Infiltration: How Muslim Spies and Subversives Have Penetrated Washington

Product Description

As Americans continue to endorse religious tolerance for tolerance's sake, terror-enabling Muslim subversives masquerading as "moderates" have insinuated themselves into the very fabric of American society, taking advantage of our blind trust and gaining footholds in our education system, government, workplace, law enforcement, and military. In this startling book, now in paperback, investigative journalist Paul Sperry uses revealing new interviews and classified documents to courageously explain how, for the past thirty years, these Muslims have been covertly working to destroy our constitutional government and the Judeo-Christian ethics on which our nation was built. And, as Sperry details point-by-point, they have been unwittingly aided in their sinister aims by the politically correct media, government, and citizens, who don't fully understand the dangers of the Muslim faith.

Muslim Brotherhood 'Conspiracy' to Subvert America

Product Description
You've heard about the courageous young investigators who covertly videotaped officials of ACORN advocating illegal activities.

Now, get ready for an undercover exposé even more daring -- a six-month penetration of the Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations that resulted in the collection of thousands of pages of smoking-gun documents from this terror-supporting front group for the dangerous, mob-like Muslim Brotherhood.

This is what Muslim Mafia delivers.

It has all the elements of a top-flight mystery novel, but the situations and conversations are real. The book's frightening allegations are supported by more than 12,000 pages of confidential CAIR documents and hundreds of hours of video captured in an unprecedented undercover operation.

This trail of information reveals the seditious and well-funded efforts of the Brotherhood under the nonprofit guise of CAIR to support the international jihad against the U.S.

Follow intern Chris Gaubatz as he courageously gains the trust of CAIR's inner sanctum, working undercover as a devoted convert to Islam, and blows the whistle on the entire factory fueling the wave of homegrown terrorism now plaguing America.

About the Author
P. David Gaubatz, a former federal agent, is a U.S. State Department-trained Arabic linguist and counterterrorism specialist who has held the U.S. government's highest security clearances.

Paul Sperry, a media fellow at Stanford University¹s Hoover Institution, is former Washington bureau chief for Investor's Business Daily, and author of Infiltration: How Muslim Spies and Subversives Have Penetrated Washington.

Narendra Modi's response to Media & Congress propaganda

Baseless allegations are being leveled... to defame Gujarat

Text in PDF

मेरे प्रिय देशवासियो !

सादर नमस्कार |

आप इस सच्चाई से अच्छी तरह वाकिफ है कि पिछले आठ वर्षो से कुत्रिम मामले बनाकर मुझ पर तरह-तरह के मनघडंत आरोप लगाने का फैशन सा हो गया है | पिछले एक सप्ताह से जो अफवाहे, आरोप ओर झुठ फैल रहे है, इनकी गहराई में उतरें तो दुध का दुध ओर पानी का पानी हो जएगा | सत्य हमेशा सीमाएं तोडकर भी बाहर आता है | यह सत्य कया है इसका ताजा उदाहरण आपके समक्ष रखने की मुझे जरूरत आन पडी है |

वर्ष २००२की गोधरा घटना के बाद गुजरात विधानसभा सदन और सार्वजनिक रूप से अनेक बार मैने बयान दिया है कि भारत का संविधान और कानुन सर्वोपरि है | कोई भी नागरिक, चाहे वह मुख्यमंत्री हो तो भी कानुन से ऊपर नहीं है | मै इस वास्तविकता को सिर्फ श्ब्दो से ही नही बल्कि सच्ची भावना (इन टु स्पीरिट) से आज तक निभाता आया हुं और भविष्य में भी इसी भावना से निभाने के लिए प्रतिबध हुं |

इसके बाबजुद कई स्वार्थी तत्व, बिना तथ्य के मनघडंत और अनुमानों के आधार पर गुजरात को, मेरी सरकार को और स्वयं मुझे बदनाम करने का कोई भी मोका हाथ से जाने नहीं देते |

हाल ही मे "SIT का नरेन्द्र मोदी को समन्स" जैसी खबरें फैलाकर मोदी SIT के समक्ष उपस्थित नहीं हुए ओर मोदी ने सुप्रीम कोर्ट तथा SIT का अनादर किया ओर मोदीने तय तारीख पर अनुपस्थित रहकरीट SIT का अनादर किया जैसा आधारहीन "ओर् मनघडंत दुषप्रचार करके फिर एक बार गुजरात को बदनाम किया जा रहा है | इसलिए मजबुरी में देशवासियों को इस सार्वजनिक पत्र द्वारा सच्चाई बता रहा हुं |

