AMERICAN MUSLIMS ISSUE FATWA AGAINST TERRORISM
Adnki ^ | September 27 | AKI/DAWN

Posted on 09/27/2005 6:54:58 AM PDT by RDTF

Washington D.C., 27 Sept. (AKI/DAWN) - North American Muslims have issued a religious edict or fatwa against extremism and terrorism to prevent disgruntled Muslims who might be tempted to use their religion to justify violence, says a pamphlet distributed at mosques and other religious places across the United States and Canada.The fatwa has been signed by representatives of more than 250 mosques and Islamic centres and endorsed by over 170 Muslim groups, leaders and institutions.

The American fatwa followed a fatwa issued in March by the Islamic Commission of Spain, which declared Osama bin Laden an apostate and urged other Muslims to denounce the al- Qaeda leader. In both the fatwas, Muslim clerics denounced terrorism in religious vocabulary, quoting from the Holy Quran and the Hadith to make their point.

“As Muslims, we must face up to our responsibility to clarify and advocate a faith-based, righteous and moral position with regard to this problem, especially when terrorist acts are perpetrated in the name of Islam,” said the pamphlet distributed by the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), the largest Muslim umbrella group in this region.

Speaking at ISNA’s annual convention earlier this month, US public diplomacy chief Karen Hughes praised denunciation of violence by Muslim groups as “much welcomed”.

“Those are the words the entire world needs to hear,” she said.

Hughes was also urged by 30 Muslim leaders to give American Muslims more influence over US foreign policy.

Terrorism and Islamic radicalism is a threat to immigration. Why risk the program of colonization when with a little patience you can have it all? Long before Muslims become a majority they will be able to influence domestic and foreign policy, all they have to do is make sure the natives are kept quiet while the process of colonization continues. The really stupid thing about this is that ending the colonialism is the last thing they have to worry about. So deeply ingrained is self-loathing genocidal racism among the western elite that this group could call for more terrorism and openly brag they will destroy the nation in the future with their numbers and nothing would be done about it by our rotten leadership. Ending Muslim immigration would also upset the Arabs and others and limit the ability of our leaders to play the big-shots in the international arena. What is the existence of the nation compared to that? Who cares what happens in the future, how does that impact us? The disastrous '65 immigration bill was passed in large part because Congress thought the existing immigration laws made them look bad in the eyes of the "international community" and thus limited their ability to play the international game. They put more value on that then on what it might do to the nation.

Even in the better late than never category, does this mean that Michael Graham gets his job back?

[ What is it in the koran that tells muslims, when in the land of infidels, or when outnumbered, lie to the infidels? ]

The Prophet Muhammad said, "Lying is wrong, except in three things: the lie of a man to his wife to make her content with him; a lie to an enemy, for war is deception; or a lie to settle trouble between people" (Qu'ran, 6.459).

At a maximum, they are around 2500 years late doing this.

Just curious as to how you figure 2500 years?

Hmmmm, so lying is bad to them, unless they want to lie, then it's ok.

AUSTRALIA ISSUES FATWA LOL!

Anti-terror laws raise 'police state' concerns
Muslim and legal groups say the Federal Government's new counter-terrorism laws will unfairly target the Muslim community and could lead to Australia becoming a "police state".

The new security measures allow for terror suspects to be held for up to 14 days without charge and the monitoring of suspects for 12 months through a tracking device.

The new laws will also make inciting terrorist attacks an offence.

The premiers of Queensland and New South Wales say they will examine the new anti-terror laws.

Anjad Mehboob, chief executive of the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils, believes it is a step backwards for Australia and the Muslim community.

"We feel that this is going to drive people who might be contemplating acts of violence and terrorism underground," he said...

It seems even Mehboob admits the shoe fits. Poor mooselimbs, they are no longer free to practice the violent tenets of their "religion."

"We feel that this is going to drive people who might be contemplating acts of violence and terrorism underground"

He actually said this out loud? LOL!

***Cue the customary islamic whining about "oppression" and "humiliation"...***

Yep, he sure did! Obviously, prior to the new laws taking effect, 'people contemplating acts of violence and terrorism' felt free to operate OPENLY in Australia.
BOO HOO! bwaaaahhhhh...

IT'S JUST NOT FAIR!

“As Muslims, we must face up to our responsibility to clarify and advocate a faith-based, righteous and moral position with regard to this problem, especially when terrorist acts are perpetrated in the name of Islam,” said the pamphlet distributed by the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), the largest Muslim umbrella group in this region. "

ISNA is as bad as CAIR.

"In a news report put out by Indianapolis’s WTHR 13, counter-terrorism expert, Steven Emerson, is quoted as saying, “ISNA has sponsored extremists, racists, people who call for Jihad against the United States.” And the report itself stated, “We found about a dozen charities, organizations or individuals under federal scrutiny for possible ties to terrorism that are linked in some way to ISNA – ties sources tell us have also placed ISNA under the federal microscope. ISNA has provided convention booth space and helped raise money for a number of Islamic charities later linked to terrorism by the federal government….”

" This is because the Islamic Society of North America is a front for the promotion of Saudi Arabia's Wahhabi political, doctrinal and theological infrastructure in the United States and Canada. Established by the Saudi-funded Muslim Students Association, ISNA has for years sought to marginalize leaders of the Muslim faith who do not support the Wahhabists' strain of Islamofascism, and, through sponsorship of propaganda and mosques, is pursuing a strategic goal of eventually dominating Islam in America.


ISNA provides indoctrination materials to about 1,100 of an estimated 2,500 mosques on the North American continent. Through its affiliate, the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT) — a Saudi government-backed organization created to fund Islamist enterprises in North America — it reportedly holds the mortgages of between 50 and 79 percent of those mosques. Through this device, ISNA exerts ideological as well as theological influence over what is preached and taught in these institutions and their schools."
