Islamophobes

 Reupped on Sept. 18, 2021.

UPDATED: Sept. 14 , 2012

"...Islamophobic groups registered only a minimal impact during the 2008 election campaign. Two years later, however, after the Republicans regained control of the House of Representatives in midterm elections, the network appears to have reached critical mass. Of course, the deciding factor in the election was the economy, and in two years, Americans will likely vote their pocketbooks again. But that the construction of a single Islamic community center or the imaginary threat of Sharia law were issues at all reflected the influence of a small band of locally oriented activists, and suggested that when a certain presidential candidate who has already been demonized as a crypto-Muslim runs for reelection, the country’s most vocal Islamophobes could once again find a national platform amid the frenzied atmosphere of the campaign.

By now, the Islamophobic crusade has gone beyond the right-wing pro-Israel activists, cyber-bigots, and ambitious hucksters who conceived it. It now belongs to leading Republican presidential candidates, top-rated cable news hosts, and crowds of Tea Party activists. As the fervor spreads, the crusaders are basking in the glory of what they accomplished. “I didn’t choose this moment,” Geller mused to the New York Times, “this moment chose me.” "

Quote by Max Blumenthal from his indepth article on the growth of Islamophobia engineered by a smal well funded group of bigots who hate not just radical Muslims but rather all of the 1.6 Billion Muslims world wide.

ISLAMOPHOBIA

Motivation for Islamophobia:

"Raymond Ibrahim and the Islamophobic Cash Cow" Posted on 13 January 2010 by Emperor at Loonwatch.com

OK, here it is - and you need to sit down for this - it's called "The Islamophobia cash cow."

Post 9/11, the fastest and surest way to gain celebrity status in the West and garner respect and attention you would otherwise never achieve on your own mediocre merit is to go on an "Islam-bashing" campaign.

And, mind you, you don't need to be an expert on the subject matter, just make sure to quote verses from the Qur'an out of context, cite Osama Bin Laden as the role model of Muslim behavior, bank on tired canaries like "Islam oppresses women," and "Islam was spread by the sword," and other washed out cliches, and voila!

You're a celebrity, a famous author (a rich, famous author, mind you), a Good Samaritan defending the civilized world from the evils of Islam.

Definitions of Islamophobia at:
Islamophobia Watch
Documenting anti Muslim bigotry

Runnymede Trust:
The Runnymede Trust has identified eight components that they say define Islamophobia.
This definition, from the 1997 document 'Islamophobia: A Challenge For Us All' is widely accepted, including by the European Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xenophobia.
The eight components are:

1) Islam is seen as a monolithic bloc, static and unresponsive to change.
2) Islam is seen as separate and 'other'. It does not have values in common with other cultures, is not affected by them and does not influence them.
3) Islam is seen as inferior to the West. It is seen as barbaric, irrational, primitive and sexist.
4) Islam is seen as violent, aggressive, threatening, supportive of terrorism and engaged in a 'clash of civilisations'.
5) Islam is seen as a political ideology and is used for political or military advantage.
6) Criticisms made of the West by Islam are rejected out of hand.
7) Hostility towards Islam is used to justify discriminatory practices towards Muslims and exclusion of Muslims from mainstream society.
8) Anti-Muslim hostility is seen as natural or normal.

Wikipedia
Islamophobia is the fear and/or hatred of Islam, Muslims or Islamic culture. Islamophobia can be characterised by the belief that all or most Muslims are religious fanatics, have violent tendencies towards non-Muslims, and reject as directly opposed to Islam such concepts as equality, tolerance, and democracy.

It is viewed as a new form of racism whereby Muslims, an ethno-religious group, not a race, are nevertheless constructed as a race.

A set of negative assumptions are made of the entire group to the detriment of members of that group.

During the 1990's many sociologists and cultural analysts observed a shift in forms of prejudice from ones based on skin colour to ones based on notions of cultural superiority and otherness.


Salaam website:
An excellent definition also appears on the Salaam website written by "al-Maktabi":

"the term 'Islamophobia' does not adequately express the full range and depth of antipathy towards Islam and Muslims in the West today. It is an inadequate term."

"A more accurate expression would be 'anti-Islamic racism' for it combines the elements of dislike of a religion and active discrimination against the people belonging to that religion."

Imam Dr Abduljalil Sajid:
One of the members of the Runnymede Trust's Commission on British Muslims and Islamophobia which published the famous 1997 report argues that:

"Hostility towards Islam and Muslims has been a feature of European societies since the eighth century of the Common Era. It has taken different forms, however, at different times and has fulfilled a variety of functions. For example, the hostility in Spain in the fifteenth century was not the same as the hostility that had been expressed and mobilised in the Crusades. Nor was the hostility during the time of the Ottoman Empire or that which was prevalent throughout the age of empires and colonialism. It may be more apt to speak of 'Islamophobias' rather than of a single phenomenon. Each version of Islamophobia has its own features as well as similarities with, and borrowings from, other versions."

-----------------------------------

This hatred of Islam and all Muslims is promoted and propagandized by lumping any and all Muslims together in the most negative light possible.
Islamophobes erroneously conflate all Muslims and Islam with violent groups such as Al Qaeda .
Though Al Qaeda claims it represents "True Islam" but most Muslims reject the violent Islamic Supremacist ideology and theology of Al Qaeda and other groups such as the radical Taliban.

Islamophobes for example attack the Prophet Muhammad falsely characterizing Muhammad as a con artist, a charlatan, a liar , a sexual deviant & pedophile & sex-addict, and as intolerant , and anti-Semitic , as xenophobic , a misogynist , as a man of violence and a ruthless murderer etc.

These Islamophobes also deride and demean the Holy Qur'an the Holy Book at the center of Islam.
Islamophes claim the Qur'an calls for world conquest by violence if necessary .
According to these Islamophobes all those who do not convert to Islam will be either reduced to second class citizenship (dhimmis) or in the event slaughtered.

And yet for instance the Qur'an and Muhammed argue that there will no compulsion in religion.

So Islamophobes such as Pam Geller of Atlas Shrugs calls for the expunging and banning of the Qur'an because it is seen by Geller as pernicious.

For example:

In an appearance on the Beck Show, Wafa Sultan, the self-declared reformist who was also given a special award by conference organizers, announced, "I don’t see any difference between radical Islam and regular Islam." Nonie Darwish, an Egyptian-American convert to Christianity was in tune with Sultan as the two declared during a panel discussion that one could not be American and Muslim at the same time. 

(Aside:When John F. Kennedy was running for president there were those who believed that as a Catholic JFK couldn't be loyal to America and the Vatican at the same time.)

Michael Morgan in his book Lost History quotes from what is considered Muhammad's "last sermon,... Muhammad... sets out some visionary and progressive concepts with which men will struggle for a thousand years to come, such as the following on racial and ethnic equality:

All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black, nor a black has any superiority over a white-except by piety and good action.

And Abu Bakr the first Caliph of Islam is quoted as saying in his first speech to the Ummah:

O Men! I have been assigned the job of being a ruler over you while I am not the best among you. If I do well in my job,help me. If I do wrong ,redress me. Truthfulness is fidelity, and lying is treason. The weak shall be strong in my eyes until I restore to them their lost rights, and the strong shall be weak in my eye until I have restored the rights of the weak from them.

Abu Bakr first Caliph of Islam -Found in Lost History by Michael Hamilton Morgan ,p. 12 pub. 2007.

Anyway it is unfortunately a fact that anti-Islam bigotry is growing in the West replicating in many ways some of the very language of Anti-Semitism and using the anti-Semitic hate filled vile conspiracy theories to attack Muslims. They just replace the word"Jews" with the word "Muslims" . Muslims are characterized as infiltrating Western Society as part of their 1400 year old plan to make all the world's nations into Islamic Nations. For example Martin Luther who was a rabid anti-semite characterized Judaism as being in reality "the Synagogues of Satan" this invective has morphed into " The Mosques of Satan".