सच्चाईः

• अखबारों की रिपोर्ट के मुताबिक SIT ने मुझे बुलवाया है, इसकी जानकारी मिलते ही सरकार के अधिक्रुत प्रवकता ने तत्काल ही बयान जारी किया कि नरेन्द्र मोदी संविधान के पालनकर्ता है ओर कानुन की प्रत्येक प्रर्किया में सहयोग देते रहे है तथा देते रहेगे |
  
  
• SIT ने समन्स भेजकर २१ मार्च २०१० को नरेन्द्र मोदी को बुलवाया है यह झुठ किसने शूरू किया ओर किस लिए शूरू करवाया, यह गंभीर जांच का विषय है |
  
  
• २१ मार्च २०१० को रविवार था ओर इस दिन सार्वजनिक अवकाश होता है | अफवाह फैलाने वाले मित्रो ने इतनी सी प्राथमिक जानकारी हासिल करने की जरूरत नहीं समझी |
  
  
• सर्वोच्च न्यायालय के प्रतिनिधि के रूप में कार्यरत स्पेश्यिल इन्वेस्टिगेशन टीम (SIT) के अधिकारीगण २१ मार्च २०१० को गुजरात में थे या नहीं इसकी प्राथमिक जानकारी हासिल करना भी इन झुठ फैलाने वाले मित्रो को मुनासिब ना लगा |
  
  
• देशवासियों को मै विनम्रता से बताना चाकता हुं कि मुझे उपस्थित होने के लिए २१ मार्च २०१० की तारीख तय नहीं की गई थी, इसलिए SIT में २१ मार्च को मुझे बुलाया गया था, यह बात बिलकुल झुठी है की मै सर्वोच्च अदालत द्वारा नियुक्त संस्था के गौरव तथा कानुन का आदर करके को संपूर्ण सहयोग दूगाव

२१ मार्च २०१० तो कुछ स्वार्थी तत्वो की कोज थी तथा ईसी के तहत कनुन की निर्धारित प्रक्रिया में हस्तक्षेप किया गया थाकी वह ऐसा चाहते थे कि में SIT को कोई तवज्जो नहीं देना चाहता, ऐसी स्थिति का निर्माण हो

पिछले २४ घंटे से देश में इस मनघडंत जानकारी के दुष्प्रचार का अभियान ऐसा चला कि कई प्रचार माध्यम भी उसके साधन बन गये मुझे आशा है कि अब ऐसा माध्यम भी सच्चा ओर सुधारात्मक अभिगम अपनएगे |

प्यारे देशवासियो |

वर्ष २००२ से गुजरात को लगादार बदनाम कर रहे इन तत्वो को गुजरात ओर देश की जनता अच्छी तरह पहचानती है लेकिन मुझे यह सत्य कहना है कि तरह तरह की सफवाह ओर झुठ फैलाकर जनता को उत्तेजित करने का पाप लोकतंत्र की समग्र प्रक्रिया में अवरोधक बनता है| पिछले २४ घन्टे के इस पूरे घटनाप्रम को देखते हुए, यह झुठ फैलाने ओर मुझे बदनाम करने का षडयंत्र नजर आ रहा है | स्वार्थी तत्वो ओर विभिन परिबलो की आपस में कैसी सांठगाठ है यह स्वयं ही सार्वजनिक हो गया है|

गोधरा और गोधरा घ्टना के बाद की घटनाओं के लिए गुजरात सरकार हमेंशा जांच आयोगो, जांच एजेसियों और सर्वोच्च न्यायालय-सभी की न्यायिक प्रक्रिया का आदर करती रही है और इसलिए ही इस विषय पर किसी भी मामले ओर बयानों के साथ जुडना राज्य सरकार ने उचित नहीं सम्झा |समग्र जांच हमेशा न्यायिक स्तर पर बिना के चलाती रहे इसलिए झुठ ओर बदनामी सहकर भी राज्य सरकारने मौन रखना ठीक सम्झा है |

अब जब पिछले २४ घन्टे का घटनाक्रम झुठ की पराकाष्ठा को पार कर चुका है तो सिर्फ सच्चाई क्या है यह देशवासियों को बताना मैने अपना कर्तव्य समझा है |

म्झे आशा है कि इस सत्य का भी दुरूपयोग करके जांच प्रक्रिया को निहित स्वार्थो के लिए गुमराह करने की कोशिश नहीं की जाएगी और प्रचार माध्यम भी मेरी एस वेदना ओर भावनाओं को लोगो तक पहंव्हाएंगे |

धन्यवाद

CM unravels the truth about supposed SIT summons in his letter to people

Dt: 22.03.2010

My beloved countrymen,

Namaskar,

I am constrained to write to you with a deep sense of anguish. Since last eight years canards have been spread against me. For the past one week if we analyse the allegations leveled against me, then the truth will become evident. Truth cannot be suppressed. It is now my duty to place before you the facts that brings out the importance of understanding what the truth really is.

