Since this is a new post, I will take the opportunity to show the Israeli arrogance and cowardice.

It’s unbelievable how they exert so much control! May Allah Destroy the Zionists!
By the way nice post Amad mashAllah!

Can you guys not submit new digg/reddit links of stuff that have already been submitted. Many of the stuff already have been posted. It loses the credibility of the submitter.

Actually, MR, if I find an existing digg/reddit on the topic (the picture post is of this post, but the video digg goes directly to the video), I usually will use that. So, I didn’t find the appropriate links here…
if you have better digg/reddit/su links to the galloway video, post them here and i’ll reroute them.

I was listening to a lecture, and the speaker stated that these people killed their own PROPHETS…Should we even be surprised about what they do to the Muslims?
SubhanAllah.

I visit reddit daily more than digg and a lot of the stuff MM submits was already submitted 2-3 days before.

It is one of the timeless laws of politics that accusations of the dominant party’s propaganda are actually indictments of their own behavior.

Nyan. It should be easy to understand, this use of human shields. In Gaza, the terrorist-politicalleaders (neh, they are both) do not group themselves into army barracks. Instead, they often spend time at home. As this is the only predictable place to find them, there are accusations of them using kids as human shields, because they go home at night to sleep.
If you take the perspective of an actual soldier, you can see how this makes sense.
And exactly why it is so outrageous — on both sides. Surely if you know your kids are in danger from being around you in a warzone, you would move them to your relatives’ abode? (note: this may not be possible)

Lisa, I received the image in an email, did not know about the date. As you mentioned, the picture and its message is still relevant, even today.

Salaam, it is absolutely amazing that a non muslim speaks so bravely and boldly…while our own muslim congressmen cant utter a word…only because their jobs might go…subhanallah…

I don’t know if most of you living in America/Canada know anything about George Galloway. mashAllah, he is the most truthful and intelligent MP(Member of Parliament) here in uk and who is the voice of millions. you only have to listen to his live radio show once to see how intelligent and wonderful character he has.
This is one of his famous interviews with british media where he thrashes the reporter.

Sorry if this has already been suggested. How about MM doing an interview with ‘Gorgeous George’ particularly on his work on the Palestine Issue? I’m sure he’d be willing
