We have learned that approximately 50 federal agents are still inside the business offices of an Internet Service Provider after an early morning raid yesterday. The InfoCom corporate building in Richardson, Texas was first surrounded and then evacuated in the early morning hours. The FBI has shut down servers that host many websites serving the refugee Palestinian community. At least one of the websites was for the purpose of charity. The website for the Holy Land Foundation raises funds in the United States to help countless Palestinians that have been adversely affected by Israel's racist apartheid policies. Other websites that have been shut down include those for the Muslim Students Association, the Islamic Society of North America, and for the Islamic Association for Palestine

This is an ominous development and a trampling of the First Amendment Right that should anger every decent American that believes in the U.S. Constitution. There are extremely powerful elements in our society that are now utilizing the police powers of the federal government to suppressed freedom of speech, expression and of the press. There have been repeated attempts by Zionists to shut down La Voz de Aztlan as well. Recently the Rabbi Abraham Cooper of the Simon Weisenthal Center made some comments in the Jewish Journal of Los Angeles that were designed to call the attention of the Zionist community to our publication. Soon after the publication of the rabbi's comments, we started receiving a barrage of hate e-mail, computer viruses and pressure from our own Internet Service Provider.

The raid on InfoCom Corporation came after similar commentary by hateful Zionists who write for the Wall Street Journal of New York. Writers Steven Emerson and Daniel Pipes, called upon the federal government to shut down the web sites of the Islamic Association for Palestine and of the Holy Land Foundation which the FBI did yesterday. Emerson and Pipes wrote in an August 13 column in the Wall Street Journal: "The time has also come for the US to support Israel . . ." "The federal authorities should use the tools it already has in closing down these web sites and organizations," they wrote.

The Zionist owned media in the United States has a lot of power to influence the federal government. They want to be the only ones with the ability to disseminate information which includes opinions about important issues affecting the world such as the crisis in the Middle East. They are very concerned about the Internet because it is about the only truly free medium that they can not control (yet). The Rabbi Abraham Cooper of the Simon Weisenthal Center, for example, has a multi-million dollar budget exclusively to lobby the U.S. Congress for laws that will enable them to control the content of the Internet. Rabbi Cooper never mentions the horrible pornography on the Internet but focuses on websites like ours that have published editorials critical of the Zionists. Recently, a candidate for mayor of Los Angeles admitted that he had "put together over 18 million dollars for Rabbi Cooper" while he was Speaker of the California State Assembly.

We can not sit back and allow the Zionists to gradually erode our sacred rights guaranteed by the greatest political document men has ever written and that is the United States Constitution. Presently most of the members of the U.S. Congress are in the pockets of extremely wealthy and powerful Zionist business interests. We must turn the tide and expose these Zionist lackeys before all Americans are enslaved and then it will be too late. We are already suffering the consequences of the ever tightening noose.
