On Boycotting Radical Islamic Nations, Muslim Brotherhood Front Organizations, U.S. and Canada, &

In this mailing: Nonie Darwish: On Boycotting Radical Islamic Nations Thomas Quiggin: Muslim Brotherhood Front Organizations, U.S. and Canada Denis MacEoin: The Latest Applicant to be "The Muslim Voice" Heshmat Alavi: Please Work with the Iranian Opposition On Boycotting Radical Islamic Nations by Nonie Darwish  •  January 31, 2017 at 6:00 am The interviewer seemed shocked to hear that I do not have any Arab or Muslim friends who are protesting President Trump's ban, and that many immigrants of Islamic origin support the ban and are fed up and embarrassed by what jihadists are doing. The lesson America needs to know is that the West is not doing Muslims a favor by constantly treating them as children who should be shielded from reality. They hungry for the truth: that their educational system and mosque preaching are full of incitement, are abhorrent, hate-filled and the foundation upon which violent jihad is built. Muslims need to know that the world does indeed have a justifiable and legitimate concern about Islam and actions done in the name of Islam by Muslims. Muslims need to look at themselves in the mirror and see the world from the point of view of their victims. Instead, the West is sacrificing its culture, values, laws, pride and even self-respect. It might compassion that leads the West to take in millions of Muslim refugees but it is reckless compassion. Do Westerners question the motivation of Islamic theocracies as to why ultra-rich Arab nations are sending us their refugees but taking in none? Some "tough love" is urgently needed if Muslims are to be motivated to change and reform. President Donald Trump signs an executive order restricting immigration, January 27, 2017. (Image source: Reuters video screenshot) Early this morning an Arabic radio station in the Middle East called asking my opinion about President Trump's ban on refugees and citizens of seven Muslim nations. The radio host, who sounded angry over the ban, was a Christian Arab. She was surprised to hear that I supported the ban and think that it should have taken place the day after 9/11. She then asked me if I knew any Arab American activist who was against the ban because she wanted to interview someone against the ban. She seemed shocked to hear that I do not have any Arab or Muslim friends who are protesting the ban, and that many immigrants of Islamic and Middle East origin support the ban and are fed up and embarrassed by what jihadists are doing. Continue Reading Article Muslim Brotherhood Front Organizations, U.S. and Canada by Thomas Quiggin  •  January 31, 2017 at 5:00 am The 2008 Holy Land Relief terrorism funding criminal trial resulted in multiple convictions and was touted as the one of the largest terrorism financing trials in American history. Expectations were high that the 2008 trial would be followed by further trials involving the listed unindicted co-conspirators such as CAIR USA and the Islamic Society of North America. However, with the appointment of Eric Holder as the U.S. Attorney General in 2009, all further actions on this file appear to have been frozen. Holder would later speak at a conference supporting one of the unindicted co-conspirators. It is not clear if the ongoing criminal investigation focuses only on those individuals leading IRFAN at the time of its delisting as a charity and listing as a terrorism entity, or if the investigation also includes those who helped found IRFAN. This may be an important distinction, as the Canada Revenue Agency stated that IRFAN was deliberately created and designed to circumvent Canadian terrorism-funding rules. It appears possible that the Trump Administration will crack down on Islamist extremist groups in the USA. This would likely have a spill-over effect into Canada and Europe, though greater attention to border security and issues of funding terrorism. The emblem of the Muslim Brotherhood, and its founder, Hassan al-Banna. U.S. Senator Ted Cruz last week submitted legislation to designated the Muslim Brotherhood as a Terrorist Organization. Cruz (R-TX) earlier had a bill in the Senate which would not only ban the Muslim Brotherhood in the U.S. but also three of its front groups: Council for American Islamic Relations (CAIR) USA, Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) and the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT). These American-based front groups have corresponding chapters or organizations in Canada as well.

