After Mueller broke their poor little hearts, the Resistance once again overflows with fantasies of Trump being locked up. And CNN is licking its ratings chops.


	And that's what it's been about.


	The investigations serve their own purpose, they maintain surveillance on political opponents, cripple their networks and maintain a perpetual funk of scandal around them.


	Trials are a test and even the heavily rigged D.C. federal trials have their legal limits. And an actual trial, even if it ended in a conviction, would very nearly defeat the true purpose of the game.


	The purpose of manufacturing a threat is building and maintaining the machine meant to fight it. The fight isn't meant to be won, only perpetuated.&nbsp;


	Trump becomes a pretext for targeting a wide range of conservatives. Every action is met with a reaction that further boosts the "Fortify Democracy" complex and expands their range of powers and tactics.


	The Left's goal is the fascist one of consolidating and seizing direct and total power over all Americans. Their means of doing so are...


	1. Manufacturing a crisis


	2. Radicalizing elements of society to build a radical coalition


	Seizing police powers is tricky business, but invariably involves manufacturing some sort of extremism threat. Spygate moved beyond Clinton administration era paranoia about militias to go after a broad spectrum of the conservative movement. Trump is the thinnest slice of the onion. The point is to normalize this kind of thing until America closely resembles a totalitarian country where the political opposition is routinely subjected to investigations and suppressed with police powers.&nbsp;


	The Obama administration, like the JFK and FDR administrations, marked the broad use of police powers against political opponents. The Biden administration is going beyond Obama. Under Obama, surveillance was used against domestic political opponents. Under Biden, they're building it out to more direct raids and information seizures. How long will it take until they get more ambitious?


	History suggests it won't be that long.


	But for now building a police state using a manufactured emergency is the central goal. The pretexts, as always with lefties, matters much less than the power.

The Trump Investigations Are About Building a Leftist Police State

While Twitter banned former President Trump along with a growing list of conservatives, it continues to provide a platform for Islamist terror groups and leaders.


	Including Supreme Leader Grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/JasonMBrodsky/status/1558121314313031687">who used Twitter</a> to endorse Iran's ongoing murder fatwa calling for the killing of author Salman Rushdie.


	&nbsp;<img height="402" width="680" class="media-element file-default" data-delta="1" src="https://cms.frontpagemag.com/sites/default/files/uploads/2022/08/khamenei.jpg" alt="" />


	&nbsp;


	&nbsp;


	Let's recall that fatwa again.

<blockquote>
	
		"In the name of Allah... I am informing all brave Muslims of the world that the author of&nbsp; The Satanic Verses , a text written, edited, and published against Islam, the Prophet of Islam, and the Qu’ran, along with all the editors and publishers aware of its contents, are condemned to death. I call on all valiant Muslims wherever they may be in the world to kill them without delay, so that no one will dare insult the sacred beliefs of Muslims henceforth. Whoever is killed in this cause will be a martyr, Allah willing, Meanwhile if someone has access to the author of the book but is incapable of carrying out the execution, he should inform the people so that [Rushdie] is punished for his actions.

	
		May peace and blessings of Allah be upon you."
</blockquote>


	This is what Twitter is fine with.


	Even after Rushdie's stabbing, Twitter has done nothing. It's not concerned about violence. It's a leftist company allied with Islamists which is fine with any kind of doxxing, violent threats and violence as long as it's directed at those it deems to be ideological enemies.

First things first, let's look at how open-ended the search warrant is.


	We were repeatedly told that the documents in question&nbsp;were secured in boxes in a particular room with a padlock on it. That there had been ongoing negotiations about turning those documents over.


	The search warrant however sought a broad spectrum search of "locations to be searched include the "45 Office," all storage rooms, and all other rooms or areas within the premises used or available to be used by FPOTUS and his staff and in which boxes or documents could be stored, including all structures or buildings on the estate."


	Pretty much everything.


	The list of property to be seized begins with classified documents and escalates from there to... everything.


	Here's Item C. "Any government and/or Presidential Records created between January 20, 2017, and January 20, 2021".


	The search for classified documents is a pretext for a fishing expedition by agents of the ruling party.


	What's the first item on the list?


	"Executive Grant of Clemency re: Roger Jason Stone, Jr."


	This is not about classified documents.

Search Warrant Shows FBI Raid Was a Fishing Expedition

Author Salman Rushdie, who was forced to spend a chunk of his life in hiding because his book, The Satanic Verses, offended Islamic religious authorities in Iran who imposed a murder fatwa on him, was stabbed in the neck and had to be airlifted to a hospital when he was <a href="https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/salman-rushdie-stabbed-eyewitnesses-say-he-was-hit-10-15-times-it-lasted-20-seconds-3250217">attacked on stage</a>.

<blockquote>
	
		&nbsp;Author Salman Rushdie, being stabbed at an event in New York State on Friday, suffered "10 to 15" blows in the attack, eyewitnesses said. One of them said she thought it was "a stunt" at first.

	
		"This guy ran on to platform and started pounding on Mr&nbsp;Rushdie," said Rabbi Charles Savenor, who was in the audience for the lecture at Chautauqua Institution, about 100 km from the city.&nbsp;

	
		A reporter from AP said the attacker "punched or stabbed&nbsp;Mr Rushdie&nbsp;10 to 15 times".

	
		"At first you're like, ‘What's going on?' And then it became abundantly clear in a few seconds that he was being beaten," Mr Savenor told the news agency.&nbsp;He said the attack lasted about 20 seconds.
</blockquote>


	The media, at least in this country, has wrapped itself in knots to avoid using the "I" word.&nbsp;


	Back when Rushdie wrote The Satanic Verses, it was controversial. Today, any kind of criticism of Mohammed is considered hate speech and censored to such a degree that the media would not even report what an Indian elected official said about Mohammed's pedophilic tendencies, only to denounce it as hurtful and hateful to Muslims.


	Today, a new author could never publish something like that. And the media is uncomfortable even discussing what it is that Rushdie wrote.


	The various condemnations likewise don't mention Islam, Islamic terrorism or any beyond generic concepts like "freedom of expression."


	Long before this attack, the sharia censorship that Iran wanted to impose on Americans had already been achieved.

Biden's a little over the age and generation of participation trophies, but it's incredible what a low bar is being set.


	The media has spent over a week taking a victory lap on Biden's behalf because he managed to get a watered-down version of the bill through after it was held hostage by two senators from his own party.


	As the signature accomplishment for a year and likely a presidential term, it's really pathetic.


	Even in isolation from the national disaster that is the economy, the massive crime and all the other political, social, cultural, medical and assorted other problems, it would be a pretty poor accomplishment for the president of a party that holds majorities in the House and the Senate, to claim victory for managing to get a bill passed.


	Especially when that bill was blocked by two Senate members from his own party who determined the final content of it.


	Never mind doing a time when most people are focused on inflation, crime, diminishing hopes and national conflict.


	But&nbsp;Joe "Low Expectations" Biden always seems to get graded on a curve.


	Did he manage to recite most of his teleprompter speech without fumbling it too much? A+


	Is his approval rating at 40%? Gold star!


	Is the catastrophic inflation only slightly higher in the latest selectively categorized report? He's the new FDR! Happy days are here again!


	I don't know if this is a general attempt by the media to salvage the reputation of the Democrats ahead of the midterms or to make Biden feel like he can retire a winner. Probably both. Certainly the former. But even Obama wasn't this condescended to for pretty much just getting out of bed in the morning.

A just-released Pentagon report suggests Afghanistan is spiraling toward civil war with the number of terrorist attacks,&nbsp;casualties and displacements of Afghans hitting record highs, thanks in no small part to former President Obama’s precipitous&nbsp;withdrawal of US combat troops starting in 2014. 
	 
	As the Afghan government risks losing roughly 40 percent of the country to terrorists and insurgents, Congress proposes issuing&nbsp;2,500 more visas to Afghan nationals to allow them to immigrate to America, a move that raises security concerns. The&nbsp;Pentagon says ISIS has established beachheads in several Afghan districts, along with al-Qaeda and the Taliban, and these&nbsp;and other terrorist groups could use the visa program to infiltrate the US. 
	 
