Emails Expose Terror-Tied CAIR’s Ongoing Influence in San Diego Schools

64

San Diego County has historically been a Republican stronghold. The infiltration of our institutions by dangerous, treacherous actors knows no party. No one and nothing is safe once targeted by powerful, wealthy jihad groups. The individual must stand up and fight.

Why hasn’t Attorney General Jeff Sessions pursued the “mountain of evidence” and prosecuted these traitorous terror-tied groups (CAIR, ISNA, MSA et al)?

I applaud the parents fighting the CAIR scourge.

Citizens for Quality Education-San Diego

“The philosophy of the school room in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next.” Abraham Lincoln

Motion for Preliminary Injunction filed

It was disingenuous of the SDUSD Board of Trustees and the Superintendent to claim they would be severing their formal relationship with CAIR as well as rescinding the “anti-Islamophobic anti-bullying” policy at the public school board meeting last July 2017.

Due to the great research effort by Freedom of Conscience Defense Fund (FCDF), the district’s “fake news” was exposed. Emails obtained through lawful open records requests revealed Superintendent Cynthia Marten met with CAIR officials that very same day to discuss the District’s continued alliance.

Charles LiMandri, FCDF Chief Counsel states: “The superintendent and school board cannot hide behind a veneer of good intentions. Their actions and policies run afoul of the fundamental constitutional mandate of government neutrality in religion. […] SDUSD has a constitutional obligation to keep divisive forces like CAIR outside of its schools. Our clients, as well as the vast majority of the San Diego parents, are deeply concerned that District officials would continue to partner with CAIR secretly.”

CQE-SD ASKS COURT TO ENJOIN SAN DIEGO UNIFIED’S SUPPOSEDLY RESCINDED “ANTI-ISLAMOPHOBIA” INITIATIVE
Disclosed Records Show District’s Superintendent and Board Are Continuing to Partner with Notorious Islamic Organization After Claiming to Have Rescinded the Initiative at July 2017 Board Meeting

SAN DIEGO, Calif. – Yesterday, CQE-SD, along with five families and the San Diego Asian Americans for Equality Foundation, filed a comprehensive motion for a preliminary injunction with hundreds of pages of supporting evidence in federal court in their case against the San Diego Unified School District and its superintendent and board of education. In April 2017, the SDUSD Board of Education adopted an “anti-Islamophobia initiative” to combat the purported bullying of Muslim students and their families.

The Initiative, which was developed in partnership with the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), singles out Muslim students for special accommodations, calls for changes to school curricula to make it more favorable to Islam, and allows CAIR officials into classrooms to teach students about Islam and “how to be allies” to Muslim students. The District purchased thousands of dollars of CAIR’s recommended teaching materials, which were then distributed to the schools. In May 2017, the plaintiffs sued, alleging that both the Initiative’s religious favoritism and the District empowerment of CAIR to indoctrinate students violate the Constitution and multiple state laws, including the Unruh Civil Rights Act and California’s Education Code.

In response to the lawsuit, the SDUSD Board purportedly rescinded the Initiative at a July 2017 board meeting and adopted a policy that focuses on protecting all students. Despite publicly claiming to have severed ties with CAIR, documents disclosed in a public records request show that District officials, including Superintendent Cynthia Marten, met with CAIR officials the very same day of the board meeting to continue the Initiative in a less formal, restructured format.

The Freedom of Conscience Defense Fund (FCDF) is representing the plaintiffs. Yesterday’s motion is asking the court to halt the Initiative and shut down CAIR’s involvement in the District.

As stated in FCDF’s brief:
This case is a tale of two iniquities that—absent an injunction—continue to fester in the San Diego Unified School District. First, in light of Defendants’ “anti-Islamophobia initiative,” it is a far graver sin for a bully to tug on a Muslim student’s hijab than it is to knock off a Jewish student’s kippah. Second, Defendants have chosen to politicize the schoolchildren entrusted to their care rather than cut ties with a notorious sectarian association. Defendants insist, however, that their “holistic” campaign against the purported “Islamophobic” children in District schools is simply part of their efforts “to protect all students from bullying.” Not only is that illogical; it is Orwellian. Indeed, to paraphrase Animal Farm, a high school English class staple, Defendants are merely claiming that all students are equal, but some students are more equal than others.

