And many of them are mumuciously resorting to an even more absurd religion, Islam. . Isn't that the height mumucity seeing the devastating effects such dangerous dogma as Islam can cause in a state.

If Nigeria was all christian, we wouldn't have been facing this terrorism we are facing now, i will pick Chrisitianity over islam any day at least Christians mostly have low tendency of collective violence and extreme intolerance like killing apostates or extreme misogyny...

These people self jumping from frying pan into fire..
Hinduism, Christianity, Taoism, Buddism, Confucianism and ATR are far better religions than islam in terms of violence and idiotic intolerance.

And Christianity also has very cool music and vibes wink


The Christians r converting to atheist because they don't need God to take care of them.since the state is already doing that


No work no hussein govt must provide allowance to u so that u don't suffer.


Meanwhile in naija no food for lazy man opposite is the case abroad.

The lazy man gets allowance plus tax free.. although u cannot get rich. Most of them beleive in enjoying life while ur alive
Politics / Muslim Migrants Converting To Christianity To Gain Asylum In Germany by vodkat: 11:58pm On Sep 07, 2015
EVEN THOUGH SAUDI OR UAE ARE CLOSE BY THESE MIGRANT ARE RISKING THEIR LIFE CROSSING BLACK SEA TO GET TO GERMANY

Muslim migrants are converting to Christianity in their droves in the hope it will greatly improve their chances of winning asylum in Germany.
Hundreds of mostly Iranian and Afghan asylum seekers have changed faiths at the evangelical Trinity Church in a leafy Berlin neighbourhood alone.
Many claim true belief prompted the move, but the decision undoubtedly boosts their chances of being granted asylum by allowing them to claim they would face persecution if sent home.

Germany expected about 2,500 refugees to arrive in the country by early afternoon today after some 20,000 came in over the weekend.
Chancellor Angela Merkel today described the influx as 'breathtaking' and said it would change the make-up of country forever.
She said: 'What we are experiencing now is something that will occupy and change our country in coming years.'
She said Germany will ensure that those who need protection receive it, but that those who stand no chance of getting asylum will have to return to their homes swiftly.

MUSLIM MIGRANTS ECHO 'SOUPERS' FROM THE IRISH POTATO FAMINE
The move by Muslim migrants to convert to Christianity has echoes of the tactics used by desperate Catholics during the Irish potato famine.
After the disaster struck in 1845, some Protestant societies and charities running soup kitchens agreed to feed people on the condition they converted from Catholicism.
Forced to choose between starvation and religion, some did change faith, although perhaps without much conviction.
As a result, they were known as 'soupers' – a derogatory term sometimes applied to whole families for generations afterwards.
It is still used occasionally today to describe a person who 'sells out'.
Martens recognises that some convert in order to improve their chances of staying in Germany – but for the pastor motivation is unimportant.
Many, he said, are so taken by the Christian message that it changes their lives. And he estimates that only about 10 per cent of converts do not return to church after christening.
'I know there are – again and again – people coming here because they have some kind of hope regarding their asylum,' Martens said.
'I am inviting them to join us because I know that whoever comes here will not be left unchanged.'
Being Christian alone does not help an applicant – and Chancellor Angela Merkel went out of her way this week to reiterate that Islam 'belongs in Germany.'
But in Afghanistan and Iran, for example, conversion to Christianity by a Muslim could be punished by death or imprisonment and it is therefore unlikely that Germany would deport converted Iranian and Afghan refugees back home.
None will openly admit to converting in order to help their asylum chances.
To do so could result in rejection of their asylum bid and deportation as Christian converts.
Several candidates for baptism at Martens's church would not give their names out of fear of repercussions for their families back home.
Most said their decision was based on belief, but one young Iranian woman said she was convinced most people had joined the church only to improve their chances for asylum.

