Shariah TV New York

Shariah TV is a Muslim-themed talk show, presented by Tazeen Ahmad broadcast on a late-night slot on Channel 4. The audience, made up of British Muslims, asks a panel questions relating to life as a Muslim in Britain. Channel 4 frequently presents the panel as scholars in Islam, however many have not attained the necessary qualification to be termed a scholar and some themselves would refuse to accept such a title which carries great weight.

The series has continued to raise sensitive and diverse issues such as homosexuality, free speech, and anti-terrorism legislation.

There has been much scrutiny by Muslims of the content and the panelists answers to most of the questions raised, resulting in some Islamist radicals terming the programme "Shirk TV".[1]

The series returned on the 5th June 2007 (at 00:10) for a four-part special from the city of Jerusalem.

The latest series began on 15 July 2008, and is broadcast from New York City.  (Wikipedia)

I must say this seems very strange to me.   As one commenter on a forum (see below) states, he does not feel that there are, or should be, moderate Muslims or moderate Islam:

On Shariah TV Channel 4 forum, there's this conversation:

Yuze says:  Peace and blessings to anybody reading this.

This maybe risky, as I might be labeled as a "extremist" or a "terror suspect" but I am proud to be a fundamentalist when it comes to my 'religion' which (all praise due to Allah) happens to be Islam.

I was very surprised at the attitude of the young brothers and some of the young sisters on the show. Also surprised at some of the answers given by the Imam and the female on the panel.

Moderate muslim??: Can somebody explain this to me please.

As a muslim, when I give daw'ah I am proud to highlight the fact that a) the Qur'an hasn't been tampered with and b) we have the sunnah to follow. Trying to modernize the teachings within both of these would essentially change Islam. [snip]

Just watch todays show. A muslim should NOT serve in the US or British military. If you are fighting to impose the laws of man, you are not a muslim.

See the Shariah TV website here.

Thanks to Right Truth reader Brian for bringing this to my attention.  For me it is just one more step in bringing Shariah to America.  And that's a BAD idea.

Replace capitalism with Islamic financial system: cleric, AFP via email\

Muslims should take advantage of the global financial crisis to build an economic system compatible with Islamic principles, influential Sunni cleric Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi said on Sunday.

"The collapse of the capitalist system based on usury and paper and not on goods traded on the market is proof that it is in crisis and shows that Islamic economic philosophy is holding up," said the Egyptian-born, Qatar-based cleric.

"The Western system has collapsed and we have a complete economic philosophy as well as spiritual strength," he said at Sunday's opening of a conference on Jerusalem.

"All riches are ours... the Islamic nation has all or nearly all the oil and we have an economic philosophy that no one else has," Qaradawi said.

He urged Muslims to "profit from the crisis to bring about the triumph of the (Islamic) nation, which holds the spiritual and material resources for victory."

The sixth conference on Jerusalem is being attended by around 300 people representing political parties as well as Muslim and Christian NGOs, from various countries.

It is staged by Al-Quds (Jerusalem) International Institution, which is dedicated to the conservation of the holy city and its sacred places.

Participants include Khaled Meshaal, exiled head of the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas, and Ali Akbar Velayati, a top adviser to Iranian spiritual leader Ali Khamenei.

The three-day conference will look at ways of protecting Jerusalem and its holy sites, which participants believe are threatened by Israel.

UNIVERSAL REMEMBRANCE

UNIVERSAL REMEMBRANCE

NEVER FORGET

ICMR Releases “Universality of Remembrance Book”

By Dr. Cedrick Edgecombe, Ph. D. Free-Lance Writer

Veterans Day is upon us, lending itself to reflection upon Life and Death, the sacrifice of he, who in defense of the Nation is willing to pay the ultimate price for Liberty and Freedom, to surrender self, so that others may live. It is, thus, the Soldier, the noblest development of mankind, that Pericles endeavored to enshrine in our collective memory and hearts in his famed Funeral Oration, when he stated: “For heroes have the whole earth for their tomb; and in lands far from their own, where the column with its epitaph declares it, there is enshrined in every breast a record unwritten with no tablet to preserve it, except that of the heart.”

Now, the Soldier is, at last, about to be enshrined in an eternal monument, long overdue: “An International Day of Remembrance of the Soldier.” The “Universality of Remembrance Book,” an e-book, this month released by the “International Consultative Mechanism on Remembrance” (ICMR) and the College of Journalism and Mass Communications at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, contains important contributions by senior Generals from Armed Forces the world over, veterans, families, leading politicians and important civil society stakeholders, coming together in the spirit of “Universal Remembrance.”

“The concept of the “Universality of Remembrance” allows us as brothers in arms --- and as citizens of the world --- an important opportunity to express the sacrifice of patriots of all nations,” states General Peter W. Chiarelli, USA, Vice Chief of Staff Army. “As we remember our Fallen, in countries the world over, I hope I can give light to a common cause. That we choose to pursue an idea. An idea whose time has come. An idea that transcends the pliability of politics. But instead brings to light the consensus of remembrance on behalf of those who have given the last full measure of devotion.”

A sentiment echoed by Major-General Tom Knutsen, the Royal Norwegian Defense Attaché and Dean of the Defense Attaches Corps, who states: “We have, as military men, a lot in common. We share the same hardships when our countries send us out to do what militaries always have been doing: laying down our lives for the benefit of others; and we share the same professional camaraderie and bonding between men of arms that are universal and which transcend borders.” States Merrilee Carlson, Chair of Families United for Our Troops and Their Mission, whose son, Sergeant Michael Curtis Carlson, USA, rests in peace eternal at Arlington National Cemetery: “Remembrance brings sadness – sadness for all that has been lost and or destroyed. But, in remembering the good, recognizing the cost, in remembering the smiles and the hugs and the new friendships, we look with hope to the future. Hope that one day no mother’s son will ever have to die in defense of their country while we remain secure in the knowledge that if needed, that son will offer his service.”

