IRAN DEAL DANGEROUS & DISCONNECTED FROM REALITY

Iran Deal Dangerous & Disconnected from Reality
Disconnected from Reality
In section (ii) of the Preamble, the JCP states: “The full implementation of this JCPOA will ensure the exclusively peaceful nature of Iran’s nuclear programme.”
This level of delusion reveals a White House and State Department which are devoid of any capability for reasonable thought, or a White House and State Department which are intentionally opening America up to grave danger – even more so than already exists. This assumes that an written agreement is going to keep the regime in Tehran in line.
Since 1979, Iran has called for the destruction of America and Israel. We need not look any further than the Iranian Constitution for all we need to know – as if the constant barrage of “Death to America” for the last 35 years isn’t enough.
In the first substantive paragraph after the “Preamble,” the Iranian Constitution reads:
“THE VANGUARD OF THE MOVEMENT
Imam Khomeini’s crushing protest against that American plot, The White Revolution, which was a step taken with a view to strengthening the foundations of the despotic regime and consolidating Iran’s political, cultural and economic links with World Imperialism, was the motive force behind the united uprising of the nation.”
Enshrined in Iran’s Constitution is hatred for America. This has not been amended by the way. Later in the Iranian Constitution we read: (more…)
CONNECTING THE DOTS TO THE TEXAS GUNMEN

Their Phoenix mosque maintains Shariah-compliant support for jihad
Washington Times, By Clare M. Lopez Clare M. Lopez is vice president for research and analysis at the Center for Security Policy.
– – Tuesday, May 5, 2015:
Both gunmen identified in the May 3 attack against the “Draw Muhammad” event at the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, Texas, attended the Islamic Community Center of Phoenix, according to news reports. Elton Simpson and his roommate, Nadir Soofi, both were known to mosque leadership dating from 2006, although Usama Shami, chairman of the mosque’s board of trustees, claimed they stopped attending recently.
Interestingly, the imam at the Islamic Community Center of Phoenix (ICCP) is Sheikh Mahmoud Abdul-Aziz Ahmad Sulaiman, one of the so-called “flying imams,” who filed suit in March 2007 against US Airways officials for allegedly showing discrimination in removing them from a flight after the imams’ suspicious behavior raised alarm among crew and passengers. That behavior included loud praying at the gate area prior to boarding, refusal to sit in assigned seats, requests for seat belt extensions that were unnecessary and unused, and travel on one-way tickets with no checked baggage.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations, which was demonstrated in federal District Court to be affiliated with Hamas (the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, a designated terrorist organization as listed by Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates), and its attorney, Omar Mohammedi, a former president of CAIR’s New York chapter, filed the lawsuit on behalf of the six imams, including Imam Sulaiman.
The Egyptian-born Imam Sulaiman has served since 2002 as the imam at the ICCP, which was founded in 1982 and received its tax-exempt 501(c)3 status as a religious establishment. The ICCP website openly identifies the mosque as Shariah-compliant, with reference on its donations page to paying the “zakat,” an obligatory annual tax for all Muslims that is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, and of which one-eighth must go to support jihad. According to its website, the ICCP’s property is owned by the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT). The trust is yet another Muslim Brotherhood affiliate, as confirmed in a 2009 ruling by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas Dallas Division, which identified the trust as a Hamas associate.
Imam Sulaiman is a member of the Washington, D.C.-based North American Imams Federation, whose board of trustees include the Jordanian-born Imam Omar Shahin (another of the so-called “Flying Imams” and former imam of the Islamic Center of Tucson, Ariz.) and Imam Siraj Wahhaj, whose name appeared on a U.S. government list of unindicted co-conspirators for the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

JIHAD CENTRAL – STERLING, VIRGINIA – ADAMS Center
Thursday, March 12th, 2015
ADAMS Center in Sterling, VA: Jihad Central
One of Northern Virginia’s most prominent Islamic organizations, the All Dulles Area Muslim Society (ADAMS) Center was created by jihadis, and continues today to be a center of the Islamic Jihadi Movement in the Washington, D.C. area and beyond.
Despite this, ADAMS continues to be the primary “go-to” Islamic organization for churches, synagogues, and even the FBI in the D.C. metropolitan area.
Imam Mohamed Magid speaking at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum
The face of ADAMS continues to be Imam Mohamed Magid, the Executive Director of ADAMS and the previous leader of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), identified by the U.S. government as a financial support entity for Hamas – a designated terrorist organization – and the “nucleus” for the Muslim Brotherhood’s Islamic Movement in North America.
ISNA & ISIS: On February 6, 2015, the FBI issued a Press Release announcing that six (6) Bosnian nationals were charged with Conspiracy and Material Support of Terrorism. One of the six, Nihad Rosic, was arrested by the FBI in Plainfield, Indiana. For those unfamiliar with Plainfield, it is a small town that also happens to be the home of the ISNA Headquarters, and not much else.
This should not shock UTT readers. As has been documented here previously – from the 9/11 hijackers to Major Nidal Hasan to the “Virginia 5″ to the Boston Marathon bombers, and now to ISIS – jihadis use the Muslim Brotherhood’s Jihadi network in America for logistical, financial, and material support of their operations, and ISNA and the ADAMS Center are in the middle of it all.
Besides this obvious link between ADAMS and ISNA, ADAMS identifies itself as an affiliate of ISNA on its website (see image below).
PART 4 – THE POLITICAL LEFT’S MARRIAGE TO ISLAMIC JIHAD

