Washington Post, Hand-In-Glove with CAIR, Try to Silence Team B II

On the heels of “Monitoring America,” a tiresome and finger-wagging piece about local American law enforcement’s efforts to combat terrorism in yesterday’s Washington Post by William Arkin and Dana Preist (something I’ll respond to later and at length here at Big Peace), the Post’s Jeff Stein amplified calls from the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) for Attorney General Eric Holder to “review Justice Department policies on the reported use of anti-Muslim extremists to train counterterrorism officials nationwide.”

This effort, including the Washington Post piece that spawned the activism from CAIR, is an attempt to silence experts who speak and write on the threat Shariah poses–as animated by both kinetic terrorists and the more sophisticated pre-violent, institutional efforts of the Muslim Brotherhood–to imperil our national security.

The Washington Post is actually collaborating with CAIR in silencing any criticism of Shariah, enforcing a speech code that is an act itself sanctioned by Shariah. From the Team B II report:

For non-believers, the corollary to the Islamic rule against disclosing anything disadvantageous to Islam is shariah’s prohibition against blasphemy. This requires that infidels refrain from engaging in discussions about Islam that extend beyond what is permitted of them or would give offense to Muslims.

Such suppression of information is invaluable to the shariah enterprise because a straightforward reading of Islamic doctrine lends credence to claims by its adherents to be in the mainstream and orthodox. The current approach enshrined in U.S. national intelligence and security policy, which conforms to shariah blasphemy dictates, has the effect of removing these facts from discovery.

Encouragingly, local and national law enforcement and national security professionals from around the country have been very receptive to briefings by various authors of Shariah: The Threat to America and members of Team B II on the Muslim Brotherhood and the centrality of Islamic law (Shariah) to the enemy’s threat doctrine. In addition to the briefings, thousand of copies of the book continue to be made available to decision-makers, members of the media, law enforcement personnel, and national security professionals.

While Stein’s piece in the Washington Post‘s “Spy Talk” blog reports that, “the FBI severed its formal ties in 2008 over CAIR’s ties to the Palestinian group Hamas,” he doesn’t tell you that, in a recent public filing of a sealed court order from July 2009, Federal Judge Jorge Solis reaffirmed the linkage between Hamas and CAIR, both offshoots of the Muslim Brotherhood. Of course, many know CAIR as a government-listed unindicted coconspirator in the Holy Land Foundation trial, the largest and most sweeping terrorism-financing trial in American history. That designation, along with the evidence Judge Solis documents, goes unmentioned by Stein (as it does too often by some television news anchors).

In addition to being named as an unindicted coconspirator in a massive Hamas funding operation, there’s enough evidence to suggest CAIR is operating as an unregistered Foreign Agent of Saudia Arabia, the UAE, Iran and other Islamic countries, promoting the interests of its chief funders in Washington and across America.

For a quote, Stein turns to Nihad Awad–one of the original founders of CAIR, who was a participant in an FBI-taped secret Hamas meeting in Philadelphia that was the genesis of that particular Muslim Brotherhood front:

“The use of ill-informed and agenda-driven ‘experts’ will inevitably result in law enforcement practices that are based on misinformation, not on our nation’s legitimate security needs,” CAIR’s National Executive Director Nihad Awad said in a letter to Holder.

How touching that Awad is concerned with America’s national security!

This video below from the Center for Security Policy’s CAIRObservatory–where thousands of documents are archived–make the case that CAIR should register as a foreign agent of Saudia Arabia, the UAE, Iran and other Islamic countries.
