Drawing U.S. Crowds With Anti-Islam Message

FORT WORTH — Brigitte Gabriel bounced to the stage at a Tea Party convention last fall. She greeted the crowd with a loud Texas “Yee-HAW,” then launched into the same gripping personal story she has told in hundreds of churches, synagogues and conference rooms across the United States:

As a child growing up a Maronite Christian in war-torn southern Lebanon in the 1970s, Ms. Gabriel said, she had been left lying injured in rubble after Muslims mercilessly bombed her village. She found refuge in Israel and then moved to the United States, only to find that the Islamic radicals who had terrorized her in Lebanon, she said, were now bent on taking over America.

“America has been infiltrated on all levels by radicals who wish to harm America,” she said. “They have infiltrated us at the C.I.A., at the F.B.I., at the Pentagon, at the State Department. They are being radicalized in radical mosques in our cities and communities within the United States.”

Through her books, media appearances and speeches, and her organization, ACT! for America, Ms. Gabriel has become one of the most visible personalities on a circuit of self-appointed terrorism detectors who warn that Muslims pose an enormous danger within United States borders.

Representative Peter T. King, Republican of Long Island, will conduct hearings Thursday in Washington on a similar theme: that the United States is infiltrated by Muslim radicals. Mr. King was the first guest last month on a new cable television show that Ms. Gabriel co-hosts with Guy Rodgers, the executive director of ACT! and a Republican consultant who helped build the Christian Coalition, once the most potent political organization on the Christian right.

Ms. Gabriel, 46, who uses a pseudonym, casts her organization as a nonpartisan, nonreligious national security group.

Even the long dead madman they call Prophet is dangerous so long as even one beguiled Arab—or just plain old deceived
individual who submits to that bloody religion from Hell — the danger of Islam is as old as the seduction in the Garden.
The seed born of Hagar will be heard by God -but those who defile the land by the shedding of innocent blood will be
judged by GOD.And we are given the command to pray for the Peace of Jerusalem.

Bambi views himself as a Muslim leader, and therefore normal Muslim things don’t apply to him. It is well known that the Saudi royals and in fact those of every other Muslim country drink like fishes (nothing but the most expensive libations, of course) and are exempt from a lot of the dietary and dress rules.

Being a caliph will not interfere in any way with Obama’s lavish dinners, his golf games, his sexual proclivities, or anything else that he features.
