The Underground Jihad against America

Radical Islam is invading the United States of America with a two-fold strategy that uses nuclear bombs and political correctness to advance its dominion agenda. An investigative report

Paul Williams considers himself lucky to be alive. Hundreds of militant Islamists surrounded the American reporter, each one trained to kill “infidels” like him. If but for a few moments, Williams experienced the flood of emotions common to journalists who fall prey to terrorists. Reporters like The Wall Street Journal’s Daniel Pearl, who probed a possible connection between British “shoe bomber” Richard Reid and Mubarik Ali Gilani, a Pakistani cleric with ties to militant Islamic groups. Pearl was en route to interview Gilani when he was kidnapped and beheaded in 2002.

The difference between Pearl and Williams is geography. Pearl was murdered in a Pakistani terrorist hotbed thousands of miles away from home. Williams was facing the same brand of militant Islamic enemy right in his own American backyard. The scene of Williams’ near-death experience was a small, rural area in southern Virginia called Red House. There he found a compound established by Jamaat ul-Fuqra, a terrorist organization founded by none other than Mubarik Ali Gilani. Jamaat ul-Fuqra is the same radical Islamic group behind the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and the Beltway Sniper, not to mention a long string of murders, assassinations and firebombs.

A fearless Williams approached the gate of the compound. “Nobody is in here. The place is deserted!” an old burqa-wearing woman insisted.  Lies. The Red House compound was anything but abandoned. Deserted compounds don’t require gates and sentry posts to keep outsiders at bay. Of course, Williams didn’t accept the old woman’s answer, nor did he shrink back from the possible danger within. Still, despite having penned six books that uncover the terror plans and plots of Al-Qaeda and other militant Islamic groups, what Williams saw next shocked him.

See, Williams already had proof positive that the U.S. is peppered with compounds at which Islam fundamentalists are training terrorists for jihad. Williams already had undisputable evidence that Islamic extremists are hoarding nuclear materials with plans to simultaneously attack at least seven major American cities in what would result in a stateside Hiroshima. But until he visited Red House, even Williams didn’t understand the magnitude of Islam’s infiltration into America. Now he knows that Red House is the location of one of dozens of terrorist training camps on, or as it were, under American soil.

Firefighters on the scene of 911 terrorist attack.“Think of coming into a rusty trailer park and seeing old sheds that look like outhouses. From one shed came five or six very young, robust and muscular African-Americans in full Islamic garb. Behind them came a dozen more. Behind them came a dozen more. Behind them came 15 more – out of one little shed,” recalls Williams, author of books like “Day of Islam,” “Osama’s Revenge: The Next 9/11” and “The Al Qaeda Connection.” “Islamic terrorist groups have at least 500 underground bunkers and caches of weapons. I thought there were only 14 jihad training compounds throughout the States. Now I know there are more than 40 because I’ve been there. There could be as many as 200 – and nobody is doing anything about it,” Williams told The Voice magazine amid incoming calls about a foiled terror plot on John F. Kennedy International (JFK) Airport. As a former FBI consultant and current director of counter-terrorism for the Christian Action Network, Williams’ insights into the breaking news about a Muslim terrorist cell’s conspiracy to blow up jet fuel supply tanks and pipelines at JFK were highly coveted.

Williams’ life-threatening investigation at Red House offers alarming insights into radical Islam’s American agenda: dominion by any means necessary. But it is critical to understand that there are two types of jihad. One approach to carrying out this so-called “holy war” is bent on aggressive moves to destroy America, a nation also known among Islamic extremists as the “great satan.” This type of jihad produces sickening displays of hatred for Jews and Americans through Hamas-produced propaganda. Case in point: programs starring Mickey Mousey characters scripted to brainwash Muslim children with anti-Zionist dominion mindsets in the name of Allah. The second type of jihad is marked by a slow and steady cultural change of which the end result is global Islamic rule, less noticeable but just as dangerous.

