@PhillyMayor

Today, we honor 100 years of Malcolm X—and 100 men carrying his legacy forward. Malcolm taught us to stand tall in the face of injustice, to lead with pride, power, and purpose. And today, we uplift those doing exactly that—in their families, neighborhoods, and communities. To the 100 honorees: Because you stand, our communities rise. On behalf of the City of Philadelphia, thank you. Not just for what you do when the spotlight is on—but for the quiet, daily work that often goes unseen. We see you. We honor you. And we are inspired by you. Let's build a future worthy of Malcolm's legacy—with courage, conviction, and unity.

Black Supremacist Malcolm X Tried To Make Common Cause With The KKK

"…But Malcolm X was anything but mainstream and the passage of a half century should not soften attitudes toward him. To the end, he remained a radical, polarizing, bigoted figure, Martin Luther King's evil Doppelgänger. To support this description, recall two notorious statements. The first dates from Dec. 1, 1963, shortly after the assassination of John F. Kennedy, when Malcolm X responded with the comment that, "Being an old farm boy myself, chickens coming home to roost never did make me sad; they've always made me glad."

The second came in the course of a meeting with the Ku Klux Klan (itself a insight into his extremism) intended to win white racist support for the NoI black separatism project. According to a FBI report, Malcolm X assured the Klansmen that Jews were behind the integration movement they both despised. Joshua Muravchik concludes from this incident that Malcolm X "was a vociferous anti-Semite in both public and in private."

Malcolm X should accurately be remembered as the extremist he was. (February 21, 2015)

"Philadelphia Mayor's Office Of Muslim Engagement"

Mayor Parker's Quid Pro Quo To CAIR And Emgage

By Militant Islam Monitor

May 4, 2025

On May 19 2025 Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker issued an official decree titled Proclamation "By Any Means Transformation Day" 'to honor and further the legacy of Malcolm X.'

The language used in the thinly veiled religious 'transformation' initiative' utilizes Islamic religious terms like 'The Five Pillars' Of Transformation' aka (Five Pillars Of Islam) and calling for 'Spiritual Transformation' via 'Clean Hearts'.

This glorification of Malcolm X and his violent legacy which was epitomized by the slogan "By Any Means Necessary" was largely authored by Imam Quaiser Abdullah,the director of 'The Mayor's Office of Muslim Engagement' which was the 'first ever' Muslims only city government department in Philadelphia (and likely the first of its kind nationwide)..

Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker announced the creation of the "Mayor's Office of Muslim Engagement' two weeks after her inauguration, as a quid pro quo for being endorsed by and promise to deliver decisive votes of the majority of the 200,000+ Muslims in the city. The Muslim community's endorsement was announced by two nationally active Muslim stealth jihad groups, the Council On American Islamic Relations (CAIR) a front group for Hamas and a defendant in a 9/11 terror lawsuit which alleges that 'CAIR and CAIR Canada (collectively CAIR) have aided,abetted and materially sponsored Al-Qaeda and international terrorism.CAIR is an outgrowth of the Hamas front group the Islamic Association of Palestine.'

CAIR which bills itself as a Muslim civil rights group works in tandem with Emgage a PAC group which views 'political activism as a form of worship'. Emgage states that their aim is to 'ensure that the voices of the Muslim American community are heard, through town halls,solidarity prayers and campaigns.' Emgage's National and Pennslyvania Senior Advisor is Salima Suswell. In 2016 Suswell was an Advisory Board member of CAIR Philadelphia and 'focused on Governmental Relations and Community Outreach'. In 2023 Governor Josh Shapiro (a Jewish Democrat with presidential aspirations) 're'appointed Suswell to the Governors Advisory Council on Women.Suswell is also a director of the Philadelphia Eid Coalition which got Eid ul Fitr and Adha declared as official holidays in PA.

In addition to partnering with and thanking Imam Quaiser Abdullah, who heads the Mayor's Office on Muslim Engagement for helping craft the 'By Any Means Transformation and Malcolm X Day Proclamation' and the 'Five Pillars Transformation Intiatiative' Philadelphia Mayor Parker also thanked Muslim career politicians and stealth jihadists Senator Sharief Street and City Commissioner Omar Sabir who had both been instrumental in approving and announcing the CAIR/Emgage endorsement of her campaign in 2023.

