LAUNCH OF MUSLIMS FACING TOMORROW

Silence is the mother of truth.  ~Benjamin Disraeli

Between the ugly, thunderous & violent roar of the radical extremists and the wishy washy whimper of the majority, lies THE SILENT VOICE.

Come and hear this voice at the launch of The Council For Muslims Facing Tomorrow  www.muslimsfacingtomorrow.com

Our Mission: Whereas in the contemporary world the values of individual freedom, human rights and gender equality, science and democracy are cherished universal ideals, yet Muslims and non-Muslim minorities espousing these ideals in countries that are member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation face abuse, persecution, and violence;  and whereas Muslims and people of all other faith traditions need to come together in opposing bigotry in the name of religion; therefore our Mission is to nurture harmonious coexistence among people of all faith traditions, to supporting open and free intellectual discourse about our history beset with problems that need to be publicly discussed, to celebrating as Canadians our cultural diversity in all of its aspects and keeping Canada safe.

    Let’s also know the other side of the story (which the news media is unable to understand): Look at the Pakistani nation, where majority of people are deprived of almost everything required for living – food, water, health, education, home, job, money, etc. They had always lived under state oppression, but look at their faith and the strength of love and respect for Prophet Muhammad(Pbuh), their energy, their young age and their numbers and all were united, joing from every race, color, political party, for the reverence of their beloved Prophet. Shows people here love their Prophet (pbuh) more then themselves. Name a religion, whose people would come to streets in billions across the globe, to show their love for Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). They’re less educated (that again was our responsibility), not much aware about current day customs and ways of protests, they’re helpless and don’t know how to stop the perpetrators of this crime, except resorting to street protest, against the MIGHTY USA, who show least concern for it and violating its own US Constitution laws, as well as UN charter laws, posing helpless against Google (YouTube), who in fact violates it’s own policies of hate-speech. And on top, even the govt. of Pakistan and police did not support it’s own people, except lip-service, and in fact killed the protestors(to provoke violence), so why wouldn’t the masses be not angry at the govt. ? What did the govt. give them anything anyway ever… It’s their combined anger from childhood. Additionally, there were elements of foreign infiltrators or funding, where mob mobilizing tactics were used to create destruction, so as to malign muslim’s as rogue state and justify war money. The objective of this whole drama was to infuriate muslims hating americans and likewise, create hate among americans against muslims, so that the war business remain hot and money keep flowing into the pockets of few corrupt individuals in US and Pakistan. And look around, they’re 110% successful in it. Why wouldn’t they broadcast their success in every channel. Even pakistanis are bashing their own people, country, and many are trying to challenge if we should protest in the first place and many feel ashamed of being muslims. I feel so pity for their wisdom. May God enlighten everyone with the truth!
