  • USA Seeks Deportation of Palestinian-Texans

    email from Dallas attorney John Wheat Gibson, Jan. 10, 2007

    BICE [the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement] has announced it will deport the Suleiman family as soon as it arranges a flight. BICE is looking for the [5-year-old, American-born] twin daughters so it can fly them to Jordan with their parents and brother. BICE refuses to wait for the Board of Immigration Appeals to decide their pending motion to reopen.

    Adel Suleiman, you may recall, was recognized as a refugee by the UNHCR, and when he applied for asylum in the US, the asylum officer who interviewed him recommended approval, but was overruled by a supervisor because of a blanket policy of the Houston Asylum Office to deny all Palestinian asylum applications, regardless of the merits, since to approve them might embarrass the government of Israel. . . .

    Dear John:

    How are these sorts of messages conveyed? . . . . Also, information has been flowing quickly, so I’ve missed the fact of twin daughters. Can you say any more about who they are or why they would be difficult to locate?

    We all have been concentrating on the Ibrahim file. Mr. Suleiman is the diabetic in Oklahoma. BICE officer Calvin Meredith told me he is in Oklahoma County Jail, Oklahoma City. Phone (405)713-1930. Meredith is
    trying to arrange deportation. The daughters are twins, 5-years-old, United States citizens. They have been with a relative since their parents and brother were kidnapped. Mr. Suleiman has not been allowed to make a telephone call since December 20, 2006, when he called his sister-in-law in Fort Worth. So far I have received nothing but the run-around when I call
    the Oklahoma County Jail to try to set up a telephone conference with Mr. Suleiman.

    There is a signed and notarized copy of the attached affidavit in our files.

Our annual total of site visits doubled in 2006, compared to 2005 (to which we add the standard disclaimer, that the numbers are not anywhere near mass-media quantities, but then again, we don’t try to act much like mass media quality, do we?)–gm (Dec. 27-31)

  • Archive: MetroPlex Media on Ibrahim Abduction

    It is an excellent report about the abduction of the Ibrahim family presented by reporter Ken Kalthoff in Richardson, aired on the five o’clock news, December 6. Ahmad Ibrahim only has one reservation: “they say it’s an upscale neighborhood, but it’s only an apartment complex.”

    And apologies to Ken and crew from your Editor, for saying that no other reports on these abductions had been done.–gm (Dec. 29)

    that his life has been renewed. Ramsey asked that I share
    the enclosed, and submit the words as shown below.–Irma Muniz


    Soy 21st Century Mexicano

    It’s so beautiful! Our ancient stone masons were the greatest
    architects! They left us a foundation upon which we are building our
    temple in Aztlan. Just being "tribe" (love, comradeship, equality), we
    are a cultured people of men and women like yourselves; we are the
    living house of the temple. We are creating an awareness in Aztlan that
    is so healthy that we are a "life force." We shall always be good
    health for one another. The information (cultural and spiritual) that I
    am submitting to you, mi raza, is giving us a clarity our builders
    possessed in the time of Aztlan. I know that one day…one morning…their
    children and we, the descendants, would also do our homework and create
    Mexicayotl (consciousness) and learn their craft and use it not only to
    rebuild the temple, but also to rebuild ourselves
    spiritually.
    We are the most exquisite living art – an art form that is
    Nahuatl. We not only sound beautiful, we are beautiful! The beauty and
    intensity of our love for one another is equal to that divine love that
    our ancient stone masons shared with our people during the dawn of our
    civilization.

    Now we are doing our homework and learning the connection
    between the stone masons of Aztlan and the free and accepted
    Mexicans of the present day, so as to understand perfectly the process
    by which our origin changed from an operative art to a speculative
    science. And so, we must attentively study and thoroughly digest these
    ancient records of our forefathers.

    The Mexican codices are essential to our studies. We must
    acquire them because we know that they refer historically to the
    regeneration of our lives! Nosotros somos la fuerza de vida nueva de
    "los masons de una vez – en un tiempo de Aztlan." We must learn how to
    rebuild ourselves step by step – degree by degree. We must not reject
    the signs. Every keystone they placed in the center of every arch shall
    "spiritually" secure firmness
    and stability in our lives. Every cornerstone they laid with
    impressive ceremonies were done in our honor; and since
    the cornerstone is the stone which lies at the corner of the foundation
    of an edifice.

    We are the living permanence and durability of the cornerstone of Aztlan – well-formed, true and everlasting.

    Mexi (me-sheek) is the master builder of souls, and in
    Torquemada’s Monarquia Indiana we learn that Mexi gave us his name,
    proclaiming us to be materially worthy of the spiritual building of
    eternal life – fitted as living stones for that house not made with
    hands -eternal in Tamoanchan.

    Tezcatlipoca, Mexi’s archangel, is the chief corner-stone and in
    Mexicayotl (la masoneria Mexicano) symbolism, the "chief
    cornerstone" signifies a true Mexican. Tezcatlipoca is our
    "mirror of destiny," the mirror of understanding and the imagination.

    No soy Latino/Americano
    No soy Mexicano/Americano
    No soy Chicano
    No soy Hispanico/Latino
    Soy 21st Century Mexicano!!!
    Watch me rise!!!

    This is me…this is my life…this is my destiny!!!