Charles LiMandri, FCDF’s president and chief counsel, said:
SDUSD is one of the most diverse school districts in America. But our Nation is not divided by race or religion but united by the sacred principles enshrined in the Constitution. Among these principles are government neutrality in religion and the right of every American, including schoolchildren, to equality under the law. Unfortunately, this politically correct ‘anti-Islamophobia initiative’ runs roughshod over those principles.

LiMandri added:
The superintendent and school board cannot hide behind a veneer of good intentions. Their actions and policies run afoul of the fundamental constitutional mandate of government neutrality in religion. For the Supreme Court has made clear that government cannot affiliate itself with any religious doctrine or organization and it cannot discriminate among persons on the basis of their religious beliefs and practices.

In addition to the Initiative’s discriminatory effect on schoolchildren, the parents are challenging the District’s long-time relationship with CAIR, which has been designated as a terrorist organization and identified by the federal government as a Muslim Brotherhood front group. According to FCDF’s brief:

Despite public statements to the contrary, Defendants have strengthened their partnership with the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). CAIR’s religious agenda is irrefutable; its divisiveness is undeniable. And strikingly, it prowls the schools not as a wolf in sheep’s clothing—in Justice Scalia’s words, “this wolf comes as a wolf.” Yet the wool is not being pulled over Defendants’ eyes. Instead, they remain willfully blind to the “clearest command” of the Establishment Clause: “One religious denomination cannot be officially preferred over another.”

LiMandri concluded:
SDUSD has a constitutional obligation to keep divisive forces like CAIR outside of its schools. Our clients, as well as the vast majority of the San Diego parents, are deeply concerned that District officials would continue to partner with CAIR secretly. But it’s not surprising—CAIR officials themselves have testified that they have a religious obligation to try to convert schoolchildren to Islam, and they’ll stop at nothing to do so. Unfortunately for them, we’re equally committed to defending the Constitution in response.

SDUSD has 14 days to respond to the motion. A court hearing on the motion will likely take place within two months.

Emails Expose CAIR’s Ongoing Influence in San Diego Schools

by John Rossomando, IPT News,February 21, 2018

San Diego’s school board continues to work with the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and enact its recommended anti-bullying curriculum despite a July vote withdrawing from a partnership with the Islamist group.

A motion for a preliminary injunction filed in federal court Tuesday seeks to put an end to that ongoing work.

The Freedom of Conscience Defense Fund (FCDF) sued the San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) last May on behalf of several San Diego parents, arguing that CAIR – as a religious organization – cannot steer public school curriculum and programming without violating the First Amendment’s Establishment Clause separating religion and state, not to mention California state law.

Those concerns led school district attorneys to recommend breaking off an anti-bullying partnership with CAIR last July. But school district emails obtained by the FCDF as part of the litigation make it clear CAIR’s curriculum and program recommendations remain in play.

“Despite public statements to the contrary, Defendants have strengthened their partnership with” CAIR, the motion said. The school district is “delegating government power to a religious organization, and spending taxpayer money to advance a sectarian agenda.”

The policy creates an unequal situation that makes it a “graver sin” to rip off a Muslim girl’s hijab than to knock off a Jewish boy’s kippah [skullcap], the motion said.

CAIR officials played a significant role crafting the anti-bullying/anti-Islamophobia program enacted by the school board last April. CAIR guided its development and implementation, internal district emails, obtained by the FCDF through a freedom of information request, show.

“Defendants contend that Muslim students are feeling particularly vulnerable. Yet there is not a scintilla of evidence that ‘Islamophobia’ – that is the pure hatred of Muslim students – runs rampant in District schools,” FCDF said in its motion. “Instead, Defendants have relied solely on specious student surveys and testimonials that CAIR had provided as part of its lobbying for the Initiative.”

SDUSD statistics explicitly mention only two bullying incidents that involved Muslim students were reported in 2015-16 among the entire 130,000-student school district. By contrast, 11 of the 18 students reported religious bullying cases targeted Jews. Three cases involved students whose religion was not specified in the incident reports.