Muslim Senator Sharief Street and Commissioner Omar Sabir are exploiting their political positions and clout to advance the interests of Muslims and to spread their religion of Islam in public institutions like schools and cynically exploit civic initiatives aimed at 'promoting the public good' to further their Islamic, anti Western and anti democratic agenda.In 2024 CAIR and Emgage held their second Muslim City Hall Day to "ensure our needs are met". During the first Muslim City Hall Day in 2023 the Adhan (Muslim call to prayer) was recited inside the City Hall chambers.Emgage Action on X: "There is something so impactful and powerful about hearing the Adhan (call to prayer) in City Hall! #MDCH https://t.co/8uVjSAPXzl" / X

The list of the steps of the '5 Pillars Of Transformation' Initiative was posted by Imam Quaiser Abdullah head of the Mayor's Office of Muslim Engagement. Imam Abdullah's use of 'Five Pillars' to outline the aims of the 'By Any Means Transformation' - Malcolm X Day' initiative is a reference to the 'Five Pillars of Islam' and underscores the Islamic nature of the initiative.

Malcolm Little aka Malcolm X ,was an America hating, black racist and Jew hater. He joined the NOI while in prison after being convicted of operating a burglary ring in Boston using White women to gain access to wealthy homes by posing as encyclopedia sales people.They would case the premises for valuables to be stolen.)

The Nation of Islam preached Black Supremacy, separatism and taught that White people had been 'created' by a black scientist named Yaqub who had overthrown the black tribe of Shabazz and would return on a spacecraft to destroy Whites and establish a Black utopia.After his release on parole in 1952 he became the spokesman for and Minister in the Nation of Islam (NOI) and is said to have increased the groups' membership from a few hundred to a few hundred thousand.He left the NOI in 1964 after a dispute with the then leader Elijah Muhammad whose sexual improprieties he had exposed.

Malcolm X went on Hajj to Saudi Arabia in 1994 and became a practioner of Sunni Islam adopting the name of El Hajj El Malik Shabazz.

Malcolm X's "By Any Means Necessary" speech in 1964 presented both his and the 'Black man's' grievances as a causus belli against America, whites,Jews and the West.

Philadelphia Mayor Parker's issuance of an official Proclamation predicated on the concept of 'By Any Means - "Transformation' city wide iniatiative to "honor the global legacy of Malcolm X" epitomizes the threats which DEI and her elevation of Islam as a as the 'official religion' of the City of Philadelphia by establishing the 'Mayor's Office of Muslim Engagement' in City Hall is both a violation of The Establishment Clause and sets both a destructive and dispruptive precedent under the guise of "affirming our city's commitment to transformative justice, equity and opportunity". https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/ending-radical-and-wasteful-government-dei-programs-and-preferencing/

Philadelphia's Mayor Cherelle Parker is hell bent on transforming City Hall into the City Caliphate as a payback to the Muslim groups CAIR/Emgage who endorsed her candidacy in 2023. The Mayor's Office of Muslim Engagement and the Mayor's May 19th Proclamation of a "By Any Means Transformation Day" "to honor the legacy of Malcolm X"... to serve and uplift every community" by 'means' of a 'Five Pillars' initiative authored by the Quba Institutes' (formerly 'The International Muslim Brotherhood Masjid) Imam Quaiser Abdullah is using The Mayors Office of Muslim Engagement for Dawah.(Islamic proselytizing).

The first of Imam Abdullah's 'Five Pillars of Transformation' list begins with the words "Spiritual Liberation-Clean Hearts" and ends with "Global Vision- A United City".

Imam Abdullah and his fellow Muslims believe the only way for people to acheive 'Spiritual Liberation' is to embrace Islam and become Muslims.

According to "Islam: A Manifesto Of Liberation"

"Islam is a liberation through submission:Liberation of lhe heart and soul..."

"Global Vision- A United City" refers to two aspects of the Muslim Ummah.