After the 2002 Godhra incidents, I had categorically said in the Vidhan Sabha and in public that no one is above the Indian Constitution and the law, even if he happens to be the chief minister of a state. These are not mere words. My actions have reflected this statement in its true spirit. I assure you that this would be my stand in the future.

In spite of that, some vested interests without losing a single opportunity and with malicious pleasure and without bothering to ascertain the truth based on mere whims and fancies have been tarnishing the good image of Gujarat, my government and me.

Recently a systematic campaign to defame Gujarat through propagation of false reports titled “SIT summons Narendra Modi”; “Narendra Modi did not appear before SIT” and “Modi has shown disrespect to Supreme Court and SIT.” Such baseless allegations are being leveled once again against me to defame Gujarat.

I am therefore compelled to place the facts before my countrymen.

FACTS:

· As soon as newspapers began reporting that Modi has been summoned by the SIT, the government spokesperson immediately said that Shri Modi is bound by the law of the land and the Indian Constitution. He has always extended his cooperation to every procedure of law. And he is committed to do so in future.

· It is a matter of grave concern and needs investigation as to why and who started spreading lies that “SIT summons Narendra Modi on March 21, 2010”.

· The purveyors of untruth failed even to think that March 21, 2010 happens to be a Sunday and a public holiday.

· These purveyors of lies even did not once bother to check whether the key SIT officers, who are appoited by the Supreme Court, were present in Gujarat on March 21, 2010.

· SIT had not fixed March 21, 2010 for my appearance. To say that I was summoned on March 21 is completely false. I shall respond to the SIT fully respecting the law and keeping in view the dignity of a body appointed by the Supreme Court.

· The date of 21^st March 2010 was invented by some vested interest and as a part of their effort to interfere in the due process of law. They wanted to paint me as a person who refused to respond to the SIT. This country has in the last twenty four hours witnessed a campaign of disinformation in which a section of the media became an instrument of the disinformers. I hope this section will now take corrective steps.

My beloved countrymen,

The people of Gujarat and this country have identified those who are defaming Gujarat continuously since 2002. But I want to tell the truth that spreading falsehoods has only one single purpose and that is to instigate people. It is a sinful action which will harm the working of a democratic state. Seen in the backdrop of events in the last 24 hours it shows that there is a nexus among the vested interests in spreading lies against me in order to defame me. This machination has come unstuck and the people have seen through this charade.

Government of Gujarat has always honoured and cooperated with the investigative agencies, commissions and Supreme Court looking into Godhra and post-Godhra incidents. And that is why I never thought of giving a public statement on this issue. Despite unbearable pain, I decided to maintain silence in the belief that due process of law would take its own course.

But now as the lies reach a crescendo as never before I am compelled to bring the facts before the countrymen. I also consider it as my humble duty.

I hope the truth is not twisted by the purveyors of untruth to misguide the investigation. And I expect that the media would bring my deep pain and despair to the notice of the people.

Thanks,

Narendra Modi

Anti-Hindu sellout media having an orgasm over whether Legendary Gujarat Chief Minister Mahatma Narendra Modi will appear on March 21 or not. If not, then when? Or if at all will he attend. Its nothing but extra-judicial trial by prejudiced media all in the name of their fake Secularism.

What is Secularism?

What is Secularism?

Secularism means पंथनिरपेक्ष/Panthnirpeksh. Panthnirpeksh means "No preference" to any Sect or Group. It absolutely and categorically does NOT mean that all religions are equal. It literally means indifference to, or rejection or exclusion of religion and religious considerations in public life and government policies. This is also validated as per 42nd amendment to the Preamble of the Constitution of Bharat (misnomer: India) in 1976 by then despotic Prime Minister Indira Nehru Gandhi. Unfortunately, this amendment was passed without any debate when opposition was in jail during the dark days of emergency, which remains a blot on Indian Democracy and was enforced on India by dictatorial Indira Gandhi.

Secularism ≠ धर्मनिरपेक्ष/Dharmnirpeksh

Secularism means पंथनिरपेक्ष/Panthnirpeksh and does NOT mean धर्मनिरपेक्ष/Dharmnirpeksh. Let me say it again, Secularism ≠ धर्मनिरपेक्ष/Dharmnirpeksh AND Secularism ≠ बिनसाम्प्रदाय/Bin-Sampradaya. Those who say this are fools and may be unintentionally calling themselves as fascists. To understand this, we have to understand what does Dharm means?

