Demolish Masjid Al-Haram, demands Saudi Sheikh

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia: A Salfi Saudi cleric on Wednesday March 17 has called for demolishing the Grand Mosque (Masjid Al-Haram) in the holy city of Makkah and replacing it with a new one featuring "20 to 30" floors in pretext of preventing men and women from mingling during pilgrimages (sha’a’er ot-Tawaf was Sa`ee) which has been in Muslim practice since centuries, says a report in daily Akhbar Al Khaleej.

Sheikh Yousaf Al-Ahmed, an Islamic scholar and a teacher in Muhammad bin Saud Islamic University, was speaking during a phone-in on a Saudi satellite television show.

A viewer posed video footage of the show on the YouTube website, dubbing the cleric "the new Ibraha" after the tyrant who wanted to demolish the Ka'aba 14 centuries ago.

The present Grand Mosque has three floors and is the largest mosque in the world. It is built around the Kaaba, the most sacred place in Islam.

Earlier, the Saudi government has razed a number of holy sites that belonged to the Prophet Muhammad (s), his holy progeny, wives and companions in the holy cities of Makkah and Medinah etc sending a wave of anger in the Muslim world. (www.abna.ir)

Supporting the Palestinians

It is absolutely important to note that every single day Israel continues to remain an entity and country or occupy militarily the sanctioned land to Palestinians – they are refusing to abide by international law and the standards set regarding human rights on a global level. There are millions of refugees in modern “Palestine” who still remember the exodus they were forced into during 1948 and again in 1967. Some of the older Palestinians are still holding onto their house keys, attempting to keep hope alive that they will one day return home – and their home will still be there. Israel, through political and military means, have made an attempt to exterminate the Palestinians from this land and through the sympathy garnered to them through the holocaust and their historical struggle during European/Roman rule – they have been granted immunity from discrimination or questioning in justifying their terrible human rights record, their occupation, war atrocities for years now, or brutal terrorization, subjugation, and slaughter of millions of people. >Read complete article<

NASA: Chile Quake May Have Shifted Earth's Axis

Chilean earthquake may have resulted in a shorter day and a slight shift in the Earth's axis.

Just a few days ago, an earthquake that measured 8.8 rocked Chile. The quake was stronger than the temblor that left thousands homeless in Haiti not too long ago. This week, NASA says it may have been strong enough to cause the Earth's axis to move.

BusinessWeek cites a National Aeronautics and Space Administration scientist who says the Chilean earthquake on February 27 probably shifted the Earth’s axis and shortened your Saturday by about 1.26 microseconds.

Richard Gross, a geophysicist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California told BW that Earthquakes can shift hundreds of kilometers of rock by several meters, changing the distribution of mass on the planet. This in turn can have an effect on the Earth's rotation.

“The length of the day should have gotten shorter by 1.26 microseconds (millionths of a second),” Gross, said. “The axis about which the Earth’s mass is balanced should have moved by 2.7 milliarcseconds (about 8 centimeters or 3 inches).”

However, it's not just NASA that thinks the quake could have affected the Earth in ways we're unaware of. Andreas Rietbrock, a professor of Earth Sciences at Liverpool University says Santa Maria Island off the coast of Chile may have been raised 2 meters as a result of the earthquake. Rietbrock said rocks there show evidence that suggests other earthquakes have shifted the island upward in the past.
