The Jewish Press: The Nation of Islam Discovers Scientology
http://www.jewishpress.com/blogs/th...on-of-islam-discovers-scientology/2012/10/28/

The Nation of Islam's historic role as a bridge between American blacks and Islam ended in 1975 when W. Deen Mohammed followed his father, Elijah Muhammad as leader of the Nation and immediately disavowed his father's folk religion, bringing his followers to normative Islam, the Islam of the Middle East. From then on, despite the theatrics of Louis Farrakhan, the Nation has been in a long downward trajectory. Now comes evidence, thanks to Eliza Gray writing about "Thetans and Bowties" in The New Republic, of a jaw-dropping turn by Farrakhan, 79, to Scientology; as her subtitle puts it, "America's two weirdest sects join forces."

To smooth the way for NoI's members to rise through the notoriously expensive Scientology ranks, Miscavige even cut them some financial breaks.

Comment: This fascination with Dianetics probably marks the terminal point for NoI. Normative Islam reigns supreme in America. (October 25, 2012)

Good to see!! Great nod to Tony Ortega!

I hope The Jewish Press will next be reporting on this:

This may be old news but it's new to me so I'm posting it:
