In 2011, at Ravenwood High School in Brentwood TN, a young Muslim girl, Demin Zawity, created a stir due to her not being able to wear her hijab while participating in the ROTC program. “It was during Spirit Week. We were getting ready for the homecoming parade and the head officer said that I wouldn’t be able to wear the head scarf while I had the uniform on,” Demin said.
“I said that it was a religious thing and that I really couldn’t take it off.”
Demin’s family believed she was being discriminated against, and reached out to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which called on the school district and the Department of Defense to change the policy.
CAIR later wrote to Defense Secretary Leon Panetta requesting “constitutionally-protected religious accommodations for the girl and for future Muslim JROTC participants.”
In a letter CAIR sent on Panetta’s behalf, then Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army Larry Stubblefield explained that based on the incident that led Zawity to quit JROTC, the Army will now be making more accommodations for religious headwear in the training program.
There you have it. A Muslim complains she is being discriminated against, they call CAIR/Hamas, and change is made, all due to Ms. Zawity claiming it was a “religious thing”.
It’s all about change. Altering policies to accommodate Muslims. The below picture is Demin Zawity in 2011 when she was claiming discrimination
In 2016, 2017, 2018, and even in 2019, Ms. Zawity apparently no longer feels that “religious thing” means the same after the United States Military made changes to their head gear policy.

It is amazing how that “religious thing” lasted long enough for the United States Military to change its policy.
“Now, I’ve been happy lately Thinkin’ about the good things to come And I believe it could be Something good has begun. Oh, I’ve been smilin’ lately Dreamin’ about the world as one And I believe it could be Some day it’s going to come ‘Cause out on the edge of darkness There rides a peace train. Oh, peace train take this country. Come take me home again.”
“Peace Train” was released in 1971, by Cat Stevens who converted to Islam six years later, taking the name Yusuf Islam.
Taking that “peace train” message to heart, Bill Lee held multiple meetings with Tennessee’s Islamists, the second one just days before his inauguration.
Now shoeless Lamar broke bread with them at the Islamic Center of Nashville (ICN) mosque headquarters. Kinda reminds you of Obama’s pandering “bend over and take it” in Saudi Arabia.
Shoeless Lamar
The question we have for Lamar and his cracker-jack team, is the same one we posed for the newly-minted Lee administration – do they know what we know about this mosque, its leadership and the people they are pandering to? And if they don’t know, why not? And if they do know, why are they giving a veneer of legitimacy to the taqiyya of these Islamist leaders?
ICNStill Connected to a Muslim Brotherhood Organizationatioiizatio
The ICN purchased its property in 1982, on what is now 12th Avenue South, with help of a generous donation from Muslim convert Cat Stevens. Some of the mosque’s founding members from Egypt were attending Vanderbilt University.
In 1995, ICN began an open and formal relationship with the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA).
ISNA is one of the 29 organizations specifically named in the 1991 Muslim Brotherhood Explanatory Memorandum detailing the plan of “…dismantling American institutions and turning the U.S. into a Muslim nation.”
ISNA was later named an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation terrorism financing prosecution, the single largest case of its kind in which several individuals were successfully prosecuted for helping to funnel millions to HAMAS, a U.S. designated terrorist organization.
The ICN located at 2515 12th Ave. South, shares the same address with ISNA as listed on taxexemptworld.com
On other documents, the ICN shares a P.O. Box 120953 with ISNA.
The warranty deeds for two of ICN’s four properties – its private Islamic school The Nashville International Academy and the other which appears to be a cemetery, list the P.O. Box 120953 in place of the scratched out of the mosque’s 2515 12th Ave. South address.
The same P.O. Box number was listed on the ICN’s listing on the Tennessee Secretary of State website in 2009.
The same P.O. Box number is also listed on a bank direct deposit form previously posted on the ICN website.
The ICN has also linked itself to ISNA through Nashville community activities. For example, in February 2010, ICN, along with other Nashville mosques, partnered with ISNA for a two day conference titled “Awakening the Leader Within”.
One of the featured ISNA speakers was Louay Safi, Director of Communications and Leadership Development, who has his own “interesting” pedigree. In February 2010, Safi who had been contracted by the DoD to lecture troops at Fort Hood on Islam, was suspended from this work after his association with organizations involved in funding terrorism were documented.
Another notorious individual associated with the ICN is the Little Rock jihadi Carlos Bledsoe from Memphis. When he converted to Islam, he took the name of the former Imam of the ICN, Abdulhakim Mohamed, who is believed to have been his mentor. This Yemeni Imam served as at the ICN from 1999 until 2007.
Abdulhakim Mohamed served the radical Brooklyn Al Farooq mosque for three years until coming to Nashville. His Brooklyn mosque was called the “al-Qaeda mosque” because in the 1980’s and 90’s it was a conduit for al-Qaeda in Afghanistan and had a documented history of raising money for terrorists. It is also the same mosque attended by the “blind sheik” who was convicted in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
This Imam is featured in the “Losing Our Sons” documentary about the radicalization of his mentee, jihadi Carlos Bledsoe who executed Pvt. Andrew Long at the Little Rock Army Recruiting Center. If you haven’t watched it, you should and it can be viewed in its entirety on youtube.