	The new&nbsp;<a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&amp;q=https://www.sigar.mil/pdf/quarterlyreports/2017-04-30qr.pdf&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1493880570790000&amp;usg=AFQjCNELrZp7ivX6JkpxmN8Zs0ap5Kl8nQ" href="https://www.sigar.mil/pdf/quarterlyreports/2017-04-30qr.pdf" target="_blank">report</a>&nbsp;from the Defense Department’s special inspector general for Afghan reconstruction paints a picture of chaos&nbsp;and instability throughout the country. Among the shocking findings: 
	 
	* The number of terrorist attacks and other security incidents throughout 2016 and continuing into the first quarter of 2017 reached their highest level on record. 
	 
	* Casualties suffered by Afghan security forces "in the fight against the Taliban and other insurgents continue to be shockingly high,” with 807 killed and 1,328 wounded in just the first six weeks of this year. 
	 
	* Conflict-related civilian casualties in Afghanistan rose to 11,418 in 2016 – the highest on record.&nbsp; 
	 
	* A whopping 660,639 people in Afghanistan fled their homes due to conflict in 2016 – a 40 percent jump over 2015 and the highest number of displacements on record.&nbsp; 
	 
	* The Afghan government now controls barely 60 percent of the country's 407 districts, while the Taliban and other insurgents control or threaten to control the rest. 
	 
	"Preventing insurgents from increasing their control or influence of districts continues to be a challenge" for the Afghan government, the&nbsp;<a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&amp;q=https://www.sigar.mil/pdf/quarterlyreports/2017-04-30qr.pdf&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1493880570790000&amp;usg=AFQjCNELrZp7ivX6JkpxmN8Zs0ap5Kl8nQ" href="https://www.sigar.mil/pdf/quarterlyreports/2017-04-30qr.pdf" target="_blank">report</a>&nbsp;warned, noting that Kabul’s control of the country has dropped from 72 percent in November 2015 to just under&nbsp;60 percent today. 
	 
	"Afghanistan remains in the grip of a deadly war,” inspector general John Sopko said, and one that has seen insurgents gaining more and more territory over the past 18 months. 
	 
	The 2,500 special visas for Afghan refugees,&nbsp;championed by Democratic Rep. Earl Blumenauer of Oregon,&nbsp;were stuffed into the&nbsp;compromise spending bill and are up for consideration on the Hill this week. 
	 
	US visas issued annually to Afghans nearly doubled under the Obama administration, soaring from 2,454 in 2008 to 4,156 in&nbsp;2015, the latest year for which data are kept. 
	 
	Experts say the number of Afghan refugees recently resettled in the US is on the rise. 
	 
	“I’ve noticed an uptick,” Refugee Resettlement Watch director Ann G. Corcoran said. “The number is increasing." 
	 
	Few in Washington are raising alarms about this largely uncontrolled influx of new Afghan immigrants, but the security risk&nbsp;compounds the risk posed by Syrian refugees. 
	 
	Though their numbers are relatively small next to the projected flood of Syrians, experts fear the Afghan immigrants could&nbsp;include jihadists who decide to lash out at their generous Western host -- as they have in Germany, which is deporting 12,000 Afghan&nbsp;refugees after&nbsp;some carried out terrorist attacks there. 
	 
	Several recent Afghan immigrants have already been busted for terrorism in America, including: Afghan refugee Hayatulla&nbsp;Dawari, who got as far as naturalization before authorities learned of his involvement with an Afghan terror group and&nbsp;convicted him in&nbsp;2014; and Afghan refugee Sohiel Omar Kabir, who was sentenced in 2015 to 25 years in federal prison for&nbsp;providing material support to terrorists and conspiring to kill Americans. 
	 
	Afghan immigration, moreover, factors into recent “homegrown" terrorism, including the Orlando, Fla., and Chelsea, N.Y., attacks. 
	 
	Assurances that Afghan refugees will be vetted for security risks and monitored while in America are not comforting. The&nbsp;Pentagon can’t even keep track of the Afghans it brings here for military training exercises designed to help them go back&nbsp;and defend their own country. 
	 
	Alarmingly, at least 45 Afghan soldiers have&nbsp;<a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&amp;q=http://nypost.com/2017/01/28/trump-left-countries-with-high-terror-risk-off-his-banned-list/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1493880570790000&amp;usg=AFQjCNGIhZKvJStTAFHLfw4RQypkomR6fA" href="http://nypost.com/2017/01/28/trump-left-countries-with-high-terror-risk-off-his-banned-list/" target="_blank">disappeared</a>&nbsp;in the US over the past two years while training at military&nbsp;installations. Many of these AWOL immigrants, who also came here on&nbsp;special visas, have extensive training in weapons and&nbsp;explosives.

	Further raising security alarms, the Taliban has infiltrated the Afghan security forces supplying these special immigrants. The Pentagon inspector general says the penetration&nbsp;is so deep that&nbsp;the Taliban are obtaining much of their weapons and ammunition, as well as&nbsp;gasoline, from US-supplied Afghan soldiers. 
	 
	“Taliban commanders give instructions to their forces to buy weapons, ammunition and fuel from the Afghan army and&nbsp;police,” according to the Pentagon report. 
	 
	Afghanistan is conspicuously absent from the list of seven terror-prone countries in President Trump’s indefinite immigration ban, even though al-Qaeda has reopened terrorist training&nbsp;camps there and ISIS is operating in several districts.

	"This is the highest concentration of terrorist groups anywhere in the&nbsp;world,” it says. 
	 
	The department also notes that “the Taliban and other insurgents&nbsp;have gained territory over the past two years,” as Obama hastily withdrew&nbsp;US troops, and now threaten to control more than 40 percent of the country.

PENTAGON: TERRORISTS THREATENING TO CONTROL 40% OF AFGHANISTAN

A just-released Pentagon report suggests Afghanistan is spiraling toward civil war with the number of terrorist attacks,&nbsp;casualties and displacements of

The Pentagon has agreed to formally review an anti-terror training program taught to special forces by a private contractor for material deemed offensive to Islam and Muslims, even though the Muslim group that lodged a complaint against the allegedly “Islamophobic” program has been accused by&nbsp;the Justice Department of supporting terrorism and is currently banned from outreach activities by the FBI. 
	 
	The instructor hired to teach the program says he fears his class might not get a fair hearing, because military brass have assigned the review to a Muslim military chaplain who graduated from a radical Saudi-funded Islamic school raided by federal agents after 9/11 on suspicion of&nbsp;terrorist activities. He is their second choice for conducting the review. They had originally picked a more radical military chaplain to inspect the training materials before learning he has ties to an imam with a history of ministering to Muslims later convicted&nbsp;of terrorism. 
	 
	Brass decided to launch the review after receiving a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cair.com/press-center/press-releases/14233-cair-asks-air-force-to-drop-islamophobic-instructor-linked-to-anti-muslim-propaganda-group.html" target="_blank">letter</a>&nbsp;from the Council on American-Islamic Relations last month demanding the commander of US Air Force Special Operations sever ties with longtime counterterrorism instructor Patrick&nbsp;Dunleavy, claiming his lessons "contain anti-Islamic content.” CAIR, a suspected terrorist front organization, did not cite any examples of content from his “Dynamics of International Terrorism”&nbsp;<a href="http://www.afsoc.af.mil/Units/Air-Force-Special-Operations-Air-Warfare-Center/USAFSOS/DIT/" target="_blank">course</a>&nbsp;to support its claim. 
	 
	Dunleavy formerly served as deputy inspector general of New York State prisons’ criminal intelligence division and also worked with the NYPD’s intelligence division for several years. His five-day course, which he’s taught complaint-free at the AIr Force for several years, covers homegrown terrorism and prison&nbsp;radicalization, which tie directly into recent ISIS cases.CAIR claims to be a “Muslim civil-rights organization,” but the feds have&nbsp;<a href="https://www.investigativeproject.org/documents/case_docs/423.pdf" target="_blank">ID’d</a> 
	 
	CAIR and its founder as “members of the US Muslim Brotherhood,” while&nbsp;<a href="https://www.investigativeproject.org/documents/case_docs/423.pdf" target="_blank">designating</a>&nbsp;them both as “unindicted co-conspirators” in a 2008 terror-financing case involving&nbsp;Hamas, the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood and a US-designated terrorist group. 
	 
