    Nation of Islam's Visual Map


  • Afrocentric organization founded in 1930 by Wallace Dodd Fard
  • Early leader Elijah Muhammad taught that the white race was created 6,000 years ago by a renegade black scientist named Yakub
  • In the 1950s, Malcolm X brought the organization to prominence
  • In the mid-1960s, Louis Farrakhan assumed control of the organization
  • Farrakhan has spoken out against “white devils” and Jewish “bloodsuckers”



In the most recent issue of the Nation of Islam’s publication The Final Call, Minister Louis Farrakhan condemned the United States for seeking “to change Islam, to make Islam suitable and non-threatening to Western hegemony over the entire world.”  “[T]he war is not just against brutal dictators,” he said. “The war, at the root, is against Islam. The government will not admit to that, but I see signs. In Iraq, when the Shiites asked for a popular election, knowing that they are 60 percent of the population of Iraq, they said they wanted an Islamic government. Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld said, ‘We will not have any of that.’ If they want an Islamic government that’s not democratic, America will not tolerate that. . . . But I say to you that there’s no way that I, as a Muslim, could countenance my children or grandchildren fighting a war against fellow believers in any part of the world.”  Farrakhan further impugned the U.S. government for supporting “the State of Israel on Palestinian lands.” Such denunciations of America and Israel have typified the rhetoric emanating from the Nation of Islam for decades.

T
he Nation of Islam (NOI) was founded in Detroit in 1930 by Wallace Dodd Fard, an itinerant salesman. Various identities have been discovered for Fard: the FBI traced him to Portland under the name Wallie D. Ford; Malcolm X and Elijah Muhammad referred to him as Wallace D. Fard, of Mecca. His common-law wife claimed his real name was Fred or Wallace Dodd of New Zealand; different Muslim writers have given an Arab version of his name, Wali Farad; and one theory claims that he was a renegade rabbi from New York named Arnold Josiah Ford.

Fard’s movement, building on the honorably conceived if woefully executed Afrocentricism of Marcus Garvey and the visionary lunacy of Timothy Drew’s Moorish Temple of Science, was based on traditional Islamic teachings augmented by, and interlaced with, obscure mathematical, Gnostic, and heretical accretions, including an identification of all blacks as first, Asiatic, and second, God.  This message resonated among American blacks who had migrated north, seeking to escape racial oppression and rural poverty; the Depression had eradicated the nascent prosperity that the industrial jobs of northern cities had initially afforded.

O
ne of Fard’s earliest converts was Elijah Poole, a grade-school dropout and alcoholic Georgian who had moved to Detroit in 1923. By 1931, Poole had become known as Elijah Muhammad, and upon Fard’s disappearance in 1934, he became head of the NOI. Various theories have been set forth about Fard’s disappearance. He had left Michigan in 1933 and settled in Chicago. According to some, he died after being beaten while in the custody of Chicago police, but later newspaper accounts report that he returned to New Zealand after first visiting an ex-wife in Portland.

Elijah Muhammad moved to Washington, D.C. in 1935 and promptly began proselytizing for the NOI in different cities throughout the U.S.  He claimed that Fard was actually Allah, the reincarnation of Jesus, the prophet the world had been awaiting for the last 2,000 years, and the Son of Man. Muhammad was arrested in 1942 for refusing to register for the military draft; he urged all Muslims to resist fighting against the Fascist threat, and openly favored the Japanese as Asiatic heroes resisting white oppression.

In 1965, Muhammad published a 300-page book titled Message to the Blackman in America, in which he explained that Allah had originally created the black race before all others, followed sequentially by the brown, red, and yellow races. The white race, said Muhammad, was created some 6,000 years ago, not by Allah but by a renegade black scientist named Yakub. According to Muhammad, the process by which Yakub created whites involved extracting the “brown germ” from the “black germ” and in turn, grafting whites. In Muhammad’s view, “the whole Caucasian race is a race of devils . . . the evil and murderous race.”

