Should Americans Care About CAIR? - (spokespersons engage in doubletalk; fostering Islam take-over)

The first attack on American soil by Islamic terrorists was the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. On 9/11, Islamic terrorists had hoped to kill 40,000 people. The 1993 attack was a dry run that did not give them the bang for their buck. Only six Americans lost their lives that day. It was a great disappointment to the terrorists. Cyanide was in the van that was blown up in the basement-parking garage of the WTC that day, but the extreme heat of the fire destroyed the poisonous gas before it killed anyone. It was a failed experiment. But the Islamics learned from their mistake.

The Islamic cat was out of the bag and so it should surprise no one that in 1994, CAIR—the Committee on American/Islamic Relations—was born. It’s called damage control. Islam needed it, badly. Bill Clinton was able to take some of the heat off of Islam for the 1993 attack on our soil by calling it a “crime” and not what it actually was—a bold Islamic terrorist attack on American soil.

When one visits the CAIR website, it seems quite wonderful. CAIR only wants equality, justice, peace, and mutual understanding. Isn’t that what all good people want?

Two statements from its “Mission Statement” appear to be quite straight-forward: “CAIR condemns all acts of violence against civilians by any individual, group or state” and “CAIR advocates dialogue between faith communities both in America and worldwide.”

In the first statement is the word, “civilian.” What we Americans see as a civilian is not always what Islamics see as civilians.

Abu Musab al-Zarqawi states that anyone who gets in the way of his great plan and holy jihad, civilian, or soldier, will be eliminated. Omar Bakri Mohammed, the spiritual leader of the British extremist sect al-Muhajiroun, stated that killing women and children in Britain would be justified because he believes British soldiers have murdered women and children in Iraq.

Hashemi-Rafsanjani, a ruling cleric in Iran, stated that a Muslim country should drop a nuke on Israel, assuring his fellow terrorists that only Israel would be destroyed. It’s obvious that Mr. Rafsanjani doesn’t know much about nuclear weapons. Is Israel filled with civilians? Of course it is, but not if you are Muslim. All Jews in Israel are legitimate targets because they are “occupying” Muslim land. Islam seems to forget that Jews have lived there for 4000 years.

In 1994, CAIR coordinated meetings for Bassam Alamoush, a Jordanian Islamic militant who told a Chicago audience that killing Jews was "a good deed."

A Saudi cleric gave permission to bin Laden to use a nuclear bomb in an American city but only as a “measure of reciprocity.” Has America dropped a nuke on an Islamic country and no one has reported it?

Often in Islam, anything is justified because it says, “They did it first.” A “civilian” is a legitimate target because he supports the evil government of his country. Americans re-elected George Bush, therefore, we are no longer “civilians.”

In all fairness, these men are all terrorists or radicals. CAIR implies that it doesn’t support such men. So what do the members of CAIR have to say about justice, equality, religious freedom, and terrorists?

Ghassan Elashi, founder of the Texas Chapter of CAIR, was convicted on 21 counts of laundering and funneling money to known terrorist groups.

Then there is this outrageous statement from Omar Ahmad, co-founder of CAIR: "Those who stay in America should be open to society without melting, keeping mosques open so anyone can come and learn about Islam. If you choose to live here, you have a responsibility to deliver the message of Islam ... Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faiths, but to become dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth."

While professing religious tolerance and understanding around the world, Nihad Awad, CAIR’s executive director, was outraged when he received word that Christian aid workers dared hand out literature about Christianity to the tsunami victims. He said, "Just when our nation's image in the Islamic world was improving as a result of the outpouring of American aid in the tsunami disaster area, we hear from those who would exploit the tragedy to advance their own extremist agenda…"

Just to refresh your memory, one of the mission statements of CAIR is to promote justice and mutual understanding in America and around the world. In practice, CAIR will cram Islam down the throats of Christian Americans, using our freedoms and laws to protect it and Christians shall never, ever attempt to teach Christianity to any Muslim. That is an “extremist agenda.” CAIR does not consider its plan to replace our Constitution with the Quran extreme, however.

CAIR does not recognize Hamas as a terrorist organization even though Hamas is responsible for numerous attacks on Israeli civilians. Dancing on the head of a pin, CAIR reverts to the “legitimate resistance to Israeli occupation" excuse to overlook the bus bombings and the killing of children in an ice cream shop. There is that “who we see as a civilian is not who Islam sees as a civilian” loophole again. All can be justified in Islam. It’s just a matter of what the definition of “civilian” is.

