As media outlets have reported, Jermaine Jackson had the following farewell message to his late brother, Michael Jackson: "May Allah be with you always." Watch for yourself here.

But strangely, the NY Times omits the "Allah" reference altogether and instead reports that Jermaine said, "May our love be with you always."

We have troops fighting for our lives in Iraq and Afganistan. How many of them have thousands of people come out to thank the dead or wounded warriors like they did that alleged ‘man’ Michael Jackson, accused of pedophia, alcohol and drugs?
Contrary to the gossip columnist in Los Angles, Jackson will be remembered for his alleged assault on children.
Elvis Presley, who was a drug addict, will be remembered for drugs, Michael Jackson will be remembered for drugs, alcohol and pedophialia..

Another Muslim?

BWAHAHAHA! I finally got a chance to listen to audio! The Fox guy (Geraldo?) asked which brother it was, and then announced that it was RANDY Jackson!!!

A 1991 song by Jermaine, “Word To The Badd,” attacked Michael for abandoning his black heritage.

Once you were made
You changed your shade
Was your color wrong?

I kid you not, Jermaine named one of his kids, “Jermajesty”.

A lot of weirdness all around in that family.

When it comes to this bunch nothing would surprise me. Well maybe some things like leading a relatively normal life but I think I am safe there.

Interesting. Sure sounded like “Allah” to me

Drugs did in Elvis but that is not what I would first remember about him. The way he died would be quite a way down the list. Jackson will be remembered for his music as well but right beside it will be those negatives. The bad stuff at least on this forum probably overshadows everything else. That is my take at this point in time. I am not sure how the MSM is handling all this since I have not consumed any of their bilge since the news broke and seldom do since I have high blood pressure.

Sorry to hear about your blood pressure.

I only wrote what I felt about Michael Jackson’s life. I never liked him or his music but a lot of people did.
Enjoy Jackson’s music. Forget about the drugs etc. Remember you only have one life and live it to the utmost.

To update on this topic....

Tmz is reporting that Jackson’s handlers used intimidation to get him drugs. 2003. I don’t know if the Nation of ISlam was involved then.
