American "Fear of Sharia" Is Anything but "Silly" by A. Z. Mohamed June 29, 2017 at 4:00 am https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/10575/sharia-fear Share51   Comment To allay fears inspired in Americans by what he called a "right-wing caricature" of Islamic jurisprudence, Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf claimed, falsely, that it "does not presume to replace American law. It agrees with its underlying values and promotes them." In fact, both founders of political Islam, Sayyed Qutb and Hassan al-Banna, openly explained that Islam wishes to destroy all states and governments. A new problem seems to have sprung up: some disembodied entity at Google apparently decided, with a few swipes of a bear-paw, to censor all the contents from these historically accurate think-tank postings. What is Google trying to keep you from knowing? Material that would be more dangerous for you to know or more dangerous for you not to know? How considerate of Google to have made this decision for you! American fear of sharia is anything but "silly." It comes not a minute too soon. In a recent op-ed in the New York Daily News, Kuwaiti American Sufi cleric and activist Feisal Abdul Rauf -- who served more than 25 years as the imam of the Masjid al-Farah Mosque in New York City -- argued that nobody in the United States should be worried about the incorporation of Islamic law, sharia, into the legal system or should be protesting it. To allay fears inspired in Americans by what he called a "right-wing caricature" of Islamic jurisprudence, Rauf claimed, falsely, that sharia "does not presume to replace American law. It agrees with its underlying values and promotes them." In fact, both founders of political Islam, Sayyed Qutb[1] and Hassan al-Banna, openly explained that Islam wishes to destroy all states and governments.

(Images source: Wikimedia Commons) Hmm, a new problem seems to have sprung up: some disembodied entity at Google apparently decided, with a few swipes of a bear-paw, to censor all the contents from these historically accurate think-tank postings. What is Google trying to keep you from knowing? Material that would be more dangerous for you to know or more dangerous for you not to know? How considerate of Google to have made this decision for you! Anyhow, Rauf then goes on to say that sharia courts would never be sanctioned in the U.S. "The First Amendment, which prevents government establishment of religion, forbids it," he writes, incorrectly. The First Amendment, in its entirety, reads as follows: Amendment I. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. Rauf then proceeds to defend sharia against its detractors. "Sharia is not about amputations and stoning," he assured readers, again incorrectly. Rauf continues: "...Within the history of Islam, they have rarely occurred." A short search in google belies that. "What Islamic law does prescribe," he goes on, in a breathtaking example of taqiyya [obfuscation] and kitman [dissimulation] -- which are both permitted[2] in Islam under certain circumstances, such as to defend Islam -- "are the same do's [sic] and don'ts of the Ten Commandments — the social imperatives most of us recognize whatever our religion." Ironically, the Reuters photo selected by the Daily News op-ed editor to accompany the piece -- a snapshot of a Muslim bride at her "sharia" wedding – provided inadvertent evidence of Rauf's deceit. Sharia forbids taking, printing or disseminating photos except when required (such as to obtain a passport) or otherwise necessary. In addition, according to sharia, a female Muslim must cover her entire body, her hair and preferably her face -- so as not to arouse sexual desire in men other than her husband. As it is written in the Quran (33:59): "O Prophet! Tell your wives and daughters and the believing women that they should draw over themselves their jilbab (outer garments) (when in public); this will be more conducive to their being recognized (as decent women) and not harassed." One frequently quoted hadith (the actions and saying of the Prophet Muhammad) goes farther, branding women who are "dressed but appear to be naked" as "inviting to evil and will be inclined to it. They will not enter Jannah (paradise) and they will not even smell its fragrance." The bride in the photo illustrating Rauf's article is wearing a very revealing dress, which exposes not only her face and hair, but her entire upper body and a view of cleavage. Although it is likely that the picture was taken while she was with a group of women, it is now on public display, enabling men other than her husband to see it. As someone who has shared the article on social media, Rauf would be considered by sharia to be among those responsible for "inviting to evil" through its dissemination, as would the bride herself, the groom and her other male guardians, such as her father and brothers. In any country governed by sharia, such as Iran, these transgressors could expect not only divine retribution, but punishment ("ta'zir"), meted out by a qadi (judge), Muslim ruler, religious police or other disciplinary forces. This punishment is often imprisonment or brutal lashing. In Saudi Arabia, for example, a woman was arrested last December for tweeting a picture of herself without a hijab or abaya. Such instances are completely absent from Rauf's article. Rather than whitewashing the Islamic legal system, and trying to assuage what the headline of the piece calls the "silly American fear" of sharia, Rauf -- and the family and imam of the Muslim bride in the photo -- should be grateful for living in the United States, where they are not subjected to such cruel and senseless punishments. American fear of sharia is anything but "silly." It comes not a minute too soon. A.Z. Mohamed is a Muslim born and raised in the Middle East. [1] "any system, in which the final decisions are referred to human beings, and in which the source of all authority are human [is doomed to failure because it] deifies human beings by designating others than God as lords over men. This declaration means that the usurped authority of God be returned to Him and the usurpers be thrown out -- those who by themselves devise laws for other to follow, thus elevating themselves to the status of lords and reducing others to the status of slaves."