What is CAIR’s purpose? Perhaps this statement from CAIR spokesman, Ibrahim Hooper, gives us a clue: "I wouldn't want to create the impression that I wouldn't like the government of the United States to be Islamic sometime in the future...But I'm not going to do anything violent to promote that. I'm going to do it through education."

While CAIR may not carry out attacks on America with bombs or missiles, its cause is quite obvious and its goal is very clear: the United States of Islam. Personally, I like my country the way it is right now—mostly Christian and free.

There is hope that our government is waking up to the double-speak of CAIR. A conference in Spain to explore ways to deal with religious intolerance, is CAIR-free. Kamal Nawash, president of the Free Muslim Coalition, is on the government’s list to represent America. Dr. Imam Khaleel Mohammed, a friend of Mr. Nawash, has this to say about CAIR: “…these organizations stand up and preach to the press how opposed they are to terrorism--and since, unlike Kamal Nawash, I do not have the necessity to be politically correct, I can mention bloody names, and I can call names--and I call names like CAIR and MAS. They stand up and preach hypocrisy...”

How Not To Deal With Terrorist

Posted by The Editors on June 6, 2005 at 7:55 AM

There are several very disturbing signs of a shift in the Bush approach toward terrorists and their supporters. The moral clarity that guided Bush in his first term seems to be giving way to a misguided policy of accommodation that has failed time and again.

A Reuters news report with the headline Reluctant U.S. Shows Signs of Shift on Hamas. Following Europe's lead, the State Department is accepting Hamas as a legitimate player in the Palestinian political world even though they continue to employ terrorism. Demands that Hamas disarm and renounce terrorism have been taken off the table. (I guess they don't want to press Abbas for results on this front.)

This is the failed tactic used by Tony Blair and the Irish Republican Army (IRA). Blair allowed the IRA to participate in the civil political process and they used their new stature to further conduct their terrorist activities.

There is also mounting evidence that the President's brother Governor Jeb Bush sent a laudatory letter to the Florida Chapter of the Council of American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). A copy of a letter on the Governor's stationary makes for scary reading. Bush declares, "I commend your contributions to the protection of civil rights and freedom of religion." Is the Governor not aware that CAIR is a defendant in 9/11 related lawsuits because of their support of the bad guys? Did he forget that CAIR failed to accept an invitation by a United States Senate Committee looking into possible CAIR terrorist activities?

If the United States Government continues down the road of dealing rather than eliminating terrorists we are going to lose the war.

Of course, CAIR is now using this letter from Bush for its own propaganda purposes.

The list of speakers at the event he is praising would make your hair curl.

Here is a letter to Orlando city officials before their event that was praised by Jeb Bush, Charlie Crist and others:

May 27, 2005

To Whom It May Concern:

Tomorrow, Saturday, May 28th, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) will be holding an event at the Orange County Convention Center. There, they will be raising funds for the establishment of a CAIR office in Orlando. We, the Americans Against Hate, for a number of reasons, do not believe you should allow this to occur.

CAIR was the brainchild of the Islamic Association for Palestine (IAP), a group that was created by the present-day number two leader in HAMAS, Mousa Abu Marzook. Upon its founding, IAP President Omar Ahmad became CAIR's National Chairman, and CAIR co-founder Rafiq Jaber became the IAP's President. In December of 2004, the IAP was found liable in the death of David Boim, who was brutally murdered during a HAMAS terrorist operation.

Speaking at the Orlando fundraiser will be CAIR's Executive Director, Nihad Awad. While Awad was with the IAP, he was quoted as saying, "I am in support of the HAMAS movement."

After 9/11, CAIR used its website to raise money for the Holy Land Foundation and the Global Relief Foundation, two terror charities that were later closed down by the U.S. government.

CAIR Board Member, Ghassan Elashi, who was the head of the Holy Land Foundation, was convicted of sending money to HAMAS; CAIR Fundraiser, Rabih Haddad, who was the head of the Global Relief Foundation, was deported; CAIR Civil Rights Coordinator, Randal Todd "Ismail" Royer, was convicted of plotting to leave for Afghanistan to assist Al-Qaeda in fighting against Americans; CAIR Community Affairs Director, Bassem Khafagi, was convicted of bank and visa fraud and then deported; and CAIR Advisory Board Member, Siraj Wahhaj, had his name listed as a potential co-conspirator to the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center.