The school district’s emails “reveal the shocking depth of CAIR’s infiltration into the second largest school district in California and the willfully blind complicity of the district’s superintendent and school board,” said FCDF Executive Director Daniel Piedra.

School district spokesman Andrew Sharp did not respond to requests for comment Wednesday.

Last July, school board officials voted to discontinue plans to establish a formal relationship with CAIR under pressure from the FCDF’s lawsuit. But San Diego schools continued to implement the CAIR-influenced anti-bullying/anti-Islamophobia program.

For example, Superintendent Cindy Marten invited members of CAIR’s Education Committee to meet with her and Sharp a day later.

The CAIR Education Committee included CAIR San Diego board member Lallia Allali, CAIR San Diego Executive Director Hanif Mohebi and Allali’s husband CAIR California board member Taha Hassane, along with non-Muslim allies.

CAIR Education Committee leader Linda Williams told Marten in a July 28 email that the action steps enacted at the April 4 meeting were “still in effect.”

Two weeks later, Sharp asked Williams to send him the “Text Kits and Resources to Address Islamophobia” that the committee put together. It included a list of books Allali had recommended in the spring. Williams called it the “very beginnings of what could grow into a robust ‘Toolkit’ for Teachers, Counselors, and Administrators.”

“We are delighted that the Curriculum departments will be reviewing these resources for potential use in our District!” Williams wrote. “We are glad to support the District’s efforts in this way, and we look forward to further connections!”

Allali’s book list included:

· Rashad’s Ramadan and Eid Al Fitr, which includes a chapter called “Thinking About Allah“;

· Does my Head Look Big in This?, which tells the story of a Muslim teenager who decides to wear a headscarf;

· Golden Domes and Silver Lanterns: A Muslim Book of Colors, about Ramadan.

CAIR’s lobbying for a program targeting “Islamophobia” and the bullying of Muslims students dates back at least to 2011, emails show.

CAIR officials became primary resources for San Diego school officials and the two sides seem to have established close relationships. School district officials invited Hassane to present CAIR’s bullying report for school psychologists during a January 2017 conference at the suggestion of Muslim school psychologist Kamal Boulazreg.

CAIR repeatedly invited school officials, such as school board Vice President Kevin Beiser, to its banquets. School district officials recognized Mohebi and CAIR for their work in the community in November 2015.

FCDF complains that all of this is inappropriate because CAIR’s mission is to promote Islam.

CAIR’s religious mission was explained by its national Executive Director Nihad Awad, who also goes by the name Nehad Hammad, during testimony last year about a union organizing effort before the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). CAIR is a religious ministry, he said, making it exempt from the NLRB’s jurisdiction.

Teaching Americans “about the Islamic faith is a religious obligation,” an NLRB summary of Awad’s testimony said. CAIR’s letterhead, he noted, includes the phrase, “In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful,” which opens every chapter in the Quran and identifies CAIR as a religious organization.

CAIR, the FCDF motion said, “prioritizes public school districts as ground zero to advance its religious mission.” In seeking the injunction, the FCDF invokes a 1972 Supreme Court case, Lemon v. Kurtzman, which established a three-prong test that bars schools from helping or hindering religious practices.

“… [T]eachers may not give assignments or make comments that create the impression that the teacher, or the school at large, endorses religion or favors a particular religion over others,” a guide written by Americans United for the Separation of Church and State says.

That’s what the San Diego School District is doing with the CAIR-designed anti-bullying program, FCDF argued. “Indeed, the Initiative sends a message to Plaintiffs – as nonadherents of Islam – that they are outsiders, not full members of the school community,” FCDF wrote in its motion.

A PowerPoint presentation used by the San Diego school board at its April 4 meeting expresses a desire to create “clubs at the secondary level to promote the American Muslim Culture.”

This raises the question of whose brand of Islam would be sponsored in the schools.

Piedra argues that Hassane’s and Mohebi’s documented ties to extremists make CAIR San Diego “divisive.” FCDF also contends their anti-Israel and anti-Semitic biases could taint their curricular recommendations.