Congregation member Vesam Heydari initially applied for asylum in Norway and converted there in 2009.
But his case was rejected because the Norwegian authorities did not believe he would be persecuted as a Christian in Iran, so he moved to Germany to seek refugee status here – and is awaiting a decision.
He criticised many of the other Iranian church members, saying they were making it much harder for 'real, persecuted Christians' like himself to get approved for asylum.
'The majority of Iranians here are not converting out of belief,' Heydari said. 'They only want to stay in Germany.'
Meanwhile, as other churches across Germany struggle with dwindling numbers of believers, Martens has seen his congregation swell from 150 just two years to more than 600 parishioners now – with a seemingly unending flow of new refugees finding the way to his congregation.
Some come from cities as far away as Rostock on the Baltic Sea, having found out by word-of-mouth that Martens not only baptises Muslims after a three-month 'crash course' in Christianity, but also helps them with asylum pleas.
Other Christian communities across Germany, among them Lutheran churches in Hannover and the Rhineland, have also reported growing numbers of Iranians converting to Christendom.
There are no exact numbers on how many Muslims have converted in Germany in recent years – and they are a tiny minority compared to the country's overall four million Muslims.
But at least for Berlin, Martens describes the number of conversions as nothing short of a 'miracle'.
And he says he has at least another 80 people – mostly refugees from Iran and a few Afghans –waiting to be baptised.
Germany is witnessing an unprecedented surge of asylum-seekers this year, with the number of migrants expected to reach 800,000 this year, a fourfold increase on last year.

Many of the new arrivals come from Muslim countries such as Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan or Pakistan.
While refugees from civil-war-torn Syria will almost definitely be receiving asylum status, the situation is more complicated for asylum seekers from Iran or Afghanistan, which are seen as more stable.
In recent years, roughly 40-50 percent from those two countries have been allowed to stay in the country, with many of those getting only temporary permission to remain.
Germany's Federal Office for Migration and Refugees said it does not comment on the reasons individual applicants give when they apply for asylum, or on how many people receive refugee status in Germany based on religious persecution.
Zonoobi, who dressed all in white for his baptism on Sunday, said he had attended secret religious services in Iran ever since friends introduced him to the Bible at age 18.
He decided to flee to Germany after several Christian friends were arrested for practicing their religion.
For Zonoobi and his wife Afsaneh – who since her baptism goes by the name of Katarina – the christening marks a new beginning.
'Now we are free and can be ourselves,' she said.
'Most important, I am so happy that our children will have a good future here and can get a good education in Germany.'

Total Northernization is the way! Nigeria must have a similar ideology, Nigeria must speak with one voice, Nigeria must be homogenous, Nigeria must be Northernize! Northernization is not equal to Islamization, Northernization is not equal to Hausa-Fulani. Northernization is for anyone, Any tribes, Everyone who wants to cooperate with the strongest power in Africa, It is a balance between the West(Britain/America) and the Middle East powers(Saudi Arabia/Iran). You can't win against Northernization, Rather than fighting against it fight for your stake and benefit in it. Just like what the Western powers are doing in the Iranian deal, and what Black Americans did in America. There are tired of fighting against it, they rather seek to benefit from it.

The north is the most backward and underdeveloped region in nigeria. Even though their ppl love leadership for personal enrichment.

Don't be deceived by what you see or what you hear. Islam has nothing to do with what's happening. Have you ever heard of the term khawarij? I guess you've not, all the extremist groups be it boko haram hamas, taliban, Muslim Brotherhood, al-qaida, daesh/isis are all khawarij and they have been refuted by the scholars of Islam past and present. The phenomenon of ISIS and other extremist groups have nothing to do with Islam, Muslims are advised to rally behind the ruler to kill them if they have been advised prior and they persisted upon their falsehood.

