“Among the five suspects now in Dallas Police custody are self described Islamic Americans who attended a Nation of Islam mosque in the South Dallas area. It should be noted that the Nation of Islam itself is splintered into several groups. Louis Farrakhan, who took over the organization in 1981, subscribes to Dianetics and appears to have left Islam altogether. Its ideology is barely recognizable as Islamic.”
Nation of Islam history. Another Muslim hate organization!

What Is The Nation Of Islam? History, Beliefs, Practices Of The Religious Movement
BY ZOE MINTZ @ZOEMINTZ ON 02/26/15 AT 11:39 AM
Every year, followers of the Nation of Islam celebrate the birth of its founder on Feb. 26. The holiday, known as Saviours Day, is commemorated by a three-day series of lectures, speakers and workshops in Chicago.
This year marks the 85th anniversary of the movements birth. Events were held on Feb. 20-Feb. 22, coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the death of Malcolm X, the civil rights leader who was assassinated when he was 39.
Malcolm was largely known as a spokesman for the Nation of Islam, a religious movement based on Islam. He joined the group after he was released from prison in 1952 and ministered at several temples including the largest one in Harlem in New York City. His influence led the group to grow from 400 members in 1952 to 40,000 in 1960.

He broke with the group shortly before his death on Feb. 21, 1965. Radical Nation of Islam members shot and killed Malcolm while he was speaking at a rally for Organization of Afro-American Unity, a more moderate group Malcolm X founded in 1964.
For those unfamiliar with the Nation of Islam and its beliefs, below are answers to four common questions about the organization.
1. Whats the history of the nation of Islam?
Wallace D. Fard, originally from Saudi Arabia, founded the Nation of Islam in 1930 in Detroit. He established a temple, the University of Islam and a corps of male guards called the Fruit of Islam that year.
According to the groups website, Fard preached that African-Americans belonged to the Tribe of Shabazz from the Lost Nation of Asia, who had been enslaved in America for more than three centuries.
His mission was to teach the downtrodden and defenseless black people a thorough knowledge of God and of themselves and to put them on the road to self-independence with a superior culture and higher civilization than they had previously experienced, the website states.
The group mixed the belief systems of Islam — they read the Quran, worshipped Allah as their God and accepted Muhammad as their prophet — with Black Nationalism. Fard believed that African-Americans should prepare for a race war and Christianity was a religion for slave owners. Members given names, which he believed originated during slavery, should be replaced with Arabic ones.
In June 1934, Fard reportedly disappeared in the woods. His followers believed he was an incarnation of Allah. Today, they celebrate his birthday, known as Saviours’ Day, on Feb. 26.
The group was left to the leadership of Elijah Muhammad who advocated a more radical approach. He preached for the foundation of a separate state for African-Americans, advocated anti-white theology and called for adherence to a strict moral code.
At the time of Muhammads death on Feb. 25, 1975, the group had grown to 250,000 members. Afterward, the group fragmented. One faction was led by his son, Warith Deen Mohammed, who advocated for a more traditional approach to Islam. Louis Farrakhan, another Nation of Islam leader, did not like this direction and began his own version of the Nation of Islam based on Elijah Muhammads teachings.
Farrakhan remains the groups leader to this day. He is a polarizing figure who comments on a variety of social issues, including the countrys government, educational system and urban communities.
One of his latest speeches, given on Dec. 1, encouraged his audience to tear this goddamn country up, referring to the shooting death of unarmed black teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. You may not want to fight, but you better get ready. Teach your baby how to throw the bottle if they can, bite. Were going to die anyway, lets die for something, he said.
The Nation of Islam does not state how many members it has. In 2007, Lawrence A. Mamiya, a professor of religion and African studies at Vassar College, told the New York Times he estimates there are 50,000 members. There are strong followings among the American prison population. There are several smaller chapters outside of the U.S. in England and the Caribbean.

(There is nothing unique/special about the words "radical Islam", "Nation of Islam," "Isis" !!! It is just "Islam.")
The story below is from August of 2014. This angle on the Dallas situation absolutely needs to be thouroughly looked into. Who were the two people stopped in the Mercedes? What happened to the ‘woman’ reported on last night?

“...ISIS has seemingly had no problem recruiting people from western nations to fight in their cause. There are numerous people that claim to be members of the Islamic State from Britain, France and Germany. Even the executor of American journalist James Foley earlier this week was a radicalized Brit.
The members of ISIS claim that they are at “war with America” and at “war with the West.” So far, that doesn’t seem to have come to fruition. Although Texas Governor Rick Perry said it is a “real possibility” that members of the terrorist group could have snuck through the nation’s southern border, it would be easier to bring the war to America by starting from within.
According to an NBC news report, a “small handful” of Americans have already begun fighting alongside ISIS.”

If this is a terrorist attack by muslims then obama will refuse to say so and the corrupt media will bury the story like all the others.

"Did Muslim Vote In Virginia Swing Senate Control"
'The Detroit Free Press reports Muslims played a critical role in the November midterm elections.
Imam Mahdy Bray, Speaking at a Muslim American Society and Islamic Circle of North America convention in Dearborn, highlighted the effective effort to turn out Muslim voters in Virginia.
The effort was so organized that Muslim taxi drivers in northern Virginia took the day off to ferry Muslims to the polls, said Imam Mahdy Bray, a speaker at the convention. Volunteers also made phone calls to Muslims in Virginia to urge them to vote, he said.
As a result, Democrat James Webb ousted incumbent Republican George Allen by about 9,000 votes in a race in which 50,000 Muslims went to the polls -- 47,000 of them voting for Webb, Bray said.
If 96 percent of Muslims are going to vote Democratic, that would make them a more reliable Democratic constituency than African Americans. Democrats consistently receive only about 80 percent of African American votes.

All part of “the summer of chaos” wanted by Obama & BLM. They are going all out now. Killing Police for Obama’s agenda. Blacks get the blame even though the Muzzies are the actual perps.
But wait! There is more!
MSM is feeding this pablum that there was only one shooter!
How can this be possible?
I smell a rat.
I’ve read a number of articles indicating that ISIS is instructing it’s supporters/collaborators to only kill white Americans because every time they commit a terrorist act, it is attributed to racism from whites. They want credit for their mayhem and murder.
Our “leaders’” refusal to tell it like it is is causing them to ramp it up!
Again:
Ban all muslims.
Remove all muslims.
Never let muslims in ever again.
Yesterday was the anniversary of the terrorist attack in England in 2005, the subway bombings which left 52 people dead.
Nice try to exonerate BLM activists - they are working hand-in-hand with terrorists.<p.Now, if the slant had been that BLM is a terrorist organization, it would be a good story.
For later