Regarding the U.S. in the film the Imam says, “This country will not be the richest country on earth because it is the worst country on earth.”
Regarding Christians he says, “Christians have lost much of their basics and tenets of faith. The truth of Christianity was lost at its earliest stages.” …Tomorrow they’ll celebrate Christmas assuming that Christ is a god or son of god. There is no greater lie than this. The greatest lie of all time.”
Regarding Jews he says, “Jews believe that everyone created on the face of the earth was only created for their service. They became as vicious as the Pharoah throughout history til today. The true evil today is the existence of one state [Israel].” “Aren’t we this near for a mass battle and war against the Jews? Aren’t they gathering themselves in Palestine?”
This same Imam spent approximately eight years at the University of Madinah in Saudi Arabia, then returned to Yemen to work managing Islamic schools and other educational programs. He was the Imam that helped the ICN launch its private Islamic school called the Nashville International Academy. This school will be eligible to accept state funded school vouchers under Governor Bill Lee’s new program.
ICN lay leaders
The ICN’s spokesman during Imam Abdulhakim Mohamed’s tenure, was Awadh Binhazim whose dawa (proselytizing) organization called “Olive Tree Education,” promoted online writings by Anwar Al Awlaki, a top propagandist and recruiter for al-Qaeda.
Three of the founding members of the American Muslims Advisory Council (AMAC) collaborated with Binhazim; Kamel Daouk was the Olive Tree treasurer, Daoud Abudiab, proselytized with Binhazim, and Rashed Fakhruddin served with Binhazim on the ICN Shura Council. The Shura Council is a group of men considered of high standing in the community who act essentially as an informal “court” to carry out Sharia law.
Now serving as ICN’s president, Fakhruddin has put the ICN dawa on steroids.
Daoud Abudiab went on to chair the board of TIRRC and establish his own dawa-style organization called the Faith and Culture Center.
Binhazim also served as the volunteer Muslim chaplain at Vanderbilt. During a Vanderbilt Muslim Student Association (MSA) program he confirmed that Islamic law mandates capital punishment for homosexuality. When he was asked whether he accepted or rejected the Islamic punishment for homosexuality, Binhazim also confirmed, that “as a Muslim he does not have a choice of whether to accept or reject what Islam teaches.”
Binhazim was president of a CAIR chapter in Texas before coming to Nashville. He and Imam Abdulhakim Mohamed later collaborated in launching a website called muslimnama.org
The next two Imams were trained to push sharia as a complete way of life – for everyone.
Imam Ahmed Mohammed was ICN’s next Imam. He graduated from Al-Ahzar University in Cairo, the institution which stands for the propagation of Islam and Sharia as a complete way of life.
Al-Ahzar is closely tied to the Muslim Brotherhood and is credited with starting the Islamist movement with training from Islamic radicals.
In the spring of 2011, this ICN Imam gave a lecture in Nashville in which he defended the Egyptian police forced virginity tests reportedly performed on female protesters in Tahrir Square that year. He also talked about honor killings and confirmed that they do occur throughout the Muslim world.
In its ongoing mission to radicalize Muslims young and old in Tennessee, during Imam Ahmed Mohammed’s tenure, the ICN sponsored an event at Vanderbilt featuring two American converts to Islam (or as they prefer to call them, “reverts”), Zaid Shakir and Shaykh Hamza Yusuf. They co-founded Zaytuna College, an unaccredited Islamic postsecondary school in the U.S.
True to form, Shakir who says no Muslim can be a terrorist, is a popular speaker with U.S. Muslim Brotherhood organizations such as CAIR, ISNA and the Muslim Students Association.
He professes to the same end goal of the Muslim Brotherhood – to see the “day in which America is a Muslim country ruled by Islamic law.” And consistent with the Muslim Brotherhood’s plan as laid out in its 1991 Explanatory Memorandum, he sees organizing Muslims in this country as the way to accomplish this objective.
Shakir understands the political leverage gained by remaining separate and apart from American society by claiming a religious-based moral superiority. He reinforces this by asserting that “American society ‘is sinful and constitutes open rebellion against Allah.’”
He also tells the college crowds that in the perfect sharia-based society “the kafir won’t be equal with the Muslim. The Christian or the Jew will be a dhimmi [second-class citizen]. They won’t be equal with the Muslim.”
ICN’s current Imam
The current Imam Ossama Bahloul moved from the Islamic Center of Murfreesboro (ICM) where he started in 2008. He is also a graduate of Al-Azhar and has a degree in dawa; his thesis was the establishment of a dawah curriculum aimed at secularists, atheists, Christians, Jews, and Muslims.
Lamar, Fakhruddin, Bahloul and ???
Al-Azhar being the preeminent teaching center of sharia law, authenticated the English translation of sharia law called “The Reliance of the Traveller, A Classic Manual of Islamic Sacred Law.”
It used to be a simple matter of finding the complete volume of “Reliance of the Traveller”(ROT) on-line to read and download but once the kafir public became aware of the book and its contents, a deliberate effort was made by Islamists (?) to eliminate access to what sharia law experts agree sharia law says on all aspects of a Muslim’s life.
A full copy is available under the tab up top “Education Material” on the Dailyrollcall website.