Every year, thousands of families flock to Orlando to experience its featured resorts and attractions. Many individuals and businesses, both large and small, look to Orlando to sustain their livelihoods. And many others make beautiful Orlando their home. In this sensitive period of time, while we are at war with those who wish to destroy us, we do not want anything to threaten the citizens of Orlando, Orlando's exceptional tourism industry, or Orlando's general way of life. Given CAIR's alarming past, it is our belief that the establishment of a CAIR office in the heart of Orlando could be a disaster for the city. We therefore ask that you air on the side of caution and prevent this from occurring. Please stop the CAIR Orlando office from becoming a reality. Please stop it now!

We thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Joe Kaufman

Chairman

"What would happen if the whole world became Muslim? Who would they kill? Everyone would have to kill everyone else to get their lust for blood satisfied. Maybe they'd run a death lottery!"

What Would Happen if the Muslims Win....

1) Our role-models would be cruel war-mongers who would keep having bloody fights with each other even after the entire world population is converted to Islam.

This is based on the observed fact today that a majority of the Muslims (who take to the streets) across many countries, lionize and idolize extremists and war-mongers like Bin Laden but not progressive and constructive reformers like Ataturk, Nasser, Sadat, Hosni Mubarak, former King Amanullah of Afghanistan, etc.

2)We would be living in theocratic dictatorship all across the world. There would be no democracy, no elections and no public accountability for any act. The only arbiter would be the Quranic prescriptions for all times in the future.

This is so since today most of the Muslim majority countries cannot sustain democracies. Except Turkey, and Egypt, no Muslim majority country has a sustained democratic tradition. But most Muslim populations look up upon Islamic dictatorships or monarchies.

The list of such theocratic dictatorships would include Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Jordan (despotic monarchies), Syria, Iraq, Chad, (dictatorships) Iran (nominal democracy under strain from clerics), Kuwait (nominal democracy under emirate), UAE, North Yemen (and occupied South Yemen which had a sort of democratic set up earlier), Libya, Sudan, Tunisia, Algeria (Military rule of secularized military), Malaysia (civilian dictatorship of Mahathir Mohammed), Indonesia (fledgling democracy), Pakistan, Bangladesh (spells of democratic rule and military dictatorships), Central African Republic (kingdom of former "Emperor"; Bokassa), Uganda (a Christian majority country that had a taste of Islamic dictatorship under Idi Amin), Afghanistan (theocratic dictatorship of the Taliban), etc.

3) There would be ill-treatment of women, Women would not be allowed to have an education, pursue any career. Men would be forced to wear turbans and grow beards.

This possibility is based on the observation today that a majority of the Muslim countries do not give equal rights to women like education, free-movement, driving, apparel, and even participation in mass-prayers in the mosques alongside their menfolk, (no doubt the scripture will be quoted to explain this, but this is the reality). The hijab, Chador or burqua (veil and full length gown) for women is still a common feature in Islamic societies.

In the ideal Islamic society of Talibanized Afghnaistan adult men are forced to grow a beard and wear the prescribed Islamic dress, they cannot sport normal (Western) hairstyles and even students above the age of three are forced to wear turbans.

4) We would have to send our kids to get the highly jaundiced and narrow scrap of education in religious schools that would teach only the Quran.

This is based on the observation today that a majority of the devout Muslims in the Islamic world prefer talim (religious education) in Madrasas (Muslim theological schools) as against professional education.

5) There would be no respect for human rights and no freedom of thought and expression. Anyone speaking out against Islam or the Quran or the Prophet would be punished with death. Flogging and stoning to death, cutting off of the limbs would be the prescribed punishments for common crimes like stealing.

This is based on the observation today that some leading and vocal Muslim organisations and some governments in power, practice the politics of fatwah (Muslim religious decree) of death towards those who express themselves against Islam. A Muslim who publicly declares that he is no longer a Muslim is considered a Murtad and he is punishable by death (although there are various interpretations of the Koran on this)

6) There would be no public media like the TV, Cable or Internet. Since these would be looked upon as the Satan's tools in corrupting humankind with information and entertainment.

This is based on the observation today when many Muslim sects frown upon mass communication media like the Television. In some instances, TV sets are dumped as an act of piety.

