“The First Three to Five Minutes: Arab and Muslim Cultural Awareness for Law Enforcement” is an outrageous example of the U.S. government appeasing the very worst elements of Islam, even at the expense of our own laws and values. This training film not only instructs law enforcement officers to obey Sharia gender rules when conducting investigations, it’s also a flagrant piece of pro-Islamic propaganda that presents Muslim gender discrimination as proof of Islam’s “strong connection to God.”
“The First Three to Five Seconds” was initially developed by the Department of Justice, and it’s now used by both the DOJ and the Department of Homeland Security to train all of their law enforcement personnel. “The First Three to Five Seconds” is described on the DHS website as a film that “introduces law enforcement officers to basic principles of the Arab American and Muslim American cultures.” However, the DHS description hardly does this instructional film justice.
To begin with, there is the outright pro-Islam propaganda. Naturally, all religions see their tenets and customs in a positive light. But it’s not the job of the United States government, in a taxpayer-funded film, to produce religious propaganda which claims that one particular religion’s tenets and customs somehow make that faith “closer to God.”
“The First Three to Five Minutes” opens with the Muslim call to prayer. The narrator proclaims, “In order to keep a strong connection with God, Islam prescribes that believers pray five times a day.” The narration continues, instructing law enforcement officers:
"If you visit a mosque, be aware that there are separate entrances to the prayer sections for females and males as an extension of modesty. To keep their minds on the worship of God, men and women pray in separate sections.”
Some would argue that Islamic gender segregation is due to an intense, virulent, and pervasive anti-female bias within the faith – something negative, not positive. Yet “The First Three to Five Minutes” uses taxpayer money to promote a positive view of Muslim gender segregation. If a law enforcement agency wishes to instruct its officers in how Muslims pray, fine. Lay out the facts; leave the value judgments out.
Interestingly, the line about Muslims’ “strong connection to God,” while clearly spoken in the film, is absent in the DHS transcript....
Where “The First Three to Five Minutes” hits absolute rock bottom is in its instructions to law enforcement officers, should they have to visit a Muslim home during the course of an investigation. Startlingly, the film tells officers not to enter a Muslim home if there is an adult female occupant who is not in the presence of a Muslim male! The film provides a dramatization in which a male officer knocks on the door of a home. An adult female in a hijab answers meekly, informing the policeman that her husband is not home, so she cannot speak to the officer or allow him inside. The narrator says, “This might seem suspicious,” but, he reassures the viewers, it is indeed “inappropriate” to enter a Muslim house in a situation like that. The officer is shown turning around and leaving.
So if you are up to no good and the cops come a knocking just have a muzzie suit handy to slap on, go to the door and in a falsetto claim hubby ain’t home. Outfrigging standing.
If we don’t nip this in the bud now, we’ll end up like the UK where female police officers in muslim areas are “strongly encouraged” to wear headcoverings while on duty in muslim areas!
ping for later
We have a MUSLIM loving MARXIST in the 1/2 white house!
I am on the back 9 of life. As such, I am more of a spectator now. I watch this with amazement.
The left wants to embrace islam, and facilitate sharia law because it’s not Christianity. Once islam takes root here, it will be horrific for the left. Feminists, homosexuals, and perverts in general will find that islam is not the religion of peace, but it will be too late.
As for the average American... morons, most of them. Sitting back, letting this all happen while totally ignoring life in favor of smart phones, American Idol, and The real housewives of someplace or another.
Everything coming our way will be well deserved, sadly.
And the victors write the history.
When an Orthodox Jew, or Christian, or Mormon, or any one, separates men and women, and prays several times a day, according to the Left it is horrible, ignorant, and primitive.
But somehow, when the Muslims do it, it is beautiful, “getting close to God.” Naah, there’s no double standard there.
BTW, the meek female that came to the door was likely a slave and is not allowed to talk to anyone, or read, or drive, or wear shoes, or use the phone. The reason she is covered head to toe is to cover the religiously mandated beatings her husband is required to give her.
