FBI Gets "Muslim Mafia" 'Smoking Gun' Documents
Documents used in writing the book Muslim Mafia, which exposed CAIR's ties to terror groups and alledgedly confirmed its role as a front group for terrorist organizations, are now in the hands of the FBI. Let's hope the feds finally learn the truth about CAIR which is always promoted as moderate positive voice for Islam. Wake up America! Islam is not a benign religion!

CAIR Boasts of Influence on Media after Fort Hood
Click on the title to read the article and interview. No doubt about it, CAIR thinks it won the day by influencing the media to reflect a positive image of Islam after the most horrific of attacks on American soil since Sept 11 2001. Remember how I mentioned in a previous post that they were out there immediately condemning the shootings? Then they have the nerve to describe Hasan the shooter as being non-devout! Hellooo! According to the Koran, it is the devout Muslims that engage in jihad! True Islam demands jihad but don't take my word for it. Read the Koran and see for yourself. Don't allow yourself to be fooled by an organization cut off by the FBI for its ties to Hamas and above all don't let a spokesman who himself has ties to Hamas convince you that Islam is a peaceful non-violent religion.

Jihadists Playing Us for Suckers
It is heartening to watch more and more commentators, pundits and analysts now making the same points that Brigitte Gabriel has been making for years. Better late than never! If all goes according to plan, we should have a special email alert to send to you tomorrow. Stay tuned…

November 10, 2009 Jihadists In Military Playing U.S. for Suckers
http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2009/11/10/cal-thomas-hasan-muslims-military-political-correctness/ by Cal Thomas
By now, the script should be disturbingly familiar. Whether in the Middle East, or increasingly in America, a fanatical Muslim blows up or goes on a shooting spree, killing many. This is quickly followed by "condemnations" from "Muslim civil rights groups," like the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). We are then warned by the president and some newspaper editorials not to jump to conclusions, or to stereotype. Yasser Arafat wrote this script, which he used with great success throughout his bloody career as a terrorist. Suddenly, the issue of gays in the military doesn't seem as important as jihadists in the military. If you were an enemy of America, not only would you fight overseas and develop nuclear weapons (Iran), you would also engage in an even more effective strategy by striking at America's underbelly. This is our most vulnerable region because we now tolerate virtually everything, indulge in political correctness and subscribe to a bogus belief that if radical Islamists can see we mean them no harm, they will mean us no harm. The federal government at all levels has hired and promoted Muslims to influential positions. It requires "sensitivity training" for federal employees, including those who work at the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Last week, the House Judiciary Committee, dominated by liberal Democrats, defied the White House and removed from the USA Patriot Act a tool for tracking non-U.S. citizens in anti-terrorism investigations. As our enemies grow stronger and more emboldened, they see us becoming weaker and less committed. No amount of evidence -- from Koran verses urging the killing of "infidels," to cries of "God is great," reportedly shouted by the alleged Ft. Hood shooter, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan -- will cure our self-deception. Sun Tzu famously wrote that all war is deception. But it takes two to deceive and the United States is behaving like a willing partner. People claiming to know Hasan told interviewers he made frequent statements against the wars and the U.S. presence in Islamic countries. Texas Republican Rep. Michael McCaul, told reporters after he was briefed on the shootings that Hasan "took a lot of advanced training in shooting." Why would a psychiatrist need advanced training in shooting unless he believed in murder as therapy? Shouldn't that, coupled with his statements about "the aggressor" and other actions -- including his preference for Muslim clothing -- have alerted someone in authority that he might be a time bomb waiting to go off? Yes, absolutely. But who wants to jeopardize a career by raising such questions and becoming the target of "civil rights groups" and politically correct dupes? Intimidating Americans into silence when they know better is also a very effective strategy when fighting a war. Sound minds not brainwashed by our own "re-educators" should have seen this coming. Though born in America to Jordanian immigrant parents, Hasan described himself as a "Palestinian." He got into trouble by attempting to proselytize some of his patients. Most top federal agencies, including the Pentagon and DHS, now have offices of "civil liberties," offices recommended by the 9/11 Commission to focus on "outreach" to the Muslim community. In this, they follow efforts by the Bush administration, which dispatched Karen Hughes to tell Muslim women in Saudi Arabia that American women are so free they can drive their own cars. The Saudi women were not impressed. It's one thing to be suckered by others. It's quite another to sucker yourself. How much longer will we tolerate fighting this war as if it were a minor crime wave? Our enemies are fighting to win and they are fighting everywhere, including within our borders. People trained to appear non-threatening, until the threat becomes obvious and it is too late to do anything about it, are infiltrating our government and society at every level. It is irrelevant that some have put the number of radicalized Muslims worldwide at 10 percent. Even if that figure is accurate, one hundred million jihadists can cause a lot of damage, as they plot the destruction of Western democracies. Other wars have been won with far fewer soldiers and far fewer dupes.