The ICMR is an informal consultative mechanism between stakeholders, governmental and non-governmental, to explore the feasibility and desirability of advancing the concept of “Universal Remembrance” in furtherance of a new “Culture of Remembrance.” It convenes at the initiative of Mrs. Francis S. Drath, widow of the late Colonel Francis S. Drath, USA, who served as Deputy Director of the United States Selective Service System under General Lewis B. Hershey, and grandmother of 2nd Lieutenant William F. Dwyer III, West Point Class of 2008, who serves with the 3rd Infantry Division. An award-winning journalist, author, acclaimed playwright, noted academic and respected Presidential advisor, Mrs. Drath ranks among the Nation’s leading patriotic citizens, whose selfless work on behalf of the Nation’s troops, veterans and military families has been commended by the President, the Vice President and the Speaker of the House of Representatives and which culminated in her appointment to the White House Commission on Remembrance in 2006. General George W. Casey, USA, Chief of Staff Army and a fellow-member of the White House Commission on Remembrance, states: “Mrs. Drath’s unwavering commitment to our troops and families is awe-inspiring and deserves our full support.”

In proclaiming that “in remembrance, no matter how horrific the memory lies the seed for hope that the Fallen’s sacrifice not be in vein, nor forgotten,” Mrs. Drath points out that “Remembrance knows no limitations in space, nor time.” In stating that “by sharing remembrance with other nations, across national boundaries, the soldier is shouldering individual grief in advance of collective healing, across the battlefield’s divide,” she expands the very concept of Remembrance, which to many rests at the national level. However, given the moral principles inherent in what she calls the act of “active remembrance,” i.e. “Commemoration of the Fallen” and “Celebration of the Living,” Mrs. Drath points the way towards a bold new move, together, to express the sacrifice of patriots of all nations. General Chiarelli states: “We in the United States are riveted by our own losses – but rarely look beyond our borders to see or feel the toil of our Iraqi brothers. The Iraqi soldiers and police who have given their lives in defense of an idea – who have fought, trained, sweat, and bled with the soldiers of the Coalition – are the noblest of souls. ”

In April, Mrs. Drath led the Nation and her Allies in observances to mark Iraq Liberation Day at Arlington National Cemetery. On Veterans Day, the grande dame of Washington power politics will convene the “Universal Remembrance Convocation” in the Nation’s Capital City, which will include a concert at Saint Matthew’s Cathedral and a conference to build on the momentum being gained by ICMR in support of troops, veterans and military families. All concert tickets are free of charge to U.S. and Allied veterans, troops and families through the Berlin Air Lift Diamond Jubilee Committee. (www.BerlinAirlift-DiamondJubilee.org)

“It may be worth considering that the term ‘Patriot’ - as we look through the lens of the ‘Universality of Remembrance’ – be broadened to those beyond the role as soldier,” General Chiarelli says. “There are patriots outside the ranks who have put their lives at risk for the good of their nation’s future. One who will never be erased from my mind was a good friend of mine, Ali Al-Haidari. Ali Al-Haidari was the Governor of the Baghdad Province – brutally gunned down on the streets of Baghdad in early January of 2005. Ali Al-Haidari knew the risks – but chose to continue to govern because he saw the light of what Iraq could become. Ali Al Haidari missed those first free elections later that month, but his memory and his sacrifice will live on in me, forever.”

The “Universal Remembrance Convocation” will figure prominently a high-level Iraqi General Officer Delegation, led by General Radhi Dahham al-Assal, the Military Advisor to the Minister of Defense of Iraq. Mrs. Drath views the Iraq experience central to exploring the efficacy of Remembrance in advance of post-conflict reconciliation, peace and understanding among the Peoples of the World. States General Dahham: “I thank Mrs. Drath for her important initiative to advance Friendship and Cooperation among all Nations. Iraq helps lend perspective to what "universality of remembrance" can, by design and must, of necessity, entail. Americans and Iraqis are partners for peace and democracy. The partnership in eternal life so nobly enshrined in the joint grave at Arlington National Cemetery of an Iraqi hero, Iraqi Air Force Captain Ali Abass Alrubaeye, interred alongside an American hero, USAF Capt Derek Argel, alongside their comrades, Captain Jeremy Fresques, Major William Downs, and Sergeant Casey Crate. For our tomorrow, they gave their today. Derek, Ali Abass, Jeremy, William and Casey are often on our minds. And in our hearts, always. The Government of Iraq is pleased that Mrs. Drath has placed the joint grave into the center of what universal remembrance can be and I shall be honored, on behalf of the Government of Iraq, to lay a wreath at the joint grave on Veterans Day.”

General Dahham stresses that remembrance is about keeping the memory of the Fallen alive. “I salute Mrs. Drath for forcing us to remember the Fallen by Name, lest he become a faceless statistic. It is important not only that we keep alive the Fallen's memory, but that the sacrifices made by those young men and women to preserve our freedoms are understood by the youth of today. We must turn our eyes to our youth and raise awareness of remembrance through education and information. The Remembrance Conference this fall, bringing together all stakeholders, is an important first step on the joint journey, ahead. The Government of Iraq is pleased to support international initiatives towards that end.”

The ICMR is to be commended for its valiant effort on behalf of Soldiers for, indeed, the Soldier’s profession is unique. His commitment to service transcends self-interest to the point of self-sacrifice. Who better to put the thought to paper than a distinguished Englishman. “Remembrance must be part of the unspoken contract between the people of a country and the men and women who are prepared to put themselves into harm’s way to defend the national interest,” states Dominick Chilcott, the Deputy British Ambassador in Washington, who is widely acclaimed for his speeches of signal-import. “There is no greater sacrifice an individual can make on behalf of his countrymen and women than to lay down his life for them, whether it is to remove an evil dictator who threatens international peace and security, like Saddam Hussein, or to deal with a direct threat or aggression against one’s own country, as the US had to after 9/11 and we did in 1982 in the Falkland Islands. Those brave individuals who join up know the risks and dangers they will face. But they also need to know that if they do lose their lives, their country will not forget them. More than that, their country will honor their memory, their achievements and their sacrifice.”