ROT includes just about everything you can think of, for example:
ROT o8.2 “Apostasy from Islam. In such a case, it is obligatory for the caliph to ask him to repent and to return to Islam. If he does, it is accepted from him, but if he refuses, he is immediately killed.”
ROT L10.3 A son and daughter who are siblings “of the same generation as her and of the same strength (N: i.e. both are full or half siblings)… the male receives the portion of two females.”
ROT o17.4 “A husband is entitled to discipline his wife for not giving him his rights (def: m5.1).” ROT m5.1 “It is obligatory for a woman to let her husband have sex with her immediately when: (a) he asks her; (b) at home (c) and she can physically endure it. (d) another condition that should be added is that her marriage payment has been received or deferred to a term not yet expired. As for when sex with her is not possible, such that having it would entail manifest harm to her, then she is not obliged to comply. If she asks him to wait, she is awaited to a maximum of three days.”
ROT m13.3 “It is offensive to send one’s children to a day-care center run by non-Muslims. It is unlawful to send Muslim children to Christian schools, or those which are designedly atheist, though it is not unlawful to send them to public schools in which religion is not mentioned (N: in a way that threatens the students’ belief in Islam).”
Lamar gets same disinformation that is provided to Metro school students
From the pictures it looks like the same person, Dina Sirois, operations director of the ICN, gave Lamar the same talk about the “beliefs and practices in Islam” that she gave to Nashville Meigs Middle School students in October 2018.
An audio recording of Sirois’ October 2018, slide presentation is posted on the The Tennessee Star website.
The ICN has been especially aggressive in its proselytizing of Islam to public school students, Vanderbilt athletic teams, other religious groups and now, politicians. Rashed Fakhruddin, the president of the ICN is also a founding member of the AMAC whose members were specially trained by an organization collaborating with the Muslim Brotherhood plan to proselytize in public schools.
Former ICN Youth director, Sabina Mohyuddin, a founding member of AMAC who now serves as its program manager, attended the meal with Lamar. Per her own presentation in 2013, Mohyuddin cited to several “organizations that help American Muslims stay true to their religious values while being uniquely American.”
Mohyuddin’s choices? The Fiqh Council of North America (FCNA) and the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA).
Along with Al-Ahzar, the FCNA authenticated the English translation of the “Reliance of the Traveller, the Classic Manual of Islamic Sacred Law” cited above. Any number of FCNA members have been arrested, deported and named as unindicted co-conspirators in connection with terrorist activities. All are connected in some manner to the Muslim Brotherhood.
Her other choice, ICNA, was also named in the 1991 Muslim Brotherhood plan for North America and is known for its aggressive dawa in public schools.
AMAC continues to perpetuate the lie of the “anti-sharia” bill to justify its proselytizing of Islam, its aggressive political activity and its efforts to censor and stop all critical speech as “Islamophobic.”
What they call the “anti-sharia bill” was actually a material support bill based on the jihad perpetrated by Carlos Bledsoe. The bill language specifically was addressed to individuals supporting the commission of a terrorist act and specifically said that it did not apply to “the peaceful practice of any religion.” The bill defined the term “sharia,” precisely the way jihadist terrorists define it because the bill was directed at criminalizing support for terrorist acts.
We can only guess that the real reason AMAC didn’t like the bill is because there’s only one definition of sharia used by both violent jihadis and political jihadis. So who is hijacking whose religion?
Remember – They Are Political Leftists First and Theology-Perverting Clergy SecondSharia-supporting clergy in Tennessee are rampant in all denominations, including Catholics, Protestants and Jews. They push the interfaith propaganda of how we all pray to the same god and all are part of the “family of Abraham.”
The Pope has permitted Islamic prayers and reading from the Koran in the Vatican. Catholic Charities of Tennessee, paid handsomely by the federal government for their “charitable” work, has filled our cities with Islamists who want all manner of sharia-adherent accommodations in the public arena.
Catholic Charities of Tennessee can also take credit for helping sharia-adherent Islamists become politically equipped with sufficient population density to try and elect their first candidate for the Nashville Metro Council with their “My Muslim Vote” campaign.
Starting in 2011, Nashville’s leftist Jewish leaders Avi Poster and Irwin Venick, organized the first “Family of Abraham” event. It was held at the uber-liberal uber-elitist private University School. (This private school was started years ago by Vanderilt University). The program featured a speaker from the Reform Judaism Religious Action Center (RAC), an organization all about social justice. Reform Judaism is the most extreme liberal branch of the religious group.
To get an idea of what the reform Jews care about, in 2017, the program director of the RAC along with other clergy, helped bless the opening of a DC Planned Parenthood center.
The next “Family of Abraham” event was organized by Jewish and Methodist leaders in Nashville and held at the West End United Methodist Church in Nashville. This time, they featured Muslim Brotherhood’s ISNA (Islamic Society of North America) National Director, Office of Interfaith and Community Alliances, Sayyid Syeed.
ISNA says the United Methodist Church (UMC) is its ally – “both working together in campaigning for social justice, peace and equity.’” This 2010 statement from ISNA was made in reference to the Chicago area UMC call to support the UMC’s involvement in the BDS (boycott, divestment & sanctions) campaign from Israel.
Nashville’s Temple Ohabai Shalom’s assistant Rabbi Shana Mackler and UMC Rev. Judi Hoffman, were part of the 2012, interfaith panel hosted by Lipscomb University which featured the Islamic Network Group (ING) presentation on women’s rights and Shariah.