SILENCING TRUTH AND LYING AS A STRATEGY BY JOHN GUANDOLO

The Political Left’s Marriage to the Islamic Jihad: Silencing Truth and Lying as a Strategy
This is the third in a 4-part series on The Political Left’s Marriage to the Islamic Jihad
The truth always offends those who do not have it.
In the Sharia (Islamic Law), “Slander” is defined as follows: “To mention anything concerning a person (Muslim) that he would dislike (Um Dat al Salik, Islamic Sacred Law, r2.2).” The Quran, the Hadith, and a consensus of the Muslim scholars all agree that anyone who insults the Prophet and/or Islam must be killed (e.g. Surah 9:12, Hadith – Abu Dawud and al-Nasa’i, from Ibn-‘Abbas). The punishment for Slander in Islam is death.
Currently, the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) – the largest international body in the world second only to the UN, made up of all 57 Islamic nations on the planet – is officially calling for “deterrent punishments” (Section VII, para 3) for anyone who offends Islam, and continues to petition the United Nations for such action. This campaign is called “Islamophobia.”
Islamophobia is the imposition of the Islamic Law of Slander. To be called an “Islamophobe” is to be threatened.
Book R of the Um Dat al Salik (Islamic Sacred Law) is entitled “Holding One’s Tongue.” Section 8 is “Lying” with a sub-section titled “Permissible Lying.” This alone is telling. The Sharia quotes the Prophet Mohammad from the authoritative Hadiths of Bukhari and Muslim: “I did not hear (the Prophet) him permit untruth in anything people say, except for three things: war, settling disagreements, and a man talking with his wife.”
The law is clarified further: “It is permissible to lie if attaining the goal is permissible…it is obligatory to lie if the goal is obligatory (ibid, r8.2).” Jihad is obligatory.
The Political Left around the globe, and especially in the United States, also uses lying, deceit, and the destruction of those who speak the truth as weapons for their own ends. (more…)
CULTURE OF DEATH BY JOHN GUANDOLO

The Political Left’s Marriage to the Islamic Jihad: Culture of Death
In this second of a 4-part series on The Political Left’s Marriage to the Islamic Jihad, we will explore the Culture of Death that pervades both ideologies at their core.
To read the first installment, click here.
************
Let us begin with the fact that the Political Left is responsible for more murders in the last 90 years than all other ideologies combined, including the Islamic Jihad. From Vladamir Lenin to Mao Zedung to Pol Pot to Adolf Hitler to Josef Stalin the communists and socialists in the 20th century killed tens of millions of people – in brutal and barbaric ways.
Elites on the Political Left will say these “extreme” examples of Stalin and Hitler are not related to their efforts to bring “equality” and “justice” to the average man and woman, and they would never support such treatment of people. This soft-spoken language of socialism is no less dangerous because it lays the foundation for the likes of Stalins and Hitlers, and have for over 90 years.
We must also begin with the fact that America was founded on the principle that God gave us our right to life and, therefore, each of us has value and dignity in the eyes of God. This “unalienable right” as written by Thomas Jefferson in our Declaration of Independence, is defined in legal dictionaries in the 1800’s to mean “a right that could not be taken away from you even if you tried to give it up.” When free people surrender the right to life in any manner, we surrender it for all of us. Tyranny knows no boundaries. (more…)
THE POLITICAL LEFT’S MARRIAGE TO THE ISLAMIC JIHAD

The Political Left’s Marriage to the Islamic Jihad
This is the first of a four (4) part series on the long historical relationship between the political left/Progressives and the global Jihadi Movement over the last century and its current culmination in the attempt to bring down Western civilization in general, and the United States specifically.
In this first edition, we will review the general history of the relationship between the Left and the Islamic Jihad movement, and the disconnect from reality that must take place for the Left to believe the leaders of any totalitarian movement will allow them to survive despite a hundred years of history to the contrary.
This unholy marriage has several key areas of common ground:
