As reported by Mark McCullum of the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation), a speaker at an Islamic conference in the Spanish city of Granada has called upon Muslims around the world to help bring about the end of the capitalist system. This call came at a conference titled "Islam in Europe" attended by a reported 2000 Muslims.

The key speaker, Umar Ibrahim Vadillo of the organization Murabitum, said America's economic interests had become the religion of the world and that people slavishly adjusted their lifestyles to suit the capitalistic model.

Actually he is not that far off the mark as the IMF and World Bank acting as if they were dollar salesmen from Washington have sold to the advanced as well as developing world an unofficial dollar standard for currency reserves that now has backfired badly. It seems that the developing nations consume all the ideas of the west that were among the worst of our creation. As a small example seeing Indian ladies in designer jeans riding motor scooters with their husbands driving with baseball caps on backwards look to me as if it is an obscene gesture to the memory of Shri-Shri Gandhi. The Indian society has been one of the few societies that has protected their cultural heritage against dissolving into the plastic world of the west. That is no more. India no longer exists in its major cities and now barely survives in the villages.

I have told you in no uncertain words that I believe we are right in the 3rd World War in which the dollar is targeted for destruction. Actually who needs an enemy as we have constructed our own weapon of mass destruction in the form of over the counter derivatives. In truth capitalism did not win over communism. Communism just went broke first.

I believe he makes my point when this speaker at the conference called upon all Muslims to stop using the US dollar. Do you want to go long in the US dollar for a technically rally? Not me. I will simply attempt sell the top when it occurs. If you hold dollars you hold the definitive target of Saddam Hussein and Bin Laden.

This same speaker complimented the introduction of the Malaysian Gold Dinar to the world's economies calling it the most unifying event for Muslims in the modern era.
