US Multiculturalism Celebrated

As a prominent Islamist news org, Islamonline, enjoying American freedom of speech, opens an DC office to spread the word.

“Today, one of our dreams has come true, and I believe it is very important to have an office in an important country like America,” said Kamal Badr, IOL English website editor-in-chief.

“In a true sense, America can be called a multicultural and multi-ethnic society. It is full of activities with interests to Muslims,” he noted.

You don’t say. Well, America is a great country. Full of things Muslims and others love. America even unselfishly seeks to share its great universal values and prosperity with others.

IOL is founded by Muslim Brotherhood spiritual big/al Jazeera talking head sheikh Yousef al-Qaradhawi, banned from the United States, who calls IOL “The Jihad of our Era,” MEMRI reports. It would be great if the free flow of information, no matter how vile or ridiculous, was in fact the jihad of our era, when so many jihadis around the world are focused on restricting views, issuing kill orders, burning things and blowing things up. It would be even better if there were more Islamic sites focused on encouraging Muslims not to do those things, which have had the regretable effect of bringing greater Islam into disrepute. IOL founder/enthusiastic Jew-basher al-Qaradhawi’s personal info jihad, by the way, includes explaining the legitimacy of suicide bombings in Iraq and Israel. As for IOL itself, it is committed to “projecting the much-needed true image of Muslims ‘without any bias to any nation, religion or creed,’ ” though a quick scan suggests it’s your go-to site for standard-issue US and Israel bashing.

    Muslim Brotherhood? Were they indicted in Texas?
    Soon the site will promote Yusuf Islam’s records; recent song raising money for Hamas. On Yusuf website “remedy people by legacy of love peace and happines.” At the same time, Yusuf, (known as Cat Stevens) wishes Salman Rushdie’s Death by Fire!
    At least, they always end their call with Alah-0-Akbar!
