... So don't tell me that you want peace: Mr. Nawash and cohorts, you want to cleanse the Jewish state and bring in Islam. You want a 24th Muslim state to add to the many failed states and terror enclaves in the region. You are destroyers of peace, not proponents of peace. Peace exists in Israel. Peace does not exist in the countries surrounding Israel. Peace is not and has never been offered to Israel. You cannot tell me that the model of Gaza is normal nor will another Islamic state established in the region erase the root cause of...

President Barack Obama has appointed a far left labor unionist to a security sensitive U.S. trade post. Bob King On February 16, 2011,  Obama  announced the appointment of United Auto Workers president Bob King to the Advisory Committee for Trade Policy and Negotiations. As U.S. trade positions and data are always  key targets of foreign intelligence services, one would think that appointments to such a body would be subject to thorough scrutiny. Either this was not done in King's case, or affiliation with far left organizations, is no longer considered any sort of danger to national security in today's Washington....

Just wondering. 26 year old guy in VA, your typical small government conservative who fights for low taxes, privatized SS, cutting spending at all levels, secure borders, and for the GWOT, and sees the value of both the Afghan War and the Iraq War. But I am Muslim.

Mr. Kamal Nawash who calls himself the “president of Free Muslims Against Terrorism, with 15 chapters across America” is planning to meet the Congressman Tom Tancredo this Wednesday. In a communiqué Mr. Nawash expressed his “understanding of the frustration of the Congressman” when the latter hypothetically said; America should bomb the Islamic Holy Sites in Mecca as a deterrent to Islamic terrorism. He plans to tell the Congressman Tancredo who expressed the sentiment of millions of Americans who on daily bases watch in horror as dozens of innocent people are murdered in the name of Islam, that “many Muslims share...

Though met by modest crowds, the recent first-ever Free Muslims March Against Terrorism could be considered a success in one key respect: It further exposed the unwillingness of most major Muslim groups to condemn the radicals that have come to dominate their religion. It also further cemented the growing reputation of organizer Kamal Nawash, head of the Free Muslims Coalition (FMC), as one of the only genuine moderate leaders of a national Islamic organization. While most Muslim groups gripe about being expected to condemn every Islamic terrorist attack — they aren't directly responsible, they reason — Mr. Nawash wastes no...

(Washington, D.C.): For over two years, the Center for Security Policy has been warning that organizations and individuals sympathetic to or otherwise supportive of the radical, intolerant and jihadist subset of the Muslim faith known as "Islamists" have mounted a sophisticated political influence operation against the Bush Administration. Today’s Washington Times contains a column by Center President Frank Gaffney entitled "Dubious Company</a href>" that describes a meeting Secretary of State Colin Powell held with representatives of four such groups just last Thursday. Unfortunately, it now seems clear that this influence operation has succeeded in getting more than meetings with senior...

The Muslim American Society and International A.N.S.W.E.R. organized a rally in Washington, D.C. today “to protest (the) Bush attack on Muslims, immigrants, civil rights and civil liberties.” The event, called Muslim Solidarity Day, was held at Freedom Plaza on Pennsylvania Avenue between the White House and the Justice Department--the main targets of the protesters wrath. Though thousands were expected to turn out, barely two hundred and fifty Muslims and Godless commies came out to hear speaker after speaker denounce President Bush, Attorney General John Ashcroft, America and Israel. The Memorial Day weekend weather was cool and overcast, but dry. The...

Editor's note: Readers may also be interested in Moderate Islam or Fata Morgana? and freemuslims.org Speaks Out.There is good news to report: The idea that "militant Islam is the problem, moderate Islam is the solution" is finding greater acceptance over time. But there is also bad news, namely growing confusion over who really is a moderate Muslim. This means that the ideological side of the war on terror is making some, but only limited, progress.The good news: Anti-Islamist Muslims have found their voice since September 11. Their numbers include distinguished academics such as Azar Nafisi (Johns Hopkins), Ahmed al-Rahim (formerly...

The Free Muslim Coalition Against terrorism congratulates President George Bush on his victory and reelection to the presidency of the United States. Bush won a decisive victory and we wish him all the best in the next four years. President Bush has led the War on Terrorism with clarity and steadfastness. In the face of extreme criticism, President Bush never wavered. He continued to fight the War on Terrorism, despite political and personal risks. Since we formed, the Free Muslim Coalition endured criticism and attacks from all sides for our efforts in the War on Terrorism. We understand how difficult...

An article at Khilafah.com, telling all the "peaceful Muslims" : “But whosoever turns away from My Message, verily for him is a life narrowed down, and We shall raise him up blind on the Day of Judgment. “In the manner of the people of Firaun and those before them; they disbelieved in Allah's communications, therefore Allah destroyed them on account of their faults; surely Allah is strong, severe in requiting (evil)”. [TMQ Anfal: 52] We have witnessed the destruction of Communism and we are currently witnessing the death of Capitalism. Islam, unlike Capitalism and Communism, never died. It may have...

Kamal Nawash, Esq. Many residents and citizens of the United States of Arabic background are making the claim that they are being unjustly and illegally deprived of their constitutional rights. Many Arab Americans point out that since the World Trade Center and Oklahoma bombings, there has been a series of legislation and various orders enacted to deprive innocent Arab Americans and resident Arabs in America of their freedoms and constitutional rights. Arab Americans have pointed out that the enactment of the Omnibus Anti-Terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, the Executive order of 1995 (which designated Palestinian groups who...

BOSTON -- Even for those who do not follow such affairs closely, it is no secret that radical Islam has settled a rather large piece of real estate in cyberspace. Al Qaeda and a host of other terror groups have used websites as a tool for boasting, for bloody self-promotion and, with more serious implications, to send coded signals to cells, thus commencing terror attacks. Throw the word “martyr” into Google and you will find thousands of extremist sites celebrating the lives and times of suicide bombers. With any luck, however, those days of murderous electronic mayhem may have reached...

People from all walks of life keep asking me the same question: “Are there moderate Muslims?” I know myself that there are, but… Many of the moderates are faced with intimidation by militant Muslims (“Islamists”). Muslims also have to contend with their own old cultural habits, hateful religious leaders, a bigoted press, and schools that teach hatred and homicide bombings. As usual, just as things seem the darkest, I happen upon something that brightens my spirit -- at least a little. Last week, FOXNews mentioned the organization “Free Muslim Coalition Against Terrorism” (FMCAT). I immediately went to their website, and...
