Editor, Times-Union: Is it possible to ignore immense human suffering caused by violent aggression? One can almost become numb to it because our news has so many reports of murders and mass murders by Islamic terrorists. Muslim tactics are dependent on the soil they are working on. In many countries, their firearms and knives do the talking, and entire civilizations are brought under the Islamic yoke through violence and the threat of further violence. In America, in large measure, the very same Islamic leaders labor to teach that Islam is a religion of peace. Fascism is always spread by tactics that best fit in each people group to be won. Who would be so gullible as to believe Islam is peaceful? American college students. The book titled “Unholy Alliance – Radical Islam and the American Left” reveals Islamic subterfuge in America. Moussa Abu Marzouk, leader of the Islamic terrorist group Hamas, launched a non-profit group called the Holy Land Foundation. Their office was raided by the FBI in 2008 and shut down. Documents seized in the raid revealed that the Holy Land Foundation was part of a large network of organizations that Hamas had created earlier through Marzouk’s efforts. That network included the Islamic Association for Palestine, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, al Qaeda and more particularly the Muslim Students Associations on universities throughout the USA. A direct link! Many colleges are mentioned by name in the book, where campus Muslim Student Associations are used to promote radical publications, lectures of faculty and demonstrations promoting Islam. Some of those colleges are Duke, Harvard, Columbia University, the University of South Carolina, Brown University, Northwestern University, the University of South Florida, Georgetown University and UCLA. Indiana University at Bloomington has an active, proselytizing Muslim Student Association right here in Hoosier land. Here is one example of how Islam is promoted through college Muslim Student Associations. An engineering professor at South Florida University, Sami al-Arian, created a number of militant Islamic groups under the guise of free speech, appropriately named The Center for Constitutional Rights, World Islamic Studies Enterprise and the Islamic Committee for Palestine. He visited mosques across America to raise funds, with a video advocating the killing of Christians and Jews, “and damning America until death.” He was finally indicted as a terrorist, but it took seven years to do so because civil rights lawyers defended him as a “victim.” Militant Islam is daily going about its bloody aggression, making war against non-Muslims and Muslims alike to spread its control. At the same time, the subtle side of Islam is at work lulling America to sleep to the very real fascist ideologies of Islam by presenting itself as a religion of peace. America fought fascism in the form of Japanese imperialism and German Nazi-ism in World War II, only to face it again in today’s world disguised as religion. When something looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it’s a duck. Rick Wagner Pierceton, via email
