Rita Katz Hunts Terrorists

In her excellent book, Terrorist Hunter: The Extraordinary Story of a Woman Who Went Undercover to Infiltrate the Radical Islamic Groups Operating in America, Rita Katz (who published it anonymously, but has since been exposed because of lawsuits) describes what she found out about front groups in the United States. She explains how they work, where the money comes from, and where the money goes (to Jihadis who kill kafirs).

There is a LOT of money behind these front groups (wealthy Saudi oil-barons), and they want to make a show of innocence (using the Islamic principle of taqiyya) so they are suing Katz. She has helped expel Jihadis from America, and her work helps prevent known terrorists (and promoters of jihad) from coming freely to the USA as they used to be able to do. She is a hero, and I recommend her book, Terrorist Hunter.

Video Makers, the White Roses

A group calling themselves "White Roses" has created a video to inform non-Muslims about Islam. It's called Three Things About Islam. You can view it on YouTube or click here to see it on Citizen Warrior.

White Roses is based in Sweden. Their first version is in English, and they're now working on two more versions in German and Swedish.

The name "White Roses" is based on a student resistance group "Die weiße Rose" in Nazi Germany. The group became known for an anonymous leaflet campaign, from June 1942 until February 1943, which called for active opposition to Adolf Hitler's regime.

A spokeswoman for White Roses said, "We see a parallel here concerning the protection of free speech. As you posted today, freedom of speech is getting more and more limited. The intention in choosing this name is to make a point that there will be groups opposing the doctrine of the state and speaking their mind."

We're honored to say the video was inspired, in part, by three Citizen Warrior articles:

The Least You Need to Know About Islam

What "Religion of Peace" Really Means

What is the Root Cause of Islamic Terrorism?

We've given White Roses the Citizen Warrior Hero Award because they are doing exactly what needs to be done — what we should all be doing: Sharing with non-Muslims key information about Islam, making it interesting and easy to hear, keeping it non-partisan, focusing on Sharia and not on Muslims, keeping it clean and not staining it with racism or hatred, and in this case, putting it in a form that is easily shareable by others.

I've posted the video on a new site I'm building. The purpose of the new site is to help us reach people who might be put off by anything that smacks of Islam-bashing. I suggest you use that site to share the video with your uninformed friends: Three Things About Islam Video.

One last thing: The video presents information you probably already know, but its "target market" is people who don't know much, so it's a good tool we can use to share with less-informed people. I hope you use it.

Bill Warner

I tried to read the Quran many times, but I couldn't stay awake, and it was confusing because the traditional way to arrange the chapters is from the longest chapter to the shortest, rather than arranging them in the order they were written. Since many of the passages are events in Mohammad's life, reading the Quran start to finish is disorienting. It jumps around.

And many of the passages have no context. They seem to start in the middle, or assume the reader already knows things about Mohammad's life.

Not only that but most English translations are written in Olde English, which makes it even harder to read. And the original Quran is full of tedious repetitions of the same stories.

But Bill Warner, a former professor of physics, created a readable Quran. This is a vital key to defeating the third jihad. We non-Muslims need to know what is in that book since 61% of it is about us. Reading the Quran is the single most important thing a non-Muslim can do to educate themselves about Islam. Warner's book makes this a lot easier.

The book is entitled An Abridged Koran. It is written in chronological order in plain modern English, it removes the repetition, and it includes biographical information where needed so you actually know what it the passages refer to. It it excellent.

Bill also has several great weekly newsletters. Sign up here: Political Islam (in the left-hand column).

Trencherbone the Great

A blogger who calls himself "Trencherbone" has done us a great service. On a single page, he has compiled an enormous collection of resources entitled, Everything You Need to Know About Islam, arranged in alphabetical order.

Each category has several, sometimes very many, links to articles on that topic.

When we're talking to our fellow non-Muslims about Islam, they want proof. They want facts, statistics, examples. Their minds are not blank when it comes to Islam. They have already been told by seeming experts that Islam is a religion of peace, that it has been hijacked by extremists, and that people like you are racist, bigoted Islamophobes. So you had better make a good case if you want to get through.

Trencherbone has made it much easier to make a good case. And for that, and all the effort he has put into this excellent resource, he has justly earned the Citizen Warrior Hero Award. Check out his page: Everything You Need to Know About Islam.

Al Dajjal: Dangerous to Islamic Supremacists

I first read about Al Dajjal in an article about Pakistan. The article mentioned that Pakistan had blocked certain web sites and blogs that criticized Islamic doctrine, preventing their citizens from seeing them. It specifically mentioned the blog, Islam Exposed. And I thought, "If it's good enough to be blocked by Pakistan, it must be worth reading."

