WHILE WE SLEPT

While We Slept

“But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.” Matthew 13:25 (KJV)

Is this what we are witnessing with the advent of Barack Hussein Obama on the world stage? I think so. Christians have been lulled to sleep by flowery rhetoric and smooth promises, just as has the rest of the world when it comes to Obama. Far from being the unifying force he promised to be, he has become the most divisive president to ever hold the office. He has divided America in the areas of religion, race, family, social interactions, economy, and anything else he touches.

His alignment with the Muslim Brotherhood is no secret but his continued advancement of it escapes many. Islam's influence is far reaching and aided by Obama and the mindset that put him in power. Illinois Democrat, Andre Carson, is the second Muslim that has been elected to Congress. The ideology that causes one to identify himself with Islam should have ruled him unacceptable to hold any office in America, especially in this post 9/11 era. But instead of awakening us to the dangers imposed by Islam in the United States, which should have become apparent on that Tuesday morning when almost 3,000 Americans lost their lives due to Islamic Jihad, America has been lulled back to sleep as if nothing had happened or it were only a scary dream. "Move along. Nothing to see here" could be the cry of the day.

When we think of Chicago we often think of corruption in government, past and present, and the misfits that it has spawned like Eric Holder, Rahm Emmanuel and Barack Obama. Now Chicago has become the birthplace of an Islamic organization under the direction of the U.S. Council of Muslim Organizations (USCMO). If there is anything that is incompatible with the ideal that is America, a Muslim political organization tops the list.

In reality, Islam is more political than religious but it takes advantage of every religious freedom it can grasp. The religion of Islam is the matador's cape that hides the spear designed to kill the bull. Political Islam is that spear. We focus on the red cape and are unaware of the dangers it hides through its political side. I have often stated that if Islam were treated like the political organization it really is, we would chase it from our shores.

Consider this easy explanation of the difference between religious and political ideology. Most religions say, "Here is what I believe. You are free to choose it or not." Political Islam says "Here is what I believe. You have two choices, convert to my belief system or die. Your choice."

However, it appears that now Islam is becoming openly political, especially with the formation of this new political group with the aid and assistance of President Obama himself. It seems I gave America too much credit. We aren't even paying attention.

A stepping stone for this came in 2014 when Sabri Samirah, a Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood member, was allowed into the United States by President Obama. He had previously been banned from the US for 11 years.  He immediately began the groundwork for this political organization to influence politics in America to be more in tune with what Islam's goals for the country are. Yes, while we slept, Obama helped sow weeds in America's wheat field.

Known as the UMMA, it is registered as a "non-profit, nonpartisan, grassroots organization dedicated to promoting the public and political empowerment of the American Muslim community as well as serve its interests".  One can only imagine what those interest are in light of Islamic desire to see the entire world submitted to Allah and Mohammed's Islam.

The UMMA also endorses candidates, 85 % of which are Democrat and 15% Republican. This reinforces the fact that even some Republicans nowadays don't know where they stand when it comes to the Constitution of the United States. The Democrats are no surprise.

A list of donors to the political ambitions of Andre Carson's who have Islamic ties brought him $33,911.00. While Carson denies he is doing anything against America's interests, accepting money from CAIR, ICNA, ISNA and MPAC clearly have strings attached and would serve as a red flag to anyone paying attention.

Political campaigns usually begin to gain momentum about two years before an election. Does anyone think it is a coincidence that Obama lifted this ban on this Muslim's entrance into America to become politically active two years before the 2016 presidential election? Being naive is one thing. Being willfully ignorant is another.

Since the UMMA promises to galvanize the Muslim community for political reasons, it is a given that shaping the 2016 election was the plan all along.

Remember when President Obama told the people of the world during his UN speech “The future must not belong to those who slander the Prophet of Islam”? It appears he thinks it needs to belong to those who follow him instead.

He also stated that “America and Islam are not exclusive and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles of justice and progress, tolerance and the dignity of all human beings.” For a man who professes to be a scholar when it comes to the Constitution, this sounds like an outright deception aimed at promoting Islamic acceptance in the America, something he does on a regular basis.

And, of course, it takes only a casual glance at any real world news to see that "dignity for all human beings" is not Islam's strong suit.

How much influence the UMMA will have upon our political system is unknown but based on their dedication and those high in government who are giving them a helping hand, it promises to be considerable. Working within the system of a country it seeks to conquer is the Islamic way. Islam's Prophet Mohammed directed Muslims to "not offer peace when you have the upper hand". Muslims now in America do not have the upper hand, but with government assisted immigration from Islamic lands by President Obama, the trend of increasing Muslim population is well underway. Seventy-five thousand are expected to arrive from Syria in the next five years alone. Step by step a goal is achieved.

America can't be conquered from the outside because we are too powerful a military force. But as Abraham Lincoln and others since warned, it is vulnerable to attack and ever destruction, from the inside. Every mosque that dots our changing landscape is a headquarters to that very end. Every militant training camp in America (the estimates are near 35) is a headquarters from which to spearhead those attacks. That is obvious to anyone with their eyes open.

However, with the aid of people like Muslim Congressmen Andre Carson and Keith Ellison, and the president himself, the eating away of America has already begun and that appears to be escaping the notice of most Americans.

As it always does, Chicago is not content to keep its corruption to itself but is determined to export it as we have seen with Obama and numerous politicians connected to him and that city. Every destructive cancer always has a place where it started and although small, it grows, especially when left unchecked and unnoticed. Islamic influence in America is a cancer that will, as cancers tend to do, destroy the host. This Islamic cancer is growing and left unchecked, will send America to the dust bin of history as it has other cultures throughout the centuries.

Turkey used to be called Anatolia, a Greek and Christian nation, now about 97% Muslim. When Islam annihilates a culture, it changes the name to erase everything that came before Islam. Egyptian culture has vanished and replaced with Islam. The face of the Middle East in particular has changed from freedom-loving nations to enslaved by Islam. America will be its crown jewel and it makes its mouth water.

Yes, while we slept, our enemies crept in and sowed weeds and slipped away unnoticed, content in the fact that the seeds they planted will do what military force could not do, infiltrate and saturate. It took 400 years for Greek/Christian Anatolia to become Muslim Turkey. How long will it take for the United States to be no longer recognizable? At the speed with which we are assisting in our own destruction, in will be sooner than later.

I find it interesting that the Arabic word for tare is tarhah  and refers to something discarded, from taraha meaning to reject. If anything in America is considered worthy of being discarded and rejected, it is Islam.

The time to deal with unwanted weeds is when they first stick their heads above the soil. It is much easier before they get established. With the new creation of the UMMA and the acceptance of such organizations as CAIR, ISNA, ICNA, USCMO, MSA and others along with the Muslim Brotherhood as valid organizations free to operate openly within our borders, unchecked, sadly America has more years behind her than ahead of her. These destructive weeds need to be dealt with now, decisively and with prejudice. It is America's only hope for survival.