“These radical connections strike at the heart of the Supreme Court’s mandate that government has the highest obligation to keep divisive forces out of America’s schools,” Piedra said.

Hassane signed a pro-Boycott Divestment Sanctions (BDS) declaration against Israel in August 2014. He also hosted Sheikh Main al-Qudah, an imam who held leadership positions in charities connected with terror financing, in December 2016 and in March 2016 at his mosque, the Islamic Center of San Diego (ICSD). Allali likewise posted a notice of Al-Qudah’s visit to ICSD on her Facebook page in March 2016. Both of these actions took place when Hassane worked to influence school district officials.

Al-Qudah’s LinkedIn profile shows he worked as director of the International Islamic Relief Organization (IIRO) in Jordan from 1994 until 1997. IIRO’s founder “provided donor funds directly to al Qaida,” the U.S. Treasury Department said. IIRO representatives cooperated with the al-Qaida terrorists in the 1998 bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. IIRO was a major financial conduit for Saudi funding of Hamas, the New York Daily News reported in 1996. Intelligence agencies found that major IIRO financial transfers ended up in the hands of Hamas front groups on the West Bank.

Al-Qudah served as general secretary of the World Assembly of Muslim Youth (WAMY) in 1999, a group that U.S. authorities say has been involved in disseminating jihadi propaganda for decades. “WAMY has knowingly and intentionally used its international infrastructure as a tool for supporting the al Qaeda movement, on both the ideological and military fronts,” a 2017 lawsuit against the Saudi BinLadin Group and others claims. He wrote a 2011 fatwa for the Assembly of Muslim Jurists in America (AMJA) that allowed for Quranically-mandated tithing called zakat to be used for “legitimate jihad activities.”

Other Al-Qudah fatwas for AMJA sanction wife beating; bar non-Muslims from “mocking Islam or making fun of any of its teachings;” state that Muslim states should execute apostates; that “[r]eestablishing the Muslim Caliphate is a must and a communal obligation upon Muslims;” and state that “no one has the right to remain in his or her Christianity or Judaism.”

Both Hassane and Mohebi attended AMJA’s March 2016 conference outside Chicago. Mohebi asked that Al-Qudah be blessed for his teaching at that convention. At AMJA’s 2015 conference, Mohebi expressed his “love” for Sheikh Salah Al-Sawy, who wrote a 2009 fatwa sanctioning violent jihad against Israel on AMJA’s website. Hassane hosted Al-Sawy as a guest preacher at his mosque in late January 2014, referring to him in a Jan. 16, 2014 Facebook post as “beloved.” Allali also promoted Al-Sawy’s visit on her Facebook page.

Mark Levin read a transcript of one of the neighbors or teachers who saw something and said something about the Cruz scumbag from Florida, revealing that he cut open a bird on his mother’s kitchen counter because he “want[ed] to see what’s inside,” and he dressed in ISIS outfits.
AND: Sure it would have been great to see a Broward Sheriff’s Deputy charge the shooter and take him down before he killed any innocent young people. But it’s hard to know exactly what to do when there’s a lunatic firing an AR-15 and you are armed with a 9mm or a .45 handgun. When LE agencies engage perps with AR-15s, they do so in Bearcats or with robots and wearing full body armor head to toe. Without cover or concealment, going inside the school in a cop uniform would be likely a suicide mission. Sometimes that’s what cops have to do. Is that what you would do?
That is precisely why we don’t want the treason Leftist obama junta disarming us.

The Olive Branch on the Temple Mount

by Rabbi Benjamin Blech

Two American Congressmen discover it’s a crime to bend down and pick an olive branch on this sacred spot.

Two American Congressman on a fact-finding mission to Israel last week found out far more than they ever expected when they visited the site of the Temple Mount.

Just before a planned visit with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Congressman David McKinley of West Virginia and Congressman Scott Tipton of Colorado decided to preface their meeting by going to the spot which for Jews is the holiest place on earth. They wanted to see for themselves what Jews experience on this most sacred site which, in the interest of peaceful relations with the Muslim world, Israel conceded to the control of the Waqf, the Islamic religious authority.

