"We're really blessed in this country to have the Judeo-Christian tradition of wanting to love each other and help each other have better lives and to enjoy life and be good to each other. As opposed to the tradition of some Islamofascist localities where they do the reverse - sending their own children off to be blown up."

    It’s Time to do Something About the Saudi Mosques on U.S. Soil

    It’s time to get serious about the Saudis. They’re putting their mosques onto our soil, in which they teach people to hate us.

    Saudi government foments religious hatred in U.S.

    What is happening in some American mosques, including a few in the Chicago area, is deeply disturbing. In certain Islamic schools, textbooks spit vitriol against Jews, Christians and other non-Muslims: “Be disassociated from the infidels, hate them for their religion.”

    You see what I’m saying?

    In mosque publications, America is the “Abode of the Infidel.” The idea of human and civil rights is heresy. Working women are immoral.

    Click here for additional quotes from such publications.

    Here’s a sample letter to send to your Senators and Representatives.

    These views are extreme, they promote violence and they are being espoused right under our noses. We knew this was happening in France, Germany and England but we didn’t know the extent of the problem here. It is not happening in all mosques or Islamic schools, by any means, but in those select ones funded by the Saudi government to disseminate the fanatic Wahhabi-style Islam that has its demagogic roots in Saudi Arabia.

    The Center for Religious Freedom just issued a discomfiting report looking at the spread of hate propaganda in America by Saudi Arabia. The center collected 200 books and other publications from mosques across the country and spent the past two years analyzing them.

    “The Saudi textbooks and documents spread throughout American mosques preach a Nazi-like hatred for Jews, treat the forged Protocols of the Elders of Zion as historical fact, and avow that the Muslim’s duty is to eliminate the state of Israel,” writes Nina Shea, the Center’s director. In addition, they “instill contempt for America because the United States is ruled by legislated civil law rather than by totalitarian Wahhabi-style Islamic law.” Woe to Christians who should be actively hated because they stir up images of crusaders and colonists and because they are “enemies to Allah, his Prophet and believers.” Woe to Muslims who advance tolerance and human rights—they, too, are infidels. Woe to homosexuals or heterosexuals who have sex outside marriage—it is considered “lawful” to kill them.

    Fifteen of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 were Saudis who were indoctrinated by this vicious Wahhabi ideology.

    The easiest way to do something about this is for our government to put massive diplomatic pressure on the Saudis to halt these activities. To make that happen, we are going to have to let our government know, that we do not want our country putting up with this kind of evil on our own shores.

    Let’s get started right here. Go to this web site, which makes it really easy to email your congressional representatives.

    Here’s a sample letter to send to your Senators and Representatives. Send them a polite email, along these lines. If you like, you are welcome to just copy and paste this letter and send it to your Senators and Representatives:

    If the email is to your Senator:

    The Honorable (full name)
    United States Senate
    Washington, DC 20510

    Dear Senator:

    If the email is to your Representative:

    The Honorable (full name)
    United States House of Representatives
    Washington, DC 20515

    Dear Representative:

    I am writing out of great concern regarding the recent newspaper reports that mosques on U.S. soil, operated by Saudi Arabia, are teaching people to do harm to Americans. Quoting from an article that appeared on February 7th, 2005, in the Chicago Sun-Times: “In certain Islamic schools, textbooks spit vitriol against Jews, Christians and other non-Muslims: ‘Be disassociated from the infidels, hate them for their religion.’ In mosque publications, America is the ‘Abode of the Infidel.’ The idea of human and civil rights is heresy. Working women are immoral. These views are extreme, they promote violence and they are being espoused right under our noses. We knew this was happening in France, Germany and England but we didn’t know the extent of the problem here. It is not happening in all mosques or Islamic schools, by any means, but in those select ones funded by the Saudi government to disseminate the fanatic Wahhabi-style Islam that has its demagogic roots in Saudi Arabia. [...] Fifteen of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 were Saudis who were indoctrinated by this vicious Wahhabi ideology.”

    I feel that it is wrong for a country such as Saudi Arabia to establish institutions on U.S. soil that teach people to hate. Hate is un-American in my eyes. It is important for us to nip this in the bud, before it takes root, and generations of people living here are taught to hate.

    I do not want to change our U.S. laws that protect freedom of speech. I would like to see massive diplomatic pressure put on Saudi Arabia to halt these activities on our soil.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to read this letter. I know you must be as concerned about this as I am. Together we can nip this in the bud.