The “Universality of Remembrance Book” is a must read for Patriots the world over. Never Forget.

CHANGE REPEATED

CHANGE REPEATED

    He stood in front of the adoring masses, marveling over the spectacle of so much support. He enjoyed how they viewed his message of change and they in turn enjoyed his promises to lead them out of the financial abyss of corruption. Both wallowed within the chaos of the near-collapse of the banking industry and all had suffered from the decline of their currency. He drew power from such support; it was what propelled this unknown onto the national political stage.

    He was, after all, a newcomer; someone who was not held in servitude to the “old ways” that plagued his nation for years. It was a constant call for “out with the old, in with the new” and the masses fell for it. They suffered. All had experienced the demerits of rising unemployment, the rapid decline of housing opportunities, and their relative inexperience in handling a new globalized economy.

    He waved his hands over them with acknowledgment. He felt their sorrows; experienced their pains. He had been there. He had suffered through one of the most brutal urban environments and rose up to contend for national leadership against the “old guy” who represented the old order of military, nationalism, and faith in conservatism. He knew that this past was wrong; it destroyed everything great about his nation. He would lead them anew. He would provide jobs for his fellow citizens. He would ensure that the broadening gap between the classes would close.

    However, the local economy was not his sole claim to fame. He would correct the problems associated with the war. Too many of his fellow compatriots died for the invasion of another country. And for what? For imperialism? To fatten those already fattened from excess? It was wrong. He would rebuild his country. He would bring jobs home and employ everyone. He would provide them with healthcare, an education, and the hope for a better tomorrow. Most of all, however, he would emerge as a well-respected and admired leader of the world. All nations would love him; just ask the multitude waving towards him during his recent trip to Berlin.

    These words could very well describe Senator Barack Obama in 2008, but they do not. I wrote these words about Adolf Hitler in his run towards leading his nation. They were not based upon biased contemporary histories but drew upon the work Der Fuehrer by a contemporary of Hitler’s, Konrad Heiden, and published in 1944.  What makes this book so invaluable to me is that it was written when the ‘Hitler Question’ had not been fully answered yet. Surely, he was still in power and the Allies had not even invaded Europe at that time.

    We, today, tend to be too far removed from the implications of solitary individuals. We’ve drifted away from adherence to Christianity, for example, because Christ walked amongst us thousands of years ago and we are, quite frankly, too “enlightened” to consider the implications of God coming down for a visit. We are six decades removed from a period in which our entire nation was committed to fight against absolute evil; a period in which gasoline and bread was rationed and military service was not a service but a requirement. We no longer seem to understand that a mortgage is a twenty or thirty year commitment and that we may be required to endure extreme sacrifices in order to keep our word with our lender. We have become an extremely shallow nation.

    The primary difference between our nation today and that of the Germans during the 1930s is that they actually had things bad. Their country was in shambles and could not defend itself against a flea. We, in contrast, still drive gas-guzzling SUVs, buy tickets to football games, and shell out a few hours’ wages to take our kids to see some movie where couples have sex in cars. Our perspective is shattered. Our intentions misaligned. Our attitudes spoiled.

    Barack Obama’s campaign, here in Michigan at least, is running a twenty-four-hour infomercial on Dish Network preaching his call for “Change”. I say that with some levity for there seems to be very little information coming out from his campaign. Perhaps I should just call it a commercial for he annoys me as much as that guy with the dark beard, Billy Mays I think his name is, who promises that OxyClean can do wonders for me. It might, but it is still not worth the cost in order to try. Neither is Barack Obama.

    What is to “change” about America anyway? Is it that we have a better than average chance of succeeding in our dreams? Or is it because people who want without the effort still complain that they are “left out” of the rewards for struggling? Is it that any American, irrespective of whether they possess health insurance or not, can still walk into any emergency room in the country and have their injury tended to? Or perhaps we need to change because somewhere somehow we have to pay for being injured and, well, happiness is saddling someone else with our misfortunes. Listen, I do not have health insurance myself. Not at the moment, leastways. If I get an ingrown toenail, I simply walk into the bathroom with my trusty knife and pliers and, well, let’s just say that it saves me a $30 co-pay. That‘s not the issue, however. The issue is that I expect to pay for my own healthcare. I know, perhaps better than most people, that a major illness can run up a million dollar tag in a matter of months if insurance is lost through, as one example, layoff. I just prefer to deal with the crisis. It hurts, yes, especially when you lose the love of your life but Sara would probably have died earlier if we could not get into a doctor for the wait associated with nationalized healthcare.

    Barack Obama’s call for change is the same as Adolf Hitler’s, but his predecessor had the fortune to call for change when change was all that existed. America still has a viable government; one run overwhelmingly by liberal Democrats, but a viable government nevertheless. America is still safe with the knowledge that its citizens still have a Constitutional guarantee of self-preservation. Americans can still travel from “sea to shining sea” without showing their “papers” to every community peace officer we come across. In America, I can find the freedom to change my career as many times as I want without prior approval from our leaders. In America, I can write, for the whole world to see, that I personally believe that Islam, for example, is a sham, its leaders opportunist crybabies, and should any U.S. politician decry my stance I can equally call them asinine bastards who do not deserve to be wasting my precious oxygen supply. That is America today. So what does Obama want to “change” and why? God forbid that we should ever find out.

Who will decide the vote in November?

The general consensus seems to be that old white men win elections, but this year women will have an important part in deciding who will be the next President of the United States.

Women have voted at higher rates than men in every presidential election since 1980, and the number of women voters has exceeded the number of men voting in every presidential election since 1964, according to U.S. Bureau of the Census statistics. Women outnumber men among registered as well as actual voters.

In 2004, registered voters numbered 72.4 million women and 63.4 million men. With new voter registrations at an all time high in 2008, there are indications that women may be registering at higher rates than men in this election cycle, thereby adding to the advantage women have over men among potential voters. A May 2008 survey of state election officials by the Associated Press found that in the six states that collected voter data by gender, comparing 2008 with 2004, the registration rate for new voters was up 89 percent among women, compared with 74 percent among men.

In 2004, 8.8 million more women than men voted, according to official figures from the U.S. Bureau of the Census. Based on past patterns and the data about new registrants, women voters could easily outnumber male voters by more than 9 million in the 2008 election.[snip]

Obama's camp keeps crying "racism" at every truth against them they don't like.  There's real danger in that according to Dr. Phyllis Chesler:

Me? I voted for Hillary and for six years now, I have been documenting the ways in which the allegation of “racism” intimidates and silences people–as it is meant to do–and allows totalitarian thuggery and Jew hatred more room to grow. All over Europe charges of “racism” are being used to subdue the indigenous populations. This time, the natives are mainly white people–but the victims also include Jews, Muslim girls and women, and Muslim dissidents.  (continue reading)

Dennis Ross was with Obama in Berlin when more than 200,000 people turned out, and because that impressed him so -- he's voting for Barack Obama in November.    Wow, doesn't take much to impress Mr. Ross, does it?

For Obama to be chatting in a one-on-one with Qazwini, is equivalent to meeting with Ayatollah Khomeini’s, and Hezbollahs’ representative in America!

 

Qazwini is an Iraqi born cleric of exceptional religious pedigree and runs America’s largest Mosque, in Detroit Michigan. (continue reading at Bud Simmons)

Hat tip to Norman HoobenFrom Liberty Republican Oct 10, '08 by Becki for group libertyrepublican

The Sun Times today gave a major clue that Barack Obama will indeed go down with Tony Rezko, sooner rather than later. It looks as though Rezko is about to turn on Alexi Giannoulias, the 30-year old State Treasurer of Illinois (who was elected only because Obama backed him).

Here’s where all the clues are…and then we’ll walk you through the local Chicago politics on how today’s hint by the Sun Times has us convinced, for the first time ever, that prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald could indeed send Barack Obama to jail. We need to repeat that: we never believed, until now, that Obama would go to jail for anything related to Rezko. Today, this breaking news about what Rezko is singing to the Feds about makes us reconsider all of that. Barack Obama will serve a prison sentence in the next few years — because knowing Fitzgerald, there is no reason he would be going through all of this if that was not the targeted goal in the long term.

The Country With Real Leverage In Tehran -- Germany

Thanks to Wall Street Journal European, via Insights Into Today's Middle East, The Country With Real Leverage in Tehran :

At the U.N. General Assembly last month, German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier condemned a speech by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as "blatant anti-Semitism." Mr. Steinmeier also criticized Iran's "delaying tactics" on the nuclear issue and warned that the Iranian government "must not exhaust the patience of the international community." But was he really challenging Iran's nuclear-weapons program?

For all his tough words, Mr. Steinmeier never said what steps the international community should take if Iran continues its "delaying tactics." His British and French colleagues recently repeated their willingness to impose unilateral European sanctions on Iran if Russia and China block new sanctions resolutions in the Security Council. However, Mr. Steinmeier opposes European sanctions, saying they exceed the U.N. mandate. Indeed, so far there is little sign of the Germany government implementing any measures to thwart Iran's ambition to develop nuclear weapons.

Yet no country has more powerful leverage. Germany in particular can exert highly effective economic pressure on Iran. German political scientist Matthias Küntzel has estimated that two-thirds of all Iranian companies use German technology. Simply depriving Iran of German spare parts would severely disrupt Iran's industry.

More than 1,700 German companies are active in Iran. These include household names like Linde, ThyssenKrupp and BASF. Germany's technology and telecommunications giant Siemens has made the biggest financial commitment. As part of a continuing $450 million deal started in 2006, Siemens is committed to sell Iran 150 locomotive engines over six years and to transfer the technical know-how for manufacturing them in Iran within 10 years.

Clearly, Germany by itself has enough economic leverage with Iran to persuade its leaders to halt uranium enrichment, as demanded by the U.N. And yet there is no sign of a will to use it. In fact, German-Iranian business ties are flourishing more than ever. Germany is still Iran's most important trading partner in the West. After a two-year decline, German exports to Iran grew in the first quarter of 2008 by 13.6%, as compared to the same period in 2007. The German control office for foreign trade (BAFA) approved 1,926 business deals from January through July 2008, an astonishing increase of 63% over the same period last year.  (more)

 

Sign up for your on-line courses in practical jihad, taught by Hamas

From Israel National News, By Nissan Ratzlav-Katz

The Islamist Hamas terrorist organization has initiated an online course in explosives, military weapons and tactics for would-be jihad fighters. Aimed at the population of the Palestinian Authority, the course is called "Get Ready" and is designed to prepare the population for war with Israel.

First exposed outside Palestinian Authority and jihadist circles on Monday by Israel's Channel 10 TV, the sophisticated course includes highly detailed practical and theoretical lessons, as well as sample videos of jihadist attacks. All manner of weapons are described, analyzed and their proper use explained by masked Hamas instructors.

Students also learn about such things as the manufacture and detonation of explosives, the functioning of rocket launchers, weak points on IDF tanks, and the physics of firing at a moving vehicle. Lessons cover possible scenarios such as an IDF ground incursion into Hamas-controlled Gaza or an airborne Israeli commando assault.

Each instructive section concludes with test questions. For example, a fatigues-wearing Hamas teacher asks, "A truck is moving at a rate of 15 meters per second, at a distance of 200 meters, from left to right. How will you succeed in hitting this truck?"

In its report, the Channel 10 corespondent speculated that the instruction was not only intended to teach Hamas members to more effectively fight Israel, but also to prepare them for confrontation with the rival PA terrorist movement, Fatah. Such a confrontation has already occurred periodically in recent years, but Hamas hopes that an armed clash with PA Chairman's Fatah forces in Judea and Samaria would end with the Islamists in control of the entire PA.