The ING, a group affiliated with CAIR, ISNA and the dawah-centric ICNA (Islamic Circle of North America), was brought to Tennessee by AMAC to train them on how to go into schools to talk about Islam. Hijab-wearing Kurdish refugee Jihan Abdulla, sister of politically aggressive Islamist Kasar Abdulla, was quoted as saying she had more rights than American women. Go figure that one.
Rabbi Mackler is a proud supporter of Planned Parenthood, helping the organization to use her temple to hold its fundraiser in 2015. She makes no bones about performing illegal gay marriages at her house of worship – “The issue of gay marriage is something that really hits home for Shana. When she was in college, her father came out to her.”
Given her uber progressive and Islamist-apologist stances, it’s no surprise that rabbi Mackler spoke at this year’s Nashville Women’s March vowing to stand alongside AMAC leader Zulfat Suara who has openly embraced Jew-haters Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar.
Remember also, that the Women’s March was started by Linda Sarsour and Tamika Mallory who have come under fire for supporting Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, a notorious anti-Semite who has praised Hitler and described Jews as “satanic.” They also can’t get past their inbred anti-Semitism to say whether the State of Israel and its Jews have a right to exist.
The Nashville Women’s March is listed as a chapter of the Sarsour/Mallory march organization.
Mackler may have proved herself to be one of the most outrageous examples of having turned against her own people in favor of Islamist embracers of Jew-haters.
The rabbi and her husband, James Mackler, are endorsing Zulfat Suara for the Metro Nashville Council.
This is important to know for many reasons. The main reason is that James Mackler, uber progressive Democrat, is running for Lamar Alexander’s seat. Being the obedient “company man,” Mackler withdrew from the last Senate race after Phil Bredesen announced that he would run.
As if the world of religion and politics couldn’t get any more upside-down or any more sinister.
At least two deaths have occurred in the Dover Tennessee compound of the Muslims of America called Islamville. A young man, in his thirties, and a 14 yr old boy.
Muslims under the direction of their leader, Sheik Mubarak Gilani from Lahore Pakistan, state they are “a premier institute for the study of Holy Qur’an, Islamic traditions and Sufic Sciences.” Keep in mind, this is the same Sheikh Gilani that ordered the beheading of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, and the same terrorist group identified by the FBI
The ideology reigning over these Muslim of America compounds is based on the “El Gilani Methodology”, which boasts is responsible for curing many mental and “incurable” diseases. “The El Gillani Methodology (EGM), is proven to cure so-called incurable mental and physical disorders through the use of a standardized and scientifically tested system that heals disease of the mind, body and soul by utilizing selected portions of the Holy Quran and other supplications, as well as use of the projection of the visual image of the personal names of Almighty God, Allah, and His Holy Last Messenger, Muhammad, peace be upon him.”
Many residents of “Islamville” in Dover TN have had, or continue to use Roods Creek RD in Hancock NY, “Islamberg” aka The International Quranic Open University as an address. This is the “campus” on higher learning of the EGM.

This is Jamil Smith, a resident of Islamberg, who claims to be a doctor who has witnessed the power of this method, curing a young man who was suffering from insomnia, and “sins”.
Now, understanding deaths are an everyday occurrence, including young people, the question might be asked what caused the death of a 14 yr old boy at Vanderbilt Childrens Hospital, who lived in Islamville, and why was his body transferred to another Muslim of America compound in South Carolina.
A check with the Davidson County Clerk was unable to provide a death certificate. It is feasible the boy died from illness, but questions remain whether the ideology practiced in the compound he resided, was first used to try and cure him.
Looking back to last year, a raid on a compound In Mew Mexico of a similar type compound, 5 Muslims were charged with endangering the welfare of children, and Sirhajj Wahajj Jr, was charged with the death of his 3 year old son who instead of receiving his medications for seizures was subjected to “rituals”, very similar to that of the El-Gilani method.
Are the residents of Islamville in Dover TN entrenched in the same Sufi mysticism other compounds are? Are deaths occurring to residents due to illnesses or the attempt to cure using the “El-Gilani” method?
Finally, these compounds exist under the guise of “religion”, but in reality they exist because we are afraid. Afraid of being sued, and afraid of being labeled. What we have witnessed in America, is once you are stamped with words like Islamophobe, bigot, racist or hater, you can lose your job, your business, your friends, and family. Islamists in America have learned the power of words, and are eager to label anyone that speaks out against , or tells the truth about them.
Perhaps these deaths were natural, but given the background and ideology of those that live on these compounds, maybe it is time to put fear and political correctness behind, and call for investigations.
On Nov 19, 2010, a
federal court ruling on the status of the Council On America Islamic Relations
(CAIR) and other Muslim Brotherhood organizations being designated co
conspirators in the Holy Land Foundation trial was unsealed.
U.S District Court Judge Jorge Solis, in Dallas TX cited there
was “ample evidence” that CAIR participated in a “criminal conspiracy” led by
the Holy Land Foundation, Hamas’s main fundraising arm in the U.S.
So why, 9 years later is this important? CAIR , in its
continued effort to insinuate its ideology via intimidation and frivolous
lawsuits , is once again attempting to strong arm school boards to include
false and misleading information on Islam in our textbooks.
