Rep. Ellison and the authors of “Fear Inc.” are outraged that anyone would suggest that Islamic terrorists are motivated by an ideology with a theological basis. Osama Bin Laden’s own teachings confirm that he was ideologically-motivated. In “The Al-Qaeda Reader” by Raymond Ibrahim, Bin Laden says:
In fact, Muslims are obligated to raid the lands of the infidels, occupy them, and exchange their systems of governance for an Islamic system, barring any practice that contradicts the Sharia from being publicly voiced among the people, as was the case at the dawn of Islam…They say that our Sharia does not impose our particular beliefs upon others; this is a false assertion. For it is, in fact, part of our religion to impose our particular beliefs upon others.
The Muslim Brotherhood, likewise, says its “work in America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the 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.”
The September 13 event will accuse the “Islamophobes,” such as Rep. Allen West and the David Horowitz Freedom Center, of exaggerating the Islamist threat, and it will find itself contradicting even the Obama administration’s own admissions. Attorney General Eric Holder said, “You didn’t worry about this [homegrown terrorism] even two years ago—about individuals, about Americans, to the extent that we now do.”
The inescapable fact is that the Islamists, violent and non-violent, are motivated by an ideology that requires them to fight for Sharia-based governance around the world. The price of speaking out about this fact is to be labeled a hate-monger by those who wish to downplay the threat from the ideology or even deny that it exists. If Rep. Ellison is so concerned about the image of his faith, he’d be better off confronting the Islamist ideology rather than trying to silence its critics.

And people like Keith Ellison continue to wonder why many Americans have so little respect for his religion. Unfortunately,it's the actions they've taken are what's causing all of the trouble.

