This section of "New Age Citizen" will be dedicated to uncover various issues concerning the Middle-Eastern (ME) community in Dearborn, Dearborn Heights and the larger area of SE Michigan.  It is also intended to educate the Non-ME community about the very real threats that radical Islamic groups, such as CAIR, pose to a free society. 

While I personally believe that most ME's are upstanding citizens of this great republic, it is also obvious that there is a minority that is defrauding the system, is involved in organized crime and is pushing for the "Islamification" of the United States. 

While I fully respect the practice of all religions I also believe that where ever there is a conflict between the Constitution and a religious tradition, the Constitution must ALWAYS prevail.

 Unfortunately there are far to many examples where Islamists have demanded respect for their religion that is not available within the context of a enlightened and free society.  The violence that erupted after the release of the "Mohammed with a Bomb on his Head" cartoon is a perfect example. 

"Dearborn-istan" is also consistent with 2 of the planks of the "New Agenda for America":

Plank 2: A 20-year moratorium on all immigration into the United States.
Plank 5: A strict enforcement on issues of Separation of Church and State.

As with the NAC homepage, we will be archiving the older articles and listing the new stuff at this page.  Hopefully, this will lead to an integration of the ME community in a way that preserves the inalienable rights to free speech as enumerated in the US Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Overview:

The last edition (March 26, 2008) was dedicated to Geert Wilders film, "Fitna," which was released on March 28, 2008.  There was much controversy about the release of "Fitna" and "Network Solutions" actually bowed to Islamic pressure and suspended the main site where the film was to accessed for viewing.  Since that time many of the new postings have also been removed as well, however, it is interesting how many refutations of the film ARE abundantly available.  It almost appears that the status quo is enabling these Islamic fanatics which censoring those of us with concerns about Islamic fundamentalism.  I suspect censorship though I'm not quite sure how it is being carried out at this point.  In any case I did find a working link and abridged the last edition so you can view it.

I would like to go before the Dearborn Heights School Board (Crestwood Schools) and demand that all "Halal" foods are eliminated from the school lunch program.  If any brave souls would like to join me in this endeavor please send an email to: newagecitizen@comcast.net

Both "Halal" and "Kosher" foods have no place in the public schools as they constitute an egregious violation of the constitutionally protected principle of "separation between church and state.  In both cases these foods are religiously blessed and therefore have no legitimate place in the schools.  If you must eat "halal" foods, pack a lunch.

This is being called the "Obsession" edition as we are including a 12-minute segment from the film "Obsession" which provides further evidence as to the "cultural jihad" being waged against the United States by Radical Islamists.  As always I want to make clear that I have nothing against those of the Islamic faith provided they assimilate to our culture and adopt our cultural morays.  Paramount to this assimilation process is that they recognize that we do believe in a strict separation between Church and State.  Those that will not adhere to these principles should be deported immediately.

You Still Can't Write About Muhammad
By ASRA Q. NOMANI August 6, 2008; Page A15

Starting in 2002, Spokane, Wash., journalist Sherry Jones toiled weekends on a racy historical novel about Aisha, the young wife of the prophet Muhammad. Ms. Jones learned Arabic, studied scholarly works about Aisha's life, and came to admire her protagonist as a woman of courage. When Random House bought her novel last year in a $100,000, two-book deal, she was ecstatic. This past spring, she began plans for an eight-city book tour after the Aug. 12 publication date of "The Jewel of Medina" -- a tale of lust, love and intrigue in the prophet's harem.


Corbis
It's not going to happen: In May, Random House abruptly called off publication of the book. The series of events that torpedoed this novel are a window into how quickly fear stunts intelligent discourse about the Muslim world.

Random House feared the book would become a new "Satanic Verses," the Salman Rushdie novel of 1988 that led to death threats, riots and the murder of the book's Japanese translator, among other horrors. In an interview about Ms. Jones's novel, Thomas Perry, deputy publisher at Random House Publishing Group, said that it "disturbs us that we feel we cannot publish it right now." He said that after sending out advance copies of the novel, the company received "from credible and unrelated sources, cautionary advice not only that the publication of this book might be offensive to some in the Muslim community, but also that it could incite acts of violence by a small, radical segment."

After consulting security experts and Islam scholars, Mr. Perry said the company decided "to postpone publication for the safety of the author, employees of Random House, booksellers and anyone else who would be involved in distribution and sale of the novel."

This saga upsets me as a Muslim -- and as a writer who believes that fiction can bring Islamic history to life in a uniquely captivating and humanizing way. "I'm devastated," Ms. Jones told me after the book got spiked, adding, "I wanted to honor Aisha and all the wives of Muhammad by giving voice to them, remarkable women whose crucial roles in the shaping of Islam have so often been ignored -- silenced -- by historians." Last month, Ms. Jones signed a termination agreement with Random House, so her literary agent could shop the book to other publishers.

This time, the instigator of the trouble wasn't a radical Muslim cleric, but an American academic. In April, looking for endorsements, Random House sent galleys to writers and scholars, including Denise Spellberg, an associate professor of Islamic history at the University of Texas in Austin. Ms. Jones put her on the list because she read Ms. Spellberg's book, "Politics, Gender, and the Islamic Past: The Legacy of 'A'isha Bint Abi Bakr."

But Ms. Spellberg wasn't a fan of Ms. Jones's book. On April 30, Shahed Amanullah, a guest lecturer in Ms. Spellberg's classes and the editor of a popular Muslim Web site, got a frantic call from her. "She was upset," Mr. Amanullah recalls. He says Ms. Spellberg told him the novel "made fun of Muslims and their history," and asked him to warn Muslims.

In an interview, Ms. Spellberg told me the novel is a "very ugly, stupid piece of work." The novel, for example, includes a scene on the night when Muhammad consummated his marriage with Aisha: "the pain of consummation soon melted away. Muhammad was so gentle. I hardly felt the scorpion's sting. To be in his arms, skin to skin, was the bliss I had longed for all my life." Says Ms. Spellberg: "I walked through a metal detector to see 'Last Temptation of Christ,'" the controversial 1980s film adaptation of a novel that depicted a relationship between Jesus and Mary Magdalene. "I don't have a problem with historical fiction. I do have a problem with the deliberate misinterpretation of history. You can't play with a sacred history and turn it into soft core pornography."

After he got the call from Ms. Spellberg, Mr. Amanullah dashed off an email to a listserv of Middle East and Islamic studies graduate students, acknowledging he didn't "know anything about it [the book]," but telling them, "Just got a frantic call from a professor who got an advance copy of the forthcoming novel, 'Jewel of Medina' -- she said she found it incredibly offensive." He added a write-up about the book from the Publishers Marketplace, an industry publication.

The next day, a blogger known as Shahid Pradhan posted Mr. Amanullah's email on a Web site for Shiite Muslims -- "Hussaini Youth" -- under a headline, "upcoming book, 'Jewel of Medina': A new attempt to slander the Prophet of Islam." Two hours and 28 minutes after that, another person by the name of Ali Hemani proposed a seven-point strategy to ensure "the writer withdraws this book from the stores and apologise all the muslims across the world."

Meanwhile back in New York City, Jane Garrett, an editor at Random House's Knopf imprint, dispatched an email on May 1 to Knopf executives, telling them she got a phone call the evening before from Ms. Spellberg (who happens to be under contract with Knopf to write "Thomas Jefferson's Qur'an.")

"She thinks there is a very real possibility of major danger for the building and staff and widespread violence," Ms. Garrett wrote. "Denise says it is 'a declaration of war . . . explosive stuff . . . a national security issue.' Thinks it will be far more controversial than the satanic verses and the Danish cartoons. Does not know if the author and Ballantine folks are clueless or calculating, but thinks the book should be withdrawn ASAP." ("The Jewel of Medina" was to be published by Random House's Ballantine Books.) That day, the email spread like wildfire through Random House, which also received a letter from Ms. Spellberg and her attorney, saying she would sue the publisher if her name was associated with the novel. On May 2, a Ballantine editor told Ms. Jones's agent the company decided to possibly postpone publication of the book.

On a May 21 conference call, Random House executive Elizabeth McGuire told the author and her agent that the publishing house had decided to indefinitely postpone publication of the novel for "fear of a possible terrorist threat from extremist Muslims" and concern for "the safety and security of the Random House building and employees."

All this saddens me. Literature moves civilizations forward, and Islam is no exception. There is in fact a tradition of historical fiction in Islam, including such works as "The Adventures of Amir Hamza," an epic on the life of Muhammad's uncle. Last year a 948-page English translation was published, ironically, by Random House. And, for all those who believe the life of the prophet Muhammad can't include stories of lust, anger and doubt, we need only read the Quran (18:110) where, it's said, God instructed Muhammad to tell others: "I am only a mortal like you."

Ms. Nomani, a former Wall Street Journal reporter, is the author of "Standing Alone: An American Woman's Struggle for the Soul of Islam" (HarperOne, 2006).

 

Dearborn Michigan to be invaded by Muslim Kuwaiti Terrorists

Additional Reading
Free Press article on the Kuwait-Dow Venture

Action: Contact Governor Jennifer M. Granholm

There should be absolutely no more immigration or business deals with Islamic Terrorists. And since it is impossible to know who is a terrorist and who is not, this requires that we reject all business deals with ALL Islamic countries. It is only prudent that such measure are taken at this time in order to protect the security and economic colonization of the United States by these "oil-rich" entities.