Muhammad retained effective control over the NOI for 44 years, but by far the most visible spokesman of the movement was Malcolm X. Convicted of robbery in 1946, he converted to the NOI in 1947 and, upon his parole in 1952, began working for Muhammad as an organizer.  Malcolm was responsible for a considerable increase in NOI membership. In 1964 Malcolm made a hajj to Mecca, which led him to reject his formerly held notion that all whites were evil. He embraced a species of revolutionary Marxism which was not overtly racist, and this attitude shift put him at odds with Muhammad. Also in 1964, Malcolm publicly revealed that Muhammad had impregnated several of his teenage secretaries, in blatant violation of Muhammad’s own admonitions against sex outside of marriage (two of Muhammad’s secretaries filed paternity suits against him).  

When Malcolm made these revelations, an anathema was pronounced on him and he was suspended from his post as the leader of the Harlem mosque. He was replaced by Louis Farrakhan, who was outraged at what he perceived as Malcolm’s traitorous disloyalty. Ten weeks before Malcolm was assassinated, Farrakhan denounced him in the NOI newspaper Muhammad Speaks. “Only those who wish to be led to hell, or to their doom, will follow Malcolm,” Farrakhan wrote. “The die is set, and Malcolm shall not escape, especially after such evil, foolish talk about his benefactor; such a man is worthy of death.” On February 21, 1965, Malcolm X was killed in Harlem’s Audubon Ballroom by three gunmen with ties to the NOI. 

As recently as 1993, Farrakhan tried to justify Malcolm X’s assassination when he said in a speech, “Was Malcolm your traitor or ours? And if we dealt with [Malcolm] like a nation deals with a traitor, what the hell business is it of yours? A nation has to be able to deal with traitors and cut-throats and turncoats.” In May 1995, however, Farrakhan spoke for the first time in repentant tones about the slaying, and he admitted to having “helped create the atmosphere” that led to it. “I may have been complicit in words that I spoke leading up to 21 February,” he said. “I acknowledge that and regret that any word that I have said caused the loss of life of a human being.” Immediately thereafter, however, he named the U.S.government as the real villain that had fomented zeal and bitterness inside the NOI’s ranks. 

Malcolm X was by no means the only person toward whom Farrakhan has openly aimed menacing words. In 1984, for example, Farrakhan publicly threatened Milton Coleman, a black Washington Post reporter, with death. He portrayed Coleman as a traitor for having revealed that Jesse Jackson, in a conversation with campaign aides, had referred to Jews as “Hymies” and to New York City as “Hymietown.” “One day soon we will punish you with death,” Farrakhan said to Coleman.

Upon Elijah Muhammad’s death in 1975, his son Wallace Deen Muhammad took over the movement and attempted to integrate it with mainstream Islam.  This attempt eventually led to a schism within the NOI; at present three organizations, one in Baltimore, one in Atlanta, and one in Detroit, claim to be the authentic NOI, but by far the most recognized group is that headed by Farrakhan, headquartered at the Mosque Maryam in Chicago.  Farrakhan initially rejected the integrationism favored by Wallace Deen Muhammad and his successors, although unlike Elijah Muhammad, Farrakhan has not called for the creation of a separate black state, and in 2000 he did meet with Wallace Deen Muhammad about a possible rapprochement of the NOI with mainstream Islam. 

Farrakhan has a long, well documented history of venom-laced references to the “white devils” and Jewish “bloodsuckers” who purportedly decimate America’s black community from coast to coast. He has referred to Judaism as a “gutter religion,” and to Adolf Hitler as “a great man” – though he later claimed that he had meant only that Hitler was “wickedly great.”

At a November 2003 speech in Chicago, Farrakhan said, “This Koran says that the Jews have altered the word of God out of its place. They did not want the masters of the people to know what Jesus really said, what Moses really said, because then you wouldn't have a yardstick [by which] to measure their deviations.” A month earlier, he told Jews, “I don’t like the way you leech on us. See, a leech is somebody that sucks your blood, takes from you and don’t (sic) give you a damn thing.”

Notwithstanding Farrakhan’s ugly rhetoric, in the early 1990s the NAACP, under the leadership of then-executive director Benjamin Chavis, entered into a “sacred covenant” with the Nation of Islam; Chavis, who would later join the NOI and change his surname to Muhammad, pledged never to “forsake Mr. Farrakhan as my brother.” In September 1993, spokesmen for the Congressional Black Caucus likewise announced, in front of a large audience, that they too had joined in a “sacred covenant” with Farrakhan and the NOI.

Farrakhan despises the
United States and has consistently condemned virtually its every foreign and domestic policy. He opposes U.S. aid to Israel; opposes the war in Iraq; opposes the Patriot Act; has been critical of President Bush’s overall response to 9/11; is critical of plans to employ NATO forces as peacekeepers in Iraq; and in one 2004 press release, urged young men to resist any proposed military draft.  He insists, however, that his anti-white, anti-American positions are overstated by a hostile, Jewish-dominated press.

Well, DUH. . . .

But the Islamikazi Pederast Death Cult declared war on us first, way back in 1973.

Question is, are we going to fight this war to the end ???

from the Message to the Blackman in America link ..

It is said that blue eyes are ugly while black eyes are beautiful.

Christianity, we are told, was organized in order to make slaves out of all blacks. Christianity's purpose "was to deceive other races, namely, the black, brown, yellow and red" in order "to make an easy prey for the white race." Playing into the hands of whites, black Christian preachers prevent blacks from learning Nation of Islam's teachings.

Although most denigrations are pointed at white Christians, white Jews are included at times. Elijah Muhammad gives us his interpretation of Biblical history as follows: "Jesus . . . gave up His work of trying to convert the Jews or white race to the religion of Islam."

Nation of Islam changes the names of new members by replacing with "X's" their last names having European origins. For example, Malcolm Little became Malcolm X. Eventually members get new last names. For example, Louis Eugene Walcott first changed to Louis X and then became Louis Farrakhan. Also, Elijah Poole became Elijah Muhammad. In Message to the Blackman in America, a name of European origin is called an "illegal" name while a name of Islamic origin is called "a legal and Holy name of God." (The words Allah and God are used interchangeably in the book.) Blacks who keep their names that descended from "slave-masters" will not see the "hereafter."

Strong demands for racial separation are issued. Elijah Muhammad commands that God calls for racial separation, and that "IT IS FAR MORE IMPORTANT TO TEACH SEPARATION OF THE BLACKS AND WHITES IN AMERICA THAN PRAYER." Integration and intermarriage between blacks and whites are an attempt by whites to confuse blacks, keep them enslaved, and prevent them from learning Nation of Islam's teachings. Demands are made to whites for a separate territory.

Blacks who assimilate into mainstream culture are called "disgraceful Uncle Toms" and "Stool Pigeons." Such blacks seek to please the "slave-masters' children" and they prevent blacks from learning Nation of Islam's teachings.

...and just think how many are in prison putting their plans together as we type here

He's right.

Changing Islam or reforming it, to make it "acceptable" and nonviolent is considered "bidah" to "true believers."

As if Islam ONLY hates the West. They've killed more of their own over the centuries than any of us, and more of their own than any of us have killed. Gotta give 'em credit - Islam will hate ANYbody.

How come we never hear about the Nation of Islam in FBI reports about existing terror cells on American soil?

Logically in a war against Islamic terrorists the NOI should be the first place to come under surveillance.

Is the NOI so well connected that the FBI keeps its distance?

Prophet of Doom - Islam’s Terrorist Dogma, In Muhammad’s Own Words


Islam is a caustic blend of regurgitated paganism and twisted Bible stories.
Muhammad, its lone prophet, conceived his religion solely to satiate his lust for power, sex, and money.
He was a terrorist.

And if you think these conclusions are shocking, wait until you see the evidence at www.prophetofdoom.net.

"Why I left Islam", by Dr. Ali Sina


"...the real Islam is not what its philosophers and mystics have inferred but what is in the Quran and that is the Islam of the fundamentalist and the terrorist. The real Islam is the Islam that abuses women, that allows men to beat their wives, that imposes penalty tax on the religious minorities, that wants to dominate the world by subduing all the non-Muslims, that calls for Jihad and killing the non-believers until Islam becomes the only dominant religion of the World*."

"The enemy is Islam and that is the target of my attacks. I do that, despite knowing that I have become the magnet of the hatred of fanatical Muslims and my own life could be in danger.

Yet I know that by eradicating Islam we can save the world from the dangers of a catastrophe that otherwise is looming over our heads and could cause more disaster than the 1st and 2nd World Wars combined."


Islamic terror based on Qu’ran: ex-CIA official

"A former top official of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency paints a menacing picture of the relationship between Islam and terrorism.

"Islamic terrorism is based on Islam as revealed through the Qu’ran," keynote speaker Bruce Tefft claimed in a panel discussion at the University of Toronto on jihad and global terrorism.

And, he added, "There is no difference between Islam and Islamic fundamentalism, which is a totalitarian construct..."

According to Tefft, the Qu’ran enjoins Muslims to believe that the whole world should be governed by the principles of Islam*, an expansionist religion that has historically grown through conquest..."



*‘Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Qur'an should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth’

-- Omar Ahmed, Chairman of the Board of CAIR (Council of American Islamic Relations), San Ramon Valley Herald, July 1998

What is not islam:

Nation of Islam
The followers of the Nation Of Islam believe in (all quotes taken from their homepage or their publications):

...one God (Allah) and that Allah (God) appeared in the Person of Master W.Fard Muhammad, July, 1930; the long awaited 'Messiah' of the Christians and the 'Mahdi' of the Muslims...
However, the Qur`an states in chapter 4, verse 36, "Serve Allah, and join not Any partners with Him; ... ". And according to a hadith narrated by Masruq, in Sahih Bukhari, 'Aisha said, "If anyone tells you that Muhammad has seen his Lord, he is a liar, for Allah says (in 6:103), 'No vision can grasp Him.'...".

The followers of the Nation Of Islam further believe "in the resurrection of the dead--not in physical resurrection--but in mental resurrection. We also believe that the so-called Negroes are most in need of mental resurrection; therefore, they will be resurrected first." But the Qur`an states in chapter 20, verse 55, "From the earth did We Create you, and into it Shall We return you, and from it shall We bring you out once again." Even more pointedly, the Qur'an also states in 64:7,

The Unbelievers think that they will not be raised up (for Judgement). Say: "Yea, by my Lord, Ye shall surely be Raised up: then shall ye Be told (the truth) of All that ye did. And that is easy for Allah."
Besides the above two differences, the followers of the Nation of Islam also believe in other things contrary to Islam as defined in the Qur'an and Sunnah, such as:

[We, the Black Muslims, believe] "in the truth of the Bible, but we believe that it has been tampered with and must be reinterpreted so that mankind will not be snared by the falsehoods that have been added to it".
The problem with this belief: The true Prophet of Islam ordered Muslims to neither accept the Bible nor reject it - certainly there was no mention of reinterpretation.

"That we who declare ourselves to be righteous Muslims, should not participate in wars which take the lives of humans. We do not believe this nation should force us to take part in such wars, for we have nothing to gain from it unless America agrees to give us the necessary territory wherein we may have something to fight for".
The problem with this belief: The Qur'an and Sunnah are crystal clear on the necessity of going to war when the situation demands it.

Do you think this man has changed his mind about America?

================================================

* * * * *

God will destroy America by the hands of the Muslims....God will not give Japan or Europe the honor of bringing down the United States; this is an honor God will bestow upon Muslims." – Nation of Islam Leader Louis Farrakhan

~ ~ ~
================================================

SPEWING HATE IN SAVIOUR'S DAY SPEECH FOLLOWING WORLD TOUR, LOUIS FARRAKHAN CONDEMNS AMERICA AND THE JEWS

New York, NY, March 5, 1996...Calling Jews "wicked deceivers of the American people" and the American Government "rotten to the core," Minister Louis Farrakhan spewed hatred in a speech before thousands of supporters following his recent trip to some of the world's bloodiest, most anti-democratic nations. Speaking at the Nation of Islam's (NOI) Saviour's Day gathering in Chicago on February 25th, he praised Muammar Qaddafi as his "friend" and "brother," and described how Iraqis "love their man," Saddam Hussein. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) said the recent extremist rhetoric is consistent with the racial and religious animus that characterized Minister Farrakhan and his Nation of Islam before the more moderate appeal of his Million Man March. The League released excerpts from the speech, together with Travels With Tyrants: Minister Louis Farrakhan's Anti-American World Tour, a report detailing the 27-day trip, where he visited Libya, Iraq and Iran, among other countries.

"On his trip, Louis Farrakhan -- who was recently saluted by eminent civil rights and political figures at the March in our nation's capital -- publicly embraced foreign countries the United States considers sponsors of terrorism," said Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director. "Both his Saviour's Day speech and our report reconfirm that the Nation of Islam is an extremist organization with a racist ideology and an apocalyptic vision of America's future, and that Mr. Farrakhan is an unrepentant bigot."

On Tour, ADL Reports an 'Itinerary of Hate' Minister Farrakhan announced in January 1996 he was taking the message of the Million Man March to African and Middle Eastern nations. Travels With Tyrants, prepared by the agency's Civil Rights Division, documents an itinerary of hate, including the following:

* Nigeria -- By reportedly expressing support for the military ruler, Sani Abacha, Minister Farrakhan undermined the efforts of many Black community leaders who have harshly criticized the military junta. He also rebuked criticism of Mr. Abacha's execution of Nigerian writer and activist Ken Saro-Wiwa.

* Libya -- According to reports from Libya's news agency, JANA, Mr. Farrakhan and Mr. Qaddafi agreed to work together to mobilize "oppressed Blacks, Arabs, Muslims and Red Indians" in the United States to influence the outcome of the 1996 elections and the shaping of U.S. foreign policy. Mr. Qaddafi reportedly agreed to bankroll a $1 billion Muslim lobby in America to help bring these plans to fruition. "And I'm gonna accept it," Mr. Farrakhan said.

* Sudan -- The NOI leader met with Sudanese President Omar Hassan al-Bashir and Hassan al-Turabi, the leader of Sudan's ruling party. Under Mr. Turabi's influence, the Sudan has become a launching pad for Islamic extremist terrorism.

* Iran --An Iranian newspaper quoted Minister Farrakhan as saying, "God will destroy America by the hands of the Muslims....God will not give Japan or Europe the honor of bringing down the United States; this is an honor God will bestow upon Muslims." The United States State Department described Mr. Farrakhan's trip to Iran, and his earlier trip to Libya, as "shameful" and "cavorting with dictators."

* Iraq -- Mr. Farrakhan met with Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein and, referring to the U.N. sanctions imposed following the 1991 Gulf War, said at a news conference, "We visited the children's hospital...and I must say if I were made of stone, seeing what I saw today would bring tears from my eyes. Sanctions is a crime against humanity." He added, "Visiting the hospital that we visited today would be, or could be, compared to visiting one of the [Nazi] death camps."

At Home, A Defiant Speech

The following quotations are excerpted from Louis Farrakhan's Saviour's Day speech:

On America

America is a modern Rome. America is a modern Egypt. America is a modern Babylon. America is a modern Sodom and Gomorrah. There is no wicked nation in the past that approaches the evil that is practiced in America on a daily basis. I am not saying that there are not good Americans, white and brown and black and yellow and red. But you are like sheep. Your government is rotten to the core. Now bring me before the government. You are deceiving the American people. And you, press, are an agent of the deception.

Oddly, many Middle Eastern Muslims consider the NOI to be a fake version of Islam because of its apathy towards the Arabic language and its Christian style of preaching.

"This is an amazing book. Brilliantly argued and meticulously documented, this book contains a devastating expose of the murderous deceit behind contemporary apologists for militant Islam--in the media, political arena, academia and "mainstream" radical Islamic groups. Read this book to learn why Islamic extremism is dangerously entrenched within the institutional Islamic leadership in Saudi Arabia and the United States."

-- Steven Emerson, author of American Jihad: The Terrorists Living Among Us and Director of the Investigative Project

Congressman refuses to probe illegal alien
terrorist cell in his own district

January 28, 2005 - Despite widespread news reports linking Moroccan Muslims to worldwide terrorism, Florida Congressman Ric Keller (R-8-FL) has declined to call for a formal FBI or Government Accounting Office (GAO) investigation of Orlando Homeland Security official Mary Schneider's concrete evidence of green card bribery of immigration officials by illegal Moroccan Muslims linked to a terrorist cell in Keller's central Florida congressional district--the hub of Sunshine State tourism and airline traffic.

Our interview with the Orlando immigration adjudication officer revealed that Keller, who is a member of the House Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism and Homeland Security told Mary Schneider "your problem is not a matter within the purview of a federal agency." Full Story

"It is a certain fact that not all Muslims are terrorists, but it is equally certain,and exceptionally painful, that almost all terrorists are Muslims..."

Holy War on the Home Front

Holy War on the Home Front:
The Secret Islamic Terror Network in the United States

(An excerpt) FROM THE PUBLISHER

"Nearly three years after 9/11, the war on terror is far from over. In fact, a leading terrorism expert argues that despite the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the efforts of the Department of Homeland Security, we're not really any safer at all.

Harvey Kushner, a respected adviser to the FBI, the FAA, the INS, and other government agencies, offers frightening new evidence of a unified Islamic terrorist network that is operating inside the United States and planning new opportunities to strike.

Kushner identifies and assesses the violent plans of these Islamic organizations and individuals who take advantage of our reluctance to engage in ethnic profiling. He supports his claims with never-before-seen documents from top-level government sources, exposing a secret network of Arab intelligence agencies, terrorists, university professors, corrupt imams and other religious leaders, and violent criminals.

Some members of this network are recent immigrants; others have been American citizens for years. Some are laundering money from abroad through seemingly innocuous charities and mosques. Some have even infiltrated our military as Arabic translators and Muslim chaplains..."

The influential Washington-based Center for Security Police recently unveiled a groundbreaking report entitled, "Terrorism Investments of the 50 States."   This report analyzes the investment portfolios of America's leading public pension funds.  The key finding of the report is that America's 87 largest and most influential pension systems invest some $200 billion in companies that provide revenues, advanced technology, equipment and moral cover to governments that enable terrorism.  (This detailed report and related materials can be obtained at www.DivestTerror.org.)

To be sure, there is nothing illegal about investing in any of the roughly 400 companies that partner with our enemies' friends.  Nor is it illegal for such companies to do business with terrorist-sponsoring regimes.  Whether the law prohibits such activities or not, however, we believe most Americans will agree with us that they are wrong â?" wrong morally, wrong strategically and wrong financially. 

Consequently, DivestTerror.org offers a "how-to" manual showing ways in which investors, taxpayers and other citizens can bring pressure to bear to convert this $200 billion investment into leverage that can be used to help defeat terrorism.  Reduced to its essence, the idea is this: By divesting the stock of these companies, public pension systems, university endowments and even individual investors can send a powerful message to the companies that provide life-support to many of the planet's most dangerous regimes. You can choose to continue to partner with rogue state regimes that aid and abet terrorism.  Or you can do business with American investors and capital markets.  But you can no longer do both. 

