CLARION FUND URGES COMMUNITY LEADERS TO SHOW THE THIRD JIHAD IN EVERY SCHOOL, HOUSE OF WORSHIP IN AMERICA
(PORTSMOUTH, NH – June 22, 2009) – The Clarion Fund announced today that screenings of its newest documentary film, The Third Jihad, have drawn capacity crowds in more than 30 cities across the United States since the film’s premiere at the National Press Club in Washington, DC, last month.
Highlights have included gala events at the Simon Wiesenthal Center’s Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles on May 17, and The Directors Guild in New York City on June 11, both stunning successes.
“Thousands have now seen this important film. It is imperative that we continue with screenings of the film in every school, church, synagogue and mosque in America,” said Peter Connors, Executive Director of Clarion. “Education is the best way to fight the threat of radical Islam, and organizing a community screening of The Third Jihad is an easy and effective way to inform others about this clear and present crisis affecting the American public.”
The Third Jihad, which is narrated by Dr. M. Zuhdi Jasser, a devout Muslim, former physician to the U.S. Congress and founder and president of The American-Islamic Forum for Democracy, centers on the FBI discovery of a Grand Jihad Manifesto calling for “civilization jihadist process,” a cultural jihad to undermine the U.S. from within using non-violent strategies. Dr. Jasser illustrates how this silent war has already begun in America and other Western countries.
Because DVD copies of the film are intended for personal viewing only, individuals interested in creating a screening event for more than 10 additional viewers should visit the film’s official website, www.TheThirdJihad.com, to purchase a ‘Screening Kit.’ The kit includes a copy of The Third Jihad, a moderator’s manual, and full-color movie posters.
“While screenings can be arranged for large groups, we encourage individuals to also consider screening the film in their homes and offices for close family and friends,” said Connors. “Intimate gatherings are an excellent way to communicate these important messages to the people you care about and provide them with the information they need to secure their rights and freedoms.”
The film features interviews with experts on radical Islam and American security specialists, including leading expert professor Bernard Lewis, former New York City mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, Senator Joseph I. Lieberman, CIA Director R. James Woolsey, New York City Police Commissioner Raymond W. Kelly, as well as a first-hand account from a former terrorist. All those interviewed agree that the spread of Islamic fundamentalism in America is a societal reality that cannot be ignored.
