Holy Book Burning and Institutionalized Discrimination

CHRONWATCH, April 2011 By Sylvia Thompson



Again, we are inundated with talking heads berating and demonizing Pastor Terry Jones of Florida. He is the Christian pastor who is among the small number of people in this country, Christian and otherwise, who has the guts to stand up to Islam.
Again, I am nauseated at the vitriol spewed toward Pastor Jones because he shows that he has a spine. This is a comment from Rich Galen, writing for the Townhall.com blog:

“That preacher in Florida who burned a Koran is a _____ (Fill in the Blank). On that, I think we can all agree. [Wrong, we do not all agree.]

''The notion that a guy with a 30-person congregation can hold himself up as – literally – a judge, and some of his massive congregation as jury, to decide on the legitimacy of Islam as a religion would be laughable except we don’t laugh about those things anymore.” (From Townhall.com, April 5, 2011 article, “Terry Jones Is Not the Problem”)

If I ever hear similar vitriol spewed at the military for the destruction of Bibles, then I will be willing to view these Jones haters as worthy of consideration.

I don’t recall any mention from Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly, or any others in the so-called conservative contingent at Fox News, or any conservative venues, of that travesty.

This is a report from Reuters (Kabul) regarding the incident (May 5, 2009):

“Bibles in Afghan languages sent to a U.S. soldier at a base in Afghanistan were confiscated and destroyed to ensure that troops did not breach regulations which forbid proselytizing…. The U.S. military has denied its soldiers tried to convert Afghans to Christianity….

'' ‘I can now confirm that the Bibles shown on Al Jazeera’s clip were, in fact, collected by the chaplains and later destroyed.’ ” (Quote from spokeswoman Major Jennifer Willis at Bagram air base, north of Kabul)

And this from CNN.com/Asia, “Military burns unsolicited Bibles sent to Afghanistan” May 22, 2009:

“The decision was made that it was a ‘force protection’ measure to throw them away, because, if they did get out, it could be perceived by Afghans that the U.S. government or the U.S. military was trying to convert Muslims,” Wright told CNN on Tuesday.

''Troops at posts in war zones are required to burn their trash, Wright said.'' (Quote from Lt. Col. Mark Wright)

I emphasize “trash.” The Holy Bible is considered trash and the Holy Koran merits protection. The military, of course, gave an excuse for why the Bibles were destroyed and not returned to America. The primary reason that those Bibles were destroyed is that Muslims are feared and Christians are not. As an American and a Christian, this scenario makes my blood boil.

I heard a comment recently from a Muslim on a radio talk show explaining why the Koran deserves reverence and the Bible doesn’t. His words: the Koran is “holy”; the Bible is not. Interestingly, every Bible in my house is titled “Holy Bible.” Further, the Koran was “written by Allah, himself.” The Bible was “written by men.” He also offered that even Christians say the Bible was written by men.

I expect such ignorance of Christianity from a Muslim, but I bristle that I haven’t heard any counter to this ignorance in the national media from Christian leaders. The Bible was indeed written by men, but it was inspired by God. What men would have been inclined to write the story of human existence the way the Bible does? Think about it, what human would pen such a candid, condemning epic, showing mankind to be the bumbling idiots that we are? In their infinite hubris, men would be more inclined to whitewash all of mankind’s inherent flaws.

Whether or not anybody believes the Bible as I and the many unsung, silent Christians out there do is irrelevant. My point is that Muslims, thanks to the savagery of many of Islam’s adherents, have gripped the people of this nation by the proverbial balls and they are squeezing. I can hear the high, painful, effeminate wail of frightened leaders.

I will not listen to any crap coming from General Petraeus or any other military big-wig about the hateful behavior of Pastor Jones. Nor will I listen to Sean Hannity or other so-called Christian conservatives until I hear an equal outcry about the despicable behavior of the military’s destruction of Holy Bibles and deeming them “trash.”

Wake up Christians! Wake up Americans!

Vital History lessons: The Nazi connection to Islam and the Holocaust

Friends

The Grand Mufti Haj Ameen Husseini a friend of Walid's Grandfather, was a participant in the Holocaust; so when Palestinian leaders state the the holocaust was nothing to with them, so why should they have to suffer, they are denying evidence of real collusion with Hitler and the Nazis.

Here is the documented evidence. Please share with the world who live in willful ignorance, especially the people who live in "liberal bliss."

Help save Freedom of Speech in Finland -

FOR SUPPORTING EVIDENCE SEE THE PREVIOUS POSTING


Helsinki Court of Appeal
Radanrakentajantie 5
00521 Helsinki
Honorable Helsinki Court of Appeal!
In his blog (3.6.2008) Jussi Halla-aho, a member of the Helsinki city council, criticized the
incoherent interpretation of the law concerning defamation of religion. He also criticized the actions
of the state prosecutor, Mika Illmann, who specializes in the legislation of freedom of speech. Jussi
Halla-aho said: “The Prophet Muhammad was a pedophile and Islam sanctifies pedophilia as a
religion. Islam is a religion of pedophilia. Pedophilia is Allah’s will.” Halla-aho was subsequently
charged with defamation of religion. The judge of the Helsinki district court, Jussi Sippola, ruled
that Halla-aho acted with the intention to blaspheme and imposed a fine on him.
Islam allows child marriages and thus child molestation
Islam’s holy texts tell how the fifty-three-year-old prophet Muhammad “consummated the marriage”
- in other words, had sexual intercourse - with his bride Aisha when she was nine years old and still
played with dolls (Bukhari 7:62;88, Bukhari 7:62:64, Bukhari 7:62:65, Muslim 8:3310).1 The
researcher of Islam, Jaakko Hämeen-Anttila, writes in his handbook of Islam (Islamin käsikirja,
Otava, 2004, p.37, which received a meritorious award by the Finnish state): “The prophet had
never in his life acted solely according to the prevailing situation but at the same time he had
looked out for the future. The details of the prophet’s life were meant to be eternally imitated by the
Islamic community.” In addition Hämeen-Anttila emphasizes that the prophet Muhammad was
“insured against faults (ma sum), so in his behavior he did nothing wrong, nor ́ anything that would
not have been God’s (Allah’s) intention.” (Islam – taskusanakirja, Basam Books, 2001, p.28). Allah
proclaims in the Quran: “Certainly you have in the Messenger of Allah an excellent example”
(33:21).
According to present-day standards Muhammad was a pedophile in the neutral and medical sense
of the word (see Duodecim: http://www.terveyskirjasto.fi/). The tradition of Muhammad’s exemplary
way of living, also known as sunna, serves as one of the central sources for Islamic law; sharia.
Hämeen-Anttila (2001, p.26) states: “Because the sharia is a religious, holy law, it can not be
changed by people’s decision.” Furthermore, Hämeen-Anttila (2001, p.28) stresses: “The Sunna is
a conclusive example to the Muslims, and it is the responsibility of every devout Muslim to obey the
example of Muhammad”. Islamic law does not legislate a minimum age for matrimony. Hence it is
obvious that Islam truly sanctifies child molestation, so far as it happens inside matrimony or in its
shadow. According to the written pleading of the Helsinki district court, this should not be
concluded, because within religions “truth is relative” and “due to this, logic or rational reasoning do
not have true sense in discussion about religious matters.” If the district court’s pronounced
sentence on Halla-aho is to be the final judgment, it implies that criticizing Islam is illegal, even
when it is based on obvious facts which Muslims themselves hold to be true.
Because the prophet Muhammad’s exemplary
way of living “was meant to be eternally imitated
by the Islamic community”, the molestation of
baby girls sanctified by Allah is in many Muslim
countries nowadays a common phenomenon and
an institution that human and women’s rights
activists such as Ghada Jamshir have criticized in
the Arab media (http://www.youtube.com/watch?
v=2t3vfDhPTlk, 1:54-2:45, Al-Arabiya TV, Dubai/
Saudi-Arabia, 21.12.2005).

1 The information about the sunnas originates from the so-called hadith, which function as one of the sources of law of the sharia.
The essential collections of hadith is found here: http://www.usc.edu/schools/college/crcc/engagement/resources/texts/muslim/

LONG LIVE THE QURAN! After reading this you will be able to answer the following questions

1. ISLAM, QURAN, HADITHS AND SUNNA
Islam is a religious, political and judicial system initiated in the VIIth century by
Muhammad, who claims to be the last prophet, and therefore THE prophet to whom
Allah transmitted his precepts through the angel Gabriel. These precepts are compiled
in the Quran. The Quran, fixed, unchangeable, that cannot be interpreted, comprises
of 114 chapters called suras, and each sura is composed of phrases called verses. The
suras and verses have been numbered in a standard way since 1923. For instance, [4:34] means verse 34 in sura 4. It should be noted that Muhammad heard the words of the angel Gabriel during mystical episodes! “Witnesses say that he (Muhammad) had seizures during which he drooled and roared like a young camel” (Mizanu’l Haqq, p. 345 can be checked at http://answeringIslam.org/Books/Pfander/Balance/p344.htm). In addition to their
holy book, muslims also hold Muhammad as an example, drawing inspiration from
his words and deeds, recounted between the VIIIth and Xth centuries by the traditionists including Bukhari, Muslim, Daoud and others, in the hadiths (the sayings), which compose the Sunna (tradition). Our purpose is to prove, based on the hadiths and a Quran widely accepted by English-speaking-muslims, the Abdullah Yusuf Ali's quran,that islam was violent from its origin, that it is inegalitarian and discriminatory towards women, non muslims, homosexuals, etc., and that in fact, islam rejects and fights everything outside itself. In fact, when we look for a “reference” Quran, we are always offered a trio : Abdullah Yusuf Ali, Marmaduke Mohammad Pickthall, a British convert, and M. H. Shakir. But there is a controversy about Shakir, so we will only consider the two others you can read on this site http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/. Clicking a verse displays all three translations simultaneously. It’s an ideology that exploits religion with the aim to subdue all the world’s non-muslims, either through persuasion or by the sword. Indeed, in Arabic, islam means submission, and muslim means submissive. Obviously, muslims don’t share this analysis, hence this document that aims to counter them using their own Quran, thus demonstrating that islam is incompatible with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (article 3 : right to life, article 4 :
prohibition of slavery, article 18 : right to change one's religion. To verify these allegations go to http://www.lexilogos.com/declaration/index.htm), which forms part of the constitutions of occidental countries.