Ayatollah Jannati In Iran Friday Sermon: U.S. Economic Woes 'Divine Punishment'-'The Unhappier They [Americans] Become, The Happier We Get'
In his October 3, 2008 Friday sermon at the Tehran University campus, Iranian Guardian Council secretary and interim Friday prayer leader Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati said that Iran's enemies had targeted its economy, and that the U.S.'s economic crisis was "divine punishment" that had made Iranians very happy.

Al-Qaeda: US Economic Crisis Equals Muslim Victory
An American member of al-Qaeda pointed to economic troubles in the United States as proof that "the enemies of Islam" face defeat, in an English-language video released Saturday. In a half hour video message, California-native Adam Gadahn urged Pakistanis to unite against their government and U.S. forces, and taunted Americans over their economic crisis, relating it to their military interventions.

However, they need to be concerned because economists are showing other countries are also suffering financial problems.

US sanctions: financial firewall for Iran, Syria?
Syria and Iran, both targeted by U.S. sanctions, proclaim that their "independent" economies will suffer less than others from global financial turmoil. But economists in the region say neither Tehran nor Damascus will be immune from the credit crunch spreading from the United States, or from any ensuing world economic downturn. Some argue that the cost of sanctions greatly outweighs any unforeseen benefits Syria or Iran might gain by being denied access - and direct exposure - to U.S. financial markets.

Be careful what you wish for Iran and Al-Qaeda.

HONORING THOSE WHO REFUSED TO REMAIN SILENT

HONORING THOSE WHO REFUSED TO REMAIN SILENT
 
Wyman Institute for Holocaust Studies Holds National Conference
 
BY: FERN SIDMAN

 
Our rabbis of blessed memory teach us that "one who saves a life, it is as if he has saved an entire world." Indeed, speaking out against flagrant injustices and pursuing righteousness at all costs is a precept that is at the core of our deeply held beliefs. Throughout the long and often traumatic history of the Jewish people, there have always been a miniscule cadre who, despite the inherent threat to their livelihoods and even their own lives, managed to summon up the moral strength and fortitude to raise their voices in outrage and indignation in response to the egregious and often heinous actions of our tormentors.
 
These people, both Jew and Gentile alike were honored for their courageous actions at the Sixth Annual Conference of the David S. Wyman Institute for Holocaust Studies, held at the Fordham University School of Law in Manhattan.
 
This year's conference reflected this theme as it was billed, "They Spoke Out: American Voices for Rescue from the Holocaust" and featured those obscure and unsung heroes who hitherto were barely recognized, even as minor historical footnotes. The morning session was dedicated to the recent ground breaking research conducted by Dr. Rafael Medoff, renowned Holocaust historian, prolific author and director of  the David S. Wyman Institute for Holocaust Studies. Dr. Medoff's new book entitled, "Blowing the Whistle on Genocide: Josiah E. DuBois, Jr. and the Struggle for a U.S. Response to the Holocaust" (Purdue University Press) explores the role that a fairly anonymous US Treasury Department lawyer played in exposing the State Department's nefarious policies of impeding the rescue of European Jewry from the Nazi slaughterhouse.
 
In 1943, DuBois, who was chief counsel for the Foreign Funds Control Division of the Treasury Department learned through surreptitious examination of documents provided to him by a friend within the State Department, that senior State Department officials had been deliberately obstructing opportunities to save the remnants of Europe's Jews. Consumed with fear that the rescue of significant numbers of Jews would put pressure on the United States to absorb them, the State Department purposely blocked a Jewish organization's request for a government license to send funds to help save Jews from Hitler's "Final Solution". DuBois was fully cognizant of the fact that should he decide to go head-to-head with the State Department on such a sensitive issue that he could make a lot of enemies in the process and potentially jeopardize his career. Despite the risks, he decided to blow the whistle.
 
In an excerpt of a pivotal report authored by Josiah DuBois dated January 13, 1944 and sent to Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau, Jr, DuBois intones, "This government has for a long time maintained that its policy is to work out programs to save those Jews of Europe who could be saved. I am convinced on the basis of the information which is available to me that certain officials in our State Department, which is charged with carrying out this policy, have been guilty not only of gross procrastination and wilful failure to act, but even of wilful attempts to prevent action from being taken to rescue Jews from Hitler. Unless remedial steps of a drastic nature are taken, and taken immediately, I am certain that no effective action will be taken by this government to prevent the complete extermination of the Jews in German controlled Europe, and that this government will have to share for all time responsibility for this extermination."
 
As a result of his tenacious efforts in bringing to the fore the egregious actions of the State Department, DuBois helped to bring into existence the War Refugee Board which was the US government rescue agency dedicated to overseeing the plight of European Jewry. In addition to assuming a leadership role in the War Refugee Board, subsequent to World War II, DuBois became a prosecutor at the Nuremberg Trials.
 
During his remarks, Dr. Medoff contrasted DuBois and President Roosevelt as two symbols "of the tragic history of America’s response to the Holocaust." Concerning President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Dr. Medoff said, "Here is the president who was regarded as a humanitarian, who portrayed himself as the champion of the little man, who had the power to save many Jews from the Holocaust but who -- to quote Fowler Harper, the Solicitor General for the Interior Department in the 1940s-- 'would not lift a finger' to help them". With more than a bit of cynicism Dr. Medoff added, "His was the administration that kept the immigration quotas 90% under-filled --meaning it could have saved 190,000 Jews under the existing quotas, without changing the immigration laws.  His was the administration that sent planes to bomb German oil factories less than five miles from the gas chambers of Auschwitz, but refused to instruct them to drop bombs on the gas chambers, or the railway lines, even after receiving maps and detailed information about what was happening in the camp.  His was the administration that refused to pressure the British to open the gates of Palestine so Jews could find refuge there."

As to attorney DuBois, Medoff said, "he was FDR's moral opposite. Here was the little, anonymous Treasury Department attorney who learned about the Holocaust by accident, who could have easily turned away, who could have concluded that it was none of his business, who certainly could have backed off once he started receiving threats. Yet here was the man of conscience who would not be silent, who defied his threats and risked his career in order to force President Roosevelt to finally rescue some Jews before it was too late."
 
