The GAZA Massacre: One Year On…

On December 27, 2008, Israel began one of the bloodiest attacks on Gaza Since 1948. The three week assault killed some 1400 Palestinians and 13 Israelis. One year later, little to no rebuilding has taken place and the siege in Gaza continues.

What can you do for Gaza?

This event will cover the events that occurred during the Gaza war, the progress over the past year and the humanitarian issues involved.

Speakers:

Mr Raza Kazim
Senior Spokesperson
Islamic Human Rights Commission

Mr Toufic Machnouk
Associate Director
Institute for Policy Research and Development

The event will also include a fundraiser for the charity, Medical Aid for Palestinians.

Islam and the Modern Age

In view of the present state of marvellous rate of progress, can one really believe that Islam can cater to the needs of the modern world? Today, when man, by the means of his power of reason, is conquering the planets and is able to journey far out into the depths of space, is it not time for us to discard such ancient dogmas and concentrate our vision and will on the pursuit of our magnificent victories, pursuing the modern sophisticated way of life?
