***Featured post: Muslim Brotherhood Resources***

The Muslim Brotherhood (i.e., Ikhwan Arabic: إخوان‎) is an Islamic supremacist organization and movement founded in Egypt in 1928 shortly after the Islamic Ottoman Empire (hegemony) ended in 1924.  It was started by Hasan Al-Banna and grew into a global Islamist movement with a presence in the United States.  Most members and supporters in America keep their identity hidden.   It was outlawed in Egypt for a number of years because of their supremacist and sometimes radicals views until the uprising there in 2011.  I suspect these recent "freedom" revolutions will be used by the Brotherhood for their own benefit and advancement by appealing to all who want freedom (but many do not have) claiming they also support freedom but it is an Islamic supremacist organization.

Piers Morgan missed important opportunities interviewing Imam Suhaib Webb

Last night Imam Suhaib Webb of the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center (ISBCC) was interviewed by Piers Morgan on CNN.  The ISBCC is an affiliate of the Islamic Society of Boston where the Boston Marathon suspects attended on occasion.  I just had to make note of some of the big opportunities Piers Morgan missed where he could of asked Webb some rather relevant followup questions:

Piers Morgan interview with Imam Suhaib Webb April 22, 2013:

Joining me is Imam Webb of the Islamic Society of the Boston Cultural Center. Welcome to you, Imam Webb. You're actually imam of a local mosque affiliated with the one that Tamerlan Tsarnaev attended. From all that you've now gleaned about what went on with him, were we seeing somebody who was being radicalized very quickly?

IMAM SUHAIB WEBB, ISLAMIC SOCIETY OF BOSTON CULTURAL CENTER: I'm not sure I can answer that question but definitely someone standing up in a Friday prayer and questioning a preacher who is talking about Martin Luther King Jr. might draw some flags but I don't think would necessitate calling law enforcement.

MORGAN: Now, he made two protests on two different incidents. He branded people a kafir, a non-believer. Clearly he was getting quite intense about his religion.
 
WEBB: Yes, I think that's where a qualified scholar or leader would need to step in and talk to him and see kind of what his mindset was, and from there, make a call on kind of what direction he was taking his religiosity.

Missed Opportunity:  I believe he called the Imam kafir for comparing Martin Luther King to the Islamic prophet, Mohammad, isn't that right?   Did the Imam talk to him about this outburst?  Have you spoken to the imam at your sister mosque about this?

MORGAN: What has been the reaction in the mosques, both yours and the one of course that Tamerlan Tsarnaev attended?

WEBB: With regards to what?

MORGAN: Well, to what's happened. Obviously he's been --

WEBB: Our reaction to what?

MORGAN: Your reaction to the discovery that somebody attending one of the mosques has been the perpetrator of this appalling bombing.

WEBB: Well, I think first and foremost as Bostonians, our hearts and prayers are with the community. And then there's a sense of anger and frustration that someone who would frequent one of our faith institutions would carry out such acts, so people seem to be very angry and upset with what he's done.

MORGAN: Is there any new system that you can put in place to raise more warning flags about characters like Tamerlan? Because it just seems to people that he's been plotting this in his head by being inspired by Islamic fundamentalists on videos that he;s found on the Internet, to commit an appalling act of terror, and yet he's been going to this mosque --

WEBB: Indeed.

MORGAN: -- hanging around with people. Somebody must have spotted that he was getting more intense, potentially dangerous, because we know the Russian authorities were wary enough about him to contact the FBI.

WEBB: Indeed, but I have to say, I don't think most mosques or churches or synagogues are law enforcement agencies. They don't have the same access that they would have.

Missed Opportunity:  Actually, those who attend a mosque together on a regular basis may have more access. When he called the Imam a kafir he revealed a bit of his fundamentalist views. Do you agree? Could this be a sign of radicalization or rigid fundamentalist believes?  Did his outburst cause concern?  It's been reported Tamerlan was in company of another Boston area Muslim convert by the name of Mihsa who practiced a strict form of Islam. Do you know who this person is?  I believe he has a red beard.   I wonder, Imam Webb, - do you advise your fellow Muslims to contact the FBI if they see something odd?  Does you mosque discuss radical Islam and its danger? Do you go over the warning sign?  Or, do you tell them not to talk to the FBI, say as CAIR does?