In 2014, There Were 6 Years To Go On The Muslim Plan For America. So Now We Are In 2017 And Things Are Getting Close.

30-Year Muslim Plan To Control America Has Six Years To Go

by Shoebat Foundation on October 9, 2014 in Featured, General, IkhwanLeaks

By Walid Shoebat and Ben Barrack
**SHOEBAT EXCLUSIVE**

Twenty-five years ago, Muslim Brotherhood spiritual leader Yusuf al-Qaradwai traveled to America and unpacked his plan for a Muslim takeover that would begin one year later and take 30 years to complete. It included a key component and tactic known asMuruna. Like the Ebola virus, it is extremely effective at carrying out its deadly mission.

Since discovering a shocking photo earlier this year that showed al-Qaradawi at the Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Falls Church, VA with then mosque chairman Bassam Estwani, a third figure in the photo has been overlooked – until now. Shoebat.com has determined that the man sitting between al-Qaradawi and Estwani is Shaker Elsayed, the current Imam at Dar al-Hijrah (2005 – present) and former Secretary General of the Muslim American Society (MAS), a Muslim Brotherhood front group (2000-2005).

Yusuf al-Qaradawi (L), Shaker Elsayed (C), and Bassam Estwani (R)

Dar al-Hijrah was opened in 1991 and MAS was founded in 1992, seven years before al-Qaradawi was banned from the U.S. in 1999. Elsayed did not become an Imam at Dar al-Hijrah until 2005. Yet, somehow he was able to have a seat at the table with al-Qaradawi inside Dar al-Hijrah years before becoming a leader with MAS.

Elsayed’s history with Estwani, who has been a mover and shaker with U.S. politicians – to include Bill and Hillary Clinton as early as 1995 – dates back to about the same time frame. Here is a more recent photo of Estwani and Elsayed in Honolulu, Hawaii:

Elsayed (circled) with Estwani (far right) in Honolulu.

As Shoebat.com reported, al-Qaradawi is the primary scholar of an insidious Sunni Islamic tactic known as Muruna. Westerners have rightly begun to understand Taqiyya – lying to protect the faith of Islam – but this is a Shiite term and practice. Muruna is a much more immediate threat to the U.S. In fact, any Muslim Brotherhood infiltrator of the U.S. Government is very likely employing it right now.

Get the latest book from Walid Shoebat, The Case FOR ISLAMOPHOBIA: Jihad by the Word; America’s Final Warning. It includes an entire chapter on Muruna

Though the photo of the three men inside Dar al-Hijrah is undated, it was likely taken circa 1997, nearly a decade after al-Qaradawi introduced Muruna to stealth Muslim Brotherhood operatives in the U.S. Thanks to Steve Emerson’s 1994 PBS documentary Jihad in America, we have a screen shot of what al-Qaradawi looked like the year he brought perhaps the most deceptive Muslim tactic yet to America’s shores and inside our walls:

Yusuf al-Qaradawi at Dar al-Hijrah (L) and Kansas City several years earlier (R).

Of course, what can be concluded is that al-Qaradawi’s plan was in full swing as he spoke at Dar al-Hijrah. Muruna had most certainly been introduced to Elsayed and Estwani. In the case of al-Qaradawi and Elsayed’s MAS, Muslim youths were targeted specifically.

It was al-Qaradawi who introduced Muruna to the American Muslim community in December of 1989 at the annual conference of the Association of Muslim Youth Forums.The Muslim Brotherhood leader introduced this tactic along with a 30-year plan (1990-2020) of conquest for Muslims in the U.S. It would include a tactic that would permit Islamic prohibitions:

Muruna was designed to catapult and advance Sharia by using Western means. If one thinks that Sharia, with its harsh code, is problematic enough, how about the elimination of the kinder, gentler laws? Muruna is literally accomplished by permitting behavior normally so eschewed by Sharia that Westerners logically assume a more moderate version of Islam when such prohibitions are suddenly permitted. Westerners’ eyes are, in fact, deceiving them. Muruna is about going to great lengths to gain interests through a much deeper level of deception while simultaneously lowering the guard and gaining the support of the infidels.