I was surprised to discover my petition to stop Muslim immigration in the Islam Exposed sidebar. I introduced myself to him. I was immediately impressed with his ability to document everything he said using core Islamic texts.

When White Roses posted their video, Three Things About Islam, Al Dajjal created a supporting post, showing the validity of the points made in the video. And he just did the same with Citizen Warrior's most famous article, The Terrifying Brilliance of Islam.

In the comments on the White Roses video, Muslims often make comments, producing confusion (sometimes deliberately, I think) and it was interfering with the purpose of the video, which was to educate people who don't know much about Islam. For people who know little about Islam, it's confusing when Muslims say "none of this is true." So Al Dajjal's doctrinal reference post is important. The post shows clearly the voluminous support in core Islamic doctrines for the message in the video. And since the video has already been viewed by well over a million people (and it's still relatively new) this support has made a big difference.

And many people had urged us to provide proof for each point in The Terrifying Brilliance of Islam. We assumed people would be motivated to learn on their own, but many people asked for proof and were sometimes looking for a reason to dismiss the information, but Al Dajjal again provided the support, allowing that article to have greater influence.

In addition to allying with others in the Resistance, Al Dajjal is a formidable warrior on his own, running both Islam Exposed and the Crusader's Armory.

For the work he does doing the one thing that needs to be done — educating non-Muslims about Islam's prime directive — he has definitely earned the Citizen Warrior Hero Award.

Risking Their Lives For Freedom

A group of Muslims have openly renounced their faith, exposing themselves to the wrath of Islam. It is a sin punishable by death to leave Islam. But these people are doing it, they're doing it in public, and they're saying why they're doing it.

They are opposed to Britain's culture of accepting and appeasing the intolerant religion of Islam. They believe in freedom of speech, freedom of sexuality, and freedom of religion.

Islam Doesn't Qualify as a Religion According to the Italian Cabinet

Mosques in Italy will not receive a share of income tax revenue the Italian government allocates to religious faiths each year. Hindu and Buddhist temples, Greek Orthodox churches and Jehovah's Witnesses will be eligible for the funds, according to a bill approved by the Italian cabinet in May and still must be approved by parliament.

Until now, the government had earmarked 8 percent of income tax revenue for Italy's established churches. The great majority of these funds go to the Catholic Church, although if they wish, individual tax payers may elect to give the money to charities and cultural projects instead.

Islam is not an established religion in Italy and there is only one official mosque in the country, Rome's Grand Mosque. Politicians from the ruling coalition cite radical imams, polygamy and failure to uphold women's rights by Muslim immigrants as obstacles to recognizing Islam as an official religion in Italy.

Until now, only the Catholic Church, Judaism and other established churches including Lutherans, Evangelists, Waldensians and 7th-day Adventists have received the income tax revenue from the Italian government. Source

Speak Your Mind About Islam Day: Thursday, June 6, 2013

The declaration below was written by a British citizen who wishes to remain anonymous. Let's show our solidarity with the British.

Just this past week we were shocked to witness, in broad daylight, on London streets, the ambush and barbaric murder of Lee Rigby, a British soldier, husband, and father of a young child. Lee was ambushed by two men, one of whom spoke directly to the camera afterwards. This man made it clear that his motivations were based upon Islam and the numerous verses in the Quran that call for violence against non-Muslims.

Afterward, individual citizens from the UK and around the world flooded social media with their sentiments about Islam, the false narrative that it is a “Religion of Peace” and the blatant falsehood put forth by Prime Minister Cameron that the teachings of Islam had nothing to do with this brutal assassination. Several citizens have since been arrested by the government of Great Britain for comments they made under the influence of grief and anger. These actions by the government are an attempt to suppress free speech and must not be tolerated. We ask that you stand with these persecuted individuals as a unified people.

In response to the British government’s attempts to suppress free speech, we wish to declare Thursday, June 6th, 2013 “Speak Your Mind About Islam Day”.  June 6th is a day of great significance for the free peoples of the world.

In the 1940’s, American, Australian, Brit, Canadian, Frenchman, Indian, Russian, Christian, Jew, Hindu, Sikh and countless others were bound together by the common goal of eradicating forever the vile ideology of Nazism. On June 6th, 1944, segments of these diverse allied forces bound together and stormed Fortress Europe marking the beginning of the end of the ideology of Nazism as a force among men.

Let June 6th 2013 once again be that day for us.