    Regards,

    Your Name
    Your Address

    Additional info on the correct way to write to your representatives is here. We’ve got a powerful government; let’s use it to do something about this.

    Thanks for pulling together eveything we need to make lawmakers aware of this. Seems the 'hate speech' police are too busy with the mythical 'anti-Muslim backlash' to bother patrolling this beat.



      on  02/15/05  at  10:09 PM   United States  #2

    You're very welcome, Cosmo. We really have to put some pressure on the Saudis.



    Jim O.Sullivan   on  02/17/05  at  04:09 PM   United States  #3

    Finally. Someone is paying attention to this malfeasance. The American Government ca't promote religion in this county - But Anti-American governments can?

    Your superb letter is more than suitable for the average member of Congress, but what if your congresswoman is the dishonorable Cynthia McKinney? ;-/ I feel compelled to drop any "Honorable" mention. I'm also thinking of writing a more strongly worded letter just for her, along the lines of "there's only one thing you can do to atone for what you did after 9/11, and here it is..." Unless you would like to take a stab at writing one - if so I'll be sure to send it. In the meantime I'm sending yours to my senators (R-GA). thx!



      on  02/28/05  at  03:15 AM   United States  #5

    Your superb letter is more than suitable for the average member of Congress,

    RD, thanks so much.

    I know what you mean about Cynthia McKinney. I sent the letter to Barbara Boxer and got back an absurd response thanking me for my opinions on Abu Ghraib -- which I hadn't expressed and which also are very different from hers!



      on  03/01/05  at  08:28 AM   United States  #6

    Hilarious! Am going to try to contact local pols in my area to see if a polite - but firm - campaign to enlist McKinney's help in this effort has wider appeal across my district.

    According to this noxious, misleading and self-contradictory article by Greg Palast, McKinney has merely been maligned and misunderstood the whole time:

    >> The BBC report which got McKinney in hot water mentioned the Bush Administration?s reluctance to investigate associates of the World Assembly of Muslim Youth (WAMY), which the FBI secret document termed ?a suspected terrorist organization.? They may be. They may not be. McKinney?s question was only, Why no investigation? [into viable Al-Qaeda leads by Bush prior to 9/11]



      on  03/01/05  at  05:15 PM   United States  #7

    Great stuff, RD. Please keep us posted here as more info develops.



      on  01/07/06  at  06:20 PM   Germany  #8

    Well, think before diong any thing, in america, thre are many night clubs, and red light areas, and prostitutes. women working here are really immoral,

    Women should not be allowed to dishonour their dignity by doing such jobs.Well this is human right voilation as women have the right to be respected and to be seen by others with respestful eyes. not to become naked....

    and husband should be loyal to his wife and vice versa.

    and ofcourse homosexual, should be banned. just give me a single justification, like by having hoosexual partner how in he world u can have new generation. So, think before doing something, u dupes!!!!!!!!!!!



      on  01/08/06  at  03:26 AM   United States  #9

    That's a pretty interesting comment, Zumer. You want to compare cultures? What's your view on the stoning to death of women, as is part of the Sharia law culture in Iran, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, and the United Arab Emirates?



      on  01/08/06  at  07:44 PM   Germany  #10

    well, i will start form what bible says:

    "In the Old Testament of the Bible, stoning is specifically prescribed as the method of execution for crimes such as murder, blasphemy or apostasy"

    now lets see, if a man or woman ,commits a murder or do fornication.

    then both of them should recieve capital punishment.

    for example, if a person murders someone, then there are three situations:

    1. if the relatives of the victim forgives the murderer.

    2. if the murderer gives the money as sansom to the relatives of victim.

    3. the murderer recieves the capital punishment.

    now, what's wtong in it. why he or she would murder someone.

    And if someone do fornication/adultery, then he/she would stoned to death, weather it is male or female.

    If a woman or man were having so thirst, then why not they marry to whom they like.

    why not get married a live a respectful life in society.

    if someone so fornication and u do not stop him/her, then u are giving a signal to the other people / also the younger generation that there is nothing wrong doing such things.

    just think about it, give me a single justification if i am wrong..

    bible

    You confirm that you do support stoning to death. In our culture that is considered cruel and barbaric. This is a good example of how Western culture is more loving than Sharia culture.

