Blacks still drawn to Islam despite FBI raids
Breitbart ^ | 10/30/2009 | JESSE WASHINGTON

Posted on 10/30/2009 11:04:49 AM PDT by Responsibility2nd

By now, Sekou Jackson is used to the questions: Why does he need to leave a work meeting to pray? Don't black Muslims convert to Islam in jail? Why would you even want to be Muslim?

"It's kind of a double whammy to be African-American and Muslim," said Jackson, who studies the Navy at the National Academy of Science in Washington. "You're going to be judged."

Jackson's struggle may have gotten harder when the FBI raided a Detroit mosque Wednesday, saying its leader preached hate against the government, trafficked in stolen goods and belonged to a radical group that wants to establish a Muslim state in America. The mosque's imam, a black American named Luqman Ameen Abdullah, was killed in a shootout with agents.

Read the article.

It goes into the history of black muslims including Malcolm X and Louis Farrakhan.

Of course it's an AP article. So it largely ignores the racism of these black muslims.

Gee...I wonder why...

Do Blacks understand that Islam still practices slavery?

That’s it exactly, plus they get to kill when they deam necessary, their religion tells them its ok. Following Islam fits right into their perverted way of thinking and forgives them of their sins. They have no quilt.

Perhaps a reason for picking Islam is that it is antithetical to Western and Christian beliefs. And it allows you to differentiate yourself from the rest of the U.S.

They get to do the religious HAJ (?) and are not discriminated against by the Arabs, so they say. However, Arabs treat Blacks in some Arab countries as inferiors and some have slavery still, using the Blacks. Of course, this has been reported at times, but nothing sinks in. I don’t even hear a big continuous outcry by the Human Rights Commission.

The left has trained non-Whites to hate this country. Along comes this world-domination movement cleverly disguised as a religion, and non-Whites flock to it.

It gives them a way of acting on their hatred for this country.

The propaganda spread by Malcolm X and his ilk was that Christianity was the religion of the “plantation owners.” So any self respecting black had to reject Christianity and the West in favor of Islam.

What he failed to note, and unfortunately everyone else at the time failed to note loudly and clearly, was that the original slavers and slave traders were . . . Muslims.

It was Muslims who took those blacks and sold them in the first place. As they had been enslaving people for a thousand years previously, including white Americans and Europeans. American slave owners were relatively late to the game, and it was Christians, basically, who ended the slave trade and freed the slaves.

Things you won’t hear from the MSM or the academic historians. Nor will you hear that it was the Democrats who enslaved and Jim Crowed the blacks, and Christian Republicans who freed them.

Christians certainly were guilty, for a time, in the enslavement of blacks. But it was not Christianity who taught them to do it. In contrast, Islam DOES teach that it is good and virtuous to enslave your enemies, as Mohammed did.

Even more than that, the West African slave trade was started by Muslims from North Africa. Millions of black African slaves died making the Trans-Saharan passage - more than died crossing the Atlantic.

Seems stupid to me, it wasn’t fat white guys in powdered wigs dragging the black man out of the jungles.

“Perhaps a reason for picking Islam is that it is antithetical to Western and Christian beliefs. And”

Exactly. Another means of sticking it to whitey. Plus islam encourages the rape of enemy females. Fits statistics quite nicely. If they keep rejecting the mainstream that wants to welcome them, then let them, but don’t let them have it both ways. With AA and various other ways of our elite bending over backwards, these thigs will have it even better than they have before.

They forget history and who were their domestic enemies in Africa. Whites no doubt bought, sold, and owned slaves but who captured them in the first place is something they know nothing about.

Ignorant dupes. History lessons would be too much effort for them. All they have to do is look at Darfur to see who they are serving and what they’ve joined.