	“From its founding by Muslim Brotherhood leaders, CAIR conspired with other affiliates of the Muslim Brotherhood to support terrorists,” US prosecutors charged in one court&nbsp;<a href="http://www.investigativeproject.org/documents/case_docs/542.pdf" target="_blank">filing</a>. 
	 
	As a result, the FBI has&nbsp;<a href="http://www.investigativeproject.org/documents/misc/265.pdf" target="_blank">cut off</a>&nbsp;ties&nbsp;to CAIR until investigators “can resolve whether there continues to be a connection between CAIR or its executives and Hamas.” 
	 
	Air Force Special Operations commander Lt. Gen. Marshal&nbsp;<a href="http://www.af.mil/About-Us/Biographies/Display/Article/108486/lieutenant-general-marshall-b-brad-webb/" target="_blank">Webb</a>&nbsp;received the CAIR letter and, in turn, ordered Special Operations School commandant Lt. Col. Christopher&nbsp;<a href="http://www.afsoc.af.mil/Portals/86/Users/133/89/389/Biography-Portele%203%20June%202016.pdf?ver=2016-06-14-092914-853" target="_blank">Portele</a>&nbsp;to initiate a review. It is not clear if Webb is aware of CAIR’s&nbsp;well-documented support of terrorists. A spokeswoman did not return calls seeking comment. 
	 
	Dunleavy says top brass more than likely are in the dark about the extent of CAIR’s terrorism ties. “I’m sure&nbsp;they don’t have a complete knowledge of CAIR or other Muslim Brotherhood groups,” he said in an interview.


	He notes that the military also has a problem vetting Islamic clergy. 
	 
	Air Force chaplain Walid Habash is expected to begin reviewing slides from Dunleavy’s lesson material later this week, despite the fact that he&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dvidshub.net/news/28475/jtf-guantanamo-gets-rare-visit-imam" target="_blank">received</a>&nbsp;his Islamic education from a radical Muslim Brotherhood school in Virginia. Habash’s&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dvidshub.net/news/28475/jtf-guantanamo-gets-rare-visit-imam" target="_blank">alma mater</a>&nbsp; the Graduate School of Islamic and Social Sciences, or GSISS, was&nbsp;<a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=Dw1mHo6zjKwC&amp;pg=PA336&amp;lpg=PA336&amp;dq=alawani+and+gsiss+and+raid&amp;source=bl&amp;ots=3HIb0-2K5y&amp;sig=VdB3OtE_FWhM6W9cNhFcQ1K49pE&amp;hl=en&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=0ahUKEwjYtYWBoL7TAhXFLSYKHZbxDdIQ6AEIPDAF#v=onepage&amp;q=alawani%20and%20gsiss%20and%20raid&amp;f=false" target="_blank">raided</a>&nbsp;by federal agents in 2002 as part of a post-9/11 terrorism investigation. The longtime director of GSISS — Saudi-tied Taha Jabir Alalwani — is an unindicted&nbsp;<a href="https://www.clearinghouse.net/chDocs/public/PC-NY-0056-0001.pdf" target="_blank">co-conspirator</a>&nbsp;in two federal prosecutions related to terrorist financing.


	Other GSISS alumni include former New York prison chaplain Warith Deen Umar, who&nbsp;<a href="https://oig.justice.gov/special/0404/" target="_blank">preached</a>&nbsp;that the 9-11 hijackers should be honored as martyrs and that black converts to Islam are natural recruits for carrying out future attacks against the US.


	Habash has&nbsp;<a href="http://military.wikia.com/wiki/File:USAF_Imam_gives_a_service_for_Muslim_troopers_in_Guantanamo.jpg" target="_blank">led</a>&nbsp;Islamic prayer service at the Guantanamo Bay terrorist detention camp. In 2005, the FBI busted up what was described as an Islamist "spy ring" for al-Qaida at Gitmo involving other Muslim military chaplains, as well as Arabic translators, accused of “serious breaches of national security." 
	 
	Habash was substituted last week for Muslim military chaplain Rafael Lantigua after Air Force brass learned of his radical associations, apparently for the first time.


	It turns out that Lantigua&nbsp;<a href="http://associationofmuslimchaplains.com/about-us/" target="_blank">sits</a>&nbsp;on the board of directors of an Islamist group with a&nbsp;radical cleric who ran a New York mosque where the terrorists who plotted to bomb synagogues in the Bronx were radicalized. That 2009&nbsp;<a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/19/nyregion/19plot.html" target="_blank">case</a>&nbsp;-- which&nbsp;<a href="http://nypost.com/2009/05/22/mosques-imam-is-a-prison-chaplain/" target="_blank">touches</a>&nbsp;the cleric, Imam Salahuddin Muhammad -- is one of Dunleavy’s presentation slides. Muhammad, a former&nbsp;<a href="http://www.nbcnews.com/id/30875354/ns/us_news-security/t/mosque-distances-itself-ny-terror-plot/#.WP6AvEv-9Fw" target="_blank">convicted</a>&nbsp;armed bank robber, was a protege of Umar.


	In addition, Lantigua recently&nbsp;<a href="https://nimhsp.com/2016/08/24/nimhsp-convention-2017/" target="_blank">spoke</a>&nbsp;at a New York Islamic conference where cop-killer Jamil Al-Amin and Luqman Abdullah, a Detroit imam killed in a shootout with the FBI, were honored. Muhammad gave the keynote address at the February event.


	Once this information came to light, and questions were raised over how impartial Lantigua, who holds the rank of captain, could be regarding the subject of Islamic radicalization in the prisons, Air Force brass began a search for a new Muslim chaplain to review Dunleavy’s lesson plan.


	“The military has an ongoing problem vetting their Muslim clergy,” Dunleavy told me. “Nobody wants to touch this political powder keg.”


	In a press&nbsp;<a href="http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/cair-asks-air-force-to-drop-islamophobic-instructor-linked-to-anti-muslim-propaganda-group-300431336.html" target="_blank">release</a>&nbsp; CAIR communications director Ibrahim Hooper accused Dunleavy of being an "anti-Muslim propaganda mouthpiece” with a "personal prejudice against Islam and Muslims.” The same spokesman once told the Minneapolis Star-Tribune that he wants the US to become a Muslim country.


	“I wouldn’t want to create the impression that I wouldn’t like the government of the United States to be Islamic sometime in the future,” Hooper&nbsp;<a href="http://www.anti-cair-net.org/HooperStarTrib" target="_blank">said</a>, betraying CAIR’s real agenda.


	Nonetheless, CAIR has found success already in convincing law enforcement to alter training programs, including&nbsp;<a href="http://nypost.com/2017/04/15/the-purge-of-a-report-on-radical-islam-has-put-nyc-at-risk/" target="_blank">bleaching</a>&nbsp;references to “Islam,” “Shariah,” “caliphate” and “jihad” and other allegedly offensive terms from state and federal anti-terrorist training materials. It has also pressured the sidelining of some instructors.


	Emboldened, the group is now targeting military training curricula for censorship. Dunleavy is just the latest subject-matter expert targeted for a smear campaign.


	He and other trainers chiefly blame "political correctness" for the capitulation to CAIR at the highest levels of government. Talking honestly about the violent nature of Islam, a minority religion, is taboo in Washington. It’s much safer for career advancement to apologize for it — even though officials know that sweeping the religious doctrines and motives behind growing Islamic terrorism under the rug won’t make them disappear. In fact, it will only lead to more attacks and more American victims.


	“The concerted effort by groups like CAIR to remove any material from law enforcement or military training that outlines the process of Islamic radicalization is fraught with danger,” Dunleavy warned, particularly in light of the case of the Paris terrorist Karim&nbsp;Cheurfi.&nbsp;


	Cheurfi, an ISIS-tied Muslim who last week fatally shot a police officer while wounding two others with an AK-47, had all the indicators outlined by Dunleavy in the material the Pentagon is now second-guessing thanks to CAIR protesting. They include: prison radicalization, exposure to radical Islamic preachers, and attraction to jihadi violence. In spite of these and other warning signs, Cheurfi escaped close monitoring by authorities. Identifying ingredients in this “radicalizing cauldron” is key to authorities stopping such jihadists, says Dunleavy, author of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Fertile-Soil-Jihad-Terrorisms-Connection/dp/1597975486/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1493071260&amp;sr=1-1&amp;keywords=dunleavy+and+fertile+soil" target="_blank">“The Fertile Soil of Jihad: Terrorism's Prison Connection."</a>


	It’s also important for screening military recruits, especially now that the Pentagon has started&nbsp;<a href="http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/sdut-pentagon-chief-may-ease-military-enlistment-2015mar30-story.html" target="_blank">issuing</a>&nbsp;more waivers for applicants with prison records. 
	 
