Replacing Erdogan with Fethullah Gulen
“You must move in the arteries of the system without anyone noticing your existence until you reach all the power centers … until the conditions are ripe, they [the followers] must continue like this … The time is not yet right. You must wait for the time when you are complete and conditions are ripe.” —Fethullah Gülen June 1999
The philosophy of our service is that we open a house somewhere and, with the patience of a spider, we lay our web to wait for people to get caught in the web; and we teach those who do. We don't lay the web to eat or consume them but to show them the way to their resurrection, to blow life into their dead bodies and souls, to give them a life. —Fethullah Gülen July 2007

It has been brought to my attention it could possibly be dangerous exposing anything about Gülen. Not that I think my writings are that important, but I do thank my friends for informing me about the abduction of the Turkish journalist who was going to write a book about Gulen’s “private” life. Haydar Meric was found dead at sea 18 days after having been abducted. For as much information as I have found, that must mean there is a great deal more out there to be able to write a book.
Continuing to deny not having any affiliation with his Charter schools, Institutions and Foundations, Gulen stated on his application for permanent residency in 2007 his position as the Founder and Head of The Gulen Movement having overseen the establishment of a conglomeration of schools throughout the world, in Europe, Central Asia, and the United States – also listing numerous Institutions and Foundations.
Then in 2010 in an interview with USA Today, Gülen stated, "It is well-known that I have no relation with any institution in the form of ownership, board membership, or any similar kind. I do not approve that those who are familiar with and share these ideas and opinions to any extent, or the institutions they work at, should be viewed as connected with my person." Really?
In 1999, Turkish television aired footage of Gülen delivering a sermon to a crowd of followers in which he revealed his aspirations for an Islamist Turkey ruled by Shari‘a as well as the methods that should be used to attain that goal. One particular part caught my attention in regard to schools: “When everything was closed and all doors were locked, our houses of isik [light] assumed a mission greater than that of older times. In the past, some of the duties of these houses were carried out by madrasas [Islamic schools], some by schools, some by tekkes [Islamist lodges] … These isik homes had to be the schools, had to be madrasas, [had to be] tekkes all at the same time. The permission did not come from the state, or the state's laws, or the people who govern us. The permission was given by God who wanted His name learned and talked about, studied, and discussed in those houses, as it used to be in the mosques.”
This should be the notice to all parents of Gülen Charter schools in America that they are using our schools for indoctrination.
In 2009, the Citizens for National Security (CNFS) presented their lengthy report on a high school pro-Islam History book to a large group in Orlando, FL after an extensive analysis of history books being used around the state. They had focused on the textbook “World History” by Prentice Hall. Noticeably, Islam was in and Christianity was out. I was at that gathering.
Over 27 Florida History and Social Studies textbooks being used at the time of the study showed over 200 false or misleading statements. In one 7th grade History book there were 34 pages regarding Islam and Sharia and NOTHING in regard to Christianity. Our goal as parents in working with GNFS was to ask the schools to supply the teachers with a supplemental booklet with corrections – all district superintendents contacted refused.
School superintendents when asked about the “World History” book stated they didn’t choose what the school was to use the state did. Then the state said “no that’s not true, all we do is give the districts a list of acceptable books and the districts choose.” I won’t bore you with you with who assessed the books.
With the support of the CIA, Gülen in his move to obtain permanent residency in the U.S. was referred to by the U.S. State Department as a “radical Islamist” and at the same time investigations have proven he is a true, dyed-in-the-wool Islamist who wishes to transform the U.S. and Turkey into Sharia states and return to the Ottoman Empire.
Just three years ago, Time magazine had Gülen listed as one of the 100 most influential people in the world. His congregation’s from around the world are estimated to be from 3 to 6 million people and the worth of his schools and affiliated institutions to be worth billions.
However, Gülen and his followers appear to wear masks hiding their real intentions in regard to their beliefs and purpose. Each passing day, contradiction between their smiling masks and their accumulated hatred, goals, lies, deceptions, cheating, manipulations, and anger becomes clearer. Americans are beginning to see as the rest of the world this is not a man of peace as portrayed by the CIA.
