Visitors to Washington D.C. today got to hear what residents in Hamtramck and Dearborn, Michigan, as well as areas of London, Amsterdam and other Western cities already endure five times a day: The sound of amplified Muslim prayers lifted to Allah.
This time, the prayers reverberated over America’s front lawn as some 2,000 Muslims gathered for the Jummah Prayer on Capitol Hill: A Day of Islamic Unity. Promoters had planned for 50,000 but came nowhere near that.
Hadn’t you heard about this? If not, it’s probably because the media have been tight lipped, the better not to embarrass the One in the White House. While some women in burkas were sighted in the crowd, there was no sign of Nancy Pelosi in a hijab, which she wore on her Middle East tour.
The purpose of Friday’s event, according to its Website, was to “manifest Islam’s majestic spiritual principles” in chants echoing “off the Lincoln Memorial, the Washington Monument and other great edifices that surround Capitol Hill.”
Well, they probably didn’t carry that far. These are not church bells, folks. This is the sound, however muted, of the world’s most aggressive religion rearing up and lyrically cooing its desire to master the world under Allah. Islam means, literally, Submission to Allah.
Author and Islam scholar Robert Spencer, who I saw at the rally, described the prayers, said in Arabic, as ultimately about Islamic superiority. While they may not sound threatening, the message they send to those who understand the language is that “our time has come.”
Another purpose for Friday’s prayer on the Mall was to show Muslims worldwide that Islam is on the advance in the U.S. Dubai-based Islamonline.com, which bills itself as “the leading and original Islamic portal on the Internet,” played up the prayer rally, giving it prominent homepage coverage.
Now, before you accuse me of lumping all Muslims in the same bowl, let me say that there are many nice, hardworking Muslims in America who mean no harm. In fact, many are here because they couldn’t stomach living under Sharia Law in the countries of their origin. They may believe that the world will someday be subdued under Islam, but America’s a fine place to be while waiting. Radical Muslims want to recruit moderate Muslims by convincing them that the day of Sharia is right around the corner, not in the distant future. Hence the more muscular approach at the Capitol. To understand why this is more than just a prayer rally, consider this:
The Prophet Mohammad divided the world into two areas: The world of Dar al-Islam, and the world of Dar al-Harb, or House of War. Everyone on Earth is therefore either a Muslim or an infidel who must convert or else. The Koran is quite clear about this.
In Muslim majority nations, such as Saudi Arabia, non-Muslims are regarded as Dhimmis, second-class people whose testimony in court is worth only a fraction of that of a Muslim and who must pay extra taxes. Forget equality under the law, and don’t even ask how they treat Dhimmi women.
Another event all but ignored by the press was a Capitol Hill press conference Thursday held by Former Muslims United, led by Nonie Darwish. She and other ex-Muslims warned that Rifqa Bary, the 17-year-old Ohio Christian convert who fled to Florida because she fears an “honor killing” is not alone. Darwish and many other experts are featured on the documentary Radical Islam on the March, which will be broadcast on The Coral Ridge Hour on Sunday, Sept. 27.
While the Muslim prayer rally sponsors insist their purpose was to show the world that America is a free land that welcomes Muslims, visitors to the Website can hear a loud Islamic greeting in Arabic. If Muslims are interested in being viewed as just another group of Americans, why the Arabic? Why not English? Not even all Muslims speak Arabic. The real message on the site is in large block letters: Our Time Has Come.
Muslims have been emboldened by President Obama’s election and apology tour and his frequent nods to Islam. Their pulses must have raced as he referred four times in Cairo on June 4 to the “Holy Koran,” while noting that the Middle East is where Islam “was first revealed.” They probably cheered when he became the first president in recent years not to host a Christian-sponsored National Day of Prayer event on May 7 at the White House but found time to preside over an Iftar dinner at the White House on Sept. 1 to mark the end of Ramadan.
Rightly or wrongly, many Muslims feel they have one of their own in the White House. Obama’s formative years were spent learning Islam. It’s not for nothing that the Bible declares, “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6, KJV).
Along with Obama’s recent conduct, that might be why Moammar Gadhafi referred to Obama as “my son” in his 95-minute speech at the United Nations on Wednesday. It’s partly why Obama himself received a huge ovation as he came to the UN podium even before he took shots at Israel while gently chiding radical Muslims, and apologizing yet again for America.