On Thursday, June 6th, 2013 we ask that you flood social media with your thoughts on and knowledge of Islam as a clear and unmistakable message to our governments around the world that we will NOT be silenced by blasphemy laws, statutes on “community cohesion”, or threats and acts of intimidation carried out by our governments in an attempt to silence us on the issue of Islam and its undeniable ties to religiously motivated acts of terror around the world. Our overwhelming numbers and unified voice must make it clear that we will become increasingly UNGOVERNABLE, without becoming violent, on the issue of Islamic terror. An assault on one will be treated as an assault upon us all; we will stand together as one voice. Political careers will pay a price at the polls for the condescending act of telling us that Islam is what we all know it is not.

Rules of Conduct:

  1. Keep it civilized — nothing positive comes from mob-like behavior.  
  2. Focus on the ideology of Islam, not individuals.
  3. No profanity or ad hominem attacks — they cause people to tune out the message because of the messenger.
  4. The goal is to unite us, garner group support for the cause, and put our governments on notice that we will not be silenced.

Please share this now with every blogger and social media group you know about.

Andy Miller

A recent event in Tennessee was, by all measures, a stunning success. An estimated 4000 people came to see Geert Wilders, Bill Warner, Sam Solomon and others speak about Islam at the Tennessee Freedom Coalition's inaugural Signature Series event on May 12, 2011.

Geert Wilder's presentation, Warning to America, floored the audience. Baron Bodissey wrote about the event in an excellent article entitled, Tennessee the Model, and said:

The audience response to the speeches was uniformly positive and enthusiastic — Geert Wilders was interrupted by applause over and over again. One could tell that people had been desperate to hear these things actually spoken out loud. These were opinions which they had thought were forbidden, but which they now understood to be held in common with thousands of other Tennesseans. Mr. Wilders reminded them of their rights under the First Amendment — as he said, “here I can say what I want to say without having to fear that I will be dragged to court upon leaving this church.”

Bodissey is right: Tennessee is a model. "This strategy can be replicated all across Middle America," he wrote. "Lou Ann Zelenik (the executive director of TFC) told me several days later that she has received calls from pastors in other cities who want to do the same thing that TFC did in Nashville. So the model is already spreading virally, just as any good model should."

The entire event was professionally filmed. TFC is making a documentary of it, and has released several teasers, which you can view here, as well as a fifteen-minute video on YouTube of Bill Warner's talk, which you can view here.

How did this all come about? The event was staged and funded by the Tennessee Freedom Coalition, an organization begun by founding chairman, Andy Miller. "Our goals are important, yet very fundamental," said Miller. "In an age of social unrest and political turmoil, we want to bring truth to light by using the facts to educate citizens on the critical issues of our time...We will go where the truth leads us, and not be swayed by political correctness..."

In their first major event, TFC set the bar very high. Not only did a lot of people learn about Islam's prime directive, but the Signature Series inaugural event helped to further the education of several state legislators, who nine days later voted overwhelmingly to approve an anti-terrorism bill in a 26-3 landslide in Tennessee's Senate. The vote in the House was a few days earlier and passed 76-16.

Shortly after the Senate's vote, Andy Miller and his "Brother" Bjorn Larsen were dragged onto the Senate floor to receive a standing ovation in the Tennessee House of Representatives for his work on the bill and their joint efforts in making the events earlier in the week a possibility.

With Miller's leadership, TFC and other concerned Nashvillian's also helped to fund a video by Americans for Peace and Tolerance — a documentary exposing radical Islamist preachers in Nashville who had been accepted by the city leadership and the media as "moderates," but who were indoctrinating students at both Vanderbilt and Tennessee State University — as well as Nashville mosque members — with extremist, anti-American views. You can watch their first-rate 16 minute video on YouTube here: Losing Our Community.

This video had a large part to play in alerting legislators to what needed to be done.

Andy Miller is also on the board of the local ACT! for America chapter in Nashville, the largest ACT chapter in the United States.

TFC is a new organization. But in its short two-month existence, it has had a major impact on local Tennessee legislation, and has provided a model for effective grassroots activism all over the world.

Miller doesn't want to limit TFC's impact to Tennessee. "Our intention is to take this as far as it can go," he says. "Let's make it work in as many states and countries as we can." He says TFC wants to help other groups interested in staging similar events or doing similar legislation work. TFC's board members are willing to provide guidance and to share their experiences. Contact TFC by clicking here.

Andy Miller is a true Citizen Warrior Hero in every sense of the word. He and his organization will be leading us to the next stage of the counterjihad movement as it shifts toward the mainstream. I urge you to sign up for the TFC email updates, to "like" TFC on Facebook, and to follow TFC on Twitter. Let's all keep in touch with what this new powerhouse is going to do next, and assist in any way we can.
