Speak out Muslims!
You profess to love The Prophet (p.b.u.h.), but when asked to denounce the madmen who perpetrate, in the name of Islam and Jihad, these same things that he forbade, you resort to political rhetoric and phony rulings by gangster Mullahs and Wahabi Islamic-Fascists who care for nothing but their own power....

Judge’s family slain: Bush administration keeps silent on terrorist killings in US
President George W. Bush swore in his new Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff March 3, bragging about his administration having “busted up terrorist cells around the globe,” while warning that “Al Qaeda still hopes to attack us on our own soil.” He sought to dramatize his remarks by sharing a dubious piece of intelligence that had Osama bin Laden urging Abu Musab al-Zarqawi—blamed by Washington for many terrorist attacks in Iraq—to plan actions in other countries, including the US.

Arab Bashing Reaches Low With Thomas Slur By Coulter
WASHINGTON, 2 March 2005 — Arab bashing reached a new low in Washington last week when Ann Coulter, a loudmouthed, mean-spirited, pro-Bush columnist, decided to defend the White House press pass controversy over faux-reporter James Guckert (a.k.a. Jeff Gannon) by writing in her syndicated column: “Press passes can’t be that hard to come by if the White House allows that old Arab Helen Thomas to sit within yards of the president.”...

Letter to Ca Governor - Stanislaus County Law Enforcement's Racial Profiling
Dear Governor Schwarzenegger,
What the Ceres Chief of Police officer DeWerk is failing to satisfy is a submission to the law. If indeed it is a fact that a majority of Gang members are Latino, that certainly could not be an excuse for illegal acts of profiling by the Stanislaus County law enforcement. Though most Gang members may very well be Latino, that in no way means that most Latinos are Gang members....

Hip Hop community joins protest of radio racism
NEW YORK — Protesters were on the street outside the office of Hot 97 here Feb. 14, the second day back on the job for suspended morning show deejays.
The “Miss Jones in the Morning” crew on WQHT-FM sparked outrage last month when it played the “Tsunami Song,” a racist parody of “We Are the World” that made fun of the victims of last December’s South Asian tidal wave that killed almost 300,000 people. “We Are the World” had brought an array of stars together in the 1980s to aid victims of ...

The Undiscovered Malcolm X: Stunning New Info on the Assassination
On this the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Malcolm X, we spend the hour with historian Manning Marable who has spent a decade working on a new biography of Malcolm X. He is one of the few historians to see the three missing chapters from "The Autobiography of Malcolm X" that he says paint a very different picture than the book with Alex Haley and Spike Lee's film. Marable has also had unprecedented access to Malcolm's family and documents that shed new light on the involve...