After reading this I recommend that you contact Michigan Governor Jennifer M. Granholm's office and insist that she stop the Kuwait-Dow project and insist:

* No more foreign investment from Islamic countries, be allowed in the state of Michigan
* No more immigration of people from Islamic countries, be allowed in the state of Michigan. 

In addition you might want to ask her the following questions:

(1) Number of Non-Islamic US Citizens employed at K-DOW and mean/median annual benefits.
(2) Number of Islamic US Citizens employed at K-DOW and mean/median annual benefits.
(3) Number of Islamic Non-US Citizens employed at K-DOW and mean/median annual benefits.
(4) How many additional Kuwaiti's (employees, family members, extended family) do you suppose will be invading Dearborn which is already the most concentrated population of Mid-Easterners in the United States?
(5) What are the details of the "tax credits" given to K-DOW? I want both quantitative figures as well as qualitative information on this one.
 

Here is how you can contact her:

Why Americans should oppose the Kuwait-Dow Venture

Before I get into the minutia of this issue let me summarize why my "New Agenda for America" is against further immigration and foreign ownership of US assets:

My primary reason for a 20-year moratorium on immigration is based on the fact that we cannot even sustain the 300 million already here as evidenced by water shortages and looming food shortages. Current immigration trends could result in a 1,000 million population by 2100.  That would be a three-fold increase in US population over a single 100-year period! This is simply unsustainable. Nothing "against" immigrants. Just acknowledgement of the facts. We must consider the need for sustainability and further immigration is not sustainable. Make sense?

Also, Americans DO have a right not to be colonized by foreign oil wealth from misogynistic Muslim countries and slave wealth from Communist China. The American People have a right to choose their destiny. So, yes, no more ownership of US assets also makes sense less we want to live under Sharia laws or Communist rule.

Now for my reasons to oppose the Kuwait-Dow Venture . . .

First of all you should know that I have lived in Dearborn all my life and really harbor no ill will towards people from the Middle East in general, or Muslims specifically.  In point of fact I have enjoyed the cultural diversity that it has brought, up until this point.  But I think ALL immigration MUST be halted for all ethnicities due to the fact that we are already experiencing the beginnings of resource non-sustainability throughout the country.  I also think the most prudent course, in lieu of 911, is to stop all immigration from Islamic countries immediately and to encourage Muslims, that are here, to assimilate to US culture -- something that is increasingly NOT happening.

As some have expressed, we are becoming a "salad bowl" rather than a "melting pot" with the unprecedented influx of Mexicans, Chinese, Muslim and other immigrant populations.  Let me give you a few examples of what I am referring to here as it applies to Dearborn:

* In 2007 Muslim families were pressuring a local elementary school (Kinloch) to stop saying the Pledge of Allegiance in the classroom.   While I support one's right to not participate I also think these actions illustrate a culture that has no inclination to assimilate to the cultural ideals that are prerequisites to being considered an American citizen. 

I pledge my allegiance to the flag
Of the United States of America
And to the Republic for which it stands
One nation, under god, indivisible
With Liberty and Justice for ALL.

Of course I am well aware the Islamic theocracies don't believe in extending liberty to gays, pot smokers, Christians and other non-Muslim traditions.  But if these people really have a problem with that they don't belong here.  As far as I'm concerned they should be deported if they insist on clinging to these backward beliefs.

* Between 2000 and 2003 the Dearborn and Dearborn Heights school systems have prohibited pork and have supplanted all meats with halal meats.   Both Halal and Kosher meats are religiously blessed and therefore have no place in a school system because they are a violation of the separation between church and state.  The fact that both school systems have capitulated to this is very troubling to me.  If the school administrators don't understand the concept of separation between church and state,  how can we expect them to transfer this knowledge to our children.   All religiously blessed meats should immediately be banned from all public schools immediately.

* A similar thing happened in 2007 when the University of Michigan (Dearborn) allowed taxpayer dollars to build foot baths so that the burgeoning population of Muslim students could wash their feet before their incessant prayer rituals.   Again, I find it troubling that University administrators don't see this as a violation of the separation between church and state.  The baths need to go, immediately.

* There has been a conspicuous increase of Middle Eastern wealth and population into Dearborn, and greater SE Michigan, over the last 10 years.  30 years ago Middle Easterners constituted about 3% of the Dearborn population.  Today it is growing exponentially and is currently at around 30% of the population.  And in proportion to the population increase has come an increasing disregard for American culture and morays.   In point of fact the Dearborn area is the largest Muslim population in the United States and I fear that it may be a "beach head" for Islamic Terrorism in the near future if we don't act immediately.

