News Corp Under Investigation for Illegal Activity

 

 

(IP) –Watergate journalist Carl Bernstein highlighted the unscrupulous world of Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation in a Newsweek article, “Murdoch’s Watergate?” Bernstein hammers the naive as such: “The hacking scandal currently shaking Rupert Murdoch’s empire will surprise only those who have willfully blinded themselves to that empire’s pernicious influence on journalism in the English-speaking world. Too many of us have winked in amusement at the salaciousness without considering the larger corruption of journalism and politics promulgated by Murdoch Culture on both sides of the Atlantic.”

A Question of Modesty: Banning the Burqa

What is now  known as the “burqa ban” will become law on April 11. French Prime Minister Francois Fillan will see to it that the approximately 2,000 or so Muslim women do not have a choice in donning the face covering known as niqab in any place deemed public domain as defined by government officials. The burqa is a one piece garment that covers the contours of awoman’s body from head to toe; it has a detachable niqab that covers the face, with the exception of the eyes, and it promotes modesty and morality in its wearer. Its colors vary according to culture and preference of the women in different geographical areas.

" UNITED MUSLIMS OF AMERICA"

 

We Muslims know that we cannot stop the hate campaign against Muslims because the enemy of Islam believes that Muslims have become a danger to their existence. We know these enemies are trying to bring about a clash between Muslims and Christians, but that will not happen. We have read the article written by Donna Gehrke-White and Tim Collie, published in Newsmax Magazine, November, 2010, and found it most misleading and incoherent, written by those who do not know much about Islam. The only thing that is evident from this article is that it is the work of one of the hundreds of hate groups which are trying to bring about a clash between Muslims and Christians. It is the cover up of the hatred felt for American Muslims, be they indigenous or settlers.

As the debate rages in the West over the clothing Muslim women should or should not wear, two articles representing  opposite sides of the discussion were published in late January. The London Times’ Dominic Lawson wrote a timely piece in which he quoted Adolf Hitler’s Mein Kampf on the subject of the appearance of Jewish Germans, which was outlandish to him and had no place in the German society.

Codex Alimentarius is Here

Vitamins, minerals and supplements are now considered toxic and therefore harmful and have been banned. A commission sponsored by the United Nations Health Organization, and supported by the U.S Food and Drug Administration have banned over the counter herbs, minerals, and supplements.

As the ball was dropped in Times Square in N.Y symbolizing a new year, so too were the veils lifted on December 31, 2009 when a new law that prohibits all God given natural and healing herbs, foods, and food by-products went into effect. The truth in this case is stranger than fiction. Vitamins, minerals and supplements are now considered toxic and therefore harmful and have been banned. A commission sponsored by the United Nations Health Organization, and supported by the U.S Food and Drug Administration have banned over the counter herbs, minerals, and supplements.

Europe's Identity Crisis: A Growing anti-Muslim Sentiment throughout Europe

It seems that the targeting of Muslims and Islam has become a kind of national theater in France. Unlike theater, however, the disturbing trend can, and will turn ugly – in fact to a degree it already has – if the French government doesn’t get a grip on reality. The world, including France, is a complex, multifaceted and fascinatingly diverse place; it cannot be co-opted to fit national specificities determined by a group of irritable far right racists with a distorted interpretation of themselves and others.
