In Reply to: Re: Exposing Qhadafi and his GREEN BOOK/Libya in shambles! posted by munir on February 02, 19102 at 08:52:03:

::Ahlan,

::The GREEN BOOK is nothing but carbon-copy of the RED BOOK of the Chinese
:Primer!
::It is also a riddled with Eurocentric rhetoric and hints of an inferiority
::complex in the application of the superior Islamic principles. My self a
:student
::in the study of Marxism,Hitler's 'Mein Kampf',Das Kapital,RED BOOK and the
::Anarchist principles; I have concluded by reading and studying the GREEN BOOK
::years ago is that it is contradictory and principle and application in ANY
::society. It is similar to Hitler's ideology in the methodology of the
apostate
::Khadafi because we see through his methods to suppress religious eventhough
:his
::GREEN BOOK suggest everyone is free to express themselves(Otherwords,unless
it
::the words are against his power seat). It is similar to the Communist
::manifesto,Das Kapital, because he destroys the concept of private ownership
:and
::private capital(which is allowed in Islam).Otherwords,the abolotion of
private
::property. It is similar to anarchism because his ideas is calling for the
::eventual destruction of the form of government despite that Allah(s.w.t.) has
::given us the Khilafah system through his last messenger and nabi and
::companions(refering to the first principle of the GREEN BOOK). It was also
::written at the time of RED BOOK of Mao! This man called Qhadafi is nothing
but
:a
::Sham!
::(www.mathaba.net has a copy) then go to search engine for: 'Communist
:manifest'
::rather than 'Das Kapital' becasue you are would be looking at the German
copy.
::Then look at the 'Anarchist cookbook' look for Anarchist website. THEN you
:would
::see the similarities.However,with the Hitler's Mein Kampf,Hitler was actually
:a
::German neo-nationalist in every sense rather than white Supremist.Look also
at

::which he has made Libya!

::Interview with the Spokesperson for
:: The Fighting Islamic Group
:: in Libya - Brother Omar Rashed

::
:: Translation By Keysar Trad

::
:: Qaddhafi is distinguished indeed as he is suffocating every Islamic
::activity, by
:: executions, mass arrests, house demolitions and collective
punishments.
::He has
:: even innovated a specific day for hangings and executions of students
::inside the
:: universities, this being the 7th of April every year
:: The Libyan economy is witnessing a great expansion in the black
market,
::and a
:: monopoly of the regime and its friends over the production of petrol
:and
::the
:: wasting of this resource in a manner that does not contribute to any
::growth in
:: the country.
:: Rejection is the predominant feeling amongst all classes of Libyan
::society,
:: meaning the rejection of Qaddhafi, his regime and policies. However,
the
:: Libyan people -in general- have not passed beyond the stage of
:sentiments
::to
:: the stage of action

:
:: What are the basic principles and teachings on which the Fighting Islamic
:Group
::is
:: established and what are its goals over the medium to long term?

:: All gratitude is due to Allah, and may Allah send peace and blessings upon
His
:: messenger Muhammad.

:: The Fighting Islamic Group (FIG) is a group with an Islamic creed
established
::and
:: focusing on the creed of the Sunnah and Jama'ah. From this creed, the FIG
:takes
:: its principles, teachings and values. This forms and clarifies the reality
of
::the
:: message which the FIG is carrying and for which it is striving. I believe
:that
::we can
:: summarise the matter in the phrase: "There is no god except Allah, Muhammad
is
:: messenger of Allah", with its correct meaning, applications and requirements,
:: forming our principles, teachings, and focus.

:: As for the goals of the FIG, the long-term goal is "change".

:: We as Muslims, and as an Ummah distinguished from other com, with its own
:: creed, law, tradition, culture, and history, to this poiin time must be
::regarded as
:: deprived through force, tyranny, oppression, conspiracies and plots, from
:being
:: able to live in accordance with the requirements of our creed. We are
:deprived
::and
:: scattered with no weight, no power and no strength. One of the greatest
::indicants
:: of this is the slicing of a piece from our land and the granting of this
land
::to the
:: Jews, while we are not strong enough to do anything.

:: When this is our reality, it becomes a certainty that our long-term goal is
::change.

:: We want to change this oppressive reality which clashes, conflicts and
::contradicts
:: with our creed, our hopes and our ambitions as an Ummah.

:: As for the medium term goals, these are stage plans and tactics that serve
our
:: strategy; they are specific matters that submit to the situation and the
::catalysts that
:: effect it. They all work as continuous co-ordinated steps that will lead us
:in
::the end
:: to the operation of change inshaa' Allah.

:: The despot Qaddhafi has ruled the Libyan people with iron and fire,
:: what are the policies that distinguish him from other despots who are
:: imposing on our Islamic world?