Also addressing the audience of over 350 people were Dr. David S.Wyman, founder of the Wyman Institute, Professor Emeritus of history at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and chairman of the Judaic Studies department. Dr. Wyman, a grandson of two Protestant ministers is the author of "The Abandonment of the Jews: America and the Holocaust, 1941-1945. Dr. Wyman spoke of the "courageous sleuthing" done by DuBois and his findings of a $70,000 donation collected by a Jewish organization that never reached its destination in Europe for rescue activities of Jews because the State Department "dragged its heels and incessantly set up barricades to prevent these funds from reaching those who could have saved Jewish lives".
 
The afternoon session was entitled, "Shaking the Conscience of American Jewry: The Rabbinical Students who Challenged Jewish Leaders to Push Forcefully for Holocaust Rescue". The whirlwind of activism generated by three Jewish Theological Seminary students; Noah Golinkin, Jerome Lipnick and Moshe "Buddy" Sachs during the Holocaust years was discussed in great depth by Golinkin's son, Rabbi Prof. David Golinkin, Lipnick's son, Rabbi Jonathan Lipnick and Michael Zion spoke of Buddy Sachs' contributions. In late 1942, the news of Hitler's genocide had been publicly confirmed, yet the Roosevelt administration insisted nothing could be done to help the Jews, except to win the war.
 
These three JTS students vehemently disagreed with this hypothesis and established a student action committee to publicize the news from Europe and prod Jewish leaders to adopt a more activist approach. Dissatisfied with what they perceived as the lethargic response of mainstream Jewish organizations to the persecution of European Jewry, the students organized seminary conferences that featured an array of refugee and relief experts, among them the heroic Varian Fry, who during 1940 had defied the State Department and personally rescued refugees trapped in Vichy France.
 
In a February 1943 article in a publication called The Reconstructionist, Golinkin, Lipnick and Sachs wrote; "What have the rabbis and leaders done to arouse themselves and their communities to the demands of the hour? What have they undertaken to awaken the conscience of the American people?" Rabbi David Golinkin said of his father, "When he read a November 1942 report in the New York Times announcing that two million Jews were already murdered in Europe he made it his mission to arouse the conscientious of the American people to prevent the slaughter of the remaining four million Jews."
 
Despite the disunity amongst Jewish organizations during those years and the blatant animus towards student activists by such mainstream Jewish leaders as Stephen Wise who feared that Jewish emigration to the United States would cause anti-Semitism, the students persisted in their campaign. Eventually, their most significant impact was on the Synagogue Council of America who organized rallies, demonstrations, prayer vigils and letter writing campaigns for European Jewry.
 
The last part of the afternoon was spent listening to the words of television and screen actor, Steven Hill who is best known for his role in the NBC television drama, "Law and Order" where he played District Attorney Adam Schiff for ten seasons. Hill, (a returnee to Orthodox Judaism), now sports a beard and yarmulka and his words reflect his deep connection to his heritage and his people. One of Hill's first major acting roles was as Marlon Brando's understudy and as one of the soldiers in the pro-Zionist Broadway play, "A Flag is Born" written by Bergson group member and Hollywood playwright Ben Hecht which debuted in 1946...
 
Hill spoke of this play as a "vehicle for my own increased Jewish identity" as well as "helping to raise the level of consciousness in the post-Holocaust era". The play opened on Broadway a year after the liberation of the concentration camps by the Allied forces and spoke directly to the three most paramount issues of its day: the fight to establish a Jewish state, the smuggling of Holocaust survivors to British controlled Palestine, and the battle against racial segregation in the United States. The play was not without intense controversy, as the characters' sharp criticism of British rule in Palestine aroused the ire of many in England. The London Evening Standard called it "the most virulent anti-British play ever staged in the United States". On these shores however, reviewers such as Walter Winchell said the play was "worth seeing, worth hearing, and worth remembering... it will wring your heart and eyes dry.. bring at least eleven handkerchiefs."
 
Hill recalled Marlon Brando's powerful performance in the lead role, especially his lines excoriating American Jewry's response to the Holocaust, "which touched a nerve" said Hill. "You Jews of America!" Hill recalls Brando shouting during the play, "Where was your cry of rage that could have filled the world and stopped the fires?" Hill mentioned that Brando later commented that the accusation "sent chills through the audience."

 

President Lula, guilty by confession

President Lula, guilty by confession

Olavo de Carvalho
Diario do Comercio, September 26th, 2005

 

Translated by David Carvalho and Donald Hank to Laigle's Forum.

I should be grateful to President Lula. When practically all the national media makes an effort to cover up the activities of the Sao Paulo Forum or even to deny its existence, labeling as a “madman” or “fanatic” anyone who denounces them, cometh the very founder of the entity and does the job, proving by his own words the most depressing suspicions and some even worse.

The presidential speech on July 2, 2005, stated in the fifteen year anniversary of the Forum and reproduced in the government's official site , is the explicit confession of a conspiracy against the national sovereignty, an infinitely more serious crime than all crimes of corruption perpetrated and covered up by the current government; a crime that, by itself, would justify not only impeachment but also the imprisonment of its perpetrator.

At the distance at which I find myself, I have only now become fully aware of this unique document, and yet the editors-in-chief of the major newspapers and of all the radio and TV news broadcasts in Brazil were there the whole time. Though aware of the speech since the date it was made, they remained silent, proving that their persistent hiding of the facts was not the result of distraction or pure incompetence: it was subservient, Machiavellian complicity with a crime, of which they expected to enjoy profits unknown.   (continue reading)

FARC and International Support

BOGOTÁ, Colombia -- Email messages linking the Colombian Marxist guerilla insurgency (known by its Spanish acronym, FARC) to politicians, union activists and left-wing parties overseas have revealed a network of supporters spanning several continents, and have kept tensions high between Colombia and some of its neighbors.