So no longer for most Christians is Judaism the enemy of Christianity as Judaism has now been replaced by Islam. It is not just Western Christians who are bigoted in their views about Islam but many secularist is the West have also given into an irrational form of anti-Islamic hysteria. Their view is that it is not just extremist Muslims who are the enemy but all Muslims because they erroneously conclude that according to Islamic doctrine it is the duty all good Muslims to wage a Jihad against all non-Muslims.

Muslims are characterized by the Anti-Muslims by using various racist stereotypes For example characterizing all Muslims as being a bit miserly because they don't buy what they can't afford. Rather than calling it common sense or frugality .

Muslims are said to be deceitful. Their detractors in the West claim that the Qur'an allows for deceitfulness so if they wanted to they could pose as a Christian or a Jew to accomplish some task like blowing up buildings etc.
As the Jews were depicted as either being part of a radical left wing party, the liberals, the reformers, the communist . etc to push for their agenda. Some of these Islamophobes still talk as if Obama was a secret Muslim because they say according to Islam lying as a tactic is acceptable. .
Muslims are characterized as an invading force . The religion of Islam is reduced to being called a cult by the Christian Right Leaders and leading neoconservatives. Some like Pat Robertson and others actually refer to Muslims as being evil because Islam was created by the Father of Lies the Devil and so must be defeated and obliterated . This used to also be how Judaism was represented by the Christians who blamed the Jews for murdering Jesus -Deicide And so the Jews were forever cursed by God .

Once these stereotypes get rooted into the mainstream the War on Terror becomes a Cosmic War. Such a war cannot be over until there are too few to fear or to even obliterate even the last few.

As once the Jews were depicted by Christians as their enemy and for the most part this did not really end til after the second World War and the revelations of the magnitude of the slaughter of Jews by Hitler and the Nazis. The Shoah or holocaust and this finally shamed many into changing their attitudes towards the Jews. What would it take to shame these bigots to stop attacking Islam. A million dead Iraqis has had no effect on the Americans or other countries.


And we are informed that it is a very clever strategy to use a Middle Easterner who was a Muslim and now is on a mission to prove Islam is a religion of Hate and that there is not really any so called "moderate Muslims"

Islamophobia and anti-Muslim bigotry has become a growing industry for selling books and other paraphanelia besides getting on the rather lucrative "lecture circuit" of universities , churches & Synagogues and appearances at the various Neocon, Religious Right or Ultraconservative conventions or weekend seminars and TV spots on Fox News etc.



Above anti-Islam cartoon - as if the Catholic Church was never responsible for violence-? The Crusades, Inquisition, Witch Hunts, Killing heretics Protestants etc., Two thousand years of Anti-Semitism which led to the Shoah/ Holocaust-(while the Catholic Church and the Pope did nothing to stop it or to inform the world, besides child molesting priests, priests who supported Hitler, Mussolini, Franco & other Fascist Dictators while helping to undermine democratic Regimes & being anti-women's rights, anti-Unions & workers rights and Gay Rights and on and on...

NOTE: Christianity throughout the centuries has at least been as violent, intolerant and bigoted as Islam.

Brigitte's new book, Because They Hate: A Survivor of Islamic Terror Warns America, (great title right?) describes how she lost her childhood to militant Islam. In 1975 she was ten years old and living in Southern Lebanon when militant Muslims from throughout the Middle East poured into her country and declared jihad against the Lebanese Christians. . For seven years, Brigitte and her parents lived in an underground bomb shelter. They had no running water or electricity and very little food; at times they were reduced to boiling grass to survive."

Boykin, who scored a meeting with Mitt Romney in August, was publicly rebuked by President George W.

The Great Islamophobic Crusade: Inside the Bizarre Cabal of Secretive Donors, Demagogic Bloggers, Pseudo-Scholars, European Neo-Fascists, Violent Israeli Settlers, and Republican Presidential Hopefuls Behind the Crusade By Max Blumenthal "Information Clearing House" Sept. 13, 2012

Nine years after 9/11, hysteria about Muslims in American life has gripped the country. With it has gone an outburst of arson attacks on mosques, campaigns to stop their construction, and the branding of the Muslim-American community, overwhelmingly moderate, as a hotbed of potential terrorist recruits. The frenzy has raged from rural Tennessee to New York City, while in Oklahoma, voters even overwhelmingly approved a ballot measure banning the implementation of Sharia law in American courts (not that such a prospect existed). This campaign of Islamophobia wounded President Obama politically, as one out of five Americans have bought into a sustained chorus of false rumors about his secret Muslim faith. And it may have tainted views of Muslims in general; an August 2010 Pew Research Center poll revealed that, among Americans, the favorability rating of Muslims had dropped by 11 points since 2005.

Erupting so many years after the September 11th trauma, this spasm of anti-Muslim bigotry might seem oddly timed and unexpectedly spontaneous. But think again: it’s the fruit of an organized, long-term campaign by a tight confederation of right-wing activists and operatives who first focused on Islamophobia soon after the September 11th attacks, but only attained critical mass during the Obama era. It was then that embittered conservative forces, voted out of power in 2008, sought with remarkable success to leverage cultural resentment into political and partisan gain.

This network is obsessively fixated on the supposed spread of Muslim influence in America. Its apparatus spans continents, extending from Tea Party activists here to the European far right. It brings together in common cause right-wing ultra-Zionists, Christian evangelicals, and racist British soccer hooligans. It reflects an aggressively pro-Israel sensibility, with its key figures venerating the Jewish state as a Middle Eastern Fort Apache on the front lines of the Global War on Terror and urging the U.S. and various European powers to emulate its heavy-handed methods.

Little of recent American Islamophobia (with a strong emphasis on the “phobia”) is sheer happenstance. Years before Tea Party shock troops massed for angry protests outside the proposed site of an Islamic community center in lower Manhattan, representatives of the Israel lobby and the Jewish-American establishment launched a campaign against pro-Palestinian campus activism that would prove a seedbed for everything to come. That campaign quickly -- and perhaps predictably -- morphed into a series of crusades against mosques and Islamic schools which, in turn, attracted an assortment of shady but exceptionally energetic militants into the network’s ranks.

Besides providing the initial energy for the Islamophobic crusade, conservative elements from within the pro-Israel lobby bankrolled the network’s apparatus, enabling it to influence the national debate. One philanthropist in particular has provided the beneficence to propel the campaign ahead. He is a little-known Los Angeles-area software security entrepreneur named Aubrey Chernick, who operates out of a security consulting firm blandly named the National Center for Crisis and Continuity Coordination. A former trustee of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, which has served as a think tank for the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), a frontline lobbying group for Israel, Chernick is said to be worth $750 million...

...Birth of a Network

The Islamophobic crusade was launched in earnest at the peak of George W. Bush’s prestige when the neoconservatives and their allies were riding high. In 2003, three years after the collapse of President Bill Clinton’s attempt to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian issue and in the immediate wake of the invasion of Iraq, a network of Jewish groups, ranging from ADL and the American Jewish Committee to AIPAC, gathered to address what they saw as a sudden rise in pro-Palestinian activism on college campuses nationwide. That meeting gave birth to the David Project, a campus advocacy group led by Charles Jacobs, who had co-founded CAMERA, one of the many outfits bankrolled by Chernick. With the help of public relations professionals, Jacobs conceived a plan to “take back the campus by influencing public opinion through lectures, the Internet, and coalitions,” as a memo produced at the time by the consulting firm McKinsey and Company stated.


...In late 2009, the Islamophobes sprang into action again when the Cordoba Initiative, a non-profit Muslim group headed by Feisal Abdul Rauf, an exceedingly moderate Sufi Muslim imam who regularly traveled abroad representing the United States at the behest of the State Department, announced that it was going to build a community center in downtown New York City.

With the help of investors, Rauf’s Cordoba Initiative purchased space two blocks from Ground Zero in Manhattan. The space was to contain a prayer area as part of a large community center that would be open to everyone in the neighborhood.

