The Other Perspective

THE OTHER PERSPECTIVE


You think that you know every thing. But when you talk to strangers, you wonder if you know enough. Here are a few examples:


September 11, 2001

Although most people in the Western world believe that the horrendous destruction of the WTC twin towers was caused by the suicidal crashing of passenger airliners hijacked by members of Al-Qaida, most Muslims do not subscribe to the idea. Some of the objections are as follows:

  • An aluminum aircraft could not penetrate the steel structure of a sky scraper.
  • The bodies of the victims were totally charred and could not be identified. The lists of victims are the lists of missing persons presumed dead.
  • The video of the aircraft hitting the second tower was a fake. The aircraft was shown striking the building in a tilted position hitting about ten floor slabs. The wings should have broken off and fallen out. The video was released within minutes of the event and therefore must have been prepared from a simulation in advance. Obviously one of USA’s media giants was involved in the plot.
  • The jet engine combustion chambers could not have melted and should have been found intact.
  • The timing of the attack was such that there would be minimum casualties, and the towers collapsed so symmetrically that there would be minimum damage to adjacent buildings. A terrorist attack should have targeted maximum deaths and damage. The attack was planned with concern for human lives and property, unlike the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
  • The twin towers collapsed in such a way that could happen only due to a controlled demolition with strategically placed explosives at the weak points of the structure detonated in a planned sequence.
  • The first explosion was at the top floor of one tower, allowing ample time for the evacuation of all the occupants of both towers.
  • At least 4 of the persons of Arab origin included in the passenger lists of thr airliners said to have been involved in the acts of terrorism were found to be alive and well. The reports in the Arab newspapers were not picked up by the Western media.
  • Airline and airport personnel were not asked any questions on live television.
  • WTC had suffered an earlier truck-bomb attack with considerable damage which could have rendered it unsafe. Since the WTC belonged to the NY City who also regulates building safety, the fact may have been concealed.
  • Large contingents of US and British navies had been waiting for over a decade in the Persian Gulf and Arabian Sea for an excuse to invade Afghanistan, Iraq and Iran.
  • Since the US and British leaders have been proven liars in the case of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction, the opposite of everything they have ever said should be believed.

Who Preaches Terrorism?

Since the middle of nineteen-nineties a new breed of mullahs has emerged in Pakistan, India, Saudi Arabia and other Muslim countries. They can be identified by distinctive characteristics:

· They come from very modest backgrounds, but have suddenly become quite affluent.

· They frequently state that the time has come for Muslim men and women to sacrifice life and property in the name of Allah.

· They have a lot of respect and admiration for Prophet Moses and place him above Prophet Muhammad (SAW).

· They narrate absurd and fictitious stories calling them Hadith such as:

1) When Prophet Muhammad (SAW) went to heaven during Meraj, the angel asked him to look left where he saw a small crowd and was told that it was the Ummah of Prophet Eisa (Jesus). He was then asked to look in front where he saw a very large crowed and was told that it was his Ummah. He was then asked to look right to find an unending crowd which he was told was the Ummah of Prophet Moses. (The author of the story didn’t know that there have never been more than a handful of Jews in the world.)

2) When the angel of death came and told Prophet Moses thst his time had come and he had to go, Prophet Moses became angry and slapped the angel so hard in the face that he lost one eye. The angel went back to Allah and complained………..

Such Mullahs could only be the agents of Israel.


Who Benefits from Terrorism?

The acts of religion based terrorism that have created a visible rift between the Chritians and the Muslims lately clearly indicate that someone is investing in them. But one only invests if one expects a profit. So, in order to find the sources of terrorism let us see as to who could be the ultimate beneficiaries of a conflict between Christianity and Islam.

1) Palestine is the home of Christianity and there is a sizable proportion of Christians among the Palestinians. Alfatah, the militant wing of the PLO has traditionally been dominated by Christians. The deep interest of western media in the Palestinians is also related to the contacts of Palestinian Christians with them. A global animosity between Christians and Muslims may eventually create a divide between Paletinian Christians and Muslims and help to maintain Israeli domination of Jerusalem.

2) The Kashmiris, being all Muslims, fail to attract the attention of Western media; although their cause of freedom should find universal support. Polarization between Christianity and Islam would help India to isolate Pakistan and turn the western society against the Kashmiris, paving the way for the perpetuation of Indian atrocities in Kashmir.
