Notice that he's in Detroit, although other of his writings are sourced to Texas.
here's the wisdom of the great man, may he drown in the mucus of a thousand camels:

Why is the essay writer living here in the USA? The writer preaches hatred against the USA. The writer is calling all non-Muslims 'enemies.' How many terrorists are Muslims who hate the 'khuffir' hiding today? Are some Muslims raising their kids to be terrorists? I think that the writer hates the country that allows his family to worship and educate in a free way. Am I confused? The article creeps me out.
I'm afraid that the Muslim is pretty correct about having his religious principles undermined by Godless secular humanism. My fellow Christians are opting for home and private religious schooling for these identical reasons.
However, as usual, the Islamics will destroy other religious education.
As you read the Islamic apologetic remember that the Taliban, (which means "student") was recruited from orphanages and boys schools throughout the Muslim world, including Kosavo as another FR post told us today.
Today there's a column in the NY Times and the beginning of a groundswell of Dem. opinion blaming Republicans for the anthrax attacks because liberals are targets. I won't sit still while the Dems. blame us while ignoring the very public words of their Muslim fellow citizens.
Judeo-Christians are all considered infidels, but many Muslims view the left as particularly corrupt. The world is influenced by American TV, movies, news and is lectured to by Americans pushing abortion rights, etc. The Muslim children are exposed to anti-family, anti-religion PC in public schools....all controlled by the left.
In spite of this, right-wing gun owners and military folks will risk their lives to defend all Americans' freedoms, even Democrats. Some people do take the 10 Commandments seriously. Love thy neighbor isn't simply a catchy slogan. Dems., shame on you for blaming us for the anthrax poisonings or any other evil act in this terrorist campaign. Plenty of people around the world don't share your views. Most of them wouldn't care if you disappeared tomorrow. We are fellow Americans and would fight for you. You better learn now who your true enemies are. We are a great nation. We are at war with those who want us all dead or converted. Whose side are you on?
Me, too. Before 9-11 I would have said that Mid Eastern rhetoric, storytelling styles are historically colorful and detailed. Now, I see a fanatic who's considered a moderate and I don't know whether we can all live together. There are a few hopeful things to remember, Muslims and Christians have lived together peaceably in Turkey for a long time. Most Muslim people want us to get rid of the terrorists in their nations. Most of our nation's united and many families are closer now than they were on 9-10.
I do know that Democrats who blame Republicans for any terrorist act don't know much about their Muslim neighbors, and we need to nip this lie in the bud, fast.
I hope that Jim doesn't pull this thread. This particular Muslim website may be the Democrats' version of DU, I don't know.
What it shows is that one segment of the Muslim population in the USA is very anti-"non-Muslims", and especially anti-Liberal. It makes those individuals blaming Republicans for the anthrax attacks look both uninformed and clueless, and I'm tired of these personal attacks on our honor. They're petty and we haven't the time to explain to them the serious differences between Usama and Oliver North.
I was hoping to focus on the cultural values of this sector of American Muslims to prove to the left that they most certainly are a target of some Muslim rage...and to warn them to stop blaming their mostly very decent Republican countrymen for any current terrorist atacks.
Why would anyone of any political persuasion or nationality choose to put their child in a school that fails to teach? This is common sense and nothing else.
That's seems to be about as peaceful as Islam gets.

If these Dems. choose the Taliban's side in this war they are going to be mightily surprised at their reward from a people who despise them. Right-wing guilty of the anthrax atacks, indeed. Someone needs to be taken to the woodshed....yesterday. They still don't understand what's at stake here.
History will record who tried to unify this nation and world for a noble cause, and who tried to tear us apart.
That's what I was thinking. :)
It is so intolerant that the PC police should be screaming for the Taliban's blood, and yet some on the left are under the illusion that simply reaching out to their Muslim brothers who despise them will result in world peace. Then some of these same deluded folks on the left blame us. It's just wrong.
...Why did the ANTHRAX Attacks first hit the CLINTONS' Enemy American Media, Inc whose Magazines have been accurately reporting the misbehaviors of the CLINTONS, GARY CONDIT and JESSE JACKSON all year long...? Why then did ANTHRAX then hit their Enemy Microsoft...? Why then did ANTHRAX then hit their strongest supporting voices thru TV during Impeachment ...TOM BROKAW, TOM DASCHLE, the New York Times and the Los Angeles Times...giving them each more TV credibility for the years ahead in -Time of War-?
...And now why are these same Evil-doers now attacking American Hero JOHNNY CHUNG to deny him his Probation in Los Angeles and to detain him from earning a living for 6 months for his family...?
...JENNIFER FLOWERS, former Mistress of BILL CLINTON, stated over two years ago on the FoX News Channel that she feared the Revenge of the CLINTONS far more once they were out of the White House ..then when they were in it.
...Seems Time is indeed telling its Tale...?
My opinion may ultimately turn out to be a three pronged war if the Western left continues as they have today, trying to focus the anthrax on the right, between Western God-fearing, Eastern God-Fearing and the Godless.