None of these facts mattered to Pamela Geller. Thanks to constant prodding at her blog, Atlas Shrugged, Geller made Cordoba’s construction plans a national issue, provoking fervent calls from conservatives to protect the “hallowed ground” of 9/11 from creeping Sharia. (That the “mosque” would have been out of sight of Ground Zero and that the neighborhood was, in fact, filled with everything from strip clubs to fast-food joints didn't matter.) Geller’s activism against Cordoba House earned the 52-year-old full-time blogger the attention she apparently craved, including a long profile in the New York Times and frequent cable news spots, especially, of course, on Fox News.

Mainstream reporters tended to focus on Geller’s bizarre stunts. She posted a video of herself splashing around in a string bikini on a Fort Lauderdale beach, for instance, while ranting about “left-tards” and “Nazi Hezbollah.” Her call for boycotting Campbell’s Soup because the company offered halal -- approved under Islamic law (as kosher food is under Jewish law) -- versions of its products got her much attention, as did her promotion of a screed claiming that President Barack Obama was the illegitimate lovechild of Malcolm X.

Geller had never earned a living as a journalist. She supported herself with millions of dollars in a divorce settlement and life insurance money from her ex-husband. He died in 2008, a year after being indicted for an alleged $1.3 million scam he was accused of running out of a car dealership he co-owned with Geller. Independently wealthy and with time on her hands, Geller proved able indeed when it came to exploiting her strange media stardom to incite the already organized political network of Islamophobes to intensify their crusade.

She also benefited from close alliances with leading Islamophobes from Europe. Among Geller’s allies was Andrew Gravers, a Danish activist who formed the group Stop the Islamicization of Europe, and gave it the unusually blunt motto: “Racism is the lowest form of human stupidity, but Islamophobia is the height of common sense.” Gravers’ group inspired Geller’s own U.S.-based outfit, Stop the Islamicization of America, which she formed with her friend Robert Spencer, a pseudo-scholar whose bestselling books, including The Truth About Muhammad, Founder of the World’s Most Intolerant Religion, prompted former advisor to President Richard Nixon and Muslim activist Robert Crane to call him, “the principal leader… in the new academic field of Muslim bashing.” (According to the website Politico, almost $1 million in donations from Chernick has been steered to Spencer’s Jihad Watch group through David Horowitz’s Freedom Center.)

Perfect sources for Republican political figures in search of the next hot-button cause, their rhetoric found its way into the talking points of Newt Gingrich and Sarah Palin as they propelled the crusade against Cordoba House into the national spotlight. Gingrich soon compared the community center to a Nazi sign next to the Holocaust Memorial Museum, while Palin called it “a stab in the heart” of “the Heartland.” Meanwhile, Tea Party candidates like Republican Ilario Pantano, an Iraq war veteran who killed two unarmed Iraqi civilians, shooting them 60 times -- he even stopped to reload -- made their opposition to Cordoba House the centerpiece of midterm congressional campaigns conducted hundreds of miles from Ground Zero.

Geller’s campaign against “the mosque at Ground Zero” gained an unexpected assist and a veneer of legitimacy from established Jewish leaders like Anti-Defamation League National Director Abraham Foxman. “Survivors of the Holocaust are entitled to feelings that are irrational,” he remarked to the New York Times. Comparing the bereaved family members of 9-11 victims to Holocaust survivors, Foxman insisted, “Their anguish entitles them to positions that others would categorize as irrational or bigoted.”

Soon enough, David Harris, director of the (Chernick-funded) American Jewish Committee, was demanding that Cordoba’s leaders be compelled to reveal their “true attitudes” about Palestinian militant groups before construction on the center was initiated. Rabbi Marvin Hier of the Simon Wiesenthal Center of Los Angeles, another major Jewish group, insisted it would be “insensitive” for Cordoba to build near “a cemetery,” though his organization had recently been granted permission from the municipality of Jerusalem to build a “museum of tolerance” to be called The Center for Human Dignity directly on top of the Mamilla Cemetery, a Muslim graveyard that contained thousands of gravesites dating back 1,200 years.

and this recent news item seems too bizarre to be true but unfortunately it is true:

  in  the Ironically named Israeli " Museum of Tolerance – Center for Human Dignity " which is being built on a thousand year old Palestinian cemetery so so much for tolerance and human dignity as the builders desecrate ancient graves and pay no heed to those who dare to object to this desecration.

CCR: Israeli excavations continue in Jerusalem’s Mamilla cemetery despite Wiesenthal Center claims by Adam horowitz at Mondoweiss, March 27, 2012

March 26, 2012, Jerusalem, New York - New photographic and video evidence made public today for the first time by the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) indicates that controversial archeological excavations by the Israeli Antiquities Authority (IAA) have continued this month on the ancient Mamilla cemetery in Jerusalem. The Los Angeles-based Simon Wiesenthal Center (SWC) seeks to erect a “Museum of Tolerance – Center for Human Dignity” on the site. The new evidence strongly suggests that the site still contains archaeological artifacts and human remains, contrary to SWC claims that bedrock has been reached on all portions of the site.

“Incredibly, the SWC and Israeli authorities continue to desecrate this ancient cemetery, ostensibly in the name of tolerance. Not only does this dishonor the descendants of those buried in Mamilla, it also reinforces the second-class citizenship of all Palestinians. It is time that Israel and the SWC heed the calls of prominent religious figures, human rights advocates, eminent archeologists and people all over the world to end this sacrilege,” said CCR President Emeritus Michael Ratner, who co-signed a recent letter to the SWC opposing the construction.

DiscoverTheNetworks (DTN) is a database/search website meant to track "the left" and terrorists, with an implicit connection between the two, with some similarities to SourceWatch. It is a project of the David Horowitz Freedom Center. DiscoverTheNetworks was launched on February 15, 2005, but Horowitz claims it was two-years under development. The About Us section explains, DTN:

is a "Guide to the Political Left." It identifies the individuals and organizations that make up the left and also the institutions that fund and sustain it; it maps the paths through which the left exerts its influence on the larger body politic; it defines the left's (often hidden) programmatic agendas and it provides an understanding of its history and ideas.

*Brigitte Gabriel darling of the Anti-Islam anti-Muslim crowd outed as a Fascist, a Bigot a Fraud-supported the Fascist Maronite Christian "Phalange Party" of Lebanon
*David Horowitz gets owned on CNN

*David Horowitz exaggerates and fear mongers about there being too many Professors at American Universities who are "liberal' and "Leftist Extremists". Note the characterization of "liberals' or Leftist extremists" is a much broader concept in American parlance than it is outside the United States. Americans in general are still hopelessly trapped into a "cold War " mindset as it were.They still have trouble dealing with dissent and dissidents. Conservative Americans and even Conservative Intellectuals tend to have more in common with their counterparts in the former Soviet Union 's Communist party intellectuals who were also unable to think as it were outside the Box and so aided the calcification of the Soviet Union's policy making that is they were unable to adapt enough to a changing situation.

According to one study the reason there are few Ultra-Conservative Professors is because as Conservatives they tend to be too dogmatic and authoritarian in their views and so have trouble exposing students to various alternatives in critiquing what ever is being studied. Another reason given is that the private sector offers more financial success than does the teaching at most universities. This is not a slight on a Conservatives' aptitude or intelligence

David Horowitz like other Neocons and American Conservatives and the Religious Right believe that the universities in America have been taken over by Leftist extremists . They complain that professors at these universities promote a leftist ideology and never present other viewpoints which contradict or question this leftist ideology. First we need to note that the term "leftists" in the way these Conservatives use it is rather broad . The definition is so broad it includes any critique of America's history or of American of domestic and foreign policies or of human rights in America or the economic system of unfettered capitalism.

These conservatives are for instance anti-union, anti-Gay, anti-feminists, anti-diversity, anti-pluralism, anti-multiculturalism anti-immigrant, anti-minority rights. If they had their way Jim Crow would still dominated the Deep South and women would not have all the rights they have fought for.



