The Light is Shining on American-Muslim Organizations

In 2004 the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) filed a lawsuit against Andrew Whitehead the founder of Anti-CAIR. The lawsuit was for $1.35 million for defamation via knowingly publishing false statements incriminating CAIR of criminal activity.

What did Whitehead say about CAIR that irked the ire of the Islamist organization on American soil? Whitehead posted these statements:

• “Let there be no doubt that CAIR is a terrorist supporting front organization that is partially funded by terrorists, and that CAIR wishes nothing more than the implementation of Sharia law in America.”

• CAIR is an “organization founded by Hamas supporters which seeks to overthrow Constitutional government in the United States and replace it with an Islamist theocracy using our own Constitution as protection.”

• “ACAIR reminds our readers that CAIR was started by Hamas members and is supported by terrorist supporting individuals, groups and countries.”

• “Why oppose CAIR? CAIR has proven links to, and was founded by, Islamic terrorists. CAIR is not in the United States to promote the civil rights of Muslims. CAIR is here to make radical Islam the dominant religion in the United States and convert our country into an Islamic theocracy along the lines of Iran. In addition, CAIR has managed, through the adroit manipulation of the popular media, to present itself as the ‘moderate' face of Islam in the United States. CAIR succeeded to the point that the majority of its members are not aware that CAIR actively supports terrorists and terrorist supporting groups and nations. In addition, CAIR receives direct funding from Islamic terrorists supporting countries.”

• “CAIR is a fundamentalist organization dedicated to the overthrow of the United States Constitution and the installation of an Islamic theocracy in America.”

This was a classic legal maneuver that the ACLU uses to intimidate people or organizations (government or NGO) to comply with an agenda. I don’t know if CAIR learned the tactic from the ACLU but I do know CAIR uses legal intimidation. In Whitehead’s case the intimidation was meant to destitute him and shut him up.

Whitehead is one of the first voices to expose CAIR associations with terrorists and subversive Muslim Fifth Columnists whose designs are to eradicate Western Democracy which of course includes America. Whitehead often used to send out a warning to those who read his email alerts to be careful where you read Anti-CAIR information. The warning was to forestall the CAIR potential for legally harassing an employee’s company that could potentially result in a dismissal.

I write about Whitehead’s encounter with CAIR because I just became aware that World Net Daily (WND) is publishing a book written by Paul David Gaubatz and Paul Sperry entitled, “Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld that’s Conspiring to Islamize America.”

The Gaubatz-Sperry book recounts how American-Islamic organizations are operating with the similarity of the organized Mafia. This kind of exposé more than likely has more detailed information than Whitehead’s courage at Anti-CAIR to write about the wrongs of CAIR.

Here is WND’s promotion of “Muslim Mafia.”

More than 12,000 pages of secret documents reveal how the Council on American-Islamic Relations and other "moderate" and "mainstream" Islamic front groups act as part of criminal Muslim Brotherhood conspiracy to support terrorism and infiltrate and destroy the American system from within.

"Muslim Mafia," which hits bookstores today, tells the real-life story of a father and son team who spent six months infiltrating the national headquarters of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), obtaining more than 12,000 pages of secret documents and hundreds of hours of covert videotape detailing the group's ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and the group's long-term plan to Islamize America by slowly institutionalizing Shariah law, a puritanical brand of Islam that promotes violence and mistreats women.

"Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld that's Conspiring to Islamize America" documents the chilling details of an investigation by veteran federal counter-terrorism and counter-intelligence agent Paul David Gaubatz and a daring undercover operation, which included his son, Chris Gaubatz, and two hijab-wearing female interns, venturing into the belly of the Muslim Brotherhood beast. Chris worked at CAIR's national headquarters, by becoming an intern and posing as a Muslim convert, to gather for the first time evidence of the Muslim Brotherhood's inner workings.

More than likely, you've heard by now about the young investigators who covertly videotaped officials of ACORN, another nonprofit activist group, advocating illegal activities. Their sting was both courageous and audacious.

However, this (unrelated) sophisticated undercover investigation inside the headquarters of a terror-supporting front group was both more dangerous and devastating in terms of the volume of smoking-gun evidence collected. Essentially, this team of brave private investigators went behind enemy lines and lived to tell a shocking story of terror, fraud and sedition.

"Muslim Mafia," published by WND Books, is packed with pages of recently declassified government documents and evidence from the covert operation, including thousands of e-mails, faxes and internal memos that were never meant for public viewing. The first section of this book reveals how the Council on American-Islamic Relations functions as a dangerous front organization. More alarming, however, is that CAIR is part of an organized crime network in America made up of more than 100 other Muslim front groups that collectively make up the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood.