Islam for Muslims / Re: Saudi Aid To Syrians by vodkat: 3:28pm On Sep 03, 2015
Truthpallbearer:
There has been a lot of anti-Saudi propaganda
regarding intake of refugees from Syria. It
should be known:
• Saudi Arabia has suspended all immigration
laws regarding Syrians, regardless of how they
entered the country (Umrah, Hajj, Visit or
Business visa) they shall stay.
• ALL Syrian Iqamahs (residency permits) &
visas are valid & renewed until the war in Syria
ends. This is not a new rule, it was enacted
during Prince Naif's lifetime, the late Crown
Prince.
• The Saudi Arabian Ministry of Immigration
enacted laws treating all Syrian children the
same as their Saudi counterparts.
• All Syrian children receive free healthcare
along with their parents and enjoy a free
education.
• Syrian parents are allowed to work as they
please without the fear of Labor Law violation/
penalty.
• Saudi Arabia has also established or funded
multiple refugee camps in Jordan, Turkey &
elsewhere
Saudi Arabia has been doing this for many
years. How long have Western governments
been doing it? Saudi Arabia has also been
fighting multiple wars protecting its borders,
both Northern & Southern. So sad to see
people blindly follow twitter trends ignoring
these facts & overly praising the West
*(Compiled from a series of tweets by Abu
Miftah Adil @abumiftah and rendered into
readable English for whatsapp)


story but why are the syrians rushing to europe instead of saudi arabia or even dubai. Many of them are running away because of the disasterr of islam philiosophy.

. INTRODUCTION

Information is a vital part of life. It is needed for survival. People and culture have evolved greatly.Languages and communication skills have changed.Divination is the act of seeking after knowledge of future or hidden things by inadequate means which isusually supplemented by some power which isrepresented all through history as coming from gods. Itmakes use of signs, omens and coincidences to tellhidden thingsDivination systems, some of which are almost asreading signs and omens, take a more deliberateapproach [4]. They are invented to generatecoincidences that do not depend upon external events,which can then be interpreted. Back in the ancient days, people had their way and languages used tocommunicate. Also, back then, people had ways of doing simple calculations and storing information [5].The abacus was a well-known tool for counting then.

II. THEORIGINOFIFADIVINATION

The Yoruba gods of western Nigeria once existed ashumans and had their way of communicating. Prior totheir disappearance, they left with the people a means tocommunicate with them in the outer realm (the ifadivination). Over 12,000 years ago, Africans developedIfa Oracle divination based on the square of 16=16x16=26 = 2^8 corresponding to the vertices of an8-dimensional hypercube and to the binary 2-choiceClifford algebra C1(cool and so to related ones such asC1(coolxC1(cool = C1(16) [7]. Since the number of sub-hypercubes in an 8-dimensional hypercube is 6,561 =81x81=3^8, the Ifa Oracle has N=8 ternary 3-structureas well as binary 2-structure [2]The processes used in ifa divination and the divinationsystem bear some similarities with Computer Science.Also, Computer Science takes it origin from ifadivination and so, this paper is meant to engage incomparative study between Ifa Divination andComputer Science.Ifa is the deity of wisdom and intellectual development.He is called upon to judge cases and provide answers to problems. He is a link between the people and God(Eledumare) [6].Performing Ifa divination is called ‘

idafa

’ (or

didaowo

and

ounte ale

). Idafa is performed by a Babalawo or Iyanifa (an initiated priest or priestess). Babalawo can be translated as “father of the secrets” while “Iyanifa”means “mother that has ifa” (i.e its blessing). So alsothe Computer science is a filed reserved for a fewcomputer professional and maintain forms of secrecyusing some security algorithmsAccording to Prof Odeyemi in his lecture titled “Whatis Ifa”, Ifa is the Divine Message of Olodumare tomankind and for all those who seek to receive it. Ifa'suniversal relevance lies in the fact that, when anindividual from any race, colour or creed approaches anIfa Priest for a personal message, Ifa may reveal amessage of national, continental or even globalimportance. Which may be similar to artificial neural


networks. For instance, the message may be a warningof an approaching war, famine, or pestilence, althoughthe message-seeker may be concerned only aboutmarriage. As a result of the spread of Ifa over themillennia, it has assumed different names in differentcountries and among different races [8]Orunmila, in order to make access to the retrieval of theDivine Message (Ifa) easy, devised the computer compatible binary coding system, thousands of years before the emergence of computer consciousness in so-called modern man! So, Ifa is preserved in binary codedformat and is output Parable - Format.Ifa is coded within 256

