APPEAL
From Ummahnews.com
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ummahnews.com is the web's foremost source of independent Muslim news. It urgently seeks your support to expand and improve its services.
Ummahnews relies exclusively on your sadaqa (voluntary donations) to supply a constant stream of news of relevance to Muslims worldwide.
We are independent of any government or political organisation. In order to remain free of political control we urgently need your donations so that we can continue to pay journalists from around the globe to produce authoritative news, as well as reproduce on one site all the best news and views produced by other media organisations.
Our ulitmate aim is to have Muslim journalists reporting from every region on earth. However, this long term aim cannot be achieved without the continuous support of the Ummah we serve.
Unlike other charities and voluntary organisations not a single penny of what you give goes into administration costs. All donations go directly to provide very modest payments to journalists and also to keep our site software and hardware up to date.
Ummahnews urgently needs £20,000 to continue into the next year. We urge those of you who believe in a free, high quality Muslim news media to dig deep and help us carry on the good work we started about over a year ago.
For details on how to safely donate simply visit the "Support us" link on our site. You can use credit cards or wire money directly to our bank account in England.
Here are some of the things that our 75,000 weekly readers have said about the site:

Salam Alaykum,
I read the 30 August 2002 web edition of Ummah News and came across a story on the project Ibn Bax Foundation is undertaking to counter slander on Islam by the West.
Defending the Ummah of Rasulullah is duty incumbent on every Muslim. This is a time we all must stand up and be counted.
Thank you for giving us news around the world, with the Islamic perspective
I would like to have direct contact (e-mail etc) with Ibn Baz Foundation in respect of this project.
Ma Salam

Dear Sir Keep up the pressure on Americans who support Israel's ethnic cleansing of Palestine. I see little difference between Milosevic, Saddam and Sharon. All are guilty of annexing adjacent lands and/or expelling lawful landholders. Use America's law courts. They are not totally politicized to favor Israel as are the other institutions of our government. Every expelled resident or bulldozed tenant should be a plaintiff with his own case!

Assalamu alaikum.
I think you are doing a wonderful job. It is a shame you couldn't televise what you report.

Thank you for the insightful article, "After Iraq, Bush will attack his real target". I can not begin to express how wonderful it is to know that my fellow Americans are so "enlightened" about the propaganda in our country. It is truly amazing that our ancestors had more intelligence, not to mention questioning spirit, over 200 years ago! Please know that there is a minority of Americans who are aware of and oppose our government's tyrannical policies.
In solidarity, Dawn Aleta Borhan

I like your slant on the news. But many people in US are denying and ridiculing your stories to be propaganda. Please keep up the good work by presenting the truth.

It's the first time that i have come across ummahnews.com and my first impressions are very good, its something that the muslim ummah has been crying out for for years, a truely independent news source that focuses on islamic concerns and issues........... that muslims can can be informed regarding the state of the ummah without being subjected to media PREJUDICES and media LIES...... that muslims can be informed about the true situations in Afganistan, Bosnia, Palastine, Kashmir, Algeria,,so on...

Re: Palestinian resistance attacks continue in spite of iron Israeli grip
Excellent article. Simply excellent.
I often write small articles posted on Indymedia and positively use the correct terms such as "land thieves" instead of "settlers".
I think this should be done at all times.