Most of the information comes from laptop computers, external hard drives and flash drives reportedly recovered from a FARC campground located in Ecuador that the Colombians bombed and then searched in March. The attack killed Raul Reyes, the guerrillas' second in command, who acted as the group's foreign minister.

Initially, the release of email messages documenting friendly relationships between the guerrillas and the leftist governments of Ecuador and Venezuela strained relations between Colombia and its neighbors. Since then, other emails made public have linked FARC leaders to government officials, academics, far-left political parties and union activists in Spain, Italy, Germany, Canada, Brazil and the United States.   (continue reading at World Politics Review)

From Douglas Farah, The FARC’s World of Terror Is Shrinking

The concerted effort by the United States and most of the European Union, along with a few countries in Latin America, are gradually cutting off the operational areas of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC).

Tuesday's OFAC designation of eight members of the FARC's international delegation is another step in that direction. The FARC is a designated terrorist organization by the U.S. and the EU.

These International Commission members represent the FARC in Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay, Brazil, Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela, Panama, Mexico, and Canada.

As I wrote in this paper for the NEFA Foundation, the FARC's international structure has been one of the most underestimated elements of support for the terrorist organization.  (continue reading)

Iranian Law - Death for Apostasy from Islam.

The death penalty mandate for apostasy from Islam in Iran.

Iranian Parliament provisionally approves death penalty for leaving Islam

Barnabas Fund reports,'The Iranian Parliament has given provisional approval, by a majority of 196 to seven, to a bill that mandates the death penalty for apostasy from Islam. Until now Iranian judges could impose the death penalty in such cases only on the basis of Islamic law and fatwas, not on the basis of Iranian law.

The bill prescribes a mandatory death sentence for any male Muslim who converts from Islam to another religion, and lifelong imprisonment for female converts from Islam. It also gives the Iranian secular courts authority to convict Iranians living outside the country of crimes relating to Iranian national security. It seems likely that this could be used against the many Iranian Christians who live outside Iran but are involved in evangelism within it. Apostasy from Islam is viewed by most Muslims as equivalent to treason.  (continue reading at Christian Quoter)

On Iran's nuclear program, DEBKAfile says:

Iran is on its way to mastering technology that would enable it to build atomic bombs, International Atomic Energy Agency director Mohamed ElBaradei said to the German Sueddeutsche Zeitung Friday. Asked if Iran was on the way to “virtual” nuclear-weapons power status, ElBaradei replied: “That is correct,” but added: Tehran could not “break out” to a bomb as long as IAEA monitors remained at nuclear sites.

US-Russian deal lets Iran’s nuclear bomb program off the hook

The collapse of Israel’s foreign policy on Iran came at an unfortunate juncture:

1. The pandemonium in the US-led financial world has removed the Iranian threat from international consciousness.

2. Moscow, Iran and Syria are cementing their partnership, giving Tehran’s nuclear aspirations a strong diplomatic umbrella.

Moscow is pursuing cold war tactics in two new spheres: the Middle East, from its center of gravity in Tehran, and Latin America, resting on Venezuela’s anti-American posture and friendly relations with Iran.  (DEBKAfile)

US approves 25 F-35 stealth fighter aircraft to Israel

The Pentagon has approved the $15.2 billion sale of 25 F-35 stealth Strike Fighters to Israel with an option for another 50, saying assisting Israel develop a strong and ready self-defense capability is vital to US national security interests.

DEBKAfile’s military sources report that President George W, Bush, in mid-financial crisis, fully discharged his promise of a defense package for Israeli before he left office. Israel is the first foreign nation to receive the Lockheed Martin F-35 Strike Fighter, the plane of the future, which will enhance its air-to-air and air-to-ground defenses and replace the older Air Force F-16 fighters by virtue of five exceptional features:

1. An advanced radar for striking ground or air targets long distance while destroying any threat in its immediate environment.

2. An electro-optical targeting system (EOTS).

3. The pilot’s helmet-mounted displays (HMD).

4. It is the first fighter plane in the world with a communications system linked to satellites.

5. The capacity for carrying large quantities of ordnance from joint direct attack munitions to AIM-120 and AIM-132 air-to-air missiles.  (DEBKAfile)

The new, advanced long-range radar system has arrived in the Negev.

The news this week of the deployment of the X-band radar in the Negev, and of Pentagon plans to supply up to 75 JSF fighters, appears to signify a new era in Israeli-US relations, though the lack of trust has yet to completely dissipate.

The radar, together with 120 servicemen, landed at Nevatim Air Force Base. Under US pressure, the Defense Ministry clamped a tight media blackout on the arrival, until it was leaked to Defense News by the US European Command.

THE HIGH-POWERED radar will be hooked up to the US military's Joint Tactical Ground Station. Assisted by satellites, it will be capable of detecting an Iranian ballistic missile shortly after launch, cutting the response time of the Arrow anti-missile system. The Arrow's current Green Pine radar can pick up incoming missiles at a range of 500 to 600 miles. The new system has a range of around 1,200 miles. (Jerusalem Post)

Marx must be delighted.

Does anyone really know what's been added to the 'rescue' bill, do they care?  In addition to what we have heard in the news, the legislation potentially "provides hundreds of billions of dollars of bailouts to foreign investors," including those in Communist China.  And that's not all ...  Your politicians have attached bills that could not pass on their own merits to this bail out bill.

The offensive provision is Section 112, "Coordination With Foreign Authorities and Central Banks," which "Requires the Secretary to coordinate with foreign authorities and central banks to establish programs similar to TARP" - the Troubled Assets Relief Program.

In another strange twist, in order to get around the constitutional requirement that revenue raising bills must originate in the House, the Senate attached the Wall Street takeover plan to a House bill, the Paul Wellstone Mental Health and Addiction Equity Act of 2007. The socialist-style bailout passed 74-25 with one senator (the ailing Sen. Ted Kennedy) not voting. Of the 25 opponents, 15 were Republicans.  (more)

CONSERVATIVE ALTERNATIVES

“’Well, if you're so opposed to a bailout of Wall Street, what would you do?’  I get this question all the time from advocates of the proposed $700 billion Wall Street bailout here inside the Beltway. . . . If I had any confidence in the ability of the political process to produce a rational, bold response, my answer would be: ‘I would do plenty.’

