How many countries can Louis Farrakhan name?

WASHINGTON (NNPA) – Minister Louis Farrakhan is considering organizing another national march next year – the 10th anniversary of the Million Man March – to encourage African Americans to keep a larger share of their $688 billion annual spending in the Black community.
That disclosure was ignored last week after the Nation of Islam leader held a 2-hour speech/news conference at the National Press Club here that dealt primarily with the U.S. occupation of Iraq, the Middle East and foreign affairs.
“I’m not so much interested in a march,” Farrakhan said, replying to a question. “I’m not too much interested in gathering a million or two million men in one place – unless it is to direct those men to do that which will liberate our people.”
Warming to his subject, he said, “There is no reason for Morris Brown (a financially troubled Black college in Atlanta) to close. There is no reason that we don’t have hospitals and clinics across this nation to service our needs. It’s the misuse of our dollars. So, I don’t see any reason to call 2 million men again, unless we’re calling them for serious work.”
And there are plenty of dollars that quickly work their way out of the Black community. According to the Selig Center for Economic Growth at the University of Georgia, annual Black spending power will grow from $688 billion in 2002 to $921 billion in 2008.
Although Farrakhan said that he will consider whether organizing another march, some of his senior aides say he appears to be leaning toward calling for a rally in 2005.
Farrakhan, who became a registered voter for the first time in 1984 to help bolster the presidential candidacy of Jesse Jackson, issued a word of caution to Black leaders.
“My dear Black brothers and sisters and Hispanic brothers and sisters, I know that you’re Democrats. And I know that you want Sen. (John) Kerry to win,” Farrakhan said, his voice barely above a whisper. “But I say to Black leadership, don’t you herd our people to the polls before you put before Sen. Kerry an agenda that’s in the best interest of the masses of our people. If you betray our people, as a suffering masses that want to be relieved, then your leadership is finished.
This is the last time that you will herd our votes into the hands of any political leader without having the necessary strength to put before such a leader, those issues that affect our lives.”
The first group to meet with Kerry after he clinched the Democratic nomination was the Congressional Black Caucus, chaired by Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.). Cummings has stated that African American lawmakers have a list of issues that they want Kerry to adopt. And for his part, Kerry has pledged to lean heavily on CBC members and other Black national leaders for advice.
Farrakhan chided Sen. Kerry for opposing reparations for African Americans and not supporting a bill introduced each year by Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.) calling for a study of the issue.
“Senator Kerry, you come off as a moderate, a White moderate who prefers order – don’t disturb the order by asking for a study of whether Black people deserve reparations,” the Nation of Islam leader said. Mocking Kerry, he continued, “Let’s not go to the past, but remember the Alamo, remember Pearl Harbor, remember the Holocaust. But forget what you have suffered.” With his voice rising, Farrakhan added, “We, the Blacks in America, deserve to be repaired.”
On the war in Iraq, Farrakhan charged that it was unlikely that ousted Iraqi President Saddam Hussein would have ever conspired with Osama bin Laden, a key leader in the al Qaeda terrorist group.
“They cannot with truth tie al Qaeda to Saddam Hussein,” Farrakhan declared. “If you know anything about Osama bin Laden, he is what you would call a religious zealot who saw Saddam Hussein as a hypocrite who went away from Islam to follow a path of socialism. So there’s no way Osama would have been connected to Saddam. But the neo-conservatives (in the U.S.) wanted to make a case for war.”
More accurately, Farrakhan contends, they were eager to go to war to protect Israel. “Iraq never threatened America, could not threat America,” Farrakhan said. “But as long as Saddam Hussein was alive, in their minds, he was a threat to Israel. Syria is a threat to Israel. Iran is a threat to Israel. Anyone that does not believe in their justification of the state of Israel on Palestinian land is an enemy that must be destroyed.”
Farrakhan alleged that war served the dual purpose of attacking Islam and protecting the interests of Israel.
“What America is seeking is actually to change Islam to make Islam suitable and non-threatening to Western hegemony over the entire world. So the war is not just against brutal dictators. The war, at the root, is against Islam. The government will not admit to that.”
Farrakhan made public two letters he sent to Bush. In the first one, dated Dec. 1, 2001, he said: “Afghanistan is only a preliminary to a much wider war, which is already planned. And this war also has a home front aspect as well.” He warned at if President Bush persisted on his present course, “You will unite the Muslim world in hostility against America and Great Britain, and you will use your great position of power, inadvertently, to call for a Holy War against the West.”
