For 15 years the FBI was engaged in a landmark investigation into the largest Islamic-based charity in the United States, called The Holy Land Foundation. The organization was operating as a front for Muslim terror groups, funneling cash from western countries to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood, until they were finally put on trial in 2008.
Convicted leaders were known as the “Holy Land Five,” and included Shukri Abu Baker, Ghassan Elashi, Mufid Abdulqader, Abdulrahman Odeh, and Mohammad El-Mezain. Among the documents seized from these individuals during the investigation was a strategic paper drafted by senior Muslim Brotherhood operative Mohamed Akram in 1991.
The paper was titled: “Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Group in North America”. It outlined an agenda called the “Civilization-Jihadist Process”, also known as “Stealth Jihad”.
The memorandum gave detailed methods for establishing Islam as a “civilization alternative” in the West and a “grand Jihad” for eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within. It called for the ‘sabotaging’ of the west and its “miserable house” by domestic hands AND the hands of the believers so that the west is eliminated and “God’s religion is made victorious over all other religions.”
The plan explicitly referred to using western society’s own people, institutions, laws, and unwitting allies (progressive groups and NGOs, media, politicians, academics, or civil-rights organizations) to advance the Islamic agenda.
Tactics included infiltration of education, media, government, finance, and alliances with non-Islamic actors “when tactically beneficial” while maintaining ideological separation. This is also called “long-term settlement” (tamkeen); a form of demographic or cultural subversion rather than direct conquest. It is often mentioned in the paper as “the settlement mission”.
A related 1982 Muslim Brotherhood document (called “The Project”) outlines a 100-year global plan with similar elements: building parallel societies, exploiting Western freedoms, and forming pragmatic coalitions.
One problem the Muslims wrestled with was the need for foreign alliances and western “advocates” to make immigration and the integration of Islam into target countries more “official”. Twenty-five years ago, this was considered all but impossible in the US and in Europe. However, since around 2014, the Sharia fundamentalists found a willing and ready ally in the new “woke” left.
Today, the notion of even discussing the agenda of “Stealth Jihad” in a public venue in 2026 is labeled “racist” by progressive activists and left wing politicians (even though Islam is not a race). If you were to go back in time around 15 years ago and explain to people what is happening today in terms of third-world immigration, they would probably laugh in your face and call you a conspiracy theorist.
In 2026 in Europe the plan is nearly complete and in the US the plan is well underway. The change in how our society views Islam as an untouchable subject is largely due to a dark and convenient political alliance between the woke left and the Stealth Jihad.
Only recently has the problem of Muslim immigration risen to the forefront of media coverage, but only because of the work of citizen journalists like Nick Shirley who are exposing widespread fraud among migrants. The majority of this fraud, whether it is in Minnesota or California, is connected to Somali Muslim immigrants and is perpetrated with the help of leftist NGOs and politicians.
Coming from a country with an average IQ of 67, these people are not capable of instituting such a plan on their own. They had help and it is clear that Democrats are deeply involved in these operations, perhaps in exchange for financial kick-backs, but certainly in exchange for votes (Somali migrants in Minnesota voted 80% in favor of Democrats in 2024).
It’s not surprising, but there are a lot of similarities between progressives in the west and third world Islamic migrants from the east.
The political left has long held an agenda similar to Stealth Jihad. In Marxism it is referred to as “cultural hegemony” or “the long march through the institutions”. It is associated with the work of Antonio Gramsci, the founder of the Italian Communist Party. Interestingly, his ideas of cultural hegemony are often studied as a means of better understanding the agenda of Stealth Jihad.
Gramsci’s approach (developed in his Prison Notebooks in the 1920s–1930s) argued that in advanced capitalist societies the “ruling class” maintains power through cultural hegemony. To overthrow this, he asserted that revolutionaries must wage a “war of position” rather than a frontal assault.
This meant infiltrating and capturing key institutions (schools, universities, media, churches, judiciary, government bureaucracies) to erode cultural norms, reshape public consciousness, and create counter-hegemony until socialism/communism becomes the new ideological norm. We have witnessed this nightmare in vivid color with the woke movement of the past decade. For the longest time the agenda was dismissed as “conspiracy.”
I would also point out that the general attitudes of third world migrants and leftists are essentially the same when it comes to production and survival: Both groups view producers as targets for piracy. Why would they integrate into western society, work hard and build for the future when they can feed off the production of others? Why create their own wealth when it is so much easier to pillage the wealth of people who innovate, construct and save?
But this partnership goes far beyond easy cash and socialized living into the realm of ideological and religious warfare. As noted, Stealth Jihad is about the exploitation of western freedoms and open systems as a means to invade and drive out the native religions (Christianity).
The Christian belief system is essential to western civilization. Whether or not a person living in the west believes in it doesn’t matter; they still benefit from the inherent Christian drive to build, structure and maintain a moral and ordered society based on rules for EVERYONE.
You would think that a partnership between Islam and the woke cult would be completely antithetical. After all, Muslim societies are defined by the rule of dominance, tribalism and brutal theocracy. There is zero tolerance in Islamic society for feminism, homosexuality, transgender theory or atheism. The Marxist world is rooted in atheism and moral relativism – The deconstruction of societal norms and the idea that unchecked hedonism is the ultimate form of freedom.
However, each group is beneficial to the other; they serve each other’s purposes. They also have the same primary enemy (Christianity). This intersection of benefits and shared hatred is where we find “Multiculturalism” – The agenda to wipe out the west using third-world immigration as a bulldozer.