As CAIR rants about any criticism being “Islamophobic”,
Americans need to know who CAIR is, which in turn, will then shed light on why
CAIR wants to silence critics by using the term Islamophobia.
In 2007, U.S. prosecutors first named CAIR an unindicted
co-conspirator in a criminal scheme led by the Holy Land Foundation to funnel
more than $12 million to Hamas suicide bombers and their families. A jury in
2008 convicted the charity and its leaders on all 108 felony counts. Then assistant U.S. Attorney Jim Jacks stated
“CAIR
has been identified by the government at trial as a participant in an ongoing
and ultimately unlawful conspiracy to support a designated terrorist
organization – a conspiracy from which CAIR never withdrew”
In preparation for the Holy Land Foundation trial, the FBI raided homes of known Hamas members which resulted in a treasure trove of documents which included a plan for the eventual take over of America titled “An Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Group in North America”, which was presented, and accepted into evidence in this trial.
Nihad Awad
Other documents introduced by the government showing CAIR and its founding chairman Omar Ahmad have operated as key members of Hamas’ U.S. wing, known as the “Palestine Committee.” In addition, FBI wiretaps and agent testimony have placed both Ahmad and CAIR’s acting executive director – Nihad Awad – at a secret meeting 2 decades ago with Hamas leaders in Philadelphia. Meeting in a hotel room, participants hatched a scheme to disguise payments to Hamas suicide bombers and their families as charity.
Stop. Read that
again.
CAIR’s acting executive director – Nihad Awad – at a secret meeting 2 decades ago with Hamas leaders in Philadelphia. Meeting in a hotel room, participants hatched a scheme to disguise payments to Hamas suicide bombers and their families as charity.
This is the same Nihad Awad who publicly urged Muslims in Tennessee to attend a school board meeting on April 2 in Sullivan County Tennessee to face “Islamophobic opposition”.
This is also the same Nihad Awad who claims he is “a supporter of the Hamas movement”. Hamas is a designated terrorist organization here in the U.S.
This isn’t about fair representation of Islam in public
school textbooks.
This is about power, infiltration and indoctrination.
The following, which is most revealing and threatening, is an excerpt from the above mentioned “Explanatory Memorandum” that was used as evidence in the Holy Land Foundation trial.
On March 26 2019, in a landmark case in California, CAIR was removed from its association with the San Diego Unified School System, after CAIR was found to be running a discriminatory, unconstitutional propaganda program in its schools.
According to this Clarion Project article, the program in question gave Muslim students special privileges and gave CAIR the power to change the district curriculum to make sure Islam was looked upon more favorably. Sound familiar?
CAIR came to
Tennessee to silence Jane Thomas, a Board of Education member who opposed specific
false information in the “My World” textbook.
Muslims want you to believe their god is the same as the Christian God.
Mrs. Thomas disagrees, and CAIR wants her hushed. CAIR wants no opposition to their version of
religion, despite the facts presented within their own doctrine. While Allah may mean god in Arabic, Allah is
not the Christian God, yet Muslims are determined to make you believe it is.
CAIR came to Tennessee to accuse Jane Thomas of being
Islamophobic, and to make sure those present at the meeting would isolate her, and
after seeing her being publicly chastised, they would be afraid to support her ,
or speak out.
CAIR, who is designated an un-indicted co conspirator in funding Hamas suicide bombers to kill
people, and then paying their families as gratitude, has no place in our
country, let alone deciding what the curriculum is in our own schools.
Don’t be concerned with what Jane Thomas says, be concerned
a foreign, corrupt organization wants her silenced.
Muslims across America are demanding Islamophobia be stopped
by creating a false rise in what they consider anti-Muslim rhetoric. Islamophobia is a word manufactured by the
Muslim Brotherhood in an effort to invent a false sense of victimhood.
Islamophobia is defined by Muslims as those who hold an irrational fear of
Islam, and is seen as a mental deficiency.
The word itself means a fear of Islam, but the word has
morphed into meaning a hatred of Muslims, racism, or bigotry. It encompasses
negative words that cause discomfort and embarrassment, thereby causing people
to think twice about speaking negatively about Islam and Muslims. Being labelled a hater or racist (which Islam
is not a race) can get you fired, lose family and friends, or lose
business. All fears of the American
people.
Islamic organizations like the Council on American Islamic
Relations (CAIR) have created a sense of urgency in hopes the government will
step in by criminalizing what they consider hate speech. Incidents have been
fabricated to make it appear there is a spike in anti-Muslim sentiment which in
turn they say promotes violence, vandalism and hate.
Aside from the fear of being labeled an islamophobe, people
are shying away from anything that may be construed as islamophobic and instead
flooding to hear Muslims preach about Islam, its peaceful and loving nature,
its tolerance of all things sinful, and how compatible sharia law is to the
constitution (all untrue)
HOWEVER, the most important point is not about Islamophobia
but rather how it is being used by Muslims. Their efforts to end Islamophobia
have instead created a national security risk.