As we have seen in previous posts that David Horowitz or Daniel Pipes see any critique of American history, its economic system, its foreign policies as being promoted by leftist extremists especially during the reign of George W. Bush.

They believe anyone who is not supportive of the entire agenda of the Neoconservatives, the American Conservative Movement and the Religious Right is by definition not just "liberal" but a "leftist extremist" To be against the US invasion and occupation of Iraq and the manner in which this occupation has been carried out is seen by neoconservatives as anti-American and by extension they believe as being pro-terrorists.

Like the Evangelical Fundamentalists the Neocons see everything in stark terms of black and white as Bush infamously proclaimed to the world "You are either with us or against us" which amounts to saying that Nations either support the US Global War on Terror or these nations are on the side of the terrorists and against America.

According to the Neocons who supported the Bush/Cheney Regime it was tantamount to treason to question the administrations beliefs about Saddam or its commitment to invade Iraq as a supposedly preemptive attack against a potential threat. Which Saddam was not.

So when a university professor in a course on American political , religious or social history allows student to think for themselves and do the necessary research to attempt to understand a particular issue without being told what their conclusions ougt to be the Neocons see this as encouraging students to not accept "American Exceptionalism" or that America can do no wrong and that America is on a mission directed by God or that America is following a path which is an extension of the Natural Laws ie Manifest destiny and the belief that the United States is the only truly free and sovereign nation.

The Mufti of Berlin: Arab-Nazi collaboration is a taboo topic in the West by Pam Geller at Atlas Shrugs Oct.13, 2009

An exhibition in Berlin that cast light on the Muslim/Nazi collaboration during the holocaust was cancelled for fear of Islam. The publicly funded multicultural center in Berlin, "Werkstatt der Kulturen," is located in a heavily Turkish and Arab neighborhood.

Karl Rössel, the German journalist responsible for the exhibition, "The Third World in the Second World War", wonders "why the people who so one-sidedly regard Israel as the region's main problem never consider how the Mideast conflict would have developed had it not been influenced by fascists, anti-Semites and people who had just returned from their Nazi exile". I can assure Mr. Rössel that it would have turned out exactly the same. Read the Quran. Read Dr. Andrew Bostom's The Legacy of Islamic Antisemitism. Muslims were/are not inspired by Hitler and the Nazis. Hitler and the Nazis were inspired by Islam. I have written on this very thing extensively (here)

The irony here is that Pamela Gellar and other s who demonize Islam use the very same tactics and appeal to a somewhat mythical all pervasive secret Islamic conspiracy to take over the world.

I guess Pamela Gellar even now believes that the notorious Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion was written by or at least inspired by secret Muslims working for the Russian secret police in 1905. The Protocols were the brainchild we know of the Russian secret police to influence the Tzar so he would be convinced that any and all demands for Political and social Reforms were being orchestrated by a secret cabal of Jewish leaders. Pam Gellar and other anti-Islamic Americans are now once again rewriting history to fit their newly conjured up narrative of Western Civilization and Christendom which has been besieged in one way or another since 632 AD that is the founding date of Islam by Muhammad.


Reckoning or Requiem for Rifqa? Hearing today decides her fate" Pamela Geller at Atlas Shrugs Oct. 13, 2009

It is indicative of how hardwired for denial the media, Islamic apologists, and politicians are when a little girl, terrified of a certain fate, is forced to return to a life of abuse and terror. We hope it's denial, as any other motive would be too sinister to contemplate.


There is no question that the penalty for apostasy is death in Islam. There is no question that the Noor mosque is radical and frightfully extreme.


When the mosque warned Rifqa's father Mohamed that his daughter was a convert (after spying on her), he was told to "straighten her out or else". He threatened to kill her if "this Jesus is in your heart".


Today jurisdiction is decided. The question is, why send Rifqa back? The girl is terrified. if Islam were not involved, that in and of itself would be enough. Ohio is not safe. The home is not safe. As apostate Nonie Darwish explained at the Former Muslims United press conference, there is no way Rifqa can be free to love Jesus and practice Christianity in a devout Muslim home. The community in Ohio is not safe for her. Placing her in another foster care home in Ohio for 30 days accomplishes what exactly?


She will turn 18 next year. She is in America. Freedom from religious persecution is our unalienable right. Individual rights is our inalienable right.


Non-muslim countries worldwide understand the threat. It is incomprehensible that America would be behind the curve on individual rights.


The hearing is at 2:30 pm this afternoon. I am in Florida (just hit the tarmac). If I get a seat in the main hearing room, I cannot liveblog. Not to worry. I will take copious notes and transcribe what really happened, as I did here and here and here. The media accounts have not reflected what actually has happened.


They understand the threat in Europe, only too well.

Pamela Geller and other ultra-rightists who are fanatically anti-Islam want to appeal to the sentiments and prejudices of the Religious Right and the American populace in general to foment hatred and even violence against Islam and "liberal' or "Secular Humanists" who dare defend the majority of Muslims in America or elsewhere. What they would prefer is an all out war against Islam to destroy it once and for all. They use hyped-up rhetoric and half-truths invented tales of atrocities and the notion that all Muslims every last one of them hates Christianity, the West and especially America since they know it is God's Chosen nation. They attack Islam as an evil Satanic Religion led by a "False Prophet" and deny the major role played by the Catholic Church and Protestant Churches in promulgating anti-Semitism.

John Hagee and Brigitte Gabriel refuted at Youtube
also see on the lies and distortions and exaggerations made by self-agrandizing Gabriel Brigitte who claims to have spent years in an air raid shelter-more likely a few days or weeks-also her family were members of the Christian privileged class who were waging war against Muslim -Lebanese in order to keep them in their place as second class citizens and/or drive them all out of Lebanon. As we hear from her own lips she believe the Muslims were or are of a lower class or order compared to the Christian Lebanese.

Note outing Brigitte Gabriel for being an anti-Islam anti-Muslim bigot or that she supported the attempt of the genocide of all Muslim Lebanese will have little effect on those Americans who support her and are always ready to accept any negative statement about Muslims as a fact even when there is evidence to the contrary.These Conservative Americans who are fanatically anti-Muslim see nothing wrong with the wholesale killing and massacres of Muslims including the old, the infirm, women, children. Odd how they claim to be Pro-life and yet not when it comes to those they hate even when unjustified. But Americans for several centuries had the same attitude towards the Native Americans and of the Hawaiians and the peoples of the Philippines, or the peoples of Mexico or Central and South America and those of Vietnam, Laos , Cambodia or of African Americans. Bigots can always find new groups to target as once they hated all Jews now they hate all Muslims and if truth be told all those peoples around the globe who are not Judeo-Christian Americans of European descent.

Brigitte Gabriel on Terrorism? It Takes One to Know One The peoples Voices June 29, 2007
( detain_this@myway.com | http://detain-this.blogspot.com) also see ENDNOTES below.

To those who are familiar with contemporary Lebanese history, the mention of the terms "Phalangist militia" and "South Lebanon Army" (SLA) will bring to mind the massacres of Palestinian refugees inside the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps in 1982 and the detainment, torturing, and murder of anti-Israeli Lebanese and Palestinians at the Khiam Detention Center in South Lebanon between 1985 and 2000. Both tragedies were carried out by militias commanded and staffed by pro-Israeli Maronite Christians, and both were ultimately engineered and funded by the IDF. According to even the loosest of definitions, both tragedies are traitorous acts of terror; according to consensus opinion of the major human rights organizations of the world, they are also crimes against humanity.