In "The Global Vision of the Early Muslims"' the author Abu Yusuf wrote: The...mindset of the early Muslims [who] had the vision to become a global power in order to carry the message of Islam to the world, and not to be satisfied to live as political minorities or live under the shadows of disbelieving powers". https://islamciv.com/2020/07/03/the-global-vision-of-the-early-muslims/

A United City is a reference to all non Muslims who are exposed to Islam using the guise of 'The Five Pillars of Transformation' initiatives like the one being promoted by the Philadelphia Mayor's Office of Muslim Engagement and convert.

For Muslims,"Ummah represents a community of different nationalities and backgrounds who are united by God (Allah)."

https://www.islam21c.com/politics/islam-a-manifesto-of-liberation/#:~:text=Islām%20is%20a%20system%20of,all%20things%20destructive%20to%20mankind.

The Philadelphia 'Mayor's Office For Muslim Engagement' is a taxpayer funded Dawah effort.

The citizens of 'The City of Brotherly Love' must demand that the Mayor Cherelle Parker, the CEO of Philadelphia rescind her May 19th "By Any Means Transformation Proclamation" intended to "honor the legacy of Malcolm X". She must also ensure that her tax payer funded "Office Of Muslim Engagement' which is operating under the aegis of The CIty Of Philadelphia" is closed down immediately.

Failure to do so by the Mayor on grounds of 'breaching the public trust' must result in a legal challenge based on the Establishment Clause,which will effectively and in essence be pitting the Constitution against the Koran.

Malcolm X in 1964

###############

Text of Malcolm X's "By Any Means Necessary" Speech on June 28, 1954

Malcolm X's life changed dramatically in the first six months of 1964. On March 8, he left the Nation of Islam. In May he toured West Africa and made a pilgrimage to Mecca, returning as El Hajj Malik El-Shabazz. While in Ghana in May, he decided to form the Organization of Afro-American Unity (OAAU). Malcolm returned to New York the following month to create the OAAU and on June 28 gave his first public address on behalf of the new organization at the Audubon Ballroom in the Washington Heights section of Manhattan. That address appears below.

Excerpt:

"Let's don't wait on any more FBI to look for criminals who are shooting and brutalizing our people. Let's you and me find them. And I say that it's easy to do it. One of the best organized groups of black people in America was the Black Muslims. They've got all the machinery, don't think they haven't; and the experience where they know how to ease out in broad daylight or in dark and do whatever is necessary by any means necessary. They know how to do that. Well, I don't blame anybody for being taught how to do that. You're living in a society where you're the constant victim of brutality. You must know how to strike back."

In Honor Of Malcolm X: Resources For A Liberated Palestine

By Sapelo Square

May 19, 2024

Today marks the 99th birthday of Malcolm X/El Hajj Malik El Shabazz, one of the greatest leaders for justice we have ever known. After leaving the Nation of Islam, he founded the Organization of Afro-American Unity (OAAU) that welcomed "all persons of African origin to come together to dedicate their ideas, skills and lives to free our people from oppression." However, he also opposed mistreatment of all oppressed people of color globally, especially that of the Palestinians, having visited the Gaza Strip in 1964. He called out Zionist ideologies and their root causes, making connections to the plight of African Americans in the United States, furthering Black and Palestinian solidarity.

[MIM: In 1964 the Gaza Strip was under Egyptian control until the Six Day War in 1967]

To amplify global efforts, we are compiling resources for those invested in continuing the fight to see a liberated Palestine. From individuals lifting their voices in media or holding gatherings for organizing, to organizations sending aid to our brothers and sisters in Palestine, as well as courageous students and professors protesting on college campuses, millions are creating or contributing to spaces that educate, support and advocate for a ceasefire and an end to the occupation and genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.

The closing quote of the OAAU's leaflet reads: "Be A Builder – Not A Beggar."

Sapelo Square is committed to help strengthen the collective efforts of justice and solidarity for all communities of color in honor of the legacy of Malcolm X/El Hajj Malik El Shabazz.

