U.S.-based Imam Urges Muslims to Join the Gaza Battlefield

SNIPPET: "A North Texas imam is calling on Muslims to take up arms in defense of Palestinians in Gaza. Sheikh Mohamed El-Moctar El-Shinqiti, director of the Islamic Center of South Plains in Lubbock, Texas, participated in an online chat, "Fatwas on Gaza," at the web site IslamOnline.net. El-Shinqiti encouraged readers to fight - or if they can't, to send money to those who are fighting - in response to six out of the eight questions posed to him in the online chat. When asked what can be done to help the people in Gaza, El-Shinqiti emphasized war over sending food or medicine or other supplies that might directly help people:

"For Muslims who have access to the battlefield, their duty is to join the resistance to defend the oppressed. For those who don't have access to the battlefield, their duty is to use all possible ways of lending support for the oppressed such as donation, the media, communication and first and foremost du'a'."

Taking El-Shinqiti's advice would mean joining forces with Hamas, a designated terrorist organization."

“’Iranians Are Pro-Israel’ - Part I”
by Nissan Ratzlav-Katz

SNIPPET: “(IsraelNN.com) An Iranian pro-democracy activist tells Israel National News that the image of Persians as fanatical fundamentalist Muslims is, for the most part, incorrect. However, he warns, the people of Iran will most likely join together in opposing any attack on their country out of a deep sense of patriotism.”

‘Iranians Are Pro-Israel’ - Part II
by Nissan Ratzlav-Katz

SNIPPET: “(IsraelNN.com) The following is Part II of an interview Israel National News conducted in recent days with Amil Imani, an Iranian-born pro-democracy activist currently living in North America. The discussion focused on an effort to understand Iran at this critical time in history.

[Click here for Part I of the INN interview with Iranian dissident Amil Imani.]

INN: What do you think would be the reaction of Iranians to an Israeli attack to take out the nuclear sites in Iran?

Imani: It would be a mixed reaction outcome which would not be easy to envisage. Some people think that it is our right to have the technology, but not under the helm of the irresponsible present regime. That includes me.

Therefore, it is obvious that many people will not appreciate an attack on the nuclear facilities in Iran that will turn our national wealth into dust. “

“Three Katyusha rockets strike open areas near Kiryat Shmona”
By JPOST.COM STAFF

“At least three Katyusha rockets fired from Lebanon landed near Kiryat Shmona on Wednesday morning, the second rocket attack from Lebanon in less than a week.

While security forces continued to search for the impact sites of the rockets, there were no immediate reports of wounded or damage. The army launched a counter strike, firing artillery shells at the assumed location of the Katyusha launchers.

Following the strike, the Home Front Command ordered all residents of the north to stay close to bomb shelters in case there was a repeat attack.

Several incidents of this nature have occurred since the onset of Operation Cast Lead more than two weeks ago. Last Thursday, three Katyusha rockets struck Nahariya, lightly wounding two people in a retirement home.”

“Israel’s Fight For Survival”
By Bruce Thornton
FrontPageMagazine.com | Wednesday, January 14, 2009

SNIPPET: “Israel’s fight for survival is not only against Hamas, Hezbollah, and their state sponsors Syria and Iran. Equally formidable, if more insidious, are those in the West whose virulent hatred of Israel imperils her existence. This antipathy among Western academics, commentators, and reporters is itself a reflection of the larger moral and intellectual corruption that endangers not just Israel but Western civilization.”