* There is also a conspicuous amount of foreign wealth coming into this area from the Middle East.  The big urban myth is that all these immigrants are getting 7-year moratoriums on their taxes, which is a "red-herring" as far as I can ascertain.  What we are slowly figuring out is that the mosques and businesses are being subsidized through vast cash flows from various Middle Eastern countries.   About 6 months ago (early 2008) an Iraqi was convicted of influence peddling: probably the same thing that is going on between Kuwait and the Governor.  It was disclosed that Hussein had subsidized his efforts with nearly 60-million dollars from the UN "oil for food program."  I am confident that there are huge cash flows of terrorist money coming into the Dearborn area from the Middle East.  I am also confident that this money is what explains the fact that most of Dearborn and Dearborn Heights businesses are now Mid-East owned.  If people outside of this area realized the extent of the cultural zeitgeist in this area they would be appalled.

The simple fact is the Dearborn area is literally being colonized by very suspicious flows of Middle East wealth and goodness knows how much of it is coming from terrorist groups.

* I recall reading an article some years ago that stated that the early mosques, located primarily in SE Dearborn, conducted their services in English and actually frowned upon women wearing hijabs and other blatant forms of head dress.  Today we have some of the largest Saudi-subsidized Mosques in the United States and they are purposely instructing all women to wear these forms of head dress all the time.  It is becoming so apparent that you would swear you were living in Saudi Arabia sometimes.  If you do your research it will become clear that this is not a benign, expression of religion, but rather the leading edge of a cultural jihad. 

I could give many more examples of the "cultural jihad" that we are witnessing here but I have neither the time or inclination at this moment in time.  Instead let me take you further up the "pyramid" of Mid-Eastern influence and allow me to discuss a rather harrowing experience I had a few years ago when I attended a Arab-Trade summit that was definitely not intended for the observation by mere American citizens.  This little story will illustrate the power of the Middle Eastern concerns and the corrupting influence they are having on our elected representatives that have been selling us all out for years. 

About 2 years ago I attended a "Mid-East/African Trade Summit" in Dearborn at the Fairlane club, which, of course, is now owned by Mid-Eastern interests, like just about everything else in Dearborn. The focus was on Dubai and I don't really think there was any real talk about Africa. Both Senator Levin and Congressman Dingle were speakers at the meeting, via a conference phone system. There were about 60 attendees, 30% of which were from the Department of Commerce. During the meeting I let it be known that I thought it unwise to partner with Mid-Eastern concerns, especially given the FACT that 15 of the 19 Terrorists that destroyed the WTC were from Saudi Arabia. The next morning I received a death threat in my email originating from a company in Indonesia.

I believe it was either Stalin or Lenin who predicted that the West, (that would be us), would eventually sell our adversaries the rope from which we would be hung. I want you to keep that thought in your head over the next couple of years.

Now there are those that think Islam is a benign phenomenon. They could not be more wrong. Recently Debbie Schlussel, a critic of Islam, has been threatened by Muslims in the Dearborn area for criticizing Islam. One of the perpetrators is likely to go to jail for awhile for threatening to rape and kill her.

Here is an excerpt from one of those emails:

You fucking Jewish whore I feel like firing up one of those old gas chambers and just burning up your fucking bigot pussy! I am coming for you bitch and I am goanna fuck you GOOD. You fucking cunt! Move to fucking Israel and leave us in peace you god damn bitch.
http://www.debbieschlussel.com/archives/2008/07/i_need_your_hel.html

Well I hope that I have provided an adequate thumbnail sketch for you here today.  Hopefully, it will be enough to get you to send a letter to our Governor and tell her not to allow any more immigration or business deals with Islamic countries, private equity corporations or sovereign wealth funds.  And once again I want to make it clear that I harbor no racism of xenophobia towards Muslims in general.  The problem is that we have no way of telling which of you are terrorists until the bombs start going off or until you subjugate our economy with your oil money and heroin profits.  Either way both of these forms of "cultural jihad" are threats to the very Constitution that forms the bedrock of this once-great republic.  In view of this the only prudent course that we can now take is to stop the flow of both Mid-Eastern population and Mid-Eastern wealth.  This is a serious issue of national security that we immediately implement both of these measure.

On a more positive note a researcher at MIT just found a cheap method to harness photosynthesis.  See the August 2nd (or current home page edition, www.newagecitizen.com) for more information.  As the researcher said, "there is enough sunlight falling upon the earth in one hour to provide all the energy needs of the planet for an entire year."  This could very well be the literal "light at the end of the tunnel" and the final end of funding for the spread of Islamic Terrorism through oil wealth.  And to put a final nail in the Islamo-Fascist coffin we also need to legalize Marijuana in order to cut off the spigot of heroin revenue coming out of Afghanistan.  Because if you've got really good Marijuana, what need is there for such dangerous drugs, such as heroin?  Then, as my favorite pot smoker, Louie Armstrong once said . . .

Against the Islamification of Europe

Do we really want to endure what is now going on in Europe and elsewhere in the world due to Muslim immigration?  Then we had better put a stop to it now, before we begin to face the same Islamo-Fascism that is now overwhelming Europe.  To be fair I believe we should stop ALL immigration for a period of at least 20 years: both Legal and Illegal Immigration!  That include my Scottish brethren as well.