WHEN MALCOLM X MET THE NAZIS

Sam McPheeters April 15, 2015

Members of the American Nazi Party listened to Malcolm X speak at a Nation of Islam rally in Washington, DC, on June 25, 1961. Contact sheet © Eve Arnold/Magnum Photos

On Sunday, June 25, 1961, ten members of the American Nazi Party arrived at a Nation of Islam rally in Washington, DC. The party's founder, George Lincoln Rockwell, led them inside the Uline Arena, a quarter-million-square-foot stadium that would later host the Beatles' first US concert. Ramrod-straight, square-jawed, and with a merciless, piercing gaze, Rockwell looked like a Hollywood villain straight out of central casting. ("How much taller he is than Hitler," Esquire noted in an otherwise withering essay. "And how much better-looking.") The Uline had nearly sold out. The Nazis were outnumbered 800 to one.

The fascists hadn't come to make a bloody last stand. Instead, guards from the Fruit of Islam, the NOI's paramilitary branch, frisked the men and ushered them to front-row-center seats. Their crisp brownshirt costumes and swastika armbands stood out against the suits and ties surrounding them. Despite the 90-degree heat, Rockwell and his men waited hours for the event's main attraction. There is no record of anyone cracking a smile at the situation's absurdity.

The night's keynote speaker, NOI leader Elijah Muhammad, canceled his appearance because of illness. According to historian William Schmaltz, Malcolm X delivered a speech, followed by an appeal for donations that singled out the few Caucasians in the audience. Rockwell contributed $20. When Life photographer Eve Arnold raised her camera to capture the Nazis, Rockwell—presumably alerted to her Jewish ancestry by the Muslims—allegedly rasped, "I'll make a bar of soap out of you." (She replied, "As long as it isn't a lampshade.")

Overt anti-Semitism, it turned out, was something the two groups could bond over. While Rockwell pushed his hatred of Jews to frothy extremes, Muhammad backed a range of racist theories, including the hoax that the Jews had financed the slave trade. (Malcolm X was cagier about his anti-Semitism, often deferring to Muhammad's conspiracy theories rather than offering his own.) To publicly rage against Jews in the summer of 1961 may have offended the general public even more than it would today. Six thousand miles away, the Adolf Eichmann trial, in Israel, had captivated the world and dramatically increased coverage of Holocaust atrocities.

Division of the races was another mutual bugbear. Malcolm X's speech that night was titled "Separation or Death." Inside the arena, Rockwell told reporters, "I am fully in concert with their program, and I have the highest respect for Elijah Muhammad." The question of where to send America's blacks—the NOI wanted a chunk of the US, while the ANP wanted a full deportation to Africa—was, he said, his only quarrel with the Muslims.

This wasn't quite true. The Nazis and NOI also disagreed over whether black people were human beings. Over the course of his three-year career as an open Nazi, Rockwell had repeatedly referred to African Americans as "ring-in-the-nose niggers," "basically animalistic," and "no better than chimpanzees." With the alliance, he'd suddenly slapped a massive asterisk onto his own white supremacy.

Remarkably, the NOI had a history of such partnerships. Six months earlier, Muhammad had sent Malcolm X to a top-secret meeting with the Atlanta Ku Klux Klan. In a throwback to Marcus Garvey's 1922 Klan summit, the two groups brokered a bizarre truce: local mosque safety in return for NOI support on racial separation.

But that meeting had served a purpose, no matter how tenuous. The alliance with the Nazis held no obvious benefit for the Muslims. The differences between Malcolm X and Rockwell were existential. Where the former had risen from a life of crime to national prominence, the latter had exerted himself—and destroyed his family and finances—to become a national pariah, sinking from a decorated Navy officer to a delusional Nazi commander in just six years.

Overt anti-Semitism, it turned out, was something the two groups could bond over.

The Washington summit would have provided a bitter contrast to Rockwell's normal, meager gatherings. An audience of 8,000 was something he could have only dreamed of. Even the building's imposing vaulted ceiling hinted at the fascist architecture he saw as his inalienable destiny (throughout his career, he made repeated references to controlling the United States by 1972). For the Nazi leader, the alliance served a fantasy rooted in grandiose absurdism. "Can you imagine a rally of the American Nazis in Union Square," Rockwell later wrote his followers, "protected from Jewish hecklers by a solid phalanx of Elijah Muhammad's stalwart black stormtroopers?"