Jihad at Fort Hood – by Robert Spencer
Jihad at Fort Hood – by Robert Spencer This is a thoughtful, well-done article about the perpetrator of the awful events at Ft Hood yesterday. As I find them I will post more articles like this because I am afraid that the mainstream media and even Fox News is not addressing the jihad link. As citizens we need to take a serious look at what jihad can possibly mean for our society. If this doesn't wake us up what will it take? Did you happen to notice how quickly CAIR put out a statement condemning his actions and saying they had nothing to do with Islam? Sorry people, if you believe that I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.

We Need YOU in the Fight
Below are excerpts from an email I received today from David Kupelian, Managing Editor of World Net Daily. I have sent this email out to many of my friends who I hope will send it far and wide. I am so thankful there are still people in this country brave and bold enough to find out the truth no matter what the cost and risk. I only hope that one day I can be just as courageous. Please understand that the threat of militant Islam is very real for our country. It is not a benign peaceful religion. The Islam you see on the news today is the same Islam as practiced in the days of Mohammed. As Americans we must wake up and realize the threat to our country is coming from within all in the name of multiculturalism, diversity and tolerance and is supported by CAIR and the ACLU. Wake up, look around at what is happening in your communities and take a stand against Islam and Sharia law!

We need YOU in the fight
Help WorldNetDaily defend against Islamists' intimidation
David Kupelian Managing Editor, WND
If you're like most normal, decent Americans, you're horrified at the radical leftist coup playing out in the halls of power every day, maniacally intent on transforming our country in the most radical ways, whether we like it or not. You hear about this every day, and are justifiably outraged.
But there is a second front in this war, one less obvious, but just as ominous. And that is the ongoing radical Islamic subversion of our country, far more advanced than most people realize, to the point that today most of America's largest "mainstream" Islamic "civil rights," "charitable" and "lobbying" organizations are in fact fronts for the dangerous international Muslim Brotherhood, the parent organization of al-Qaida and Hamas. If you're tempted to glaze over this paragraph because what it says doesn't sound familiar - don't. This is not my opinion; federal law enforcement confirms there exists a network of wealthy Islamic organizations within the U.S. dedicated to supporting terrorist groups and subverting our constitutional government.
The only reason we know about such things - whether it's Marxist radicals in the White House or the Islamist subversion of government - is because of the New Media, that is, the Internet and talk radio and some cable news. Most in the Old Media, laughably misnamed the "mainstream media," are either asleep at the switch, too afraid to report the whole truth, or worst of all, are complicit.
Regular Americans cheer when they see New Media investigators expose radicals' attacks on America. Like WND's own Aaron Klein, who first reported back in April on White House communist czar Van Jones, revelations picked up during the summer by Glenn Beck, who then hammered Jones daily on his popular Fox show until he was forced to resign.
Or like the two 20-something ACORN investigators, "prostitute" Hannah Giles and "pimp" filmmaker James O'Keefe, who dramatically exposed that criminal enterprise with hidden video.
CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad shakes hands with intern Chris Gaubatz, aka David Marshall, at CAIR's national headquarters in Washington, D.C., in 2008
And then there's the ultimate ACORN-style investigation, more daring and more dangerous than you can imagine. Last year, a young man named Chris Gaubatz, along with two young ladies, pretended to convert to Islam - he grew a beard, they wore veils - and landed positions as interns with the notorious Council on Islamic-American Relations, or CAIR, whose national headquarters is just three blocks from the U.S. Capitol.
Mind you, CAIR is known by the U.S. government to be a Saudi-funded, terrorist-front group, whose terror connections caused the FBI earlier this year to cut off ties with the organization. The U.S. Justice Department has likewise branded CAIR an "unindicted co-conspirator" in the largest terror-funding trial in U.S. history. In other words, in law enforcement terms CAIR is a "dirty" organization. It has supported known terror groups like Hamas, it has engaged in placing interns and staffers in key congressional offices, and works ceaselessly to undermine America's post-9/11 security, according to multiple FBI agents.
Our knowledge of all this increased dramatically with WND Books' recent publication of the blockbuster book "Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld That's Conspiring to Islamize America," co-authored by former federal agent and terror investigator P. David Gaubatz - Chris Gaubatz's father.
A U.S. State Department-trained Arabic linguist and counterterrorism specialist, in 2003 Dave Gaubatz became the first U.S. civilian federal agent deployed to Nasiriyah, Iraq. According to Rep. Sue Myrick, founder of the bipartisan Congressional anti-terror Caucus, Dave Gaubatz "deserves all our gratitude for his heroic service to our country."
Gaubatz's co-author for "Muslim Mafia" is veteran investigative reporter Paul Sperry, one of the nation's top journalistic experts on Islamic infiltration. Sperry's previous book "Infiltration" is used by law enforcement, and he's also one of the best reporters I've known personally in 25 years of journalism.
Here's where it gets really interesting...
Just as ACORN, rather than admitting its absurdly obvious corruption once exposed, played innocent and instead turned around and sued the dynamic duo for videotaping them, CAIR is doing the same thing. While denying everything, disputing the Justice Department designation as terror co-conspirator, faulting the FBI, and condemning members of Congress who, based on "Muslim Mafia"'s revelations, have recently called for three separate federal probes of the organization, CAIR maintains its innocence. And true to form, yesterday it filed in federal district court in Washington, D.C., a lawsuit against Chris Gaubatz and his father, "Muslim Mafia" co-author P. David Gaubatz.
At issue is the 12,000 pages of incriminating internal documents Chris Gaubatz collected during the 6-month internship. CAIR says he stole them. But as WND founder and CEO Joseph Farah has previously explained in a letter to Congress, the CAIR material was legally obtained by Chris Gaubatz, who had been asked by CAIR officials "to shred documents he believed might be criminal evidence ... and involve matters of national security."
"On advice from counsel, he collected those documents and preserved them. None of the documents were 'stolen,'" Farah said. "They were, in fact, handed to him by CAIR employees for destruction. All of the documents are available for review by appropriate law-enforcement authorities and, in fact, some have already been provided to them."
Farah concluded by saying Gaubatz's "patriotic activities within CAIR, an unindicted terrorist co-conspirator, were done on advice of counsel at every step, and were in accordance with District of Columbia and Virginia state law."
Now, WorldNetDaily is stepping up to the plate and coming to the defense of its author, Dave Gaubatz, and his investigator son, and will aggressively fight this lawsuit. "

Support Grows for Teen Girl Who Fled Islam
This is a great article with updates on Rifqa Bary, the teen who fled from Ohio to Florida to get away from her father who was allegedly threatening her life for her conversion to Christianity. A rally is planned on November 16th at the court house where another hearing will be held in this case. In light of the recent honor killing that just occured in Texas it is high time we got serious about the dangers of Sharia law. This is not a benign legal system. We cannot and must not ever allow it to get a foothold in this country! Wake up America! CAIR and its supporters are trying to institute Sharia law right here in the United States and it is being done in the name of diversity and multiculturalism under the auspices of the ACLU and our very own government!! Stand up to CAIR and the ACLU! Stand up against Sharia law!

