The Mall, in the Nation’s capital, Washington, D.C., was the scene for a huge rally, on Sat., Oct. 15, 2005, entitled the “Million More Movement.” It was a reprise of the “Million Man March,” of ten years ago. This event, which drew a massive crowd, called for justice for the “poor and disenfranchised” in the country. Minister Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam was the primary speaker.

"The reason for de-linking Arabs from the rest of the Muslims is that Arabs are just 15 percent of the total Muslim population. Arabs are not only in minority, but also politically inactive and segregated in different fiefdoms."

"The WOT juggernaut rumbles on with no end in sight. Civil liberties have become a casualty in the capitals of America, Britain and most western states on the pretext of 'sacrifice', while personal security of the 'other' - who in most cases happens to be adherents of Islam - remains in perpetual jeopardy."

"...people who’ve been incarcerated are apt to know something that American media outlets rarely acknowledge: Beyond the glare of publicity and outside of camera range, people in police custody and behind bars are vulnerable to capricious and dangerous acts of violence by tax-funded employees."

"Throughout this Jewish exploration, Palestinians are on the reciprocating end of the Jewish mapping of identity. The formation of a Jewish state brought the Palestinians Al-Nakba, the catastrophe. Jewish expectations and immigration brought devastation and exile for the Palestinians. Although Palestinians are the indigenous people of Palestine they exist within the Jewish framework. Through no power or action on their own part, the Palestinians became the Jewish peoples’ other."

"The occupation presses forward, suffocating the will of the majority of the Palestinian people who want an end to the conflict and violence."

"The example of the history shows us that in these lands it is possible to re-establish a system open to respect and affection in which every group can live in safety and in freedom such as the one which operated through the vision of the Ottomans."

"It is not the time of “Political Scoring” but the time to “Secure” the affected people."