	Dunleavy says the government is basically letting supporters of the bad guys — working on both the outside and inside — blindfold law enforcement and military personnel to the point where they can’t effectively spot the bad guys. 
	 
	Indeed, his case is the latest example of how baseless charges of “Islamophobia” and “anti-Muslim bigotry” are used to hamstring legitimate&nbsp;counterterrorism efforts, which will only pave the way for more islamic terror attacks in the future.

PC Pentagon Caves To CAIR, Agrees to 'Review' Anti-Terror Training Program

The Pentagon has agreed to formally review an anti-terror training program taught to special forces by a private contractor for material deemed offensive to

Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN), the new deputy chairman of the Democratic National Committee, and the first Muslim elected to Congress,&nbsp;has a plan to recruit additional Muslim lawmakers like him -- including possible candidates sponsored by a terror-tied Islamist group for which he helped raise millions of dollars, according to a source who once prayed alongside him in the&nbsp;basement of the Capitol. 
	 
	Ellison has held&nbsp;Friday, or jummah, prayers with other Muslims, including staffers from the Congressional Muslim Staff Association and officials from the Council on American-Islamic&nbsp;Relations (CAIR), in a prayer room, or musallah, in the lower level&nbsp;of the Capitol building.

	A former CAIR intern who prayed with Ellison says Ellison once boasted that his breaking of the Muslim barrier on the Hill would usher in dozens of other Muslim lawmakers like him, and that he&nbsp;had an election-by-election vision for increasing their ranks. 
	 
	“In the summer of 2008, I was working as an intern at CAIR,” Chris Gaubatz recalled in an exclusive interview with&nbsp;<a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&amp;q=http://FrontPageMagazine.com&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1488501911483000&amp;usg=AFQjCNHnQFBOhsII1BFsovVGihEkPVB0LQ" href="http://frontpagemagazine.com/" target="_blank">FrontPageMagazine.com</a>. “During a&nbsp;Friday&nbsp;prayer at the Capitol Building, Ellison&nbsp;was talking about the second Muslim congressman being&nbsp;elected (Andre Carson) and said, “Insha’allah&nbsp;(Allah willing), next election we will have four Muslim congressman, and&nbsp;insha’allah, after that eight, and&nbsp;insha’allah, after that 16.’ ” 
	 
	He said he also envisioned a Congressional Muslim Caucus that would rival the Black Caucus in size and influence, and push for “Muslim-friendly public policies,” such as gutting the&nbsp;Patriot Act, criminalizing the profiling of Muslims in terrorism&nbsp;investigations, and preventing the surveillance of mosques. 
	 
	Ellison’s vision did not play out, as Democrats lost control of Congress to Republicans. 
	 
	But at&nbsp;Saturday’s&nbsp;DNC elections, Tom Perez, who edged out Ellison as chairman of the committee, broke with party rules and named Ellison&nbsp;deputy chairman, creating a new position at the DNC. The DNC leadership controls spending priorities, organization and messaging for Democrats, as well as influences the recruitment and training of candidates.


	“We have to recruit the right kind of candidates,” Ellison asserted in a recent DNC candidate forum.

<div>
	His new key role in bringing more Muslims into Congress concerns security experts, because Ellison has made&nbsp;anti-Semitic remarks in talks with Muslim groups&nbsp;and aligned himself with known radical Islamists, and would likely recruit more Islamists with help from terrorist front groups like CAIR.</div>

<div>

		“He trusts CAIR's leaders,” he said, "and I have no doubt they will have an influence in the selection and grooming of political candidates for office."</div>

New DNC Deputy Keith Ellison's Islamic Agenda for Congress

[Editor’s note: See Frank Gaffney’s previous pieces on Frontpagemag.com exposing <a href="http://archive.frontpagemag.com/readArticle.aspx?ARTID=15084">Grover Norquist's</a> and <a href="http://archive.frontpagemag.com/readArticle.aspx?ARTID=63">Suhail Khan's</a> troubling connections.]
Suhail Khan, a Bush administration veteran, has presented himself as a moderate, pro-American voice in the Muslim Community. But new videos cast serious doubt on that image he's carefully groomed for himself in Washington.
Shockingly, <a href="http://www.vimeo.com/user5584908/videos">they show</a> this current American Conservative Union board member consorting with radical Muslim Brotherhood leaders-turned-terrorists, while exalting the death culture of jihadists.
Relevance: This self-proclaimed staunch Republican has made inroads into the GOP leadership on the Hill, where he's lobbied to:
* Block opposition to the Ground Zero mosque;
* Pooh-pooh the threats from Muslim Brotherhood infiltration and the Shariah legal code it seeks to institutionalize in America;
* Downplay the rising tide of homegrown terror and radicalization, which Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., plans to investigate next month during his important Homeland Security Commitee hearings on the subject.
More alarming, Mr. Khan has -- unwittingly or not -- helped the bad guys infiltrate the government, from one end of Pennsylvania Avenue to the other.
Before 9/11, as White House gatekeeper to the Muslim community, he helped facilitate a White House meeting with Sami al-Arian, even though al-Arian had been under FBI investigation (al-Arian subsequently served time for terrorism and remains under house arrest for refusing to testify in a related terror case). As a Hill staffer in the mid-1990s, moreover, Mr. Khan convinced then-House Speaker Newt Gingrich to reserve a room in the Capitol for Muslims to pray. Consequently, according to Fox News, a parade of extremists -- including cleric Anwar Awlaki, who the U.S. government now hopes to assassinate for his terrorist work for al-Qaida -- led prayers and spoke there.
Mr. Khan is now a spokesman for the Congressional Muslim Staff Association, working with a Muslim convert named Jihad Saleh Williams (of all the Arabic names he could have picked, he chose Jihad). Mr. Khan spends a lot of time on the Hill. He's briefed GOP leadership staff on various issues and has now cozied up to some of House Speaker John Boehner's people. He's even gained the trust of key staffers running the Republican Study Committee, the caucus for conservatives in the House.
None of them knew of his radical ties. Some told me they weren't even aware he's Muslim.
Now that the jig is up, Mr. Khan has gone into damage control mode. Last week, in a six-page letter to fellow ACU board members, including chairman David Keene, he tried to explain away the damning videos -- which, among other things, show him receiving an award from the notorious Abdurahman Alamoudi, now behind bars as one of al-Qaida's top fundraisers in America. He claims he had no choice but to speak to Alamoudi's group, that the Bush White House sent him, blah, blah.
But nobody at the White House forced him to speak in 1999 to the radical Islamic Society of North America, where he sounded at one point much like a jihadist, praising the "mujihadeen" who martyr themselves "for the cause of Islam," and braying about how "the early Muslims loved death more than the oppressors loved life." He invoked all the major hotspots of the jihadi circuit at the time: "Bosnia" ... "Kashmir" ... "Palestine" ... "Iraq." All the while, <a href="http://www.vimeo.com/user5584908/videos">the video</a> captures Mr. Khan wiping tears of anger from his cheeks. Here is a transcript from that section of his speech to ISNA:
"We are charged by almighty Allah to protect our fellow brothers and sisters and we know of many, so many, here in America and across the globe who are in dire need of protection ... A Muslim is a brother to a Muslim. Neither he harms him nor does he hand him to another for harm. ... Here in the United States, Muslims are often faced with discrimination, harassment and outright hatred. Mosques are burned. Islamic centers are vandalized, desecrated. Mosques and Islamic centers and schools face constant discriminatory zoning decisions. Muslim families are harassed and hindered from travel from at airports as they are profiled as quote unquote terrorists or security risks. ... Our freedoms, my dear brothers and sisters, are under attack. Our freedom to associate with whomsoever we choose, to speak out politically and religiously, to travel, to practice our faith as Allah has instructed us as God-fearing men and women must be protected. And these rights must be defended with all the determination, all the resources, all the unyielding vigilance of the believing mujahid. ... This is the mark of the Muslim. The earliest defenders of Islam would defend their more numerous and better equipped oppressors, because the early Muslims loved death, dying for the sake of almighty Allah, more than the oppressors of Muslims loved life. This must be the case where we-- when we are fighting life's other battles. ... [W]hat are our oppressors going to do with people like us? We're prepared to give our lives for the cause of Islam."

This is the kind of violent rhetoric you'd expect to hear from Osama bin Laden or Awlaki, not any "moderate" Muslim.
In that same 1999 speech, Mr. Khan also expressed disturbing hostility toward federal law enforcement and sympathy for terrorist suspects. At the time he was working for a congressman from a heavily Muslim district in Northern California to eliminate the Justice Department's use of so-called "secret evidence" to deport Arab immigrants suspected of terrorism. Why would a supposedly rock-ribbed conservative undermine law enforcement's efforts to fight terrorism?
What's striking is that even now, with Alamoudi behind bars, Mr. Khan cannot bring himself to call his old patron the al-Qaida terrorist that he is. In his letter of defense to the ACU board, he refers to him as "Mr. Alamoudi" and "gentleman," but never as terrorist. And "gentleman" is the term he used to describe Osama bin Laden's deputy on the Fred Grandy radio show recently. Why would he show such deference to a monster responsible for slaughtering nearly 3,000 fellow Americans?
And, again, why would a Republican glorify the death culture of jihadists? Why would a "loyal American," as he calls himself, accept an award from a known Islamic extremist such as Alamoudi who had talked about "destroying America"?
These are questions members of the Republican establishment who have promoted Mr. Khan to positions of power ought to start asking.
There are other concerns, as well.
Mr. Khan is the first-born son of Mahboob Khan, one of the founding fathers of the Muslim Brotherhood movement in America, which according to its secret founding archives (seized by the FBI in 2004) is in America to "sabotage" it and "destroy" it "from within."
There is no evidence tying Mahboob Khan directly to the drafting of the archives. However, the same trove of Brotherhood papers lists a mosque he founded -- Santa Clara, Calif.- based MCA -- as one of "our organizations."
The "San Francisco Chronicle" has reported that at least twice in the 1990s, his father's mosque hosted Ayman al-Zawahiri, now AQ's No. 2, and helped raise money for him -- all while Mr. Khan's father was running the mosque as chairman of the board (as confirmed by the "San Jose Mercury News"). After the "Chronicle" and other major newspapers reported the Zawahiri fundraisers in 2001, Mr. Khan relocated from the White House to the Transportation Department.
Mr. Khan claims the reporting is false, but it's based on the court testimony of past members of the mosque, and the "Chronicle" has never issued a retraction. Mr. Khan insists his late father was just a "Silicon Valley executive," "a high-tech engineer in the Bay Area." But his immigrant father's work in America involved far more than that, as <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v80tE7bUky4">this video</a> makes clear.
Also in the early 1990s, a leader in his father's mosque hosted the Blind Sheik (of World Trade Center bombing fame) at his Santa Clara apartment, as I first reported in "Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld That's Conspiring to Islamize America," which exposes the radical Muslim Brotherhood and its American front groups. For some strange reason, two of the most dangerous terrorists on the planet made mecca to, of all places, Santa Clara, Calif., back then. That same mosque leader, Omar Ahmad, whom the "Chronicle" has also described as a "spokesman" for the mosque, also happens to be founding chairman of the Council on American-Islamic Relations. He's now an unindicted co-conspirator in the largest terror-financing case in U.S. history -- U.S. v. Holy Land Foundation. Ahmad has told Muslims in the Bay Area that the Quran should replace the Constitution as the "highest authority in America." He's also praised suicide bombers who "kill themselves for Islam."
Mr. Khan's mother works for CAIR, and <a href="http://ca.cair.com/sfba/about/">is listed</a> alongside Ahmad as a member of the executive committee of CAIR's San Francisco Bay Area chapter. Malika Khan's chapter last week put up a poster on its website advising Muslims: "Don't talk to the FBI," and "build a wall of resistance" against law enforcement.
But that's not all. According to the "Contra Costa Times" and other local press, Mr. Khan's family mosque has hosted several Taliban supporters, while raising money -- unwittingly or not -- for Hamas through its U.S. charitable front, the Holy Land Foundation. The mosque happens to be held in trust by another unindicted Holy Land co-conspirator -- the North American Islamic Trust. The government recently blacklisted Saudi-funded NAIT as part of the Hamas fundraising conspiracy. It also happens to be the banker to the Muslim Brotherhood network in America.
But it's not just the mosque that's a concern. Mr. Khan's father also founded the Santa Clara-based American Muslims for Global Peace and Justice, whose chairman defended the Taliban even after 9/11, according to the Associated Press. So what "peace" and what "justice" are we talking about here?
Despite these troubling family ties, Mr. Khan has vowed to carry on his "dear father's shining legacy," as he calls it. Before his conviction on terror charges, top Muslim Brotherhood leader Alamoudi said he hoped to see this "son of a dear, dear Brother" in the White House one day as "vice president ... Allah Akbar!"
That should give everyone in Washington pause.

Who is Suhail Khan?

[Editor’s note: See Frank Gaffney’s previous pieces on Frontpagemag.com exposing Grover Norquist's and Suhail Khan's troubling connections.]