At the National Press Club, Farrakhan said, “I have been a faithful warner to you. I know that the Sanhedrin (an ancient Jewish court system) will meet after this speech. They will decide what to do with me. You may do as you please, but if this country is to survive it must renounce and repudiate the doctrine of the neoconservatives and distance this country from her agenda. If America is to survive she must not use the might of America to fight the battles of Israel and allow herself to be used to destroy the real or perceived enemies of Israel.”
Like all recent administrations, Bush officials view Israel as America’s most important ally in the Middle East.
Farrakhan says that’s part of the problem.
“…They are saying that President George W. Bush is the greatest friend that Israel has had of any president in this country. If George W. Bush is a brilliant friend, then how can he be an honest broker in a search for peace?”
As usual, Farrakhan saved his harshest criticism for Jews.
“A Jew is a noble name,” he said. “A Jew means one who is in a covenant relationship with God in obedience to the divine laws, statures and commandments of God. But these people claim to be Jews, but they’re not in obedience to God’s law. They have given a mission of evil a divine look on it and George W. Bush has swallowed that bait, hook, line and sinker. The Synagogue of Satan is a gathering of persons of like mind and spirit who are in opposition to the will of God.”
The Anti-Defamation League, which catalogues and documents public attacks on Jews, says on its Web site that Farrakhan “has long expressed anti-Semitic and anti-white rhetoric, that mark him as a notable figure on the extremist scene.”
Minister Farrakhan predicted that unemployment will remain a serious problem in the U.S.
“I know that America cannot provide for the millions of her own unemployed as well as ours,” he said. “And that’s why our agenda must think in terms of a future for our people. Not integration, not sitting next to a White child that will be beneficial to him.
But equal access to information and knowledge. For once you know what the other man knows, he can no longer rule you. And as long as you’re being ruled, it’s because you have inferior knowledge.”
what about reparations for the white victims of louie's thugs ,like his friend,the bleached white pedeofile FREAK; Michael Jackson ?
Why do you say that? Because this year he calls Hispanics his brothers and sisters?
All of CAIRS friends and benefactors should be happy...its another al-Qaeda moment
All Muslim America...Founding Father's nightmare...all the safeguards they thought they implemented...they did their best...we found a way around them all.....
When we deserted Christ and as a nation turned our back on the source of our freedom God
The God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob...God the Son....The Lord Jesus Christ....
No man has seen the Father...Moses took the Ten Commandments from God the Son....
Jesus Christ is the author and finisher of our faith...
The whoring after other gods...will be our downfall...as it was Israel's.......and Allah is just an 'other' god...
imo
First minister and Farrakhan should not be used in the same sentence together.
Second wasn't Farrakhan somehow hooked up with the porn photos that the Globe put in his paper?
I think I read an article regarding it.
Only if he does it between Monday and Friday, when they have nothing to do.
That may not last much longer. Affirmative action at it's worst...
Gay presence will be doubled/Wanted: homosexual Democrats.
Washington Times
Friday, May 14, 2004
Democratic parties in 15 states and Puerto Rico have set numerical goals for homosexual delegates at the party's national convention this summer, doubling the number that set a standard in 2000.
The effort comes as same-sex "marriage" has emerged as a divisive political issue, particularly in Massachusetts, where Democrats will gather in July to choose their presidential nominee. Barring a last-minute ruling, homosexual "marriage" will be legal in the state beginning Monday.
Both President Bush and Democratic rival Sen. John Kerry oppose homosexual "marriage," although the Republican incumbent has backed a constitutional amendment that would ban same-sex "nuptials." Mr. Kerry supports civil unions.
Democrats are determined to ensure that homosexuals are part of their convention ranks. Delegates should "look like the nation as whole," said Winnie Stachelberg, political director for the Human Rights Campaign, a homosexual rights advocacy group.
A couple of thousand muslims, all gathered in one place.
Just think of the possibilities.
What he meant was, he would hold about a dozen of these things with sum total altogether of 1 million.
Come on, lets not be too hard on Farakhan.
No doubt, CSPAN will televise the speakers at this march. I recommend listening, for their speaches are better than anything that can be heard on the Comedy Channel.