"It is indisputable that systematic torture occurred in Khiam. And the continuing partnership between Israel and the SLA on matters related to this prison implicates Lebanese and Israelis with legal responsibility for criminal actions. In addition to the periodic visits of GSS [Shin Bet] personnel, the defense ministry's affidavit admitted that Israel and the SLA 'consult each other regarding the arrest and release of people in the Khiam facility' and that 'information from the interrogations in Khiam is transferred by the SLA to Israeli security forces.'" [3]

Brigitte Gabriel defends those who committed said atrocities. As a member of the Maronite sect of her erstwhile homeland, she defends her people at every turn, while claiming that it has been Hizballah and every other anti-Israeli Muslim group in Lebanon that has been doing all the unlawful detentions, torturing, and terrorism. [4] Brigitte always fails to mention that her people were collaborators with a hostile, foreign, occupying state (Israel), and that her fellow Maronites of the Phalange Party and SLA committed crimes against humanity against their own people:

"The Maronites form the base community for the quasi-fascist Kata'ib Party, better known in the West as the Phalange Party (see Hizbullah, Israel, and the Gemayel Assassination) and have been allies of Israel and the West in Lebanon since at least early 1980s.

The Israelis killed tens of thousands of Palestinians and Lebanese in the country from 1982 until 2000 (a point Gabriel seems to neglect) but it was Maronite militias who actually perpetrated the Israeli-sanctioned massacres at Sabra and Shatila in 1982. Despite this, contrary to Gabriel's claims, the Maronites not only survive but wield considerable power in Lebanon, including 34 out of 128 seats in the current Lebanese parliament.Gabriel and her family come from Marjayoun in southern Lebanon. Marjayoun was the headquarters of Israeli occupation forces and Israel's proxy, the South Lebanon Army (SLA). In 2000, Hizbullah drove the Israelis from the country and the SLA collapsed."

More on Brigitte's terrorist brothers of the SLA and Phalange Party, the fall of the Khiam prison, and how Hizballah fit into the picture:

"[The SLA] was never fully trusted by the Israeli army which trained, armed and financed it. However, its members were paid salaries of $500 - a handsome sum in an economically depressed area, and many of their families found labouring jobs in Israel. The 2,500-strong force has always been left to do the dirtiest work for Israel. Most notoriously, they were in nominal charge of al-Khiam prison south of Marjayoun. On Tuesday, local villagers broke down the prison door with their bare hands as the SLA fled. Weeping and fainting with emotion, prisoners - some of them captive for more than 10 years - were reunited with their families. Many hundreds of Lebanese prisoners had been held there over the years without trial and without charge, under inhuman conditions with routine torture. . . . Often the detainees were held merely as hostages, because they had relatives in Hezbollah, or because they refused to collaborate with Israel."

"In May 2000, as the IDF started to withdraw, its proxy force, the SLA, disintegrated rapidly; within hours the whole of the formerly IDF-held strip became a rolling victory carnival for Hizbullah. The SLA men who had guarded and run the notorious prison and torture center at Khiam slipped away from their posts and the people of Khiam, a predominantly Shiite town, rushed in to free their loved ones. Hizbullah's yellow flags flew exuberantly right up to Israel's northern border. Villagers who had over the years been forced out of the security zone or the much-damaged areas to its north crowded back homewards in cavalcades of cars and tractors. Some SLA members fled to Israel. But the bloodbath feared by many Israelis (and some Lebanese) never occurred. The Hizbullah leadership issued strict instructions prohibiting acts of vengeance in the liberated areas as well as violations of the international border with Israel. Both orders were obeyed."

So tell me, Brigitte: Who are the terrorists again?

END-NOTES: Dhimmitude

Brigitte Gabriel's family in Lebanon were members of the fascist Phalange Party:
"Phalange Party" at Country Studies

Formed in 1936 as a Maronite paramilitary youth organization by Pierre Jumayyil (who modeled it on the fascist organizations he had observed while in Berlin as an Olympic athlete), the Phalange, or Phalanxes (Kataib in Arabic), was authoritarian and very centralized, and its leader was all powerful. It quickly grew into a major political force in Mount Lebanon. After at first allying itself with the French Mandate authorities, the Phalange sided with those calling for independence; as a result, the party was dissolved in 1942 by the French high commissioner (it was restored after The French left Lebanon). Despite this early dispute, over the years the Phalange has been closely associated with France in particular and the West in general. In fact, for many years the party newspaper, Al Amal, was printed in Arabic and French.

Consistent with its authoritarian beginnings, Phalangist ideology has been on the right of the political spectrum. Although it has embraced the need to "modernize," it has always favored the preservation of the sectarian status quo. The Phalange Party motto is "God, the Fatherland, and the Family," and its doctrine emphasizes a free economy and private initiative. Phalangist ideology focuses on the primacy of preserving the Lebanese nation, but with a "Phoenician" identity, distinct from its Arab, Muslim neighbors. Party policies have been uniformly anticommunist and anti-Palestinian and have allowed no place for pan-Arab ideals.

and: Lebanon’s Phalange Party: Back From the Grave?Jan 10, 2002

America’s Sept. 11 ordeal, followed by the war in Afghanistan, made world headlines during the last months of 2001. Even in the Middle East press, other events—with the exception of the Israeli atrocities in Palestine—received minor coverage, if any. Grossly under-covered and almost unnoticed was a transformation that took place in Lebanon: the election of the eloquent statesman and Phalange vice president Karim Pakradouni as president of the Phalange Party, the standard-bearer of Lebanon’s Christians, and the political defeat of former Lebanese President Amin Gemayel.

and from Wikipedia:

Sabra and Shatila massacre

The Sabra and Shatila massacre (Arabic: مذبحة صبرا وشاتيلا‎ Maḏbaḥat Ṣabrā wa Shātīlā) — or Sabra and Chatila massacre — was a massacre of Palestinian and Lebanese civilians carried out between 16 and 18 September 1982 by the Lebanese Forces militia group, following the assassination of Phalangist leader and president-elect Bachir Gemayel. The Israeli Defense Force (IDF), who surrounded Beirut's Palestinian refugee camps, allowed the Lebanese Forces Christian militia to enter two of these refugee camps, Sabra and Shatila

The Israeli government established the Kahan Commission to investigate, and in early 1983 it found Israel indirectly responsible for the event. The report said the possibility of a revenge attempt was "foreseeable", and that Israeli commanders should not have permitted Phalangists into the camps. Ariel Sharon was found to bear personal responsibility[3] for "ignoring the danger of bloodshed and revenge" and for "not taking appropriate measures to prevent bloodshed." The commission demanded that Sharon resign as head of the Defence Ministry, which he did, reluctantly.

In 1982, an independent commission chaired by Sean MacBride concluded that the government of Israel has no valid reasons under international law for its invasion of Lebanon. It also concluded that the Israeli authorities or forces were involved directly or indirectly in the massacres at Sabra and Shatila

"Sabra and Shatila 20 years on" by Martin Asser BBC News Online

On 16 September 1982, under the watchful eye of their Israeli allies who had encircled the area, Lebanese Christian militiamen entered Beirut's Sabra and Shatila refugee camps bent on revenge for the assassination of their leader Bashir Gemayel.

Refugee camps like Shatila still lack the most basic services
There followed a three-day orgy of rape and slaughter that left hundreds, possibly thousands, of innocent civilians dead in what is considered the bloodiest single incident of the Arab-Israeli conflict.

The right kind of bigotry By Glenn Greenwald at Salon.com Feb. 6, 2010

From the long-time Editor-in-Chief and owner of The New Republic, this morning:

There were moments--long moments--during the Iraq war when I had my doubts. Even deep doubts. Frankly, I couldn’t quite imagine any venture requiring trust with Arabs turning out especially well. This is, you will say, my prejudice. But some prejudices are built on real facts, and history generally proves me right. Go ahead, prove me wrong.

The point here is so obvious that it makes itself. In the bolded sentence, replace the word "Arabs" with "Jews" and ask yourself: how much time would elapse before the author of such a sentence would be vehemently scorned and shunned by all decent people, formally condemned by a litany of organizations, and have his livelihood placed in jeopardy? Or replace the word "Arabs" in that sentence with "Jews" or "blacks" or "Latinos" or even "whites" or virtually any other identifiable demographic group and ask yourself this: how many people would treat a magazine edited and owned by such a person as a remotely respectable or mainstream publication (notwithstanding the several decent journalists employed there)?

