Islam on Capitol Hill: "no we don’t want to democratize Islam, we want to Islamize democracy"

I alerted Atlas readers that Islamists organizing and leading the "Islam on the Capital" mass prayer on September 25th had disturbing backgrounds and had made outrageous statements. I blogged on three of the leading players calling thousands of Muslims in prayer: Sheik Muhammad Jebril and Sheik Ahmed Dewidar, two Egyptians (home base to the Muslim Brotherhood); and prayer organizer Hassen Abdellah is a lawyer for terrorists.

Imam Abdul Malik of Brooklyn, NY. The New York based imam, Abdul Malik, delivered a sermon to thousands of Muslims who gathered on Capitol Hill. He said:

America is one of the best places in the world to live. What we have done here today we couldn’t do in any Muslim country.

And he made it clear that Islam would seek to make converts.

America, I announce to you, it is my intention to invite your children to the worship of one God. It is my intention to remove every idol from every place – nothing physical. It is a confrontation of ideas, because, brothers and sisters, the most powerful weapon you have in your hand … is truth.

The following is a quote from the Imam Malik's Facebook page:

"Democracy is not revelation, and democracy does not equal freedom, for in democracy you have apartheid, you have slavery, you have homosexuality, you have lesbianism, you have gambling, 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.

So are Christians allowed to convert Muslims in their country?

They preach sedition and do not seek to live under our Constitutional form of government. Islamic law discriminates against non-muslims with unequal punishments and protections for crimes committed by or against non-muslims.

Democracy becoming Islamic is like Atheist Communism becoming Christianized.

Atheists on the Left oppose Christian missionary efforts in Iraq because they say we violate their “religious sovereignty”. Freedom of religion is a universal right whether all nations respect that right or now.

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

Freedom of religion that includes Islam, however, is suicidal because it can only work in one direction.

Until I can walk the streets of Makkah and visit the inside not only of the Great Masjid but the Kabba itself as a Kafir (non-Muslim), I grant no concessions.

Freedom of religion that includes Islam, however, is suicidal because it can only work in one direction.

Islam is a political system of rule in addition to being a religion. It is a system of theocratic rule.

Additionally the way Islam is practiced in America is in violation of our Constitution's separation of Church/Mosque and State. The Saudi government funds the expansion of Islam in the West (paying for the construction of mosques). They do this because the extremists captured Mecca in the 1970s and the Saudis fund Wahabism around the world to get the terrorists off their backs.

The separation of church and state is NOT just a restriction on the sponsorship of religion in America by OUR own government.

I'd go further and say that Atheists on the left oppose anything Western. They love Islam because it's anti-western, anti-capatalism and to a leftists twisted thinking that means it's liberating. Of course most leftists don't understand that islam is a warrior based death cult and you either convert or die. Of course "people of the book" are privileged since they're allowed to live as second class citizens. In an islamic country any outspoken atheist would be killed.

[John Leland 1789]

“So are Christians allowed to convert Muslims in their country?” (Exton1)

“America, I announce to you, it is my intention to invite your children to the worship of one God.” (One of those Muslims)

Let’s take the Gospel of Jesus Christ, very deliberately and purposefully, to all children of Muslims in America. When we see their children any place, put Christian Gospel literature in the hands of those who will take it (many won’t-—many will). Offer them Bibles. Preach the Gospel on their street corners. Etc.

Our nation made it a point to declare how we were providing prisoners at Gitmo with korans. Our nation should have made a point of informing them that our nation practices a freedom of religion and they were free (for possibly the first time in their lives) to read the religious texts of ANY faith they wished to.