WEBB: But I think what's important is that the mosque here in Boston, the other mosque didn't appeal to his theology, so I think the way to address that -- there was an interesting Harvard study that said only 2 percent of the imams worldwide who called for global jihad had actually degrees from Islamic educational institutions that are considered respectable. So I think one of the best ways is through properly trained scholars who can mediate and talk to people and see where they're coming from and try to address some of those radical ideas that they have. He wasn't radicalized in Boston. It appears now that he was radicalized online.

Missed Opportunity:  Say, what was the name of the Harvard Study?  What year was it done?

Missed Opportunity:  You said 2% of imams who call for global jihad had degrees from proper Islamic institutions. How many imams would you say this represents 10 - 100 - 1000?  How many imams in total have called for global jihad? You don't know?  Hummm... The study referred to 2% of the total, right?  It seems odd you don't know the total. Didn't the study mention the total?  Do you see this global call for jihad by imams as a major concern for most non-Muslims?  Shouldn't the Imams who disagree with the call for global jihad stand up?  What is being done collectively?  Can you give me an example of a written statement from a collective of Imams specifically denouncing the call for global jihad?  What?  What do you mean you can't?

Missed Opportunity:  I noticed (since I did some research) that you have on your own website (SuhaibWebb.com) a glowing review of a presentation given at a conference on th book about Jihad by the highly controversial martyrdom-approving Sunni cleric Yusef Quaradawi.  This presentation, by the way, is also on the Muslim Brotherhood's English Website Ikhwanwebb. Is this wise, Imam?

Missed opportunity:  Did you attend a fund-raiser a few days before 9/11 for Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin, otherwise known as H. Rapp Brown, who was convicted for killing a sheriff deputy?  Why were you there?  I read an FBI document about this fundraiser. Anwar Awlaki was there, as well, right?

MORGAN: Imam Webb, thank you for joining me.

WEBB: Thank you, sir.

End - Transcript from CNN

Last week, Webb was replaced (by Bretbart.com) as a speaker at the Boston Marathon Memorial Service the night before but Piers Morgan didn't bother to bring that up either. Another missed opportunity, Piers - geez. On the 21st, Suhaib Webb tweeted a link to this article stating. "They are liars."

There's just one problem, though, this very short article is accurate the best I can tell.  Webb was replaced the night before, he even tweeted about it. The Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center is linked to the Islamic Society of Boston and is referred to as the sister organization on the ISB website. Both are linked in the Islamic Society of North America (probably written in their constitution about their permanent affiliation to ISNA) who was named an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation terror-funding trial (documented court evidence). This was the largest Hamas terror-funding case to date.  There you go again, Piers, missing another opportunity.

Shame on you, Piers Morgan.

Boston Marathon bombers ID'd as two Muslim brothers from Chechnya!

Today we learned the perpetrators of pure evil at the Boston Marathon on Monday that resulted in the deaths of three precious lives and the wounding scores of others are two Muslim brothers from Chechnya who have been in the U.S. for about 10 years.  The older brother, Tamerlan Tsarneav, 26,  is now dead after a police shootout.  There's a massive manhunt for the younger brother, Dzhokar Tsarnaevc, 19.  Police warn those in Massachusetts he may have explosives and to stay indoors.

Here is a screen shot from Dzhokar's page at a Russian social networking site, Vkontakie (thanks JA).  Note he wrote that his world view is Islam:

A few hours after the FBI released the pictures of the suspect, a university police officer was shot and killed at MIT and a guard wounded after a car-jacking by the suspects which then led to a police chase with the brothers throwing out explosives at the police and the older brother being shot.

This is the 2nd successful jihadist-linked attack on American soil since 9/11.

Adam Soltani, Director of CAIR Oklahoma, whines on Iranian-owned TV about Michele Bachman!

Somehow, I completely missed this from last August when some paint balls found their way to a mosque door in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  I don't believe anyone was held accountable.  But, leave it to CAIR Oklahoma's new director, Adam Soltani, to find a voice on Iranian TV to complain:

"...Unfortunately there has been a lot of campaigns against Muslims recently in the media. One in particular is the smear campaign by Representative Michele Bachman that has targeted American Muslims who seek to contribute to the nation through public service,”  Adam Soltani, Director CAIR Oklahoma

I just wonder if Adam or any of the other victim claiming CAIR directors know how often churches in America are vandalized without much press, or contact with the FBI, or activating Christians community safety guides after claiming to be part of a smear campaign?  Think about it.  You can read or listen to the full interview with Adam Soltani here.

