Title: Louis Farrakahn Goes to Iraq
Post by: Gunthr on July 09, 2002, 03:17:25 PM
Excerpt:

     "Mr. Farrakhan held talks with Islamic Affairs Minister Abdul Munem Saleh on "ways to confront the American threats against Iraq," INA reported.
     The agency quoted the black Muslim leader as saying "the Muslim American people are praying to the almighty God to grant victory to Iraq."


     :rolleyes:

I don't have any problem with LF going to Iraq; I have a problem with him coming back. ;)

Jackson raps Bush, Ashcroft
By Steve Miller
THE WASHINGTON TIMES


     HOUSTON — The Rev. Jesse Jackson yesterday called President Bush and Attorney General John Ashcroft "the most threatening combination in our lifetime," at the 93rd annual convention of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Top Stories
• Bush promises tougher SEC
• Iraq says Farrakhan tells of U.S. Muslims' support
• Area rail lines look to cut ties to Amtrak
• IRA uses Colombia to test new weapons
• 'Friendly fire' came amid hunt for Taliban
• Mrs. Dole campaigns like incumbent
• Spawn of 'Frankenfish'?
 

     Mr. Jackson also called the president's comparison of a recent Supreme Court ruling favoring school vouchers in Cleveland to the 1954 desegregation order in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas "unliterate" and "fuzzy history."

LF is a racist too. Ain't freedom wonderful?

This caught my eye:
Quote
Mr. Farrakhan, heading a Nation of Islam delegation, also met with Health Minister Omeed Mubarak, who briefed him on the "effects of the sanctions on Iraq and the health reality represented by the death of 1.6 million people a year because of food and medical shortages," INA said.
     Iraq has been living under economic sanctions imposed by the United Nations since its invasion of Kuwait in August 1990


Now the 1987 population of Iraq was about 17 million. At a loss of 1.6 million per year since the sanctions were imposed, that is a total loss of 16 million plus since the Gulf War. Is anyone left in Iraq? :eek:

I say let that fanatic stay over there with the ones he wants to be buddies with.  Then maybe he can help them pay the price when the likely invasion of Iraq occurs.

I think its a good thing that he goes. If he doesnt realize exactly what kind of a PR nightmare pictures of him kissing Saddam Hussein is, then he is in for a pretty big shock soon.

Might help marginalize his black moslem movement.
