On speakers list for Muslim group cited as a 'chief conduit' to bring Islam to U.S.
Excerpt:
A religion adviser to President Obama has close ties to a radical Muslim group that was an un-indicted co-conspirator in a scheme to raise money for Hamas.
The group, the Islamic Society of North America, or ISNA, has an extensive relationship with the Obama administration.
In February, Obama named a Chicago Muslim, Eboo Patel, to his Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships. Patel is the founder and executive director of Chicago-based Interfaith Youth Core, which says it promotes pluralism by teaming people of different faiths on service projects.
But as you read through the article, you see quite a different picture. Rather than "promoting pluralism by teaming people of different faiths on service projects," there is a much more sinister plan afoot.
Excerpt:
In February, President Obama's top adviser on counter-terrorism, John Brennan, came under fire for controversial remarks he made in a speech to Muslim law students at New York University. The event was sponsored by ISNA.
During the speech, Brennan stated that having a percentage of terrorists released by the U.S. return to terrorist attacks "isn't that bad," since the recidivism rate for inmates in the U.S. prison system is higher.
He also criticized parts of the Bush administration's response to 9/11 as a "reaction some people might say was over the top in some areas" that "in an overabundance of caution [we] implemented a number of security measures and activities that upon reflection now we look back after the heat of the battle has died down a bit we say they were excessive, OK."
Much more about Brennan in the article. But here is one kicker to the report:
Excerpt:
"We are not Americans," shouted one speaker, Muhammad Faheed, at Queensborough Community College in 2003. "We are Muslims. [The U.S.] is going to deport and attack us! It is us versus them! Truth against falsehood! The colonizers and masters against the oppressed, and we will burn down the master's house!"
ISNA was named in a May 1991 Muslim Brotherhood document – "An Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Group in North America" – as one of the Brotherhood's like-minded "organizations of our friends" who shared the common goal of destroying America and turning it into a Muslim nation, according to Discover the Networks.
Islam scholar Stephen Schwartz describes ISNA as "one of the chief conduits through which the radical Saudi form of Islam passes into the United States."
ISNA was founded in 1981 by the Saudi-funded Muslim Students' Association. The two groups are still partners. WND previously attended an MSA event at which violence against the U.S. was urged by speakers.
Steve Emerson shares even more details in the article at World Net Daily. For example:
According to terrorism expert Steven Emerson, ISNA "is a radical group hiding under a false veneer of moderation" that publishes a bi-monthly magazine, Islamic Horizons, that "often champions militant Islamist doctrine."
Nice....huh?
Now, the big kicker:
Excerpt:
Patel and the Ground Zero imam
Last week, WND reported Patel has close ties to the imam who wants to build a 13-story Islamic cultural center near Ground Zero. The two have been documented together discussing America as "the ideal place for a renewal of Islam," WND has learned.
Now it has emerged the two also share a relationship with ISNA.
Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, the controversial Muslim leader behind the plan to build the Islamic center and mosque two blocks from Ground Zero, wrote a book in 2004 that had two different titles, one in English and the second in Arabic. In the U.S., his book was called "What's right with America is what's right with Islam."
The same book, published in Arabic, bore the name "The Call From the WTC Rubble: Islamic Da'wah From the Heart of America Post-Sept. 11."
It has emerged that the Arabic edition of Rauf's book was produced, with Feisal’s cooperation, by ISNA.
Rauf, meanwhile, wrote the afterword to Patel's 2006 book "Building the Interfaith Youth Movement: Beyond Dialogue to Action."
Patel is listed as one of 15 "Muslim Leaders of Tomorrow" on the website for the American Society for Muslim Advancement, which is led by Rauf.
In Patel's 2007 book "Saving Each Other, Saving Ourselves," he recounts discussing with Rauf the future of Islam in the U.S.
Rauf "understood the vision immediately and suggested that I visit him and his wife, Daisy Khan, at their home the following evening," Patel recalled.
Khan founded the society with her husband and has aided him in his plans for the mosque near Ground Zero.
"The living room of their apartment on the Upper West Side was set up like a mosque, with prayer rugs stretched from wall to wall," wrote Patel in his book.
Continued Patel: "I arrived at dusk, prayed the maghrib prayer with Daisy and Imam Feisal and then talked with them about how America, with its unique combination of religious devotion and religious diversity, was the ideal place for a renewal of Islam."
Can there be any more doubt what radical Islam is up to here in the United States? They fake adherence to "religious diversity" when all the while their plan is total Islamization of our nation.! We don't need to look very far to see that this is true. Look at what is happening in Europe! There is a term in Arabic that describes their sneaky, lying motives. I need to look up the term to be sure. Perhaps it's taqiyah? [Will post when find it.]
[Update: Found it! It is called taqiyya. Read the details about this at Daniel Pipes.com - Taqiyya and Kitman: The role of Deception in Islamic Terrorism. ]
[Second update: The term is also known as al-Taqiyya.]
What's more, look here at the ties between these radical Muslims and self-avowed Communist - Van Jones!
Excerpt:
Patel last March wrote a Huffington Post piece referring to Obama's former "green jobs" czar Van Jones as a "faith hero."
"In my last post on Van, I called him an American patriot," wrote Patel. "That is high praise in my book. But watching Van's speech at the NAACP, I have another title for him, one that I reserve for the true giants of history. Van Jones is a faith hero."
Jones resigned in September after it was exposed he founded a communist revolutionary organization and signed a statement that accused the Bush administration of possible involvement in the Sept. 11 attacks. Jones also called for "resistance" against the U.S.
Jones previously stated his advocacy for green jobs was part of a broader movement to destroy the U.S. capitalist system.
WND reported that one day after the Sept. 11 attacks, Jones led a vigil that expressed solidarity with Arab and Muslim Americans as well as what he called the victims of "U.S. imperialism" around the world.
People...don't let anyone fool you. The unholy alliance of Communist revolutionaries and Islamic jihadists are involved in a gradual, but radical takeover of our Constitutional Republic. Anyone who thinks otherwise must either be on their side or ignorant of the facts.
Radical Islam doesn't need to bomb us here in the U.S. anymore. They are getting their dirty deeds done through stealth manuevers (such as the Ground Zero mosque plan) and through evil manipulation of our freedoms and liberty.
Recall that one of our Founders stated that a Constitutional Republic can only be kept by a moral and religious people. What's more, it matters WHAT religion is used as the foundation for our lives in the cause of life, liberty, freedom, and the pursuit of happiness. America was founded upon Judeo-Christian values, morals and ethics. Unfortunately, many people here in the U.S. no longer are willingly follow them. The majority used to follow them willingly - for the good of society. But now, moral relativism, political correctness, secular ideologies, and the misuse of the claim for "diversity" to allow illegal immigrants to invade our nation is wreaking havoc upon our country.
I often see the naysayers claim that Christians are trying to make this into a "Christian nation." That is such a lie. This nation was founded upon Judeo-Christian morals, values and ethics - all of which allows for religious freedoms for any and all religions (as well as no religions), as long as the leaders and followers are not gathering up take over or to do us harm. This cannot be said about radical Islam. There are peaceful Muslims here in America who aren't involved in this attempt at radical takeover. However, they were mostly silent about the terrorist attack of 9/11 (perhaps out of fear and being attacked themselves) and they are mostly silent any time radical Islam perpetrates another attack against our nation or anywhere throughout the world. The people in Muslim nations are often filmed cheering whenever Americans or Jews are attacked and killed by jihadists.
