Doug Farah's post about the Global Muslim Brotherhood Daily Report (GMBDR) item in which the Muslim Brotherhood gives written advice on how to vote Islamic is quite disturbing. The most ominous thing is that they appear to be doing this within the U.S., even as we speak. Coincidentally, the GMBDR contains another article about how an American Muslim organization has asked one of the Presidential candidates to avoid referring to "Islamic terrorism," as if religion is irrelevant to the violent actions of those who fall into that category. If you were able to ask bin Laden or al-Zawahiri to list ten things about themselves, their first item would likely be "Muslim." Should Islam be stricken from the English language, in every sentence that mentions the word "terrorism"? How about the Muslim Brotherhood and Sheik Qawadari never using the word "Jew"? If this happened, they would essentially be deprived of any ability to communicate, so dependent are they on this term in all of their communiques. Of course "Islamic terrorism" does not denote that all Muslim are terrorists, the same way that "Christian Nationalism" does not characterize Christianity as a whole. "Islamic" is an adjective, which defines a smaller subset of the larger Muslim world. Should our next leader refuse to consider the religion of our enemies, when that religion is put forward as the reason why they are seeking to destroy the "Jewish state" and punish the "Christian crusaders," because it offends too many peaceful Muslims?