Law enforcement and our military have become so delicate to
Muslim communities for fear of losing federal funding or their pensions they
are cooperating with Muslim communities conducting business in a way that
doesn’t offend the Muslims. Because of the demands by Muslims to further their
agenda and our political correctness, some of the outcomes of these
implications are:
The purging of relevant, factual training that includes who
terrorist organizations and their supporters are within the US
The termination of surveillance in mosques
The end of profiling
The ceasing of
standard search procedures, such as canines to detect explosives
The barring of our military being able to identify the enemy
and annihilate them
The altering of rules of engagement replaced with recall and
retreat
The cessation of interrogation tools that are effective but
are seen as offensive and demeaning
All because Muslims label these Islamophobic.
All of these things we have viewed as small incremental
changes, are now the result of our law enforcement agencies calling Islamic
terrorism acts of domestic extremism.
By not immediately designating killings such as San
Bernardino, Chattanooga, Fort Hood or Garland TX as Islamic terrorism, they are
falling into criminal categories rather than terrorist ones. We are becoming
desensitized to the reality of an enemy who is fighting in the name of Islam
that has an ideology that is dismantling and destroying America.
It isn’t Islamophobia that is dangerous, it is those calling for its demise who are
*This article was taken from a chapter from The Muslim Brotherhood: The Threat in our Backyard, a book written by Cathy Hinners, founder of Dailyrollcall.com
It’s looking more and more like 2016 was the start of TN’s American Muslim Advisory Council (AMAC) love affair with anti-Semites. 2016 was the year that anti-Semite Linda Sarsour was featured at an AMAC event. That same year Ilhan Omar and her radically progressive anti-Semite defender, Pramila Jayapal were brought into AMAC’s circle of friends.
2016, was the year Omar was elected to the Minnesota state legislature and Jayapal moved up from the Washington state legislature to the U.S. House of Representatives.
This is the same year that AMAC’s Board member, Somali agitator Mohamed Shukri Hassan, welcomed Ilhan Omar and Pramila Jayapal to a home-based gathering in East Nashville.
Shukri Hassan met Jayapal and Omar in Nashville
Shukri Hassan attended the January 10, 2019, meeting with Governor-elect Lee.
Like Omar, Shukri Hassan got into the U.S. via the refugee resettlement program. Both of them grew up benefitting from the goodies generous Americans make available to refugees. Yet both of them are steeped in disdain for this America and American conservatives who ascribe to Judeo-Christian principles.
In fact, sharia adherent Omar and Hassan hate us so much that they have devoted their lives to changing our country.
Before launching her legislative career, Ilhan Omar was a board member of the Muslim Brotherhood’s CAIR-Minnesota organization. Shukri Hassan was president of the Muslim Student Association (MSA) while he was a student at TN State University. The MSA was one of the first Muslim Brotherhood organizations established in the U.S.
Being an anti-Semite comes naturally to sharia and Muslim Brotherhood followers.
CAIR’s connections to U.S. designated terrorist group HAMAS have been established with credible evidentiary documentation in the Holy Land Foundation terrorism prosecution. Since its founding, HAMAS has remained committed to a singular purpose – the elimination of the State of Israel and genocide for its Jews through violent jihad.
A lawsuit revived in federal court last year has exposed details about the connections of the U.S. HAMAS support network and certain Islamist organizations including the Islamic Association for Palestine (IAP). It was the leaders of IAP who founded CAIR.
AMAC’s Shukri Hassan arrived in Tennessee in 2006. His mother was the first to arrive in the U.S. as a refugee and was resettled in Georgia. After Shukri Hassan and his six siblings were able to join her, they all relocated to Tennessee.
Shortly after finishing high school, Shukri Hassan joined TIRRC (TN Immigrant & Refugee Rights Coalition) to learn the ins and outs of being a leftist agitator and working as a “Welcoming TN Coordinator” speaking to Chambers of Commerce and Rotary clubs.
At the same time, Shukri Hassan worked as an Outreach Coordinator for the Metro Public Health Department as a caseworker for the now-defunct Center for Refugees & Immigrants of Tennessee (CRIT).
CRIT was originally named the Somali Community Center but changed its name after its Executive Director, Abdirizak Hassan pled guilty to federal grant fraud. The federal charge relates back to his indictment in 2001 for felony illegal banking. Prior to serving as ED of the Somali Community Center/CRIT, Hassan ran a hawala money changing business which counter-terrorism investigators was linked to a bank service linked to al-Qaeda.
Before Shukri Hassan began serving as a Board member and the Program Director for AMAC, he took a fellowship with AMAC’s sister organization, the American Center for Outreach (ACO). The ACO was started by a Kurdish refugee who was a former lobbyist for TIRRC.
After she left, ACO was led by former CAIR director, Paul “Iesa” Galloway.
AMAC may not call itself CAIR, but it operates same way using the same tactics.
U.S. Rep. Pramila Jayapal who traveled with Ilhan Omar to the house party in East Nashville, has a special soft spot for Somalis like Omar and Shukri Hassan.
Before she got into politics, first as a state Senator and then polluting the U.S. House of Representatives with her radical progressive politics, she led a leftist organization called the Hate Free Zone Campaign of Washington (state). In 2003, under her leadership, the organization stopped the deportation of Somali criminals and visa overstayers in the U.S.
Incredibly, the judge in the case remarked that “the government had provided no concrete evidence to support the notion that al-Qaida is active in Somalia, or that there is any connection at all between the Somalis and terrorism.”
