    MUSLIM SCHOLAR GROUP TO ISSUE FATWA AGAINST TERROR
    An American-based organization of Muslim scholars is issuing a formal ruling, or fatwa, condemning terrorism and forbidding Muslims from cooperating in any way with those who perpetrate terror. The Fiqh Council of North America is an association of Islamic scholars that interprets Islamic law for American Muslims. As a formal opinion of religious law, the fatwa goes beyond any statements condemning terror that have been issued by (…)

    “Religious killing shows man at his most depraved; for in this act he destroys the beauty of his dream by pretending to divine power” (My Brother Death, Sulzberger, Carl).
    Mahmoud Asgari, 16, and Ayaz Marhoni, 18, were hanged publicly on July 19, 2005 in the city of Mashhad, Iran. http://www.beirut.indymedia.org/ar/2005/07/2999.shtml

    The Price of Victory
    by Wayne Besen
    Relentlessly promoting God in the public square is the centerpiece of the right wing’s dangerous political agenda. They fight to have The 10 Commandments placed in courthouses. Public schools are considered a battlefield for restoring sectarian prayer and teaching creationism. Congress is now an institution that often sounds more like a Pentecostal church than the seat of secular government.
    When defending their actions in the exploitation of Terri (…)

    Christians spreading the truth about September 11th
    It was an inside job, and allowed to happen as a pretext to get the people behind the war.

    Muslims Are Condemning Terror, But Who’s Listening? Linda Heard July 26, 2005
    While discussing last week’s terror attacks on CNN, Sen. Dianne Feinstein appeared to heap blame on Muslim clerics, urging them to issue “fatwa after fatwa denouncing jihad and denouncing terror”. She claimed that mosques have become “enablers” with few leading imams “if any”, saying, “Enough of this. Stop! This is not Islam.” No doubt, Feinstein is well-intentioned but she is also, unfortunately, grossly (…)

    Zach Vs. Pat
    by Wayne Besen
    In May, 16-year old Zach told his fundamentalist Christian parents that he is gay. Horrified by the news, they vowed to fix him by sending him to an "ex-gay" boot camp in Memphis to be reprogrammed. Like a modern day message in a bottle, Zach used his Internet blog to send an SOS. Miraculously, his desperate plea for help washed up on the shores of sanity and circulated in cyberspace at warp speed.
    "I told my parents I was gay," he wrote. "This didn’t go (…)

    Mr. Tancredo statement is most radical, irresponsible and it shows how some extremist USA politicians think about the Islamic (…)

    News Advisory:
    The debate continues between the Zionists, give up the settlements or not.
    "The world should be aware that this is not a Jewish problem, this is a Zionist problem only, "said Rabbi Yisroel Weiss, because the State of "Israel" is not a Jewish state but a Zionist state.