What is Dharma?

Sanatan Dharm is too vast and deep to be defined in one line. Its a popular misconception that Religion equals Dharma. It is a misconception because Religion is only a minuscule part of Dharma. Its a misnomer that they are exactly same and it is inappropriate to loosely use them interchangeably.

Here are few attempts to define Dharma in Bharatiya (misnomer: Indian) history:

तादृशोऽयमनुप्रश्नो यत्र धर्मः सुदुर्वचः
दुष्करः प्रतिसंख्यातुं तर्केणात्र व्यवस्यति ९
प्रभावार्थाय भूतानां धर्मप्रवचनं कृतम्
यत्स्यादहिंसासंयुक्तं स धर्म इति निश्चयः १०
- भीष्म उवाच दशाधिक शततमोऽध्यायः शान्तिपर्व महाभारत

"Dharma" is that which upholds, nourishes or supports the stability of society, maintains social order and secures the general well-being and progress of mankind.
- Supreme Court of India

As India has recognised national flag, national bird, national anthem and national flower, the Bhagwad Gita may also be considered as the Rashtriya Dharma Shastra. The Gita inspired our national struggle for freedom and all walks of life,. It is the duty of every citizen of India under Article 51A of the Constitution of India irrespective of caste, creed or religion to follow the dharma propounded by the Bhagwad Gita,.
- Prayagraj High Court

Dharma is not just mere Religion as latter is minuscule part of ones Dharm (righteous duties). Religion is a sect or group of people following certain beliefs or ideology which can be truly defined by a Sanskrit word "Panth" and not "Dharm". Hence, if Dharm is "that which upholds, nourishes or supports the stability of society, maintains social order and secures the general well-being and progress of mankind" and "Nirpekshta" means "no adherence to" then "Dharm-Nirpekshta" means "no adherence to Dharm". Which means those who claim themselves to be Dharm-Nirpeksh, as do most of the Bharatiya (misnomer: Indian) politicians especially from Indian National Congress, RJD, DMK, BSP, SP, etc political parties, are actually saying that they have no adherence to upholding Dharm (upholds, nourishes or supports the stability of society, maintains social order and secures the general well-being and progress of mankind).

Which means they are proudly claiming themselves to be Adharmi & may be unintentionally calling themselves as fascists.

Are Hindus secular?

Heck Yeah! Hindus are inherently pluralistic in nature & believe in secular value of not giving preference to anyone sect or group. Certainly, allot more Pluralist & Secular than those who follow Abrahamic mythologies which are all based on intolerant concept of "Holier than thou" or "أشهد أن لا إله إلاَّ الله و أشهد أن محمدا رسول الله / ašhadu ʾan laa ilāha illa (A)llāh, wa ʾašhadu ʾanna Muḥammada(n) rasūlo (A)llāh / Allah is the ONLY God & Mohamed is his messenger, no one before them" (shahadah). It amazes me when Leftist bigots or self-righteous Westerners out of their Dhimmitude accuse Hindus of not being "secular" but conveniently ignore intolerance of these totalitarian ideologies like Islam & Christianity.

Leftist bigots or self-righteous Westerners should teach these supremacist cults to Mutually Respect us non-believer/infidel/kuffar Hindus rather than "tolerating" us.

Has any other sect or group of people, like Hindus, been so religiously tolerant and mutually respectful to any other sect in the history of Humanity? No. We have survived over 20000 years with natural & man made calamities, atrocities and genocide led by Muslims, Mongols, Alexander, Evangelic Christians missionary conversions, British et al and we are still over 800 Million Hindus in the world.

It's been possible to be the longest surviving civilization in the world only because of the strong fundamentals and ground work of Sanatan Vedic Dharm done by our Rishi Munis (seers), our Gods avtar (incarnation on Earth) like Baman ji, Shri Ram ji, Shri Krishna ji and it's Sanatan Vedic Dharm Anuyayi's (misnomers: Hindus) big heart to still let at least 4 other religions (Jain, Buddhist, Sikh, et al) to originate and also assimilate other fellow sect of most oppressed people in the world, the Jews, Parsi, Zohrashtrians et al, by letting them settle with peace and honor in Bharat. So don't tell us Hindus, if we are "Secular" or not. We don't need your certificate.

Following is a debate on "Is Secularism the Solution to Communal Conflict in India?" at Rethinking Religion in India in 2009. Its a nine part series but I am posting only two important parts in which Prof. S.N. Balagangadhara and Dr. Jakob De Roover of Ghent University, Belgium presented their views on how to define Secularism.

