Did Devout Muslim Muhammad Ali Ever Speak About US NATO Genocide in the Muslim Middle East?

Only weeks after Ali's blistering statement, Rev. Martin Luther King from the pulpit of New York's Riverside Church called his government "the greatest purveyor of violence in the world," and held all Americans (including himself) responsible for "atrocity wars and covert violence on three continents since 1945, for refusing to give up the privileges and the pleasures that come from the immense profits of overseas investments these atrocity wars are meant to maintain." King vilified in media owned by investors in wars and deserted by friends and fellow civil rights leaders, received his bullet to the head a year to the day after that sermon King had titled "Beyond Vietnam - a Time to Break Silence."

- Afghanistan: Apropos Ali's " murder and burn another poor nation simply to continue the domination of white slave masters of the darker people the world over," every single nation of Caucasian population, even tiny Andorra, Lichtenstein and Monaco, have taken part in an international coalition that is now in its sixteenth year of killing Afghanistan's defenders against foreign invaders and the Quisling drug lord government the USA has imposed. [see No Afghani Ever Attacked the US, UK, EU, Australia or Anywhere Else Synopis: In 1979, President Carter criminally ordered an attack upon a friendly and popular women's liberating socialist Kabul government by CIA covert funding, arming and training fundamentalist hill tribe war lords, who did not want their daughters in school. Brzezinski correctly advised it would scare the USSR into coming to the Kabul government's defense and into a trap.]

- Iraq: A non UN authorized 2003 American invasion and occupation of Iraq is awaiting eventual Nuremberg International Law prosecution not only for crimes against humanity, but genocide, by of way over a million and a half murdered Iraqis and the destruction of what was a prosperous nation. No official US source even attempts to justify the invasion now. Previous to this genocide by the US, was the period of severe sanctions that were credited with costing the lives of a half million young Iraqi children, which US Secretary of State Madeline Albright later, with Clockwork Orange horrific callousness, estimated as "worth the price" of keeping sanctions on Iraq.

- Somalia: US attack and funding of war lords friendly to US interests in military attack on a overwhelmingly popular Islamic Courts government, including using Ethiopian and Kenyan and UN proxy armed forces, have brought death through US NATO UN war and resultant starvation situations to a million and a half to two million Somalis and brought terrorist involvement to justify more war.

And years before all the above mentioned taking of many millions of Muslin lives, Ali, who said in 1967 that "such evils must come to an end," would have had to have known of General Westley Clark's exposing in March of 2007 of the Pentagon being informed by the Secretary of Defense of a plan to take out seven nations, Iraq, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Iran, in five years. Ali would have watched the US support its client the Shah as some twenty or more thousand Iranians were mowed down in the street. Ali would have eventually heard all about Reagan giving Saddam Hussein's Iraq 'most favorite nation status' in order to go all out to assist Saddam's eight years long bloody invasion of Revolutionary Iran at a human cost of a million Muslim lives - US spy satellites giving Saddam coordinates of Iranian positions, saving Saddam from defeat.

So what was Ali thinking and feeling about all this decades long American slaughter of millions of innocent Muslim men, women and children in their very own beloved countries, as often as not in their own homes? Your author as an archival research peoples historian encouraged by Ramsey Clark to seed a world public outcry for justice for the surviving victims of US NATO wars, wrote to Ali a few times at his published correspondence address, but received no answer. I learned that Ali's mail was understandably being handled by Ali's wife, and out of respect for Ali's illness made no further inquiries. Perhaps at some time in the future, when things within the US open up, we might learn of Ali's feelings through private papers made public.

Of major interest would be whether Ali believed that the law would eventually come down on Americans, who would then be forced to compensate and indemnify financially at the super mega vast amount that would make all investments in enslaving "those who are fighting for their own justice, freedom and equality" not only to have been unprofitable but punitive to an nth degree.

Being that the civil rights movement in America has been for such a long time now a war supporting movement in spite of the greatest civil rights leader Martin Luther King having warned in 1967 that "there will be no progress on issues of justice at home as long as we are killing the poor overseas at such an enormous expense in human and financial resources as to make such progress at home impossible," perhaps Ali's most telling quote for our time might be,