:: I believe that the despots imposing on our Islamic world are following the
:same
:: policies in general, they are all confronting Islam - or more correctly -
::confronting
:: any reformative Islamic movement; they are all pharaohs who have no
conscience
:: when it comes to dealing with Muslims.

:: With respect to the Islamic presence and Islamic activity in society in
::general,
:: Qaddhafi is distinguished indeed as he is suffocating every Islamic
activity,
::dealing
:: with the issue from its roots without distinction. Thus, we find many of his
::policies
:: to conform greatly to the policies that are being practiced by the Zionists
in
:: occupied Palestine. Examples of this are the executions, mass arrests, house
:: demolitions and collective punishments. Qaddhafi is also distinguished
:through
::the
:: fact that he has innovated a specific day for hangings and executions of
::students
:: inside the universities, this being the 7th of April every year. On this
day,
::he hangs
:: some of the students who oppose his regime in the centre of the university
in
::front
:: of thousands of other students, in order to discourage opposition and plant
::fear and
:: despair in the hearts of the students.

:: However, if an Islamic movement formed any real danger to the existence of
any
:: regime in the Islamic world, it would be exposed to confinement, eradication
::and
:: suppression without any real distinction between one country and another.

:: Can you turn the spotlight on the Libyan regime on the political, economic
and
:: social front?

:: The truth is that a question like this deserves its own essay so that all
the
::aspects
:: of the issue can be covered, however, we will attempt to answer in a manner
::fitting
:: the situation.

:: The Libyan regime from a political aspect is just a dictatorial regime that
::applies
:: individual rule. Any regime of this genre, regardless of its composition
will
::focus its
:: policies on the conflict for keeping sovereignty in its entirety and to
::constrict any
:: tool which desires to participate in politics, even if it were a group of
::youth! In this
:: respect, it relies completely on confinement, violence and punishment in
::achieving
:: its policy objectives.

:: The Qaddhafi regime and its third world vision - as he names it -under which
:he
:: had forced the Libyan people to live as prisoners to, contains trifles,
::nonsense, and
:: slogans which have no benefit and no meanings. The Libyan regime forces its
:: people to accept these policies because the regime itself has no valid claim
:to
:: power nor any mass support for its policies nor for its stay in power. For
:this
:: reason, Qaddhafi is always anxious to break down any threat to his regime
with
:: any means possible.

:: These are the facets of the Qaddhafi policies. These policies were ascribed
by
:: Allah - Most Exalted to Fir'aun in the Noble Qur'an saying: "Fir'aun had
:raised
:: himself in the earth and made its people into schisms, exploiting the
:weakness
::of a
:: group amongst them slaughtering their male children and keeping alive their
:: female children, he was indeed of the corrupters."

:: As for his foreign policies, for many years, Qaddhafi has been living under
:the
:: pressures that came through the Lockerbie disaster. This disaster effects
95%
::of
:: Qaddhafi's foreign policies, the latest of these effects being his departure
::from
:: Arab nationalism, and the change in the representation of Libya amongst the
::Arabic
:: countries shifting towards Africa. This is because Qaddhafi believes that
the
::Arabs
:: let him down with respect to Lockerbie and that they did not stand by his
side
:: against the Libyan boycott. These chaotic efforts by Qaddhafi indicate the
:: confusion in his foreign policy and his oblivion to any real political goals
::whether
:: internationally or regionally.

:: As for the economy, it is well-known that the policy of the regime in
:fighting
::the
:: private sector still continues. The regime embraces the ideology of
government
:: ownership for everything. This has led to the spread of corruption,
::exploitation, a fall
:: in productivity, a fall in the GDP and an increase in unemployment as the
::regime
:: finds itself unable to create any work opportunities.

:: The Libyan economy is witnessing a great expansion in the black market, and a
:: monopoly of the regime and its friends over the production of petrol and the
::wasting
:: of this resource in a manner that does not contribute to any growth in the
::country.
:: In general, industrial and agricultural productions are reducing every year.

:: On the social level, problems are on the increase as a result of government
:: policies or neglect for their population and not making the public aware of
::their
:: value to society nor of their rights and their obligations. This is also a
::result of the
:: spread of Western cultural values that are in contrast with Islamic values
and
:: beliefs, and are in direct contrast with Libyan values and culture.

:: A look at the family and its role in society, or the issue of women and
youth
::would
:: reveal the destructive role of the Qaddhafi regime in disfiguring and
:breaking
::down
:: Libyan society.

:: The situation with respect to essential services such as health, education,
:and
:: housing illustrates an incredible and very tragic situation that must be
::observed to
:: be believed.

