The following is a flyer released by the United American Committee. Islamic extremism in America is such a strong threat to the people, and to the American way of life. The citizens of America are standing up. Here is a good flyer, good to print out, make copies of, and can be placed on car windows in your area.
You can download this flyer: in Adobe: http://www.unitedamericancommittee.org/flyer.pdf or in Word http://www.unitedamericancommittee.org/flyer.doc
United States of America, one nation,
under ALLAH" Is THIS the pledge
you want your grandchildren to say?
IT WILL BE! Unless you
TAKE ACTION TODAY!
THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE!
who wish to harm YOU!
I think it would be better if it said " I pledge allegience to the Koran" but not bad as is.
"Revolution" meaning what? - exactly...
The United American Committee is more like a political movement than an organization, the flyer is intentionally vague and if people are really interested in the UAC they can look it up and will find the website www.UnitedAmericanCommittee.org
It's good because if a "bad guy" or lefty that doesn't like it gets a hold of it they won't be tempted to go to the site. And it creates familiarity with the UAC
Anyone see todays post on Jihadwatch.org about the United American Committee? It has the UAC platform on there http://www.jihadwatch.org/archives/007421.php
>>> the flyer is intentionally vague
What is this movement promoting?
Anyone have ideas for a "northern" edition before we start singing an anthem that starts with 'Oh, Koranada"?
UAC promotes awareness of Islamic extremist activities in the U.S., and tries to pass what is laid out in the UAC platform by putting pressure on Washington to confront the issue of Islamic extremism in America
Platform was posted on Jihadwatch.org this morning, and is at http://www.unitedamericancommittee.org/platform.htm
1. Our goal is the unity of all Americans, against the threats of Islamic extremism which face our nation and a goal of ensuring a secure future of America. We will accomplish our goals set forth through the following actions: Educate our society on the natures of our enemies. Inform the American people on issues which must be resolved. Influence and encourage the actions of the President and Congress to accomplish our goals.
2. Our goal is that freedom for all religious faiths continues, insofar as they do not endanger the American people, or the existence of democracy.
3. Our goal is the education of the American people regarding the philosophies and activities of our enemies which are operating from within the United States borders. Therefore any terrorist activities found to be operating within our borders should be brought to the attention of the American people. The citizens must be informed at all times. Any threat to the American people and to American democracy shall be dealt with immediately. Furthermore, it is the duty of every American to report to authorities any activities observed which may inflict harm upon the American people.
4. We encourage the judicial system of the United States to enact the following in regards to terrorist activities: Terrorist activities by those who wish to inflict injury of the common welfare of the United States and the American populace, who are captured while in the process of committing a terrorist attack as defined by the patriot act, shall not be allowed to continue spreading his/her ideology in any matter, but shall be dealt with by capitol punishment, regardless of creed or race. For their accomplices, no parole shall ever be granted to those who have plotted or assisted in the plot against the common welfare of America and the American people.
5. Those who reside in America who are aliens, whether documented or undocumented, and who are not citizens, who are from countries with governments which have known ties to Islamic extremism, shall not only be subject to American laws, but shall be subject to strict immigration laws. Current immigration laws must be enforced to the full, and must not be restricted. Any violation of these laws must be dealt with by immediate deportation.
Those coming from countries whose governments have known ties to Islamic extremism, wishing to gain entry to America shall be closely scrutinized, and access shall only be granted after a lengthy process of research and analysis of the individual case.
6. Our nation's security shall come first and foremost. The United American Committee is dedicated to protecting the American people, and allowing them to live safe and comfortable lives, without the threats of Islamic extremism and terrorist activities. We feel a key to accomplishing this is by maintaining a secure border. Our goal is an increase in border security along both our northern and southern borders, as well as an increase in funding to Coast Guard and Immigration agencies so that they may work efficiently and that the American people may live in safety.
7. We encourage laws to be implemented stating that no organization of any kind deemed to be promoting ideals which endanger the American populace shall receive funding by any foreign government or other foreign source. We encourage the United States government to closely scrutinize the funding of any organization from a foreign source.
