The US war with Iran has already begun by Scott Ritter Sunday 19 June 2005 12:06 PM GMT Americans, along with the rest of the world, are starting to wake up to the uncomfortable fact that President George Bush not only lied to them about the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq (the ostensible excuse for the March 2003 invasion and occupation of that country by US forces), but also about the very process that led to war. On 16 October 2002, President Bu...

This article is meant to educate and inform the readers about history and facts about Saudi Arabia's history and current events that affect both non-Muslims and Muslims around the world. Saudi Arabia is home to the world's holiest cites in Mecca and Medinah and should above all be held to the highest standard of Islam and for mankind, but has failed completely on all levels to follow the Qur'an and to be a peaceful and positive force in both the non-Muslim and Muslim world that we are e...
I was shocked and outraged when I first heard of this case on the news because it was a story done so well that seemed to be a clear case of the victim being arrested for no reason. But then Iasked myself some questions and wondered if there could be more to the story? Why would the UAE and Dubai who admittedly depend on foreign investment and Western tourism which they have worked so hard to attract do this? Some less than reputable groups would gleam that "see...
I do not agree with people complaining that Uighur's are protesting. It is your right to protest if you want, and there were a lot of people bashing Uighur's for this. I do not agree with some of the racists bashing Uighur's, unfortunately in Canada there are lots of racists who do not like new Canadians. But what I do not understand, is that I cannot find any solid information about why some Uighur's are upset with China. I have heard the accusations, but hav...

The Uighurs by the East Turkestan Independence movement (exhiled Uighurs linked to this listed terrorist group). Some of the facts that aren't bein...
My response to a viewpoint article from Tom Velk on CBC http://www.cbc.ca/news/viewpoint/vp_velk/20050805.html I agree that countries should not allow hate-mongering and other illegal activities from any people but to point the finger at every immigrant and belittle Islam while ignoring other forms of terrorism and the true causes is irresponsible and anti-Islamic in nature. Throughout the world, whether it be the news or on-line forums, people are quick to ...
The Christian Effect Areeb Yasir Christian organizations are everywhere, helping and giving to the poor. They are in South Africa, India, Afghanistan, Mexio and Iran. They are everywhere, trying to help everyone. But what they are doing in exchange is preaching Christianity, encouraging Muslims and other believers from different faiths to become Christian.