2. TACTICS AND DIALECTICS (GENERALOVERVIEW) AGAINST ISLAM
a) A fundamental point. Never be baffled if a muslim lies, actively or by omission,
or conceals or falsifies, because this is prescribed by the Quran. Anything goes when
the goal is to spread islam. Taqya (dissimulation) is a duty for believers in an inferiority (= minority) situation. By contrast, as soon as the balance of power has shifted, the muslim can consider aggression :
[Quran 47:35 ] Be not weary and faint-hearted, crying for peace, when ye should be
uppermost: for Allah is with you, and will never put you in loss for your (good)
deeds.
b) When confronting a muslim who suggests that islam is a religion of tolerance,
peace and love, by quoting a few violent, misogynist, anti-christian or anti-jewish
suras, when he runs out of arguments he will eventually say that “in order to understand the Quran, one has to read it in Arabic”. The answer is simple: if that was the case, then an English-speaking convert, unless he read Arabic, which has to be extremely rare, would be a person who converts to a religion while being unable to grasp a single word from its holy book! This is not tenable, therefore the muslim has to implicitly admit that some translations into English that are acceptable to a
Mahometan do exist, if only the one from Abdullah Yusuf Ali, which can be checked
at http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran. All that is left then is to contradict him using the suras from “his” Quran.
c) It is also necessary to refute the recurring argument, used by muslims who, in
many cases, have not read the Quran, as well as by English ignoramuses who don’t
know anything about islamology, that islam is a religion like any other, and that muslims therefore have the same rights as the followers of other religions. This assertion must be countered by stating that the Quran features numerous verses that incite murder (see paragraph 4 for examples), or by reading the hadiths where the messenger of Allah, Muhammad himself, instigates numerous murders. Islam cannot, therefore,be considered as being like any other religion.
d) With regards to the long list of quranic verses that clearly call for the murder of unbelievers, muslims always claim that they were only reacting, defending themselves against attacks from “nasty” polytheists. One can already recognize, back in those times, the muslims’ “victim posturing”. So we should believe that the
arab/muslim people conquered immense territories, in the name of Allah, only by
defending themselves, because other peoples were attacking them. It’s enough to
read the letters the warlord Muhammad sent to various leaders or kings, to “invite”
them to embrace islam, to become convinced of his arrogance and aggressivity: to
the Arab tribal leaders, the kings of Byzantium, of Persia, of Abyssinia, etc. Here is the “invitation” letter to the people of Oman: “Peace be upon him who follows the
straight path! I call you to islam. Accept my call, and you will be safe. I am the
messenger from Allah sent to humanity, and the annoucement will be made to the
unbelievers. If, then, you identify with islam, I shall grant power upon you. But if
you refuse to accept islam, your power shall disappear, my horses will camp out on
the extent of your territory and we shall reign in your kingdom. Signed:
“Muhammad, messenger of Allah”.
e) It should also be noted that while 2 verses may contradict each other, Allah, all
knowing and infallible as he is, has planned for everything. For such cases, he has
developed the doctrine of abrogator verses (nasikh) and abrogated verses (mansukh),
which states that the most recent verse cancels the oldest one, and therefore that a
Medina, or post-Hegira verse, can, in case of a contradiction, cancel a Mecca or pre-
Hegira verse. The Hegira is the period when Muhammad was chased from Mecca
and took refuge in Medina. To demonstrate the aforementioned, one can quote the
two verses:
[Quran 2:106] None of Our revelations do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, but
We substitute something better or similar: Knowest thou not that AllahHath power
over all things?
[Quran 16:101] When We substitute one revelation for another,- and Allah knows best what He reveals (in stages),- they say, "Thou art but a forger": but most of them understand not.
To know if a verse is pre-Hegira or post-Hegira go to http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran.
Every sura is indicated as revealed at Mecca or Medina.
Therefore, do not be baffled when a follower of Allah quotes a tolerant verse,
because it is probably abrogated and rendered obsolete by a Medina verse.
Otherwise you could always counter it with numerous violent verses. If islam was
peaceful there would not be a single violent verse un the Quran… yet it contains
dozens of instances of words such as “kill”, “fight” or “slay”.
f) When the apologists of islam struggle to conceal the warlike and intolerant nature
of the Quran, they often try to “dilute” reality, pretending that islam is open to numerous “interpretations”. The violence of islamic societies and muslim terrorists would stem from a “mistaken interpretation”. By saying this, they conceal the fact that the Quran itself, (seconded by some hadiths), condemns interpretation (it should be noted that many Western politicians also take part in this pathetic farce).
[Quran 3 :7] He it is Who has sent down to thee the Book: In it are verses basic or
fundamental (of established meaning); they are the foundation of the Book: others
are allegorical. But those in whose hearts is perversity follow the part thereof that is allegorical, seeking discord, and searching for its hidden meanings, but no one knows its hidden meanings except Allah. And those who are firmly grounded in
knowledge say: "We believe in the Book; the whole of it is from our Lord:" and none
will grasp the Message except men of understanding.

3. CHOOSING A QURAN
We have already highlighted the benefit, to us, of choosing an English language Quran
approved by muslims themselves. It is, therefore, the Abdullah Yusuf Ali 's Quran, to the exclusion of any other, that will serve as a reference from here on. Important notice about the Quran: the Quran (“recitation” in Arabic) is not so much a text as it is the Arabic recitation of that text. For non Arabic-speakers, it is therefore a long succession of sounds, learned by rote in “quranic schools” (madrassa, where muslims are taught to hate the West). It therefore is a genuine example of brainwashing, that a muslim is often subjected to from as young as the age of 4!

4. ANGLES OF ATTACK AGAINST ISLAM
In the following text, when the words “the” (plural) or “they” are not qualified they
are used to designate all those who are not submissive to Allah: Jews, Christians,
heretics, infidels, associators, polytheists and unbelievers.
a) Calls for murder in the Quran
[Quran 2:191] And slay them wherever ye catch them, and turn them out from
where they have Turned you out; for tumult and oppression are slaughter; but fight
them not at the Sacred Mosque, unless they (first) fight you there; but if they fight
you, slay them. Such is the reward of those who suppress faith.
[Quran 4:89] They but wish that ye should reject Faith, as they do, and thus be on
the same footing (as they): But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in
the way of Allah (From what is forbidden). But if they turn renegades, seize them
and slay them wherever ye find them; and (in any case) take no friends or helpers
from their ranks.
[Quran 5:33] The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His
Messenger, and strive with might and main for mischief through the land is: execution,
or crucifixion, or the cutting off of hands and feet from opposite sides,
or exile from the land : that is their disgrace in this world, and a heavy punishment
is theirs in the Hereafter.
[Quran 8:12] Remember thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message): "I am
with you: give firmness to the Believers: I will instil terror into the hearts of the
Unbelievers. Smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them.
[Quran 8:17] It is not ye who slew them; it was Allah: when thou threwest (a
handful of dust), it was not thy act, but Allah's: in order that He might test the
Believers by a gracious trial from Himself: for Allah is He Who heareth and knoweth
(all things). In other words it's a pre-emptive absolution for a murderer of an
infidel in the name of Allah.
[Quran 9:5] But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the
Pagans wherever ye find them, an seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for
them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers
and practise regular charity, then open the way for them: for Allah is Oft-forgiving,
Most Merciful.
[Quran 17:33] Nor take life - which Allah has made sacred - except for just cause.
And if anyone is slain wrongfully, we have given his heir authority (to demand
qisas or to forgive): but let him not exceed bounds in the matter of taking life; for
he is helped (by the Law). Therefore, according to the Quran, there are perfectly
valid, legally sound reasons to kill.
[Quran 33:61] They shall have a curse on them: whenever they are found, they
shall be seized and slain (without mercy).
[Quran 47:4] Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers (in fight), smite at their
necks; At length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly (on
them): thereafter (is the time for) either generosity or ransom: Until the war lays
down its burdens. Thus (are ye commanded): but if it had been Allah's Will, He
could certainly have exacted retribution from them (Himself); but (He lets you
fight) in order to test you, some with others. But those who are slain in the Way of
Allah,- He will never let their deeds be lost.
b) Hate against the Jews, Christians and Infidels
[Quran 5:51] O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for your
friends and protectors :They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he
amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them. Verily Allah guideth not
a people unjust.
[Quran 9:30] The Jews call 'Uzair a son of Allah, and the Christians call Christ the
son of Allah. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the
unbelievers of old used to say. Allah's curse be on them : how they are deluded
away from the Truth!
[Quran 5:14] From those, too, who call themselves Christians, We did take a covenant,
but they forgot a good part of the message that was sent them: so we estranged
them, with enmity and hatred between the one and the other, to the day of
judgment. And soon will Allah show them what it is they have done.
Among the hadiths, one can easily find a collection of anti-jewish and anti-christian
statements, sometimes extremely violent, such as :
The Prophet said, "A group of Israelites were lost. Nobody knows what they did.
But I do not see them except that they were cursed and changed into rats"
(Narrated Abu Huraira, Muslim XLII 7135 et Bukhari LIV 524).
c) Three fundamental inequalities in islam
The muslim is superior to the non-muslim
[Quran 3:110] Ye are the best of peoples, evolved for mankind, enjoining what is
right, forbidding what is wrong, and believing in Allah. If only the People of the
Book had faith, it were best for them: among them are some who have faith, but
most of them are perverted transgressors.
Men are superior to women
[Quran 4:34] Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah
has given the one more (strength) than the other, and because they support them
from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient, and
guard in (the husband's) absence what Allah would have them guard. As to those
women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them (first),
(Next), refuse to share their beds, (And last) beat them (lightly); but if they return
to obedience, seek not against them Means (of annoyance): For Allah is Most
High, great (above you all). In the [Quran 4:34] there is no arabic word for
"lightly" it's a personal add from the author Yusuf Ali and an example of taqya.
The master is superior to the slave
Islam has not yet abolished slavery, which is still practised in Saudi Arabia and Sudan, where the black slave trade is still current, as per the heart wrenching testimony of a black christian Sudanese man, Simon Deng, reduced to slavery by the Arabic islamist regime in Khartoum : (http://www.iheu.org/node/1539). If islam has not abolished slavery (can it?), it’s quite simply because its goal is to establish a world califate where non-muslims would have to choose between conversion, death or, at best,dhimmitude (http://www.dhimmitude.org/archive/by_lecture_10oct2002.htm).
d) Death penalty for whoever leaves islam Ali burnt some people and this news reached Ibn 'Abbas, who said, "Had I been in his place I would not have burnt them, as the Prophet said, 'Don't punish (anybody) with Allah's Punishment.' No doubt, I would have killed them, for the Prophet said, 'If somebody
(a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him.' (Narrated Ikrima, Bukhari LII 260).
Do you know many religions that call for the death of whoever wants to leave them?

