Even in Iowa, my home state.

14 names on this list....and I know this list will grow.

This is how the end happens, folks.

Watch and see what happens.

A number of them are probably not newcomers, but native-born black converts. And they’re even crazier - how any black person could be a Muslim, considering that Islam is an Arab superiority cult that has always despised black Africans and regarded them as nothing but slave material, is beyond me. But Islam appears to be all the rage out there in many black neighborhoods.

This is a useful list. It would be good if someone could identify the worst nut-cases among them—and a list of their opponents, in case anyone wants to help them out.

That's because of the "hate whitey" philosophy preached by the Muzzies.

that is how movements such as Marxism, homosexual, feminism, pro-abortion, et al gain power and prestige. They all use the same play book.

As Islamists have learned in Europe, the courts and the ballot box are more potent weapons than car bombs. Lenin said: "The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them."

“This is how the end happens, folks.”

Death by a thousand cuts? Frog in slowly-boiling water?

I’ve seen America’s Future, and I don’t like what I see coming...

Actually, the Black Muslim thing goes back to the sixties and the Countercultural Revolution, interrelated to the Martin Luther King freedom movement.

A lot of blacks were persuaded that Christianity was a “plantation religion” imposed on them by their southern white masters. So they invented the Black Muslim movement and various offshoots.

This was, of course, complete ignorance of history, since it was Catholic Christianity that did away with the slavery Europe inherited from the ancient world, and English Christianity that did away with the slave trade, and New England Christianity that motivated the emancipation movement in the civil war.

During the Age of Exploration, Europeans went out and found slavery in other parts of the world. Some Europeans jumped at what they found as a nice source of profit. But the Pope argued against it and forbade it in South America, and English Protestants finished that job.

It was, in fact, mainly Muslims who were engaged in the slave trade. Islam not only condones slavery, but advocates slavery through the example of Muhammed. And slavery is still practiced in Muslim countries, wherever they can get away with it.

Sheer ignorance, not only on the part of the blacks who founded the Black Muslims, but on the part of white liberals who egged them on and helped them rewrite or ignore history.