:: Despite possessing great oil resources worth billions of dollars, and
despite
::only
:: having a population of five million, the Libyan population lives a life of
::poverty,
:: misery and backwardness.

:: How do the Libyan people behave towards the evils of Qaddhafi and his
:: henchmen?

:: Rejection is the predominant feeling amongst all classes of Libyan society,
:: meaning the rejection of Qaddhafi, his regime and policies, however, this is
::only at
:: the level of feelings and sentiments.

:: As for action and activities, we cannot say that the Libyan people in
general
::have
:: passed beyond the stage of sentiments to the stage of action. There are many
:: reasons for this, including the constriction of the regime and its tyranny
::which
:: knows no mercy towards those who oppose it or show any animosity towards it.
:: Another of these reasons is the fall in the level of awareness amongst the
::Libyan
:: people both on the religious aspect, with respect to the Kufr of Qaddhafi
and
::his
:: regime and the religious requirement to rebel against him, and from the
::political
:: aspect with respect to the participation of the public in general politics.
:For
::this
:: reason, we are witnessing the absence of the role of the people from
::confronting
:: Qaddhafi and his regime despite their rejection of his rule and despite
their
::enmity
:: towards him.

:: What are the principles which govern the relationship between the
:: Fighting Islamic Group and the present government?

:: We determine and establish our relationship with others in accordance with
the
:: Islamic Creed; from this also comes the nature of our relationship with the
:: governing regime in Libya. In accordance with this principle, we regard the
:: governing regime in Libya as an oppressive, corrupt and apostate regime that
:is
::at
:: war with Allah (s.w.t) and His Messenger (s.a.w).

:: Therefore, our relationship with the regime is one of enmity, hatred awar
:until
::Allah
:: judges between us.

:: Can you clarify for us the boundaries and the symbols of the presenbattle
:: between the Libyan regime and the FIG since the declaration by the
:: Group of Jihad against the regime, and what are the latest developments
:: on the field?

:: The battle between the Fighting Islamic Group and the Libyan regime from the
:: tactical and practical level relies on armed activity, that is, Jihad in the
::path of Allah.

:: However, as you are aware, the word Jihad in the path of Allah is a broad and
:: general term. For this reason, the main problem is how do we strive in the
:path
::of
:: Allah in our situation and in the field? Also, what is our goal from Jihad
in
::the path of
:: Allah? That is, to identify with accuracy the real goal that we wish to
:achieve
::from
:: the armed struggle.

:: For this reason, the symbols of the battle which the Fighting Islamic Group
is
:: engaged in with the Libyan regime can be reached through the understanding of
:: the FIG of the relationship between the sword and the book and between Jihad
::and
:: Da'wah and war and politics.

:: As for the most recent developments, these are tied to the aforementioned.
The
:: FIG has effected rational changes with respect to the relationship between
::armed
:: action and political Da'wah activities for the FIG. In fact, the FIG has
::created a new
:: perspective with respect to the employment of the armed struggle for its
:cause
::and
:: its call, all gained in the light of learning from the experience of the
past
::three years
:: when the battle was inflamed between the FIG and the regime.

:: Do you believe that assassinating Qaddhafi will lead to the downfall of
:: his regime, or that it will have a negative effect on the direction of the
:: battle to bring down the regime?

:: We believe that clearing the despot Qaddhafi will shake the Libyan regime to
a
:: large extent, and will realise many gains for the Fighting Islamic Group.

:: As for the pros and cons, there is no doubt that there are some negative
::aspects
:: which will develop as a result of the sudden disappearance of a person like
:: Qaddhafi. The most important two negatives are: that the country will enter
::into a
:: long civil war on a tribal basis. This problem does not depend on any
::substantial
:: evidence and is no more than a concern that may eventuate, however, the
:: possibility of such an eventuality is very minimal.

:: The second negative aspect is represented in the disappearance of Qaddhafi
:: himself, the presence of a person such as Qaddhafi which his personality and
:: mindset in power, gives you an important key with respect to the battle.
::Qaddhafi's
:: presence in fact brings us great support, as we would not be wrong in saying
::that
:: all the Libyan society holds him in contempt.

:: The second problem may be regarded as a real concern, however, with the
:: blessing of Allah Most Exalted and Most High, and through taking the
necessary
:: steps with respect to such circumstances, such an eventuality may have
:positive
:: results. The benefits that would eventuate as a result of the disappearance
of
:: Qaddhafi are great indeed. In fact, I would not be exaggerating if I said
:that
::getting
:: rid of Qaddhafi is the first tactical step to reach the goal.

:: How do the Mujahideen deal with the threats of Qaddhafi to eliminate
:: opposition outside of Libya?