What happened to them is almost beyond belief.

The Congressmen, like tourists everywhere, thought it might be nice to bring home a souvenir. Spotting an olive branch on the ground, Congressman McKinley bent down to pick up the universal symbol of peace. The Waqf, the Muslim organization given authority over the Temple Mount, forbid people who are not Muslim from bending down, the equivalent of bowing. Similarly, nothing may be taken off the Mount by outsiders, whether it is an olive branch or even a stone or pebble.

So the Muslim Waqf insisted that the Congressmen be detained by the police, turning the olive branch into a symbol of irrational hatred.

The source of the olive branch as a symbol of peace comes the Torah. In the aftermath of the great flood, Noah sent out birds from the ark to check if the waters had receded sufficiently in order to return to dry land. The raven he sent out first found no place to rest and returned, alerting Noah that the time had not yet come. Next he sent the dove, but with similarly disappointing result. Finally, on the 301st day of the great flood, Noah sent the dove once more, and this time “the dove came unto him in the evening, and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf plucked off, and Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth” (Genesis 8:11).

It was a sign, too, that God’s anger had been appeased. It meant the end of destruction and devastation. God had completed his punishment of the generation that worshiped violence and was filled with corruption. It was time for a new beginning.

So the olive branch became a symbol of peace and good tidings. In ancient Greece, olive wreaths were awarded to Olympic victors. On July 4, 1776, a resolution was passed that allowed the creation of the Great Seal of the United States. On the Great Seal, there is an eagle grasping an olive branch in its right talon. The olive branch has 13 olives and 13 olive leaves to represent the thirteen original colonies.

However the American Congressmen learned that extending an olive branch of understanding, of love and of brotherhood on the Temple Mount is not part of the vocabulary of the mount’s present managers. Congressman Tipton summed up the status on the Temple Mount and the Middle East quite clearly when he stated that “The irony isn’t lost (that) they (the Muslims) have a problem with the olive branch.” The Congressmen strongly denounced the manner in which the Muslims forbid freedom of worship to non-Muslims. They were appalled, they said, when they saw that Jews are literally treated like herds of cattle – on the holiest site to the Jewish people. What made this even more painful to them was witnessing firsthand how Muslims treat the Temple Mount with total disrespect, discarding rubbish and debris everywhere and acting with total disregard to the sacredness of the area.

In this era of so-called peace talks it would be wise for us to acknowledge another message the Midrash teaches in connection to the dove bringing back the olive branch to Noah. What is the deeper significance of the olive branch, the rabbis ask, and why do we need to know that the dove held it in her mouth? Rabbi Shlomo Yitzchaki , the foremost biblical commentator, better known simply as Rashi (1040-1105) quotes the following teaching of the Talmud: “The dove said, ‘Better, let my food be as bitter as an olive from the hands of God and not as sweet as honey from the hands of flesh and blood.’”

The message is clear: The olive branch teaches us that rather than placing our trust in the promises of peace from man, we should place our trust in God. Even if in the moment, that may seem a bit “bitter,” ultimately, it is this promise and covenant that will prevail.

And it is God Almighty who promised us that the site of the first and second temples will eventually be host to the third – under Jewish control but enlightening the entire world with its message of peace and of love for all of mankind.