Rep Myrick Responds to CAIR
This is part of an email from the organization Act For America. Please read it carefully so you will learn the truth about CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations). This is not a benign organization, as much as they would like you to think it is. Rep Myrick's Op-Ed is very profound and quite an eye-opener!
Visit our News page
Rep. Myrick Responds to CAIR Attacks CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) and its allies in the media are waging an all-out offensive against Rep. Sue Myrick and the other courageous Members of Congress who last week called for a federal investigation of CAIR. CAIR has engaged in its typical disinformation efforts to change the subject and attempt to discredit the messengers. The American people need to hear the facts about this. That’s why today we are forwarding you an op-ed written by Rep. Myrick (see below). Please read it carefully and then forward it to everyone you know, especially people who have blogs and who submit content to blogs and websites. This is also the time to use your social networking sites … Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Linked-In, etc. to get the word out. It is critical that the FACTS about this issue squash the LIES. If not, then the lies are what become reality. Remember, YOU ARE THE POWER BEHIND THIS ORGANIZATION. This is an example of how you can demonstrate that power and make a difference. Thank you for taking action TODAY!
Rep. Sue Myrick op-ed: Last week, I held a press conference on Capitol Hill attended by three of my colleagues in the House of Representatives to call for a federal investigation (s) into a non-profit group called the Council on American Islamic Relations (C.A.I.R.) Here are the facts: 1. CAIR has documented ties to the terrorist organization HAMAS. This is stated fact by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). In an April 28, 2009 letter to US Senator Jon Kyl, the FBI wrote the following: “As you know, CAIR was named as an unindicted co-conspirator of the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development in the United States v. Holy Land Foundation et al. (Cr. No. 3:04-240-P (N.D.TX.). During that trial, evidence was introduced that demonstrated a relationship among CAIR, individual CAIR founders (including its current President Emeritus and its Executive Director) and the Palestinian Committee. Evidence was also introduced that demonstrated a relationship between the Palestinian Committee and HAMAS, which was designated a terrorist organization in 1995. In light of that evidence, the FBI suspended all formal contacts between CAIR and the FBI.” In case you are not familiar with the Holy Land trial referenced above, it was a Dallas, Texas trial that ended with guilty verdicts on 108 counts of funneling money ($12 million) to HAMAS. 2. The purpose of our press conference was to make public an internal CAIR memo that documented CAIR's stated goal of placing CAIR interns in the offices of members of Congress, especially the members who serve on the Homeland Security, Judiciary and Intelligence Committees. Let me be clear here, CAIR, a group whom the FBI says is affiliated with the terrorist group HAMAS, is trying to place their interns in the offices of those members who serve on the three committees that handle national security related issues. National Security is the first responsibility of the federal government. 3. Following our press conference, CAIR, immediately labeled we four members as bigots and started their public relations campaign to discredit us by claiming that we were against Muslims working on Capitol Hill. We never said that. At no time during our press conference did we even insinuate that we were investigating Muslims being interns on Capitol Hill. Go to http://www.youtube.com/suemyricknc09 and watch the press conference yourself. Our focus was and is on CAIR and CAIR alone, not Muslims. Likewise CAIR tried to make this a Republican vs. Democrat thing, because the four members at the press conference happened to be Republican. How then does CAIR explain Democrat Senator Charles Schumer’s call earlier this year for a government-wide ban on CAIR in the federal government due to their ties to HAMAS? Democrat Senator Barbara Boxer has likewise made public her opinions of CAIR and any Google search will find her remarks. 