5. MUHAMMAD, THE « BEAUTIFUL MODEL »We cannot conclude without mentioning this odd “prophet” for an odd “religion”. A few personality traits of the man every good muslim is supposed to emulate, found in the hadiths or Quran
Muhammad was a torturer When the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) cut off (the hands and feet of)those who had stolen his camels and he had their eyes put out by fire (heated nails),Allah reprimanded him on that (action), and Allah, the Exalted, revealed: "The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His Apostle and strive with might and main for mischief through the land is execution or crucifixion. (Narrated Abu Zinad, Dawud XXXVIII 4357).
Muhammad was a murderer Jabir b. 'Abdullah reported that Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) stoned (to death) a
person from Banu Aslam, and a Jew and his wife.(Narrated Jabir Abdullah, Muslim XVII 4216).
Muhammad was a pedophile
Khadija died three years before the Prophet departed to Medina. He stayed there for
two years or so and then he married 'Aisha when she was a girl of six years of age,
and he consummated that marriage when she was nine years old. (Narrated
Hisham's father, Bukhari LVIII 236).
Muhammad was a looter
Whenever Allah's Apostle intended to lead a Ghazwa, he would use an equivocation
from which one would understand that he was going to a different destination.
(Narrated Ka’b ibn Malik, Bukhari LII 197). In arabic "ghazwa" means looting :
[Quran 8:1] They ask thee concerning (things taken as) spoils of war. Say: "(such)
spoils are at the disposal of Allah and the Messenger: So fear Allah, and keep straight the relations between yourselves: Obey Allah and His Messenger, if ye do believe." Thus has islam been for fourteen centuries! It’s an ideology that exploits a religion and aims to submit humanity in the same way as naziism or communism did. Islam was violent from its origin, it is inegalitarian and discriminatory towards women, non muslims, homosexuals, etc., and in fact, islam rejects and fights everything outside itself. Islam is therefore incompatible with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (article
3 : right to life, article 4 : prohibition of slavery, article 18 : right to change one's religion.
To verify these allegations go to http://www.lexilogos.com/declaration/index.htm),
which forms part of the constitutions of occidental countries. Hadiths (in English)
can be found at: http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/reference/searchhadith.html, the

I'm tired of being told that Islam is a "Religion of Peace."

"I’m tired of being told that Islam is a “Religion of Peace,” when every day I can read dozens of stories of Muslim men killing their sisters, wives and daughters for their family “honor;” of Muslims rioting over some slight offense; of Muslims murdering Christian and Jews because they aren’t “believers;” of Muslims burning schools for girls; of Muslims stoning teenage rape victims to death for “adultery;” of Muslims mutilating the genitals of little girls; all in the name of Allah, because the Qur’an and Shari’a law tells them to."


Robert A Hall

Islamic groups attack law enforcement

The article below reports that a brother-in-law of Osama bin Laden’s bodyguard was arrested on terrorist-related charges after being fingered by an informant.

How the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood (The Muslim Public Affairs Council, MPAC) and CAIR (the Council on American-Islamic Relations) reacted is a perfect illustration of “properly understanding the times,”

Did the MPAC and CAIR denounce the alleged activities of the man who was arrested?

Of course not.

Following their predictably worn-out script, these two organizations attacked the FBI and law enforcement authorities for “violating the trust” of Muslims by working with an informant who infiltrated a mosque. Here’s one sentence from MPAC’s response:

“Federal law enforcement cannot establish trust with American Muslim communities through meetings and townhall forums, while at the same time sending paid informants who instigate violent rhetoric in mosques.”Notice the insinuation, that the man arrested was “instigated” by a paid federal informant. The man arrested isn’t responsible — the “devil made him do it!” This is the same kind of response organizations like MPAC and CAIR make whenever a Muslim is arrested or suspected of terrorist-related activities.

They attack law enforcement, or politicians, or groups and people they call “Islamophobic.”

They play the “offended victim” card, complaining that the latest action violates “trust” between Muslims and law enforcement.

This is the same script Islamic militants and leaders have followed for years in Europe and Great Britain.

Here’s what violates trust — Islamic organizations and spokespeople who refuse to acknowledge that there a lot of people in their community of faith who want to hurt America, kill Americans, and impose shariah law on America. Here’s what violates trust — Islamic organizations and spokespeople who claim perpetual victim status for Islamic radicals, and who claim that Americans are the aggressors, when in fact it is the radicals who are the aggressors and Americans are the victims.

We don’t see FBI informants and undercover criminal investigations inside churches and synagogues, and there’s an obvious reason why.

If MPAC and CAIR are genuinely and sincerely concerned about “trust,” they would do well to stop attacking Americans and law enforcement and start denouncing the real violators of our trust – the radical Muslims in our midst who intend us harm.

But don’t hold your breath waiting for that to happen. And that gives us an advantage – because we can predict with a high degree of accuracy what the Islamists will do next. Their “script” isn’t hard to read.

We just have to expose them and refuse to play the role they’re trying to foist on us.

Tuesday, 3 March 2009 U.S. Muslim Brotherhood Reacts to California Mosque Infiltration http://www.newenglishreview.org/blog_display.cfm/blog_id/19815 From the Global Muslim Brotherhood Daily Report: The U.S. Muslim Brotherhood is reacting to the arrest of a brother-in-law of Osama bin Laden’s bodyguard on charges of lying about his ties to terrorist groups on his citizenship and passport applications. An AP report describes the case as follows: In the California case, information about the informant who spied on the Islamic Center of Irvine came out last week at a detention hearing for a brother-in-law of Osama bin Laden’s bodyguard, an Afghan native and naturalized U.S. citizen named Ahmadullah Niazi. Niazi, 34, was arrested Feb. 20 on charges of lying about his ties to terrorist groups on his citizenship and passport applications. He will be arraigned Monday in U.S. District Court in Santa Ana. FBI Special Agent Thomas J. Ropel III testified at the hearing that an FBI informant infiltrated Niazi’s mosque and several others in Orange County and befriended Niazi. Ropel said the informant recorded Niazi on multiple occasions talking about blowing up buildings, acquiring weapons and sending money to the Afghan mujahadeen. Niazi has not been charged with terrorism and it’s not yet clear if the FBI was focused on anything beyond his activities. Neither the mosque nor any other of its members have been charged. A 46-year-old fitness instructor told The Associated Press last week he was the informant. Craig Monteilh of Irvine said Niazi talked about blowing up buildings and discussed sending Monteilh to a terrorist training camp in Yemen or Pakistan. Monteilh said his tenure as an informant ended after Niazi and other members of the Islamic Center of Irvine reported him to authorities. A Muslim advocacy group has demanded a federal investigation into whether Niazi was arrested because he refused to become an FBI informant after telling the agency about Monteilh. The Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) has reacted by stating that the use of informants in mosques “stigmatizes” the mosques and erodes trust. According an article on the MPAC website:
Trust is the cornerstone of any partnership between law enforcement and communities. It can only be established and maintained through clear and open communication. Without this, trust is eroded and suspicions arise on all sides. This clearly does not serve anyone’s interests.Federal law enforcement cannot establish trust with American Muslim communities through meetings and townhall forums, while at the same time sending paid informants who instigate violent rhetoric in mosques. This mere act stigmatizes American mosques and casts a shadow of doubt and distrust between American Muslims and their neighbors. It has also led many mosques and community groups to reconsider their relationship with the FBI, including most recently the Islamic Shura Council of Southern California. It is now up to the FBI and law enforcement agencies to re-engage with the Muslim American community, and re-build trust and respect. MPAC will continue to raise these community concerns with federal law enforcement officials in its efforts to help form policies that preserve civil liberties while also protecting our nation.The Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) announced that is planning to file a request for the U.S. Attorney General to launch an investigation into the FBI’s arrest: On Tuesday, February 24, the Greater Los Angeles Area chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-LA) will host a news conference to announce the filing of a request for the U.S. Attorney General to launch an investigation into the FBI’s arrest last week of Ahmad Niazi. The news conference will immediately follow a court hearing Tuesday for Niazi in Santa Ana, Calif. Members of his family will take part in the news conference. Mr. Niazi is charged with perjury, naturalization fraud, misuse of a passport obtained by fraud, and making a false statement to a federal agency. He claims the charges are in retaliation for his refusal to become an FBI informant. Mr. Niazi previously reported to CAIR-LA and other community members that, during a raid of a friend’s house, an FBI agent urged Mr. Niazi to work with the agency, saying that if he refused to cooperate his life would be made a “living hell.” MPAC was established in the mid 1980’s by individuals whose backgrounds are likely rooted in the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood and since its inception has acted in concert with the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood. The organization, like other U.S. Brotherhood organizations, has a long history of fundamentalism, anti-Semitism, and support for terrorism. The organization has long enjoyed generally good relations with the U.S. government and functions essentially as the political lobbying arm of the U.S. Brotherhood. Documents released in the Holy Land Trial have revealed that the founders and current leaders of CAIR were part of the Palestine Committee of the Muslim Brotherhood as well as identifying the organization itself as being part of the U.S. Brotherhood. Investigative research posted on GMBDR had determined that CAIR had it origins in the U.S. Hamas infrastructure and is an integral part of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood with a long history of support for fundamentalism, anti-Semitism, and terrorism. Numerous earlier posts have reported on the relationship between the FBI and CAIR which appears to have been terminated by the FBI. Both organizations have long histories of opposing almost all elements of U.S. counterterrorism strategy. CAIR in particular has defended numerous individuals accused and/or convicted of terrorism offenses and a number of CAIR employees have also been convicted of terrorism.