Let’s go over your vomitus, I mean… reply.
I am answering you but you refuse to open your ears. You understand nothing of zionism, nor Torah. Zionism is what has been discussed for 3000 yrs in torah, talmud, and the teachings of Torah and the idea of Zion as the holy site of the two temples and the land of Israel. Over 900 times in Tanach- and explcity so. Torah was never to be a source of force against any other ‘religions’ nor faiths, nor nations but rather a Light unto all nations. Otherwise Jews were told to live in peace in non jewish nations. That’s peace- not submission of all others- as in Islam.
Zionism, is merely the love of Zion, of the holy land and the idea of a light unto the nations.
That’s it in a nutsshell. To an evil doer liky yourself- you refer to those who expressed it as all merely atheists, self interested, but that is false- go read jewish history and see for yourself. Truly, go read, and you will see. That socialist minded jews did also take up the banner and first formed the secular governance is accurate but not all evil minded. The religous were actually there first over the centuries, and they too arrived, just as did arabs from all over arabia- who were much later created into a fake palestinian nation. That aside.
It was mohammed, who never worked a day after his money’ed first wife, 15 yrs older than he, who left him money, died- Mohammed and his pirates never worked but raided and took Jizya a la, Allah, who commanded it, to steal from infidels. Theft, piracy, slaughter, holy slaughter, and so commanding it in Sharia, for all time everywhere, the Jizyah against non muslims. A thief? A murderer? A slaughterer?- that would be your false prophet Mohammed. Need we go into all the utterly gruesome details then, and thru the 1400 yrs.
The 32,500 Jihad attacks, just since 9/11?
You are a Jihadist, an complicit in the serial killing of others- that’s what passes for ethics in Islam. Where there are no ten commandments but merely a fake ethics- what Mo’ said was good is considered the good, and what he said was bad, is considered the bad.
And one set of ethics for muslims, and another for —– all others.
Your a hoot…..

oh oh …why did you throw your vomit here …. with your filthy racist zionist drivel …??

why didn’t you throw the garbages toward anti-zionist pro-Torah Rabbi’s ???

you said Jews were told to live in peace in non jewish nations ….

hehehe …. thanks for laugh ….

what a ultra euphemism ..big blatant lies …and insult to people’s intelec …

when in fact … bulldozer campaign is the translation of your “live in peace with non jewish nations” ….

Filthy zionism is funded by filthy mega wealth of amassed by filthy blood sucking bankers ….

Garbage in … garbage out …

About Jizya … It will be waived when they convert to islam …

if Zionism is relevant ….where is zionist invitation toward non jews ??

where is zionism center to invite all colors/races to join zionism ??

will zionist come to remote amazon jungle to invite native tribes there to join zionism ???? ….. heheheheh ….

About Jizya- it will be waived when they convert to Islam.
GOT THAT.
The enslavement ends when all others surrender. That’s the freedom of Islam.
The ugliness, the lies, the lying, the self deception disorder that is …… you.

Oh, and as for where is zionis center to invite all colors/races to join…. there is no such impediment- now or ever. But… there is no forced conversion and no need to convert if your a person who follows the minimal commandments ….. all can get heavenly reward.
Unlike in Islam, where all others go to fiery hells.
Oh, as far as where is zionis invitation to join… of course there is, you idiot. Go to Jerusalem, go to the western wall of the remnant second temple, where the jews pray
and see all manner of non jews praying. They have always been invited and are allowed to be there. Now… as you were shown- no one who is a non muslim can pray up on the top, where the creepy Islamic presence is… no one who is non muslim can utter a prayer. They are too dirty to pray there, or even be there except at a few times with police escorts. Enslaved… as it were.
See the difference. No, you can’t.
You are a slaver, a muslim, you live in tyranny, you celebrate tyranny, and if you could feel what truth and falsehood actually are, you likely want to claw your own eyes out for your betrayal of humanity.
Love your heheheh…. you are a slaver- when the jizya is waved…. got it, you pitiful

it’s amusing to see how you all have been brainwashed with the new hollow religion called “freedom” …

Men doesn’t need freedom …. Men need a truth …

Freedom is hollow ….while Truth is always ASSERTIVE …

Islam destined to be a consistent underlying denominator …

Islam is NOT a wishy washy .. sissy .. inconsistent .. shy …. in asserting it’s presence ..

If you think a truth is dominant …imposing and … appear as tyrant .. etc …. Feel free to call it tyrant etc …

islam is like universal core constitution applicable for all races / colors / background ….

everyone who doesn’t comply with the universal constitution … they will bear the consequence ..

