Western Arab

Disgusting. When will this video get any western media coverage? No one is screaming about this anti-Semitic attack? Pretend this was an Israeli boy, there would be massive coverage and outrage over the incident. This incident and many more like it and worse happen every day in the West Bank to Palestinians. For even more like this, view this link.

The video speaks for itself.

Libya, Bahrain, Yemen and more!

Don’t stop, keep it going. Tunis and Egypt. The revolution must continue and the criminals must be punished. What is happening in Libya, Bahrain and Yemen is sick. Innocent people are dying and the US is quiet because Libya is oil, Bahrain means Arabia is next. The world must take a firm stand with the people. Support them!

I hope the Arab world unites and kicks out all these criminals.

Edit: Added Algeria and yes there are more! Remove the trash!

I have wanted Egyptians to stand up and kick Mubarak out for years. It is finally happening!

This event has started and must continue until he is out. Egyptians are the closest they have ever been, this is your chance. Do not stop!

Jordan, Libya, Algeria next and more!

Egypt

After NPR political commentator Juan Williams was fired for saying the following:

“When I get on the plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried. I get nervous.”

You would think that Bill Maher would get some heat for his attack on Muslims and Arabs. After all the majority of Muslims in the Middle East are Arabs. Maybe because Bill Maher is Jewish has something to do with it.

Bill Maher noted that Mohammed has just become the most popular baby name in Britain and proceeded to state the following question.

“Am I a racist to feel alarmed by that? Because I am. And it’s not because of the race, it’s because of the religion. I don’t have to apologize, do I, for not wanting the Western world to be taken over by Islam in 300 years?”

Bill Maher then defended himself with the following:

“And when I say Westerner, I mean someone who believes in the values that Western people believe in that a lot of the Muslim world does not. Like separation of church and state. Like equality of the sexes. Like respect for minorities, free elections, free speech, freedom to gather. These things are not just different from cultures that don’t have them. It’s better. I would like to keep those values here.”

Well Mr. Bill Maher, you claim to believe in these values. Was there ever a peep out of you about Israel and the loyalty oath? Or how about the fact that Israel wants to be a Jewish only state? Or the lack of rights for Arabs living in Israel? Almost every value you mentioned, Israel doesn’t value.

The fact is NOT that you do not criticize Israel because you are Jewish. Or even because you are a Zionist. The reason you don’t is simple. If you did so, you wouldn’t have a job. The Zionist controlled media would Mel Gibson you, or Rick Sanchez you or Octavia Nasr you or Helen Thomas you … or you can keep filling these in.

So to answer your question, YES Mr. Bill Maher, you are a racist! You can say you were “just following orders” one day, except oh wait you are taking money for it.

The news has been going on non-stop for more than a week over the so-called Ground Zero Mosque. Now I am sure some of you know by now that it’s location isn’t even at Ground Zero and in fact two large blocks away and down the street. I am also sure some of you also know by now that it is in fact an Islamic community center that has prayer rooms on two floors out of the 15 floors the building will have.

I am going to look at this issue a different way. What if it this Islamic community center was built right across the street from Ground Zero? What if a Mosque instead of a community center was built across the street from Ground Zero? Why does that even matter? Everything Islam has become hated or a crime. Everyone is also questioning if President Barack Obama is a Muslim, and I ask the same question so what if he was? But he isn’t a Muslim, just like that Islamic Community Center isn’t at Ground Zero.

So I hope they stand by their decision to build Park51 where they set out to and not back down from it. Looking forward to seeing Park51 completed at the old Burlington Coat Factory. And maybe all this hatred would go away one day.

I like this video. I like the nasheed and I like the speech and this speaker.

Here is Khalid Yasin – خالد ياسين

The nasheed is Ghoraba (Strangers) – نشيد غرباء

Yay. Tomorrow is Eid al Fitr. Today is the last day of Ramadan. It was a long month. In a couple of hours I will break my fast for the final day of Ramadan. So to everyone congratulations on completing the month of Ramadan. Have a wonderful holiday and let us all start stuffing ourselves again tomorrow.

May Allah accept our fasting and grant us good health and happiness for many years to come.

Today is the first day of Ramadan. I went to bed around 10 pm last night so that I can awake around 5 am today to eat a little before sunrise. I don’t know what time I fell asleep but amazingly it did not take too long. I did wake up around 3 am. I am used to sleeping 5 hours, but I managed to go back to sleep and was up around 5 am. I had my tea, some string cheese and strawberries! So welcome Ramadan.

Have a happy and blessed Ramadan.

Ramadan Kareem

Well Ramadan 2009 is coming up in a 3 days or 4 …. or 5. Yes of course it is that great time of the year when the Muslims and Arabs all have to be reminded of how divided we are. We can’t even agree on the first day of the month of Ramadan. And the reasons for this is all political, all the leaders in these countries want division. So thank you for the friendly reminder once again this year, perhaps 50 years from now we won’t have this reminder and we will have achieved a stronger identity and maybe will be united.

Have a blessed Ramadan.