:: The FIG has already issued a statement with respect to this threat. This
::statement
:: number 12 dated 24 Safar 1419 h which corresponds with 18 June 1998 CE. In
:this
:: statement, the FIG affirmed that the retaliation will be in kind and outside
:of
::Libya.

:: How do you view the future developments in the shade of the present
:: conspiracy against the Islamic Jihad movements by the enemies of
:: Allah?

:: In my view, the most dangerous development of its kind was the entry of the
::United
:: States of America into a direct confrontation arena against the Islamic
::movements.

:: The American missile attacks against Sudan and Afghanistan gives you an
:: indication of the size and nature of any future confrontations. The United
::States no
:: longer relies on its agents to constrict the Islamic tide; it has taken this
::role upon
:: itself. For this reason, all future developments as far as we can see, will
::turn
:: around that plane, with all that it involves of policies, plots and
::conspiracies.

:: Here comes the role of the Islamic movement, in that it must comprehend the
:: stance and recheck its priorities. It must also find the means, the manner,
:and
::the
:: transactions that will guarantee for it its continuance along the path to
its
::goal for
:: which it was established, and this goal is the adoption of an Islamic life
in
:a
:: geographical location on the world map.

:: What is required of the Muslims to support your Jihad movement in its
:: efforts to remove the apostate regime?

:: We have over the Muslims the right of succour and patronage, and this is a
:: religious matter that is commanded of us by our upright religion.

:: Support is divided into two parts: either financial, or spiritual. We are in
::need of both
:: equally, and every Muslim must offer what is within his ability, and Allah
:does
::not
:: burden a soul with greater than it can bear.

:: Final word:

:: "O you who believe, if you succour Allah, He will succour you and make firm
::your
:: feet, and those who disbelieve, misery for them, and their works will be
:lost,
::that is
:: because they hated what Allah had sent down, so He suppressed their works."
:: (47:7-9)

This problem does not depend on any :::substantial ::: evidence and is no more than a concern that may eventuate, however, the ::: possibility of such an eventuality is very minimal. ::: The second negative aspect is represented in the disappearance of Qaddhafi ::: himself, the presence of a person such as Qaddhafi which his personality and ::: mindset in power, gives you an important key with respect to the battle. :::Qaddhafi's ::: presence in fact brings us great support, as we would not be wrong in saying :::that ::: all the Libyan society holds him in contempt. ::: The second problem may be regarded as a real concern, however, with the ::: blessing of Allah Most Exalted and Most High, and through taking the :necessary ::: steps with respect to such circumstances, such an eventuality may have ::positive ::: results. The benefits that would eventuate as a result of the disappearance :of ::: Qaddhafi are great indeed. In fact, I would not be exaggerating if I said ::that :::getting ::: rid of Qaddhafi is the first tactical step to reach the goal. ::: How do the Mujahideen deal with the threats of Qaddhafi to eliminate ::: opposition outside of Libya? ::: The FIG has already issued a statement with respect to this threat. This :::statement ::: number 12 dated 24 Safar 1419 h which corresponds with 18 June 1998 CE. In ::this ::: statement, the FIG affirmed that the retaliation will be in kind and outside ::of :::Libya. ::: How do you view the future developments in the shade of the present ::: conspiracy against the Islamic Jihad movements by the enemies of ::: Allah? ::: In my view, the most dangerous development of its kind was the entry of the :::United ::: States of America into a direct confrontation arena against the Islamic :::movements. ::: The American missile attacks against Sudan and Afghanistan gives you an ::: indication of the size and nature of any future confrontations. The United :::States no ::: longer relies on its agents to constrict the Islamic tide; it has taken this :::role upon ::: itself. For this reason, all future developments as far as we can see, will :::turn ::: around that plane, with all that it involves of policies, plots and :::conspiracies. ::: Here comes the role of the Islamic movement, in that it must comprehend the ::: stance and recheck its priorities. It must also find the means, the manner, ::and :::the ::: transactions that will guarantee for it its continuance along the path to :its :::goal for ::: which it was established, and this goal is the adoption of an Islamic life :in ::a ::: geographical location on the world map. ::: What is required of the Muslims to support your Jihad movement in its ::: efforts to remove the apostate regime? ::: We have over the Muslims the right of succour and patronage, and this is a ::: religious matter that is commanded of us by our upright religion. ::: Support is divided into two parts: either financial, or spiritual. We are in :::need of both ::: equally, and every Muslim must offer what is within his ability, and Allah ::does :::not ::: burden a soul with greater than it can bear. ::: Final word: ::: "O you who believe, if you succour Allah, He will succour you and make firm :::your ::: feet, and those who disbelieve, misery for them, and their works will be ::lost, :::that is ::: because they hated what Allah had sent down, so He suppressed their works." ::: (47:7-9)