Yet Marty Peretz spits out the most bigoted sentiments of this type -- and he's been doing this for years, as is well known -- and very little happens, because, for multiple reasons, this specific type of hate-mongering remains basically permitted in American political discourse.

The double standard at play here is as extreme and self-evident as it is pernicious, but it doesn't matter. And we'll all wait with bated breath for the next installment of The New Republic's righteous, accusatory attacks on the entirely fictitious manifestations of the one strain of bigotry that bothers them, because they're such credible arbiters and opponents of prejudice.

The video below shows Wafa Sultan's moment which is a pivotal event which made her a darling of anti-Muslims and Islamophobes. She was brought up and lived as a Muslim and then left Islam. She is an apostate but also describes herself as an atheist who does not believe in the "supernatural" and yet Evangelical Christians and the Neocons and their fellow travelers are now using her to spew her hatred of Islam while she defends Judaism and Christianity and Western Civilization.

But like all Neocons and other anti-Islam propagandists she over states her case against Islam while over-indulging in her praise of all things Western and completely overlooks the failings of the West in the present or in its blood soaked past. See pics above and endnotes from Christians killing Pagans, & Heretics,Apostates, infidels and the Crusades the Inquisition, the Slave trade, mass murdering American Indians/ Indigenous Peoples in other parts of the world, Wars between Western States, Religious Wars Catholics vs Protestants, racism, anti-Semitism, starving the Irish, the Boers, the Cubans followed by the Holocaust engineered by Christians,the Atomic Bomb and a thousand other modern way to slaughter people who you don't like or who's resources you desire-and on and on-Colonialism lives on even under Obama

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Nonie Darwish: Blasphemy & Incitement
Nonie Darwish is the author, most recently, of "Cruel and Usual Punishment: The Terrifying Global Implications of Islamic Law," as well as the memoir, "Now They Call Me Infidel." This presentation was given as part of the Ethics & Public Policy Center's series on Shariah and international libel laws.

Nonie Darwish argues that in Islam one is not to question the Quran or the traditions and teachings compiled in the Hadith. But she puts forth the rather dubious claim that in the West and according to Judeo-Christian principles and values anything can be discussed and questioned as part a long tradition in the West. So Nothing is beyond question-tell that to the Evangelical Fundamentalist who believe that it is heretical to question the literal inerrant truth of the Bible. This notion does not hold true even with questioning neoconservative arguments and views and policies which are seen as having the force of "religious dogma" .

According to the Neoconservatives and their media Shills to question Samuel Huntington's theory about "the Clash of Civilizations" is considered heresy as is questioning the American invasion and occupation of Iraq and the on going war in Afghanistan and Pakistan. The Neoconservatives also argue that torture and abuse of POWs is not immoral or illegal and that it has resulted in actionable intelligence.

But the rest of the International Community believes that the Invasion of Iraq was wrong and constitutes a "War Crime". The International Community also condemns as immoral and illegal the abuse and torture of POWs or Enemy Combatants or so called detainees. Secondly the agreement amongst impartial experts who are not working for some extreme rightwing political or religious organization or a Faux Think Tank run by Neocons is that torture besides being illegal and immoral is also not a practical policy. One it does not lead to a lot of actionable intelligence-the tortured person will say anything to get the torturers to stop. So the individual being tortured may relate some truth mixed in with fabrications. From the practical or utilitarian point of view one has to weigh what is gained by torture and what are the possible unintended consequences ie creating more enemies and more "blow-back". According to experts on terrorism and terrorists organizations the use of torture just makes one's enemies more determined and increases support for their cause in the general population and is a great recruitment device for recruiting more terrorists.

Hannity calls Nonie Darwish an expert on Islam
Nonie Darwish, an American of Arab/Moslem origin, comments on the recent (and tense) interview on Hannity & Colmes with Muslim leader who recently spoke at DNC winter meeting.
Another common theme for these outspoken former Muslims and their Christian and secularist fellow travelers is that they have suffered in the past when they lived in the Middle East and are now suffering as they are attacked for speaking out claiming Muslims and Pro-Muslim groups are trying to shut them down.

So Nonie Darwish like other outspoken Muslims or former Muslims is a martyr having been threatened, banned from some universities or receiving a hostile reception. But such attacks on her merely raises her esteem as one who speaks "truth to Power" in the eyes of Western anti-Islamists and the Radical Christian Right.This seems odd since she and her fellow travelers seem to get on TV and radio and are featured in newspapers and magazines and on blogs and take part in various conferences in which they get the chance to speak about their experiences and to spread their hatred of all Muslims. Nonie Darwish for instance divides Muslims into two major categories those who are involved in the planning and the committing of terrorist actions and those who remain silent about such actions but who secretly applaud such actions. To her there is no such thing as a " moderate Muslim ".

What nominee to Obama administration Harold Koh said was not that all of Islamic Sharia law should be adopted into US jurisprudence but rather that there might be a case made that Sharia law could be followed in certain appropriate cases in US law.But the Islamophobes and anti-Obama crowd of course take a simple statement out of context and make it into a major policy statement. Note he is talking about certain legal cases where and if appropriate. So any Sharia specific law if it goes against the basic laws and rights of American citizens then in such cases it would not be appropriate to apply Sharia law. So Muslim men would not be permitted to beat their wives or have woman executed for adultery or some other offence. Fox News and Nonie Darwish ignore the fact that Koh's statement is a qualified statement about Sharia and not some unconditional support for Sharia.

"Arson fire set 15 minutes before Nonie Darwish event at Boston University" Jihad Watch by Robert Spencer, Dec. 5, 2009

The site of Nonie Darwish's address had to be changed, but it went on as scheduled. The student who organized the event, and others as well, strongly suspected that the arson was connected to Nonie's appearance on campus, as you can see from the letter below.

This indicates an increasing desperation on the part of the campus Left and its Islamic supremacist allies. They cannot refute the truths about jihad and Islamic supremacism that speakers like Nonie Darwish reveal, so they increasingly resort to thuggery: cancellations based on smears. Pie-throwing. Libelous email campaigns.

The one thing they do not do, and cannot do, is prove false what we are saying in defense of freedom against the global jihad. Generally they do not make the attempt, and when they do, only spin out ridiculous farragos full of tu quoque and other detours. More often, they attempt to silence and marginalize us in Alinskyite fashion -- thereby revealing their abject intellectual bankruptcy.

"Nonie Darwish: Saving Rifqa; Apostates Demand Protection" at Jihad Watch Aug. 20,2009

Nonie Darwish, an ex-Muslim and author of the superb book on Sharia, Cruel and Usual Punishment, comments on the Rifqa Bary case: "Former Muslims need protection now from the US government and court system. We need protection from Sharia Islamic Law."

"In spite of the clear danger to the life of Muslims who leave Islam, both the legal system and mainstream media still don’t get it. The most recent case in the US of the 17-year old girl, Rifqa Bary, is an example. US courts need proof (even though it is clearly stated in Islamic law books) that Islamic Law condemn apostates to death and encourage any Muslim on the street, even family members, to kill them. Western media does not seem to be interested in the topic. That is the same media that dedicates weeks of valuable air time to ridiculous claims of human rights violations only to certain privileged groups in America.

Ms. Bary, Muslim convert to Christianity, had good instincts when she realized the great danger to her life and escaped from her home in Ohio and sought protection from the Christian community in Orlando Florida. If she had not escaped, she could have been yet another statistic of Muslims killed for leaving Islam. "

Nonie Darwish founded the organizationFormer Muslims United

Founders Nonie Darwish, Walid Shoebat, Mohammed Asgha, Amil Imani, Wafa Sultan, Ibn Warraq

Former Muslims United Founders have all faced threats, intimidation and discrimination due to their exercising their right to religious freedom. They are also all leaders in the international movement for civil rights for apostates from Islam.