An archived page of the MAS website from 2003 – smack dab in the middle of Elsayed’s tenure there – states the following:

The call and the spirit of the movement reached the shores of North America with arrival of the Muslim student and immigrants in the late 50’s and early 60’s. These early pioneers and Islamic Movement followers established in 1963. Muslim Student Association (MSA) of U.S and Canada as the rallying point in their endeavor to serve Islam and Muslims in the North America scene. Other services and outreach organization soon followed, such as North America Islamic Trust (NAIT), Islamic Medical Association (IMA), Muslim Arab Youth Association (MAYA) and Muslim Youth of North America (MYNA), to name a few.

MAS was founded just two years after the commencement of al-Qaradawi’s 30-year plan and set out to follow al-Qaradawi’s prescription to the letter. A few years later, the man who would become MAS Secretary General was taking notes as al-Qaradawi spoke inside a mosque that would be visited by three 9/11 hijackers and Fort Hood jihadist Nidal Malik Hasan, who was inspired by Anwar al-Awlaki, a man who served as the Imam of the mosque at the time of the 9/11 attacks; an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing named Mohammed al-Hanooti became the mosque’s Imam in 1995. Ten years later, Elsayed would be a successor to Hanooti as Imam of Dar al-Hijrah, a position he holds today.

In March of 2000, Estwani wrote a letter to President Clinton, which he handed to Clinton personally (this is backed up by Clinton’s handwritten notes appearing on the letter). It included the following:

I was also honored in being given the opportunity to invite you personally to visit our Islamic center and mosque in Falls Church, Virginia (Dar Al-Hijrah Islamic Center), which is considered one of the most active and largest Islamic centers in the United States. I have been repeatedly honored by your invitations and warm receptions at the white house, especially at the Breakfast Prayers since September 1995. You and the first lady have graciously hosted the Muslim community on several occasions and we are eternally grateful for your and her gracious hospitality and reception. We wish her and you the best always.

It is more than a little conceivable that the chairman of Dar al-Hijrah would not only curry favor from the Office of the White House but also seek protection of his mosque from a government that never likes to eat crow or hold its superiors accountable. With each photo taken of Estwani with prominent politicians – and there is a treasure trove that includes Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Rep. Dennis Kucinich, Speaker Dennis Hastert, Senator Warner, Rep. Jim Moran, Rep. Thomas Davis, Rep. Cynthia McKinney, Hillary Clinton and others – the more cover he’d get. Not exposing Dar al-Hijrah to complete sunlight had the effect of protecting the office of the President of the United States. As Shoebat.comreported, Clinton’s successor George W. Bush had additional reasons to protect Clinton.

Dar al-Hijrah’s Estwani (R) meets with President Clinton (L) in the White House.

How the case of Anwar al-Awlaki was handled is very instructive. Thanks to documents obtained in a Freedom of Information Act request filed by Judicial Watch, it was revealed just how interested the FBI was in al-Awlaki in the days, weeks, and months after 9/11. In particular, they were interested in his associations with those three hijackers. What has not been demonstrated is the FBI’s interest in al-Awlaki’s superiors and colleagues at the mosque.

Any honest pursuit of al-Awlaki would have led to overturning a rock that revealed al-Hanooti, Estwani, Elsayed, their connections to al-Qaradawi and ultimately to a much larger Muslim Brotherhood agenda that included a 30-year plan. Instead, as the documents indicate, there was significant tension between the 9/11 Commission investigators and the National Commission on Terrorism (NCT) over access to al-Awlaki. While NCT had maintained contact with al-Awlaki, who said he was willing to talk to authorities, the 9/11 Commission failed to locate him and certainly seemed to get resistance from NCT.

Conventional wisdom has been that al-Awlaki became an informant. In 2002, he was permitted to escape to Yemen despite an outstanding warrant for his arrest. Could it be that his release was more about protecting the careers, reputations, and legacies of politicians duped by Muruna, a tactic that continues to be both used by the enemy and ignored by our leaders? As further evidence of this, consider the Fort Hood jihad attack that saw 14 dead and 32 wounded . There was an al-Awlaki connection in the form of several emails between he and the shooter, who also attended Dar al-Hijrah. The attack would ultimately be labeled ‘workplace violence’ and the victims were not afforded the honors and benefits they deserved. Nearly two years prior to Hasan being found guilty and convicted, al-Awlaki was killed in a drone strike in Yemen; dead men tell no tales.

