I came across this on a blog which seems to be run by dogs - little bulldogs that is:
Finally, we have the very vocal MPACUK. In a piece today they blame our foreign policy for radicalising young Muslims (something which we know not to be true because most of these Muslims were involved with Al Muhajiroun pre-9/11). They also blame the Mosque leaders for not doing anything. At least we can agree on the latter.
What I find interesting is that people only seem to think that after 9/11 foreign policy became an issue.
Puh-lease!
Israeli occupation of Palestine has been going on for decades and some politicians have backed Israeli. Now I'm pretty sure that has something to do with foreign policy.
It worries me that alot of people on this earth do not seem to find anything wrong with what Israel is doing. The Palestinians don't have a voice. I bet some Non-Muslims and Muslims don't even consider it a problem - now that is disturbing.
We need vocal groups like MPACUK to say something - the killings of the Palestinians can't continue in silence anymore - we have do something. It's time to rise up and live up to the title that Allah gave us - Muslim.
It's time for those that have an ounce of humanity in them to stand them. Because if we don't stand for something, we'll fall for anything.

All it took was an email....
I'm so pleased alhamdulillah, all it took was an email!
I bet you're wondering what I'm on about - well, it's regarding this action alert by MPACUK that WideAwake put up (here's the link).
Basically, the BBC were wrong in saying that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel when it isn't, and alhamdulillah, people who cared decided to do something.
And this was the BBC's response:
Thank you for your e-mail.
'Football Focus' regrets any offence caused by the film broadcast ahead of the Israel v England football match. The purpose of the piece was to look at the state of football in Israel and particularly Tel Aviv, where the European Championship qualifying game was being held.
It was while comparing the young, vibrant city of Tel Aviv with the more historic Jerusalem that our reporter Damian Johnson inadvertently referred to it as the capital.
We re-iterate our apologies.
Please be assured that your feedback has been fully registered on our daily audience log which is made available to the production team involved and senior BBC management.
Thank you, once more, for taking the time to contact the BBC.
Regards
BBC Information
I say, if we get more people to voice their concerns we could (insha'allah) get the BBC to admit their mistake publicly. I'm just so pleased - because it shows to all those pacified Muslims who think that nothing can be done, that no, something can be done, only and only by the Will of Allah ofcourse, but all that Allah asks if us is to take the step and He will bring the victory.
So, next time you see a campaign worth running, go for it, because if it's for a good cause then victory is yours! Allahukbar!

Shaykh Abdal Hakim Murad - Contentions 11
Props to Brother Haseeb for posting this.
These are the latest Contentions by Shaykh Abdal Hakim Murad.
My favourite: Peace without justice is not peace at all
I think this is so true in the modern day. I mean there are so many Muslims who are happy with the lives they live, or are too busy 'perfecting' themselves to care about children in Darfur, Palestine and even in our own backyards.
The older generations of Muslims have failed us, not the great Muslims of the past, I mean Muslims in their 40s or above. They allowed the atrocities to continue while they concentrated on their own needs. We as human beings need to do something. There are so many good organisations (Muslim and non-Muslim) out there who are doing something like: MCB, MPACUK, ISB (although ISB really sucks :p) and Stop the War! . We, too, need to stand up