And where Malcolm X was famously complex, Rockwell self-identified as a cartoon character. With the media controlled by Jews, he'd reasoned, mainstream political protest from the extreme right was doomed to failure through obscurity.

I tried and nobody paid attention to me," he later told an interviewer of his pre-Nazi political activities. "But no one can ignore Nazis marching in the streets."

Following this logic, the ANP produced a variety of merchandise catering to the juvenile bigot. One item, The Diary of Anne Fink (16 pages of Holocaust atrocity photos with jokey captions), was advertised in The Rockwell Report as "sick humor," an odd allusion to Mad magazine, Lenny Bruce, and a world of Jewish, "degenerate" comedy that the Nazis should, logically, have railed against.

One result of this oafish marketing was that Rockwell recruited exceptionally inept personnel, attracting hordes of Nazis he admitted were "unbelievably stupid." And yet he persisted in shooting for the lowest common denominator's lowest common denominator. The ANP mocked the anti-segregation Freedom Riders with a VW van dubbed the "Hate Bus." Some ANP picketers wore Groucho Marx glasses and rubber noses in their protests. Why would the famously disciplined NOI ally itself with such caricatures?

AMERICAN NAZI PARTY

The ANP was founded in 1959 by George Lincoln Rockwell in Arlington, Vriginia. Rockwell was assasinated eight years later by a former ANP member.

A possible answer came eight months later. On February 25, 1962, the ANP was invited to a second rally, this time the NOI's Saviours' Day convention in Chicago. Rockwell addressed the crowd after Muhammad. Facing an estimated 12,000 African Americans, the Nazi leader pulled no punches.

"You know that we call you 'niggers.' But wouldn't you rather be confronted by honest white men who tell you to your face what the others all say behind your back?"

As a public speaker, Rockwell was entertaining without being particularly authoritative (in cadence, he mimicked comedian Red Skelton). His was not the voice of a führer, and the Chicago International Amphitheater wasn't his Nuremberg Rally. Surely the irony of the moment wouldn't have escaped him; this was the largest crowd he'd ever addressed (and would ever address again).

"I am not afraid to stand here and tell you I hate race-mixing and will fight it to the death," Rockwell continued. "But at the same time, I will do everything in my power to help the Honorable Elijah Muhammad carry out his inspired plan for land of your own in Africa. Elijah Muhammad is right. Separation or death!" The audience teetered between polite applause and boos. Two months later, Muhammad, writing in the NOI newspaper, admonished his flock for their frosty reception: "If they are speaking the truth for us, what do we care? We'll stand on our heads and applaud!"

This mutual nod to "honesty" and "truth" gives us a peek at the possible foundation of the alliance. Rockwell and Muhammad saw each other as authentic, as people willing to speak the truth—their versions of it—no matter the cost. Their marketing to their constituencies depended on this image, and each man drew legitimacy from the appearance of being a straight shooter. Rockwell's existence was useful to the NOI as a recruiting tool, his physical presence a testament to Muhammad's own authenticity.

Malcolm X wasn't part of this legitimacy trap, and he made it known that Rockwell's high esteem wasn't reciprocated. When the Nazi was applauded in 1961 for donating $20, Malcolm X laughed into the microphone and said, "You got the biggest hand you ever got, didn't you, Mr. Rockwell?"

As the civil rights struggles of the 50s gave way to the triumphs of the early 60s, both men found themselves operating in the vast shadow of Martin Luther King Jr. The Nazis, challenged by the juggernaut of legislative triumphs following King's actions, dug in. Malcolm X, faced with a growing gap between his NOI rhetoric and the successes of nonviolent action, softened his tone.

Rockwell and Muhammad saw each other as authentic, as people willing to speak the truth—their versions of it—no matter the cost.