8. Our goal is for America to cease dependency on imported oil from countries tied to Islamic extremism. We encourage the United States government to expand our importation of fuels from allied democratic nations, as well as to decrease exportation of American oil. The United American Committee also encourages automotive corporations to pursue alternative fuels in order to help decrease the funding of foreign regimes which have known ties to Islamic extremism.
9. The United American Committee believes education is a key to a bright future. We ask that the education system of America shall teach our youth the facts, and the true nature of our extremist enemies. Our educators shall not feel pressure to withhold vital information for fear of reprimand due to political correctness. Our youth are our nation's future. We must hold their education to the highest level of importance.
10. Our goal is to encourage Muslim Americans to embrace democratic ideals, and the American way of life. All citizens are equal and are entitled to the rights granted by the United States constitution. These rights may only be revoked when an individual, regardless of creed or race, commits an act against his/her fellow American or against the American populace, whether by action or intent. We encourage American Muslims to denounce the ideals of our extremist enemies, and to stand against our enemy's terrorist actions.
Flyer, what are you up to now?
The Free Muslims Coalition is the one that confronted Tancredo.
Thanks,
I don't generally like 'vagueness' rather I prefer upfront and blunt. (Vagueness often means that there is something to hide)
I did go to your website however and was happy to see that you have your platform and agenda spelled out.
I'm not 'sold' but it is interesting....
we're trying to do something, all too many people just sit back and accept that a nuke may go off in one of our cities....
Yes, and that means?
Tancredo is so great, we need more politicians like him. 'If they attack us....well, then we should nuke mecca' :)
I guess you'd have to ask Tancredo as I was not privy to what went on at their meeting.
See the problem? We don't need no steenkin judicial enactavists.
Press Corner
Free Muslims meet Congressman Tancredo about Bombing Mecca Comment.
July 27, 2005
Free Muslims Coalition
(Washington, DC July 26) The Free Muslims Coalition (FMC), a national Muslim organization with 15 chapter, will meet this Wednesday with Congressman Tom Tancredo of Colorado about a recent comment in which he suggested that the United States should bomb Islamic Holy sites in Mecca as a deterrent against the terrorists.
Following the congressman’s statements, he was immediately criticized by the White House and the Muslim leadership world wide. In response to the criticism, Spokesman Will Adams stated "We have an enemy with no uniform, no state, who looks like you and me and only emerges right before an attack. How do we go after someone like that?"
The Free Muslim Coalition (FMC) is not interested in joining the chorus of Muslim organizations who attacked Congressman Tancredo. Instead, we intend on having an honest discussion about resolving this controversy. FMC understands that Congressman Tancredo represents the frustration of millions of Americans who on a daily basis watch in horror as dozens of innocent people are murdered in the name of Islam.
FMC will convey to Congressman Tancredo that many Muslims share his frustration about the senseless killing of innocent people in the name of our beloved religion. The Free Muslims have said time and time again that the war on terror is more than a military battle, it is also an ideological battle and only Muslims can defeat the cancer of terrorism and extremism that is spreading throughout the Muslim world. The Free Muslims recognize that the Muslim leadership in America and abroad has failed in challenging and discrediting the ideology that leads to extremism and terrorism but we are now trying to reverse our past mistakes by aggressively challenging the terrorists and their evil ideology.
FMC understands that Congressman Tancredo was only speaking hypothetically based on the theory that America must threaten the terrorists with what matters to them most. However, what congressman Tancredo does not understand is that the terrorists don’t care if the United States destroys their holy places. The terrorists are heartless criminals and as far as they are concerned the holy places are just buildings that can be rebuilt. In fact, they will use Congressman Tancredo’s comments as more ammunition for their arsenal. Most likely, the terrorists will take Congressman Tancredo’s words out of context to gain more recruits by convincing gullible Muslims that they are defending them from “crusaders” who want to “destroy Islam.”
FMC president Kamal Nawash will ask Congressman Tancredo to join Muslims who want nothing more that to eliminate the terrorists and the ideology that leads to extremism and terrorism. Nawash said that “Jews, Christians, Muslims and the entire civilized world must join forces to defeat this evil that hides behind religion to justify the murder of innocent people.”
