Siebra you are absolutely wrong about our permanent solution!

Harry.

Elijah Muhammad owned 47 Muhammad Universities, and over 60 mosques (they were called temples at that time). Elijah Muhammad owned farmland in 3 (yes, I said THREE) states. He had over 1000 heads of cattle, 1000 heads of sheep, vegetable gardens, fruit trees, a fleet of trucks, a fleet of airplanes. He owned his own aviation department at the airport.

He also owned a diner, a bakery, a fish factory, a sewing factory, an auto repair shop, a laundromat and dry cleaners, a doctor's office, a dental office, he purchased the facility for a medical center that held over 600 rooms with beds. The purchase of the hospital was announced in the Muhammad Speaks Newspaper, but a couple of weeks after the newspaper made the announcement Elijah Muhammad was hospitalized, and he passed away months later.

Elijah Muhammad also owned the controlling shares of the National Guaranty Bank and Trust. Muhammad Ali kept all of the money from The Rumble in the Jungle, The Thrilla in Manilla, and his other big fights in that bank. During the early 1970's, The Nation Of Islam was worth 80 million dollars. The National Guaranty Bank was worth much more than that alone!

I don't know if you know anything about banking, but in order to own or operate a bank, the Federal Reserve dictates that you keep at least a 50 million dollar reserve, plus 20 million in gold bars by the time the bank closes. If you don't have enough by the time the bank closes, you better hope like hell a neighboring bank will let you hold that amount, and it was not that much different in 1975.

I know you ain't gonna believe that Elijah Muhammad was worth more that 80 million, but Elijah Muhammad had more than his family, his followers, and those outside the Nation Of Islam knew about. He was always discreet about the money. Elijah Muhammad was a whole lot smarter than what you and other NOI detractors and yo-yos on this site give him credit for and brought more to the table in his 40 years of NOI leadership than what the average black person could or can.

What do you bring to the table Harry? Nothing but face and ass...

Ms. Siebra,

You are not addressing my claim that Elijah Muhammad was a failure. Instead, you are telling what Elijah owned through his followers donation.

I am not denying that Elijah and the NOI did not own these things! What I am saying is that Elijah Muhammad was a failure.

Elijah Muhammad led all Black Americans to believe that he was a Moses figure and would lead Black Americans out of White America and into our own country and sovereignty and it did not happen and therefore Elijah was a failure.

The hell with what Elijah owned be it farmlands, banks or bakeries. Elijah Muhammad was a failure since Black Americans are still in the same situation when he announced that he was a messenger.

Black Americans are still religiously divided between Christianity and Islam and that is because neither Christianity nor Islam is our religion.

The man we must follow must have the Spirit and backing of God in him that his success to free us from the grip of White America is guaranteed

Black Americans must have a genuine prophet who can lead Black Americans into a country/territory of our own and to teach us our word of God and that God’s word to the Arabian people.

You do not think analytically and reason rationally. I am the only one so far who thinks analytically and reason rationally and that is why I am our first genuine prophet.

You must come out of the Arabian Islamic religion and embrace your own religion; LIFE.

Address my claim that Elijah was a failure by show me we are a free and sovereign people in a country of our own as I will do, which is the same as what Moses did.
