Excerpt from a good article by Col Zumwalt* in Human Events, one of those proud-of-the-American-and-Western traditions-fascist-neo con-pre Cro Magnon-publications that Ivy League smart people and Oprah Winfrey lovers simply can't fathom nor stomach. One, and only one aspect of Islam's Jihad in the West is the Muslim Brotherhood. The MB is a neat summary of Islamic aspirations in all spheres of life including the economic, spiritual, political and social. The MB's plan as laid out by Qutb in the 50s and 60s was and is nothing less than the complete destruction of the West. Whether the Jihad is via 'hot war' or through 'cold stealth' matters not, as long as the political and social objectives of Islamicizing the West are met.
Formed in Egypt during the 1920s, the Muslim Brotherhood is an extremist Islamic group. Among its most revered thinkers is the martyr Sayyid Qutb who called for worldwide rejection of Western values before his 1966 execution. Ever since, his writings have radicalized Islamic thought, including that of al-Qaeda’s Osama bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri.
A 2007 criminal investigation into organizers of a charitable Islamic organization’s terrorist funding links yielded evidence of the Brotherhood’s strategy for implementing Sharia law in the US through gradual erosion of the Constitution. Ironically, this evidence was found in the residence of an unindicted co-conspirator in Virginia—home to many of our Constitution’s framers.
The evidence included the “Ikhwan,” a 1991 document describing the Brotherhood’s work in America as “a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying Western civilization from within and sabotaging its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions." Called the “civilianization-jihadist process,” it requires a "mastery of the art of 'coalitions,' the art of 'absorption' and the principles of 'cooperation.'“ Audiotape evidence emphasized deception.
The Brotherhood’s mandate is to establish a global caliphate, governed under Sharia. The proposed infrastructure for doing this in the US is via a complex network of benign Muslim organizations, the missions of which are to spread militant propaganda and to raise money. One such group—also an unindicted co-conspirator in the 2007 case—is the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
CAIR has proven to be a political correctness (PC) gunslinger, quickly raising the issue to silence any criticism of Islam. After the interview in which NPR’s Juan Williams, obviously still traumatized by 9/11, expressed a personal uneasiness about seeing Muslims on airplanes, CAIR immediately demanded that action be taken against him for “inflammatory comments”—for which he was fired. CAIR’s linkage to the violent Muslim Brotherhood makes its demand about Williams’ comment the ultimate hypocrisy.
Riding the PC wave to democracy’s shores has been effective for the Brotherhood in moving the civilianization-jihadist process forward while gradually eroding, and having a chilling effect upon, the rights of democracies’ citizens:
......
- Contrasting with the West’s belief in equality for all human life, Sharia extends equality only to Muslim men. Instead of fighting the Muslim perception that non-Muslim life is less valued, PC plays into it. For example, since non-Muslims are deemed unclean to handle the Koran, guards at Guantanamo have to wear gloves while handling it.
Supporting the Brotherhood’s plans for the West are real: A British radical Muslim extremist recently boasted that Islam’s flag will one day fly over the White House.
Madoff’s scam was doomed to fail for lack of enough gullible investors willing to sacrifice their money. Unfortunately, the Muslim Brotherhood’s scam suffers no such lack of gullible liberals willing to sacrifice their freedoms.
Marxism and Islam. The two go hand in hand and the Marxists, including Socialist drones like the Great O-Messiah and his Phd Black Theology aka racist, degree holder wife, are but exemplars of all that is rotten in our culture. There is nothing new here for anyone who has followed the growth of the Cultural Marxist – PC industry, or Islamic demands within Western states. But it is nice to restate the obvious especially from people who have had to fight the grotesque extremities of the moon cult and its Arab cultural progenitor. The Arabs invented Islam. Enough said.
