When a report challenging our national security policy of ignoring Islamic supremacism through Islamic law...was released during a Capitol Hill press conference on Wednesday (disclosure: I was one of the co-authors), representatives from the Congressional Muslim Staffers Association (CMSA) were among the chief critics. This group, which has been briefing both Democrat and Republican congressional leadership in recent months that there is nothing inherently violent in Islamic law, has a very poor history of embracing Islamic radicals and even Al-Qaeda terrorists. Immediately after 9/11, the CMSA began holding Friday afternoon prayer services on Capitol Hill. Who did they choose to lead them in their prayers? Al-Qaeda sheikh Anwar al-Aulaqi, who is currently subject to a kill or capture order issued by President Obama...
Identified in that clip listening to the Al-Qaeda cleric are Nihad Awad, executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR); then-CAIR Communications specialist Randall “Ismail” Royer, who is currently serving a 20-year federal prison sentence on terrorism charges; and sitting directly beside Royer is CMSA founder and former president Jameel Alim Johnson.
The invitation to an Al-Qaeda cleric who already had been tied to two of the 9/11 hijackers (as reported in the 9/11 Commissio) to lead CMSA prayers is not the only troubling aspect of Jameel Johnson’s congressional record. In December 2007, I reported on an Islamic conference on Capitol Hill that had been scheduled by Johnson as chief of staff for Congressman Gregory Meeks. The conference was canceled at the last minute by the House of Representatives Sergeant-at-Arms when it was discovered that the conference scheduled by Johnson was to feature a long list of Islamic radicals, some of whom were known to be on the terror watch list.
So when the CMSA leadership squeal to the media about anyone offering an alternative view to our failed foreign and domestic policy of submitting to Islamic radicalism, we only need look at the record of CMSA as an organization, and its leadership as individuals, giving radicals and terrorists, such as Anwar Al-Aulaqi, their voice on Capitol Hill.
But the infiltration of our highest government institutions is not limited to the CMSA...
Islam is a gutter religion that needs to be wiped off the face of the earth, starting in America.
But now, while Muslims extremists with ties to terrorist groups are setting up shop next to the politicians, it's just a big Yawn.
I don’t have a problem with them practicing their religion on their own soil, miserable as it is for everyone but the imams. I do have a problem with them bringing it here. I think they should be returned to their native countries and “contained,” that is, not allowed to travel to Western countries.
Their Friday prayers began a couple of weeks after 9/11. Very in your face, I thought.
The 1st amendment is going to have to be modified at some point to excluse protections for islam. It’s inevitable.
Liberals have fallen in love with the most fascistic, misogynistic, homo-hating, irrational cult in the world.
it’s not even a religion it’s an ideology of intolerance and hate.
Why the hell are we having to put up with muslims here.
Draw a picture and your life is in danger.
Burn a book on your own property ypour life is in danger.
say anything about it then then all hell breaks loose in some circles.
This is the west and America and muslims need to be told to either live by our laws, stop protecting and promoting violence or piss off.
Yes media and so called press, your islamphobia and name calling isn’t working any more . More and more folks are speaking up and have had enough of yours and their crap
Sounds a lot like the McCarthy era and communism doesn’t it?
lets get this right about the ideology of intolerance and hate..
We have our laws and way of life, theirs does not conform to ours but looks to overthrow our laws.
They seek to bring their laws here and thus it is a political ideology so why are we still having people here saying it is a religion and saying they have a first amendment?
Question to all
If I never gave my kids food or water from first light to last light for weeks is that classed as child abuse?
If so then why is it that these muslims kids have not been taken away from their muslim parents during ramaddan?
Anyone else who did this would have visits from child services but no muslims are the most protected class right now even in front of homsoexuals
For the lefty trolls on here then you defend this crap while they seek to kill homosexuals, take women rights away, bring stoning, mutilation etc.
You’re sick.
Of course... they are a death cult that worships satan.
LLS
Right.
Can you imagine a group of “moderate” Nazi’s or “moderate” Japanese Hirohito lovers as congressional staff during WWII?
Just as there was no “moderate” position in Nazi-ism, there is none for ischlam either. The only difference is that ischlam has been able to hide behind their status as a religion and effectively obfuscate this fact to the weak-minded.
Italy just cancelled that status. We need to do the same.
liberals say they want the homosexual agenda, women rights, more understanding and yet they support a barbaric ideology of intolerance and hate.