4. CAIR is spending time, money and energy to position themselves as the spokespeople for the moderate Muslim community. Problem is CAIR is not a moderate Muslim organization. It is a radical front group for HAMAS. So who is CAIR competing with for this designation? The real moderate Muslim groups/individuals in America. Groups and individuals like the following who are committed to countering Islamist extremism: Dr. Hedieh Mirahmadi – President World Organization for Resource Development and Education (WORDE) Zeyno Baran – Director for the Center for Eurasian Policy at the Hudson Institute Farid Ghadry – President of the Reform Party of Syria Manda Zand Ervin – Founder and director of the Alliance of Iranian Women Omran Salman – Arab Reformists Project, 'Aafaq (Arabic for “horizons”). Dr. Zuhdi Jasser – American Islamic Forum for Democracy Karim Bromund – Director of Inter-Religious Affairs for the Islamic Supreme Council of America I SUPPORT the Muslim individuals and groups mentioned above. These groups renounce terrorists and their radical ideology. They are trying their hardest to be heard and recognized in America, but are being overshadowed and out-funded by CAIR. Today, when something happens that impacts the Muslim community, the media calls CAIR (an unindicted co-conspirator to terrorism and a HAMAS front group) for comment on behalf of American Muslims. What an insult the media is performing on the Muslim community. Instead they should be calling Muslim groups/individuals like those named above. This is part of the reason we are focusing our attention on CAIR and exposing them for who they are. For one they pose a threat to our national security, and two, they deny the ability of legitimate Muslim groups to gain credibility. 5. In July of this year I held a summit on Capitol Hill where I introduced the leaders of eight moderate Muslim organizations to the heads of several US Agencies, Members of Congress and congressional staff. For example, they met with representatives from the State Department, USAID, Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Defense. How can I be against Muslims working on Capitol Hill and hold such an event? Go to http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/id.3881/pub_detail.asp and read for yourself about this summit. See through the lies and realize what is really going on here. We are trying to expose a HAMAS Front Group (CAIR) for who they are, and they are crying we are anti-Muslim hoping that media outlets will ignore the terrorist claim and instead pick it up as a race/religion story. When those claims don’t work, they claim it’s a Republican political thing. Americans, on this subject we need to stop the Republican vs. Democrat, Conservative vs. Liberal, Christian vs. Muslim division and unite on one simple point…. CAIR is a front group for HAMAS. It was named as an un-indicted co-conspirator in a terrorism case that lead to 108 convictions of funneling $12 million to HAMAS. Because of the evidence produced in that case, the FBI severed all ties with them. This same CAIR, by their own admission, is trying to place people inside the offices of members of Congress who deal with national security issues (judiciary, homeland security and intelligence committees). I serve on one of those committees, Intelligence, am the co-chairwoman of the House Anti-Terrorism Caucus, and have spent the better part of the last four years working every day on terrorism related issues. If we Americans fail to set aside our political, religious and ideological differences and unite when we encounter the enemy in such stark and plain terms, then God help us.