    You confirm that you support stoning to death for "fornication." This appears to reference the Sharia custom which permits men to murder their female family members if those female family members are suspected of having sex. Again, Western culture considers this cruel and barbaric, and, since it is violence by one family member against another, particularly abominable. Again, this is an example of how Western culture is more loving than Sharia culture.

    Given your support of a penalty of death for "fornication," how do you defend the Sharia practice in which a woman's testimony is worth 1/2 that of a man's -- so that in a case of rape, if the man claims it was consensual, and the woman claims otherwise, the woman's testimony is overruled?

    From Robert Spencer's "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades):"

    Most threatening of all to women may be the Muslim understanding of rape as it plays out in conjunction with Islamic restrictions on the validity of a woman's testimony. In court, a woman's testimony is worth half as much as that of a man. (Qur'an 2:282).

    Do you support the Sharia practice in which a woman's testimony is worth one-half that of a man's?



      on  01/19/06  at  07:26 PM   Germany  #12

    well, first of all, lets set ont thing straight , in islam, a woman's testimony is half that of a man's.

    The only reason behind is that if if one forgets the other woman will recall her. thats it.and nothing more than that.

    now can u tell me one thing: In ur culture, when a girl is unmaried her fathers name is attached to her, as a family name, and when she gets married then her family name is tht of her husband.

    its just like before marraige she was a property of her father, and then after marraige she is the property of her husband. Now how can u justify this thing.

    In our culture herfather name isatached to her before and after marriage.

    from this point of view our culture is better than urs (western).

    Now u talk about that a person can stone her wife to death in case of suspicion.

    first thing is taht he is not allowed to do so. and second thing is that no action is to be taken in the case of suspicion.

    First of all confirm, then do any thing.

    So, becareful while u speak some thing like that .

    And now tell me one thing, in ur culture a woman is geven the freedom to do any thing she wants, like she can take off her cloths in the beach,

    big companies hire women to pose nude for their products.

    and in the parties the men used to swap their wifes .

    but in our culture, a womén is being protected from such thing, she cover her body with a modest cloths.



      on  01/20/06  at  03:48 PM   United States  #13

    well, first of all, lets set ont thing straight , in islam, a woman’s testimony is half that of a man’s.

    The only reason behind is that if if one forgets the other woman will recall her. thats it.and nothing more than that.

    What other woman do you have in mind? In a case of rape there is almost never another woman around to testify.

    Are you saying that you have the same opinion as the Saudi imam Abdul-Aziz bin Baz, who said that womens' "memory is weak and that their witness is in need of another woman to corroborate it" ? (Quoted from "Radical Islam's Rules," by Paul Marshall, page 33.)

    first thing is taht he is not allowed to do so. and second thing is that no action is to be taken in the case of suspicion.

    First of all confirm, then do any thing.

    How can anything be confirmed, when the rapist's testimony is worth twice that of the woman he has attacked? Given those rules of testimony, there is little to prevent women from being raped by unscrupulous men.

    like she can take off her cloths in the beach,

    big companies hire women to pose nude for their products.

    There are a small number of nude beaches, but on the vast majority of beaches, women wear bathing suits. Few if any ads have women totally nude; many ads show women in very scanty clothing.

    Who are you protecting from women who do such things -- the women, or yourself? Nobody's getting harmed by such things.

    and in the parties the men used to swap their wifes.

    Such things are extremely rare.

    And now tell me one thing, in ur culture a woman is geven the freedom to do any thing she wants [...] but in our culture, a womén is being protected from such thing,

    Yes, in Western culture, women are free to do whatever they want, and some of them will do things that you or I might or might not approve of. In Sharia culture, women have very little freedom to lead productive lives and contribute to the community. Sharia culture is a terrible thing for the women who live in it. Western culture is greatly superior to Sharia culture as a place for women to live, and as a place for the men who want to be good to the women in their lives.

    There are a small number of nude beaches, but on the vast majority of beaches, women wear bathing suits. Few if any ads have women totally nude; many ads show women in very scanty clothing.

    Now jsut tell me, one thing, that , why a women is get raped, well on e of the reason that u call tell is that she is being attracted by the rapist.

    Now how a women is being attracted , i think u have already given the reason above.

    In our culture we try to avoid such circumstances in which such unhuman things may occur, but in ur culture u approve it in the nafme of women freedom.