There is evidence upon evidence that the Islamic world – a world that is internally divided into various sects that fight amongst themselves over interpretations of the Koran and its inherently hateful message – is making inroads into the United States of America. There is further proof that the U.S. government is not only failing to eradicate terrorist cells from the land, but has opened the door for a subtle jihad to gain momentum through political correctness, tolerance, and even taxpayer money. The only hope for the Western world lies in the Body of Christ, for it is far too late to assume that U.S. troops, which are stretched thin attempting to establish democracy in foreign lands, can rally against “martyrs” carrying suitcase bombs that can kill millions of people in the blink of an eye.

The American Hiroshima

At the root of the jihad waged on behalf of Islamic fundamentalists as a “religious duty” is an organization called The Muslim Brotherhood. Hassan al-Banna, a pan-Islamist who opposed the secular tendencies in Islamic nations, formed The Muslim Brotherhood in 1928. It was he who birthed the credo, “Allah is our objective. The Prophet is our leader. Koran is our law. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.”

Almost every radical Islamic group can trace its fundamentalist lineage to the Brotherhood. Hamas – the terror group that made headlines in June 2007 for taking over the Gaza Strip by deadly force – is a direct offshoot of the Brotherhood. Hassan al-Turabi, who helped shield Osama bin Laden and his Al-Qaeda network in Sudan, also has ties to the Brotherhood. As it turns out, this evil would-be empire has connections to most major Islamic banks and has built a hidden financial structure to fund its dominion agenda.
“The Muslim Brotherhood’s agenda is Islamic world order. The Muslim Brotherhood is on a mission to take over governments, whether by treason or by force. Groups like Al-Qaeda spread Islam by force,” notes Joe Kaufman, chairman of Americans Against Hate, a civil rights organization and terrorism watchdog group. If displacing governments sounds more like a political movement than a religious movement, that’s because the most extreme form of Islam is as much one as the other, according to Dr. Judith Rood, an associate professor of history and Middle Eastern Studies at Biola University, a private Christian university in La Mirada, Calif. The goal of the Muslim Brotherhood is not only to convert nations to Islam, she explains, it’s to rebuild the Islamic community as a political power where clergy rules the government. “These political goals are driven by hatred,” Rood explains. “The conversation has changed from merely anti-Zionism to propagating Islam across the world. We can’t be naïve about this.”

Behind the Islamic Veil

Nuclear attacks are, of course, only one jihad strategy. Sign posts point to a subtle jihad that is well underway in the U.S. that most Americans may be too busy to notice or too politically correct to combat. Indeed, behind the Islamic veil is a slow-and-steady-wins-the-world tactic, a deadly plan to convert every nation to Islam. The strategy uses democracy and the First Amendment right to free speech to tear apart democracy and the First Amendment right to free speech. It’s a strategy that uses the U.S. legal system instead of all-out violence. Moves by the Council on American-Islamic Relations, or CAIR, serve as prime examples. CAIR frequently files lawsuits against people who say anything the organization feels is negative about Islam. Cases in point: ABC Radio fired talk show host Michael Graham for linking Islam with terror – after CAIR applied due pressure. CAIR also targeted ABC’s radio legend Paul Harvey for making comments about Islamic violence. CAIR demanded an apology. Harvey was forced to submit.

Mock Nuclear Suitcase“It’s very difficult to compete against a religion that has a deep-seeded understanding of what it wants to achieve and has imperial goals. Islam wants to conquer the world. Its leaders recognize who the infidels are and will do everything in their power to establish Islam using the very liberalism of our culture,” says Dr. Herbert London, president of the Washington, D.C.-based Hudson Institute, a non-partisan policy research organization dedicated to research and analysis that promotes global security, prosperity, and freedom. Under First Amendment rights, Islam claims it is a religion like any other religion and intends to proselytize the same way Christians evangelize. London, however, doesn’t believe most Americans truly understand the difference between Islam and other religions. Combined with tolerance, secular humanism, and multiculturalism, he says, this lack of understanding has offered Islam a stronghold in America.

To understand the difference between the militant jihadist and the patient jihadist, one has to pay close attention to the words of Abdurrahman Alamoudi, founder of the American Muslim Council, the American Muslim Foundation and the American Muslim Armed Forces and Veteran Affairs Council.  Steven Emerson, an internationally recognized expert on terrorism and national security and best-selling author of several books on jihad, including “Jihad Incorporated,” testified before the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks that Alamoudi said this:

“I think our attitude toward America should change  – we have a chance, in America, to be the moral leadership of America. The problem is when? It will happen, it will happen [Allah willing], I have no doubt in my mind, Muslims sooner or later will be the moral leadership of America. It depends on me and you, either we do it now or we do it after a hundred years, but this country will become a Muslim country. And I [think] if we are outside this country we can say ‘Oh, Allah destroy America,’ but once we are here, our mission in this country is to change it.”

That proposed change is a shift from the 10 Commandments and Christ’s law of liberty – a law that commands the hearer to love his neighbor as he loves himself – to murderous Sharia Law. Sharia Law is derived from the Koran and the Hadith (traditions related to the words and deeds of Muhammad) and Muslims believe it expresses the highest and best goals for all societies as the will of Allah. These laws state, for instance, that if a thief is caught his hand must be chopped off. Highway robbers are crucified or mutilated. Adulterers are stoned to death. And Muslim critics are executed.

“We are seeing lots of religious and political demands that amount to one-sided favors to the Islamic community. They get special Arabic schools paid for by New York City. They get washbasins at universities. Islamic taxi drivers don’t have to pick up passengers who have seeing-eye dogs or alcohol on their breath. Islamic employees at grocery stores don’t have to handle pork at checkout counters. Islamic groups try to get school boards to excise books that are judgmental of Islam and try to get professors who are deemed critical of Islam fired. I call it incremental Sharia,” Emerson says.

Incremental Sharia LAW

That incremental Sharia may begin with initiatives like the Khalil Gibran International Academy in Brooklyn. The public, taxpayer-funded school, which is scheduled to open in September 2007, serves grades six through 12 and boasts a “multicultural curriculum and intensive Arabic language instruction.” Loosely translated, that means indoctrinating students with an Arab slant on Middle Eastern history. Understanding that radical Islam views non-Muslims learning Arabic as one more step toward becoming Muslim, American researchers are more than a little concerned.

“In principle this is a great idea – we need more Arabic speakers,” says Daniel Pipes, director of the Middle East Forum, a Philadelphia-based think tank that seeks to define and promote American interests – including fighting radical Islam and working for Palestinian acceptance of Israel – in the Middle East. “In practice, Arabic instruction is heavy with Islamist and Arabist implications,” Pipes continues. “Therefore, such a school needs to be established under special scrutiny. But political correctness makes that impossible. Therefore, I am against this school.” London is not only against the school; he called it an outrage. “It capitalizes on American tolerance and insinuates an imperial goal into legitimate educational systems. It is a clear attempt to hoist the First Amendment by its own petard. How can you discriminate against a minority religion?” he asks.

And how can you mandate separation of church and state, yet give special rights to Muslims in public schools? Minneapolis Community and Technical College, one such public institution, is installing facilities for ritual foot washing for Muslim students who are required by their religion to pray during school hours. It seems many Muslim students use restroom sinks to wash their feet before prayer. Some students have complained, and one Muslim student fell and injured herself while taking her foot out of the sink. The school doesn’t believe that foot washing promotes or supports religion, but rather sees it as a public safety issue and a move to make Muslims feel more at home.

Meanwhile, the U.S. government is giving mosques security grants intended to protect churches, synagogues and other non-profit groups from Islamic terror. With terrorism experts estimating that 80 percent of U.S. mosques are funded and controlled through the Saudi Arabian government, it seems that mosques are low on the list of possible bomb targets compared to synagogues and Christian churches. Yet the Hamas-backed CAIR is urging its members to apply for the grants, depriving the organizations for which they were intended from the protection they may well need in the face of violent jihadists.

