I have blog at http://malaysiatoday.blogspot.com The letter was heavily censored/editted before being published. I am in a Muslim majority country, I am a minority. This is the original letter, without being editted.
I refer to the letter by US treating Muslims shoddily Arbibi Ashoy
http://www.malaysiakini.com/letters/28369 Most of the time he writes
about Islam, with very constricted views on how people perceive the
actions of Muslims. First of all of the Sep 11 hijackers were not
Hindus, Christians, Buddhists, or anyone for that matter but Muslims.
3,000 Americans of all faiths were slaughtered.So can you blame the
Americans. The Americans know that textbooks in Islamic countries
countries demonises the West, for example in Saudi Arabia where Saudi
schoolchildren are being taught to disparage Christianity and Judaism
in a textbook issued by the education
ministry.http://www.guardian.co.uk/saudi/story/0,11599,1260867,00.html
The difference between the Muslims and Non-Muslims is their beliefs,
Muslims preach intolerance, discrimination and the superiority of
their creed. The concept of "diversity" based on religious belief is a
prerogative of Islamic societies. They don't see human beings as
individuals with a cultural, historical and social background, but
only as Muslims or as Kuffar (Kafirs). Muslims should understand, once
and for all, that for Westerners, the word "Christian" is not an
identity but a belief system. Muslims see themselves as distinct from
the rest of mankind and adhere to a strict religious apartheid. The
separation of the Ummah (the Muslims) and the Kuffar is an essential
part of their belief.
http://www.faithfreedom.org/oped/StefaniaA40713.htm Here is one of the
many verses that cause the Americans to treat Muslims shoddily 005.051
YUSUFALI: O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for
your friends and protectors: They are but friends and protectors to
each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is
of them. Verily Allah guideth not a people unjust. What the Koran
actually teaches
http://www.faithfreedom.org/Articles/quran_teaches.htm
They do contribute to their own dilemma, CAIR their mainstream
advocate of civil rights for Islam, is a supporter of terrorists
organization.CAIR: 'Moderate' friends of terror
http://www.danielpipes.org/article/394 There is no other country on
earth where freedom of religion is not just a slogan, it actually
happens in the US. Okay, how about freedom of religion in Saudi
Arabia, Syria, Pakistan, Malaysia and all Muslim countries on earth,
get my drift ? What the Muslims do in the US, is not what the Chinese
and Indians do in Malaysia ? They want to be a separate entity, not
Americans but being the Ummah is the priority. In what other faith
when you are citizen of a country, you are discouraged to fight
against your own faith, when in actual fact you are defending you very
own country against memebrs of your own faith, who are attacking your
country.Look at some of the contributions of Muslims Ramzi Yousef: He
arrived from Pakistan with an Iraqi passport but no U.S. visa.
Claiming political asylum, he was briefly detained for illegal entry,
then allowed to enter the United States because the immigration
authorities lacked space to hold him. Yousef went on to plot the 1993
World Trade Center bombing, for which he now sits convicted in a U.S.
jail.
Mir Aimal Kansi: A Pakistani who received a business visa in 1991 to
enter the United States, despite his known history as an Islamist.
After arrival, he claimed political asylum based on his ethnic
minority status in Pakistan. He obtained a driver's license and an
AK-47, then went on a murderous rampage outside the CIA headquarters
in January 1993, killing two employees and wounded three others. He
was convicted in 1997 of capital murder and nine other charges, for
which he was executed on November 14, 2002 by lethal injection.
Gazi Ibrahim Abu Mezer: A Palestinian who entered the United States
illegally from Canada in about 1996, claiming political asylum based
on alleged persecution by Israel. Released on a $5,000 bond (posted by
a another illegal alien), he skipped his asylum hearing. In June 1997,
a federal immigration judge ordered Mezer to leave the country on a
"voluntary departure order," which Mezer ignored. He was arrested in
July 1997 as he was about to bomb the New York City subways, for which
he now sits convicted in a U.S. jail.
Nuradin M. Abdi: A Somali, whom prosecutors allege received a bogus
"refugee" status in 1999, then fraudulently obtained a refugee travel
document which he used to fly to Ethiopia for Al-Qaeda's jihad
training. On returning he began plotting to blow up a shopping mall in
Ohio, for which he now sits accused in a U.S. jail. Omar Abdel Rahman:
The blind Egyptian sheikh who, although already on a terrorism "watch
list" when he arrived in the United States, nevertheless acquired a
tourist visa and then permanent residency. When it was understood who
he was, this was revoked and Abdel Rahman applied for political
asylum. He was allowed to remain while his application was being
considered, which time he used to guide his disciples who blew up the
World Trade Center in 1993 and then plotted to blow up New York City
landmarks in 1995; he now sits convicted in a U.S. jail for the latter
offense.
Hesham Mohamed Ali Hedayet: An Egyptian who entered the United States
as a tourist in 1992, he then applied for political asylum, claiming
discrimination on account of his religious beliefs – shorthand for
being an Islamist, indeed a member of al-Gama'a al-Islamiyya ("the
Islamic Group"), a group engaged in terrorism since 1981 and listed in
the State Department's 1992 edition of Patterns of Global Terrorism.
The immigration authorities ruled against his asylum application in
March 1995 and formally began the deportation procedures but Hedayet
disappeared. In July 2002, Hedayet engaged in a shooting spree against
the El Al counter at Los Angeles International Airport, killing two
before being shot dead himself.
Here are some of the pioneers of CAIR who supported terror and were
arrested, Rafeeq Jaber – president, Islamic Association for Palestine,
a Hamas offshoot.Mahmoud A Nimer - member, board of directors, Islamic
Academy of Florida, Tampa (an Islamic school established by Sami
al-Arian; al-Arian's indictment indicates the school was used as a
base of support for the Palestinian Islamic Jihad).Ayman Osman -
member, board of directors, Islamic Academy of Florida, Tampa;
employer of Hatem Fariz, arrested on terrorism charges and charged
with being a member of Palestinian Islamic Jihad.Abdurahman Alamoudi,
"a well-heeled advocate who had represented American Muslims in White
House meetings,was arrested on terrorism-related
charges.http://www.danielpipes.org/article/1841
The Muslims are better traeted in the US than the Non-Muslims in
Malaysia, where they suffer from "Religious Apartheid", remember you
once said "Chaos if Muslims allowed religious freedom"
http://www.malaysiakini.com/letters/28097 Well, Muslims in Malaysia
are converting to other religions whether you like it or not. Remember
this with regards to the case of the non-muslim children with a muslim
father and non-Muslim mother in court. Arbibi, you argued that it is
best for the kids to be Muslims in this country because only then will
they be given the maximum possible opportunity to progress. You, deep
in your heart , practise religious apartheid, a racist, dying to get
out.
The Muslims in the US have a better deal, than anywhere else on the
planet. That, my fellow is fact.