The second half of the book exposes the inner workings of the mob-like Brotherhood, and outlines its broader conspiracy of infiltrating the American government and "destroying Western civilization from within." For the first time, the constellation of dots in this sinister conspiracy are connected, and connected convincingly.

"The evidence found in the investigation is incontrovertible - after all, it's their own documents laid bare," said co-author and investigative journalist Paul Sperry. "With more than 12,000 pages of support documentation, more than 40 pages of footnotes and an appendix containing more than 50 pages of exclusive confidential documents, Muslim Mafia offers hard proof of the Muslim Brotherhood's subversive strategy against America."

He added: "This is the pro-jihad factory for homegrown terrorism plaguing the nation now - the Brotherhood controls not only the political fronts but the radical mosques and schools and prison and military chaplains and proselytizing materials circulating in the country - yet no one is looking for the off switch."

The Muslim Brotherhood is known within Islamist circles as the "Ikhwan mafia," because of its highly organized structure, centralized control, and covert operations. Like the mob, it has its own internal bylaws, security, and military infrastructure. A network of front groups, cut-outs, and shell companies shield its criminal activities from the authorities.

"These guys talk about jihad and murdering Jews like the mob talked about killing-totally casual, like they were ordering pizza," said one FBI official in Washington quoted in the book.

Some of the key smoking-gun revelations detailed in the book include:

• New evidence that CAIR was launched to support the Hamas terrorist group, and has transferred tens of thousands of dollars to a group recently convicted as Hamas' top fundraising arm in the U.S. - money that ended up aiding terrorist attacks on Israelis and Americans;

• Internal documents showing CAIR, despite claims of cooperating with law enforcement, actively works behind the scenes to mislead and deceive the FBI on behalf of terrorism suspects - and has even cultivated Muslim moles inside law enforcement who have tipped off FBI terror targets;

• CAIR is more closely tied to al-Qaida than previously reported;

• CAIR claims to represent all Muslim Americans, however, it has victimized some 100 indigent Muslims in a massive fraud and threatened them when they tried to go to the media; and internally, personnel complaints reveal CAIR discriminates against Shiite Muslims and Muslim women within its own headquarters;

• CAIR and its sister fronts are funded by foreign Muslim Brotherhood sources;

• CAIR leaders share the Muslim Brotherhood's ultimate goal to replace the U.S. Constitution with Shariah law;

• The Muslim Brotherhood investment in corporate America will be used to pressure U.S. companies into compliance with Islamic principles.

"Muslim Mafia" reveals that these radical Islamofascists are working from within the United States to:

• Support Palestinian terrorists, and destroy Israel;

• Gut U.S. anti-terrorism laws;

• Loosen U.S. Muslim immigration policies;

• Convert Americans to Islam;

• Infiltrate the government and institutionalize Shariah law.

"The Council on American-Islamic Relations is an unindicted terrorist co-conspirator, yet according to its internal documents, it is planting agents inside Congress as well as the Obama administration while aggressively lobbying Congress to dismantle the antiterrorism infrastructure Congress set up after 9/11 to protect the nation from another Islamic terrorist attack," Sperry warned. "The Council on American-Islamic Relations, along with its sister front the Islamic Society of North America, are the spearhead of the Muslim Brotherhood's 'grand jihad' against Washington."

The Justice Department and FBI have already listed both CAIR and ISNA among U.S. front groups for the Muslim Brotherhood and for the Hamas terrorism group. "Muslim Mafia" reveals for the first time, through bank wire transfers, embassy cables and land records, that both groups are bankrolled by Arab governments and wealthy Middle East donors tied to 9/11 and other terrorism.

And they are doing the bidding of these hostile foreign interests, including propagating jihadi doctrine in the U.S. and supporting Hamas terrorists abroad. In effect, they are unregistered foreign agents with virtually unfettered access to the corridors of power inside the nation's capitol.

"Where are these terrorist front groups getting their money? And what kind of direction and orders are they under from their foreign backers?" Sperry asks. "The American people have a right to know."

"The radical Islamists overseas have repeatedly told us how they intend to infiltrate all areas of our society, and use the freedoms that are guaranteed under our Constitution to eventually replace it with Shariah law," writes U.S. Rep. Sue Myrick, co-founder of the Congressional Anti-Terrorism Caucus, in the Foreword to "Muslim Mafia." "They have telegraphed their intent. Now we have proof - from the secret documents that this investigative team has uncovered, coupled with the ones recently declassified by the FBI - that their agents living among us have a plan in place, and they are successfully carrying out that subversive plan."

In a world where fighting terrorism is no longer popular and public leaders mask the reality of and in some cases intentionally cover up what's really happening within our borders, "Muslim Mafia" is an eye-opening wake-up call. It is a must read for anyone who wants the true story of the secret underworld that's conspiring to support terrorism and Islamize America.