Nonie Darwish: Director

Darwish’s Arabs for Israel website describes itself as an organization of Arabs and Muslims who “respect and support the State of Israel”, welcome a “peaceful and diverse Middle East”, reject “suicide/homicide terrorism as a form of Jihad”, and promote “constructive self-criticism and reform” in the Arab/Muslim world. She often says “Just because I am pro- Israel does not mean I am anti- Arab, its just that my culture is in desperate need for reformation which must come from within”.

She has spoken on numerous college campuses including Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Princeton, Brown, Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Oxford, Cornell, UCLA, NYU, Virginia Tech, UC Berkeley and several others. She has also spoken on Capitol Hill, the House of Lords, and The European Parliament.

and from the bio of another member of Former Muslims United Walid Shoebat :

Shoebat argues that parallels exist between radical Islam and Nazism. He says, “Secular dogma like Nazism is less dangerous than Islamofascism that we see today … because Islamofascism has a religious twist to it; it says ‘God the Almighty ordered you to do this’…. It is trying to grow itself in fifty-five Muslim states. So potentially, you could have a success rate of several Nazi Germanys, if these people get their way.”

He is the founder of the Walid Shoebat Foundation, an organization that combats Islamic terrorist dogma which threatens the western way of life. He is the author of the books Why I Left Jihad: The Root of Terrorism and the Return of Radical Islam (2005), and Why We Want to Kill You: The Jihadist Mindset and How to Defeat It (2007).

and also from their website we get their Mission Statement which basically redefines religion in such a way that Islam is ruled out as a legitimate religion.

Former Muslims United Mission Statement

Introduction

Former Muslims United does not criticize any religion, in the sense that the religion is practiced as a personal relationship with God. But if a religion expands itself to become a one party totalitarian State, ruled by an elaborate legal system controlling every aspect of private and public life, and requiring the killing and incitement of violence against those who leave it, then that religion cannot be immune from criticism. It is no longer a private religion, but has become instead a totalitarian dictatorship. It is in this sense, since Islam’s apostasy laws condemn former Muslims to death and allows vigilante violence against apostates, that Islam itself has opened itself to criticism. Therefore, Former Muslims United, welcoming all former Muslims including converts to all other religions, as well as atheists or agnostics, will pursue these goals:

Goals

1- Develop a legal framework for and ensure the civil rights of American individuals and organizations to provide sanctuary for former Muslims without being subject to legal penalties or threats.

2- Call on all Muslims and their spiritual leaders to reject, publicly and without reservation or exception, all Sharia doctrine that permits or calls for punishment or discrimination against former Muslims, including intimidation and threats against person or property. This rejection of violence applies to individuals, Sharia authorities, Muslim courts or other Sharia bodies, governments, and quasi-governmental bodies.

Darwish's speech topics cover human rights, with emphasis on women's rights and minority rights in the Middle East. She is the director of Former Muslims United.[3]

Born in Egypt, Darwish is the daughter of an Egyptian Army lieutenant general, who was called a "shahid" by the Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Nasser,[4] after being killed in an Israeli raid. Darwish blames "the Middle Eastern Islamic culture and the propaganda of hatred taught to children from birth" for his death, which she describes as an "assassination". In 1978, she moved with her husband to the United States, and converted to Christianity there. After September 11, 2001 she has written on Islam-related topics

--
Nonie says that it is very dangerous to believe anyone who claims to be an apostate, because terrorists will come in to the organization and infiltrate it. Nonie also, in response to a question, explains that Reliance of the Traveller -- Umdat al-Salik -- contains detailed directives regarding the killing of apostates. It is certified by Al-Azhar as a reliable guide to Sharia. Meanwhile, it is all one-sided. Muslims have total access to the West, and can preach and spread Islam, but we cannot build churches, etc., in Muslim lands. We are going to see majority-Muslim areas in Europe and there will be violence there as there is now in Chechnya and Israel.

Darwish on Rifqa Bary:

In this sense, Wafa Sultan falls into the same category as Walid Shoebat, Brigitte Gabriel, Nonie Darwish, Kamal Saleem, Zachariah Anani and other self-proclaimed turn coats from their Arab and Muslim identities. As we mentioned before this group attempts to parlay their “otherness,” and so-called “insider knowledge of the Muslim world,” (the “I’ve been there, I know” line) into a cash cow. Meanwhile, we are supposed to be duped into freaking out and running back to them for more “expert” advice brought to us from our loyal friend who ventures into the other side on our behalf.

Sultan is no different, her tale of flight into Islamophobic stardom is a curious and thoroughly modern one. In the beginning of this tale Sultan was invited onto a show hosted by the well known anchorman of AlJazeera’s Opposing Viewpoints (Ittijaah al-Mu’aakas), Faisal Al-Qasim for the purpose of a debate with professor Ibrahim al-Khouly from Al-Azhar on the topic of the Clash of Civilizations and the Clash of Religions. Al-Qasim, brought her onto the show originally after noticing some of her articles on the Arabic website called AnNaqed (The Critic). The New York Times reported that the website was an Islamic reform site, but in actuality it turns out that it is a Christian website

In an appearance on the Beck Show, Wafa Sultan, the self-declared reformist who was also given a special award by conference organizers, announced, "I don’t see any difference between radical Islam and regular Islam." Nonie Darwish, an Egyptian-American convert to Christianity was in tune with Sultan as the two declared during a panel discussion that one could not be American and Muslim at the same time.

The Cave of the Patriarchs massacre was an attack on Muslim Palestinians at the mosque in the Cave of the Patriarchs in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, in the city of Hebron, on February 25, 1994.[1] Baruch Goldstein, an Israeli settler and member of the extremist Kach movement, opened fire on unarmed worshipers at prayer, killing between 39 and 52 Palestinians, while wounding over 100 others.[1] Goldstein was also killed in the attack, which took place during the overlapping religious holidays of Purim and Ramadan.

Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin condemned the attack, describing Goldstein as a "degenerate murderer", "a shame on Zionism and an embarrassment to Judaism". The attack set off riots and protests throughout the occupied territories, and an additional 19 Palestinians were killed by the Israeli Defense Forces within 48 hours of the massacre. Goldstein was praised as a martyr by some Jewish extremists in Hebron, and his gravesite subsequently became a site of pilgrimage for Israeli extremists.

Pam Geller at Atlas Shrugs
Blaming Islam for the Holocaust/Shoah and for 2000 years of Christian & European anti-Semitism is a bit of a stretch - it is just another attempt at re-writing European and American history to cover-up the rabid anti-Semitism of Christianity.


Rifqa Bary as Little Red Riding Hood Besieged by Wolves as Pamela Gellar at Atlas Shrugs uses the dubious narrative of Rifqa Bary as the New Esther /Prophet being victimized by Muslim-Americans, the police, the US government and President Obama as all part of a World Wide Conspiracy to make America into a Muslim /Islamic Nation BULL-Pucky as hateful misleading lies and propaganda as that of the notorious fraud The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion- This is Hate Speech which could incite violence and yet liberals and Progressives and the Obama administration and people like Maddow and Olbermann have been silent. They should be pursuing the story to discern the truth whatever it may actually be.


Hitler & The Mufti Ultarightists such as Pamela Gellar at Atlas Shrugs blames Islam and Muslims for the Holocaust and for the history of anti-Semitism thoughout Western Civilization and the world was accordingly the Brain-Child of Muhammad in 632AD. What a load of BS nonsense -at one fell stroke Pamela Gellar condemns Islam and all Muslims as being Anti-Semitic, anti-Christian anti-Western Civilization while now revising all of Western Christian history removing the stain of anti-Semitism from Christianity and Christians - This cannot Stand without a response!!!

Ayn Rand and Fascism

"Objectivism and Libertarianism owe a great deal to the writings of Ayn Rand and both are typically associated with belief in expansive degrees of personal liberty. It is arguable, though, that Ayn Rand's writings exhibit a disturbing fascination of and interest in more fascist attitudes towards humanity and human social relations.
Johann Hari writes:


She explained her philosophy at first through pot-boilers like ‘The Fountainhead’. One of her heroes boasts that he is the polar opposite of Robin Hood: “He was the man who robbed the rich and gave to the poor. I’m the man who robs the poor and gives to the rich, or to be more exact, the man who robs the thieving poor and gives back to the productive rich.” If you want a sign of Rand’s quiet victory, close your eyes and realize this could be Dick Cheney in one of his more candid moments, explaining the logic behind his massive tax cuts for the wealthy.


