“Radical Movement’s Leader Forecasts America’s Demise”
IPT News
December 4, 2009
SNIPPET: “As the spotlight moves away from the Fort Hood massacre, one of America’s most openly radical Islamist organizations has taken to the murderer’s defense. As-Sabiqun, a Washington D.C.-based organization with branches in four other major American cities, released a flyer labeling shooter Nidal Malik Hasan as “victimized” and the “target of psychological warfare.” The handout also defended convicted terrorists and suspects.
As-Sabiqun has repeatedly predicted the demise of the United States and dreams of “the Islamic State of North America no later than 2050.” It has openly declared support for terrorist organizations like Hamas and Hizbullah, and even claimed it funded anti-American militants. With concerns growing over radical Islamist propaganda in the United States, As-Sabiqun is one of the leading organizations building a bridge between international Islamism and its developing American counterpart.
As-Sabiqun is headquartered in Washington D.C., but has branches in Oakland, Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Diego, and Philadelphia. Its leader, Imam Abdul Alim Musa, is well-known in Islamist circles for spreading anti-American propaganda and militancy. Last weekend, Musa addressed the annual conference of the Muslim Students Association – Persian Speaking group, a Shia branch of the national Muslim Students Association primarily for Shia Muslims. There, Musa saluted the Iranian Revolution as the “greatest epic in modern, even ancient history” and urged the students to have patience as the United States collapsed:
“Well I’m telling you, it’s very simple. I think you got the message now. We’re in a big war brothers and sisters. This is as big as it gets for the United States. We are just like it is during the 60s and 70s. So if you’re gonna be Muslim, buckle down and be a tough one because in the final analysis the U.S. is finished.”
Musa was applauded following his conclusion, in which he honored the survival of the Iranian Revolution and its student supporters in the United States:”

D.C. - Based Mosque’s “Cause Célèbre” Holiday

SNIPPET: “As-Sabiqun, a Washington, DC-based extremist group, plans to divert the focus of the festivities away from the themes of generosity and sacrifice by distributing a leaflet at morning prayers that portrays Major Nidal Hasan (who opened fire on soldiers at Ft. Hood, killing 13 and wounding 30 others) as a victim of the “Zionist American” government that is employing a program of “psychological warfare” to “oppress Muslims.”
This is a clear example of what the Center for Terrorism Research at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies has termed “Cause Célèbre Islam.”
Cause célèbre Islam forecasts an inevitable violent revolution between American Muslims (particularly African American Muslims) and the U.S. government. As-Sabiqun is one of the most visible and vocal groups that typifies cause célèbre Islam. Publicly, As-Sabiqun’s founder, leader, and imam, Abdul Alim Musa, does not appear to share religious wisdom or guidance. Rather, his constant theme is that of threats and harassment against Muslims by the U.S. government. The most recent issue of the CTR Vantage covers cause célèbre Islam; its origins and its current manifestations.
The leaflet As-Sabiqun intends for distribution at holiday celebrations tomorrow refers to President Obama as “Judas Goat” - suggesting that he is a puppet who leads Muslims to the slaughterhouse. The leaflet also declares that As-Sabiqun charges the U.S. government with “high crimes and treason.” The ultimate purpose of the leaflet is the raise money for As-Sabiqun to transform its old masjid facilities into the “Islamic Institute for Counter Zionist American Psychological Warfare” - framing it as something of a headquarters from which they can launch a counter-attack on the U.S. government in the war they perceive is being waged against them.”