Suhail Khan, a

<img title="nihad" src="/sites/default/files/uploads/2009/12/nihad1.gif" alt="nihad" width="450" height="338" />
With the FBI cutting off ties to the Council on American-Islamic Relations and now subpoenaing some 12,000 internal CAIR documents under temporary restraining order as part of the bureau's ongoing criminal investigation of CAIR, the terrorist front group is suddenly cooperating with the FBI -- or at least making a show of it.
Suddenly CAIR, an unindicted terrorist co-conspirator, is acting like a good citizen. Suddenly it's concerned about young Muslim-American men going on jihad. Suddenly it's concerned about "certain" passages of the Quran inspiring jihadists.
It's all too little, too late.
Thanks to CAIR, 42 brave American soldiers were gunned down by an Islamic nut in Texas. That's right, thanks to CAIR.
How so? For starters, it was the intimidating and ruthless CAIR that almost single-handedly created a climate of fear of reporting any suspicious anti-American behavior on the part of Muslim soldiers like Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, accused of the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil since 9/11.
The CAIR-induced mass silence led to mass murder.
Fear in the military of being seen as anti-Muslim also blocked intellectually honest discussion of violent Islamic ideology in the ranks.
Thanks to CAIR, the military along with everyone else in government is terrified of associating terrorism with Islam. No one dares utter the M word, lest they be sued for discrimination or branded an "anti-Muslim bigot" or "Islamophobe" by CAIR's smear merchants.
"There were definitely clear indications that Hasan's loyalties were not with America," said Lt. Col. Val Finnell, one of the Army doctors who served with Hasan. But nobody said anything because "there's a political correctness climate in the military," and everybody's "afraid of an equal opportunity lawsuit."
CAIR's lawyers have filed thousands of EEOC complaints and lawsuits since 9/11. They've even gone after John Doe citizens who alerted airline crew to Muslim men behaving as menacingly and suspiciously as the 9/11 hijackers. CAIR's "Flying While Muslim" anti-profiling campaign has had a chilling effect throughout the aviation security industry.
CAIR gulled non-Muslims into the kind of see-no-evil dhimmitude that allowed Hasan to carry out his alleged terror. Had anyone dared officially protest Hasan's extremist views, they would have not only risked their military careers but potentially faced a lawsuit sponsored by CAIR.
Hasan was treated with kid gloves because CAIR demanded it.
Thanks to CAIR, a dozen soldiers lay dead, along with 29 wounded, some so severely they'll never be deployed in the war on terror again, which is just fine by CAIR.
Since 9/11, the Saudi-funded front group has consistently and vehemently protested the war, even in Afghanistan, while defending the Taliban and other terrorists.
CAIR is the No. 1 generator of the false narrative that America is at war against Islam, which is the single-most compelling force motivating homegrown terrorists such as, allegedly, Hasan, who said as much in his PowerPoint diatribe and comments to colleagues. In fact, the chosen topic of his presentation was, "Is the War on Terror a war on Islam?"
Around the same time, CAIR's then-chairman answered his question: "The United States is at war with Islam itself."
Thus CAIR is the primary Muslim NGO fueling anti-American hostilities and extremism in the Muslim community.
CAIR at the same time has mocked concerns over growing Islamic extremism in America, effectively lowering our collective guard against attack.
"This is an isolated incident," CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad said of the Fort Hood terrorist attack, even though it came on the heels of some 70 arrests of Muslims involved in homegrown terrorism over the previous 12 months.
"I don't foresee a rise in religious extremism in the Muslim community," CAIR spokesman Ibrahim Hooper sniffed in 2007.
That same year, CAIR mounted a PR offensive against a prescient report from the intelligence branch of the NYPD. Entitled "Radicalization in the West: The Homegrown Threat," the report warned that seemingly law-abiding young Muslim men in America can be turned into terrorists through jihadi indoctrination.
CAIR quickly condemned the report as racist. And a confidential CAIR memo reveals its New York operatives feverishly lobbied NYPD officials to amend the report by softening its conclusion that young Muslim men pose a high security risk.
Following the Muslim Brotherhood playbook to Islamize in America, CAIR effectively has shut down all critical debate. CAIR and the Brotherhood are the enemy. And they are winning the propaganda war.
As part of their disinformation campaign, CAIR whitewashes the threat from jihad during Islamic-sensitivity training for the military, while pressuring brass to erect mosques to serve Muslim soldiers (and convert others), including the new one at Quantico. Its sister organization ISNA, meanwhile, goads the military into recruiting more Muslims, while certifying radical chaplains and lay leaders to counsel them.
No wonder commanders are blind to the jihadist threat in their midst. CAIR and the Muslim Mafia have thrown sand in their eyes. They run and control the Muslim racket in the military.
Hundreds of thousands of Muslims -- including even some U.S. military officers -- engage in or support jihad. It makes little sense that they all could misunderstand their religious obligations. Yet that's the load of 
manure CAIR is cramming down the throats of U.S. authorities, as it privately engages in and supports jihad itself.
CAIR and the 9/11 Mosque
In addition, CAIR has long supported the radical 9/11 mosque where Hasan worshipped, and still protects it from the investigative scrutiny (and bulldozers) it deserves. Dar al-Hijrah Islamic Center in Falls Church, Va., is a known breeding ground for terrorists, including:
* Fugitive Hamas leader Mousa Abu Marzook, a former mosque leader to whom CAIR funneled at least $40,000.
* Top al-Qaida fundraiser Abdurahman Alamoudi, a one-time CAIR director now serving 23 years in federal prison for terrorism.
* Ahmed Omar Abu Ali, the would-be al-Qaida presidential assassin who trained with a cell led by a former CAIR official.
* Mohammed al-Hanooti, a current mosque leader and unindicted co-conspirator in both the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and recent Holy Land Foundation terror finance case.
* Ismail Elbarasse, a founding mosque member and leader who was arrested for allegedly casing the Chesapeake Bay bridge for attack.
* Abdelhaleem Ashqar, mosque leader and suspected Hamas operative recently convicted for obstruction of justice.
* Abdullah bin Laden, nephew of the al-Qaida kingpin whose name appears on the federal terrorist watchlist.
*  Hani Hanjour, 9/11 hijacker and Saudi national who flew the jumbo jet into the Pentagon.
* Nawaf al-Hazmi, 9/11 hijacker and Saudi national who joined Hanjour  on the Pentagon flight and acted as second in command of the entire al-Qaida operation behind hijacking ringleader Mohamed Atta.
After 9/11, investigators found the phone number for Dar al-Hijrah in the Hamburg, Germany, apartment of one of the planners of the 9/11 attacks -- Ramzi Binalshibh, a Gitmo detainee who will soon stand trial in Manhattan, if the Obama administration has its way.
Constructed with $5 million from the Saudi Embassy and run by Muslim Brotherhood leaders, Dar al-Hijrah is a terror mill and a direct threat to national security. Yet the only thing standing in the way of the mosque and justice is CAIR, which also happens to be a threat to national security.
CAIR maintains a booth at the mosque, and coordinates fundraising with it. Last year the group listed Dar al-Hijrah among its main supporters -- along with the Saudi Embassy. The mosque's leaders are listed as VIP contacts in CAIR's executive Rolodex.
And once a month, Dar al-Hijrah's lead imam -- Shaker Elsayed -- meets with top CAIR officials on the first floor of their D.C. headquarters. Elsayed has said that Muslims have the right to use violence. "We do have license to respond with all force necessary to our attackers."
He also says he believes in the teachings of Muslim Brotherhood founder Hassan al-Banna, which he describes as "the closest reflection of how Islam should be in this life."
Here's a sample of what the late al-Banna taught: "Islam wishes to do way with all states and governments anywhere which are opposed to this ideology and program of Islam. Islam requires the earth -- not just a portion, but the entire planet."
Also joining the monthly CAIR breakfast: Democratic Rep. Keith Ellison, the nation's first Muslim member of Congress.
Another imam at the mosque, Johari Abdul Malik, has preached to American Muslims that they are within Islamic law to "blow up bridges" and other infrastructure. "You can do all forms of sabotage," he said in a 2001 Hamas conference.
He's also called for Islamic supremacy in America.
"We will see the day when Islam, by the grace of Allah, will become the dominant way of life," Malik told his flock in 2004. "You will see Islam move from being the second largest religion in America to being the first 