By our government allowing this manipulating man and his organizations to use our children through education to further their cause is definitely not living up to their oath of office to “protect and defend”.
Although Gülen is portrayed in this country as a protagonist of moderate Islam and a peacemaker who invented the inter-religious dialogues, his Movement hopes to reach non-Muslims (our children), people for whom Gülen and his followers wear interfaith dialogue masks, especially outside Turkey, to show them that his interpretation of Islam is different than that of any other Muslims. Those who study Islam know that Islam is Islam, and there is no such thing as moderate or contemporary Islam because the Quran is the main source of Islam, so that any genuine Muslim will follow the interpretations of the Quran, not those of Gülen.
Gülen has always looked to make his associations with other strong men. He has put on the mask of being an anti-communist which is what gained him favor of the CIA in the first place.
When Gülenists opened their schools and businesses in Central Asia after the fall of Communism in 1989, there were two sects of Muslims that were trying to influence the new independent states in the post-Soviet era, the Iranian Shi’a sect of Islam and Gülen’s version of Islam. The CIA chose Gülen.
Gülen is now also faced with being in opposition to Turkey’s most powerful politician, Recep Erdogan. In the past they were seen as friends but today they each have their own thoughts and agenda as to the direction of Islam. Gulen accuses the Turkish government of not being transparent and then wears his victim’s mask to gain the support (financial) from the government and wealthy businessmen.
For 17 years from his hide-a-way in the Poconos Mountains Gülen has run his global empire all the while plotting to overturn the Turkish government while at the same time his schools indoctrinate our children into the world of Islam.
Gülen is a mind controlling, dishonest cult and our government is protecting him from the top down. Gülen has even hinted to his followers that Erdogan will die soon, and then everything will be fine, that they just need to be patient, because their victory is close like the victory of their prophet Mohammed.
Make no mistake, the seditious effort by the Muslim Brotherhood to not only take over the U.S. and the rest of the world by “destroying from within” by using a “civilian jihad”, is exactly how the cultist organization overseen by Gülen is operating.
Take the time to read the Center for Security Policy’s new book: “The Gulen Movement: Turkey’s Islamic Supremacist Cult and Its Contribution to Civilization Jihad in America.”
Gülen’s beginning as an Imam was to middle class Turks and has grown into millions following his thoughts on the path to Islam and plenty of funding.
In 1976 Gülen and his followers opened up the first dormitory/school and proceeded to become one of the best high schools in the country. They began adding more schools and then moved on to college preparatory courses. In 1991 a group of Gülenist businessmen established the first international school in Azerbaijan. They soon spread to Mexico and Japan.
This is how the “Project” was implemented – if we can do it in these few countries why not all over the world. “We will educate them teaching our doctrine at the same time and when they come out of universities we will help them get jobs and even into politics in various countries.” Having once been told what a marvelous idea this whole thing was, Gülen replied “I never claimed that this project came out of my head … These are all blessings of Allah.”
In 1979 he and his “followers” founded Kaynak Holding comprised of 23 companies in a variety of industries ranging from retail to information technology. This past November, 2015 Turkish “caretakers” forcibly took over the companies belonging to Kaynak Holding due to alleged ties with U.S.-based scholar Fethullah Gülen, a former government ally now considered the head of the “Fethullah Terror Org.” (FETÖ).
On September 1, 2015 police raided more than 20 media outlets of Koza Ipek Holding, including mining companies Koza Altin and Koza Anadolu and the Ankara office of Bugün newspaper which on that day had titled with photo-backed accusations of a weapon supply to Islamic State (ISIL) militants at the Turkish border town of Akçakale. The company is considered associated with a network of followers of Fethullah Gülen. In an ongoing investigation the chairman, Akin Ipek and others of the holding company were being accus of “giving financial support to the "Fetullah Terror Organization (FETÖ)" and conducting its propaganda.”
March 2016, the Turkish government seized the newspaper Zaman, sponsored by the Feza Media Group on the grounds that the media outlets supported terrorism based on their affiliation with the Justice and Development Party (AKP) enemy, the Fethullah Gülen Movement. It is believed by outsiders that these seizures were merely a means to take control of Gülen’s assets.