Multiculturalism is simply an updated version of Gramsci’s Marxist cultural hegemony strategy, combined with third world notions of ethnic supremacy or religious supremacy. If you want to understand what is happening in places like the EU or the UK; if you want to know why these governments are completely ignoring the will of the public and blatantly aiding an Islamic invasion, this is why.
These are leftist governments with a clear objective to eliminate competing western and Christian ideals in order to establish a new cultural hegemony, and they are doing it subversively by using liberal values as a cudgel. Modern Europeans, fearful of ever being accused of “bigotry”, refuse to admit that they are committing high-minded suicide. Blind acceptance of immigration and the inability to discriminate logically is setting Europe on the path of total collapse.
This is what the Marxists want, and this is what the Muslims want. It’s much easier to pirate and enslave a population in the midst of social and economic crisis.
In the US we see a similar plan, though, leftists are working much harder to present Muslim migrants as ideologically aligned with liberalism. When conservatives see groups like “Queers for Palestine”, or we see New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani hiring transgenders for his administration while holding Muslim dinners on the floor of his office, what we are witnessing is the theatrical facade of “inclusivity.”
At bottom, these people do not share viewpoints that can truly “intersect”, but their short term goals are the same. Leftists hate conservatives and Christians because we represent a rules based order that stands in the way of their vision of pure hedonism. Muslims see conservatives and Christians as an obstacle to global Islam.
If the conservative west was theoretically defeated and we disappeared, the left and the Muslims would certainly turn on each other. Each group probably thinks they can control the other group when the time comes.
As the war in Iran moves forward, I have little doubt that we will see an exploding insurgency from leftists and Muslims in the US which will force us to question our foundational concepts of a “free and open society”. We will be forced to acknowledge that these exalted ideas cannot be applied to everyone. Specifically, they cannot be applied to people who want to destroy us. At bottom, the “rights” of people waging war upon us do not matter.
The question is, can we survive such a war and come out the other side with a constitutional republic intact? I think we can, but such a system would have to parse out and separate from ideological groups that see the west as a target (the Founding Fathers would NEVER have tolerated an anti-west invasion). We must accept, finally, that we cannot coexist in freedom with such people.

Leftism and islam are incompatible with Western Civilization.
Thanks to the Internet Mozlems all over the World are exposed to views that are normally censored. I believe this rejection of Islam in Iran is because of the Internet exposing people to the truth.
The same thing applies to the Left.
Democrats (er...DemoKKKrats) have never seen a totalitarian tyranny they didn’t admire and envy.
Marx and Islam: evil twins from the deepest pits of Hell!
Keep the pressure on. They can try to ignore their hypocrisies but too many people are paying attention in 2026.
For now, it’s money. They’ll find out later that their awesomeness fell on deaf Muslim ears, when their heads are to be severed. For now, the Muslim left finds them useful.
There are ironies involved with this.
The left celebrates and pushes homosexuality. Yet the Islamists throw homosexuals off of buildings in some parts of the world.
The left celebrates women’s rights and women’s issues and all of that. Yet the Islamists literally wrap up women in sacks and make them second class citizens in some parts of the world.
It appears to me there are irreconcilable differences between the leftists and Islamists. Yet we see, they seem to be united in their common goals of fundamentally transforming western civilization.
Good article. Thanks for posting.
“...It appears to me there are irreconcilable differences between the leftists and Islamists. Yet we see, they seem to be united in their common goals of fundamentally transforming western civilization.....”
It’s “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” thingy. The left thinks that in the end, they can control Islam. As the muzzies are using the left to further their cause knowing in the end they’ll be subdued to Islam.
The reality is: Islam will eventually prevail over the athest left as they have done for thousands of years; and the left in their arrogance, will be subdued and those that refuse to assimulate will be tossed of skyscrapers by the thousands. The arrogant left, especially their AWFLs, are outright stupid.
The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan proved that Islam was the stronger of the two. Why did the US fail as well? Because it made the mistake of respecting Islam. We spent blood and treasure defending a Constitution that was explicitly Islamic!
Spanish conquistadors were right when they conquered the New World. But the problem was that America was no longer a Christian nation in 2001.
The Islamic revolution in Iran happened in no small part because of the alliance it had with the Left. After the Mozlems won they killed all those useful idiots .
There was a very interesting article posted here yesterday about how the former left in Iran that assisted the mullahs to take over in 1979 had realized the error of its ways 47 years later.
Interesting read as the mullahs promptly killed all the useful idiot leftist the second they had the opportunity.
Out left should learn from that mistake, but they won’t.
They spent almost 700 years kicking the Mozlems out. The Spanish Inquisition was a pretty brutal but effective way of kicking the muzzies out. Not possible today in our secular world. Worse than that Spain is inviting in its long time former enemy!
Right now? No. But things are changing quickly.
The post-World War II world order (which includes the Cold War) is now ending.
“Leftism and islamism are allied because both first require the defeat of Western Civilization before they can implement their respective dystopias.”
I formulated this idea over 20 years ago. I’ve been beating this drum hard ever since.
Glad to see it catching on.
Well, I'm 30 years ahead of this particular curve...
Science and technology has advanced too far for some people to turn back to mystical beliefs. America still has lots of people listening to silly stuff like Coast To Coast every night but for the hard core engineers and scientists out there it has negative appeal.
We've been comfortable for a long time. But that will no longer be the case. Hard times coming up shortly.