CAIR Oklahoma 2013 banquet keynote speaker is controversial Imam Johari Abdul-Malik!

On April 13th, CAIR Oklahoma will host their annual fund-raising banquet at the Oklahoma City Marriott (@OKCMarriott).

Recently, CAIR announceed the keynote speaker will be Imam Johari Abdul-Malik (right).  And, what a controversial imam he is!  Malik showed a glimmer of what is likely his Islamic supremacist ideology in 2004 at Dar al Hijrah, a controversial mosque located in Falls Church, VA., where he is the outreach director.  Malik proclaimed Islam in the USA will be America's first religion!

Abdul Malik:People even under the pressures that you and I know about, the deen of Islam is growing because people see even within all of this struggle it is better to be a Muslim under these conditions than to be a kaffir under any conditions... before Allah closes our eyes for the last time you will see Islam move from being the second largest religion in America-that's where we are now- to being the first religion in America

You can hear him in his own words here and read a little about the mosque where he works.

Imam Johari al-Malik worked with Anwar Awlaki who was an Imam at Dar al Hirhrah in 2001-2002.  Malik defended him many times here.  In 2011, Malik blamed an unsubstantiated torture claim as the reason Awlaki changed into a more radical Muslim.  However, the Investigative Project disputes how moderate Awlaki was while in America (see previous link).  Afterall, he did catch the attention of law enforcement before he left the U.S., right?  

Malik was reported to have said at a Muslim Brotherhood linked Islamic Association of Palestine meeting in 2001 (ref: previous link): 

I am gonna teach you now. You can blow up bridges, but you cannot kill people who are innocent on their way to work. You can blow up power supplies… the water supply, you can do all forms of sabotage and let the world know that we are doing it like this because they have a respect for the lives of innocent people.

There's that phrase "innocent people" again. Who decides who's guilty in Islam and therefore not innocent, anyway?  So far, I can't find the answer.

A FOIA document obtained by IPT says this about the Dar al Hirhrah mosque:

The Department of Treasury's Enforcement Communications System (TECS) records note that Dar al-Hijrah "is a mosque operating as a front for Hamas operatives in U.S.," "is associated with Islamic extremists," "has been under numerous investigations for financing and proving aid and comfort to bad orgs and members," has "been linked to numerous individuals linked to terrorism financing," and "has also been associated with encouraging fraudulent marriages."

You can read more about Dar al Hirjrah here.

Earlier this year, the primary Imam at Dar al Hirjrah, Sheik Shaker Elsayed, spoke about Muslim men - being the first in the Jihad line!  Watch and listen to his disturbing words here.

And for some odd reason, Malik wants youto know he is not a pacifist Muslim when he wrote on his blog:

Let me say from the outset that I’m not a pacifist; the Quranic injunctions provide the right to self-defense. 2:178 retaliation has been prescribed …“O you who believe! Retaliation is prescribed for you in the matter of the slain, the free for the free, and the slave for the slave, and the female for the female, but if any remission is made to any one by his (aggrieved) brother, then prosecution (for the bloodwit) should be made according to usage, and payment should be made to him in a good manner; this is an alleviation from your Lord and a mercy; so whoever exceeds the limit after this he shall have a painful chastisement.”2:216 (link added) (Z: fighting has been prescribed for you and) you dislike it …“ The life of this world is made to seem fair to those who disbelieve, and they mock those who believe, and those who guard (against evil) shall be above them on the day of resurrection; and Allah gives means of subsistence to whom he pleases without measure.”

Say what?  Retaliation and fighting has been prescribed for you?  Wow!

Way to go CAIR Oklahoma.

According to CAIR Oklahoma, sharia law isn't really ever the real sharia law - even in Islamic countries ruled by sharia law!

"Do not refer to the laws in Muslim-majority countries (even those claiming to be “Islam!ic states”) as “sharia.” They are merely a legislated selection of humanly-created fiqh rules; they cannot be said to be conclusively dictated by sharia itself."  Humanly-created?  Any sharia law ruling is done by an Islamic authority (last paragraph)

Muslim Brotherhood Has Secret Societies in 80 Nations, including U.S. Says Ex Member!