I don't have anything against Muslims per se.  But prudence dictates that Islamic immigration into the United States MUST stop immediately.  As I see it, this will give incentive to current Muslims citizens to assimilate to our culture and limit the possibility of violent ethnic division should the number of Muslim immigrant be allowed to grow any further.

And just like the tolerance for Illegal Mexican Immigration the main culprits are US Multi-national corporations. They are drawn by the illusion of short term profits and absolutely ignore the will of 80% of American citizens who want to see a fast an comprehensive end to ALL further immigration into the United States.

 

 

 

 

 

The Arab Slave Trade

 

You really got to wonder if black activist "Malcolm X" would have embraced Islam if he had known that Muslims murdered and castrated millions of African Slaves. But the problem is not just the FACT that Muslim slave traders captured many more slaves than their American counterparts: it is the extent of the mistreatment.  Women were forced into sexual slavery.  Men were castrated.   While slavery is to be universally abhorred there is little doubt the "the religion of peace" committed far more heinous crimes than the America colonists.

This video is based on the non-fiction book, "The Legacy of Arab-Islam in Africa: A Quest for Inter-religious Dialogue."  Of course, as I have demonstrated through the "Dearbornistan" website, the "religion of peace" continues to stomp on the individual rights of non-Muslims throughout the world.  But this video/book provide a glaring reality check for both Muslims and non-Muslims alike.  Islam is a misogynistic meme that either needs to be dragged through a reformation . . . or it needs to be utterly destroyed through the infusion of objective knowledge.  

I have a feeling that if we could show this video to every black Muslim they would all become instant apostates: forever rejecting this sorry excuse for a religion.

Uncommon Senate Hearing Discusses Islamist Group Agendas
IPT News July 17, 2008
http://www.investigativeproject.org/article/722

An open hearing of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs bore witness to an unusually candid discussion about the Muslim Brotherhood's network in the United States. It was unusual in the respect that it was discussed at all. The fact that many major American Muslim organizations are derived from the Muslim Brotherhood is rarely addressed on Capitol Hill.

Dearborn Muslim Hezbo Pleads Guilty in to Sending Schlussel Anti-Semitic Death/Rape Threats
http://www.debbieschlussel.com/archives/2008/07/i_need_your_hel.html

Comment: I find it interesting how little coverage is given to what I consider blatant acts of terrorism by a very small minority of Islamists that live in the area of SE Michigan.  Click on the link (above) to read the whole disgusting story.  I think such stories only fuel the argument that no more immigrants from Mid-Eastern countries should be allowed citizenship or visas into the United States.  Of course I don't discriminate: I don't think there should be any further immigration into the United States for at least another 20 years. 

At any rate I think Debbie has done more, than anyone I can think of, to expose the underbelly of Islamic extremism in SE Michigan.  I recommend that you visit here website often in order to be truly informed:

HOW YOU CAN HELP
Printer Friendly By Debbie Schlussel

A couple of weeks ago, Mohamad Fouad Abdallah a/k/a "Mike" pleaded guilty to sending me anti-Semitic rape and death threats during the Israel-Hezbollah War in 2006. Read the entire plea agreement here--I've posted the three most important pages below.

Abdallah, a Shi'ite Muslim Hezbollah supporter--and apparently, Hezbollah member--from Dearbornistan, didn't like my writing about the many Shi'ite Muslim Hezbollah supporters in Dearborn. And so he decided to settle things the way the Islamic world settles 'em: threatening to rape and kill me. A refresher on what he sent me (you'll notice the important/offensive subject lines were left out of the plea agreement for some inexplicable reason):

Islamofascist Intimidation at Columbus State

Comment: It is becoming more apparent, by the day, that many Muslim students see free speech as a "one way street."  They should get to say whatever they want and you should just shut your mouth.  This article cites a 2001 incident where a speaker, against Islam, was prohibited from speaking for fear he might invoke Muslim violence.  We have also seen similar incidents with Hispanic ethno-centric groups that have demanded the silencing of members of Pro-enforcement groups.  I suppose both groups just fear the truth: freedom's best disinfectant.

What began as a peaceful screening of the documentary, “Obsession: Radical Islam’s War Against the West”, Monday afternoon at Columbus (Ohio) State Community College turned to shouts and intimidation as Muslim students confronted students in attendance and Islamofascism Awareness Week event organizers. The video screening was part of Columbus State’s Islamofascism Awareness Week activities hosted by the campus chapter of the Terrorism Awareness Project (TAP), which runs through Wednesday.

According to TAP president Josiah Lanning, commotion began during the first screening of the documentary film and continued to escalate throughout the afternoon. According to Lanning, an individual who identified himself as an Iraqi Muslim began loudly arguing with audience members. After continuing to disrupt the discussion period following the screening, the individual complained that the group was allowed to show the film and warned Lanning not to show the film again.

