| 'Muslims live under dictatorship in US' |
| 2010-10-27 |
| [Iran Press TV] Mohammedans live under " dictatorship" in the US, says an African-American Mohammedan activist, ahead of a review of the US human rights ... which are not the same thing as individual rights, mind you... records by the UN Human Rights Council. In less than two weeks, the Human Rights Council will, for the first time ever, assess the human rights status of the United States in a Universal Periodic Review (UPR). "We [Mohammedans] believe that it is our duty, it is our responsibility to stand up to what we call the United States government's 'constitutional dictatorship'," activist and Imam of Masjid al-Islam Abdul Alim Musa told Press TV on Monday. "When we say a constitutional dictatorship, we mean that they have a constitution, but with all of the new anti-terrorism bills, patriot acts, all of the homeland securities, all of the FBI memos... all of these new charges that they operate on allow them to go around all of the constitutional guarantees [for human rights,]" he added. It is not only the Mohammedans that are under pressure in the United States, as other minorities also suffer discrimination. According to a UPR report provided by the US government, the unemployment rate for African-Americans is 15.8 percent and for Hispanics, 12.4, compared to only 8.8 percent for whites. A little less than half of African Americans and Hispanics own their homes, compared to three-quarters of the whites. A person with disabilities is only one-fourth as likely to be employed as a person without, and white Americans are twice as likely as native Americans to have college degrees. |

| #15 While in college I was a bit of a lefty (center left). I read an Amnesty International annual report that was so weighted against reality and the West it made me sick. Half the freaking thing was listing the nightmarish situation in the US and UK while Cuba got ten pages or so. It was at that point I realized the left really can't be trusted with the truth, they have agendas. Opened my eyes and hopefully that Human Rights Coujncil report will do the same to a lot of others. |

| #14 "In less than two weeks, the Human Rights Council will, for the first time ever, assess the human rights status of the United States in a Universal Periodic Review (UPR)." 1. Who sold us out to the UN? 2. Does this mean we'll actually be allowed to get fingerprinted or require ID in order to vote versus the sham system we use now? |

| #10 A little less than half of African Americans and Hispanics own their homes, compared to three-quarters of the whites. And if you go to any school, these are the kids most likely to goof off. |

| #7 Yes. In the US the muslims - don't have the right to kidnap and torture people without legal consequence similarly, - don't have the right to kill apostates, - don't have the right to prohibit alcoholic beverages or pork from being drunk/eaten in public - don't have the right to force women to burkharize themselves - don't have to right to force boys to allow themselves to be sodomized by imans - don't have the right to force girls to marry at 9 years old - - don't have the right to prohibit eating in public during Ramadan daylight poor babies |

| #6 Muslims are like democrats, they are not happy unless they are running things. And if things are still not right its not their fault. |

| #5 the Mohammedans enjoy the greatest freedom of all - the freedom to leave but will they take it up? |

| #4 We're all in the same boat. The Administration was 'ready to rule' from Day One - they told us so. Dictatorships rule, free people are governed. |

| #3 We have the same in the UK where some nationalities are known for their hard work/ambition whilst others arent! |

| #2 Translation: if Muslims aren't able to shit all over everybody else, they're having their freedoms constrained. |

| #1 According to a UPR report provided by the US government, the unemployment rate for African-Americans is 15.8 percent and for Hispanics, 12.4, compared to only 8.8 percent for whites. Funny how they always leave out Asians (Japanese / Chinese / Koreans / Indians / etc..) or other groups which (like a lot of whites) value education, study and are better educated because of it. But I guess that wouldn't fit the narrative. |