Iran will be attacked - at precisely 4am on the 6th of April
The drums of hate are beating again, and the army of hate has Iran in its sights.
WASHINGTON DC, -- The long awaited US military attack on Iran is now on track for the first week of April, specifically for 4 am on April 6, the Good Friday opening of Easter weekend, writes the well-known Russian journalist Andrei Uglanov in the Moscow weekly “Argumenty Nedeli.” Uglanov cites Russian military experts close to the Russian General Staff for his account.
The attack is slated to last for 12 hours, according to Uglanov, from 4 am until 4 pm local time. Friday is the sabbath in Iran. In the course of the attack, code named Operation Bite, about 20 targets are marked for bombing; the list includes uranium enrichment facilities, research centers, and laboratories.
The first reactor at the Bushehr nuclear plant, where Russian engineers are working, is supposed to be spared from destruction. The US attack plan reportedly calls for the Iranian air defense system to be degraded, for numerous Iranian warships to be sunk in the Persian Gulf, and for the most important headquarters of the Iranian armed forces to be wiped out.
The attacks will be mounted from a number of bases, including the island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. Diego Garcia is currently home to B-52 bombers equipped with standoff missiles. Also participating in the air strikes will be US naval aviation from aircraft carriers in the Persian Gulf, as well as from those of the Sixth Fleet in the Mediterranean. Additional cruise missiles will be fired from submarines in the Indian Ocean and off the coast of the Arabian peninsula. The goal is allegedly to set back Iran’s nuclear program by several years, writes Uglanov, whose article was reissued by RIA-Novosti in various languages, but apparently not English, several days ago. The story is the top item on numerous Italian and German blogs, but so far appears to have been ignored by US websites.
Observers comment that this dispatch represents a high-level orchestrated leak from the Kremlin, in effect a war warning, which draws on the formidable resources of the Russian intelligence services, and which deserves to be taken with the utmost seriousness by pro-peace forces around the world.
Asked by RIA-Novosti to comment on the Uglanov report, retired Colonel General Leonid Ivashov confirmed its essential features in a March 21 interview: “I have no doubt that there will be an operation, or more precisely a violent action against Iran.” Ivashov, who has reportedly served at various times as an informal advisor to Russian President Vladimir Putin, is currently the vice president of the Moscow Academy for Geopolitical Sciences.
Ivashov attributed decisive importance to the decision of the Democratic leadership of the US House of Representatives to remove language from the just-passed Iraq supplemental military appropriations bill that would have demanded that Bush come to Congress before launching an attack on Iran. Ivashov pointed out that the language was eliminated under pressure from AIPAC, the lobbing group representing the Israeli extreme right, and from Israeli Foreign Minister Tsipi Livni.
“We have drawn the unmistakable conclusion that this operation will take place,” said Ivashov. In his opinion, the US planning does not include a land operation: “ Most probably there will be no ground attack, but rather massive air attacks with the goal of annihilating Iran’s capacity for military resistance, the centers of administration, the key economic assets, and quite possibly the Iranian political leadership, or at least part of it,” he continued.
Ivashov noted that it was not to be excluded that the Pentagon would use smaller tactical nuclear weapons against targets of the Iranian nuclear industry. These attacks could paralyze everyday life, create panic in the population, and generally produce an atmosphere of chaos and uncertainty all over Iran, Ivashov told RIA-Novosti. “This will unleash a struggle for power inside Iran, and then there will be a peace delegation sent in to install a pro-American government in Teheran,” Ivashov continued. One of the US goals was, in his estimation, to burnish the image of the current Republican administration, which would now be able to boast that they had wiped out the Iranian nuclear program.
Among the other outcomes, General Ivashov pointed to a partition of Iran along the same lines as Iraq, and a subsequent carving up of the Near and Middle East into smaller regions. “This concept worked well for them in the Balkans and will now be applied to the greater Middle East,” he commented.
“Moscow must exert Russia’s influence by demanding an emergency session of the United Nations Security Council to deal with the current preparations for an illegal use of force against Iran and the destruction of the basis of the United Nations Charter,” said General Ivashov. “In this context Russia could cooperate with China, France and the non-permanent members of the Security Council. We need this kind of preventive action to ward off the use of force,” he concluded.

I truly hope that Iran isn't attacked, but we've all got to stop kidding ourselves.
I personally think that they are gonna go for Iran, then Syria and then bring on Pakistan.
May Allah protect the innocent and end their suffering - Ameen.

