Maybe we should change this around: Muslims be nice to Westerners, or we will blow you up.

To: Mr. Mojo; All

This is why we need to back up & support this guy, Dr. Zuhdi Jasser. He is trying to establish an Islamic Reformation, much like the Christian one that occurred oh so long ago.

M. ZUHDI JASSER, M.D.

M. Zuhdi Jasser, M.D. is the Founder and President of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy (AIFD) and is the author of A Battle for the Soul of Islam: An American Muslim Patriot’s Fight to Save His Faith (Simon & Schuster, June 2012). On March 20, 2012, Dr. Jasser was appointed by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) to the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) where he currently serves as a Commissioner.

A devout Muslim, Dr. Jasser founded AIFD in the wake of the 9/11 attacks on the United States as an effort to provide an American Muslim voice advocating for the preservation of the founding principles of the United States Constitution, liberty and freedom, through the separation of mosque and state. Dr. Jasser is a first generation American Muslim whose parents fled the oppressive Baath regime of Syria in the mid-1960’s for American freedom. He is leading the fight to shake the hold that the Muslim Brotherhood and their network of American Islamist organizations and mosques seek to exert on organized Islam in America.

Dr. Jasser earned his medical degree on a U.S. Navy scholarship at the Medical College of Wisconsin in 1992. He served 11 years as a medical officer in the U. S. Navy. His tours of duty included Medical Department Head aboard the U.S.S. El Paso which deployed to Somalia during Operation Restore Hope; Chief Resident at Bethesda Naval Hospital; and Staff Internist for the Office of theAttending Physician to the U. S. Congress. He is a recipient of theMeritorious Service Medal. Dr. Jasser is a respected physician currently in private practice in Phoenix, Arizona specializing in internal medicine and nuclear cardiology. He is a Past-President of the Arizona Medical Association.

AIFD seeks to counter political Islam the ideology that fuels radical Islamists. AIFD’s current passions include the Muslim Liberty Project(MLP) and involvement in the American Islamic Leadership Coalition (AILC). The Muslim Liberty Project seeks to instill the ideas of liberty into young Muslim adults in order to inoculate them against the viral threat of political Islam. The project brought together its first class of Muslim Youth in March 2011 with tremendous success. AILC is a broad based coalition of diverse Muslim organizations that provide a stark alternative to the domestic and global network of Islamist organizations.

Dr. Jasser is also actively involved in the Syrian-American community as the co-founder of Save Syria Now! which was formed by Americans of Syrian descent to put pressure on the United States to call for immediate action to end the regime of Bashar Assad of Syria and to help bring true liberty to the people of Syria. Dr. Jasser briefed members of the U.S. House of Representatives on the situation in Syria in July 2011 and again on June 25, 2013.

Dr. Jasser regularly briefs members of the House and Senate on the threat of Political Islam. Dr. Jasser testified before the United States House of Representatives Committee on Homeland Security on March 10, 2011 on “The Extent of Radicalization in the American Muslim Community and that Community’s Response “ and again on June 20, 2012 on “The American Muslim Response to Hearings on Radicalization within their Community.” On June 24, 2011 he testified before the Constitution Subcommittee of the Judiciary Committee of the United States House of Representatives on the importance ofHR 963 “The See Something, Say Something” Act of 2011. Dr. Jasser testified before the United States House of Representatives, Committee on Foreign Affairs, Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health, Global Human Rights, and International Organizations on “Anti-Semitism: A Growing Threat to All Faiths” on February 27, 2013 and again on December 10, 2013 on “Human Rights Abuses in Egypt.”

Dr. Jasser is an internationally recognized expert in the contest of ideas against politicalIslam and American Islamist organizations. He has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, The Washington Times, The New York Post, The Dallas Morning News , CNN, CBS, Fox News Channel, MSNBC and BBC in addition to nationally syndicated radio programs. He has spoken at hundreds of national and international events including universities, places of worship, and government venues.

Dr. Jasser was presented with the 2007 Director’s Community Leadership Award by the Phoenix office of the FBI and was recognized as a “Defender of the Home Front” at the annual Keeper of the Flame Dinner of the Center for Security Policy in 2008. Dr. Jasser is a contributing writer to a number of books and is featured in four documentaries America at Risk, Islam v Islamists, A Question of Honor and The Third Jihad.

“Petraeus is a fool. I knew that from the time he issued a call for the pastor in FL to refrain from burning the Koran claiming it would cost American lives.”

Petraeus is no fool. He was simply managing his career. To advance in the George W. Bush and Barack Obama administrations it was necessary to tow the party line which is Islam is the religion of peace. Muslim immigration accelerated under Bush, the president who held the hand of the Saudi prince after 9/11, and has continued to advance under Barack Obama who was educated as a Muslim in Indonesia.

Petraeus is a political animal playing the game. His public pronouncements now are all about currying favor with the media, the intellectual elites, and the liberal politicians who can arrange lucrative book deals, board memberships, speaking engagements, and consulting contracts. In his world, having been forced to resign in humiliation, he can only eat the crumbs off the table by prostituting himself.

This man is an opportunist, not a patriot.

Actually, that was not for off the mark...he’ll sell out anyone or anything.

At some point you have to draw the line and be prepared to enforce it. Islam must understand that we will not capitulate to them, nor will we tolerate their tantrums to coerce us into dhimmitude. We can either live quietly, and they can STFU, or they can die. The choice is not ours...it’s theirs.

Islam is nothing more than a scam created by a degenerate to give him license to indulge his perversions.

In the 1500s, the muslims invaded India and murdered 400 million Hindus.

It must have been something they said.

Brilliant.

Thank you for that information about Dr. Zuhdi Jasser. He’s a true American hero, not to mention awesomely courageous. He deserves tremendous respect and study. If Islam is to survive, it will be along the lines of his teachings. Otherwise, Muslims will be wiped off the face of the Earth - by their own insane ultimatum. The only thing keeping them alive even now is that most people just cannot believe they mean what they say. But that will pass, and when it does, there won’t be a single stone they can hide under.

“David Petraeus said increasing anti-Muslim rhetoric in the United States threatens to drive more “moderate” Muslims to terrorism”

Be nice to bank robbers or they may rob more banks.

Be nice to rapists are they may commit more rapes.

Be nice to murders or them may commit more murders.

Be nice to wife-beaters or they may beat more wives.

Makes sense to me.

To: Mr. Mojo
In an op-ed for The Washington Post published Friday, former CIA Director David Petraeus said increasing anti-Muslim rhetoric in the United States threatens to drive more “moderate” Muslims to terrorism.

If a "moderate" can be driven to terrorism by "anti-Muslim rhetoric", then he wasn't a moderate in the first place.

Odd, isn't it, that nobody seems concerned about stopping "anti-Christian" rhetoric, lest it provoke us into terrorism?