A major organizer of the prayer rally is attorney Hassen Abdellah, president of the Dar-ul-Islam mosque in Elizabeth, New Jersey. Abdellah represented several terrorists, including: Mahmoud Abouhalima, who was convicted in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, and is serving a life sentence in Florence, Colorado, and Mahamed el-Atriss, who was convicted of selling fake IDs to two of the Sept. 11 hijackers. On Oct. 25, 1993, New York Times reporter Richard Bernstein described Abdellah as “by far the most aggressively combative of the lawyers in the case.”
Abdellah says he “represents all kinds of people.” Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch says that’s a fair statement, but that Abdellah’s client list is “consistent” and “interesting.”
In 1993, Abdellah spoke on behalf of Nidal A. Ayyad to The New York Times:
“’You look at Ayyad,’ he said of one of the defendants. ‘He's an American. He can practice his religion and his way of life here. Why would he blow up the World Trade Center?’"
Nidal A. Ayyad is now in the supermax federal prison in Florence, Colorado after being convicted of blowing up the garage of the World Trade Center, killing six and injuring 1,042.
Another major organizer of the prayer rally is Manhattan imam Sheihk Ahmed Dewidar, who says Muslims need to project a more moderate image in order to achieve their ultimate goals.
On June 9, 2005, during an interview translated by MEMR TV, short for the Middle East Research Institute Monitoring Project, he quoted another imam uncritically:
Dewidar: In 1995 I heard some sermons, saying that Muslims should march on the White House from some of the mosques.
Host: What do you mean by “march on the White House”?
Dewidar: One cleric said in his sermon: “We are going to the White House, so that Islam will be victorious, Allah willing, and the White House will become into the Muslim house.”
Dewidar then explained that Muslim ideas will be victorious if they lose their radical image.
Another imam, Abdul Malik, is also an organizer. His Facebook site has an interesting lecture for young people. Here are some excerpts:
I want you to hear me very clearly: we must remember as Muslims, we submit and we surrender to nothing and no one: not the government, not the police, not the FBI, not the CIA. We submit and we surrender Allah alone, nothing else. Nothing else….. It’s not gonna be easy and you don’t have time to waste believing that you’re young and that you can involve yourself in sport and play because when the enemies of truth drop the bombs on the world of Islam, their number one target, and the number one people that suffer the most, it is the children who suffer, it is the old, it is the women and that day they become widows and they poison the waters and the air, and the children upon, with cancers and other diseases … Democracy is not revelation, and democracy does not equal freedom, for in democracy...you have all of the vices that are against the spirit of truth; so no we don't want to democratize Islam, we want to Islamize democracy. That's what we want."
Indeed. As the ’60s hippies once said in a more conducive climate, “Peace, Man.”
The once great Christian nation that gave liberty and freedom to it's people by the power of God and His Son Jesus Christ has deteriated to a nation run by fools,liars and thieves.
Mohammad was just an man who was angered that the Judaeo Christian religion would not sanction the buying of baby girls for marriage fun and games and dreamed up a farce religion in which they worship according to his fantasies.
A false prophet, no less. Just a pedofile intent on satisfying himself at the expense of children.
INDEED.
Excellent piece.
OF COURSE they have one of their own in the WH
by design . . . from hell.
“We submit to no one....”
Within America’s borders, that mindset will likely be in for some rude adjustment sometime within the next decade or so.
The Washington Post’s story about this event was all unicorns and rainbows. The “beleagured” Muslim just love this country, etc. The reporter interviewed some of them and the words “jihad” and “violence” were never mentioned, nor was their obligation to convert non-believers and impose Shariah law questioned. They were not asked to comment on — let along denounce — those who were arrested, the plotting, the terror, the violence. The Muslim community, the Post reports, is being “rocked” by “verbal attacks from conservatives” as the result of recent terrorism arrests! There is a huge picture of thousands of them with their butts up in the air on today’s Post front page.
The” beleagured” Muslim just love this country, etc”
I liken that to the witch in Hansel and Gretel just loving little boys and girls.
“... as some 2,000 Muslims gathered ...”
Ever biased CNN reported 8000.
