The newly developed and revamped Jeddah Corniche

This latest development project in Jeddah was inaugurated by the governor of Makkah, Prince Khalid Al Faisal a few weeks ago, with a smaller inauguration ceremony held on Wednesday night in what was said to be a glitterati event. Close friends of ours residing in Jeddah attended the event and also made their way to the Corniche yesterday afternoon to get a glimpse of the area during the day.Jeddah has always been my favourite city in the Kingdom and I certainly can not wait to hop onto a flight and see this latest Saudi development project and of course meet all my friends who are near and dear to me especially my best friend Faraz and the Najdi family.

An American woman's perspective on the Boston Marathon Bombings

It is quite ironical that after having a lengthy discussion with regards to the Boston marathon bombings on a friends facebook page, I landed up having guests from the USA for lunch on Sunday afternoon. One of the woman in the group was highly qualified with a masters in higher education. Whilst discussing various topics, the subject about the Boston marathon came up and without voicing my opinion, this is what the lady said ( I wish I taped it), ' I am an American citizen but I'm sorry to say that what happened at the Marathon was definitely staged. The American people do not trust the government and the media any longer. The fact that they implicated Americans of Cechnyan origin is just ludicrous for the following reason. The young Chechnyan men who were apprehended for the blasts came into the USA under refugee status fleeing the war in Bosnia years ago. They were very young when they left Bosnia and hence their mindset and ideologies are that of a typical American child. Why would you bomb people that have granted you a place to stay. As a refugee in the USA your moves and daily activities are traced and tracked. Are you a productive member of society, are you working, studying etc. If these young men were involved with Chechnyan militants as the news reports claim why were their activities not picked up earlier. She further mentioned quite correctly that whilst all the mainstream news channels reported about the incident throughout the week over and over again, none of the news channels reported about the USA army "mistakenly" bombing a wedding gathering in Afghanistan on April 17th killing 30 innocent civilians. The idiotic soldiers without gathering the correct information supposedly thought that the celebratory gunfire which usually occurs at all Afghani weddings was in actual fact a gathering for a military operation and bombed the wedding killing 30 people. Why wasn't this reported in the mainstream media? North Korea has been threatening the USA for some time now and so over the last few months the American people are questioning their government about their safety. Will the government be able to defend its people if Korea strikes.. In order to divert the peoples attention, they staged a terror attack and within a few hours, voila the criminals are caught. Well done boys.. We can defend the country thereby reinforcing the idea that the government can protect its people thereby allowing harsher laws and policies to be imposed onto the American people thereby stripping American citizens of their independence and autonomy." She further mentioned that being a Muslim in America is difficult. During her trip to South Africa out of a whole long queue of people only she and her mom were asked to step aside for a full body pat search simply because she wore a hijaab and was a Muslim. She said America talks about discrimination, racism to other countries, yet as a Muslim you are being discriminated against on a daily basis. I was shocked at a story she related to us. She said that if you are a Muslim don't be surprised if the FBI or the CIA knock at your door without a search warrant, arrest you and torture you to confess to crimes you did not commit. A community doctor residing in her neighourhood was an American citizen. He was however, a Muslim too. The FBI raided his home without a search warrant, took him away for over a year without his family knowing where he was. They had no evidence or proof to charge him against anything. So finally they charged him with providing money to a terrorist organization on the grounds that they found three thousand dollars in his home. After one and half years they released him but also stripped him of his professional licence.

Islam has always been a religion of peace. It does not condone the killing of innocent people at the hands of suicide bombers. Sadly though the majority of people in the world have no idea how the intelligence agencies work. These agencies are dogged with carrying out undercover operations that have affected the lives of thousands of people whilst shifting the blame onto someone else in order to enhance a political objective. I knew of people involved in the intelligence who are no more. There was a Syrian man who is actually a school friend of a colleague of mine. He was the head of a military operation in Syria a good few years ago. Whilst in Moscow he was introduced to a Jewish woman and within a period of time she became his wife. As a member of the Syrian military, he is not allowed to marry a non Syrian woman due to security reasons. Hence he built a home in Moscow and traveled between Syria and Russia. He also told his wife that he will only accept her if she became a Muslim. He was married to the woman for 20 years and had two kids with her. One day when he returned to Moscow, he found that his house was empty. He found a note from his wife saying that she has returned to Israel and that she was in fact a spy for Mossad, Israel's intelligence agency. She was assigned to access information about Syria's military operations and also be involved with planting bombs at strategic places which was not mentioned. She was not a Muslim but rather a devout Jew and her kids were also roped into the Mossad at a later stage. After realizing that his wife had betrayed him, and knowing that he has indirectly betrayed his own country, the man committed suicide...

I suggest to all my blog readers, to please view this brilliant video below by Anthony Lawson for those of you who wish to understand the dynamics of the world we are living in today. Why is there war, loss of life, why are innocent people being killed and murdered by the thousands? Who is behind all of this? I urge all of you to please watch this video and share it with all your friends....TO HELL WITH ZIONISM..

The Boston Marathon Bombings - An Inside Job

So I guess I am not the only one who sees a different picture with regards to the Boston Marathon bombings. Thanks Muhammed Bikhoo for sharing this video with me. It highlights many of the issues that I have discussed on Ismail Mahomed's facebook page earlier this morning.

I believe that the Boston marathon was a staged terror attack carried out by the American government, the CIA and FBI. There are just too many coincidences and reports that don't make any sense. Strange that CNN, SKY and BBC reported a Saudi national as the initial suspect less than two hours after the blast..They have utilized the very same tactics as the 9/11 attacks which has now been proven through hundreds of books and video publications as being a staged terror attack carried out by the American government..The ruthless American regime will stop at nothing to achieve their goals to further enhance their Islamophobic agenda and secure oil wealth..However, what they fail to understand is that it is not America who is in charge of this universe, it is God Almighty and hence with time the truth always prevails and good always triumphs over evil..

So at first they blamed a Saudi national, a poor student who was in the country to learn English. He was basically at the wrong place at the wrong time. Now they have shifted the blame to two American citizens of Chechnyan Muslim descent and have linked their activities to Islamic Militant groups in Chechnya. I am hundred percent sure that the two brothers were either set up by the FBI, were working as spies or were informants within the CIA just like Mr. Bin Laden who miraculously disappeared and is of course now sitting in the tummy of a fish. They dropped his body at sea remember... What rubbish. Do the Americans honestly believe that the world will believe their crap blindly...

As the journalist in the video states, " The American government will murder innocent civilians, Barack Obama and his administration, the Bushes before him, they will murder you; they will murder Americans, they will murder men, women and children to achieve their political objectives. Take a look at what they have been doing in Iraq and Afghanistan in the past decade. Look at the invasion in Iraq. Remember September 11th, it was supposedly Saudi nationals who flew those planes into the world trade center. If you believe that official/unofficial story or propaganda. Yet we didn't invade Saudi Arabia, one of our allies; No, we invaded Iran on a false pretense, lie, a premise that Iran had weapons of mass destruction."