    In Sharia culture, women have very little freedom to lead productive lives and contribute to the community. Sharia culture is a terrible thing for the women who live in it.

    Now i tell u, how a women can lead a productive life only by living in islamic culture. If she is a mother, then she recieves the 3/4th of all the respect and obedience, by her children. I mean it is obligatory for a person to respect and obey his mother, then his mother, then his mother, and then his father.

    and, in islamic culture, if ur mother is angry with u , then u will not enter the paradise.

    Now tell me, islamic culute has given so much, and even then u r saying such things..........

    and now lets turn the table around, just tell me ,do u know about Martin Luther King???????

    What he was trying to do, he was trying to give the basic rights to the negro people...

    like there was a segregation in public transport, public services, and so on....

    and now, Black Americans have federal legislation which provides access and legal protection in the areas of public accommodations, housing, voting rights, schools, and transportation.

    This nature of the white people, against black persons is still there, u can see in ur society.



      on  01/30/06  at  02:47 PM   United States  #15

    Now jsut tell me, one thing, that , why a women is get raped, well on e of the reason that u call tell is that she is being attracted by the rapist.

    That's a belief of Sharia culture, not ours. Here the defense that "the woman was asking for it by being too attractive" is considered unacceptable.

    Your comment implies that no women are raped in Sharia culture. Not only is this incorrect, the law there is on the side of the rapist, since a man's testimony is worth twice that of a woman's in court.

    Also, in Sharia culture, male family members are permitted to kill female family members and call it an "honor killing." This is a cruel and barbaric nightmare for the women in Sharia culture.

    This nature of the white people, against black persons is still there, u can see in ur society.

    Your information is behind the times. Prejudice isn't 100% eliminated, but the vast majority of it has been eliminated.

    Since you mention prejudice, do you support the Sharia law that enforces prejudice against all non-Muslims, making them second-class citizens who must pay a special tax (called the jizya), and who have reduced legal rights? How can you even mention prejudice when Sharia law enforces prejudice against all non-Muslims?



      on  02/18/06  at  06:45 AM   Germany  #16

    Its been a long time, but, first let me get one thing straight.

    it is not that woman is being attracted by the rapist, but the other way around, i mean, by wearing scanty dresses she attracts the rapist.

    and now just tell me who in the world told u that a family male head is allowed to kill the women, in the name honor killing. can u just tell me a single ruling. No, it is not allowed. A lie from ur side. yes, i admit that this happens rarly in pakistan. But it doesnot mean it is allowed or appreciated in sharia law.

    just wnat to show what ur western culture is all about:

    http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/europe/02/17/italy.abuse.reut/index.html

    How a man can have oral sex with his step daughter and still is given less sentences from the court.

    and u r telling a bout jaziya. Yes it is right. But just want to remind onething, only under the muslim rule, the non -muslims could lead a peaceful life.

    if u dont believe it , just take a look in history about holocoust.



      on  02/18/06  at  10:38 AM   Germany  #17

    and one more thing, the follwing link just reminds me how peace loving u r. How much u respect ur family values. Great culture of united states.

    http://www.jerryspringertv.com/



      on  02/23/06  at  11:55 PM   United States  #18

    > and u r telling a bout jaziya. Yes it is right.

    This confirms that Sharia culture wants to force people of other religions to be second-class citizens. This shows that Sharia culture seeks to be a threat to people of other religions.

    > But just want to remind onething, only under the muslim rule, the non -muslims could lead a peaceful life.

    You may not be aware that nearly 1,000,000 Jews were forced to leave their homes in Arab lands. Take a look at the photos in this documentary. You will see that it cannot be said that non-Muslims were permitted to lead a peaceful life under Sharia culture.

    My question is, were you aware of this part of Sharia history? You may not have been told about it.

    > and now just tell me who in the world told u that a family male head is allowed to kill the women, in the name honor killing. can u just tell me a single ruling. No, it is not allowed. A lie from ur side.

    Not according to the United Nations. "The United Nations Population Fund estimates that the annual worldwide total of honor killings may be as high as 5,000 women."

    Again, you may not have been aware of this. I don't know what they tell you over there. I don't expect that you have a free press.

    >How a man can have oral sex with his step daughter and still is given less sentences from the court.

    That is an example of abnormal behavior that Western culture abhors and punishes. It is not an example of Western culture.
