This was a new low for the anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan. Louis Farrakhan blamed George Bush for the Fort Hood massacre. He also spread hateful anti-American propaganda during his recent interview on Aljazeera. FOX Nation and MEMRI reported: Following are excerpts from an interview with “Nation of Islam” Leader Louis Farrakhan, which aired on Al-Jazeera TV on November 6, 2009. The sub-titles follow the English original, where audible. Interviewer: Let us begin with the most recent development on the American front, and the racial discrimination against Muslims and their persecution – the incident associated with Mr. Nidhal Hassan, a Muslim psychiatrist of Arab origin, who killed 13 soldiers at the US Fort Hood base. To what extent might this incident affect the Muslims in the US and make them targets of persecution? [...] Louis Farrakhan: As you know, since 9/11, in America and in other parts of the world, those anti-Islamic forces have stepped up their efforts to make Muslims… to cause the Muslims to be looked at as uncivilized, savage, or wicked people. This is an attempt by anti-Islamic forces, and some members of the Jewish community, and some members of the Christian community, who have united to condemn Islam and to speak ill of our Prophet Muhammad, and to even go so far as to say that the Muslims worship the devil. [...] It is because, my dear brothers and sisters, Islam was making so much progress in the United States that those anti-Islamic forces are trying to stem the tide of the progress of Islam. [...] This recent unfortunate event, which took place at the Fort Hood base in Texas, has only added fuel to the fire. On behalf of all the Muslims in the Muslim world, we are saddened by the loss of these 13 American soldiers and the thirty others who were wounded in the incident. No human being would be pleased to see that kind of slaughter, coming from a fellow officer in the US army. However, we have to look at Major Nidhal Hassan. What happened to him? What kind of stress was he under? What kind of insults had he borne? [...] When there are Muslims who love America, and who join the armed forces to protect America, and to serve the interests of America, and then America, unfortunately, under the falsehoods of the George. W. Bush administration, launches attacks against Iraq and against Afghanistan, and now, those soldiers are killing Muslims… So when they go to war in Iraq and Afghanistan, the kind of hatred that is built up in the American forces, when they call the Muslims “ragheads” and “desert niggers,” and then, in the Abu Ghureib prison, Muslim women were raped, and Muslim men were sodomized… All this affects Muslims serving in the army. So when you are being insulted by your superior officers or by your fellow soldiers, at some point, a person might break. Unfortunately, I believe this is what happened to Captain Nidhal Hassan.

 From correspondents in Chicago | November 10, 2008
LOUIS Farrakhan, the controversial leader of the Nation of Islam, has hailed US president-elect Barack Obama as an extraordinary leader but warns his victory will stir racial animosity.
Mr Farrakhan, 75, said Senator Obama's presidential candidacy had excited the nation in a way not seen since Robert Kennedy ran for the White House in 1968, and that he had been moved by the "oneness of spirit" he saw among voters, particularly on election night in Chicago.
But he said the country remained "divided and polarised", and he warned that the president-elect faced a daunting task as the nation faces one of the most troubled periods in its history.
Many of the voters that backed Republican Senator John McCain "were older Americans and most reside below the Mason-Dixon line where racial attitudes and traditions die hard", he said in a reference to the American South.
"We can change laws, but it's difficult to change attitudes," he told a congregation of about 1200 people at Mosque Maryam on Chicago's south side.
He cited news reports that gun sales had surged since Senator Obama's electoral victory, and told of how fights reportedly broke out in some schools, with white students chanting "white power", while blacks students chanted "black power".
"I'm sure that many of our people have unfortunately lost their lives because of the absolute hatred that is manifested now that one of our own has risen to such a high office," he told the crowd at the national headquarters of the Nation of Islam.
Mr Farrakhan is the leader of the religious group which rose to national prominence under Malcolm X during the civil rights movement.
He has been an influential voice but often a lightning rod for criticism with his incendiary remarks prompting charges of anti-Semitism and homophobia.
He made headlines with his accusations that the Government deliberately blew up levees in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina in an attempt to wipe out the city's black population. Source: The Australian and Agence France-Presse
 CHICAGO (AP) ― The Nation of Islam, a secretive movement generally closed to outsiders, has planned a rare open-to-the public event at its Chicago-based headquarters in what the Minister Louis Farrakhan deemed a "new beginning" for the group.
Hundreds of religious leaders of different faiths have been invited to the event planned for Sunday, a rededication of the group's historic Mosque Maryam on the city's South Side. Farrakhan is scheduled to speak.
"We have restored Mosque Maryam completely, and we will dedicate it to the universal message of Islam, and the universal aspect of the teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad," Farrakhan said in an invitation letter. "It represents for the Nation of Islam, a new beginning."
The event comes just weeks after the death of Imam W.D. Mohammed, the son of Nation founder Elijah Muhammad who broke with the group and moved thousands of African-Americans toward mainstream Islam.
