News
America's mouthpiece, the UN special envoy for Syria, Staffan de Mistura stated on Friday 12th February in Vienna that; "President Assad is part of the solution" and "...only the Islamic State extremist group benefits from the Syrian war."
Comment
This statement paves the way for Assad to remain despite 250,000+ martyred by the murderous Baathist regime. And in using the heinous crimes of the criminal gang Daesh headed by Baghdadi the attempt by De Mistura is now to bring Assad in from the cold and again make him a player on the chess board controlled by America.
It seems the special envoy is deaf, dumb and blind to the cries and rivers of blood that flowed in Douma City in the last 10 days caused by Assad's barrel bombs.
Did this news from Douma City in which no less than 101 civilians were martyred by the regime's killing campaign which ensued on 5 February not reach de Mistura?? The 101 martyred in Douma City included 19 children and 20 women as reported by SNHR.
The number of civilians martyred not just in Douma City but on a daily basis in Syria over the last 4 years by the regime clearly indicates that there is a systematic policy to kill the people of Syria until they renounce the blessed revolution.
The special envoy de Mistura follows in the footsteps of his predecessor's Lakhdar Brahimi and Kofi Annan who were also silent and turned a blind eye to the genocide openly committed by the murdering regime. This was all done under the watchful eye of America as it planned a replacement for Assad at the time.
According to international law which the western nations claim to uphold, it is stated that the crime of extrajudicial killing can be classified as a crime against humanity, and in the case of Syria it is clear that the Assad regime is deliberately targeting the civilian population.
Thus where does de Mistura stand with regards to this? Where does the UN stand as a whole with regards to what the people have demanded "al-Ummah turīd Khilāfah Islāmiyyah" and "the people want to overthrow the regime and all its symbols" which has been clear from day one of the blessed revolution? Or does this not compute with the UN especially as within the UN's charter they view ‘Democracy as a universal norm'. And thus they use this as a cover to legitimise a ruler and his regime and un-legitimise it as they see fit denying the demands of the people.
It is clear that the UN since its inception in 1945 has been and continues to be a tool used by the leading nation's most notably America to further her interests.
Securing interests and regional strategies are the currency of the day where sanctity of life has no value to America and those it places as an intermediary to discuss on its behalf.
In an infamous statement we recall the words of Henry Kissinger when he said regarding the Khmer Rouge: ""How many people did (Khmer Rouge Foreign Minister Ieng Sary) kill? Tens of thousands? You should tell the Cambodians (i.e., Khmer Rouge) that we will be friends with them. They are murderous thugs, but we won't let that stand in the way. We are prepared to improve relations with them. Tell them the latter part, but don't tell them what I said before." (November 26, 1975 Meeting with Thai Foreign Minister.)
And a point should be made regarding those who appear to be against the Syrian regime but who are in full cahoots with America in fulfilling her plan for the region. These are the rulers of the neighbouring Muslim lands i.e. Turkey's Kemalist Sultan Erdogan, Jordan's PlayStation King Abdullah and others along with the SNC headed by Khalid Khoja.
Allah (swt) reminds us,
((مَثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّخَذُواْ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ أَوۡلِيَآءَ كَمَثَلِ ٱلۡعَنڪَبُوتِ ٱتَّخَذَتۡ بَيۡتً۬اۖ وَإِنَّ أَوۡهَنَ ٱلۡبُيُوتِ لَبَيۡتُ ٱلۡعَنڪَبُوتِۖ لَوۡ ڪَانُواْ يَعۡلَمُونَ))
"The likeness of those who take as Auliya (protectors or helpers) other than Allah is the likeness of a spider who builds (for itself) a house; but verily, the frailest of houses is the spider's house - if they but knew." [TMQ Al-Ankabut: 41]

Today, 17 February 2015, an evil bomb blast targeted the headquarters of Lahore's police forces, near the main gate of the Police Civil Lines, Qillah Gujar Singh, Lahore. At least eight were killed and dozens were injured. As usual shadowy figures claiming representation of the Muslims of the tribal region, announced their responsibility for the terrible killing of Muslims.
News:
On 30th January 2015 Press TV reported on starvation of more than 200,000 Somali children. While more than 38,000 children are at "high risk" of dying due to severe malnutrition. Similarly a great proportion of the population is still experiencing grave food insecurity after over two decades of war.
UN Special Representative for Somalia Nicholas Kay argued that the international community has lost its focus on the country. Somalia was the hardest hit by a severe drought in 2011 that affected more than 13 million people across the Horn of Africa. More than 250,000 Somalis died in a famine caused by the drought.
Comment:
Somali conflict is one among many calamities facing Muslim Ummah. This conflict has been created by the western superpowers in order to reach their interests. Apart from the western objective to tap Somalis' natural resources, Somali is also located at strategic position on the corridor of the Indian Ocean. The power which takes control of the area will undoubtedly take the entire leadership of the east and central Africa region. This struggle had brought many calamities for the Muslims of the region and its surroundings.