After leaving the NOI in 1964, Malcolm X used the movement's alliance with the Klan as a charge against Muhammad. The following year, he sent a telegram to George Lincoln Rockwell:

This is to warn you that I am no longer held in check from fighting white supremacists by Elijah Muhammad's separatist Black Muslim movement, and that if your present racist agitation against our people there in Alabama causes physical harm to Reverend King or any other black Americans who are only attempting to enjoy their rights as free human beings, that you and your Ku Klux Klan friends will be met with maximum physical retaliation…

Within three years, both men were dead, allegedly assassinated by former allies.

But the ghost of the alliance lives on today. The Nation of Islam, under the auspices of Louis Farrakhan, maintains an open partnership with white supremacist Tom Metzger. And in the last decade, the American Nazi Party website established a "Non-Aryan Sympathizer Page," offering "a means for non-whites to aid in our struggle" with mail-in contributions.

Malcolm X's posthumous alliance was stranger still: mainstream acceptance by the white-supremacist society he fought against in life. The US government eventually awarded him a postage stamp.

Malcolm X: Compilation of anti-Jewish statements

August 7, 2020 by ACD

Malcolm X's statements on Jews, Israel, and Zionism

Malcolm X's speech at UC Berkeley (October 11, 1963)

"So that in Islam, since we believe that there is one God, we believe that all of the prophets who came forth on this earth taught the same religion. Abraham was a Muslim; Moses was a Muslim; Jesus was a Muslim. And as Black men in America, we accept the religion of Islam because we recognize it as the true religion of God. This is why I'm a Muslim. I am a Muslim because the Honorable Elijah Muhammad has taught me that Islam is God's only religion. And it does say in the Holy Qur'an that this religion [Islam] will overcome all other religions."

Malcolm X's speech at Harvard Law School Forum (December 16, 1964)

"I'm a Muslim. Now if something is wrong with being Muslim, we can argue, we can "get with it." I'm a Muslim, which means that I believe in the religion of Islam. I believe in Allah, the same God that many of you would probably believe in if you knew more about Him. I believe in all of the prophets: Abraham, Moses, Jesus, Muhammad. Most of you are Jewish, and you believe in Moses; you might not pick Jesus. If you're Christians, you believe in Moses and Jesus. Well, I'm Muslim, and I believe in Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad. I believe in all of them. So I think I'm "way up on you."

Malcolm X's sermon "Black Man's History" (December 1962)

"It's because the Jews have the longest record of history that they can call themselves the Chosen People. The Christians can't call themselves the Chosen People because their history is not long enough. They can't go back to the time when the choice was being made. The Hebrews, the so-called Jews, can go back so far they can lay claim to that which is actually not theirs. But the reason they can claim it is that nobody else they are dealing with can go back far enough to disprove them. Except the Muslims… Remember, Abraham's religion was Islam. Abraham wasn't a Jew, Abraham wasn't a Christian, Abraham wasn't a Buddhist, Abraham was a Muslim, which means he obeyed God… Who is the seed of Abraham? Is it this blue-eyed, blond-haired, pale-skinned Jew? Or is it the so-called Negro — you? Who is it? And what makes it so pitiful, many of our people would rather believe that the Jews are God's Chosen People than to believe that they are God's Chosen People. They would rather believe that the Jew is better than anybody else.

This is a Negro. Nobody else would put everybody else above him but the Negro. I mean the American Negro. Remember, God said that the people would be strangers. The Jews aren't strangers. The Jews know their history, the Jews know their culture, the Jews know their language; they know everything there is to know about themselves. They know how to rob you, they know how to be your landlord, they know how to be your grocer, they know how to be your lawyer, they know how to join the NAACP [National Association for the Advancement of Colored People] and become the president -right or wrong? They know how to control everything you've got. You can't say they're lost… Isn't that what the Jews told Jesus? Now look at it. If the Jews said to Jesus, two thousand years after Moses supposedly led the Hebrews out of bondage, that they had never been in bondage -now you know the Jews had Moses' history, they knew who Moses was- how could they stand up and tell Jesus they had never been in bondage? Not these things that you call Jews.