Odus

or Corpus, each Odurepresenting an esoteric pigeonhole, itself divisible into256 sub-holes. Within each of the 256 Odus, there are1,680 Sacred Verses all presented in Parable - Format.Thus, the body of Ifa consists of 430,080 messages for mankind [1]Prof. Olu Longe in His December 22, 1983 Inaugurallecture titled Ifa Divination And Computer Scienceasserted that Orunmila is one of the deities of theYoruba while Ifa divination is a device for forecastingthe future. What has those two got to do with the high-tech world of computer science?Ifa is actually an ancient binary computer systemwhich, in some inexplicable way, has successfullylinked the probability of numbers with the complexitiesof the human condition and the ever complex flux of events. Ifa, Longe said, is based on the 8-bit patternwith its eight–piece divination chain, 16 major odu(chapters) and 256 odu in all.Bade Ajayi in his paper titled A New Model of IfaBinary System stated that Orunmila, the Yoruba God of Wisdom and divination uses a geomantic system of divination to arrive at appropriate signs and employs

Ifa

verses to interpret the signs [1]



Ifa

literary corpus consists of 256 possibilities calledOdu and each Odu also contains superfluous storiescalled ese. Sixteen of the Odu are the principal oneswhile the remaining 240 are the mixed or minor Odu.As the name implies, each mixed Odu is formed by thecombination of two principal Odu. Each of the Odu(both principal and minor) is represented by a specificsign which is binary in nature [13]. Every Odu sign hastwo arms illustrated by the first two principal Odu..,Eji-Ogbe and Oyeku Meji below:

Table 1: Two Arms of Odu Sign

It's pathetic how some terrible people have misunderstood and misinterpreted verses be it Qur'an or Bible to act in despicakel manners. I am a proud Muslim, I get slated and hated for being one, but I care little because my inner peace with Allah matters most over anything. Allah swore in the Qur'an to protect His religion and those who follow its true teachings of love, peace, compassion, charity, patience, piety and knowledge seeing and not those who misinterpret and encourage killings and terror. May God help all of us and in the end, how u relate with the God u believe and others in kindness and love is all that matters.

is Allah the moon god of ancient pagan Arabia?

While "Allah" could refer to God literally, the Allah of Islam is the moon god of ancient pagan Arabia.

The Arabic word for "god" is "ilah", while "al" is the Arabic for "the". Therefore, "Allah" combines "al" with "ilah" and removes the "i", to literally means, "the god".

Allah" was also the personal name given to the moon god, the highest of the 360 pagan idols worshipped in Mecca, Muhammad's home town

What evidence is there that Islam's "Allah" is the pagan moon god of ancient Mecca?

Consider what the pagan Arabians did to worship their moon god, Allah; they prayed while bowing towards K'abah, the "house of Allah" in Mecca that houses a meteorite - a stone from space - several times a day, visited it once a year, and walked around it several times during their visit.

To worship their Allah today:

• Muslims pray bowing towards the K'abah in Mecca five times a day.

• About two million Muslims visit Mecca every year and walk around the K'abah (the black cube, which is 40 feet tall, on the right).

• The Muslim "holy" month of Ramadan starts at the sighting of a new crescent moon.

• . Perched atop mosques across the world is the crescent moon (above), the symbol of Allah whom Muhammad chose as the god of Islam.

When confronted with the details above, Muslim typically re-assert that "Allah" still means "al" + "ilah" - i.e., "the" + "god" -, not the moon god of pagan Mecca.

so who is really the "Allah" they are worshipping, Why r stop bowing down toward a meteorite five times a day and the crescent moon should neither start their "holy" month of Ramadan nor top their mosques.

Banjoramos:
. Actually, as it has been clarified again and again that while Jihad serves as a means of defense for Muslims against aggression, and acts as a deterrent factor against any anti-Islam scheme launched by enemies, it must never be construed as something synonymous with aggression.

Jihad is never a tool of waging war against the innocents; it's never a means of flexing muscles or bullying the weak and oppressed. Jihad in Islam is something unique, established to defend the divine message from being eliminated or hindered by its enemies.