Three screenings of the Fox News documentary, “Jihad USA: Homegrown Terror” are planned for today (Tuesday), and screenings of both “Obsession” and “Jihad USA” planned for Wednesday afternoon.

Lanning expressed concerns that more confrontations might be forthcoming this week, as the school hosts a chapter of the Muslim Brotherhood-backed Muslim Student Association. Columbus State, which reportedly has one of the highest Muslim student body representations of any public higher education institution in the country, has previously been the site of threats of violence and intimidation by Muslim students.

In November 2001, campus preacher Jed Smock was evicted from the Columbus State campus on orders from administrators over concerns that his vocal criticisms of the Quran would lead to violence by Muslim students. Columbus State president Val Moeller told the Associated Press that she feared for Smock’s safety just weeks after 9/11. Moeller had refused Smock a “speaking permit” to allow him to continue preaching in a designated “free speech” area.

The confrontation on Monday is not the first time that Islamofascism Awareness Week events at Columbus State have been marked with controversy. As I reported here at FrontPage last October, “Censorship State”, Columbus State Director of Student Activities and Athletics Timeka Rashid attempted to censor IAW promotional materials, stating concerns about “campus climate”. After the FrontPage article appeared, Rashid relented and allowed the events to go on as scheduled and permitting the posting of promotional fliers around campus.

As I reported a few days later in a follow-up FrontPage article, “A Former Congresswoman Tries to Censor Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week”, Columbus State administrators attempting to censor the student events were acting at the behest of Mary Rose Oakar of the American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, who sent a letter to Columbus State president Val Moeller saying that IAW events “should not be tolerated”.

Representatives of the extremist brand of Islam have no trouble getting a hearing at the school, however, as evidenced last July when Columbus State administrators convened a “discussion on Islam” for faculty and staff led by local Islamic extremist Mohammad Dini. Before moving to Columbus, Dini had been a regular speaker at the infamous Dar Ul Hijrah mosque in Falls Church, Virginia, which was home to two 9/11 terrorists, Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi, and was led by Yemeni Al-Qaeda cleric Anwar Al-Aulaqi. Dini is also a former Muslim Student Association official and attended the Institute of Islamic and Arabic Sciences in America (IIASA), run by the Saudi government and described in one report as “largest source of Saudi hate literature in the Washington area”. IIASA was raided by the federal government in July 2004 as part of a terrorism investigation, and a number of staff had their diplomatic visas revoked and were deported to “protect the homeland”.

Lanning reports that Rashid and other administrators have been cooperative in approving this term’s IAW events, but he had not spoken with them since the confrontation by Muslim students on Monday. He said he hopes that the incident will not used by administrators as a pretext to censor the scheduled IAW activities later this week.

FrontPage will continue to monitor the situation at Columbus State and report on any further interference of Islamofascism Awareness Week events or acts of intimidation against Terrorism Awareness Project student leaders.

When Your Public High School is Run by Hezbollah
The Imad Fadlallah Saga Continues - Hezbo Principal Hits Students, Bans Christians

In 2006, I wrote about Fordson High School a/k/a "Hezbollah High." The Dearborn high school is the first majority Muslim public high school in America.

And it foreshadows what's to come in America's future as we allow more and more Muslims to immigrate here and refuse to absorb into America and mainstream American culture.

As I noted then, the principal of Fordson Hezbollah High, Imad Fadlallah, is a cousin of Hezbollah spiritual leader, Sheikh Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah--who is on the State Department Terrorist List and who issued the fatwa to Hezbollah terrorists to murder over 300 U.S. Marines and U.S. Embassy officials (among countless other terrorist acts he's okayed).


Hezbollah High: Violent, Bigoted Fordson Principal Imad Fadlallah is Hezbollah Spiritual Leader/Terrorist Mohammed Fadlallah's Cousin
Imad Fadlallah's wife, Susan, is the daughter of Hezbollah-backed Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, who was Hezbollah's negotiator during the 1985 TWA flight 847 hijacking during which Hezbollah tortured to death Navy Diver Robert Dean Stethem. Before that, he was the head of the Shi'ite Amal Militia, which has been absorbed into Hezbollah.

As I also noted, Fadlallah--a supporter of Hezbollah, like many in his student body--gave students the day off in 2005 and "extra credit" if they campaigned at the polls on election day for candidates endorsed by the extremist Muslim group, Arab American Political Action Committee (AAPAC). AAPAC is headed by Hezbollah agent Osama Siblani, whose brother works for Al-Manara (Hezbollah TV) in Lebanon. Students from Fordson who took the deal were seen campaigning against Christian candidates at the polls, including Christian Arabs.

And then, there's Fadlallah's many extended trips to Lebanon on school time, with the Dearborn school district's full knowledge and approval--including the one close to the time of the Hezbollah-Israel War. Just who was he visiting and what was he doing there?