Properly Understanding the Times

Properly Understanding the Times by Guy Rodgers

Dear Friends ,
As a student of the colonial period and the Founding Fathers, one of the traits I learned that was common to most of them, and reflected in their writings, was their ability to recognize the long-term ramifications of even seemingly innocuous actions. In other words, they were able to "read" beyond the concrete actions, such as actions taken by Great Britain, determine the driving force behind the actions, and extrapolate into the future what would happen if those actions were not addressed and, if necessary, confronted.

They could do so because they were astute students of history and human nature. They understood that people act consistently with what they believe, and thus, if you understand what someone believes, you can reasonably predict what they will do over time in different situations.

Looking backward, you can also analyze human action in history, and from that extrapolate forward to predict what will occur in the future based on that analysis. George Santayana penned a famous phrase that captures this understanding: "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." It is in this vein that we will truly "understand the times" with respect to the growing worldwide spread of radical Islam. The news story below reports the challenges several public school districts are facing in order to accommodate Muslim prayer demands in their schools.

It's not just that they want to pray in school. Anyone has the right to do that. They want private places set aside for them to pray. Are these "seemingly innocuous" cases of Muslims asking for the right to practice their faith? Or a glimpse of greater demands to come? Read the article, then click here to view a short video that shows how Islam spreads from the "seemingly innocuous" actions to the eventual intimidation, terrorizing and ultimate domination of societies. And as you view the video, remind yourself of Santayana's words.

Muslim boy looking for a place to pray Thursday, February 19, 2009 BY ANDREA ALEXANDER http://www.northjersey.com/education/educationnews/39830597.html?c=y&page=1 WAYNE -- Rola Awwad wants a private space for her 10-year-old son at Albert Payson Terhune Elementary School to exercise his right to Muslim prayer.

CARMINE GALASSO / STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER Adam Awwad, 10, praying at the Circassian Benevolent Association in Wayne after being driven there from school by his mother. The school district had offered to let him pray at recess -- either outside or in a classroom while classmates are there. And that, says Awwad, is "unacceptable." All students are constitutionally guaranteed the right to pray during the school day as long as it doesn't interfere with learning. But Wayne is struggling with what accommodations to make if a Muslim student requests privacy for prayer. The answer in other North Jersey districts ranges from providing access to the principal's office, to providing a spare room. But school administrators in suburban Wayne have been weighing the question since fall, when Awwad asked the principal to allow her son, Adam, a few minutes of privacy each afternoon to pray. The district says it's concerned about allowing a young pupil to be unsupervised, even for a short time, and Awwad said her request was met with resistance. "Why can't he be on his own for five minutes praying?" said Awwad, a Palestinian who moved to the United States from Jordan 11 years ago. She said it's important to her that her children go to public school and make diverse friends. But she also wants them to be able to practice their religion. "All I want from the school is to let my son pray in a private place in a small room, say his prayer and go back to class," she said. Muslims pray five times a day to reaffirm their faith and submit to follow divine commandments. The prayer is said during prescribed times; in the fall, when the clocks roll back at the end of daylight savings time, the afternoon prayer must be said during the school day, Awwad explained. Federal guidelines say schools can't prevent students from praying during school hours, but schools can't sponsor religious activities or lead students in prayer. But the guidelines don't provide specifics on how schools should handle requests like Awwad's. And because that's left to the discretion of school administrators, North Jersey districts have responded with a hodgepodge of approaches. In Passaic, an elementary school student is allowed to pray privately in a classroom storage closet, Superintendent Robert Holster said. A middle school principal in Cliffside Park allows a student to pray in her office, Superintendent Michael Romagnino said. If an elementary school child wanted a private place to pray, the superintendent said he would ask the principal to make an accommodation in an available office. And Teaneck High School sets aside a room where Muslim students are allowed to go and say their prayers, said district spokesman Dave Bicofsky. Wayne's district does not even have a consistent approach among its schools, The Record found in interviews with parents and the administration. Awwad said when she first made her request, she was advised to pick up Adam at lunch and take him out of school to say prayers, which she has done for the last several months. When she pressed to have him allowed to pray in the building, the district offered to let Adam pray outside during lunch, or in the classroom during recess when the weather was bad. But another elementary school principal in the district had offered to let a student pray in an office. School board Attorney John Croot said the district thought it had made an "acceptable accommodation" when it offered to let Muslim students pray outside during lunch, or inside in a classroom in days of bad weather. He said the district is trying to strike a balance between constitutional principles. For school officials, the issue is complicated by the degree of religious practice: For instance, federal guidelines specifically mention a student's right to quietly read the Bible during lunch. But the guidelines are not clear on what a district should do when the expression of religion is more demonstrative, as it is in Adam's case. "Then you are talking about a public school district," Croot said. "You have to carefully weigh the constitutional issues. It's a balance between the free exercise of religion and the concept of the separation of church and state. It's a public school district and you have to consider those constitutional issues." Croot said he sought guidance from the U.S. Department of Education and was advised the district should have a consistent approach. Awwad told the district in a letter that its latest accommodation "is unacceptable." Her son would have to put his prayer mat and touch his forehead on the damp ground if he prayed outside. And she said Adam was worried that other students would ridicule him if he prayed in the classroom. Croot said "nothing has been foreclosed yet. We are still in discussions. We have indicated one possible accommodation that would have been acceptable, but there may be other accommodations that we could reach."

Islam and Women - beheading your wife instead of divorce

The Political system that dhimmis and Muslims call the Religion of Peace, but in reality is a system of hypocrisy, Lies, murder and barbarism especially toward women.

We all remember the televised beheading of Daniel Pearl, and many similar atrocities emanting from the islamic world. Is there a special reason? Jerry from the NY & LI Chapter sends us this report. (THANKS!) -- Allan



Decapitation and the Muslim World
Is there any special significance to beheading in Islam?
By Nina Shen Rastogi

http://www.slate.com/id/2211593/?from=rss
Friday, Feb. 20, 2009



A Muslim man was accused of beheading his wife last week in Buffalo, N.Y. In recent years, Islamic terrorist groups have made a common practice of decapitating their political and religious enemies and broadcasting the acts in gory videos. Is there any significance to beheading in Islam?

Yes, but it's important in other cultures, too. As Lee Smith noted in a 2004 Slate piece, two verses in the Quran refer to decapitation—both in the context of religious war. Sura 47, verse 4 reads: "Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers (in fight), smite at their necks." However, this line has generally been interpreted by Islamic scholars to mean that when facing infidels on the battlefield, one must strike with a deadly force. (The verse goes on to say that once you have fully subdued your enemy, survivors should be shown "generosity and ransom.") The same is true in sura 8, verse 12, in which it's recalled that the Lord said to the angels at the Battle of Badr, "I am with you: give firmness to the Believers: I will instil [misspelling is in original] terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them." Both verses are traditionally understood as inspirations to ferocity and not literal calls for beheading.
Islamic history does have its share of prominent beheadings, however. Muhammad's earliest biographer, Ibn-Ishaq, describes how the prophet approved the beheadings of between 600 and 900 men from the Jewish Quyraza tribe following the Battle of the Trench. Decapitation of a dead enemy on the battlefield was the "primary form of symbolic aggression among Ottoman soldiers," according to this history of the Ottoman Empire. However, Christian Crusaders were known to do likewise—Fulcher of Chartres chronicles how, in 1099, 10,000 Jews and Arabs were beheaded in the Temple of Solomon during the capture of Jerusalem.
Outside the context of warfare, beheadings are accepted as a criminal sanction in parts of the modern Islamic world. Under Sharia law, there are no crimes that specifically call for decapitation, but it is one of a range of execution methods that may be employed, along with stoning or hanging. Saudi Arabia is the only nation that continues to make regular and official use of decapitation, though as of 2004, Yemen, Iran, and Qatar had laws on their books that explicitly allow it.
Among Western countries, court-sanctioned beheadings continued well into the 20th century: Murderer Johann Alfred Ander was Sweden's last decapitation in 1910; the last German to be beheaded was Berthold Wehmeyer in 1949; and the last guillotining in France took place in 1977—though death by the "national razor" remained on the books until 1981, when France abolished the death penalty.
There's at least one mention of a righteous beheading in the Bible—according to the Old Testament, David killed Goliath with a stone and then ran to the giant, drew his sword from his sheath, "and slew him, and cut off his head therewith," before carrying the trophy to Jerusalem. And in the deuterocanonical book of Judith, the beautiful Hebrew widow seduces the Babylonian tyrant Holofernes and then, after getting him drunk, cuts off his head. For the act she is "made great," becoming "the most renowned in all the land of Israel" (16:25).

Hate on the Home Front

Hate on the Home Front, By Orit T. Sklar, FrontPageMagazine.com, Jan 2009

No one shouted "Go Back to the Oven" at the pro-Hamas rallies held in Atlanta in the last few days, but the sentiment was echoed in the messages their organizers promoted. Islamic fundamentalists spouted their hatred at the gatherings far-Left activists called to protest Israel's self-defense. The unholy alliance met at the CNN Center January 3rd and at the Israeli consulate the previous Tuesday, where CAIR members and Communists blocked traffic, endorsed the annihilation of Israel, dressed in terrorist garb, extolled those plotting a new Holocaust, and equated Jewish self-defense with Nazi genocide.