FBI statistics show that the district Ilhan Omar represents in Congress, has the highest rate of terrorist recruitment in the United States.
Like Omar, Jayapal is a strident and shrill opponent of President Trump and his policies about importing more refugees from terror-prone countries.
Jayapal is currently the co-chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) which Ilhan Omar joined as soon as she was elected to the U.S. House.
It was through the arm-twisting efforts of the CPC and the Black Congressional Caucus that forced Pelosi to allow the anti-semitism resolution to be highjacked away from Omar’s relentless Jew-hating speech so that she and her fellow Islamists somehow became the victims.
Only 23 Republicans – none from Tennessee by the way – had the moral and political fortitude to vote against the resolution.
Across the board, Tennessee Republican House members voted FOR a resolution that legitimized the myth of Islamophobia, avoided any condemnation of Ilhan Omar, and deflected from the bigger problem of anti-Semitism.
Tennessee Republicans that voted FOR the resolution (because they were too scared to be called racists?) – Tim Burchett, Scott DeJarlais, Chuck Fleischmann, Mark Green, David Kustoff, Phil Roe and John Rose.
Do these guys have any idea what’s really going on in their own state?????
This past week, Christians rushed to mosques and rallies to support Muslim communities as the horrific event in New Zealand came to light. One such rally was held in Nashville TN, by the American Muslim Advisory Council (AMAC)
However, the hypocrisy of members of AMAC, specifically the chairwoman, Zulfat Suara, is astounding. Suara, who is running for a Metro Nashville member at large seat, proudly proclaims to be from Nigeria, where she visited just a few months ago.
Ms. Suara excitedly describes her trip to her home country, even commenting on royalty that runs in her family. All this, regardless of the last few months throughout the African country, hundreds of Christians have been slaughtered by Muslim tribes, some while attending church services, others being gunned down as they fled from their homes that were set on fire.
In this WKRN Nashville news channel interview from Sunday, March 17, Ms. Sulfat states they are there to support and pray for the Muslim victims in New Zealand. and standing with other faith members to not tolerate the violent rhetoric.
How is it a self professed woman of faith completely ignore the death of hundreds of Christians in her own country, especially after a recent visit? Ms. Sulfat is the same woman who accepted an award for her “interfaith” work from the Muslim Brotherhood front group the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA).
Ms. Suara is the same woman that insinuates herself into various religious and social women’s organizations promoting a narrative that she is a true follower of Islam, which is tolerant, accepting and peaceful. Yet in October of 2018, she declared all woman that support Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh should go to hell!
On March 27, the American Muslim Advisory Council (AMAC) led by Ms. Suara will host Muslim Day on the Hill in Nashville TN with the goal of meeting with Tennessee state legislators.
Perhaps those Ms. Suara meets with should ask her why she prays for Muslims being killed but fails to pray for Christians being executed in her own homeland.
Her silence is deafening, her hypocrisy is appalling.
What occurred in Christchurch New Zealand, was a horrific, heinous act against humanity. The response that immediately followed, by scores of left leaning media outlets and organizations was the new trend..to harshly criticize those offering thoughts and prayers, and labeling it Islamophobia rather than what is was, murder. Murder is against the law, Islamophobia is not..yet.
The aftermath of crime is the focus of this article, not the event itself.
Crimes of every nature occur every second in America, to every type of person, regardless of their race, religion, or sexual orientation. It seems though, any crime that has happened to a Muslim, is based on Islamophobia only. Islamophobia has become a weapon used by Muslims to attempt to silence any and all types of criticism, and exposure. Islamophobia, when first coined, was meant to be a “fear of Islam”.
Since that definition didn’t have the desired impact or outcome, the term was redefined to mean Islamophobia is rooted in racism, and is caused by hatred and discrimination. Changing the meaning now encompasses more than criticism or being exposed, it means anything that occurs to a Muslim, or is negatively spoken about Islam is Islamophobia . They want you to believe Islamophobia equates with killing.
By promoting the false narrative that exposing or speaking out against Islam leads to violence, or death, Muslims are hopeful pressure by those that embrace and support them will eventually lead to laws similar to those in Middle Eastern countries.
In Egypt, Counter-terrorism and Protest laws are used as aguise to arrest those using the internet to criticize their government, but Blasphemy or apostasy laws are applicable if one dares to denounce Islam or Sharia law.
While it is difficult for many to wrap their head around Muslims believe Islam is superior and meant to dominate, just as many understand the end goal, which is the return of the global caliphate, where in fact, Islam is dominate.
With the incident occurring in New Zealand, supposedly at the hands of an anti-Muslim deranged man, Islamic groups here in America did not waste time urging Americans to fight against Islamophobia. The Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR aka Hamas) pointed to research showing a rise in anti-Muslim sentiment since President Trump was elected. CAIR National Executive Director Nihad said President Trump needs to assure Muslims that they are protected and that he will not tolerate violence against their community.
Of course, this statement is not true, since many reports of violence or harassment against Muslims have been proven to be bogus, with Muslims often committing the actual crime themselves to intentionally up the statistics on crime against Muslims. President Trump is working to protect all Americans.
Besides the false reports (this is only a few), the FBI’s statistics from 2017 shows Jews the most victimized, not Muslims.