"Reach Out To Israel, Arabs Urged"
I don't think everybody needs to be told as to what is going on in Palestine. Our mothers are being raped there this very second, and another one of our brothers just got shot in the head.
But I can't believe that Arab countries are being asked to reach out to Israel! Below is the article from the BBC
US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has called on Arab nations to reach out to Israel.
Ms Rice was speaking in Jerusalem after three days of meetings with Israeli, Palestinian and Jordanian leaders.
She said Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas had agreed to meet every two weeks.
Ms Rice also said there was a "path of co-operation" with the new Palestinian unity government.
The secretary of state was speaking on the eve of the opening of an Arab League summit in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
'Complex' issues
Ms Rice urged Arab nations to take a more active role in regional peace efforts, although she said the presence of the militant Hamas faction in the Palestinian government made the issues "more complex".
"The Arab states must be reaching out to Israel... to show Israel that they accept its place in the Middle East," she said.
Ms Rice said there could be co-operation with the new Palestinian unity government but stressed again that Hamas must renounce violence.
Hamas has refused to adhere to three key international demands to recognise Israel, renounce violence and honour previous peace agreements.
Ms Rice said Mr Olmert and Mr Abbas would meet regularly and that she would attend some of the meetings.
"They achieved something, which is the very regularised meetings between the two of them, in which they will not just talk about their day-to-day issues, but also about a political horizon," she said.
Ms Rice said it was "not inconceivable" for a peace deal to be reached before the end of US President George W Bush's tenure.
But she added: "We're not yet at the... [stage] of final status" negotiations.
I can't believe this - it's like they're saying "why don't you Arabs do more? - it's all your fault".
Yes the Arab nations should do more - they should help their Palestinian brothers and sisters by forcing the Western countries to see that they can't be paid up (as so many of the arabs have already) and that they want Israel to no longer exist - everyone can live in Palestine in peace. If it was possible in the past then surely it is possible now.
The part that really made my blood boil though was when Condoleeza Rice said:
"The Arab states must be reaching out to Israel... to show Israel that they accept its place in the Middle East," she said.
Israel is murdering innocent people day in and day out. The only crime of the Palestinians is that they are Palestinians.
But how do we stop this? How can we end the killing of the Palestinians?
The answer lies in our mental ressurection. We shouldn't stay oblivious to the butchering of the Palestinians. It's our foreign policy (along with America's ) which allows Israel to get away with murder.
Change the foreign policy, then you change the future of the Palestinans to something that they can look forward to.
Our mosques and our MPs have too long allowed injustice to prevail - now we have to hold them to account and show Allah that we are Muslims who do care and want to please Him.
If we politically activate then we can ensure that Palestinians get the justice that they deserve.

Remembering Malcolm X
Today's the 21st of March and on this very date 43 years ago a man was martyred in the cause of the Truth - I speak of none other than Brother El Hajj Malik al Shabazz (aka Malcolm X).
I'm been reading his autobiography recently, and it is absolutely amazing (it can be purchased from here).
He spoke the Truth with no fear and he really was, and is, a great role model for people who want to make a change for a brighter future - may Allah bless him for all the good he did and all the good he has done after his death. Allah says about the martyrs that they are alive, and as we can clearly see, Malcolm X's legacy lives on and inspires so many people to the straight path even today.
Here's a short video about Malcolm X - enjoy:

20th March 2003
No I didn't get the date wrong, but I just wanted to remind everyone that it's been 4 years since America attacked Iraq and ,well, got away with it.
No proof, no truth, all spoof.
So many lives were lost and now it seems Iran will be next.
No proof, no truth, all spoof.
So many lives were lost and now it seems Iran will be next.
We shouldn't let that happen.
We can't let that happen.
We CAN do something, but we should realise that it all depends on politics and on our (the UK's) foreign policy. Our elected 'leaders' are letting us down and we should hold them to account.
Remember, they work for us, not the other way around.
I know it sounds like I'm ordering you guys to do this, but it's just that I read this action alert by MPACUK (here's the link), and it made me realise that sitting around for our butchering leaders to change their stances by themselves ain't gonna happen. We gots to teach them a lesson :P
At least let's try to make a difference -as victory is for the believers, and Allah loves those that strive in His Cause.