The Nation purchased the mosque, a former Greek Orthodox church, in 1972 and has since been making renovations. The stately 1948 structure, embellished with a golden dome and topped with an Islamic crescent moon, is adorned with Quranic verses in Arabic.
Experts say opening the mosque's doors to the public is a calculated move.
"It is a very conscious effort to open the mosque up to the community and to rededicate the community to learning about Islam," said Aminah McCloud, a professor of Islamic studies at DePaul University. "Previously, the Nation has been open to people coming to visit it, but its members don't generally go anywhere else ... now there is a concerted effort."
While the Nation has espoused black nationalism and self-reliance since it was founded in the 1930s, in recent years members have reached out to other groups. For instance, the Nation has a Latino liaison and has become involved in immigrant rights rallies and marches. Also, the Minister Ishmael Muhammad, a top assisting minister at the mosque and widely thought to be a potential successor to Farrakhan, has talked about unity between all people, at times speaking in Spanish.
Farrakhan, 75, has haltingly tried to move the Nation toward traditional Islam, which considers the American movement heretical because of its view of Elijah Muhammad as a prophet -- among other novel teachings. Orthodox Islam teaches that there has been no prophet after Prophet Muhammad in the seventh century.
He's also played down some of the group's more controversial beliefs. The Nation of Islam has taught that whites are descended from the devil and that blacks are the chosen people of Allah.
The event on Sunday also wraps up a week of events marking the 13th anniversary of the Million Man March, which Farrakhan began in 1995. That year, hundreds of thousands of people traveled to Washington, D.C. to participate.
On Thursday, Farrakhan spoke to inmates at Cook County jail urging self improvement, atonement and reconciliation, principles the Million Man March promoted.
Those values "can help reduce violence and anti-social behavior ... and have universal significance and will benefit those willing to listen," according to a statement from the Nation.
Farrakhan's Sunday speech will mark his second major public address this year and is among several smaller community and religious events he has attended.
His public appearances have surprised many since in 2006, he seceded leadership to an executive board while recuperating from serious complications from prostate cancer.
In February, Farrakhan appeared at an annual Saviours' Day event in Chicago and called Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama the "hope of the entire world" that the U.S. will change for the better. The Obama campaign quickly denounced Farrakhan's support, because of past comments about Jews that many have called offensive.
In the past months, Farrakhan has attended funeral services of W.D. Mohammed and Jabir Herbert Muhammad, both sons of the late Elijah Muhammad. Source: CBS2 Chicago
By Brian Ross and Rehab El-Buri Sen. Barack Obama's pastor says blacks should not sing "God Bless America" but " God damn America." The Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Obama's pastor for the last 20 years at the Trinity United Church of Christ on Chicago's south side, has a long history of what even Obama's campaign aides concede is "inflammatory rhetoric," including the assertion that the United States brought on the 9/11 attacks with its own "terrorism."In a campaign appearance earlier this month, Sen. Obama said, "I don't think my church is actually particularly controversial." He said Rev. Wright "is like an old uncle who says things I don't always agree with," telling a Jewish group that everyone has someone like that in their family. Rev. Wright married Obama and his wife Michelle, baptized their two daughters and is credited by Obama for the title of his book, "The Audacity of Hope." An ABC News review of dozens of Rev. Wright's sermons, offered for sale by the church, found repeated denunciations of the U.S. based on what he described as his reading of the Gospels and the treatment of black Americans. "The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing 'God Bless America.' No, no, no, God damn America, that's in the Bible for killing innocent people," he said in a 2003 sermon. " God damn America for treating our citizens as less than human. God damn America for as long as she acts like she is God and she is supreme."

