The Muslim Mafia in America
Tom Tancredo
The recent indictment and arrest of Colorado resident and Afghanistan immigrant Najibullah Zazi on terrorism charges has again put a spotlight on the problem of Islamic radicals plotting acts of violence. But a book released on October 15th raises the question whether the FBI’s response to the terrorist threat is being deliberately undermined by US-based organizations whose mission is the eventual Islamization of America.
Such allegations will be dismissed as alarmist by many, but critics will have to confront the book’s extensive documentation. Its authors are two investigative reporters, David Gaubatz and Paul Sperry, with national security backgrounds and solid reputations.
The most controversial part of the book is the documentation of the relationship between the Washington, D.C.-based CAIR and the international Muslim Brotherhood, a relationship that has both financial and ideological aspects. The Muslim Brotherhood is highly organized and operates in both public and covert realms. One of its avowed missions is to bring Sharia law to America as one step in the destruction of Western civilization from within.
The Council for American-Islamic Relations is well known in our nation’s capital and as a member of Congress, I had many run-ins with it. Until very recently it enjoyed a cozy relationship even with the FBI. Our nation’s news media often turn to CAIR for a “moderate Muslim response” to events of the day. Yet this book shows that the mask of moderation is only that – a mask covering its real mission.
CAIR has a record of opposing all laws and measures that aim to deal effectively with the jihad being waged against the U.S. and Western democracies by radical Islam. How “moderate” is an organization that supports Palestinian terrorists, seeks to eliminate all obstacles to Islamic immigration to the U.S., opposes the Patriot Act, and accepts funding from sources tied to the Muslim Brotherhood?
But that is not the most alarming part of the story. According to the evidence collected in Muslim Mafia, CAIR is only one part of a network of over 100 organizations in the U.S. that are serving as front groups for the Muslim Brotherhood. Their agenda is not to protect the civil rights of Muslim-Americans. Their agenda is a purely political mission – to neuter all opposition to the agenda of radical Islam.
CAIR’s operatives and apologists try to paint all critics as “Islamophobes” and “McCarthyites” and seldom responds to specific charges. They are aided in this strategy of deception by the mind-set of modern multiculturalism, which serves as a moral umbrella of denial about the mortal threat posed by radical Islam. To these apostles of preemptive forgiveness, Islam is just another exotic religion, and we can all live together in peace and friendship if we will only put away the fears and slanders propagated by the “merchants of hate.” The problem is that the principal “merchant of hate” in the modern world is radical Islam and its jihad of violence, not those who are sounding the alarm.
Fortunately, we are beginning to hear the voices of authentic leaders within Islam speaking out against the jihad waged by the radicals. The dividing line, however, between Muslims wanting to live within our democracy as Muslim-Americans and the radicals who want to replace it is not support or opposition to jihad. That dividing line, this book makes clear, is the choice of Sharia law over Anglo-American common law and the U.S. Constitution. CAIR and its allies are pursuing a plan to place civic loyalty and ultimately citizenship itself outside the Constitution and in the hands of radical imams.
The articles of indictment against Najibullah Zazi say he attended terrorist training in Pakistan. The FBI and CIA have ways of monitoring such foreign travel and surveilling suspects who purchase the ingredients for bomb-making. But if the authors of this book are correct, we face a far larger problem than these foreign-trained terrorists. We may well be growing and training our own brand of domestic terrorist who know how to destroy our nation from within.

as I understand it, we are letting 60k muslims into this country per year. This is going to come back to haunt us and obviously it is already. I am not worrying about being politically correct here, just realistic. I find it bothersome that we as a society are so blind to the obvious. Seeing all the muslims in the streets around the world celebrating 9/11 woke me up. Americans are sleeping.

Just a few years ago an Imam in the USA said something to the effect that "America's laws will eventually make it possible for Islam to take over the United States and once that happens, Islamic law will allow Muslims to control everyone in America." Unfortunately, it appears that while America sleeps, these predictions could very well come true.

It's hard to understand why our Congress and the FBI have allowed the enemies of our country enter into our government. Obama has appointed a number of avowed Communists as so called czars, with no outcry from any of the people we have elected to protect us. Congress has allowed outright enemies of our freedom to put into position of power, and furnished them the funds to do their evil deeds. The insidious, sneaky, and cunning ways they are using to change our way of life is supported by many members of Congress, and most of the media. Wake up America, its your life that is at stake.

I feel sorry for the people of the U.S. From an outside point of view it appears King Barry Obongo is doing his best to undermine the country as he sets up his cult of personality.
Unfortunately, this cult will lead the way to the U.S. becoming Islamerica.
I worked alongside American soldiers on a number of occasions and they are without doubt some of the bravest people you could ever meet. It's a pity their president can't see that and is just dealing them a slap in the face.
It seems that here in Australia, our prime minister is also working hard towards his dhimmihood. It's a sad time for the world indeed.

I hope the book gains wide currency and the ever popular night show hosts will have the courage to interview the authors and listen to their discoveries of Islam; this vile death cult, masquerading as a religion.
Wherever sharia has been implemented, all progress whether scientific or moral has completely stopped. Sharia is marked by tyranny, fear, torture and death. This is the promise of Islam.

I Can't beleive the "American citizens" of this country are actually nthinking that Sharia law would ever take place. You see In Iran when people protest that tyrannical islamic gov't they get flayed. In America if the gov't tries to impose this inconstitutional law THEY will be the ones' who get flayed into shape!!!!!