If they used that calculator for the 9/12 Tea Party, the count would be 6 million.
It really burns the liberal journalists that some 2 million pro American liberty and justice conservatives hate the Washington D.C. lying and thieving politicians and democrat liberals in general.
Fools, Liars and Thieves....boy, you nailed that one.
Suddenly I find myself saying, “I sure could go for some ribs right now!”.
It would be a waste of good food, but what if a crowd of us `infidels’ advanced upon those muzzies, each of us holding up with both hands a sparerib rack and asking in an aggressive manner, “How about some pork, Omar!?”
Yeah, I know, we’d be taken down by the D.C. police and charged with a hate crime. Just a thought.
A straightforward local news report (unusual for Fox 5 DC, which is packed with Obozo worshippers):

...we don’t want to democratize Islam, we want to Islamize democracy. That’s what we want.”
^^^
No, that can’t be true. They want to become citizens just like me. Can’t we all jut get along?
>>>> The Washington Post has become a refuge of liberal fascist journalists who have no concern about truth <<<<<
As a teenager I had a large Washington Post paper route (also the Washington Star).
Today the creepy socialist fishwrap it has become is not allowed inside my house.
TS.
No matter where the peaceful muslims flee, eventually the vile, hate filled one follow to set up shop!
Well, if you don’t want to waste those delicious pork ribs, getting 100 people dressed up like Porky Pig and running through the crowd of Mohammadan Satanists, making sure to reach out and touch as many of them as possible might do the trick.
Thanks for that link.
This from the news story there:
“The first-of-its-kind event was inspired by President Barack Obama’s inaugural address and remarks he made earlier this year in Egypt. Those who attended prayed for peace and for the soul of America.”
enough said....
I wonder what CNN’s count will be when we show up on their doorstep on Oct 17th here in Atlanta...
>>>> was inspired by President Barack Obama’s inaugural address <<<<
Hmm... guess I read it too fast, not so “straightforward” as I first thought.
But it does illustrate the Obozo worship at Fox 5 DC.
You could walk through the crowd handing out pieces of bacon.
Or walk through the crowd and drop it in front of them when the are “praying”.
Actually, I didn’t hear or read O’s Inaugural address.
And I only heard about his speech in Cairo.
The point to me is that
A) Obama is seen by Muslims the world over as inviting them into this country in a big way (a way most Americans do not want)
B) I don’t want Muslims praying for the soul of America because what they are “praying” for is for Islam to rule in America!
C) However, yes, it is a free country and they can be free to gather and “pray”.
D) But I do not have to like it.
Hideous.
“dressed up as Porky Pig”
That might work, although I think the best means to enrage muzzies is to display the Crusader flag; that long red St. George’s Cross on a stark white background (the first national flag of England, BTW). Either as a flag, or a knightly shield.
MEMRI transcripts of muzzie maniacal ravings show copious usage of the term “crusader”. It seems to be the worst thing a muzzie can call a kafir, though I would be proud to bear the title.
” The sound of amplified Muslim prayers lifted to Allah.”
Allah hard of hearing?
Pick one.
Aren’t there rules about ringing churchbells in most cities? So that most churches can’t ring their bells as they used to? Why do neighbors endure blaring noise 5 times a day? I think I would complain.
The author is implying the opposite of what this verse says. It does not say "Train up a child in evil and when he is old, he will not depart from it".
The whole theme of the Bible is that humans can repent and can become a follower of righteousness.
Of course, if half those psychotics are as stupid as they usually tend to be, they might not get any flag reference. But oinkers they get.
“Oinkers they get”
Hmmmm....I see the `when pigs fly’ logo used a lot in outdoor advertising.
How about `flying pig’ flags to annoy the muzzies?
No joke: banking institutions in Britain can no longer give out piggie banks, because it offends you-know-who.
It’s despicable the depths to which England has sunk in accommodating the invading hordes. These folks have zero intention of assimilating into civilized modern society, their goal is to remake everywhere they settle into those wonderful 7th century hellholes, and if you don’t agree with their plan, you’re intolerant, and we’ll cut off your head. Gee whiz, Mohammadans are just like liberals, aren’t they ?
Not quite as murderous (excluding abortions) but equally evil, JMHO.