“Start by unwinding the many government mistakes that created the housing bubble, repealing the various laws and regulations specifically designed to put people into homes that they could not afford. I would scrap the Community Reinvestment Act, break up Fannie and Freddie, and put the pieces back in the private sector.

“If ‘liquidity’ and the availability of capital is the immediate problem, I would also repeal the tax on capital gains and other tax provisions that punish savings and capital accumulation. The Flat Tax does all of this in one fell swoop. And, finally, I would repeal the various distortions in corporate accounting hurriedly drafted during previous legislative panics, starting with Sarbanes-Oxley.”

The so-called sweeteners are nothing but pork on top of pork, enough to give America a sudden fatal heart attack.

SWEET BRIBES

“Packed with ‘sweeteners’ – the deceptive name for political bribes - the ($700 billion bailout) bill passed with ease (in the Senate).  Sweeteners like more regulations on insurance companies, setting up a ‘Wool Trust Fund’…and even relief for the manufacturers of wooden arrows.  ‘Other goodies intended to attract the votes of individual members of Congress include $192 million for the rum producers of Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands, $128 million for car racing tracks, $33 million for corporations operating in American Samoa, and $10 million for small film and television productions,’ says ABC's Jake Tapper.”

- Andrew Davis, Director of Communications, Libertarian Party, 10/2/08

Michelle Malkin says about Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson, "This is a man, in other words, whose crap sandwich should be taken with a huge grain of salt."

Getting credit is not a constitutional right. Preserving home ownership should not be a government imperative to be pursued at all costs. The House faces a choice: Put the gun down and give our economic problems the time they deserve to get fixed -- or fork over untold billions to a thoroughly debunked Foxy Loxy and his den of wolves.

Frank Salvato provides this gem:

Martin Masse of the National Post may have said it best:

 

“In his Communist Manifesto, published in 1848, Karl Marx proposed 10 measures to be implemented after the proletariat takes power, with the aim of centralizing all instruments of production in the hands of the state. Proposal Number Five was to bring about the ‘...centralization of credit in the banks of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.’ If he were to rise from the dead today, Marx might be delighted to discover that most economists and financial commentators, including many who claim to favor the free market, agree with him.”

 

God save the United States Senate.

On a side note, MRE's, ammo cans, survivalist supplies, materials to grow your own food and put up security fences, water filters,are flying off the shelves.  There's nothing wrong with being prepared.  Personal responsibility makes a difference no matter what the problem.  (Remember Katrina and New Orleans???)

The consensus is this bill will pass today.

Chapter Thirty-Nine

    The old ketch left the shore with a groan and the only force that successfully kept the waves from pouring over her gunwale was the water seeping in between her planks. Seth had taken the tiller while Haytham and Jonas diligently applied force to the oars. Only Muhammad remained useless, positioning himself near the bow where his rifle remained at the ready.

    With the wind increasing drastically, it was decided that there would be no need to tend to the worn canvas sails and so they would run under bare pole. It was a thought that unnerved Jonas, who believed that ships, rather boats, were meant to seek shelter during inclement weather, not actively engage it.

    Seth ignored his companion’s fears; there could be no way of dismissing his concerns in a language he could understand and which would not raise the suspicion of the Arabs. So, for the sake of anything else, Seth merely offered a vocal prayer to Allah and a silent plea to God that they would find their way over to Russia in one piece.

    The craft in which they sailed held no concerns regarding either bravery or survival and it simply creaked as the waves pushed it onto its port side and groaned as it tried to right itself back towards starboard. It was ten meters long, as best as Jonas could judge and had the weather been calm quite roomy for the four men.

    In blue seas and sunny weather, a bit of paint here and some caulking there would undoubtedly leave one with a romantic heart. Jonas, unfortunately, was nowhere near waxing poetically and the green seas crashing against the shabbily constructed hull turned his gut three times for every roll of the boat.
    Whitecaps soon began to appear as they left the confines of the shore and the harrowing wind drove spray off the crests like the whiskers of Satan and pummeled everything that stood in its way.

    Jonas fought with his oar before finally succumbing to defeat and hunkered down upon the creaking floorboards that were anything but dry in the chaotic environment. He looked around; scrutinized the others more for the effect of keeping his mind away from thoughts of imminent death and he did not like what he saw.

    Seth braced himself against the starboard side, positioning himself between the bench and the hull. It was the only way in which he could apply sufficient pressure against the tiller; the force of the water literally deforming the oak as he tried in vain to impart some steerage into their voyage. Young Haytham gripped the port oar like a child possessed. His face glowed with fear, his head shook, and the sweat erupting from his pores mixed indiscreetly with the seawater crashing over their bodies. Jonas was mildly amused that during such a chaotic event, the archaic oar had become more soothing to the Arab student than had the rifle that he continuously clutched beforehand.

    Only Muhammad, the vile Sorcerer, seemed to ignore the savagery of the storm. His position in the bow appeared to cause him little discomfort or even danger. He simply sat there, never once bracing himself for the continuance of the waves. Jonas knew that it wasn’t natural; no man could sit upright in a vessel tossed about by an encroaching gale. No human, that was.

    Regardless of which way the storm shoved the tiny boat, Muhammad’s rifle kept pointing directly towards the two Americans, an observation that unnerved Jonas more than the towering waves. The tall Arab just seemed relaxed in the fracas; his flesh even took on a definite reddish hue while his eyes remained devilishly orange in comparison.

    As the storm increased in ferocity, Jonas thought that he could see a cocoon envelope around Muhammad. The driving rain, the searing spray, the pelting waves all seemed to bend around the man’s figure like some demonic apparition. Jonas found the sight unbearable and thrust his head down into his chest to pray.

   

Oh, Lord God; Destroy this man called Muhammad and free us from his hideous presence.