An ex-Muslim Brotherhood member told a conference in Abu Dhabi this week the Muslim Brotherhood has secret societies in 80 nations, including the U.S., they actively recruits Muslims, and that an international group reports to superiors in New York City!  Earlier this year, I read on the Ikhwanweb English website that @HazemMalky is an editor and lives in NYC (6th paragraph). 

Below is an excerpt from the article about the Muslim Brotherhood:   

Tharwat Al Kherbawy told a conference in Abu Dhabi that the Brotherhood with headquarters in Egypt, was infiltrating Western and Arab states by recruiting their Muslim citizens. Al Kherbawy said the Brotherhood established secret societies in more than 80 countries, with recruits pledged to violence. “So these novices are raised on obedience and allegiance to the supreme guide, accepting no criticism of him or his actions,” Al Kherbawy told the conference, entitled “Challenges and Threats posed by the Muslim Brotherhood to UAE and Countries of the Region.” “They are taught to regard the movement as their home and that standing to the national anthem of their country is polytheism.

...Al Kherbawy said the Brotherhood presence in any country consists of three units. They included a unit comprised of local residents, a secret Egyptian cell, and what Al Kherbawy termed an international group that reports to superiors in the American city of New York.

Faizan Syed, director of CAIR Missouri, wants to punish those who insult Islam with sharia law!

Last August, the director of CAIR St. Louis, Faizan Syed, wrote on their website that Muslims should realize the urgent need to monitor social media and then he gave a few of his ideas for monitoring it in a post titled Social Media Task Force http://www.cair-stlouis.com/component/k2/item/28-social-media-task-force (UPDATE 2/21/2013:  Syed has removed this page but see my PDF of it below). 

The picture above is a screen shot taken from a video of him found on his YouTube page.  Syed, who was born in Pakistan and moved to the U.S. in 1991, suggested the creation of a Muslim youth association who would monitor the media.  This group would counter negative Islamic messages on the internet instantly and aggressively.  But, what really stood out was what he wrote under the section "I have few suggestions to make in this regard" (5th bullet): 

"Report anti Islamic and anti Muslim content on the internet to appropriate authorities to take action to remove it and go after those who post it online and prosecute and take actions according to the Shariah ruling."

Take action according to the Shariah ruling?  Is this man serious?  I mean - in some Islamic countries this could mean death.  No doubt, Syed's recent talk titled Shariah Coming to a Court Near You was to convince others they have absoutely nothing to worry about with sharia law.

Simply astonishing.

NOW's young feminist chair, N. Jerin Arifa, falsely claimed woman's death was a hate crime

The young feminist taskforce chair at the National Organization for Women (NOW), N. Jerin Arifa, wrote one of the most misleading articles about Islamophobia I've every read.  In Arifa's piece titled Islamophobia Encourages Violence Against Women, she writes in the first sentence "There is significant and well-justified concern within the feminist community and beyond about Muslim women’s rights"  This is true but it doesn't have anything to do with Islamophobia (a non-recognized phobia that's hurled at just about any criticism of Muslims or Islam by Muslim activists). She might want to review a recent decision by the Assocated Press: AP Drops ‘Homophobia’ And ‘Islamophobia’ From Its Style Guide.  She went on to say this concern for the treatment of Muslim women was used by the US government as justification to go to war.   Say what?

Arifa admitted in her article she's been accused of using the term Islamophobia too much and was misquided: 

These “feminists,” who have spent decades working in the anti-domestic-violence field, are using the same tactics as abusers to shut me up when I point out oppression. They minimize and deflect their racism, accusing me of bringing up Islamophobia too often, although I work  on everything from sexist Halloween costumes to the labor movement. Coupled with the racism, they tell me I am misguided because of my young age and just need time to be enlightened to leave my faith, since being “a religious feminist is an oxymoron.”

She said the Quran denounced violence against women and that extremist have hijacked it for misoginist purposes. She failed (purposely, I presume) to mention the verse in the Quran that allows for hitting or beating of a wife if she's difficult which most all the Islamic sharia rulings back this up. Check out Verse 4.34 for your self.  Arifa went on to say when violence does happen to a Muslim woman it is discussed in terms of the religion or the culture rather than the victim which then (somehow?) makes it possible for hate crimes against Muslim women to take place and linked to the story of an Iraqi woman in California who was beaten to death and a hate note left behind as proof. 