Muslims in Somali and the surrounding regions should treat the failure of the international community to bring peace and stability in the region as the failure of capitalist model of government.
It is absurd to notice that while the world filled with abundant food reserves yet thousands are dying from starvation. It is the capitalist system which starves the Muslims in Somalia as a means to subjugate them. This similar means is used against Muslims in Syria, Burma, Afghanistan and elsewhere.
The Muslims in Somalia desire an Islamic system which will take them out of starvation and caters their welfares and of the entire Ummah. History reminds us how previous caliphs used to give high concern for the affairs of the Islamic Ummah to the extent that many non-Muslims sought refuge in the Muslims land due to its justice and prosperity under the Islamic system. During the reign of the Ottoman Khilafah "Caliphate" in the 1850's the caliph sent several ships loaded with tons of food to relieve starving Irish population. How will be the concern of the Khilafah "Caliphate" should be for the starving population if they are Muslim?

Within the last 24 hours, Denmark has been hit by a series of dramatic events. It is reported that the suspected perpetrator has been killed, so the details will probably remain blurred. Despite this, there has already been an overwhelming amount of statements about this being an attack on Danish values - democracy, freedoms and cohesion of society.
On 10 February 2015, Craig Stephen Hicks brutally shot 3 of his Muslim neighbors in Chapel Hill, NC. Muslims in this country are outraged at this senseless and tragic act of terrorism against Muslims. The victims were newlyweds Deah Shaddy Barakat, 23, and Yusor Mohammad, 21, of Chapel Hill, and her sister, Razan Mohammad Abu-Salha, 19, of Raleigh, NC. May Allah (swt) grant Deah, Yusor and Razan the highest level of Jannah.
This is the latest and most brutal attack on Muslims that has been sweeping the nation over the last several years. Mainstream media initially chose to ignore this incident until they were pressured by outrage in social media. Evidently Muslims are newsworthy only when behind the gun, not in front of it. What is noticeably missing from the rhetoric of the media and authorities is the religious affiliation of the perpetrator, his association with other organizations, and the list of his mentors and associates. In nearly every incident involving a Muslim suspect, Islam and Muslim are heavily emphasized, and links are quickly made to suspected violent organizations, mentors, and associates. Also missing from the news are the voices of Muslim rulers in support of their brothers and sisters killed in hatred. While these same Muslim rulers rushed to condemn the deaths of journalists allegedly killed for insulting the Prophet (saw) as if the blood and lives of those who insult the Prophet (saw) are dearer to them than that of their own brethren.
The family members of the victims vehemently state that this is a hate crime based on previous run-ins with Hicks expressing discontent with his Muslim neighbors. While the media and authorities are downplaying Hicks's resentment against religions and are pointing towards the motive being a dispute over parking. Whether or not Hicks disputed with other neighbors, he chose to kill only the Muslims. Dr. Abu-Salha said his daughter (one of the victims), who lived next door to Hicks and wore a Muslim head scarf, had told her family a week ago that "[Hicks is] a hateful neighbor" and "He hates us for what we are and how we look".
The lack of a strong response from authorities, both local and federal, and the double standards of the media raise deep concerns amongst Muslims in this country for their safety and wellbeing.
While America and the West have been waging a brutal war against Muslims and blaming the victims, the American media has been fanning the flames of hatred. Both conservative and liberal media outlets, including news and entertainment, have been attacking Islam and Muslims at every opportunity. This toxic message is gaining grounds, and it's even being used a political platform by racist politicians. Even minority politicians have seen fit to use Islamophobia and lies against Muslims as a resonating platform. It is this Islamophobic narrative that seeks to portray Islam and Muslims as violent and regressive, in need of policing, all along portraying Muslims as aggressors and the West as its victims. It is this very same Islamophobia that radicalizes some individuals in the West to violently express their contempt for Muslim populations.
As for the Muslims in this country, we must seek safety and security in the Deen of Allah (swt), and we must seek the pleasure and protection of Allah (swt) by putting our trust in Him and obeying His Commands. Neither this atrocity, nor other attacks against Muslims or their property should create any fear amongst Muslims or in any way create a sense of weakness. Nor should Muslims compromise on any part of their Deen. For no harm comes except that which Allah has permitted. Instead, the Muslims must hold fast to the Deen of Allah (swt), for the Muslims in the West are at the forefront carrying the Dawah of Islam directly to the West. We have been honored with the task of taking people from the darkness of the Ignorance to the light of Islam.
((قُلْ لَنْ يُصِيبَنَا إِلَّا مَا كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَنَا هُوَ مَوْلَانَا ۚ وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ))
"Say: Nothing will happen to us except what Allah has decreed for us: He is our Protector: and on Allah let the Believers put their trust." [TMQ 9:51]
