The Ummah, Organization of Middle East Countries

27 states in Europe called the European Union have joined forces together much like our 50 American states in that they have one market and standard laws for all. You do not need a passport to travel through 22 of these countries if you are one of them. 16 of the countries use the same money-the euro. Their unity is for their economy and politics. This takes in 500 million people in these states.

Right now the French are having fits and rioting in the streets because the government of France has raised retirement at age 60 to 62. They get 2 hour lunches and work only 4 days a week. Shall we all move to France? Sounds like heaven except for the rioting.

50 states make up our United States. of America. We have 307,006, 550 people, a smaller group than the EU. We have a separation of religion and politics. States have states rights but we have a common currency, also for all 50 of us. Right now the public wants more states rights and less Federal control.

There are 56 countries and the Palestinian Authority that have united in the Middle East which is called the Organization of the Islamic Conference or OIC. Their unity is to form an Ummah, a universal religious community which is based on the Koran, the Sunna, and the canonical orthodoxy of shari'a. Their unity is for their religion and political organization. They are very similar to the Muslim World League of the Muslim Brotherhood. This takes in more than one billion three to six hundred million Muslims. They have their permanent delegation at the United Nations. This is why I and others feel the U.N. is top-heavy with Arabs who are against Israel.

Ths IOC is restoring the Caliphate which is the supreme controlling body for all Muslims. Their 2008 charter says that they are promoting Islamic values and are to revitalize the role of Islam in the world, increase their prosperity and ensure the defense of their national sovereignty and territorial integrity.

They proclaim their support for Palestine with Jerusalem as its capital and get each other to promote human rights, basic freedoms, shari'a and democracy according to their constitutional and legal systems-meaning compliance with sharia.

They support all jihadist movements considered to be resisting "foreign occupation," pointing out Indian Kashmir and Muslims in India. No doubt they are thinking about Palestine.

The Secretary General Professor Ekmeleddin lhsanoglu is very much against the 240 houses that are to be built by Israelis in East Jerusalem. He calls this "our aggression." Naturally, as their intentions are to take over all of Jerusalem, they are against our building.

They are anti-Jewish, and in 2003 the Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohammad said that the Jews control the world: "They invented socialism, communism, human rights and democracy, so that persecuting them would appear to be wrong, so that they can enjoy equal rights with others. With these they have gained control of the most powerful countries and they, this tiny community, have become a world power”. He also said that “The Europeans killed six million Jews out of 12 million, but today the Jews rule the world by proxy. They get others to fight and die for them”. Another member said that he was only trying to show that Jews have survived by their brains and not their brawn, but it certainly sounded anti-semitic to all those in attendance.

Naturally they were very vocal about Human Rights in condemning Israel. Human Rights Watch says that OIC has “fought doggedly” and successfully within the United Nations Human Rights Council to shield states from criticism, except when it comes to criticism of Israel. For example, when independent experts reported violations of Human Rights in the 2006 Lebanon War, “state after state from the OIC took the floor to denounce the experts for daring to look beyond Israeli violations to discuss Hezbollah’s as well”. In other words, Israel was all wrong and don't you dare bring up any criticism about the terrorists, Hezbollah.

The Palestinians are threatening to proclaim their state regardless if there are any peace talks between Abbas and Netanyahu or not and demand the take-over of Jerusalem. The odds are unbelievably against us that they will win support in the UN. Is the world going to allow this?

And Israel? Israel is all alone except for Ha Shem. Israel is a state by itself. The United States has been a friend ever since its birth in 1948, but just that, only a friend, and that has not always been reliable. Friends do have their spats. It's enduring and creating ideas and businesses amidst an environment of bombs bursting in their back yards, of fixing up their bomb shelters, of dealing with extinction from Iran and of course neighbors that are not inviting them over for milk and cookies. The OIC knows they exist because of their brains. Ha Shem gave the Arabs oil, but he gave the Jews brains. We're going to have to depend on them and Ha-Shem, for that is all we have.