religion in America."
Malik is a close friend of the former Dar al-Hijrah imam, Anwar al-Awlaki, who privately ministered to the 9/11 hijackers. After the attacks, Awlaki fled to London, where he gave a sermon extolling the virtues of martyrdom.
In an interview with me, Malik defended his friend's sermon, arguing Muslims who die while fighting unbelievers in the cause of Allah are no different from U.S. Marines fighting and dying for America in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"That's the same thing as telling Marines in this country semper fidelis," Malik said. "Telling people to give their all for their faith is not an unusual idea."
His mosque handled the funeral services of Maj. Hasan's mother when she passed away in 2001. It was then that Hasan fell under the spell of Dar al-Hijrah cleric Awlaki, aka Aulaqi.
CAIR and the 9/11 Imam
One of al-Qaida's top Western recruiters, Awlaki is considered a rock star among jihadists, and has cultivated fans among CAIR officials. Hooper's protege Ismail Royer and his terrorist cell chauffeured Awlaki around 
Washington as he looked for new terrorist recruits. Prosecutors also found his phone number stored on their cell phones.
Currently heading his booster club within the organization, with Royer now behind bars, is the civil-rights coordinator for CAIR's Los Angeles chapter, Affad Shaikh, who has listened to Awlaki's lectures and posted links to his Web site on his blog Muslamics.
Shaikh, who in 2008 was questioned by Homeland Security agents near San Diego, appears to have a death wish.
"In death there is something to celebrate," he recently wrote on his blog in a post titled "Celebrating Death." The essay mirrors one Awlaki previously posted on another Web site titled "Why Muslims Love Death."
"Our culture of martyrdom needs to be revived," the imam preaches, "because the enemy of Allah fears nothing more than our love of death."
Global Islamic domination is the goal.
"We will implement the rule of Allah on earth by the tip of the sword whether the masses like it or not," Awlaki has written.
In the final slide of Hasan's 50-slide PowerPoint screed on Islam, he borrowed a page from Awlaki's hatebook, warning fellow Army doctors: "We love death more than you love life."
He also wrote: "If Muslim groups can convince Muslims that they are fighting for God against injustices of the 'infidels': ie: enemies of Islam, then Muslims can become a potent adversary ie: suicide bombing, etc."
He no doubt had Muslim groups like CAIR in mind, which have certainly accomplished that goal through radical propaganda and the financing of suicide bombings through charitable fronts groups.
Al-Qaida's Awlaki, whom Hooper describes simply as "a former Virginia imam," has spoken at Islamic conferences with longtime CAIR director and fundraiser Siraj Wahhaj.
Establishing an Islamic State
Army doctors recall Hasan declaring Islamic law trumped the U.S. Constitution as the supreme law of the land. "I'm a Muslim first and I hold the Shariah, the Islamic law, before the United States Constitution," he 
said.
Hasan also encouraged Muslims to fight to "establish an Islamic state" in America.
Where have we heard this before? From none other than CAIR's founding chairman, Omar Ahmad, who once told a Muslim audience: "Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Quran should be the highest authority in America."
And we've also heard it from CAIR communications director Hooper, who last decade let it slip out that: "I wouldn't want to create the impression that I wouldn't like the government of the United States to be Islamic sometime in the future."
CAIR and Hasan share the same radical agenda.
CAIR may bill itself as a "civil-rights advocacy group," but the FBI says 
that far from being a benign nonprofit, it's a front group for Hamas 
terrorists and the radical Muslim Brotherhood in America. And the bureau 
last year cut off formal ties to CAIR's national office in Washington and 
all 30 of its branch offices across the country.
CAIR at the time blamed the severance policy on the "right-wing" Bush administration, and confidently predicted that a Democrat administration would restore relations. No such luck. Nearly a year into the Obama administration, CAIR remains frozen out. Even the Muslim-friendly President Obama has not helped CAIR, much to its chagrin.
At the same time, the Justice Department has blacklisted CAIR as an unindicted terrorist co-conspirator in the largest terror finance case in U.S. history, the Holy Land Foundation trial. It ended in convictions on all 
108 counts.
Prosecutors have also connected CAIR to the Muslim Brotherhood, a worldwide 
jihadist movement that seeks to institutionalize Shariah law (think: 
Taliban) in America and the West through immigration, coercion and political 
infiltration.
"From its founding by Muslim Brotherhood leaders, CAIR conspired with other affiliates of the Muslim Brotherhood to support terrorists," assistant U.S. Attorney Gordon Kromberg stated in a court filing.
The Brotherhood is the parent of Hamas and al-Qaida. They share the same goals but use different methods to achieve them. "The only difference between the guys in the suits and the guys with the AK-47s is timing and tactics," explains an FBI official in Washington.
The FBI last year severed ties to CAIR, citing court evidence that its leaders were participating in an "ongoing" conspiracy to support terrorists. Democrat Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York has requested that the FBI's anti-CAIR ban "should be government-wide policy."
CAIR's Proven Ties to Terrorists
No fewer than 15 CAIR officials have been convicted or implicated in terrorism investigations since 9/11 -- including its founding chairman, Ahmad, and acting executive director, Nihad Awad. The two Palestinian 
refugees participated in a secret Hamas meeting (wiretapped by the FBI) whereby a plot was hatched to disguise payments to suicide bombers as charity. Millions subsequently were funneled to Hamas through the Holy Land charity.
And the CAIR co-founders remain under government suspicion, as a result of evidence emerging from the Holy Land terror trial.
"During that trial, evidence was introduced that demonstrated a relationship among CAIR, individual CAIR founders (including its current President Emeritus and its Executive Director) and ... HAMAS," wrote assistant FBI Director Richard Powers in an April 2009 letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Tipping Off Terror Targets
Meantime, CAIR and its surrogates are spying on the FBI. The group has cultivated spies inside a Washington-area law enforcement agency, which resulted in at least one Muslim cop representing CAIR on the force searching a classified federal database and then tipping off a fellow Muslim who had been under FBI surveillance as a terrorist suspect.
CAIR also is aggressively lobbying to deny law enforcement tools needed to crack down on terrorists and protect the nation from another 9/11.
CAIR is a tax-exempt nonprofit bound by IRS rules restricting lobbying activities; yet in one year alone, internal records show CAIR officials made 72 separate trips to Congress to lobby to kill the USA Patriot Act.
Concerned members of Congress led by intrepid Rep. Sue Myrick have asked the IRS to audit CAIR and its shady financing. Americans should know the following about this unregistered foreign lobbyist:
* CAIR's major funding comes from Persian Gulf sources, including Saudi Arabia, and not from grass-roots domestic supporters as it publicly claims (in fact, membership dues now account for a puny 1% of CAIR's total revenue).
* CAIR leaders, including spokesman Hooper, travel frequently to the Middle East to personally raise cash.
* Bank wire records published exclusively in "Muslim Mafia" show a Saudi royal family member recently transferred more than $110,000 directly into CAIR's bank account at Citibank, for example.
* After 9/11, the ruler of Dubai took a nearly $1 million stake in CAIR's headquarters, just three blocks from the U.S. Capitol, and has pledged millions more.
* "Do not think about your contributions [to CAIR] as donations," CAIR's former chairman told CAIR's UAE patrons. "Think about it from the perspective of rate of return. The investment of $50 million will give you 
billions of dollars in return for 50 years."
CAIR is selling its services to the UAE and Saudi governments by doing their ideological and commercial bidding.
Yet CAIR is not registered as a foreign agent, as required by the Justice Department. And it has never disclosed its foreign funding or relationships with countries tied to 9/11 and potentially still hostile to U.S. interests.
CAIR says it's the Muslim ACLU. But it's the Muslim ACORN -- only more dangerous because it's backed by Arab governments, supports terrorism, and ultimately seeks to convert the U.S. into an Islamic police state modeled after Saudi Arabia.
Make no mistake. Do not be fooled by the moderate mask. Or the belated patriotic rhetoric. CAIR wants the same demise for America as al-Qaida does.
CAIR helps terrorists, and hates the FBI.
That's because CAIR is one of the bad guys.
CAIR is America's enemy.
CAIR is your enemy.