There are far too many examples of the subtle jihad to spell out in any one article, but there are some conclusions we can draw about Islam’s success infiltrating the U.S. culture. Emerson points out four roots: fear, political correctness, multiculturalism, and ideological empathy for what he called a “false underdog.” All of the above are causing U.S. authorities to adapt to Islam at the expense of other religions. Muslims are portraying themselves as victims, he says, but they are actually perpetrators. Muslims believe that everyone started out as a Muslim, he explains, but that Jews and Christians were corrupted. “One doesn’t convert to Islam,” Emerson notes. “One reverts to Islam.”
The Anti-Jihad Revolution The evidence is in. Radical Islam is underground training to blow up America and above ground using the United States Constitution to protect its civil rights. The U.S. Census Bureau estimates there are approximately 2.35 million Muslims living in America. Of course, they aren’t all radical, militant, extremist, fundamental, or whatever word you prefer to use to describe jihadists. There are indeed moderate Muslims who don’t believe in destroying America, but there are plenty under our soil with cocked guns, sharpened knives and nuclear weapons waiting for the war cry to emerge for a full-blown jihad. Homeland Security is preparing for a nuclear attack.

It may be that, barring an intervention from God Himself, the United States will see much worse than the tragedy of September 11, 2001. Over and again experts told The Voice magazine that it’s not a matter of if, but when the U.S. will find herself in the wake of militant Islam-bred disaster. Americans have to take the matter into their own hands, according to our expert commentators. Some believe the Church of Jesus Christ should be leading the way.

“If we don’t defend and assert and recognize the value of our Judeo-Christian traditions, if we don’t teach them in our schools, then it does seem to me that we have a real problem on our hands,” London says. “Universities don’t help because by and large they are engaged in the masochistic exercise of continually tearing America down. Of course, we’ve had blemishes. We’re an imperfect nation.  But we’re an imperfect nation that is still among the best the world has ever known. And that is the point that is very often overlooked because the accomplishments are not pointed out in our history classes or our civic classes, only the blemishes.”

Part of the answer lies in storming the gates of Capitol Hill and demanding that our elected officials fight the good fight. War has been declared on America, but America has not declared war on the terrorists. Groups like Anti-CAIR, American Congress for Truth, Christians United for Israel and Americans Against Hate are calling on Americans for support in sending a message to the U.S. government to cut the political correctness and demand the preservation of the spirit of American laws.

In July 2007, for example, Kaufman’s Americans Against Hate protested outside the 32nd national convention of the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) and the Muslim American Society in Hartford, Conn. Kaufman’s group called on the U.S. government to freeze the bank accounts of the ICNA and to place the Muslim Brotherhood of Pakistan, Jamaat-e-Islami, on the State Department list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations. Kaufman said he has proof that both groups have been involved in financing Hamas with tens of thousands of dollars, as recently as in August of 2006.

Kaufman also called for Minnesota Congressman Keith Ellison to repent for remarks he made at the Muslim American Society of Minnesota. During Ellison’s keynote to the group, he made statements such as, “A Muslim must always worship Allah and wage jihad until death in order to reach his ultimate goal… Regularly make the intention to go on jihad with the ambition to die as a martyr.” “When Keith Ellison ran for office, he denounced the anti-Semitism of Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam, a group that he was previously affiliated with. We demand that he do the same to the Muslim American Society,” Kaufman says. “It is not only improper for a United States Representative to participate with such groups, but it is a danger to national security.”

Williams, our journalist/activist friend and eyewitness to underground terror training camps, looks at radical Islam’s American agenda from a biblical perspective. What would Jesus do if militant Islamists were attempting to rule the world by force in His day? “Jesus called us to be engaged in the world. We know from the Garden of Gethsemane that the disciples were armed and dangerous. They were not pacifists. They were people to contend with,” Williams says. “Christians today are milk toast. They are not militant. They support candidates who say we are at war with terror. You can’t be at war with terror. We are at war with people who have declared war with us. We are at war with Hezbollah and Hamas and the Egyptian Islamic Jihad and other terrorists. If we are at war, let’s have a war.”