If they support muslims then they too support taking away rights, death etc, they cannot have it both ways no matter how left they are.
If I ever hear anyone saying they have no problem with islam then I point out very quickly and forcefully that they must also support taking rights away, stoning, etc because that is wht islam calls for plus if they read the hadith and koran they would see over a 100 verses calling for death to non muslims, Jews are pigs, lie to non believers to promote islam, treat women like crap etc
It appears to be incompatible with this belief system for adherents to denounce what in America would be considered against the law.
This alone should send up the red flags.
The religion eternally attached to governance, is also incompatible with our representative Republic.
Therefor, anyone with a brain is going to know that Islam
cannot be allowed to flourish inside our borders, as it is in direct conflict with the God given rights enumerated in the Constitution of the United States.
A Religion that is not separated from the state cannot be allowed to flourish inside these same borders.
A religion that seeks the destruction not only of infidels but the system under which they live, cannot be allowed to exist inside the borders of any country that is not Muslim.
To do so will ultimately result in the destruction of the culture, and the death or captivity of all living.
It is the only sane solution!
Moses knew this thousands of years ago.
The twelve tribes of Israel never learned,
there are ten lost tribes attesting to
their lack of insight and the other two
were scattered among all the peoples of
the world.
The above has somewhat less to do with Islam
itself, but with incompatible beliefs and culture.
It still spells ultimate destruction or captivity.
This explains why it’s even WORSE than I describe it in the piece below and WHY we’re hearing so much PC BS from Capitol Hill offices: FIRE THEM ALL!!!!! These people embrace a political system (sorry, but it AIN’T a “RELIGION”) completely incompatible with our Constitution.
****************
What is to be done about the HILL RATS? These are the allegedly “professional” staffers who are so named because after the election their current boss loses, they scurry like rats to a new member – ANY MEMBER (his politics frequently don’t matter) – just to remain close to the power. Most are flaming liberals and, after the “experienced” staffer shows the new guy where the john is, because they have been up there for decades, far too many of these new members rely on them for how to vote and get along in the thoroughly corrupt system of “you scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours” that has caused the mess in which we now find ourselves.
IT GETS WORSE!
Let’s say the new guy needs an “expert” on tax policy. Well, son-of-a-gun, the professional staffer JUST HAPPENS to have a college chum who works at the IRS! Need an “expert” on education policy. Darned if that secretary he just hired doesn’t just have an old teacher friend who works over at the Department of Education!
NOW YOU KNOW WHY THE MORE THINGS CHANGE, THE MORE THEY STAY THE SAME – ESPECIALLY IN MALFUNCTION JUNCTION.
Looks like we will also need TENURE LIMITS on the Hill Rats with stiff penalties for breaking the rules!
I recently heard Gingrich tell Hannity that—horrors — the alleged Health Care Bill was almost certainly written at 3 am by 25 year-old liberal staffers, groggy on beer and pizza. Not sure why that was so shocking. HELL, that’s how nearly ALL the so-called legislation has been done up there for decades. It’s why there are two things one should never watch being made: SAUSAGE AND LAWS.
One of the KEY THINGS we all need to do BEFORE we get behind a new candidate to replace the 8 term retread who has sold us out nearly every term up there is to INSIST THAT HE DRAW HIS KEY STAFFERS FROM LOCAL FOLKS WHO MAY STILL HAVE A GRASP ON REALITY OUT HERE IN FLYOVER COUNTRY — THEN HOLD HIS FEET TO THE FIRE ON THAT PLEDGE — OR REPLACE HIM NEXT TIME!
Sadly, it’s the ONLY WAY THINGS WILL CHANGE UP THERE!!
Therefore, you can not let any criticism of Islam, or any of its tenant, go unchallenged.
Any other question?
Then there is this:
A week ago I got this message from our contact form from a woman I’ll call “Maryanne”:
My gut feeling with all that I have read and videos I have seen that there is NO such thing as a Moderate Muslim.
Tell me if I am wrong.
God bless Sir and keep up the great writings.
*Sigh.* I responded:
You’re wrong. As Geert Wilders says, “There are moderate Muslims, but there is no moderate Islam.” Just as with all religions there are many, many people who identify with the religion but don’t take it seriously and don’t practice it. Think of all the Christians and Jews who call themselves such but don’t actually do as their religions say. Islam is the same. Probably a majority of so-called Muslims are marginal, cultural Muslims who are not malicious.