As the DivestTerror.org website makes clear, divestment campaigns have already proven to be highly effective instruments.  In fact, over the last twenty years, institutional and private investors have repeatedly used their financial leverage to initiate social change.  For instance, these efforts have been used to bring pressure on stocks of companies involved in tobacco, alcohol, gambling, guns and environmentally insensitive behavior.  Arguably, the best-known example to date was the shareholder activism that used divestment to force the apartheid government of South Africa to abandon its heinous apartheid policy.  Subsequently, that government was forced to surrender power. 

By applying this model to companies doing business in terrorist-sponsoring states, we hope to achieve a success no less momentous than that accomplished in South Africa.  All it will take is for Americans like you to feel empowered to play a role in the war on terror, to make known your views against investment in terrorist-sponsoring states and to use tools like those provided by DivestTerror.org to target and maximize the effectiveness of your activism.  Please visit this informative and useful site and to join in the campaign it is now waging to defeat those who threaten not only our lives, but those of our children and grandchildren, as well.

Minister Louis Farrakhan condemned the United States for seeking “to change Islam, to make Islam suitable and non-threatening to Western hegemony over the entire world.

How come we never hear about the Nation of Islam in FBI reports about existing terror cells on American soil?

This border issue is unreal.

Fox News did a documentary interviewing a Border Patrol man and his wife (last year), who live in a trailer right on this side of the fence.  They are BEGGING for our government to send help down to them, ANY kind of help.  Even if is our  National Guards.

Night after night, the Border patrol and his wife wearing night goggles take pictures for proof.  Thousands are coming across in hordes.  And that IS night after night. Fox News even showed the video tapes that the Border and his wife have been  taking of these people jumping the fence and running.

The Fox Newsman (I forget his name.  He has the gray hair, is tall, thin with a long thin face), spent the night with this couple, also using night goggles to watch for himself.

The next morning, they walked about the yard.  She said that they are NOT all Mexican's.  That they have found the books of the Koran and prayer rugs dropped in haste as the people jumped the fence and ran on into our Country.

She showed the rugs and the books to the Fox Newsman.  It was horrifying. 

What with all the Mosque's in our Country, what better shelter for the terrorists to find shelter?  They are here, people.  Scattered all over the United States.

Here is an updated map of where all the Mosque's are.  Look and weep for our Country.

Feds Worry Over Al-Qaeda Use of Mexican Border

 

"New intelligence information strongly suggests that Al Qaeda has considered infiltrating the United States through the Mexican border, top government officials told Congress on Wednesday," according to the AP. "In his written testimony, Admiral Loy cited recent information from investigations and detentions as the basis for his concern about the Mexican border. He added, "Several Al Qaeda leaders believe operatives can pay their way into the country through Mexico and also believe illegal entry is more advantageous than legal entry for operational security reasons."http://www.steinreport.com/

NOI isn't really Islamic. Most mainstream Muslims consider them a heretical cult.

To put it simply, the NOI is to Islam as the Ku Klux Klan is to Christianity. It's nothing but a racial supremacist organization masquerading as a religious organziation.

I hope you are right. I just got FReep mail asking to be removed from my terror map ping.

I know it might get old once you see it so many times, but I feel like you do: get it out there so everyone will see it and I pray that they do. People are still in doubt that they are living among us. These people need to wake up!

One must wonder what the Wahabists think of NOI's funky brand of islam.

I knew a Pakistani muslim once. He did not think much of them, but he was only one person. I don't know what others thought.

"These people need to wake up!"

I agree. What is old news to some of us is brand new to others.

I realize that some people have telephone ISPs and it's hard to load at 2800 baud, but they can configure so that pictures aren't shown.

This stuff is way too serious to ignore.  And we sure don't get any of this information from the MSM!  Makes me sick.