Shedding more light on the true concept of Jihad, Allah says, (And strive in His cause as ye ought to strive (with sincerity and under discipline). He has chosen you, and has imposed no difficulties on you in religion; it is the religion of your father Abraham. It is He (Allah) Who has named you Muslims, both before and in this (Revelation); that the Messenger may be a witness for you, and you be witnesses for mankind! So establish regular Prayer, give regular Charity, and hold fast to Allah! He is your Protector, the best to protect and the Best to help!) (Al-Hajj 22: 78)

Jihad is one of the most misunderstood, and abused aspects of Islam. There are some Muslims who exploit and misuse this concept for their own political objectives. There are many non-Muslims who misunderstand it. There are some non-Muslims who misinterpret it to discredit Islam and Muslims.

What is Jihad?

 The word Jihad does not mean “Holy War”. It means “struggle” or “striving”. The word for war in the Qur’an is “Harb” or “Qital”. Jihad means serious and sincere struggle on the personal as well as on the social level. It is a struggle to do good and to remove injustice, oppression and evil from the society. This struggle should be spiritual as well as social, economic and political. Jihad is to work hard to do right things. In the Qur’an this word is used in its different forms 33 times. It often comes with other Qur’anic concepts such as faith, repentance, righteous deeds and migration.

Jihad is to protect one’s faith and one’s human rights. Jihad is not a war always although it can take the form of war. Islam is the religion of peace, but it does not mean that Islam accepts oppression. Islam teaches that one should do one’s utmost to eliminate tension and conflict. Islam promotes non-violent means to bring change and reform. Actually, Islam urges that one should eliminate evil through peaceful means without the use of force as much as possible. In Islamic history from the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) until now, Muslims most of the time resisted oppression and struggled for liberation in non-violent and peaceful manners.

Islam teaches proper ethics in the situation of war also. The war is permissible in Islam, but only when other peaceful means such as dialogue, negotiations and treaties fail. It is a last resort and should be avoided as much as possible. Its purpose is not to convert people by force, or to colonize people or to acquire land or wealth or for self-glory. Its purpose is basically: defense of life, property, land, honor and freedom for oneself as well as defense of others from injustice and oppression.

The basic rules of war in Islam are:

 1. Be strong so that your enemy fear you and should not attack you.

2. Do not begin the hostilities. Work for peace as much as possible.

3. Fight only those who fight, no collective punishment; non-combatants should not be harmed. Weapons of mass destruction should not be used.

4. Stop hostilities as soon as the other party is inclined to peace.

5. Observe the treaties and agreements as long as the enemy observes them.

Allah says very clearly: (Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you, but do not do aggression, for Allah loves not the aggressors.) (Al-Baqarah 2: 190)

(The prohibited month, for the prohibited month, and so for all things prohibited, there is the law of equality. If then any one transgresses the prohibition against you, transgress ye likewise against him. But fear Allah, and know that Allah is with those who restrain themselves.) (Al-Baqarah 2: 194)

Jihad is not terrorism:

 It is to be emphasized that terrorism against the innocent civilians, whether through aggression or suicidal means, is under no circumstances permissible in Islam. Islam encourages the oppressed people to struggle for their liberation and it commands other Muslims to help those who are oppressed and suffering, but Islam does not allow, under any circumstance, terrorism against non-combatants and innocent people. Terrorism is not Jihad, it is Fasad (mischief). It is against the teachings of Islam. There are some people who use their twisted arguments to justify terrorism for their causes, but it has no justification: Allah says: (When it is said to them: 'Make not mischief on the earth,' they say: 'Why, we only want to correct things.' Indeed they are the mischief doers, but they realize (it) not.) (Al-Baqarah 2: 11-12)

Islam wants to establish a world order where all human beings - Muslims and non-Muslims - can live with justice in peace, harmony and good will. It gives its followers full guidelines to find peace in their personal and social lives, but it also tells them how to extend the good will on the basis of human relations towards others. Muslims worked under these principles for centuries. People of many faiths lived with them and among them. Islamic societies were known for their tolerance, generosity and humanity.

