A Critical Analysis of 'Real Islam'. Its People ... - Bukti dan Saksi

Synagogue involving two Muslim men, raids centering on Muslim-owned stores selling counterfeit
DVDs, and a high profile case involving an Iraqi doctor accused of illegally funneling funds to Iraq thru
his charity. The latter two in particular resulted in claims of profiling and bigotry from the Muslim
populace. Rather than working to foster an atmosphere of trust, this tiny Muslim community acts in such
a way as to only cause further mistrust. Then there is an organization called the Syracuse Peace Council.
These left-wing activists attempt to cover their anti-American agenda by claiming to be advocates for
world peace. However they have rightfully earned the nickname "The Syracuse Hate Council" by
witnesses of their demonstrations against the American government several times this year. This angry
organization of social malcontents calling for radical Socialist change within America happens to draw
support from the likes of Magda Bayoumi of the Islamic Society of CNY. Ms. Bayoumi is not a strong
supporter of the war on terror, but since she is against the destruction of terrorists, then is it unreasonable
to expect her to be nice enough to persuade her fellow Muslims to stop trying to kill us instead of trying
to bring down our government? Just recently Magda Bayoumi penned a letter to the editor of the Syracuse
Post Standard to complain about what she perceived as discriminatory and bigoted reporting concerning a
Post Standard article. The article discussed an investigation on whether Islamic Society of CNY may be
illegally channeling funds to Iraq for other than the claimed Bam Iranian earthquake relief, possibly to
support terrorism. This defensive attitude, crying foul and pretending to be a victim over every perceived
injustice and slight, does not help the Muslim cause in America today. As we face new terror alerts
American citizens continue to wonder whether Muslims in America are with us or against us. After
reading this book one must accept the fact that within their very secretive society radical elements exist
that wish to cause America great harm. It's not Christians or Jews who are releasing audiotapes weekly
calling for Jihad; it's the radical followers of Islam. The American Muslim community could choose to be
a great asset in this fight, as surely they would be able to easily identify the radicals living amongst them.
But alas, to the degree that they have assimilated the Qur’an is the degree to which they will continue to
support Jihad against infidels.
Although virtually all terrorists working to destroy Americans are in their own minds devout
Muslims, it needs to be re-emphasized that hopefully not many Muslims in America are terrorists. Most
of them are undoubtedly good people, but the seeds of terrorism are planted deep within the theology of
Islam. This theology, when free to grow and blossom, shows itself in the actions normal Muslims take
when they feel that Islam is challenged. Mob attacks in Pakistan, and the attacks by Muslim mobs in
Nigeria and Indonesia, are examples of Islamic violence and mob mentality from ‘peaceful’ moderate
Muslims. And as was demonstrated in "Not Without My Daughter", who knows when a peaceful, liberal
or moderate Muslim will be persuaded, enticed, or incited to turn to fundamentalism and embrace the
violence of Islam?
Stephen Schwartz stated in his June 2003 testimony to the U.S. Senate's Subcommittee on Terrorism
and Homeland Security:
"Shia and other non-Wahhabi Muslim community leaders estimate that 80 percent of American mosques out of
a total ranging between an official estimate of 1,200 and an unofficial figure of 4-6,000 are under Wahhabi
control ... Wahhabi control over mosques means control of property, buildings, appointment of imams, training
of imams, content of preaching including faxing of Friday sermons from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and of literature
distributed in mosques and mosque bookstores, notices on bulletin boards, and organizational and charitable
solicitation ... The main organizations that have carried out this campaign are the Islamic Society of North
America (ISNA), which originated in the Muslim Students' Association of the U.S. and Canada (MSA), and the
Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)." [31]
Representative Peter T. King said publicly while promoting his book "Vale of Tears" that he
estimates 80-85% of the Muslim leadership in America supports "Islamic fundamentalism". Indeed, there
have been increasing instances where Wahhabi Muslims have successfully penetrated key U.S.
institutions, such as the military and our prison system. As recent media reports have noted, the two
groups that accredit and recommend Muslim chaplains to the military have long been suspected of links
to terrorist organizations by the federal government (The Graduate School of Islamic and Social Sciences
and an organization under the umbrella of the American Muslim Foundation). Recently, one of the key
architects of the U.S. military’s chaplain program, Abdurahman Alamoudi, was arrested and charged with