The tone should be no surprise considering who organized these events. The organizational force behind both was the Atlanta chapter of the International Action Center (IAC). An e-mail from the IAC indicated that Emory Advocates for Justice in Palestine, Athens for Justice in Palestine, and other "peace and justice organizations" would be involved. On site, I discovered these "peace and justice organizations" included the once-laudable Amnesty International – alongside, the International Socialist Organization and the Revolutionary Communist Party. (The RCP publication Revolution were also represented.)

The International Action Center, the main organizer behind the massive "antiwar" demonstrations before the war with Iraq, was founded by Ramsey Clark as a front for the Marxist Workers World Party. IAC is a beehive of radical causes including prosecuting American soldiers for "war crimes" during the Korean War, spreading "the truth" about North Korea, freeing cop-killers Mumia Abu Jamal and Leonard Peltier, and insisting "no one in the world…has a worse human rights record than the United States."
Revolution is the publication of the Revolutionary Communist Party, a Maoist sect founded by Bob Avakian. The RCP maintains an office in Atlanta, and this is hardly the its first collaboration with Muslim extremists; "In the summer of 1983, the organization set up terrorist training camps in Colorado, drawing people from the Iranian Student Association." The RCP remains dedicated to "the seizure of power right within the U.S. itself…as part of the world proletarian revolution." The current issue of Revolution features a front page headline screaming, "Stop the Israeli Massacre in Gaza!" (Emphasis in original.) Author Larry Everest accuses Israel of committing a "war crime" and condemns its "despicable display of Nazi-like threat" by dropping pamphlets asking Gaza civilians to evacuate the bombing area.

Emory Advocates for Justice in Palestine (EAJP) maintains a website that describes all of Israel, from 1948, as "colonization." In November, EAJP hosted a lecture by Hassan El-Najjar. In an op-ed for Al Jazeera entitled "Towards a Clear Definition of Terrorism," the professor cited a number of "terrorist" acts, including "attacks on Muslim mosques after September 11, 2001" – but not 9/11 itself. He added, "It is inaccurate to use the term [terrorism] in describing resistance to foreign invaders and foreign occupation forces, such as the case of Palestinians fighting Israeli occupation forces to liberate themselves from foreign military rule." In another, he shed more light on his view: "[The] September 11 attacks happened as a reaction to the American foreign policy in the Middle East." By the first anniversary of 9/11, he brought himself to write that killing civilians during "air attacks" – he still could not call it terrorism – was not justified, "no matter how much the perpetrator was victimized." Not alone, EAJP brought in a representative of the Palestinian Solidarity Movement two months earlier. Its "Resources" page further radicalizes its members, directing eager readers to the publications Electronic Intifada and Al Jazeera.
Athens for Justice in Palestine (AJP) has co-sponsored many of EAJP's outings, as well as a 2005 speech by Jeff Halper, an American anthropology professor who heads the "Free Gaza Movement," which attempted to deliver 3.5 tons of "medical supplies" to Hamas-controlled Gaza on December 30. The AJP website features YouTube footage of its members gathered outside the CNN center chanting, "U.S./Israel, you can't hide; we charge you with genocide!" AJP, too, links to Electronic Intifada, the Palestinian Solidarity Movement, and the radical Indymedia.org.

The International Socialist Organization, a Trotskyite organization, calls for "militant workers" to wage a perpetual revolution against the bourgeoisie. It justifies Islamic violence, whether 9/11 hijackers against the United States, or Palestinian suicide bombers, writing these innocents were "not born wanting to become suicide bombers. But their lifetimes of humiliation…made them open to terrorism as a means to avenge their oppression."

The rhetoric of these protesters was predictably egregious. The most clearly genocidal message at Saturday's soiree extolled Hitler's nearest successor: Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. One Muslim man displayed a poster with a picture of Iranian President Ahmadinejad below the message, "I heart A-JAD." Ahmadinejad, who denies the first Holocaust occurred, has called for Israel to be wiped off the map, and his drive for nuclear weapons is the most dangerous existential threat Israel faces – a threat these supporters of Hamas would love to hasten. The protester would not allow me to photograph him or the sign. However, when a man who identified himself as Iranian gave him a high-five and said he thought the sign was awesome asked to take a picture, I was able to get my own picture alongside this Ahmadinejad fan.

Even as some deny the Holocaust, they equate modern Israeli Jews with their victimizers, a staple of anti-Semites worldwide. One young boy held a sign condemning, "Israhell: The New Nazis." Several demonstrators held signs with such messages as, "Stop the U.S. Sponsored Holocaust in Gaza." A Muslim woman dressed in a chador called Operation Cast Lead "Holocast [sic.] in Gaza." Like the male protester, at first she refused to have her picture taken. She later agreed, as long as her face was covered by the sign. Was her reticence a sign of embarrassment over her extremist message, or Islamic hatred of female flesh, especially the face?

The crowd demonstrated outside CNN headquarters for more an hour before taking its protest into the street. In addition to the "genocide" chant, protesters sang such pithy slogans as:

"From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free";

"Gaza, Gaza don't you cry, in our hearts, you'll never die"; and

"Not a penny, not a dime, Israel out of Palestine"
As if to counter the ISO's thesis that Palestinians were not born with the hope of becoming terrorists, many protesters brought along their children, some dressed in Palestinian terrorist gear. Many youngsters could be seen chanting and waving signs and Palestinian flags alongside their family and friends, with protesters of all ages wearing the keffiyeh. One young boy, clad in keffiyeh, waved a Palestinian flag, while the man next to him paraded baby dolls splattered with imitation blood. (How child-friendly.) Others used their own children as examples of the civilians Israel is supposedly targeting – a claim even Palestinian television cannot support. A young girl presented herself as an Israeli target, holding a sign saying, "I am not a terrorist."

Protesters placed two coffins draped in Palestinian flags along with a white sheet wrapped around a "body" on the street in front of a huge banner reading, "Remember the Children of the Occupation." The sheet had a red target symbol over an image of a young girl in a dress releasing a balloon in the shape of a heart.

IAC, et. al., chose the CNN location in hopes of generating media coverage, and in this it succeeded; however, the radicals hope to have a far more mainstream impact. An e-mail from the Atlanta IAC encouraged everyone to "Register your outrage with elected officials and mainstream media." To reinforce this campaign, call sheets were handed out during the protest listing local and national media outlets, politicians, and the Israeli consulate.

In addition to Ahmadinejad, protesters showed love for another political figure: President-elect Barack Obama. The campaign to end "the Israeli Occupation" handed out postcards with the iconic picture of Obama and the slogan, "Yes, we can," with the added plea, "End U.S. military aid to Israel." These postcards featured a pre-typed message, alleging that U.S. money is being used to "enforce its [Israel's] illegal military occupation of and commit human rights abuses in the Palestinian West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Gaza Strip."

Divestment of Israel was a popular theme. A young man wearing an Obama t-shirt and Obama embroidered pullover held a sign that said, "Stop dropping U.S. Bombs! 71% of Americans Oppose Intervention."

They reached at least a few government workers during the protest. Some bus drivers of MARTA – Atlanta's public transportation system – honked in support of their cause, as demonstrators held up "Honk for Gaza" signs.

There was not one condemnation of Hamas in the course of the rally. However, the protesters regularly pilloried CNN. There were signs saying, "CNN – Tell the truth, bombing Gaza is a crime." Individual demonstrators screamed, "Screw you Andersen Cooper!" and "Screw you Wolf Blitzer!" (Wolf Blitzer, a Jew, wrote a book on the Jonathan Pollard spy scandal, Territory of Lies. The New York Times described his depiction of Israeli government officials as "harsh.") The irony that they were protesting the most pro-Palestinian broadcast outlet since Peter Jennings' death was lost of them.

A similar tone held sway at the December 30th rally in front of the Consulate General of Israel. Again, the protest was arranged by the Atlanta branch of the International Action Center. They had a permit from 4:00-5:30 p.m. to demonstrate in front of the Israeli consulate which is in midtown Atlanta. Car traffic was heavy the entire time, and there was a constant flow of people into the demonstration. Women were coming with their young children in strollers and older people wrapped in keffiyehs came and set up chairs.

Representatives from the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) were on hand, as were Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) at Georgia Tech and Emory Advocates for Justice in Palestine. CAIR has a lengthy history of association with terrorists, and the Georgia Tech branch of SJP directs its readers to Electronic Intifada, the Palestinian Solidarity Movement, and recommends books written by Edward Said and Rashid Khalidi. At 5:30 p.m. on December 20, police announced the mob must leave the premises, so its members marched into the street – walking against the flow of traffic – shutting down the street entirely, and establishing themselves about a quarter-mile away.

It is important to recognize that Saturday's rally was not a singular event or an isolated incident, but rather part of a sustained and calculated effort on their behalf to influence government policy and public opinion. Many of these people feel empowered with the recent election of Obama and show no signs of backing down, but rather of intensifying their efforts. Similar protests have occurred around the world, but the extreme anti-Israel, anti-Jewish, and anti-American sentiments being expressed in the U.S. to this degree are alarming. These enemies of Israel – and America – are making their message and ultimate goal clear in their vitriolic preaching and advocating of death and destruction. Their actions must serve as a wake-up call and motivate us in our current support for Israel and the United States.

One of the RCP protesters held a sign demanding, "Stop Thinking Like Americans!"

The protesters have long since put that into practice. They clearly think like our enemies.

He recently spoke in Jerusalem. It was a speech that should
be mandatory listening in every home and school in this country.

knowledgeable friends. Some day, they will thank you, if they

Speech by Geert Wilders in Jerusalem, December 14, 2008

Thank you very much. It's a privilege for me to be here in this beautiful city Jerusalem, the capitol of the only democracy in the entire Middle East. When I was a teenager I lived some years here in this city and after that I visited Israel more times than I can count. Israel: the only country in the region with a functioning parliament, a rule of law and free elections. The only country in the region that shares the values of our Western societies, in fact is one of the foundations of our Judeo-Christian identity.
We are here to voice our concern over the growing Islamization of the West. We do this in this city, the city of David, the city that, together with Rome and Athens, symbolizes our ancient heritage.