Well, the Imad Fadlallah saga continues. And it gets worse.

A few weeks ago, I attended a Dearborn School Board meeting. Not much happened, but at the beginning of the meeting, board members were given what was described as "a confidential investigation of a complaint by a Fordson student."

I knew what the complaint was about. It was the reason I was at the meeting. But the complaint wasn't discussed. That might have something to do with the fact that the man who handed out confidential copies of the complaint is John Artis, the man who is retiring as Dearborn Schools Superintendent and who has made a career out of being beholden to extremist Muslims.

The complaint is that Fordson Principal Fadlallah hit one of his students. And it's reportedly not the first time. Apparently, corporal punishment at Hezbollah High is a common behavior. Like the last time he allegedly hit a student, Fadlallah might have gotten away with it. But there was a witness in the room--reportedly another student--and a teacher walking buy his office heard the smack of his hand at the point of contact with the student body. The teacher is not backing down, despite pressure from the Dearborn Schools administration.

And Fadlallah and members of the Islamic community are pressuring the student who was hit and his family. Sources say Fadlallah sent four employees, including allegedly an Arabic translator, to tell the parents to keep quiet or bad things would happen to them and it "wouldn't be good for the (Arab Muslim) Community."

Despite repeated behavior like this and an alleged grade-altering scam, which Fadlallah reportedly oversaw in order to inflate his school's performance), Fadlallah was allowed to keep his job. Dearborn is little Bint Jbeil (the Hezbollah stronghold in South Lebanon), after all.

But that's not the whole story. Fadlallah has replaced a number of employees at Hezbollah High with his hand-picked cronies. His cousin, Majed Fadlallah, is a Vice Principal. A number of Christians have been fired and replaced by Muslims. And it's not a coincidence. He's a religious bigot.

Trey Hancock was an assistant wrestling coach at Fordson for five years. It was a volunteer position, and he enjoyed it as his son--a Fordson junior--is a successful wrestler on the Fordson Wrestling Team. But in his spare time, Hancock--a descendant of great American John Hancock--is a Christian minister. And principal Imad Fadlallah didn't like that, so he fired Hancock in violation of civil rights laws barring discrimination based on religion.

Moreover, Fadlallah made the unconstitutional, illegal fiat that neither Hancock nor his wife were allowed to take part in or assist the team in any way except watching wrestling matches in which their son participated. And they were harassed over that, too.

Hancock has never mixed religion with his wrestling coach position, and there is no evidence to the contrary. But what makes Fadlallah mad is that at least one Muslim wrestler--who was friend's with Hancock's son--on the Fordson team converted to Christianity before he even reached high school. The church, at which the Hancocks minister, helps abused Muslim women who are trying to escape violent husbands and seeking divorces. In short, what he does in his private life--and because what he does involves Christianity--Hancock's civil rights are non-existent at the tax-funded, public school run by relatives of Hezbollah's spiritual leader.

At a recent Dearborn School Board meeting, PTA member and Fordson parent Hussein Berry--also a relative of the Hezbollah-backed Shi'ite Amal Lebanese Parliament speaker Nabbih Berri--objected to Hancock's private website, saying that because he has pictures of himself with the Fordson wrestlers he used to coach, that this is an improper mix of church and state. That's absolute bunk.
 

The Dawning Of A New Dark Age: A Collection Of Essays On Islam

On September 11, 2001, Muslim terrorists launched an attack on the United States to punish it for being what Osama bin Laden considered ‘the land of the infidels’! In fact, this attack was an attack on the entire Western world and, even more important, it was an attack on Western civilization, the underlying objective being to take civilization back fourteen hundred years to a time of great glory for the Islamic world.

In the wake of the attack by young Muslim extremists, which resulted in the collapse of the twin towers of the World Trade Center in Manhattan, our leaders attempted to assure us that the terrorists did not represent the entire Muslim world. It was said that they were the actions of a minority, of an extreme fringe group. It was, and continues to be, troubling, however, that we have heard very little strong condemnation coming from the supposed moderate Muslim community. Who are these moderates? Why have they not spoken out more vociferously? Do they really exist? When will they speak out with moral indignation? Indeed, will they ever?

For most Westerners Islam is thought to be just another world religion, equal to Christianity and Judaism. But is this really the case? Upon closer study, Islam seems to be far different from the other two religions. Certainly no one would accuse Muslims of being tolerant, non-judgmental, non-violent or peace-loving! While Muslims have been allowed to build hundreds of mosques in Western countries, Christian churches may only rarely be built, if ever, in Muslim countries! Indeed in some Muslim countries such as the Sudan, it is official government policy to demolish churches! In addition, it is difficult to believe that any world religion would advocate treating women as second-class citizens, and actually get away with it!