Arifa failed miserably here, either by purposeful omission or just not doing her homework,  because this woman's husband was charged in the crime.  He was the one who tried to frame his wife's death as a hate crime.  This horrible and senseless death had absolutely nothing to do with Arifa's allegation.  She went on to claim that it was a false notion that other cultures treat their women differently.  Then she says if you need convincing that racism against Muslims is un-feminist she link to an article about rape.  The big problem with this accusation is Islam isn't a race, at all.

Seriously, this has got to be one of the worst articles I've ever read.  Yes, N. Jeri Arifa, your critics are right, you are misguided - and I would add - very.

Is the #MyJihad PR Campaign Deceptive?

In December, Ahmed Rehab, the Director of CAIR Chicago founded MyJihad. They claim it's an educational campaign to redefine or take-back the term jihad from Muslim extremists and those people who are often referred to as Islamophobes - you know those who call attention to the words and actions of the Muslims who concern us.  CAIR Chicago manages it, sponsors it, collects the donations and the phone number and address listed on the website is CAIR Chicago.  All of this is coming from a chapter of a national organization that was named an unindicted co-conspirator in the largest Hamas terror-funding case in US history!  Do you get the sick irony here?

Report: Missouri-based Internet company hosting Hezbollah-affiliated Al Manar TV website!

The Washington Free Beacon reported yesterday that a Missouri-based company is hosting a designated terrorist group's TV website:

The Missouri-based GSI Hosting is granting server space to Al Manar TV, which is owned and funded by Hezbollah, according to research provided by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).

The U.S. has cited Hezbollah and Al Manar as terrorist organizations, a designation that makes it illegal for anyone in America to “knowingly provide ‘material support or resources’” to the groups, according to the State Department.

GSI Hosting, which is owned by the Texas-based Layered Tech, was notified last month by MEMRI that it was hosting Al Manar’s website.

...The site was subsequently removed on Nov. 26, but reappeared on the company’s servers on Dec. 6, according to MEMRI executive director Steven Stalinsky. Stalinsky has authored several reports detailing Al Manar’s emergence on both U.S. and United Kingdom-based Internet servers.

....Layered Tech, GSI Hosting’s parent company, did not respond to a request for comment about its business dealings with Al Manar.

It was still hosting Al Manar’s website as of Monday.

Here's the 2006 press release from the U.S. Treasury department when it designated Al-Manar as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist Entity saying its television station is an arm of the Hizballah terrorist network.

...In addition to supporting Hizballah, al Manar has also provided support to other designated Palestinian terrorist organizations, including the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) and al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, notably transferring tens of thousands of dollars for a PIJ-controlled charity.  PIJ is listed as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist and a Foreign Terrorist Organization by the U.S. Government, and is also named on the European Union's list of terrorist entities. 

Hizballah Secretary General Hasan Nasrallah, along with Hizballah's Executive Council, managed and oversaw the budgets of al Manar and al Nour. 

...Today's action prohibits transactions between U.S. persons and the designated entities and also freezes any assets they may have under U.S. jurisdiction.

Feel free to contact Layered Technology and complain to Brad Hokamp. President (brad.hokamp@layeredtech.com best guess) or Jack Finlayson, CEO (jack.finlayson@layeredtech.com), of Layered Technology, 5065 W Park Blvd, Plano, TX 75093-2514,  Phone 972-398-7000 twitter @layeredtech, @gsihosting

Cyrus McGoldrick of CAIR NY retweets Hamas leader: provide us accurate weapons to fight the enemy!

The civil rights manager for CAIR New York, Cyrus McGoldrick, retweeted a message from Ali Abunimah who runs the anti-Israel Electronic Intafada who had tweeted out word from Hamas leader Kahled Meshal:

Does anyone have any doubt left about CAIR and most of their Muslim activists support for Hamas?

Remember, Israel gave up the Gaza strip to help appease Muslims and within 10 days rockets were fired upon them.  In a bloody takeover in 2007, Hamas then seized power from the Fatah goverment there. This is a fact even though I heard, during this latest conflict, Islamist supporting liberal reporters tell their TV audience Hamas was elected to power in 2006.

Muneer Awad falsely claims CAIR's unindicted co-conspirator appeal was ruled in their favor!