CAIR: Fort Hood Co-Conspirator - by Paul Sperry

With the FBI cutting off ties to the Council on American-Islamic Relations and now subpoenaing some 12,000 internal CAIR documents under temporary restraining

You've heard the narrative from the Beltway punditry: Our Muslims are better assimilated than Muslims in Europe. Our Muslims are more Westernized, less radicalized.
Well, it's a false narrative.
We are seeing the horns of a Muslim insurgency in this country. We are being Europeanized. And we need a counterinsurgency plan not just in Afghanistan but right here at home.
While our leaders are too politically correct to even think about such a thing, they are starting to at least recognize the problem.
Even President Obama, who still won't utter the M word, notes the rise in "extremists within our borders." So does his Homeland Security chief, who just months earlier fixated on white militia groups as the main domestic terror threat.
"We are seeing young Americans who are inspired by al-Qaida and radical ideology," echoed DHS secretary Janet Napolitano, while still failing to name the source of that ideology. "Home-based terrorism is here."
And for the first time, a senior Justice Department official has gone on record saying the U.S. is turning into Europe, with Muslim citizens becoming more and more hostile toward the government, and plotting and carrying out more acts of homegrown terrorism.
"If there was ever a subconscious belief in the counterterrorism community that our society is different from Europe and therefore we don't have to worry about problems like they've had, the activities in Minneapolis demonstrate we can't think that way," said Patrick Rowan, who led Justice's national-security division when the government first started investigating the case of the 20 young Somali-American men who quit college and gave up promising careers in Minneapolis to join al-Qaida's jihad in Somalia.
The FBI fears the recruits -- who have U.S. passports -- may use their terror training to come back and attack their own country. One of them already carried out a suicide bombing, becoming the first American to do so.
"We should all be on guard," said Ralph Boelter who heads the FBI's Minneapolis field office.
As we dig in deeper in Afghanistan, hostility among our own Muslim population will only grow deeper. And as we import more refugees from Muslim countries, demands for Shariah (think: Taliban) law will only grow shriller. Consider that:
* A new Gallup poll finds American Muslims are most likely to report feeling anger compared with the overall population -- making even more of them ripe for radicalization.
* 2009 is shaping up to be most dangerous year in domestic terror since 9/11, a grave national security issue overlooked by a national media obsessed with boys trapped (or not) in balloons and golfers trapped in bimbo bunkers.
* In the past 12 months alone, there have been more than 75 arrests in the U.S. and abroad of homegrown terrorists including the Fort Hood shooter -- all of them Muslim, almost all U.S. citizens.
* The FBI says Muslim groups have declared war on law enforcement over mosque surveillance and undercover informants -- and we just saw the first mosques seized and the first shootout between a Muslim cleric and agents in Detroit.
* USA Today reports six Muslim "honor killings" in America over the past two years.
"Radicalization is clearly happening in the U.S.," said NYPD intelligence unit chief Mitch Silber. "In years past, you couldn't say that about the U.S. You could say it about Europe."
The secularity of the American Muslim community is a myth. In fact, a larger share of American Muslims (80%) say their religion is an important part of their daily lives than British Muslims (70%), according to a recent Gallup poll. And our Muslims are nearly as militant in their faith as Iranians.
The same survey finds a disturbing percentage of American Muslim youth -- 26% -- are seething with anger compared with the national average among respondents aged 18 to 29.
These findings dovetail with a 2007 Pew Research poll finding an alarming 26%  -- or roughly 100,000 -- of U.S. Muslims aged 18 to 29 condone suicide bombings against non-Muslim "civilian targets." That roughly tracks the 35% of young Muslim Brits who told Pew the same thing after some of them bombed the London subway.
Clearly, young Muslim Americans are as prone to radicalization as their European counterparts.
Take Tarek Mehanna, a 27-year-old American from Boston recently arrested on terror charges. Court records show his jihad cell, which allegedly planned to attack a shopping mall, justified suicide attacks against fellow American civilians "because they paid taxes to support the [U.S.] government, and because they were Kufar (non-believers)."
The group traveled to Pakistan to train with Lashkar-e-Taiba, the al-Qaida subcontractor blamed for last year's bloodbath in Mumbai, India.
LeT also attracted a top official at the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a terrorist front group posing as a civil-rights group. Ismail Royer -- who worked under CAIR spokesman Ibrahim Hooper at its national headquarters in Washington -- is now serving 20 years in the pen. Prosecutors say he trained at LeT camps in Pakistan to kill U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan, and recruited other Muslims in the D.C. suburbs to join the 
anti-American jihad.
Confidential CAIR board meeting minutes first revealed in my new book, "Muslim Mafia," show Hooper has been tasked as point man to get Royer out of prison, and has worked closely with the convict's family and lawyers.
Hooper hired an accused terrorist, andthen after he confessed to related charges and was convicted, Hooper treated him as a hero. Even now, as prosecutors call Royer an "inveterate liar" who refuses to cooperate in other terror cases as promised -- CAIR's communications director is doing everything he can to put this dangerous criminal back on the streets.
Royer is no different from the accused jihadist in Boston. Both want to kill Americans.
Only difference: Hooper's protege worked as a spokesman and civil-rights coordinator at CAIR headquarters.
We don't need CAIR's brand of civil rights, something the FBI, which recently cut off ties to it, finally understands.
Royer was ringleader of the so-called Virginia Jihad Network, which the feds thought they'd broken up. But now there's a new group of Virginia jihadists: five young Muslim men arrested in Pakistan for trying to do the same thing -- train to kill U.S. troops. All five are U.S. citizens, and include a dental student described as "cool, and all-American."
How do Muslims raised in America become so radicalized?
They're steeped in the anti-American hate of mosques and national front groups (like CAIR, ISNA and the Muslim Students Association) controlled by the radical Muslim Brotherhood and funded by the Saudis. Through sermons and Saudi literature and the media, they teach them that America is the enemy.
This is the jihad factory, fueled by jihadi websites, churning out homegrown terrorists. And the FBI is only now trying to dismantle it.
Arrests of homegrown Muslim terrorists are averaging more than six a month. They are threatening both hard targets, such as military bases, and soft targets, such as hotels and shopping malls. That's an alarming up-tempo in terrorist activity, belying official spin the problem is confined to a small minority of the Muslim community. The home-based jihad threat is much larger than the administration suggests.
"There are people living among us, in our communities around the U.S., that are honing their skills to carry out acts of murder and mayhem," warned senior FBI official Owen Harris.
He like other government officials can't publicly say what kind of "people" would be doing such treacherous things.
But make no mistake, he's referring to Islamic fanatics. While they may be spread out over different cities -- Raleigh, N.C., Boston, New York, Minneapolis, Denver, Washington, Chicago, even sleepy Killeen, Texas -- and while they may have different ethnicities -- Arab, South Asian, Eastern European, Hispanic, white -- they all share a common bond in jihad. While we may call them Americans, they do not. They hate their country and want to destroy it.
Most don't look like wild-eyed traitors. Some even appear patriotic.
Witness American citizen Daood Gilani. A Chicago businessman, he changed his name in 2005 to David Headley.
But he was trying to fit in for all the wrong reasons. He wanted to escape notice as a Muslim and allow for easy transit through immigration on terror missions to Pakistan, where he attended training camps run by LeT.
Federal prosecutors this month charged Headley with, among other things, conspiracy to murder Americans.
Then there's Hazam Ali Ahmed, who for years has run a neighborhood convenience store in Knoxville, Tenn.
Authorities last week found two guns inside his store, and say he planned to carry out a terrorist attack at a shopping mall.
"He referred to jihad," the FBI said in court documents charging the 35-year-old Muslim. "And stated that he was connected to al-Qaida."
Meanwhile, more and more Muslims in America are trying to assert Islamic rights under Shariah law, a medieval monument to human-rights abuses practiced by the Taliban and Saudis.
Right now in this country, we are seeing a spike in "honor killings" -- murders of women by relatives who claim the victim brought shame to the family -- something normally seen in Muslim countries. America is now averaging one every four months. And we will see more.
The latest victim is a 20-year-old Arizona girl who died last month after her father, an Iraqi immigrant, ran her and her boyfriend's mother over in a parking lot. He admits the attack was intentional, explaining his daughter brought shame to the family by living with a man.
Lest anyone think such murders are confined to Muslim immigrants, a New York TV executive earlier this year sawed off his wife's head in a suspected honor killing.
And there appears to be broad support and acceptance of this barbaric ritual in mainstream Islamic circles in America.
One of the most popular fatwah banks in the U.S. -- maintained by the Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America -- does not condemn honor killings. It only discourages men from doing it themselves.
"Imams implement the Shariah punishments," decrees AMJA. And execution is not the "unvarying" punishment for fornicating daughters or sisters, it adds. They can also be punished by "lashing." (The sentence for adulterous women, however, is always "stoning.")
"Would it be permissible for a brother to kill his sister if he saw her committing zina (pre-marital sex)?" a Muslim living in America asked AMJA's scholars in 2007.
In any other culture, the answer would be an emphatic, resounding: "No, not ever. It's immoral and against the law, and you'd be prosecuted for first-degree murder." But in the subculture of radical Islam co-existing in the shadows of the most advanced country in the world, the answer from AMJA was: "It depends."
Another false narrative says our Muslims demonstrate a "fierce loyalty to America," as Obama just claimed in Oslo without offering any concrete examples. Apparently he's giving them credit just for choosing to live here.
He needs to get out more. He can start by driving across the Potomac to Alexandria and Falls Church, Va. FBI agents and detectives who have worked counterterror cases and entered Muslim homes in those Washington suburbs, know better.
Inside, they've seen home computers with Osama bin Laden screen savers. They've seen refrigerators with children's drawings depicting Jews and Christians as pigs and apes and hateful anti-Jewish and anti-Christian 
poems.
They've seen the throngs of Muslims rallying around terrorist defendants at the federal courthouse in Alexandria, even after they've confessed to crimes. They've heard respect Muslim leaders bash U.S. prosecutors as "Zionists."
They also know that the Skyline Towers, a luxury apartment complex housing thousands of Muslims in Falls Church, erupted into cheers after the Twin Towers collapsed on 9/11. We're not talking about Gaza or the West Bank. This was just minutes from the Pentagon.
Authorities have made so many trips to the high-rise complex to investigate tenants that they've dubbed it "Taliban Towers."
Just up the street is the still-bustling 9/11 mosque, Dar al-Hijrah, where the hijackers, the Fort Hood shooter and a shockingly long rap sheet of other terrorists have worshipped.
The vast majority of Americans have no idea, but the very capital of our nation is a breeding ground for terrorists. In fact, the Washington area is Ground Zero of the anti-American insurgency being carried out by radicalized American Muslims in plain view of our government.
Yet it's doing next to nothing about it, still deluded by the notion it can win "hearts and minds" by cow-towing to ISNA and other radical Brotherhood fronts, who simply use outreach events as an opportunity to gather intelligence and tip off targets of terror probes.
As the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq drag on, we are going to see a much broader participation in jihad by Muslims. Not just Muslims living overseas, but those living here, inside America.
Will we talk honestly about this problem? Or will we turn a blind eye -- and continue to be blindsided, like those 42 brave Americans in Texas?
Are we going to defuse this religious powder keg? Or are we going to continue to commit politically correct suicide?