In our modern society where we are living in a global village, where non-Muslims are living with Muslims in the Muslim countries and Muslims are living with non-Muslims in countries where non-Muslims constitute a majority, it is our duty to bring better understanding among ourselves, work for peace and justice for all people and cooperate with each other in matters of goodness and virtue in order to stop all terrorism, aggression and violence against the innocent people. This is our Jihad today.

Allah Almighty knows best.

Religion / Re: For Muslims Please Answer Me by vodkat: 2:51am On Aug 03, 2015
see that ur belifs are wrong

iography Of Walid Shoebat

For the record, my name is Walid Shoebat. I used to be a radicalized Muslim willing to die for the cause of Jihad until I converted to Christianity in 1994. As a member of the PLO I was involved in terror activity, and was imprisoned in Jerusalem for three weeks. In prison, I was recruited to plant a bomb in Bethlehem as a result of which, thank God, no one was injured. My mother was an American and my father a Palestinian Arab. My parents sent me in 1978 to the United States to study at Loop College in Chicago Illinois. There I was recruited at a hotel “Terror Conference” by Jamal Said, a founder of the IAP (Islamic Association of Palestine) and Imam at one of the largest mosques in Chicago. The IAP was a forerunner to today’s Hamas terror organization and also to the terror front group CAIR (Council for American Islamic relations). This was in the early 1980s when I was being trained for Jihad activities in the USA along with many other young foreigners as well as US citizens. The Imams were the prime recruiters for terrorism then as they are still today and terror conferences are held all over the USA to this day. Here is a link to a sample we have on video which was held in 1989, over twelve years before the 9/11 attacks.

Today, Jamal Said is still the Imam of the Bridgeview Mosque in Chicago. Based on my eye witness testimony, he supports terrorism and and is a major player in the operations of the Jihadi movements in the USA – yet he is still free at large. I state the above so you know, Congressman King, my background and firsthand knowledge of the issue. I speak to the American people to warn and educate them about the very great dangers which are very underplayed both by our media and our political leaders.

Now that you have brief details of my background, I would like to offer my expert opinion, if you can call me an expert – but perhaps an experienced former terrorist would be more appropriate.

We focus on Al-Qaeda, yet the danger is not only from Al-Qaeda but also other Islamic terror groups. Our administration, however, focuses on a narrow tunnel. Let’s look at some examples: Abu Mezer, during 2007, intended to blow up a subway system. He was a member of Hamas, not Al-Qaeda. Najibullah Zazi was a member of Al-Qaeda, Shahzad belonged to the Taliban and Abu-Mezer was a member of Hamas – which one is a greater threat? All of these terrorists were influenced in one way or another by the Muslim Brotherhood, the cartel and mother umbrella of all terror organizations.

Our policy which places Al-Qaeda as the number one threat is an incorrect premise. All Islamist organizations should be a priority beginning with CAIR and ISNA (Islamic Association of North America). These, along with the MSA (Muslim Students Association), promote the Jihad terror agenda and are responsible for spreading Radical Islam. The US University campuses are a major recruiting ground for terrorists.

All terrorists are radicalized through undue influence by Islamist organizations beginning with their local Mosque as well as from abroad. The US home grown terrorists Zazi and Shahzad traveled to Qatar and Pakistan in August 2008 in an attempt to reach Afghanistan. They intended to “conduct Jihad against America [the] Occupier,” they said.

We need to stop recognizing the legitimacy of Muslim pressure groups. We must understand that these so-called moderate Muslims have been proven as misrepresenting themselves to the media and the public. They are part and parcel of the Muslim Brotherhood apparatus to distract the public and mislead people on the issues of the Radical Muslim agenda.