The man credited with hiring al-Awlaki at Dar al-Hijrah is Esam Omeish, who served as the head of MAS after Elsayed became Imam there in 2005, as Shoebat.com reported.

During the time that al-Awlaki was the Imam at Dar al-Hijrah, he was also a Chaplain who sat on the Muslim Students Association (MSA) Board with Esam’s brother Mohamed Omeish at George Washington University (GWU).

Elsayed’s MAS
In addition to Elsayed being one of Al-Awlaki’s successors as Imam at Dar al-Hijrah, there’s evidence that al-Awlaki was a colleague of Elsayed at MAS, courtesy of another FBI document obtained by Judicial Watch. The document refers to both Awlaki and an Imam named Suhaib Webb as possibly being “associated” with MAS; both men attended a fundraiser as colleagues just two days prior to the 9/11 attacks.

It was Shoebat.com that reported on Webb’s attendance at the U.S.-Islamic World Forum (US-IWF) in 2009 as a representative of MAS. Then Commander of U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) David Petraeus was one of the forum’s speakers. Webb, who’d been the Imam of the Islamic Society of Greater Oklahoma City (ISGOC) attended by Alton Nolen who beheaded a woman last month, would later become the Imam of the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center attended by the Boston Marathon bombers.

Screenshot from attendee list at 2009 US-IWF.

Webb also has a connection to Dar al-Hijrah through its current outreach director Johari Abdul-Malik and unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing Siraj Wahhaj. Wahhaj is the Imam at the Brooklyn mosque attended multiple times by Sheikh Omar Abdelrahman (the “Blind Sheikh”) convicted as the mastermind in that attack. Webb wrote glowingly of Wahhaj after visiting the mosque in 2008, as Shoebat.com reported.

Here is Elsayed calling for armed jihad in America:

Muruna in Practice
A perfect example of Muruna would include a Muslim woman marrying a Jewish man if it afforded her stealth and cover while gaining access to power centers. Consider Huma Abedin, the very close adviser to Hillary Clinton who served as then Secretary of State Clinton’s Deputy Chief of Staff. In 2010, she married a Jewish man who also happened to be a U.S. Congressman – Anthony Weiner. Ironically, Bill Clinton presided over the ceremony. Circa 1996, Abedin became an assistant editor with the Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs (IMMA), an institution with the goal of converting all Muslim minority lands into Muslim majority lands.

To bring this all back to al-Qaradawi, consider that Abedin’s mother Saleha Mahmood (Abedin) is also one of 63 leaders of the Muslim Sisterhood as Shoebat.com first revealed. Serving as an associate editor with Huma was her brother Hassan Abedin. The IMMA was founded by a Saudi named Abdullah Omar Naseeef, who also served on the Institute’s Board for several years.

As Shoebat.com also revealed, Hassan Abedin and Naseef also served with none other than Yusuf al-Qaradawi on the Board of the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies (OCIS) from 2004-2008.

To illustrate just how effective Muruna can be, KFI 640 talk show host Bill Carroll interviewed Walid in June of 2011, shortly after we discovered Abedin’s familial connections to the Muslim Brotherhood. This interview took place prior to our discovery of Muruna and one of the chief reasons that Carroll dismissed our findings had to do with Abedin’s marriage to Weiner:

A few years prior to al-Awlaki joining the MSA at GWU, Abedin served on the same board as Head of Social Committee, as Shoebat.com revealed:

Huma Abedin served on Board of Muslim Student Association (MSA) at George Washington University (GWU)

It is important to point out that all of the aforementioned activity chronicled in this post has taken place within the 30-year window prescribed by al-Qaradawi in 1989.

For Those Who Do Not Understand, Islam Allows Lying To Infidels, In Fact It Encourages It If It Advances Islam

Lies about Islamic Taqiyya (Dissimulation)
Dr. Carson Right: Washington Post and Academics Wrong

• Tell that to Ka'b ibn Ashraf, whose head was cut off. for The prophet of Islam allowed his followers to lie to the Jew to slaughter him.
• Muslims deceived non-Muslims not because they were being persecuted for being Muslim — according to the Washington Post's definition of taqiyya — but in order to make Islam supreme.
• Dr. Ben Carson got it right when he said that taqiyya "allows, and even encourages, you to lie to achieve your goals." The prophet makes that clear.