In an article about Pamela Geller's pro Israel/anti-jihad ads that went up on some New York subways, CAIR New York's Executive Director Muneer Awad was quoted (H/T @antiCAIR) in a Staten Island on-line newspaper that CAIR won the appeal of the decision by the U.S. government to name them as unindicted co-conspirators in the Holy Land Foundation Trial - the largest Hamas terror-funding case in U.S. history:

Awad described Ms. Geller's comments about CAIR as "arguably one of the most poorly thought-out conspiracy theories of the year.

"Geller has invested her time and energy into resuscitating attention on CAIR as an unindicted co-conspirator, an issue that has already been settled by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals and the Department of Justice in CAIR's favor."

There is just one problem with Awad's statement - IT ISN'T TRUE!  (CBN 11/26/2010): 

The U.S. Justice Department has provided "ample evidence" that the Washington-based Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) has been involved in a conspiracy to support the terrorist group Hamas, according to a federal court ruling unsealed Friday.

"The four pieces of evidence the government relies on do create at least a prima facie case as to CAIR's involvement in a conspiracy to support Hamas," U.S. District Judge Jorge A. Solis wrote in his 20-page, July 2009 ruling.

Consequently, the court denied CAIR's request to have its name removed from documents listing the group as an unindicted co-conspirator in the case.

Among the evidence provided by the Justice Department are documents showing CAIR operated as a key member of the "Palestine Committee," the U.S. wing of Hamas. Also, both CAIR's founding chairman Omar Ahmad and acting executive director Nihad Awad were placed at a clandestine meeting with Hamas leaders in Philadelphia.

"The attendees agreed not to mention the word Hamas but to refer to Hamas as 'Samah,' which is Hamas spelled backwards," Solis said. "The Philadelphia conference essentially laid out the path that the Palestine Committee would take to accomplish its goal of supporting Hamas in the future."

Here's a link to the unsealed court document. 

Prior to becoming CAIR New York's new executive director in August, Muneer Awad was the executive director of CAIR Oklahoma.  He's the individual who sued Oklahoma for its constitutional amendment than prohibits courts from using foreign law - including sharia law in its decision. Sharia law is used in a number of Islamic countries as the basis for their laws. Awad moved to Oklahoma just a short time before he sued. The case is pending. One has to wonder if this pending case has something to do with CAIR Oklahoma's claim that Muneer Awad still resides in Oklahoma even though he's the new Executive Director for CAIR New York.  On September 26th, Awad tweeted about leaving work early to get home (Oklahoma? - that's were they say he lives):

On that same day, he tweeted:  Honored to work where my inspiration is honored: Celebrating the Living History of #Harlem. #MalcomX #LangstonHughes

Harlem is in New York City.  Two days later he tweeted about his long subway ride into work.  Well - there are no subways in Oklahoma:

Seems odd to me.

This wasn't the first time Awad denied CAIR's ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.  Shortly after Awad sued Oklahoma in 2010, he was asked in a NYC radio interview about Washington-based CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood/Hamas connection which is based on court documents that led to their unindicted co-conspirator status.  

Awad said it wasn't true and that it was all lies...

Jillian Holzbauer Frazier - CAIR Oklahoma's unlikely new spin-master tackles Islamophobia

Within a month of being hired for a newly created position as CAIR Oklahoma's communication director, Jillian Holzbauer Frazier tackled Islamophobia In an opinion piece published by a liberal Tulsa paper - who pretty much just publishes what CAIR gives them - titled Extreme rhetoric can nurture violence.

Holzbauer Frazier implied what appears to be legitimate concerns expressed by three public officials was extreme rhertoric.  U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann who merely inquired about possible Muslim Brotherhood infiltration into our government and simply asked how people are vetted if they have ties to it.  Rep. Joe Walsh, R-Ill who stated there are radical Islamists who want to kill Americans and Oklahoma Rep. Rex Duncan who helped bring to a vote of Oklahomans a constitutional amendment that would not allow foreign law, which also included sharia law - the law used by a number of Islamic countries - to be considered in state court decisions.  This amendment passed overwhelmingly in the fall of 2009. It was CAIR Oklahoma's new director, Muneer Awad, who within days of moving here, sued the state.   I should point out Muneer Awad recently became the director of CAIR New York although the CAIR Oklahoma website makes it a point to state he still lives in the state.