Обама при близком рассмотрении
Владимир КОЗЛОВСКИЙ "Ой, мама: Обама!" - обмирают американские девчата при появлении на сцене смуглого стройного мужчины в уже привычной униформе: клубный пиджак, белая сорочка без галстука и микрофон, с которым у Обамы эротические отношения. Слушательницы регулярно теряют сознание на его митингах. Другие, как пятидесятники, начинают говорить гласолалиями. Мне лично слушать его скучно и смешно, и я бы охотнее слушал Жириновского. Но Обама завораживает миллионы американцев своими сладкими речами, которые надо слушать в сопровождении органа и в которых много слов о "надежде" и "мечтах", но мало специфики. А та, какая есть, живо напоминает о том, что он самый левый член американского Сената, левее даже вермонтского социалиста Берни Сэндерса, толстопузого социал-демократа Теда Кеннеди и, уж тем более, Хиллари Клинтон, которая в некотором отношении консервативнее республиканца Джона Маккейна и, возможно, будет приглашена к нему в вице-президенты, хотя, наверное, все же нет. Журналисты в массе своей освещают Обаму как минимум некритически, а часто и с обожанием. Придет момент, когда они присмотрятся к нему поближе. И вот что они, например, увидят.  Более 20 лет Обама является прихожанином чикагского храма, который называется "Объединенная Троицкая Церковь Христова". На ее сайте доктрина Церкви характеризуется как "систематизированная теология освобождения" и говорится, что она ведет свое начало к публикации в 1969 году книги доктора Джеймса Коуна "Негритянская власть и негритянское богословие". В оригинале было "черная власть" - Black power, - но по-русски это звучит не очень хорошо, а термина "афроамериканская" в 1969 году еще не было, поэтому я осмелился перевести скоромным словом "негритянская". Основоположник Коун учил, что черным Христианам зазорно следовать за "белой церковью", потому что она не поддержала их борьбу за равные права. Это чисто вранье, но речь здесь не о Коуне, а о церкви, в которую ходит Обама. Церковь, в которую ходит Обама, заявляет, что "мы - африканский народ и храним верность своей родной земле, материнскому континенту, колыбели цивилизации", то есть Африке. Ее нынешний настоятель преподобный Джеремайя Райт сетует на "высокомерие белых" и называет США "Соединенными Штатами Белейшей Америки". Все эти мысли можно найти в трудах основоположника Коуна, который писал, например, что "пора уже белой Америке помолчать и выслушать черных людей… Все белые несут ответственность за белое угнетение… С богословской точки зрения, Малькольм Х был не так уж далек от истины, когда называл белого человека "диаволом"…  В январе на сайте журнала American Thinker появилась статья, в которой приводились многочисленные нападки Райта на белых и на евреев. Райт называет Израиль "расистским" государством и призывает забрать оттуда все иностранные инвестиции. По его мнению, истинный избранный народ - это афроамериканцы, которым следует обособиться от американского общества. В прошлом году издаваемый Райтом журнал под названием "Труба" удостоил Луиса Фаррахана премии за заслуги в "борьбе за социальную справедливость". Да, это именно тот Фаррахан, который возглавляет вздорную "Нацию ислама", чей основатель Элайджа Мохам-мед учил, что белого человека вывел в пробирке злой волшебник. Райт - давний друг Фаррахана, несколько лет назад они вместе ездили в Ливию на поклон к полковнику Каддафи. Сейчас имеются все шансы, что американским президентом станет прихожанин церкви, которая считает, что Африка ей ближе, чем Америка, и чтит такого человека, как Фаррахан. Обама заклеймил Фаррахана за антисемитские высказывания, но не отмежевался от Райта, который женил его и крестил его дочерей. Но требовать, чтобы человек открыто критиковал своего духовника, так же бессмысленно, как требовать, чтобы он публично критиковал свою жену. Жена на той неделе несколько подвела Обаму, заявив, что сейчас она "в первый раз" в жизни гордится Америкой. Мишель Обаме сейчас 45 лет. Если она искренне считает, что до этого ей нечем было гордиться в своей стране, до того, как страна не начала благосклонно относиться к кандидатуре ее мужа, то почему бы не признать это открыто? Имеет право. А мы имеем право знать взгляды потенциальной первой леди Америки. Но это заявление беспрецедентно для жены ведущего кандидата в президенты Америки. Мишель Обама тоже принадлежит к пастве Джеремайи Райта, который проповедует афроцентризм. Я бы спросил у Мишель, гордится ли она Африкой, а если да, то с какого момента. Я подозреваю, что дольше, чем Америкой. Ее признание, что раньше она Америкой не гордилась, не вызвало в США особого скандала. Возможно потому, что в американских СМИ господствуют единомышленники Мишель Обамы, которые не нашли в ее словах Ничего сенсационного. Сами такие. Теперь понятно, почему сам Обама отказывается носить значок с американским флагом. Опять же, имеет право. А миллионы дебилов имеют право за него голосовать. Если Обама левее вермонтского сенатора Берни Сэндерса, который открыто называет себя социалистом, то кем прикажете считать самого Обаму? Защитником капитализма? Тогда почему в Интернете висит старая видеозапись предвыборного митинга Сэндерса, на которой Обама агитирует за него, зажав в кулачке свой верный микрофон? Активистов предвыборного штаба Обамы засняли с флагом, на котором красуется портрет Че Гевары. Это вполне органично в применении к политику, который связан с Чикагской марксистской рганизацией. В 1996 году, когда Обама баллотировался в Сенат штата Иллинойс, его поддержало чикагское отделение организации "Демократические социалисты Америки" (ДСА). Через некоторое время бюллетень ДСА сообщил о том, что Обама был на ее собрании и пел осанны одному из кумиров Чикагских левых - видному социалисту Солу Менделсону. ДСА характеризует себя как самую Крупную социалистическую организацию в Америке и главный Американский филиал Социалистического интернационала.