The concept of brotherhood in Islam is strong. The posture advocated by Prophet Mohammed in the Koran toward non-Muslims, however, is to seek them out and annihilate them. The phenomenon of suicide bombers is at once both pathetic and chilling. On the one hand, it is pathetic that young Muslims are taught that they can gain entrance into paradise by taking people’s lives in such a gruesome manner. Carnal pleasures, of course, await the males upon entrance into heaven! On the other hand, it is chilling to think that there are any people living in the 21st century ready to teach and encourage such savagery. What is the supposed theological justification for holding to such beliefs? Indeed, is there any such thing in Islam as theology in which the tenets of the faith are examined critically? Isn’t it the case, rather, that the teachings of Prophet Mohammed are accepted literally, and without question?

In his book, The Dawning of a New Dark Age, Mark Alexander explores these questions, and often finds disturbing answers. Unlike many authors on the subject, Mark actually lived and worked among Muslims for many years; so he has first-hand knowledge of the religion and culture. While on his tours of duty in the Middle East, Mark immersed himself in Islam and Arabic culture, studying the religion both from Occidental and Oriental perspectives. He familiarized himself not only with the Koran, but also with the beliefs and attitudes of Muslims in the street. This experience has given him unusually clear insights into the aspirations of the Muslim world. Mark’s conclusions will not be comforting to those who would like to believe that the long-term threat to the West is limited to the aspirations of a few fundamentalist terrorists.
 

Pat Condell's Corner

Pat Condell is from England and provides a glimpse of the plans Islamic Fundamentalists have for the United States.  He has a dry, cutting sense of humor which is good for a laugh.  But he truly gives perspective to the unease between Muslims/Non-Muslims in Europe and makes an incredibly good argument for stopping the further immigration, of people from Muslim countries, into the United States.  Having said that I want to make clear that New Age Citizen does not discriminate on this issue: we want no more immigration, Legal/Illegal, of any ethnicity into the United States, until American workers are economically secure once again.  We feel such a moratorium should last a minimum of 20 years.  See the "New Agenda for America" for more information on our political planks and positions.

A word to Islamofascists


 

Letter to Pat Condell:

Pat Condell: [pat@patcondell.net]

I live in Dearborn, Michigan . . . the most concentrated population of Muslims in the United States. I've recently started a section titled "Dearbornistan" where I am showing some of your videos:

http://www.newagecitizen.com/Dearbornistan.htm

Hope you don't mind. But frankly, I wouldn't care if you did. [picked that humor up from you, hee, hee]

Anyway, onto more serious stuff:

* You said the witch was executed recently. Which witch? Was that the female that caused the Saudi to become impudent? I see no articles verifying her death as of yet.

* Any opinion on what is going on in Kosovo? I am mystified as to why the US is supporting an Islamic state so close to Europe. Well, not really. See the following link for more perspective:

http://www.newagecitizen.com/Homepage%20Archive/index080301.htm#Commentary_Kosovo


* Also wondering what you thoughts are on the attempted censorship of Wilders "Fitna" film; your opinion of him etc. See the current "Dearbornistan" page for more information.

* Finally, if you have any perspectives as to how Middle Easterners are buying up our city I'd sure love to hear your perspectives. I don't think they raised the money working a second job. Just today an Iraqi was charge in a Iraqi "oil for food" scandal (through the UN) where he was given 3 million barrels of oil. Not sure how that works out but at even $30/barrel that grosses to 90 million dollars. You could sure buy a lot of gas stations with that allowance.

At any rate I appreciate your brave "stand ups" on the issue of Islamic Fundamentalism. You might also be interested in viewing the video "What the West Needs to Know" . . . aslo at the current "Dearbornistan" page.

That's all for now.

Yours in Freedom,

Best Source of Information on the Mid-Eastern Community in SE Michigan
http://www.debbieschlussel.com/

I don't intend to spend a lot of time on this section because there is really no reason to invent the wheel here.   Over the years I have found the Debbie Schlussel's website is probably the best single source of "alternative" information on the Mid-Eastern (ME) Community.  If you live in SE Michigan and want an alternative view of the ME community this is a site that you should visit regularly.  I think what you read here will both educate and infuriate you.  And sometimes that is a good thing.  I don't necessarily endorse everything that Debbie says, as is the case with any person or article that I might make reference to.  But I do think you will find this information source to be particularly revelatory.

The Violent Oppression of Women in Islam: Banned by YouTube
http://link3.streamhoster.com/?u=seanruiz&p=/National_Events/07-1022_IFAW/07-1023_VOOW_videol.wmv&odaid=3637

This is an extremely disturbing video and not for those with weak stomachs.  But I present it here because I think it shows a side of Islamofacism that is largely "covered up" in the global media.  This video underlines my argument against further immigration into the United States by any group.  But in the wake of 911 I think it prudent that we specifically and immediately stem the flow of immigrants from all Muslim countries.
