Sir,

Based on questionable American evidence, Libya was accused of the Lockerbie bombing and the so called evidence was used again in the Security Council to impose sanctions against Libya, the US attacked and murdered her people! Ironically, that unfortunate incident was twisted with extreme creativity to malign Muslims and Islam by the western media.

10 years later, finally, the Scottish Court handed down the verdict that two Libyan suspects were not guilty and that finding is consistent with a few independent documentary makers who have pointed their finger to some botched up CIA operations!

Surprise! Surprise!! The complaisant media reporting of the Scottish verdict was beyond complacency. It is a testimony of an anti-Muslim media as a whole.

However, the blind cleric, who was accused of the Anwar Sadat murder; was escorted from the Egyptian goal and shipped to the hilltops of Afghanistan by the holy United States Administration to fight against Russia. Eventually, he was flown to the USA without any valid documentation and lived there for a long time.

One day, the world woke up to find a Muslim cleric accused- and eventually was convicted for the New York World Square bombing related offence. Here too! He was convicted because of suspicious evidence available in the Zionist controlled USA! Evidence like a confession from his accomplice, a shadowy figure, who supposedly a former Egyptian Army officer, a person unrecognized or not recorded by the Egyptian Army in the first place!?

Without any exception, this case too rocked the world with a cunning anti-Muslim flavor!

Today (21.10.2000), another former Egyptian army officer serving in the US army supposedly confessing to Nairobi and Kenyan bombings, did not stop there! He linked the prized "object" Osama bin Laden (who?) with this crime- very convenient! The not so complaisant media, this time with their never ending naked fashion of anti-Islamic venom impregnated with barbarity and finger pointing at the whole Muslim community in a very subtle way.

All of this is happening when the professional victim Israel was condemned by the world except for the US, UK and in a time slot when peace between Israel and Palestine is sorely needed.

After all, the modern world economy needs an enemy! Hitler's Germany, Stalin's Russia, Castro's Cuba, Kim's Korea, now disgraced the than NATO Secretary General Klause's new found enemy "Islam"!

I wonder, is there any connection with all of the above and the lucrative arms business? Isn't it another example of ism (racism, communalism, socialism, capitalism etc) being used to satisfy human lust and greed??

Sincerely yours