Perhaps a few of you may be new to Jerusalem, yet, Jerusalem is not new to any of you. We all carry Jerusalem in our blood, in our genes. We all live and breathe Jerusalem. We talk Jerusalem, we dream Jerusalem, simply because, the values of ancient Israel have become the values of the West. We are all Israel, and Israel is in all of us.

This city is the capital of a democracy under threat. Israel is under siege, like the Jewish community in the Land of Israel is under siege for over a century now. Israel with all its glory and splendor is unique, and its history unparalleled. Yet, Israel's security situation is not unique, and neither is its enemy.
Samuel Huntington writes it so aptly: "Islam has bloody borders". Israel is located precisely on that border. This tiny country is situated on the fault line of jihad, just like Kashmir, Kosovo, the Philippines, Southern Thailand, Darfur in Sudan, Lebanon, and Aceh in Indonesia. Israel is simply in the way of the Islamic advance. Just like West-Berlin was during the Cold War.

Israel is simply receiving the blows that are meant for all of us. If there would have been no Israel, Islamic imperialism would have found other places to release its energy and its desire for conquest. Therefore, the war against Israel is not a war against Israel. It is a war against the West. It is jihad. Thanks to Israeli parents who see their children go off to join the army and lie awake at night, parents in Europe and America can sleep well and have pleasant dreams, unaware of the dangers looming.
At present the front-line of jihad runs not just through the streets of Tel Aviv and Haifa, but through the streets of London, Madrid, and Amsterdam as well. Jihad is our common enemy, and we better start Facing Jihad before it is too late.

Therefore, if we voice our concern over the Islamization of the West, we have to do it here, where our civilization borders on Islam. Where jihadists fire Qassams into civilian homes in Sderot and Ashkelon, and where a doctor like Aryeh Eldad is characteristic of our civilization by treating terrorists the same way as he treats the Israeli victims. I salute Professor Eldad for his work for humanity, and for his patriotism. And I thank him for hosting this conference in this great city. Aryeh I am proud to be your friend. I will say a few things about the Islamization of Europe and my film Fitna. I will use some examples from the Netherlands, because they are indicative for the situation on the continent.
The mass migration to the Netherlands continues full-speed ahead. Currently, a staggering number of new immigrants arrive every year, many of them Muslim, often uneducated, if not illiterate, bringing along with them the local customs of the mountains and deserts of backward Islamic countries. Thousands and thousands of Muslims arrive in the Netherlands every year, while already one million Muslims are living in our tiny country.

There are many problems concerning this massive influx: immigrants are overly represented in social benefits and crime statistics and the overall costs are staggering. The financial costs of mass immigration in the Netherlands exceeds 100 billion euro's.
But what we have to fear most is the creeping Islamization, the stealth jihad. Because every Islamic neighborhood, every Islamic shop, every mosque, every Islamic school, every burka, every veil is regarded by many Muslims as building blocks towards a larger goal, towards domination.

This is in fact the essence of the problem. Not crime, not even the financial burden. The biggest problem is the demographic development, and the way it influences our society at large. Immigration from Muslim countries and the demographics will result in the Eurabia that the brave Bat Ye'or is warning about. It will become reality if we don't act now. A decade and a half ago, a then unknown American politician used the following slogan in his political campaign: "it's the economy, stupid." From now on the motto of my party will be: "its demographics, Dumbo".

More than forty years ago a British politician gave a famous speech. He stated that, looking into the future, he saw 'rivers of blood' as a result of the uncontrolled influx of immigrants. Enoch Powell's speech was the starting point of a debate on mass immigration in Europe. As usual, the leftist establishment labeled him an extremist and his career went down. But the British people loved him, and supported Powell. London's dock workers took him to their hearts, marching by the thousands in support of Mr. Powell.
Looking back, I share Enoch Powell's alarmist views on mass immigration, but 'rivers of blood' is not something I see happening. We will not face civil war. Our political elite are trying to make us believe that the influx of Muslim immigrants is similar to the waves of immigration that took place centuries ago. Or they say that "Christianity developed towards modernity, and therefore Islam will do the same".

How are we to remain a democracy if a large part of the growing Muslim population is in favor of introducing sharia law? How is Amsterdam to remain the gay capitol of Europe if gays are regularly beaten up by non western immigrants, often Muslims? How are the Jewish communities of Europe to survive with a growing presence of an ideology that is so blatantly anti-Semitic? How are we to remain a centre of cultural and scientific excellence if Islam opposes art, and academic exploration? How are we to remain an open and tolerant society if we are faced with part of the Muslim community favoring self-segregation and showing no desire for assimilation? How can we look to the future with confidence, when a large part of the population turns to a seventh century desert for answers?
These are the questions the multiculturalists don't want to answer!
Instead of providing leadership our political elite fooled us by using our own principles against us. I will give you five examples.
First: Our tolerance is used as an argument to bring in more Islam, to bring in more Muslims, and a way to tell us that we should not criticize their Islamic culture; if you do you are labeled intolerant and racist.

Second: Democracy. A growing Muslim electorate is too hard for politicians to resist, so they give in to their grievances and demands to win their vote. Before long sharia law will be introduced, legally and democratically, by means of majority vote. The former Dutch Minister of Justice once said that sharia law could be part of the Dutch legal system if a two third majority of the population would be in favor of it.

Third: Our religious freedom is utilized by an ideology that has no plans whatsoever to play by our rules, yet demands the same rights our traditional religions have had for centuries;

Fourth: Our welfare state that once was the envy of the world, now functions as a magnet for a lot of non-Western immigrants, dreaming of a cushy life in wealthy Europe.

Fifth: Our open borders came to symbolize our open mindset, an example of our cosmopolitan hospitality. But now we have lost control of our borders and we can't even keep track of who is entering our countries, let alone prevent them from entering.
Our Western principles are hollow if they are not accompanied by a desire to sustain our culture and our civilization, based upon knowing who we are and where we come from. We are not from Saudi-Arabia. We are not from Iran. We come from Rome, Athens and Jerusalem. That makes our civilization special, and certainly worth preserving.

In spite of all that, the political elite are still madly in love with their pet project, the multicultural society, as they call it romantically. Apparently they don't live in the neighborhoods that are turning Islamic. They will tell you "they are nice people. I don't see the problem?" The Muslim immigrant's demands sound reasonably to them, like: "let us have an extra-large mosque".
It is very difficult to remain optimistic in the face of the growing Islamization of Europe. The tide is turning against us. We are losing on every front. Regarding the demographics, Islam is gaining momentum. The ruling elite are even proud of the Muslim immigration. After all, this way they can show everyone that they are not racists. Academia, the arts, the media, trade unions, the churches, the business world, the entire political establishment have all converted to the suicidal theory of multiculturalism and cultural relativism.

Cultural relativism is the biggest disease modern day Europe suffers from. Not all cultures are equal. Our Western culture is better than the Islamic culture. In the words of the brave Dr. Wafa Sultan: "It is a clash between civilization and backwardness, between the civilized and the primitive, between barbarity and rationality". Indeed also here in Israel you are not fighting a territorial war, it's not about territory it's about ideology. The Islamic ideology does not seek cooperation or assimilation but aims for submission and dominance over non-Muslims. There is no moderate Islam; there will never be a moderate Islam. There might be moderate people who call themselves Muslim, but there is no moderate Islam.

Leftist journalists and leftist politicians hasten themselves to label anyone critical of the Islamization a 'right-wing extremist'. The entire establishment has sided with Islam. Leftists, liberals, and Christian-Democrats are now enslaved to Islam. They are Dhimmi's. Lenin once labeled ignorant people that unknowingly aided his cause 'useful idiots'. Well, the West is now full of these 'useful idiots', and they are even proud of it.

Now some words about my film Fitna.
I felt I had the moral duty to educate people about Islam and the Islamization of Europe; the duty to make clear to everyone that the Quran stands at the heart of what some people call terrorism but is in reality jihad. I wanted to show that the problems of Islam are at the core of Islam, and do not belong to its fringes.
I have warned against the dangers of the Koran and Islam in numerous interviews, opinion articles, speeches and of course parliamentary debates, but pictures often say more than words. That is why I made Fitna.

Fitna is a documentary that shows what is being done in the name of Islam. Without placing all Muslims into the same category, I think I have succeeded in showing that the Koran is not some dusty old book, but that it is still used today as a source of inspiration for, and justification of hatred, violence and terrorism across the world.

A few weeks ago the world has once again seen what Islam is capable of. In Mumbai, jihadists separated Muslims from non-Muslims, according to a witness in a Belgian newspaper. The non-Muslims, the Kaffirs, were subsequently shot. The terrorists also went straight for the tiny Jewish centre in Mumbai, where, according to reports made to an Indian news website, they horribly tortured Jewish people before brutally murdering them.

Most of the Western media stick to naming the culprits as being members of 'separatist movements'. In doing so, they are missing the main point and are unjustly ignoring the Islamic nature of the terror attacks. After all, if it is a conflict about borders, why are they killing Jews in Mumbai? Why, in a city of tens of millions, did the jihadists find the shortest way to the only rabbi in town – in order to kill him and his wife? Why are Israel's enemies always shouting "Allah-Akbar" and "kill the Jews" if all they want is peaceful coexistence and mutual understanding? Maybe, I'm just guessing, is it because they have an ideology that tells them to kill Jews, to kill unbelievers, and to advance Islam until there is world domination. Islam, after all divides the world in a dar-al-Harb, and dar-al-Islam. Islam is a totalitarian ideology full of hate, violence and submission.

From the day the plan for my short film was made public it caused quite a stir, in the Netherlands, in Europe and across the world. First there was a political uproar, with government leaders across the continent in sheer panic. The Dutch Minister for Foreign Affairs called on me to abandon my film project. The Minister of Justice let it be known that post hoc criminal proceedings could be initiated if the movie was shown. The Dutch government investigated the possibility of having Fitna banned in advance. The Dutch branch of the Islamic organization Hizb ut-Tahrir declared that the Netherlands was due for an attack. Internationally there was a series of incidents. The Taliban threatened to organize additional attacks against Dutch troops in Afghanistan and a website linked to Al Qaeda published the message that I ought to be killed, while the Grand Mufti of Syria stated that I would be responsible for all the bloodshed after the screening of the film.

