| Anatomy of a "Terrorism" Prosecution: Dr. Rafil Dhafir and the Help the Needy Muslim Charity Case -
Katherine Hughes |
| What was the result of Feb 26, 2003 besides imprisoning of innocent people? Scores of innocent elderly American cancer patients died needlessly, innumerable tens of thousands of Iraqi needy (children, women and men) died and more than that suffered malnutrition and the humiliation of poverty. |
| Open Letter: Supporting 'Aafia Siddiqui -
Haytham bin Jawwad al-Haddad |
| It is well known that the War on Terror waged by the United States and its allies led to aggression and injustice against countries, organizations, groups and individuals. Perhaps the worst example of this brutality against individuals was that meted out to our Muslim sister in Islam, Aafia Siddiqui and her three small children.

| The Way Out of Tribulations -
Muhammad Isma'il al-Muqaddam |
| Tribulations will surely take place in the Ummah of Muhammad (sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam) and whatever he said will take place, must surely take place. Therefore, it is incumbent to observe patience in it, prepare for it and be cautious of it. The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam) said, 'Nothing remains of this world except trials and tribulations.' And Hudhayfah (ra) said, 'Tribulations will not harm you so long as you are knowledgeable of your religion, indeed a tribulation will only harm you if Truth and Falsehood become obscure to you.' |
| Sarkozy - The naked truth -
Yvonne Ridley |
| POLITICAL opportunist Nicolas Sarkozy forgot three fundamental lessons when he decided to denounce the burka.
The first one is that men should stay well clear of becoming embroiled in expressing opinions on women’s clothes, unless of course you happen to be called Lacroix, Gaultier, Lagerfeld or Ghesquiere.

| Torture Whitewash From The Dark Side -
Pepe Escobar |
| This whole drama is shaping up as a case of American exceptionalism one cannot believe in. Without accepting full responsibility for torture - and illegal, pre-emptive wars - and without accountability, there can be no catharsis in America. |
| Thoughts on Shaykh Tawfeeq Chowdhury’s Address -
Sheikh Younus Kathrada |
| Shaykh Younus Kathrada's response to the infamous proposal by Tawfique Chowdhary that Muslim scholars and academics are and should be the West's natural ally in her war on terror. |
| Tawfique Chowdary’s Alliance with the West -
Anwar Awlaki |
| A few months ago I was approached by students of Shaykh Tawfique Chowdhury to teach some courses at al Kauthar institute. Since this was the first time I have heard of the institute or Shaykh Chowdhury I did some research on both. |
| Barack Obama, Neocon -
Kurt Nimmo |
| Is it possible an attack launched against Iran is the “test” Joe Biden, Colin Powell, Madelaine Albright and others predict after Obama assumes office? |
| The Muslim World Must Free Itself from this Failing Capitalist System -
Hizb ut-Tahrir |
| The historic events of the past few weeks cannot be overstated. Even the IMF has come to terms that the western financial system is on the brink of meltdown. |
| The Only Good Muslim Is the Anti-Muslim -
M. Junaid Levesque-Alam |
| For American Muslims and progressive allies, both eager to see an end to the vilification of Arabs and Muslims in the United States, Obama’s mantra of hope and change barely set in before it expired. |
| Even I Question the 'Truth' about 9/11 -
Robert Fisk |
| Let me repeat. I am not a conspiracy theorist. Spare me the ravers. Spare me the plots. But like everyone else, I would like to know the full story of 9/11, not least because it was the trigger for the whole lunatic, meretricious "war on terror" which has led us to disaster in Iraq and Afghanistan and in much of the Middle East. |
| It’s Women and Children Now -
Marryam Haleem |
| The case against Aafia Siddiqui, a Pakistani MIT graduate and detainee of the US held for over five years under mysterious circumstances, is finally being made public - and looks to fulfill more in a pattern of dubious evidence and maltreatment in the name of the War on Terror. |
| The Debauchery of American Womanhood: Bikini vs. Burka -
Henry Makow |
| The role of woman is at the heart of any culture. Apart from stealing Arab oil, the impending war in the Middle East is about stripping Arabs of their religion and culture, exchanging the burka for a bikini. |
| Obama Outlines Policy of Endless War -
Bill Van Auken |
| Any misconception that Barack Obama is running in the 2008 election as an “antiwar” candidate should have been cleared up Tuesday in what was billed by the Democratic presidential campaign as a “major speech” on national security and the US war in Iraq. |

| West's Notion of Freedom is an Open License to Vilify Muslims -
Abid Mustafa |
| The West claims that individuals are free to worship whatever deity they choose. But in practice this leads to perpetual conflicts amongst people, as religious beliefs and practices professed by some can be interpreted as offensive and insulting to others. Hence, western governments are constantly intervening in the disputes and resort to legislation to protect the religious rights of some people by depriving others. |
| Ed Hussain - From Ineptitude to Inadequacy -
Karima Hamdan |
| Ex-jihadists seem to be a bit like London buses - there are none for ages and then suddenly three turn up all at once. |
| Teddy Bears, Picnics and other Delusions of Grandeur -
Abu Eesa Niamatullah |
| Ok, so maybe I don’t have anything to say about picnics, but there’s plenty to talk about with respect to some Muslims in the West living in their usual pseudo-megalomanic state - you know, that condition that makes us Muslims living in the non-Muslim lands of ignorance as Defenders of the Faith and the Marjā‘ of Islam for the other 1.5 billion Muslims who live in the…err…Muslim lands. |
| In Defense of the Muslim Sisterhood -
Yvonne Ridley |
| I have a bee in my bonnet – or hijab to be more precise. On an almost daily basis there are horrific stories pouring out of Tunisia about how the state police are ripping off the hijabs of women living there. Some of these women, who are merely fulfilling their religious obligation to wear a hijab, have been assaulted, sexually abused and even locked up in prison by the authorities. Unbelievable when you consider western tourists are topless sunbathing on the coastal resorts, soaking up the Tunisian sun. |
| Reflections on Hatred and the Defamation of the Prophet Muhammad -
Jamaal al-Deen Zarabozo |
| We are living in a time in which the prudent and wise person will think about what he will say or do. It is obviously not a time in which we avoid speaking the truth and working for justice—as that is always a given. However, it is a time for reasonable people to avoid anything that can be used in a negative way to further destabilize the situation and cause senseless harm. |
| Moderate Islam or Effective Subservience -
Abid Ullah Jan |
| Presenting Islam as a religion of peace alone amounts to spreading the biggest misconception of this age.

| The Clash Thesis: A Failing Ideology? -
M Shahid Alam |
| The Islamist resistance does not stem from differences of race or religion that divide Muslims from Americans or Jews. It is a response to US-Israeli violence, systematic and longstanding, that seeks to divide, undermine, control and humiliate Islamic societies.
|
| The Real War Wages On -
Abid Ullah Jan |
| Why has the war on terrorism boiled down to the war on Islamic ideology? Just as terrorism was not fully defined, Islamic ideology is also left vague until the next phase of the war when everything related to Islam will be declared as evil and banned.
|
| The War On Commonsense -
Abid Ullah Jan |
| So the victory is not intended against terror, as the world has long been duped to fight against. It is to overcome an ideology, which the Norwegian politicians have further clarified as Islam “the way it was practiced when it was established in year 600." |