Dr. Ben Carson's recent assertion that the Islamic doctrine of taqiyya encourages Muslims "to lie to achieve your goals" has prompted the Washington Post's Glenn Kessler to quote a number of academics to show that the presidential candidate got it wrong:

The word "taqiyya" derives from the Arabic words for "piety" and "fear of God" and indicates when a person is in a state of caution, said Khaled Abou El Fadl, a professor of law at the University of California at Los Angeles and a leading authority on Islam.
[...]
"Yes, it is permissible to hide the fact you are Muslim" if a person is under threat, "as long as it does not involve hurting another person," Abou El Fadl said.

The other academics whom Kessler quotes — including Omid Safi, director of the Duke University Islamic Studies Center, and Noah Feldman of Harvard Law School — make the same argument: yes, taqiyya is in the Koran but it only permits deception in the case of self-preservation, nothing more.
Not exactly.
Although the word taqiyya is related to the Arabic word "piety" and its root meaning is "protect" or "guard against" — and the Koran verses that advocate it (3:28 and 16:106) do so in the context of self-preservation from persecution — that is not the whole story.

Unfortunately, none of the academics quoted by Kessler acknowledges that the Koran is not the only textual source to inform Muslim action. They ignore the Hadith, the collected words and deeds of Muhammad. Koran 33:2, for instance, commands Muslims to follow Muhammad's example, and his example — also known as the prophet's Sunna — is derived from the many volumes of Hadith.
The importance of Muhammad's example is seen in that the Sunnis, approximately 90% of the world's Muslim population, are named after his Sunna. As one Muslim cleric puts it, "Much of Islam will remain mere abstract concepts without Hadith [whence the Sunna is derived]. We would never know how to pray, fast, pay zakah, or make pilgrimage without the illustration found in Hadith..."
It is therefore either careless or disingenuous for Kessler and his "experts" to ignore Muhammad's example as recorded in the Hadith in their discussion of taqiyya.
As usual, for the complete truth, one must turn to scholarly books written in Arabic. According to Dr. Sami Mukaram, an Islamic studies professor specializing in taqiyya, and author of the only academic book exclusively devoted to it, "Taqiyya in order to deceive the enemy is permissible."[1]
This sounds quite close enough to Carson's assertion that taqiyya allows Muslims "to lie to achieve your goals."
As proof, Mukaram documents two anecdotes from Muhammad's Sunna — his example to Muslims — that make clear that the prophet allowed his followers to lie and deceive non-Muslims above and beyond the issue of self-preservation:

The Assassination of Ka'b ibn Ashraf

An elderly Jewish leader, Ka'b ibn Ashraf, mocked Muhammad, prompting the prophet to exclaim, "Who will kill this man who has hurt Allah and his messenger?" A young Muslim named Ibn Maslama volunteered on condition that to get close enough to Ka'b to murder him, he needed to be allowed to lie to the Jew.
Allah's messenger agreed. Ibn Maslama traveled to Ka'b and began to complain about Muhammad until his disaffection from Islam became so convincing that Ka'b eventually dropped his guard and befriended him.
After behaving as his friend for some time, Ibn Maslama eventually appeared with another Muslim pretending to have apostatized, slaughtered Ka'b' and brought his head to Muhammad to the usual triumphant cries of "Allahu Akbar!"