Tears of Bareilly - Muslim led riots burnt Hindu houses

On March 3, 2010 Muslim-led riots broke out in Bareilly/Bareli/बरेली, Uttar Pradesh, Bharat (misnomer: India) as thousands of Muslims attacked Hindus and burnt their houses & shops. Police acted as a mute spectator. Why did the Muslim riots break out? What was the reason? Because on Muslim's Prophet Mohamed's birthday a Jihadist Radical Imam Tauqeer Raza Khan allegedly made Anti-Hindu hate speeches to incite violence & was arrested. Later on Union Minister Prakash Jaiswal of conservative Muslim Congress party's order to UP Chief Minister Mayawati that communal Jihadi Imam was released. Which resulted in even more Muslim riots as Islamic extremists got a moral boost that Congress & Mayawati Government gave into their communal pressure.

• Jaiswal asks Mayawati to release Sunni cleric
• Jaiswal asks Mayawati to release Sunni cleric
• Jaiswal asks Mayawati to release Sunni cleric

Following are many ground reality videos "Tears of Bareilly" shot by witnesses as conniving main stream Bharatiya (misnomer: Indian) media conspicuously blacked out reporting about this extremist Muslims led riot.

Jihadi Riot in Bareilly, Where are the Media Giants?

Thousands of Islamic terrorists riot in Bareilly

Bareilly burns amid Barelwi triumph

It is now two weeks since parts of Bareilly was placed under curfew. The trouble that started when a Juloos-e-Muhammadi procession (a procession taken out to mark the birthday of Prophet Muhammad) insisted on marching through a communally sensitive locality escalated and seems to have ignited the simmering animosity between Hindus and Muslims in this sleepy, small city in Uttar Pradesh.

Bareilly has nearly 34% Muslims but, within the city, the proportion is much higher. Within Muslims, it is the Barelwis, who are, and have traditionally been, the numerical majority. Deobandis and other reformist traditions within Indian Islam are a minority here although their numbers are growing.

Perhaps the matter would not have escalated to the extent that it did, had the police been perceived as being even handed. First they arrested Maulana Tauqeer Raza Khan, one of the most important Maulanas of the Barelwis in India. Resident in Bareilly, Tauqeer Raza Khan is a direct descendant of Ahmad Riza Khan, who is revered by the Barelwis throughout the subcontinent. Some Muslims claimed this proved the partiality of the police as they did not arrest any other ‘prominent’ person from the Hindu community.

May be the importance of Tauqeer Raza dawned upon the police much later -- or the political pressure from above saw to it that he was freed. But the damage had been done by then. The problem got murkier because parties as varied as the Congress, the BSP and the SP want to court Tauqeer Raza. The result is going to be polarization between the two communities, and the net gainer, amidst all this, would be Tauqeer Raza himself.

It is important to know some things about him. Some years ago, he came out of the All India Muslim Personal Law Board and formed a new board, styled as AIMPLB - Jadeed (or modern) under his leadership. Of course, there was hardly anything modern about this Board; it was as retrograde as the AIMPLB. The Maulana also runs an organization called Ittehad-e-Millat (Council of Muslim Unity), although given half a chance; he would pronounce those not following his interpretation of Islam as being not Muslim enough. Thus Deobandis and the Ahle Hadis are not Muslim enough and it is not permissible for Muslims to pray behind imams (prayer leaders) of such denominations. Can there be a better way to create Muslim unity? The Maulana is also infamous for offering a Rs five lakh reward to anyone who killed Taslima Nasreen, allegedly for giving a bad name to Islam.

And yet, at the same time, Tauqeer Raza and his group, the Barelwis, are a besieged lot. Some months ago, in a meeting of prominent Barelwis, Tauqeer Raza gave a call to all Barelwi Muslims to ‘liberate’ their mosques and madrasas from the clutches of the Deobandis. It is a fact of Indian Muslims, that while the Deobandis are the numerical minority, they enjoy disproportionate power. Prominent Muslim bodies such as the AIMPLB are dominated by the Deobandis and various governments have courted them with an eye on the Muslim vote. Locally, the Deobandis are much better organized and through their network or madrasas and movements such as the Tabligh Jamaat, they are winning over considerable sections of the Barelwis Muslims.

The Barelwi leadership thus has much to feel threatened about. With more and more Muslims becoming Deobandis, there is a real danger that the source of patronage from believing Muslims will decline which would make the Barelwi leadership obsolete. Within Bareilly itself, mosques have become the sites of an ideological battle with the Barelwis accusing Deobandis of usurping their mosques.