The acceptance of a legislation formulated by humans means a preference of the humans' limited knowledge and experiences to the divine guidance: "Say! Do you know better than Allah?" (2:140).... For this reason, the call for secularism among Muslims is atheism and a rejection of Islam. Its acceptance as a basis for rule in place of Shari'ah is downright riddah [apostasy]...." — Yusuf al-Qaradawi. We Muslims believe that Allah is the sole Creator and Sustainer of the Worlds.... If they do not [observe His injunctions and to judge according to them], then they commit kufr [unbelief], aggression, and transgression." — Yusuf al-Qaradawi. There have never been any effective democracies in the Islamic world. The idea that human beings can replace God as legislators is obnoxious to classical Islamic thought and to modern Islamist convictions. Men and women do not choose how to live: God has been there first. Several of the ECFR's own pronouncements indicate an unwillingness to compromise with European norms. "The Shari'ah is for all times to come, equally valid under all circumstances. The Muslim insistence on the immutability of the Shari'ah is highly puzzling to many people, but any other view would be inconsistent with its basic concept." — Yusuf al-Qaradawi. Yusuf al-Qaradawi (Image source: MEMRI video screenshot) The European Council for Fatwa and Research (ECFR) plays an important role in the Fiqh al-'Aqalliyyat ("Jurisprudence for Minorities") world. It is now based in Dublin, having been founded in London in 1999 by the Federation of Islamic Organizations in Europe. Apart from issuing fatwas (principally those of leading Muslim Brotherhood ideologue, Shaykh Yusuf al-Qaradawi), it aims to supervise the education in Europe of local imams, to bring together Muslim scholars living in Europe, to resolve issues that arise on the continent (and UK) while operating with strict respect for shari'a law (which implies there should be no compromise), and to establish itself as an approved authority wherever Muslims live as minorities. This latter aim would suggest that the ECFR might one day possess an authority that would override that of local and national shari'a councils, and its members would expect to be the first and perhaps only voice to which parliaments and parliamentary bodies would lend an ear in their deliberations on how to treat their Muslim minority communities.

Nearly two dozen former senior American government officials hand-delivered a letter to President Donald Trump urging his administration to work with the Iranian opposition: Iran's exiled resistance, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI). Concessions provided to Iran by U.S. President Barack Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry were troubling, even among those who supported the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Cash from Washington to Tehran for the release of Americans held in Iran came first. Second was Kerry advocating in Iran's favor to provide the mullahs access to the U.S. banking system. Third came America's top diplomat cajoling businesses to open shop in Iran. Alongside these measures came a trend of passivity and neglect. The Obama administration chose not to respond to Iran's missile tests, ongoing support for terrorism, atrocious human rights record and the Syria genocide it did nothing to stop or even alleviate. Most recently, Iran violated yet again an obligation to limit its heavy water storage to less than 130 metric tons. And the Ayatollahs are continuing their production, evidently feeling good after their excess amount was purchased by Washington. Continue Reading Article

Religion of Peace......My Democracy Socialist Donkey!!!