Imam Rauf, who has been given a significant level of respect by our government, is a supporter of terrorism. He made the follwing statement in Arabic: “People asked me right after the 9/11 attacks as to why movements with political agendas carry [Islamic] religious names. Why call it ‘Muslim Brotherhood’ or ‘Hezbollah (Party of Allah)’ or ‘Hamas’ or ‘Islamic Resistance Movement’? I answer them this — that the trend towards Islamic Law and Justice begins in religious movements, because secularism has failed to deliver what the Muslim wants, which is life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Imam Rauf also said, “The only law that the Muslim needs exists already in the Koran and the Hadith.” From an article titled “Sharing The Essence Of Our Beliefs” by Feisal Abdul Rauf, Al-Ghad Newspaper in Jordan, 5/9/2009 http://www.alghad.com/?article=12635.

While we can assume that Feisal Abdul Rauf will not participate in an explosive act, he sure supports organizations that trend towards what he calls “Islamic Law and Justice.” His words are more encouraging to the terrorists than they are to seeking a bridge to peace and harmony between Muslims and Non-Muslims in the US. The rhetoric of Islamic leaders in the Arabic language needs to be closely monitored, as it can identify them as fomenters of hate and terrorist recruiters.

Mainstream Muslim organizations that purport to act in the interests of our nation as loyal citizens are beyond a doubt, doing quite the opposite. Statements worse than those of Imam Rauf, including direct financial and moral support to Islamic terrorists, have been carried out by members of all the major Islamic organizations in America and are the purveyors of radicalism.

Ghassan Elashi of CAIR is serving 65-year prison sentence for funneling over 12 million dollars from the Holy Land Foundation to Hamas. Mousa Abu Marzook, a former CAIR official, was designated in 1995 by the U.S. government as a “terrorist and Hamas leader.” He now is a Hamas leader in Syria. Randall Royer, CAIR’s former civil rights coordinator, began serving a 20-year prison sentence in 2004 for aiding Al-Qaeda and the Taliban against American troops in Afghanistan as well as recruiting for Lashkar e-Taiba, the jihadist group responsible for the 2008 Jihad massacres in Mumbai. Bassem Khafagi, CAIR’s former community relations director, was arrested for involvement with the Islamic Assembly of North America, which was linked to Al-Qaeda. After pleading guilty to visa and bank fraud charges, Khafagi was deported. Rabih Haddad, a former CAIR fundraiser, was deported for his work with the Global Relief Foundation (which he co-founded), a terror-financing organization.

The number one radical Islamic organization in the USA is CAIR, which needs to be probed and shut down for sponsoring terror. Many peace-loving Muslims do support a probe of CAIR and the other major Islamic organizations. Those who don’t are likely supporting the radical agenda. While the terrorists’ goal is to spread Sharia, the Islamist political agenda creates radical Muslims, both of which have a goal to threaten our Constitution and replace it with Sharia law. Both act simultaneously to eradicate our way of life.

Congressman King:

Jihad, or what we define as Terrorism, comes in three forms – Jihad by the pen, Jihad by the sword and Jihad by finance. When one is not in a position of military strength he uses the pen, or propaganda. If one has military strength, he uses violence, including acts of terror. Jihad by finance comes in the form of money to fund both the propaganda and the terror. The major criticism of your hearing has come from CAIR and other major Muslim organizations, and the reason is simple – your efforts may threaten to expose their real agenda.

Even satan worshippers have not killed as much ppl. Islam is a pagan religion because the god ur worshipping is the Moon god called Allah not olorun or edumare, its allah the moon good. Even before u fast u have to take permission from moon, face east when God is supposed to be a an ominpotent spirit

China, South Korea , Japan have banned islam completely. Africans became mslims as a result of slave trade its in history books

Being a muslim in the world is a liabilty, take Nigeria for example and look at the effects of the islam. Look at somalia, look at libya , any where u have muslims gaining population the whole place goes under its head. Both islam and christainity are foreign culture but christanity is more peaceful and is not violent and cause ppl to commit murder

The real islam is boko haram and isis but when it puts on its mask it will be saying peace ,peace peace but when it removes its masks see it true face which... is slaughther, rape, destruction etc as commanded by their leader and they impose there culture on u by force...

Islam is just a tool of the arabs to gain land or create colonys. I can only pity u if you cannot see there goal, u are probably underexposed and have not seen the world to know what is going on.