In Afghanistan and Pakistan the Dutch flag was burned on several occasions. Dolls representing me were burned as well. The Indonesian President announced that I will never be admitted into Indonesia again, while the UN Secretary General and the European Union issued statements in the same cowardly vein as those by the Dutch government. I could go on and on. It was an absolute disgrace, a sell out. It was treason to our Western principles, it was treason to freedom of speech, and it was treason to liberty itself. My own government was not defending me, but became my worst enemy in the process.

Because of Fitna the State of Jordan is currently litigating against me. Jordan wants to prosecute me for blasphemy, demeaning Islam and slandering the Prophet Muhammad; violations of the Jordanian Penal Code, even though the alleged violations did not even occur in Jordan. As you all know, Jordan is a non-democratic country, without an independent or impartial judicial system and without a strongly developed civil society. According to a recent study by Human Rights Watch, torture is a routine and widespread practice in Jordan.

Jordan's attempt to prosecute me is an infringement on the sovereignty of my country, the Netherlands. It is an infringement on freedom of speech. Jordan's attempt is in fact a hostile act towards freedom itself.

If Jordan succeeds in prosecuting a democratically elected member of a Western parliament, what kind of precedent would that set? But it's not about me. The principle is not Geert Wilders. If you look at the press and the rest of the political elite in the Netherlands, nobody cared. Nobody gives a damn! This was the worst thing. A nondemocratic country like Jordan cannot use the international or domestic legal system to silence anyone. If this starts, if we allow this, we can get rid of all parliaments, and we should close down every newspaper, and we should shut up and all pray to Mecca five times a day.

But there is some hope. For instance there is some hope with the middle class workers. Underneath the empty bravado of the elite, the middle class worker, the average Joe, is starting to realize that there is something terribly wrong with Islam. In the Netherlands, sixty percent of the population considers mass immigration to be the worst mistake since the Second World War. And an equal sixty percent sees Islam as the number one threat to our national identity. But the Freedom Party is the only political party in the Dutch parliament that shares their view.
And there is hope that political parties critical about the Islamization of the West are gaining momentum all over Europe, are getting stronger. And we will work together with common legislation, with common initiatives, perhaps even with a common group in the European parliament as defenders of the West, defenders of our culture, defenders of our identity, defenders of our freedom.

We need a new way of thinking, a new paradigm, to defend our liberties. Just reiterating our devotion to tolerance and democracy is not good enough, as we are Facing Jihad. We need a new set of goals and ideas. We need new leaders. And we should always remember where we come from. We all come from Jerusalem.

Let me wind up. The essence of my short speech today is that Europe is in the process of Islamization, and that we need to fight it, because if we don't fight the Islamization we will lose everything; our cultural identity, our democracy, our rule of law, our liberties, our freedom. We have the duty to defend the ideas of Rome, Athens and Jerusalem. The ancient heritage of our forefathers is under attack; we have to stand up and defend it.

A century and a half ago, on the other side of the world, a young President said exactly what I mean. This is what Abraham Lincoln said in 1862, and I leave you with that: "The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise — with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country." (Abraham Lincoln, Annual Message to Congress, December 1, 1862)
It is five to twelve. Freedom must win. We have to win, and we will win!

Negotiating wih Narcissistic Islam

A very powerful - if not unassailable - case has been made that Muhammad was suffering from serious Narcissism, and left as his legacy, a very Narcissistic political system. Many world leaders have suffered from this condition, and many millions of people have died as a result, but Muhammad's mental state has been responsible for more deaths than any other political leader before or since.

Thanks to June F., ACT Chapter Leader in Bluffton, we can explore the concept of "talking Peace" with a Narcissistic regime.

PS If you know the leadership in Israel, perhaps you could send this enlightening information to them -- as if it would help!

Could a peace talk with radical Islam actually work?

When I think of the words peace talks, I automatically think of positive communication, good will and potential allied relationships.


What actually is a peace talk? Isn't it talks where 'peace' is discussed?


Isn't it necessary to first have negotiators who understand what the word 'peace' actually means!???


Narcissistic people do not understand peace, so let's take a look at narcissism….


I want others around me to be what I think they should be.
I want others to do what I want them to do and think how I feel they should think!
I want others to cater to me and make my life more comfortable!
I want others to look up to me and never question my judgment!
I want others to think like me so that we are more compatible!
I want others who disagree with me to behave in ways that do not affect me negatively!

If I demand these desires, consciously or subconsciously, I would be manifesting narcissism.


I think like this because I am inherently selfish and self-serving! This is the nature I was born with.
I acted accordingly until I grew old enough to recognize the dysfunction in this mentality.
I was born narcissistic and completely consumed with having my own way until I matured.
Because I am now an adult, I realize that demanding selfishness successfully is inconsistent with reality!
And that education happened after the age of 2 years old. When I was 2, it was all about me, I was narcissistic!


The goal of the Islamic ideology is to subjugate everyone to the Islamic law!
This is the mental equivalent of a 2 year old throwing a temper tantrum!


The Islamic religious practices revolve around this unrealistic mindset.
The Islamic ideology encourages people to never grow up and take responsibility for their choices. Their arrested state of mental and emotional development keeps them in the 2- 5 year old range!


Muslims have the emotional/social agenda of an infant or toddler! It is evidenced by their laws and religious practices!


Look at the covering, cutting and subjugation of women, etc., their insistence on foot baths and prayer rooms, their disapproval/dislike of anyone who is not Muslim and ultimately their call to jihad.


They live in the adult world but refuse to accept the responsibilities that go along with the adult world.


This is a dysfunction deeply rooted in Narcissism. In short; Islamic ideology is narcissistic!


So, how does a person have a peace talk with a narcissist?
Or a 2 year old?
Or a Muslim?


Let's go with what we know!....


When a 2 year old throws a temper tantrum do we negotiate?
Just because we want peace do we give in to the 2 year old with candy, special privileges, etc. or do we sit them in a time out chair?

Seriously, do we have peace talks with our 2 year olds? (Ok, those of you who answered yes, have you noticed that when you negotiate and compromise with a 2 year old that it simply emboldens them to throw the same tantrum later on!!?)


Peace talks do not work with a 2 year old because 2 year olds are narcissistic (self-involved) by nature! This is the age where consistent discipline is an absolute necessity! Without the accurate "cause and effect" mirroring, a 2 year old will never grow out of his narcissistic tendencies!


AND, peace talks will never work with adult narcissists who choose Jihad as their temper tantrum!


"Uncomfortable consequences" are the only effective recourse to the advances of Islam! "Concessions" and appeasement have the reverse effect!

Why we must pay attention to the Mumbai Terrorist Attacks

Why We Must Pay Attention to the Mumbai Terrorist Attacks
By Sean Osborne, Associate Director

27 November 2008:
The Al Qaeda-inspired terrorist attacks in Mumbai (formerly known as Bombay) India may well be a bellwether for Western counter-terrorist operations, particularly in the United States. Given the 25 November FBI/DHS advisory regarding “a plausible but unsubstantiated report” on “discussions” within Al-Qa’ida communications channels, all things must be considered relevant in order to counter the threat of Islamic jihadist strikes in America.

There is no doubt that Al Qa’ida discussions half a world away in Mumbai evolved beyond the “aspirational planning.” I think it necessary at this point to reiterate that one of the primary forms of “aspirational planning” discussions among Al Qa’ida jihadists are found on the forums resident with internet websites. As Randy Taylor reported 18 days ago, an Al Qa’ida “aspirational planning” document was posted on one of their primary forums. Item number 9 in the 15-item “aspirational planning” list of desired targets is the subject of the current FBI/DHS advisory.

Based upon analysis of this communication, as well as other more recent communications, the Northeast Intelligence Network most certainly may be in possession of further information, as have you and every other entity which read Mr. Taylor’s report. This kind of information is known within the United States Intelligence Community (US IC) as Indications & Warnings (I&W). Moreover, the list in the communication we collected goes far beyond strikes in the manner of the London or Madrid suicide bombers on the transportation sector in the northeastern United States and Canada. This communication discussed strikes against nine different nuclear power stations located across the entire northeast region and the entire electrical grid. In multiple and overwhelming instances it references strikes against the financial infrastructure of the United States based in New York City. It discusses what can only be mass tactical assaults on seven passenger laden commercial airports. It discussed the financial impact upon the United States during a time of financial crisis as well as the minimal cost to the Islamic jihadists in executing the strikes, and that they will occur at some particular point in time without warning.

Let’s shift our focus to Mumbai. How do these multiple attacks in India compare to what I’ve just discussed? They are well-coordinated mass attacks across a single major Indian city. But more importantly I think it should be obvious that the tactical execution of these attacks evidences a significant departure from the previous template of broad-daylight terrorist strikes. These Indian jihadists utilized darkness as tactical cover for the execution of a major, multi-faceted terrorist operation by launching the entire operation at 10 PM local time in Mumbai.

This evident change in tactics begs some analytical questions. Was this change in tactics based upon an Al Qa’ida leadership operational directive, or was it left to the local cell leadership to determine? Is this what occurred in the attacks against the World Trade Center in New York City in February 1993 and again in September 2001? It would appear so – the local commander determined the timing of attack, Al Qa’ida’s central command merely approved the concept and targets of the strike, and was generally aware in advance that the strikes would occur. Al Qa’ida central was briefed on the plan of attack, it did not originate them.

All of this has brought about a change in my thinking about the execution of terrorist attacks. Al-Qaeda is a decentralized terrorist entity. It was years ago at the urging of Mustafa Setmariam Nasar (Abu Mus'ab al-Suri), the Al Qa’ida master tactician, theoretician and composer of the Al Qa’ida warfighting doctrine, who urged individual jihadists and cells worldwide to execute independent jihad operations on its behalf.

