Cat Stevens & Al-Qaeda
In May 1999, Stevens/Islam was the keynote speaker at the “Second ‘United for Al-Quds Conference.’” Al-Quds is the Islamic name for Jerusalem. The conference was sponsored by the “Who’s Who” of America’s radical Muslim groups which support terror and refuse to denounce HAMAS and Hezbollah (which murdered over 300 American marines and civilians in the 1980s, while they slept).
One of the main sponsors of this conference was American Muslims for Global Peace and Justice. The group, which spearheads the Muslim boycott of Starbucks (because its CEO is Jewish), was founded and run by the late Mahboob Khan, who raised money for Al-Qaeda at the Santa Clara mosque he founded and headed. In the late ‘90s, Khan twice brought Al-Qaeda deputy Ayman Al-Zawahiri, himself, into the US on a fake passport, to raise the money at the mosque. (Incredibly, Khan’s son, Suhail Khan, is a Bush political appointee and chief legal counsel to the Federal Highway Administration, where he has access to transport schedules for major weaponry and hazardous materials.)
True to form, Stevens, in his keynote speech at the conference, entitled “Jerusalem: The First and Last Scene of Faith’s Struggle” (a speech about Jihad for Jerusalem), said the Jews “were lowered to abject levels of disgrace and dishonor.”
Cat Stevens’ Map of Hate
Cat Stevens’ map of the world looks just like Al-Qaeda’s, HAMAS’, and Islamic Jihad’s map of the world. His website’s map lists every country – EXCEPT, there’s no Israel. Instead, there’s a new country, called “Holyland” in its place. Click on the blank map on Cat Stevens’ personal website to reveal the hidden state names on his “revised” planet. Hmmmm . . . . Let me guess: the new Prime Minister of “Holyland” is name Abu-something or other. Stevens calls this “small kindness.”
Cat Stevens & Terrorist Cronies, Ad Nauseam
In September 1999, Stevens delivered the five-time daily call to prayer at the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) annual conference. At the event, he and NBA Star Tariq Abdul-Wahad attacked America’s freedoms.
Saudi-funded ISNA is at the forefront of promoting extremist Wahhabi Islam and owns and controls at least 27% of America’s mosques and many American Islamic schools through an ISNA subsidiary, the Islamic Trust. Stevens was invited for this honor by ISNA’s then-chief, Muzammil Siddiqi, a prominent, radical Muslim who openly supports martyrdom, jihad, and making the US a Muslim country. Siddiqi opposes Muslims serving in the U.S. military and used ISNA to raise money for HAMAS’ Political Director Marzook and the Islamic Jihad terrorist group.

I liked Cat Stevens at a young age only because I thought he was cute. I think Peace Train was one of the first few songs I learned in grade school music class (teacher liked all guitar folk songs...). At the time I learned Peace Train, of course I didn't know who Cat was, but in a few years I did. That's when I began thinking he (and a thousand other singers) was cute.
I was stunned to learn Cat was a muslim convert after I watched a tv program about him sometime shortly after 911.
Now, this article you posted, well, it is all very sad.
All I have of his music is an old cassette. It stores nicely in a can of pork and beans!