And the crazy Left just loves this stuff.
When I hear the Shmah, or the Lords prayer, I think it is beautiful. When I hear the Muslim call to prayer, I reflexively lock and load and start looking for incoming. Religion of Peace? Yeah right. These Lefties have no idea what they are unleashing.
Muslims do not immigrate, they assimilate. And the idiot Left (who will be the first with their heads on the chopping block) are acting as their cheerleaders.
I don’t think they assimilate at all. I think they infiltrate and then go to work imposing their hateful standards on whatever society they’re in that has been gullible enough to allow them to enter.
You mis understood. I meant they assimilate whatever society they find themselves to Islam. They assimilate others and they have been very successful in Europe. London is now almost unrecognizable as an English city. That is why many refer to it as Londonistan. The same with France.
The Muzzies are very good at what they do. And now, with Europe more or less ‘conquered’, they are turning their sights on America.
Another ten years and we will be just like Europe.
It’s not just him. Mitch Daniels loves the muslims, too. Public schools loves muslims. Some churches are ready to kiss up as well.
Several private organizations neo-Protestant churches in the United States believes that the current context, Christians and Muslims must put aside old differences of centuries of religious, moral and historical, to unite in a new religion called “Chrislam. The phenomenon is discussed extensively in American society.
Based on recent public speeches “The Last Crusade”, a neo-Protestant church congregation in Houston, Atlanta, Seattle and Detroit have started Sunday sermons about Muhammad, the founder of Islam, which considers all Muslims in the world and last most important prophet.
To the astonishment of parishioners, they noticed that the pastors of the new congregation began to take the Koran at the altar, right next to the Bible.

And he also got on his TSA board a high ranking Muslim.
Police should not be entering ANYONE’s home if told not to by the occupants - regardless of their religion or if they are male or female. The only two exceptions being if they have a warrant or if they are witnessing an active crime.
I am shocked at some of the comments made by muslims about their religion in an effort to “assimilate” others to their way of thinking. At our local high school, one muslim student told his classmates he and his family are “muslim christians” and offerred to teach them about his faith. Fortunately, the teacher in this instance used it as a teaching tool, and after questioning the kid about his belief in Jesus Christ, was able to point out to the muslim student and the class that you could not be both a muslim and a Christian.
Try reading from that link. It is not the English language. It is strings of English words, but strung together poorly.
But, even in the early days of Christianity, it was common for the monks to tell a people or a tribe who had never heard of Jesus, that they could retain their old customs and just add Christianity. Then slowly over time, the old customs would fade away and Christianity would supplant them. Their Gods and rites would turn into Christian Saints and customs. The former fertility Goddess Ester, becomes the holiday Easter. Fertility celebrations becomes hiding eggs and rabbits on the day of the cruxifiction. And on and on.
BTW, there are a lot of Arab Christians, but I have never heard the term Muslim Christian before. And the teacher is correct. Mohammed was very, very, very much anti-Jewish and anti-Christian. The Koran clearly states that Christians and Jews must be converted, killed, or subjugated. This is no interpretation, it is stated clearly word for word in the Koran.
A Muslim practicing Christianity without conversion and commitment, would be defacing/disrespecting both religions. You have to be one or the other. You cannot be two opposite things at the same time.
In this case the kid is definitely a practicing muslim and not a Christian by any stretch of the imagination. He does not beleive in Jesus Christ. I actually commend the teacher for pointing this out by questioning him about his beleifs after the student had raised the issue. I am sure at this point, the muslim student did not understand Christianity, and therefore got caught up in the questioning as a result.
Many of the other students had this all figured out before the teacher even did his questioning, but without the teacher’s questioning, some of the other students might have actually bought into the muslim student’s ruse, so I commend the teacher for making it clear to all the students that you can not be both a muslim and a Christian, and fully explaining why.
I wonder what instruction is given for entering the home of a United States Marine.