They weren't in Egypt, they weren't the people that Moses led out of Egypt, and the Jews know this. But the Bible is written in such a tricky way, when you read it you think that Moses led the Jews out of bondage. But if you get a Jew in a good solid conversation today and you know how to talk to him, he'll have to admit this, that it wasn't out of bondage that Moses brought them – it was out of somewhere else- and where Moses really brought them is their secret, but, thanks to Almighty God,

The Honorable Elijah Muhammad knows their secret, and he told it to us and we're going to tell it to you… at the end of time one would come who would destroy the whole white race. Moses taught them [the Jews] this. And this is why when the Jews, two thousand years later, were looking for the Messiah, they thought that Jesus was the Messiah and they put him to death because they knew when the Messiah came he was going to destroy that whole race of devils.

The Jews knew this, so they put him to death thinking that they could stop him from destroying them. But actually, they made a mistake because Jesus two thousand years ago wasn't the Messiah. Their time wasn't up two thousand years ago. Their time would not be up until two thousand years later, the day and time that we're living in right now. So, brothers and sisters, my time has expired.

I just wanted to point out that the white man, a race of devils, was made six thousand years ago. This doesn't mean to tell you that this implies any kind of hate. They're just a race of devils. They were made six thousand years ago, they were made to rule for six thousand years.

Alex Haley Interviews Malcolm X (May 1963)

Malcolm X: "Another thing to think of—in the 20th Century, the Christian Church has given us two heresies: fascism and communism. Where did fascism start? Where's the second-largest Communist party outside of Russia?

The answer to both is Italy. Where is the Vatican? But let's not forget the Jew. Anybody that gives even a just criticism of the Jew is instantly labeled anti-Semite. The Jew cries louder than anybody else if anybody criticizes him. You can tell the truth about any minority in America, but make a true observation about the Jew, and if it doesn't pat him on the back, then he uses his grip on the news media to label you anti-Semite.

Let me say just a word about the Jew and the black man. The Jew is always anxious to advise the black man. But they never advise him how to solve his problem the way the Jews solved their problem. The Jew never went sitting-in and crawling-in and sliding-in and freedom-riding, like he teaches and helps Negroes to do.

The Jews stood up, and stood together, and they used their ultimate power, the economic weapon.

That's exactly what the Honorable Elijah Muhammad is trying to teach black men to do. The Jews pooled their money and bought the hotels that barred them. They bought Atlantic City and Miami Beach and anything else they wanted. Who owns Hollywood? Who runs the garment industry, the largest industry in New York City? But the Jew that's advising the Negro joins the NAACP, CORE, the Urban League, and others. With money donations, the Jew gains control, then he sends the black man doing all this wading-in, boring-in, even burying-in—everything but buying-in. Never shows him how to set up factories and hotels. Never advises him how to own what he wants. No, when there's something worth owning, the Jew's got it. Walk up and down in any Negro ghetto in America. Ninety percent of the worthwhile businesses you see are Jew-owned. Every night they take the money out. This helps the black man's community stay a ghetto."

Interview (January 23, 1963)

Malcolm X: "We'll do it the same way the Jews got what they wanted. They got their own state, their own country. No, they got it, and yeah, well you're right, it was given to them by England and Truman. But, sir, no the Jews are the ones who usually represent themselves as white liberals. More so probably than any other segment of this society. Now if the Jews are genuinely liberal and they want to help the Negro, then they should show the Negro how to use the same kind of strategy and tactics to solve his problem that they used to solve their problems. And you'll find that all over this country, wherever the Jews have been segregated and Jim Crowed, they haven't sat in, they haven't been sittin' or Freedom Riders, they [the Jews] usually go and use the economic weapon. They bought Atlantic City, and now they can go there. They bought Miami Beach and now they can go there."

Malcolm X's article "Zionist Logic: Malcolm X on Zionism", The Egyptian Gazette (September 17, 1964)

"The Zionist armies that now occupy Palestine claim their ancient Jewish prophets predicted that in the "last days of this world" their own God would raise them up a "messiah" who would lead them to their promised land, and they would set up their own "divine" government in this newly-gained land, this "divine" government would enable them to "rule all other nations with a rod of iron."

If the Israeli Zionists believe their present occupation of Arab Palestine is the fulfillment of predictions made by their Jewish prophets, then they also religiously believe that Israel must fulfill its "divine" mission to rule all other nations with a rod of irons, which only means a different form of iron-like rule, more firmly entrenched even, than that of the former European Colonial Powers.