Rand’s morality was a perfect fit for the age of the celebrity billionaire. She conjures a world where the CEO is Messiah, where the sign of the Cross is replaced with the sign of the dollar, and where hideous penis-proxies like Trump Towers are the pinnacle of human achievement. In her novel ‘Atlas Shrugged’, the world’s billionaires – the Ted Turners and Donald Trumps – go on strike in protest against the “insane regulations” and “exorbitant tax” handed down from Washington D.C. The country quickly regresses into anarchy, with businesses collapsing, food distribution networks falling apart, and America becoming a wasteland – until finally the grateful populace welcomes back their economic Overlords and promises to never again pester them with wild notions like taxation or regulation.

And:

Whittaker Chambers famously wrote in the National Review, “Just as her operatic businessmen are, in fact, Nietzschean supermen, so her ulcerous leftists are Nietzsche’s ‘last men’, both deformed in a way to sicken the fastidious recluse of Sils Marnia… [In her vision] resistance to the Message cannot be tolerated because disagreement can never be merely honest, prudent, or just humanly fallible. Dissent from revelation so final can only be willfully wicked. There are ways of dealing with such wickedness, and , in fact, reason itself enjoins them. From almost every page of Atlas Shrugged, a voice can be heard, from painful necessity, commanding, “To a gas chamber – go!””...

Consultant for Anti-Muslim Film Provided Combat Training for Hate Group Hatewatch at SPLC , Sept. 12, 2012

Steve Klein, who served as a consultant for the Islam-bashing film that sparked the deadly assault on a U.S. Consulate in Libya, is a longtime religious-right activist who has helped train paramilitary militias at a secretive church in California.

Four American citizens, including U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens, were killed by mobs enraged by the depiction of the prophet Muhammad in the film “Innocence of Muslims” produced by Sam Bacile, a California real estate developer.

Klein is a Marine veteran who served in the Vietnam War and is based in Hemet, Calif. He believes that his state is riddled with Muslim Brotherhood sleeper cells “who are awaiting the trigger date and will begin randomly killing as many of us as they can,” according to an article in the Spring 2012 issue of the SPLC Intelligence Report.

Over the years, Klein has worked with a variety of far-right groups, including the Church at Kaweah, which the SPLC lists as a hate group. The Church of Kaweah is a secretive cohort of militant Christian fundamentalists in California who are preparing for war and who believe that churches should avoid government regulation and answer only to God. Kaweah has its own militia, headed by David “Dutch” Johnson (aka Dutch Joens), a longtime antigovernment veteran of the militia movement. Johnson looks forward to the battle that will begin when “Dictator Obongo” institutes martial law. He has called Mexicans savages “who can’t run their own government” and recommended sending guns to drug cartels to “decrease the excess population in Mexico so they don’t come north.”

Klein also conducts drills with the Christian Guardians, a San Francisco-based group headed by Andrew Saqib James, an American-born Pakistani Christian who calls Islam “a giant crime syndicate” and hopes his group will become “the most feared militia in the world.” The Church of Kaweah’s website has advertised joint trainings with the Guardians, describing them as a “unique system of learning how to survive the Muslim Brotherhood as we teach the Christian Morality of Biblical Warfare.”


Klein told the UK’s Daily Mail that Bacile is a pseudonym and that he knows little about the filmmaker but that he is committed to the film, “like the rest of us.” Klein said that he did not feel guilty about Stevens’ death. “It’s not our fault, we told the truth,” he said.

Klein claimed that he and Bacile expected the movie would make Muslims mad, and he said that he also warned Bacile that he could be the “next Theo Van Gogh,” a reference to the Dutch filmmaker who was murdered in 2004 by a Muslim extremist angry about a film Van Gogh made that was perceived as insulting to Islam. Bacile’s film promotes the idea that the prophet Muhammad was a philanderer and a fraud who sanctioned rape and child abuse.

Romney and Paul Ryan campaign will set a new low by embracing and hoping for endorsements from the Uber Conservative and Religious Right leaders and their organizations and membership at "the Values Voters Summit" meeting this weekend.

And once again it is time for the annual conference of bigots and racists known as The Values Summit this year they are expecting VP wannabe Paul Ryan , House Majority leader Eric Cantor and Arizona governor "Show me your papers " Jan Brewer. With this stellar group of Republican notables the Republican Party will not be able or at least should not be given a free pass or allowed to distance themselves from the Values Summits agenda.
The question is will the mainstream Media focus on the extremism of the speakers at the Values Voters Summit or will they ignore it altogether or give it a bit of a white-wash.

Because this years summit being in an election year should get more coverage than usual by the Mainstream Media . This summit is in its own way has an agenda that's about as extreme as the KKK.


American Filmmaker Who Sparked Libya, Egypt Unrest Hates Obama, Hearts the GOP by Josh Glasstetter,
cross-posted from Right Wing Watch , Sept. 13, 2012

Morris Sadek, an Egyptian-American anti-Muslim activist, managed in one week’s time to take an overlooked YouTube video featuring a lame attack on Islam and turn it into a flashpoint with violent extremists, with deadly consequences. As the New York Times reported last night, Sadek drew attention to the obscure video clip “in an Arabic-language blog post and an e-mail newsletter in English publicizing the latest publicity stunt of the Florida pastor Terry Jones, reviled in the Muslim world for burning copies of the Koran.” Within days the clip was making the rounds in Egypt, prompting denunciations from politicians and generating press coverage, and culminating in protests and a deadly attack in Libya.

Sadek, who has worked with Jones in the past, says he is fighting for the rights of his fellow Coptic Christians in Egypt. Unfortunately he seems much more focused on attacking Muslims than helping the Copts. Sadek pulled his Facebook profile around 1 pm today, but we were able to take a look beforehand. Here’s what we found.

Sadek is a supporter of ACT! for America, which believes that President Obama has embraced the Muslim Brotherhood. The group rallied its supporters last month behind Michelle Bachmann’s anti-Muslim witch hunt against Huma Abedin and others. Here’s Sadek with ACT! For America presidentBrigitte Gabriel at one of the group’s 2010 events.


Sadek is a man of many interests. He’s a member of these groups, among many others: Islam is of the Devil, Warriors of Christ, and OBAMA IS THE WORST PRESIDENT EVER! Agree?. Sadek is also a fan of the Republican Party, George Bush, Allen West (for president no less!), and number of other Islamophobic, conservative and/or Republican institutions and leaders. Ironically enough, he’s also a fan of the American embassy in Cairo, which was overrun by the protests that he sparked.


CHICAGO (CBS) - Islamic rights advocates say there's been a rise in the number of threats directed at local Muslims. And some of these threats are being delivered right to their doors. CBS 2's Mike Puccinelli reports.

When Ahmed Rehab walks up to his suburban home these days it's with a new sense of awareness. That's because of what he found waiting for him in his mailbox just a few days ago, a postmarked typewritten hate-filled letter complete with a death threat.

"At the end of the letter it stated, 'the only good Arab is a DEAD Arab,'" said Rehab.

Americans were the ones after Russia had been kicked out of Afghanistan and the Taliban took over who were supposedly removed from power in Afghanistan. But the reality many of the Taliban leaders and the War Lords and the drug trade is defended by NATO and the United States. They are not there to defend the rights of Afghanistan women or of Afghanistans in general. This is just another War of Aggression like Iraq and neither one is justified .

NATO And the United States hated because they continue to support Drug War Lords- why is it they never really and seriously try to wipe out the Opium crops in Afghanistan. The problem is that NATO and the United States are only interested in Afghanistan and Pakistan because of their strategic position in the geopolitical overarching needs of the West to keep the oil flowing and as a military buffer .