If you think Zionism is universal truth and not a filth …. you will hear zionist actively inviting everybody to join it …

But why only in Jerusalem ??? …. Because Zionism is too filthy to be promoted as universal spirit for mankind …

hehehehehe …

You’re the one who’s brainwashed. Why?
What do you think the 10 commandments were you tool?!? That’s what it indeed dealt with. Freedom from enslavement- which Islam rescinded and threw away, and brought- amongst the enslavement of it’s own, the indentured enslavement of all others- Jizya.
But Mo’ didn’t want those truths so he took them and turned them into servitude and enslavement- not truth.
Yes- Islam indeed does ‘assert’ itself. And that’s why you cannot understand the idea of freedom, and it’s attendant teachings and ‘truths’ of personal and national responsibility.
Thats the totality of the 613 commandments none of which you observe, or realize since you are forbidden but to be brainwashed into being taught that you have the ‘right’ the ‘assertivemess’ to Jizya all others- some truth.
No one does. Freedom, responsibility- they go hand in hand and they are hard truths. Those are the ethics and morality you lack.
Oh, and as far as you delusion that because Islam commands itself to conquer all others and make all others pay endured servitude- as something good- it is not.
It is servitude, and enslavement.

And Zionism?
Of course all can appreciate and take part. it is not exclusionary, charges no fees, and has the idea, of all humanity being intensely in relationship with G-d almighty, not slaves, of each other, not enslaving humanity- that’s Mo’s delusion and why he never worked a day in his life after age 40, when his wife died. He only took.
Religion, good religion is about giving much more than taking.

Freedom and Responsibility are from the 10 commandments. There is no such golden rule in Islam- it is a dualistic religion. It describes it’s enslavement of others by having one set of rules for believers, and another for all others, for all others – called Kafirs- the dirtiest word in the world.
Kafirs- you call the 80% of humanity who don’t believe and follow your enslavement as ‘unbelievers’
That’s Islam. That’s the assertiveness of Islam. Not truth. Enslavement, and tyranny.

You know that hehehehe makes you look like a fool…. not a man.
Oh, and as for your lack of reasoning: Jerusalem was the site of the first and second temples. It isn’t a threat to jizya all who don’t follow, like Islam’s enslavement.
It is a representation, and open to all. Unlike Mecca, where the bigotry is specific on the road signs that disallow all others from visiting.
All would and could visit and even participate. It’s not some command- or else.
That’s Islam’s way and view. Slavery. Murder, homicide, cruelty.
Think about how your forbidden from examining any of it- seriously. Think about that. The Torah demands the opposite. Freedom, and Responsibility
You are not familiar nor allowed to consider those, by your ‘faith’

Doesn’t Hamas quote one of your genocidal ahadith in its charter Indonesian muslum chimpanzee? Namely:
“‘The Hour [Resurrection] will not take place until the Muslims fight
the Jews and the Muslims kill them, and the rock and the tree will say:
‘Oh, Muslim, servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, kill him!’

No it talks about muslims being anointed to slaughter those who’s religion they poorly copied, and pretend that it’s because the people, the people who to them are hiding to prevent their slaughter, are to be slaughtered for the glory of their fake God Al.

FFS, why would any of the kafir al najjis NOT hate f’ing muslums? Allah over the world, wherever f’ing muslums take power the kafir al najjis are pushed to the “narrowest part of the road” without exception. Since islum is a fascist ideology, muslums are by definition fascists.

During George W. Bush’s administration, CAIR was exposed as a part of the Muslim Brotherhood and they were effectively banned. The Kenyan muslim usurper, rat obama, got in bed with CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood.
Rat obama, CAIR and Hillary destabilized Syria, overthrew Libya and destabilized Egypt so the Muslim Brotherhood could take over. Is there ANYTHING rat obama and hillary have NOT screwed up?

“cair” and its many infected branches are proven to be terrorist connected groups. They must be banned from the America. The McCarran/Walker act of 1952 already restricts their entry into America. It is time for the POLITICIANS in OUR government to begin and consistently ENFORCE the Laws-of-the-Land.

What about the future victims of the latent standing army of jihad savages and criminal illegals that obama has invited in and emboldened to insurgency? The American victims and America itself?
The insidious diabolical genius of obama the muslim African communist Satanist has us racing to disarm until we’ll find ourselves in the position of a lone deputy with a 9mm sidearm resorting to inaction while a lunatic massacres our most vulnerable with a semi-automatic rifle.