Representative Ellison, at least for now, has the assistance of purported Jewish "leaders," useful idiots for the jihadistas. Expect that the ACLU and ADL will
assist him in a p.r. campaign designed to con Americans about the clear-and-present
danger presented to the USA (and to the entire planet) by radical Islam.
If many Moslems DON'T engage in jihad, that is in spite of the Koran's theology, not because of it. Wake up, America, before it's too late!
In all of this, nobody made a film or showed a documentary bemoaning Jewish influence in Congress. However, if the commentators here were to be believed, then people like Ehud Olmert and Henry Waxman are considered traitors to Judaism. Allegedly this war against freedom of speech and freedom of religion is only taking place between Americans and Muslims, but the invisible hand is obvious here. Whoever selected the "evil Malcolm X Lite" picture of Ellison to go with the article has outed himself. The Hasbaras are mad that they don't have a monopoly on Congress. This article is an example of Jews using Christians as a human shield to lash out at Black Muslims.
Gee,Flipside. The reason nobody is making that sort of movie is because,Jewish Americans are loyal Americans who fought in every war this country has fought. The jury is still out on the Muslim Americans because we're not sure what side they're really on.
Ha! Oh, haha! My sides are splitting!
Movies are movies…some are twisted for dramatic purposes..like the movie twisted to conform to someones idea of the possible bad results of the Patriot Act..implying it is by a bad CIa co-operatives…movies..a muslim movie would be what? The military wing of jihad or the pr aspect of the Religion of Peace as they play the victim card..
Sure, The Muslims have invaded our political system to bring us down. The public is now being educated on Sharia, Jihad, and Taqiyya.
this is worldwide.DO NOT BUY INTO ISLAM.it is plain old EVIL.
look what they have done to a once beautiful europe,now a third world ghetto full of uneducated religious fanatics hell bent on FORCING sharia upon the countries unfortunate enough to have shown them kindness.dont make the same mistake USA,having worked in saudi arabia i know what im talking about.islam MUST be opposed wherever and whenever it raises its ugly head.
' TAQIYYA '
Do your own research about it if you don't know what this means.
islam IS EVIL. PERIOD.
islam strives for world domination.
The quran commands muslims to exercise jihad.
The quern commands muslims to establish shariah law.
The quern commands muslims to impose islam on the entire world.
islam is NOT a religion, it IS a totalitarian ideology.
islam IS and has remained a death cult from its beginnings.
islam wants to dominate all aspects of life, from the cradle to the grave.
shariah law is a law that controls every detail of life in a islamic society.
From civic- and family law to criminal law.
It determines how one should eat, dress and even use the toilet.
Oppression of women is good, drinking alcohol is bad.
The core of the quran is the call to jihad.
Jihad means a lot of things and is arabic for battle.
islam means submission, there cannot be any mistake about its goal.
islam and freedom, islam and democracy are not compatible.
They are opposite values.
mohamed's "wife" was six years old.
That makes mohamed a PEDOPHILE!!!
And you want to base a "Religion" on this a z z -holes rantings?
Are you INSANE?
I STAND with Israel
Agreed with ONE of your points: Do some research!!
YOU clearly didn't as you managed to rant EVERY Islamaphobic LIE against Islam!!
I would be honored if Ellison called me a, “loyal foot soldier in the misguided campaign against Sharia.” And if he does, I would appreciate it if he would leave out the word, "misguided". How any campaign by anyone, anywhere against the imposition of Sharia can be "misguided" is beyond my realm of comprehension. Fighting Sharia is completely guided and must remain so if we plan to survive as a free society. Anyone who believes in Sharia is a dangerous individual and must be stopped at all cost!
I haven't seen Allan Wests’ presentation nor will I see the one on Islamophobia. But I can promise you this, the folks like Ellison and Podesta cannot refute the truth. I think it would be worth the cost of admission to watch these people debate Spencer or West and many others for that matter. The truth about Sharia, the truth about Islam and it's degradation of women, the TRUTH will burn it out of existence. That is why they fight so vehemently to hide from the truth. They call names, they obfuscate. They do all manner of things to prevent you from knowing the truth. It would be comical if not so tragic.
Who paid for Ellisons trip to Mecca?
Ellison is a disgrace to our nation.
Who did he swear his oath to when sworn into Congress?
Allen West is a very loyal Patriot, he knows the history of the worthless scum that is infiltrating our government.
Did CAIR pay his way perhaps? Of course it did.
You asked, "Who did he swear his oath to when sworn into Congress?"
To God. In Arabic, that's A-L-L-A-H. There is NO overzealous requisite that to exhibit loyalty to the USA, one must or one should be a Christian. Not by the standards of OUR/US Constitution!! Who LIED to you and gave you any other impression contrary?!
Would you wear a T-shirt with a Mohammad cartoon printed on it?
You might in Montana. Don’t try it in Mecca.
Why?
Because, Islam trains a small number of its most devout believers it’s OK to kill. And Islamic killers have been trained to kill anyone who insults Allah and/or Mohammad.
In Montana you’d have a good chance none of these Islamic killers would see you.
In Mecca you wouldn’t last five minutes. One of Islam’s killers would come from out of nowhere and kill you. It is that simple.
You don’t believe me? Ask any Muslim!

We know and believe Islam is evil but these stories and many more that no one will talk about in the MSM need to be exposed and until that happens we will never be able to fight this.
They are using our Constitution against us to bring their Laws to this country.
I made a promise to my daughter that I will never give up but we need to get this message out to all those who are just spectators right now.
The PC crowd has to go in 2012. We need to get people in at all levels, LOCAL & STATE included, so we can start filtering out the mud in the system.
We need to take a stand now. We've heard it time and time again but our security is at risk and this could take generations to fix.
Most of the comments here and the author of this "piece" show the high level of ignorance that exists in the country on the topic of Islam.
This blog HAS opposed many points stated by Muslims, but has refuted NONE of the truths stated by Muslims or their supporters. The financiers of this blog are also Islamaphobic in nature and will obviously support others who oppose Islam and Muslims.
While the author of this piece lumps the misdeeds of those who commit crimes with the faith they allegedly practice when it comes to Muslims, this person completely dismisses any suggestion that a Christian who commits any crimes has also condemned their alleged faith by THEIR misdeeds. Hypocrisy at its WORST!!
All of you ignorant people cannot see it but Islam is the fastest growing religion in the STATES! Stop whining and stop dividing this great country. We need to COEXIST!