7) The Dictatorial Rulers all over the world would be Muslim Clergymen

This is based on the observation that most Muslims oppose the separation of the State and Clergy. Temporal power is vested in the clergy in most countries in Dar-Ool-Islam or the Islamic world.

8) All aspects of life would be regimented with what is stated in the Quran. There would be no evolution of new laws and in fact no new thoughts

This is based on the observation today where a majority of the Muslim countries prefer some variant of the Sharia i.e. Muslim laws based on the Quran, as against modern civil laws. The Sharia laws include stoning to death, cutting of limbs, castration, etc.

9) Even if you were a Muslim and belonged to a minority sect like the Shias or Ahmediyas, you would be considered to be an infidel or heretic and be subject to harassment.

This is based on the observation today where a majority of the Sunnis (a majority sect among the Muslims) look upon the Shias as heretics. So also are the other smaller Islamic sects.

10)There would be no scope at all for having any opinion, idea, innovation outside the Quran-al-sharif or anything that is considered non-islamic. This would in fact freeze all progress.

This is based on the observation today where most Muslims look upon anything non-islamic as Kufr and Jahiliyat (infidel, ignorance) and also the entire non-islamic world as Dar-ul-Harb (literally 'Hostile zone') or the Infidel world. And anything that even a Muslim chooses to do, which is frowned upon by the clergy, is considered as Haram (illegitimate).

11) There would be a complete ban on dance, music and entertainment.

This is based on the observation today where most devout Muslims spend all their spare time in reading the verses of the Quran and in Namaaz (mass invocation of Allah). Their minds are closed to anything outside the Quran. They live an insular life and shun socializing with non-Muslims. The Taliban rule in Afghanistan epitomizes what an "ideal" Islamic society the World over would look like.

12) Aggressive, quarrelsome attitudes would be a common feature of human behavior and social relations would be perpetually violent whether at the family level, local area level, province level, national level or global level. The crime rate would be high. The all Muslim world society would be perpetually at war with itself.

This is based on the observation today where most of the criminals (in non-Muslim countries) are Muslims. Muslims are also dominant in global terrorism. Even at the national level they (Iraq, Libya, etc) specialize in the making of chemical weapons of mass destruction. Soon the nuclear capability that is today limited to Pakistan will proliferate to the Arab and rest of the Muslim world and we shall soon see a mushrooming of small rogue states armed with nuclear capable missiles that would bedevil the rest of the non-Islamic world.

Even as organisations Islamic gangs would terrorize the world. Examples of such gangs are the Al Qaida, Hezbollah, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Muslim Brotherhood , Lashkar-e-Tayyaba, Harkat-ul-Mujahedeen, Hizb-ul-Mujahedeen, Jaish-e-Mohammedi, Abu Sayyaf, etc

Thus a victory for the Muslims over the rest would spell doomsday for humankind, it would mean the end of all technological progress. In fact, for the thinking species of Human beings, an Islamic victory would mean the end of meaningful human existence. A scenario, where we would still have our capability to think, to innovate and to progress; but we would not be allowed to use any of our human faculties. This would be even worse than the scenario had the Nazis won the 2nd World War.

This is the logical scenario in case of a victory for the Islamic Jehad over all non-Islamic people across the globe. In this scenario, the ultimate saviour of humanity would have to come forth from within Islam itself. A saviour who would repudiate Islam and re-establish a civilized human way of life.

But till then it would be a frightful existence under the twilight of Islam, with no hope for the future. It is for these reasons among others, why the rest of the world (including some modernized Muslims) look askance at the growing clout of the Muslim clergy over the Ummah i.e. the general Muslim populace. And the resultant growing disturbances that Muslims cause in areas where they live alongside non-Muslims - like Chechnya, Macedonia, Egypt (Coptic Christians), Southern Sudan, Ethiopia/Eritrea, Southern Philippines (Mindanao), Indonesia (Malaku), Kashmir (India), Israel, etc.

In fact even many modernized (non-Islamized) Muslims are scared to death to speak their mind about Islamic orthodoxy, even after having lived in the West for more than one generation.

But some time or the other one has to address these issues in the context of freedom of thought and action for a future liberal democratic society the world over; and in the larger context of saving human civilization from the mortal danger it faces today from the growing strength of Islamic Terrorism of JIHAD.