Rep. Emily Virgin hosts 2nd Muslim Iftar Dinner at Oklahoma State Capitol!

Last night, Rep. Emily Virgin (D Norman) hosted the 2nd Iftar dinner at the Oklahoma State Capitol.  She tweeted how proud and honored she was to host it:

 

I first read about this in a tweet from CAIR National:

An Iftar dinner is a religious dinner observed by Muslims.  The link that CAIR tweeted was to a AP story about it.  Oklahoma senators Tom Ivester and John Sparks also hosted it.  I asked Rep. Virgin, via a tweet, this morning who funded the dinner. So far, nothing.  As a Oklahoma taxpayer, I want to know.  Another question I have for Rep. Emily Virgin is what religious dinners were held at the Oklahoma State Capitol that honored Christian, Jewish or other faiths in the last two years.  When I asked her a similar question last year she said she didn't know"

I tweeted Rep. Virgin a number of times since then to ask that a similar dinner be held to honor the Christian faith - which she just ignored.

 Update 8/2/12:  Rep. Emily Virgin yesterday evening told me by Twitter the dinner was privately funded.

CAIR Oklahoma director, Muneer Awad, to be executive director of CAIR NY!

CAIR New York has announced its new executive director will be Muneer Awad,  Awad is currently the director of CAIR's chapter in Oklahoma and is the man who appears to have moved to the state for the purpose of suing it over SQ755, a constitutional amendment that would forbid state courts from considering foreign laws in its decisions, including sharia law which is the ruling system in many Islamic countries.  Throughout Awad's arguments in court, it seemed to me, he claimed sharia law was the same as sharia guidance which is something I don't believe he was challenged on, at all.  They are not the same thing. I wasn't in the courtroom but that's what I got from how it was reported in the press.

CAIR New York has been very active in trying to dismantle some of the anti-terror security efforts in New York City, a top target for Islamic terrorists. Its civil right manager, Cyrus McGoldrick is a Muslim activist who tweets about being a radical.

With Muneer Awad heading CAIR New York, I expect more lawsuits against New York City, its police department, the FBI going forward. Awad, for the most part, is the typical abrasive Muslim bully who uses name-calling to steam-roll over others as he goes after the target.  He's typical of the type of Muslim activist CAIR hires. He is also effective at partnering with the left for political maneuvering. 

Muneer Awad, by the way, belives the FBI radiclazies more terrorists than Anwar Awlaki!

CAIR was started by leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood's Islamic Association of Palestine.  Its national executive director, Nihad Awad, is one of those leaders.

Is CAIR increasing their presence in Oklahoma?

Is CAIR increasing their presence in Oklahoma?

A recent notice put out by CAIR Oklahoma which is posted on their website indicates they have four positions opened.  Up until now, they had two positions in the state; the director and the operations coordinator.  It now appears a new communication manager and a new civil rights manager position have been added.  All four positions are open for new job candidates.  Interesting.

Does this mean Muneer Awad, their director here and the man who sued Oklahoma over its anti-foreign law admendment, is leaving CAIR Oklahoma?

University of Central Arkansas teacher forced to apologize for insulting Islam!

According to an article published today in Emirates24/7, Cici Tubb-Warbington, a teacher at the University of Central Arkansas was forced to apologize for insulting Islam when several Saudi students took offense to something she said or did involving a picture.

From Anti-Islamic US teacher forced to apologise:

A female university teacher in the United States had to apologise to her Saudi students for offending Islam after they protested her behaviour to the management, Saudi newspapers reported on Tuesday.

The students went straight to the teacher’s direct manager and complained that she had placed anti-Islamic pictures with abusive remarks in their books. They threatened that in case no action is taken, they would go straight to the chairman of the University of Central Arkansas in the southern state of America.

“We went into the office of the manager of the institute where we study and submitted a protest…we told her that if she does not take action against the teacher, we will go to the head of the university,” Saudi student Ahmed bin Daheem Al Hajour said, quoted by the Saudi Ajel newspaper.

...“I just want to apologize to you if you saw something here the other day that was offensive to Islam…I liked the picture because I liked the caption-- I didn’t even look at the picture I was liking…it was a stupid mistake and I didn’t even realise until a student complained to Amy (manager) and she talked to me,” the teacher said in her message.