Food For Thought!  You can ask any person, between the ages of 18 and 25, if they have ever heard  Of the Nuremberg Trials.  It is possible that one person out of thirteen will say they have heard of the Trials.  However, even that one will not be able to tell you what (not who) was on trial. Those same people will not be able to tell you the name of the current Vice President. Eighty four percent of those who receive this email will not completely read it...if they read any of it at all. Ten percent will read it, but they will choose not to forward it on to others. The remaining 6% most likely will forward it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The war started in the 7th Century and lasted through the 17th Century.  Many will contend it never stopped; the facts below are historically correct. That is why many of us choke when we hear someone say we will defeat or contain these Islamic terrorists in a few years, or even "30 years" as has been stated by Leon Panetta.  If the latest batch of murders, beheadings, and killing of innocent Christians has at all shocked you, it is time for you to read this compilation of historical facts about the intense hatred that Muslims have for any and all who are not Muslims. WE ARE THE STUPID In 732 A.D., the Muslim Army, which was moving on Paris, was defeated and turned back at Tours, France, by Charles Martell. In 1571 A.D., the Muslim Army/Navy was defeated by the Italians and Austrians as they tried to cross the Mediterranean to attack southern Europe in the Battle of Lepanto. In 1683 A.D., the Turkish Muslim Army, attacking Eastern Europe, was finally defeated in the Battle of Vienna by German and Polish Christian armies.  This nonsense has been going on for 1,400 years!  The sad thing is that more than half of all politicians do not even know any of this.  If these battles had not been won, we would most likely be speaking Arabic.  And Christianity could be non-existent.  Judaism certainly would not exist! Reality check:  A lot of Americans have become so insulated from reality that they imagine America can suffer defeat without any inconvenience to themselves.  Think back:  The following events are true historical facts.  It has been many years since 1968, but history keeps repeating itself. 1. In 1968, Robert Kennedy was shot and killed by a Muslim male. 2. In 1972, at the Munich Olympics, Israeli athletes were kidnapped and massacred   by Muslim males. 3. In 1972, a Pan Am 747 was hijacked and eventually diverted to Cairo where a fuse was lit on final approach.  Shortly after landing, it was blown up by Muslim males. 4. In 1973, a Pan Am 707 was destroyed in Rome – with 33 people killed – when it was attacked with grenades by Muslim males. 5. In 1979, the United States Embassy in Iran was taken over by Muslim males. 6. During the 1980s, a number of Americans were kidnapped in Lebanon by Muslim males. 7. In 1983, the United States Marine barracks in Beirut was blown up by Muslim males. 8. In 1985, the cruise ship Achille Lauro was hijacked, and a 70-year-old American passenger was murdered and thrown overboard in his wheelchair by Muslim males. 9. In 1985, TWA Flight 847 was hijacked at Athens, and a United States Navy diver – who was trying to rescue passengers – was murdered by Muslim males. 10. In 1988, Pan Am Flight 103 was  bombed byMuslim males.     11. In 1993, the World Trade Center was bombed for the first time by Muslim males. 12. In 1998, the United States embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed by Muslim males. 13. On 09/11/01, four airliners were hijacked.  Two of the planes were used as missiles to take down the World Trade Centers.  One plane crashed into the United States Pentagon, and the other plane was diverted and crashed by the passengers.  Thousands of people were killed by Muslim males. 14. In 2002, the United States fought a war in Afghanistan against Muslim males. 15. In 2002, reporter Daniel Pearl was kidnapped and beheaded by – you guessed it – a Muslim male.  (Plus two other American journalists who had just recently been beheaded.)  16. In 2013, the Boston Marathon bombing resulted in four innocent people, including a child, being killed and 264 other people injured by Muslim males. No, I really do not see a pattern here to justify profiling.  Do you?  So, to ensure we Americans never offend anyone – particularly fanatics intent on killing us – airport security screeners will no long be allowed to profile certain people. So, ask yourself:  "Just how stupid are we?!?!" Have Americans completely lost their minds or just their "power of reason?" As the writer of the award winning story "Forrest Gump" so aptly put it,  "Stupid is as stupid does." You now have the opportunity to send this on to other email contacts. Please do that.  Or you can just sit back, keep complaining and do nothing.   Wake up America!   PS. And don’t forget the 14 people killed in San Bernardino Last year.  OH, and what about the night club in FLa.

Former ECB hawk: ‘Destroy Eurozone to make Europe thrive

Former ECB executive board member Jürgen Stark / Facebook page InstaForex Česko

Jürgen Stark, who served on the ECB’s executive board during the financial crisis, said it is time to “think the unthinkable. And it is already unthinkable to think about the restart of Europe, which means we have to be creative. But in order to be creative, you have to destruct [sic] something.” In an interview published by The Telegraph, Stark is critical of the ECB, because:

“The ECB talks a lot about structural reforms. It has issued research papers about the effects of structural reforms in the medium to longer term – this has no effect. Policy is not in line with communication. As long as the ECB gives this signal in its operations to the governments that ‘we are the backstop’ and ‘we will prevent country ‘a‘ or country ‘b’ from becoming insolvent’, there will be no structural reforms. The politicians don’t feel the heat.“

Continuing his discussion of the core problems of the Eurozone, Stark mentions the “different economic structures,” “different economic performances,” of the various Eurozone countries and how there is no longer convergence, but rather divergence of their economies. After a calm beginning in 1999, followed by the “perfect storm” of 2008, necessary reforms have not been made and nothing has been resolved. Stark’s solution is to ‘reset’ Europe:

“less centralisation of politics in certain areas. In this respect, I would say reduce the euro area to the core – and the core is defined as those economies which have a similar production structure, similar economic structure and which are really keen to keep the euro and the economic and monetary union (EMU) together. And this means that others have to find their way – maybe in an extended EMU – to have as the core the euro and the European monetary system [and] have this kind of staggered integration.”

“I say the core is France and Germany, and then some smaller countries. So the basis is the old European Economic Community (Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Germany), without Italy – plus Austria and Finland.”

Stark went on to point out that countries such as Italy, which has seen its economy stagnate since the crisis, would be better off outside the single currency area. The interview comes a week after the current Bundesbank president, Jens Weidmann, attacked the ECB’s quantitative easing programme, warning that purchasing government bonds risks turning central banks into “prisoners of markets or fiscal policy.”