Since the Al Qaeda leadership places no constraints on the timing of attacks by its worldwide cells, there exists the distinct possibility that the leader of a given terrorist cell could choose an Islamic or Infidel date of significance or anniversary upon which to execute a strike. In this respect the "setting of dates" by individual jihadi posters on their forums cannot be completely ignored or discounted. Just because this "setting of dates" has not been the case in the past does not mean it won't be the case in the present or in the future. In fact, Islamic jihadists have repeatedly struck Israeli civilian targets on Hebrew dates of significance or holidays on many occasions over many years. The point here is that one additional and very recent jihadi forum post cites a specific date during the first week of January 2009 in which a “settling of accounts” with President George W. Bush will occur. We’ll see what actually transpires relative to these near-term threats, yet I believe it is prudent for all concerned to learn from past events as well as the recent.

Yet One More Reason Why Islam is NOT Compatible With the West!

Phoenix Imam Tells Muslims To Disregard U.S. Laws by Robert Spencer

“A Muslim must try his best to abide by the rulings of Sharia [Islamic law] whenever possible as much as he can. He should not allow himself to be liable to those western laws that contradict the clear-cut Islamic rulings.” The rulings of Sharia, mind you, include stoning for adultery, amputation of the hand for theft, and institutionalized discrimination against women and non-Muslims. But the speaker was not some fanatic Wahhabi in Saudi Arabia; it was the Phoenix-based imam Omar Shahin, president of the North American Imams Foundation. This is probably one reason why, as The Arizona Republic reported Monday, the FBI has stepped up scrutiny of Shahin and other Muslim leaders in Phoenix.

Omar Shahin has been in the news before. He is the spokesman for a group of six imams who sued US Airways after being removed from a flight in 2006 when passengers and crewmembers reported that they were behaving suspiciously. The imams were handcuffed and later interrogated, then released with no charges, whereupon Shahin led a news conference to condemn prejudice against Muslims. All six imams later sued the airline, airport police and an FBI agent, claiming they had been singled out solely because they were Muslim. “We did nothing,” Shahin maintained in a report on Boston Herald.com -- and the Council on American Islamic Relations seized on the incident as evidence of American “Islamophobia.” “We are concerned that crew members, passengers and security personnel may have succumbed to fear and prejudice based on stereotyping of Muslims and Islam,” said CAIR’s executive director, Nihad Awad, in the same report.

The imams also initially sued the anonymous passengers who reported them, before House Republicans pushed through a measure protecting whistleblowers in such circumstances. As I discuss in my new book Stealth Jihad, if this initiative had been successful, the only winners would have been Islamic jihadists who wanted to hijack airplanes. Any ruling against the passengers would have essentially placed Muslims beyond the pale of security-related scrutiny, because someone who reported suspicious behavior by a Muslim in an airport or airplane would have faced a real risk of being sued for discrimination.

Shahin’s questionable activities didn’t begin with this lawsuit, either. In the '80s, he was an imam at the Islamic Center of Tucson, which the Republic identified as “a hub for adherents to the radical Wahhabi school of Islam, some of whom later became important aides to Osama bin Laden in the al-Qaida terrorist group.” The report by Sean Holstege and Dennis Wagner also notes that Shahin raised funds for two Islamic charities that were ultimately shut down on accusations that they were funneling contributions to the jihad terrorist group Hamas.

Yet despite all this, “Shahin has served as a Muslim community liaison with the FBI and the Phoenix police,” according to the Republic. How did a man with a record like Shahin’s ever get into the good graces of the FBI? He was able to do so because many officials in positions of influence in the United States are standing by passively as the stealth jihad advances. They are ignorant of what is happening, and those who do know are making sure not to tell them. Willfully blind officials appear dedicated to “multiculturalism” and “diversity” no matter what the cost. They hinder the investigation of and resistance to the stealth jihad.

There is no gauging the extent of stealth jihadist infiltration into American intelligence and law enforcement agencies. But there is no question that the chief enabler of that infiltration has been political correctness among American officials. In this great war against the global jihad network, no one wants to appear anti-Arab or anti-Muslim -- and this has led more or less directly to some serious lapses in national security.

If America is to survive, it is eventually going to have to choose national security over political correctness -- and call upon Islamic leaders like Omar Shahin to stop teaching Muslims in the U.S. to disregard American laws when they conflict with Islamic norms. The spectacle of the FBI increasing scrutiny of a man whom they have worked with in the past is ludicrous beyond belief. How many more imams in America will teach Muslims that when Islamic law and U.S. law contradict each other, it is U.S. law that must give way, before those sworn to uphold and defend U.S. law wake up to what is happening?

Targeting America

Twenty-Year Plan: Islam Targets America , by Dr. Anis Shorrosh


When we immigrated from Jerusalem, Jordan* in January, 1967, little did I imagine that Islam would become center-stage in world news. As my sincere interest in the growth of Islam in America intensified, I began to discuss, dialogue, and then debate Muslim leaders throughout the world from an Arab Christian's view of Islam. So far, I have had the privilege of participating in over 20 debates and discussions on every continent plus T.V. and radio. "Islam Revealed" was released in 1988 and is now in its 8th printing. The True Furqan is now in its third printing in the three years it has been published. It is the only book which challenges the Quran in substance, style, language and contents. "The True Furqan" can be located on http://www.answers-to-islam.net/ or http://www.islam-exposed.org/.

This is my analysis of the Islamic invasion of America, the agenda of Islamists and visible methods to take over America by the year 2020! Will Americans continue to sleep through this invasion as they did when we were attacked on 9/11?

1. Terminate America's freedom of speech by replacing it with hate crime bills state-wide and nation-wide.

2. Wage a war of words using black leaders like Louis Farrakhan, Rev. Jesse Jackson and other visible religious personalities to promote Islam as the original African-American's religion while Christianity is for the whites! Strange enough, no one tells the African-Americans that it was the Arab Muslims who captured them and sold them as slaves, neither the fact that in Arabic the word for black and slave is the same, "Abed."

3. Engage the American public in dialogues, discussions, debates in colleges, universities, public libraries, radio, TV, churches and mosques on the virtues of Islam. Proclaim how it is historically another religion like Judaism and Christianity with the same monotheistic faith.

4. Nominate Muslim sympathizers to political office for favorable legislation to Islam and support potential sympathizers by block voting.

5. Take control of as much of Hollywood, the press, TV, radio and the internet by buying the corporations or a controlling stock.

6. Yield to the fear of imminent shut-off of the lifeblood of America - the black gold. America's economy depends on oil, (1000 products are derived from oil), so does its personal and industrial transportation and manufacturing -41% comes from the Middle East.

7. Yell, "foul, out-of-context, personal interpretation, hate crime, Zionist, un- American, inaccurate interpretation of the Quran" anytime Islam is criticized or the Quran is analyzed in the public arena.

8. Encourage Muslims to penetrate the White House, specifically with Islamists who can articulate a marvelous and peaceful picture of Islam. Acquire government positions, get membership in local school boards. Train Muslims as medical doctors to dominate the medical field, research and pharmaceutical companies. Take over the computer industry. Establish Middle Eastern restaurants throughout the U.S. to connect planners of Islamization in a discreet way. Ever notice how numerous Muslim doctors in America are, when their countries need them more desperately than America?

9. Accelerate Islamic demographic growth via:

a. Massive immigration (100,000 annually since 1961)

b. No birth control whatsoever - every baby of Muslim parents is automatically a Muslim and cannot choose another religion later.

c. Muslim men must marry American women and Islamize them (10,000 annually). Then divorce them and remarry every five years - since one cannot have the Muslim legal permission to marry four at one time. This is a legal solution in America.

d. Convert angry, alienated black inmates and turn them into militants (so far 2000 released inmates have joined Al Qaida world-wide). Only a few have been captured in Afghanistan and on American soil. So far - sleeping cells!

10. Reading, writing, arithmetic and research through the American educational system, mosques and student centers (now 1500) should be sprinkled with dislike of Jews, evangelical Christians and democracy. There are 300 exclusively Muslim schools with loyalty to the Quran, not the U.S. Constitution.

11. Provide very sizeable monetary Muslim grants to colleges and universities in America to establish "Centers for Islamic studies" with Muslim directors to promote Islam in higher education institutions.

12. Let the entire world know through propaganda, speeches, seminars, local and national media that terrorists have hijacked Islam, not the truth, which is Islam hijacked the terrorists. Furthermore in January of 2002, Saudi Arabia's Embassy in Washington mailed 4500 packets of the Quran, videos, promoting Islam to America's high schools--free. They would never allow us to reciprocate.

13. Appeal to the historically compassionate and sensitive Americans for sympathy and tolerance towards the Muslims in America who are portrayed as mainly immigrants from oppressed countries.

14. Nullify America's sense of security by manipulating the intelligence community with misinformation. Periodically terrorize Americans of impending attacks on bridges, tunnels, water supplies, airports, apartment buildings and malls. (We have experienced this too often since 9-11.)

15. Form riots and demonstrations in the prison system demanding Islamic Sharia as the way of life, not American's justice system.

16. Open numerous charities throughout the U.S. but use the funds to support Islamic terrorism with American dollars.

17. Raise interest in Islam on America's campuses by insisting that freshman take at least one course on Islam. Be sure that the writer is a bonafide American, Christian, scholarly and able to cover up the violence in the Quran and express the peaceful, spiritual and religious aspect only.

18. Unify the numerous Muslim lobbies in Washington, mosques, Islamic student centers, educational organizations, magazines and papers by internet and an annual convention to coordinate plans, propagate the faith and engender news in the media of their visibility.

19. Send intimidating messages and messengers to the outspoken individuals who are critical of Islam and seek to eliminate them by hook or crook.

20. Applaud Muslims as loyal citizens of the US by spotlighting their voting record as the highest percentage of all minority and ethic groups in America.

* Jerusalem was held by Jordan from 1948 when it attacked Israel until 1967, when it again attacked Israel.