In an April 28, 2009 letter to US Senator Jon Kyl, the FBI wrote the following: “As you know, CAIR was named as an unindicted co-conspirator of the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development in the United States v. Holy Land Foundation et al. (Cr. No. 3:04-240-P (N.D.TX.). During that trial, evidence was introduced that demonstrated a relationship among CAIR, individual CAIR founders (including its current President Emeritus and its Executive Director) and the Palestinian Committee. Evidence was also introduced that demonstrated a relationship between the Palestinian Committee and HAMAS, which was designated a terrorist organization in 1995. In light of that evidence, the FBI suspended all formal contacts between CAIR and the FBI.” In case you are not familiar with the Holy Land trial referenced above, it was a Dallas, Texas trial that ended with guilty verdicts on 108 counts of funneling money ($12 million) to HAMAS. 2. The purpose of our press conference was to make public an internal CAIR memo that documented CAIR's stated goal of placing CAIR interns in the offices of members of Congress, especially the members who serve on the Homeland Security, Judiciary and Intelligence Committees. Let me be clear here, CAIR, a group whom the FBI says is affiliated with the terrorist group HAMAS, is trying to place their interns in the offices of those members who serve on the three committees that handle national security related issues. National Security is the first responsibility of the federal government. 3. Following our press conference, CAIR, immediately labeled we four members as bigots and started their public relations campaign to discredit us by claiming that we were against Muslims working on Capitol Hill. We never said that. At no time during our press conference did we even insinuate that we were investigating Muslims being interns on Capitol Hill. Go to http://www.youtube.com/suemyricknc09 and watch the press conference yourself. Our focus was and is on CAIR and CAIR alone, not Muslims. Likewise CAIR tried to make this a Republican vs. Democrat thing, because the four members at the press conference happened to be Republican. How then does CAIR explain Democrat Senator Charles Schumer’s call earlier this year for a government-wide ban on CAIR in the federal government due to their ties to HAMAS? Democrat Senator Barbara Boxer has likewise made public her opinions of CAIR and any Google search will find her remarks. 4. CAIR is spending time, money and energy to position themselves as the spokespeople for the moderate Muslim community. Problem is CAIR is not a moderate Muslim organization. It is a radical front group for HAMAS. So who is CAIR competing with for this designation? The real moderate Muslim groups/individuals in America. Groups and individuals like the following who are committed to countering Islamist extremism: Dr. Hedieh Mirahmadi – President World Organization for Resource Development and Education (WORDE) Zeyno Baran – Director for the Center for Eurasian Policy at the Hudson Institute Farid Ghadry – President of the Reform Party of Syria Manda Zand Ervin – Founder and director of the Alliance of Iranian Women Omran Salman – Arab Reformists Project, 'Aafaq (Arabic for “horizons”). Dr. Zuhdi Jasser – American Islamic Forum for Democracy Karim Bromund – Director of Inter-Religious Affairs for the Islamic Supreme Council of America I SUPPORT the Muslim individuals and groups mentioned above. These groups renounce terrorists and their radical ideology. They are trying their hardest to be heard and recognized in America, but are being overshadowed and out-funded by CAIR. Today, when something happens that impacts the Muslim community, the media calls CAIR (an unindicted co-conspirator to terrorism and a HAMAS front group) for comment on behalf of American Muslims. What an insult the media is performing on the Muslim community. Instead they should be calling Muslim groups/individuals like those named above. This is part of the reason we are focusing our attention on CAIR and exposing them for who they are. For one they pose a threat to our national security, and two, they deny the ability of legitimate Muslim groups to gain credibility. 5. In July of this year I held a summit on Capitol Hill where I introduced the leaders of eight moderate Muslim organizations to the heads of several US Agencies, Members of Congress and congressional staff. For example, they met with representatives from the State Department, USAID, Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Defense. How can I be against Muslims working on Capitol Hill and hold such an event? Go to http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/id.3881/pub_detail.asp and read for yourself about this summit. See through the lies and realize what is really going on here. We are trying to expose a HAMAS Front Group (CAIR) for who they are, and they are crying we are anti-Muslim hoping that media outlets will ignore the terrorist claim and instead pick it up as a race/religion story. When those claims don’t work, they claim it’s a Republican political thing. Americans, on this subject we need to stop the Republican vs. Democrat, Conservative vs. Liberal, Christian vs. Muslim division and unite on one simple point…. CAIR is a front group for HAMAS. It was named as an un-indicted co-conspirator in a terrorism case that lead to 108 convictions of funneling $12 million to HAMAS. Because of the evidence produced in that case, the FBI severed all ties with them. This same CAIR, by their own admission, is trying to place people inside the offices of members of Congress who deal with national security issues (judiciary, homeland security and intelligence committees). I serve on one of those committees, Intelligence, am the co-chairwoman of the House Anti-Terrorism Caucus, and have spent the better part of the last four years working every day on terrorism related issues. If we Americans fail to set aside our political, religious and ideological differences and unite when we encounter the enemy in such stark and plain terms, then God help us.
