong to any religious school. It is quite evident that a person from a poor family cannot even dream of entering into a professional or prestigious institution of higher education. For the poor kids, these Islamic schools are the only option where boarding, food and education are free. Here they learn the religion and get

Bismillah [IslamCity] Mike Huckabee, Christian Zionist
Because of Huckabee's win on the Republican side of the Iowa caucuses, reading the following article is worthwhile. Huckabee's proposals amount to ethnic cleansing of Palestine View full size by Rev. Stan Moody*, Christian Policy Institute, December 16, 2007 Orthodox Jews love him. The Christian Right loves him. The LaHayes (authors of the Left Behind series) love him. Tele-Zionist John Hagee loves him. It is not because Gov. Huckabee is not a Mormon that they all love him. It is because his foreign policy as President will be to put the finishing touches on the Bush Doctrine in the Middle East. In a nutshell, Huckabee is a Rapturist. Ill explain. Belief in the Rapture is predominant within Evangelical circles. It has no biblical support except by inference. It finds no place in the early history of the Christian Church and is based primarily on a prophetic interpretation developed in England in the mid 19th Century. Its architect was John Nelson Darby, founder of the Plymouth Brethren movement, a fundamentalist Christian sect that came out of Dublin, Ireland in the 1820s. Darby published some 50 books on his unique interpretations of the New Testament. Darbys doctrine, known as Premillennial Dispensationalism, was expanded in 1909 through the publication of the Scofield Desk Reference Bible, a Bible with extensive footnotes all screened through the lens of two future returns of Jesus to earth. The first return will be in the form of the physical resurrection of all true Christians, who will disappear from the earth in a single moment to join Jesus in the skies. That is referred to as the Rapture. For seven years to follow, the earth will be in a period of Satanic upheaval, building to a final Apocalypse in the Valley of Meggido (Armageddon), whereupon Christ will descend onto the Mount of Olives with His raptured saints, defeat the armies of Satan (including the Roman Catholic Church) and set up a physical throne in Jerusalem to reign for 1,000 years. There have been variations on that theme, but the physical return of Jesus to greater Israel has remained intact. In the US, the Dallas Theological Seminary, the flagship Southern Baptist pastoral training center, has been the breeding ground for the American Rapturist movement. In this scenario, the Jews remain the apple of Gods eye, the land promised to the patriarch Abraham being their inheritance. In the seven-year period of Satanic upheaval (referred to as the Great Tribulation), the land at least from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River must be secured for Israel. Solomons Temple will be rebuilt, 144,000 Jews will be converted to Christ, there will be a bloodbath of monumental proportions, and peace will be restored. Support of Israels expanded borders, therefore, becomes non-negotiable for American Evangelicals who subscribe to this dogma. There is a long history of Evangelicals funding illegal settlements on the West Bank and in Gaza. Recently, Tele-Zionist, John Hagee, has consolidated these cultists into an organization called Christians United for Israel (CUFI), applauded not only by President George W. Bush but by such luminaries as Joe Lieberman, Tom DeLay and Presidential candidate John McCain. Huckabee on Israel and Palestine On October 15, 2007, Huckabee gave a stump speech at the home of New Hampshire State Representative Jason Bedrick, the first Orthodox Jew elected to the New Hampshire House of Representatives.[1] In that speech, he staked out the following: He supports the creation of a Palestinian state He believes that such a state should be formed outside Israel. He suggested Saudi Arabia and Egypt as prospects for such a state, noting that the Arabs have far more land than the Israelis and that it would only be fair for them to give land for a state rather than carving it out of the tiny Israeli state He stands against the creation of a Palestinian capital in East Jerusalem, thus tacitly supporting the seizing of the Temple Mount by Israel, the third most sacred Moslem site in the world He has stood against any pullback of illegal settlements on the Golan Heights and the West Bank.[2] By re-defining the boundaries of Israel to be vastly outside those officially recognized by international law, Huckabee unmasks himself to be a Christian Zionist. By offering a solution not unlike that envisioned by 19th century Americans to the slavery question and carried out against Native Americans, Huckabee essentially dehumanizes the Palestinians and proposes to transport them elsewhere. I accuse him, therefore, of being an advocate for the ethnic cleansing of Palestine. Here is his long-range view: If you are with Jesus Christ, we know how it turns out in the final moment. Ive read the last chapter in the book, and we do end up winning.[3] As an evangelical pastor and theologian,

Bismillah [IslamCity] Re: True Jihad True Islam (Video)
Thanks for sending this John. Good video. The only problem I have was the beginning. Muslims should not be blamed for false flag terrorist operations conducted by our enemies. Even with all the headlines of arrests of Muslims for terrorism, 99% of them are found not guilty as charged and the ones found guilty are guilty only for minor immigration problems. The boogey man about Muslim terrorists is a hoax. What the speaker mentioned in the beginning are things that Muslims are being blamed for but things that I don't believe are being done by Muslims. Iraq is a good example of that and this audio presentation from the Taking Aim show gives a good exposure of that: http://www.box.net/shared/st0mge4ctt John Churchilly [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Folks, Please spare ONLY 5 minutes of your time to see this video..