Another group always seeking attention, is the American Muslim Advisory Council (AMAC) based in Nashville TN. Their statement regarding the New Zealand mosque shooting blamed President Trump, and the Islamophobia “200 million dollar industry”. A side note about AMAC..its current chairwoman, Zulfat Suara, a Nigerian, who just spent time in her homeland, has failed to condemn and call for the end of violence Nigerian Muslims just committed against Nigerian Christians by slaughtering them in their places of worship over the last few days.
Zulfat Suara on the left
The obvious attempt to promote the false story only Muslims are vilified and massacred just shows the intentional deceitfulness of their message. It’s a disgrace hundreds of real pious people are being killed and the media and Muslims only find their story worth time.
It’s time to see “Islamophobia” for what it is. Non-existent and a lie.
Straight lines and connections coming at us in every direction!
It starts with Gov-elect Bill Lee’s second meeting with the TN American Muslim Advisory Council (AMAC) just days before his inauguration.
The photo from that meeting included Samar Ali which was noted to be a little strange since she has not been known to publicly affiliate with the AMAC hijab wearing crowd. It’s true that even though Samar was born in the U.S. and raised in Waverly, Tennessee, she desperately clings to a Middle Eastern identity.
When Samar was an undergraduate student at Vanderbilt, Ali co-founded the Middle Eastern Students Association because, as she said, “I will always be Arab and I will always be American and I will always be Muslim… My parents always taught us to never forget where we came from and to never forget where we are now.”
While Ali identifies herself and her family as Arabs and Muslim, she reserves the American identity part for herself. Her mother immigrated to the U.S. from Syria and her father is a Palestinian from Ramallah, the city where Yasser Arafat, leader of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) established his headquarters.
From its founding, the PLO was committed to the destruction of the State of Israel and only decided to follow a political course when acts of terrorism against civilians didn’t achieve the desired outcome.
Ali’s father, Subhi Ali appears to have brought his Jew-hatred with him when he came to the U.S.
Not much is known about Subhi Ali’s political activities prior to him joining the leadership of the Jerusalem Fund, an organization headquartered in D.C., that pushes an aggressive anti-Israel agenda. Subhi Ali joined the Jerusalem Fund in 2000, became Vice-President in 2004 serving alongside its founder, Hisham Sharabi.
After Sharabi died, Subhi Ali became President of the Board in 2005, a position he still retains.
Sharabi was a supporter of “radical Palestinian terror groups,” and advocated a Palestinian “armed struggle” if necessary, to end “Israel’s occupation of the West Bank and Gaza.” He described HAMAS as “the true fida’i (self-sacrifice) resistance in Palestine since the outbreak of the Palestinian intifada.
In 1997, the U.S. State Department designated HAMAS as a foreign terrorist organization.
Sharabi was also a board member of WISE (World and Islam Studies Enterprise) which was incorporated and led by Sami al-Arian who was sent to prison in 2006, and deported 9 years later because of his leadership of the U.S.-designated terrorist organization Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ).
WISE was funded by the Muslim Brotherhood’s IIIT (International Institute of Islamic Thought). Tarik Hamdi, identified as an officer/staff member of WISE, is listed in a federal affidavit as providing material support to Al-Qaeda, Bin Laden and the PIJ. He left WISE to work for IIIT.
WISE served as the U.S. money-receiving front for PIJ and while Sharabi was a board member, funneled payments to the PIJ martyrs through the Islamic International Arab Bank (Arab Bank).
Later on, Samar Ali was an intern in Amman, Jordan, for the Arab Bank during the time that a lawsuit had been filed against the bank alleging that the bank was managing the funding of payments to the families of Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) martyrs.
As early as 2003, the Jerusalem Fund was labeling Israel an apartheid state guilty of ethnic cleansing (of Palestinians) – just one of the many lies told by political propagandists seeking to delegitimize and target the Jewish homeland.
The Jeruslaem Fund’s former Executive Director Yousef Munayyer was explicit in his anti-Israel pro-BDS (boycott, divestment and sanctions) advocacy. When asked by Sean Hannity, Munayyer did not answer the question, “Is HAMAS a terrorist organization?”
Under Subhi Ali’s leadership, the Jerusalem Fund has intensified it’s anti-Israel attacks with help from Omar Barghouti, co-founder of the Boycott, Divestment & Sanctions (BDS) campaign against Israel.
The most important thing to understand about BDS is that it is being used to make anti-Semitism once again acceptable in civil society.
Today’s BDS is fueled by anti-Semitic rhetoric from agitators who openly attack Zionism, the movement that helped to establish the State of Israel. BDS’ers deceptively embed their purported objectives in language about social justice and human rights, but at the same time, call for a genocide of the Jewish people. Rallying around their mantra “Palestine will be free, from the river to the sea” BDS’ers want no Israel or Jews to exist between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Ocean.
Jew-haters like Linda Sarsour, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib proudly push BDS. They are the Jew-haters publicly and personally embraced by the TN American Muslim Advisory Council and its chairman, Zulfat Suara, here, here, here and here.
Samar is picking up the threads of her father’s anti-Jew agenda by helping anti-Semite embracer Zulfat Suara, get elected to the Metro Nashville City Council.

At least one Tennessee conservative thinks Samar Ali is a “superstar.”