These Israeli Zionists religiously believe their Jewish God has chosen them to replace the outdated European colonialism with a new form of colonialism, so well disguised that it will enable them to deceive the African masses into submitting willingly to their "divine" authority and guidance, without the African masses being aware that they are still colonized.

The Israeli Zionists are convinced they have successfully camouflaged their new kind of colonialism. Their colonialism appears to be more "benevolent," more "philanthropic," a system with which they rule simply by getting their potential victims to accept their friendly offers of economic "aid," and other tempting gifts, that they dangle in front of the newly-independent African nations, whose economies are experiencing great difficulties. During the 19th century, when the masses here in Africa were largely illiterate it was easy for European imperialists to rule them with "force and fear," but in this present era of enlightenment the African masses are awakening, and it is impossible to hold them in check now with the antiquated methods of the 19th century.

The imperialists, therefore, have been compelled to devise new methods. Since they can no longer force or frighten the masses into submission, they must devise modern methods that will enable them to manouevre the African masses into willing submission.

The modern 20th century weapon of neo-imperialism is "dollarism." The Zionists have mastered the science of dollarism: the ability to come posing as a friend and benefactor, bearing gifts and all other forms of economic aid and offers of technical assistance. Thus, the power and influence of Zionist Israel in many of the newly "independent" African nations has fast-become even more unshakeable than that of the 18th century European colonialists… and this new kind of Zionist colonialism differs only in form and method, but never in motive or objective.

At the close of the 19th century when European imperialists wisely foresaw that the awakening masses of Africa would not submit to their old method of ruling through force and fears, these ever-scheming imperialists had to create a "new weapon," and to find a "new base" for that weapon.

DOLLARISM

The number one weapon of 20th century imperialism is zionist dollarism, and one of the main bases for this weapon is Zionist Israel. The ever-scheming European imperialists wisely placed Israel where she could geographically divide the Arab world, infiltrate and sow the seed of dissension among African leaders and also divide the Africans against the Asians.

Zionist Israel's occupation of Arab Palestine has forced the Arab world to waste billions of precious dollars on armaments, making it impossible for these newly independent Arab nations to concentrate on strengthening the economies of their countries and elevate the living standard of their people.

And the continued low standard of living in the Arab world has been skillfully used by the Zionist propagandists to make it appear to the Africans that the Arab leaders are not intellectually or technically qualified to lift the living standard of their people … thus, indirectly "inducing" Africans to turn away from the Arabs and towards the Israelis for teachers and technical assistance.

"They cripple the bird's wing, and then condemn it for not flying as fast as they."

The imperialists always make themselves look good, but it is only because they are competing against economically crippled newly independent countries whose economies are actually crippled by the Zionist-capitalist conspiracy. They can't stand against fair competition, thus they dread Gamal Abdul Nasser's call for African-Arab Unity under Socialism.

MESSIAH?

If the "religious" claim of the Zionists is true that they were to be led to the promised land by their messiah, and Israel's present occupation of Arab Palestine is the fulfillment of that prophesy: where is their messiah whom their prophets said would get the credit for leading them there? It was Ralph Bunche who "negotiated" the Zionists into possession of Occupied Palestine! Is Ralph Bunche the messiah of Zionism? If Ralph Bunche is not their messiah, and their messiah has not yet come, then what are they doing in Palestine ahead of their messiah?

Did the Zionists have the legal or moral right to invade Arab Palestine, uproot its Arab citizens from their homes and seize all Arab property for themselves just based on the "religious" claim that their forefathers lived there thousands of years ago? Only a thousand years ago the Moors lived in Spain. Would this give the Moors of today the legal and moral right to invade the Iberian Peninsula, drive out its Spanish citizens, and then set up a new Moroccan nation … where Spain used to be, as the European zionists have done to our Arab brothers and sisters in Palestine?…

In short the Zionist argument to justify Israel's present occupation of Arab Palestine has no intelligent or legal basis in history … not even in their own religion. Where is their Messiah?