The Disbanding of the Confederates

In another account, after Muhammad and his followers had attacked, plundered, and massacred a number of non-Muslim Arabs and Jews, the Jews and Arabs assembled, poised to annihilate the Muslims, to try to neutralize the Muslims once and for all (at the Battle of the Trench, 627). But then Naim bin Mas'ud, one of the leaders of these "confederates," as they became known in history, secretly went to Muhammad and converted to Islam. The prophet asked him to return to his tribesmen and allies — without revealing that he had joined the Muslim camp to try to get the Jews and Arabs to abandon the siege. "For," Muhammad assured him, "war is deceit."
Mas'ud returned, pretending to be loyal to the Arabs and Jews, and began giving them bad advice. He also subtly instigated quarrels between the various tribes until, no longer trusting each other, they disbanded.
Mas'ud became a hero in Islamic tradition. He is often seen as being responsible for helping an embryonic Islam grow at a time when its existence was threatened. One English language Muslim site even recommends his actions as illustrative of how Muslims can subvert non-Muslims.
In the two examples above, Muslims deceived non-Muslims not because they were being persecuted for being Muslim — according to the Washington Post's definition of taqiyya — but in order to make Islam supreme. (The Arabs and Jews met Muhammad at the Battle of the Trench because Muhammad and his followers first attacked them at the Battle of Badr and massacred hundreds of them on other occasions.)
Despite these stories being part of the Sunna to which Sunnis adhere, UCLA's Abou El Fadl — the primary expert quoted by the Washington Post in an effort to show that Islam does not promote deceit — claims that "there is no concept that would encourage a Muslim to lie to pursue a goal. That is a complete invention."
Tell that to Ka'b ibn Ashraf, whose head was cut off for believing Muslim taqiyya. The prophet of Islam allowed his followers to lie to the Jew to slaughter him.
Dr. Ben Carson got it right when he said that taqiyya "allows, and even encourages, you to lie to achieve your goals." The prophet makes that clear.

Combine Obama's Friendship With Iran And Taqiyya, You Start To Understand The President's Moves In The Middle East.

IN TELEVISED SPEECH, OBAMA REMOVES ALL DOUBT HE’S PRO-ISLAM

SEPTEMBER 21, 2014 EDITOR ISIS, ISLAM, MUSLIMS, OBAMA, TAQIYYA

FacebookGoogle PlusTwitterPinterestLinkedIn

Americans of all stripes are concerned about the threat of ISIS.

Some view the rogue terrorist group as nothing more than a tribal sect that will roll around in the dust with their tribal rivals.

And others view ISIS as an extreme threat to American sovereignty and think the scourge should be dealt with quickly, and brutally.

In an NBC poll of 1000 Americans, “Sixty-one percent of voters supported military action against ISIS. However, 40 percent of respondents said action should be limited to air strikes only, while 34 percent believed it should include air strikes and combat troops. Fifteen percent said no military action should be taken, and 11 percent of respondents were unsure.”

What is certain is most Americans think Obama has utterly dropped the ball on the situation with his approval rating for foreign policy reaching an all-time low of 32%.

The truth is President Obama has been dragging his heels, and his position has flip flopped regarding ISIS several times in the past few weeks.

It wasn’t until being pressed on all sides as to how he planned on dealing with ISIS that Obama managed to pull himself away from the golf course and have a nice “sit down” with the American people and level with his country on the threat of ISIS.

And while Obama’s speech might have seemed like a move in the right direction, after all, he promised heavy handed military action to “degrade and destroy” the Islamic State insurgency wherever it might rise up…he also showed his hand in how he regards Islam.

Here’s what Americans need to realize.

More important than dealing with the threat of ISIS, Obama wants Americans to know the Islamic State terrorists “are not Islamic.”

As he said, no religion “condones the killing of innocents.”

The question is, why is Obama trying to make Islam appear peaceful and non-confrontational when the totality of history clearly points out the opposite is true.

Islam is not a peaceful religion, and the president knows it.

His use of force against IS is nothing more than a diversionary tactic meant to appease Americans ignorant of the true nature of Islam.

The jihadis and the extremists of the Islamic world are not extreme at all, they’re the ones who are following the prophet Muhammad to a T.

While Christians are admonished to “hate what is evil and cling to what is good”… Muslims are told to:

Kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [disbelief] is worse than killing…but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah [disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah] and worship is for Allah alone. But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun (the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.)

When Obama says Islam isn’t violent, he is using an age-old Muslim tactic known as Taqiyya.

Taqiyya requires Muslims to lie when confronted about the truth of their doctrine and requires they deceive others so they might be able to gain a better advantage of establishing the caliphate.

While the explanation of Taqiyya is far deeper than a two-sentence summary, Obama has made it abundantly clear he is familiar with the doctrine as he is lying to the American people in regards to the nature of not only Islam, but the actions of IS.

As he said: “Now let’s make two things clear: ISIL is not Islamic. No religion condones the killing of innocents, and the vast majority of ISIL’s victims have been Muslim.”

As if Muslims killing Muslims is in any way proof that Islam is not violent… in fact, it’s quite the opposite.

Obama is simply playing into a grand, century old historical narrative that could help cement a caliphate not only in the middle east, but here in the U.S. as well.

The military actions Americans will take against IS will only quell the violence for a short time.

Expect more because Muslims of all stripes are hungry for the caliphate and won’t let airstrikes deter them for a second.
