Farrakhan Reports on Peace Mission - Transcript
& Audio Webcast
America�s enemy is injustice
I spoke to many Arab leaders, both
political and spiritual, and I can tell you that there is no Arab
country that does not desire better relations and friendship with
the United States of America. Even Iraq wants friendship with
America but on conditions that are fair and just. Whether the
leaders in that area agree with Saddam Hussein or not, none of
them with whom we spoke wanted to see bombs fall on Iraq and the
slaughter of innocent civilians just to get rid of a man that
America says is some threat to the world.

 U.S.
Role in Lumumba Murder Revealed
In his latest film, "Minority Report," director Steven Spielberg
portrays a policy of "preemptive action" gone wild in the year 2054. But
we don't have to peer into the future to see what harm faulty intelligence
and the loss of our moral compass can do. U.S. policies during the Cold
War furnish many tragic examples. One was U.S. complicity in the overthrow
and murder of Congolese Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba. Forty-one years
ago, Lumumba, the only leader ever democratically elected in Congo, was
delivered to his enemies, tortured and summarily executed.