“I want you to know I care deeply about my Saudi students…last term for example, I rearranged my class schedule so that the men could attend mosque and not have to miss class…..I have always tried to be sensible and respectful, so I feel terrible that I made such a stupid and thoughtless mistake… I would never intentionally do something to be offensive.”

Today she wrote on her FB page something that may or may not be related to the incident:

It wasn't clear what the offensive picture was or what the "abusive remarks" the Saudi students claim she made and how this insulted Islam or how the story ended in the Saudi papers and Emirates 24/7.   It's quite concerning how this college teacher might have been  forced to apologize for exercizing something that may have been well-within her free speech rights.  Not having all the facts makes it hard to make sense of this but it reminds me of the subjugation Islamic supremacists seem determined to impose on everyone.

1999 Saudi Embassy Announcement of Money Given to CAIR!

I finally found, actually stumbled across, an archive of the Saudi Embassy announcement that $250,000 was given to CAIR to buy land for their national headquarters!

Open Letter to Oklahoma Conference of Churches who sponsored a CAIR fund-raiser

note:  a similar letter was emailed to Dr. Tabbernee  earlier this week.  He did not give me the courtesy of a reply.

April 11, 2012

Rev. Dr. William Tabbernee

Executive Director

Oklahoma Conference of Churches

301 Northwest 36th Street
Oklahoma City, OK 73118

Dear Rev.Tabbernee:

 I read in a CAIR Oklahoma announcement your church coalition was one of the sponsors for their banquet on March 31st held at the Oklahoma City Marriott.

I want to express my strong concern the Oklahoma Conference of Churches used money to help finance/support a fund-raising eventfor a chapter of an organization started by leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood's Islamic Association of Palestine (IAP).  One of those former IAP leaders, Nihad Awad, is their National Executive Director who has been in this position from its inception.  He has been to Oklahoma in support of the Oklahoma chapter.

CAIR raised around $120,000 which was short of their goal. It looked like the people were encouraged to send their pledge to CAIR National based on this photo.  Perhaps, I'm wrong although the number is a DC exchange where CAIR National offices is located. Coincidence?  Maybe. CAIR OK praised the local Imam: "We also want to designate a special appreciation to our event's inspirational speaker, Imam Imad Enchassi, for helping us raise funds." Imam Enchassi prayed last year on his Facebook wall his desire the Middle East would unite as it was before WW1 with no borders under Divine guidance.  This means he's hoping for a new Islamic supremacist caliphate to emerge in the region.  Oh, the ramifications for the world should this happen. Yet, this is the goal of Islamists.  Is Imam Enchassi's Islamist wish something you support?  Would he discuss his hopes openly at an interfaith meeting if this was brought to his attention, Dr. Tabbernee?

 

Imam Enchassi also made it clear what the Islamic view of other religions are which was highlighted with a specific Quranic verse to help explain the consequences of believing in a false religion which is in writing on the Islamic Society of Greater Oklahoma City website:

"If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah-(God)) never will It be accepted of Him" (The Qur'an 3:85)

I'm sure he's not quite that candid at local interfaith gatherings.  I find these statements worrisome because they are about Islamic supremacy which is the cornerstone of Islamism.  The tweet below by CAIR's Muneer Awad about the FBI is appalling.

These are but a few of the worrisome statements I've read over the last few years as I've studied Islamism.  The good news is there are a growing number of American Islamic groups that are speaking out against Islamic supremacy (Islamism).  Twenty of them have formed a coalition called the American Islamic Leadership Coalition.  CAIR and like-minded groups are currently on a mission to try derail the recent appointment of one of its key leaders, Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, to the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom.  Some CAIR directors have called him an Uncle Tom, blamed him for creating a climate of MURDER in the death of an Iraqi women in California, even though evidence appears to be leading investigators to look into family problems.

My fear is your organization may not pay attention to the words and actions of CAIR and its supporters over time that are made outside of interfaith gatherings.  Perhaps, I'm wrong but this is my impression.

There are many, many other ways to show support for the fine Oklahoma Muslim community we have outside of CAIR, who wants to speak for ALL Muslims and gets really bent if other Muslim leaders dare.  Considering the support provided by the Oklahoma Conference of Churches a fundraiser for CAIR, I will find a church charity or cause that aren't associated with your organization which I will help support and promote. I also plan to inform other Oklahomans to the best of my ability.

Sincerely,  

Brandi L. Eave

a concerned Oklahoman