In March, 2016, another report was released and sponsored by the Bipartisan Policy Center which had Morton Abramowitz, Eric Edelman and Blaise Misztal once again criticizing Erdogan for his treatment of the Turkish media and his government’s seizure of businesses related to Gülen. The Bipartisan Policy Center was formed in 2007 by former Senate Majority Leaders Howard Baker, Tom Daschle, Bob Dole, and George Mitchell.
Former handlers of Gülen Graham Fuller and Morton Abramowitz can say all they want in support of Gülen, but Americans are not as stupid as you wish they were – at least not the ones educated before you started your big push for “Dumbing Down America”.
Fethullah Gülen continually argues he has no direct connection to the Charter schools, Foundation or Institutes here in the United States. We as Americans must take responsibility for him being here because we have not stopped the corruption and deceit in Washington.
Peace Islands Institute website will tell you “The Gulen movement, named after the prominent Turkish scholar Fethullah Gulen, has a sphere of influence on the global scale. Active in more than a hundred countries with schools and intercultural centers, the Gulen movement is considered to be one of the most significant social movements that arose from the Muslim world.
The balance of the Home page will give you a pure explanation of “The Gülen Movement, Dialogue and Tolerance “, but of course according to Gülen himself he will still contend he is not connected to any of this. Isn’t this a little like the “pot calling the kettle black”?
To remind you, as of August 2000, Islamic leader Fethullah Gülen became a wanted man. He was indicted in Turkey for "attempting to change the characteristics of the “Republic of Turkey" by allegedly trying to establish a theocratic Islamic state. A “theocratic” Islamic state is a form of government in which the civil law is defined by their religious dictate.
The prosecutor also alleged that Gülen attempted to "infiltrate" the military. The Government is seeking a maximum 10-year sentence based on Turkey's Anti-Terror Law. At the time of the indictment, the Chief of the Turkish General Staff said publicly that Gülen "plans to undermine the State" and has supporters in the civil service. Gülen, who the CIA brought to the United States in 1999, was tried in absentia and is a wanted man in Turkey. The CIA knew this was going to happen so they brought him to the U.S. “protecting their operative” and since in office Obama has refused Turkey’s request to send him back to Turkey.
In the meantime, he continues to make a fortune off of America’s tax dollars.
Gülen’s hide-a-way in the Pocono’s was purchased sometime around 1989 by a US-based Turkish association who bought a 150-acre farm in Saylorsburg, Pennsylvania, for $250,000. He has said in the past he considers his time in the U.S. as “imprisonment” but refuses to return to Turkey. He told journalist Mercan he would return when the conditions are ripe.
I think with all the information out there Americans should say enough is enough. We want Fethullah Gülen out of this country or at least let the FBI do their job and file their lawsuits against his organizations and the CIA get out of the whole thing. But this isn’t going to happen because they want to use Gülen to their own ends and they don’t care if he is using American taxpayer $$ to do it.
The Fethullah Terror Organization (FETÖ) was established in the Netherlands and originates from the Gülen Movement, which evolved from a faith-based group into a politically-motivated one which relies heavily on aid from the Turkish business world, some of whose members have pledged allegiance to Fethullah Gülen.
Do not misunderstand me – Erdogan is certainly not clean as been shown in the past couple of years. The two men continually are trying to bring the other down, however both would like to see Turkey go back to the Ottoman Empire. In 2015 Erdogan and his government held another trial against Gülen finding him guilty of multiple charges mostly around taking over the Turkish government. He was found guilty and was sentenced to life in prison.
Arrests have been ongoing of any businesses or financiers known to be funding or funneling monies through to the Gülen Movement and that includes employees of the Bank Asya a lender to Gülen.
Bank Asya - Prosecutors accused them of committing fraud from charities linked to the Gülen Movement under a scheme called "himmet”."Himmet refers to money collected as a charity from unsuspecting followers of the Movement, which prosecutors allege is then secretly funneled to Gülen-linked companies to finance the terrorist organization's illegal activities.
I don’t know if the man is guilty or not to the charges in Turkey, but the charges there sound very much like what Americans are saying in America about Gülen.

UN ANNOUNCES SUPPORT FOR OBAMA'S NATIONALIZATION OF POLICE~CALLS FOR SUPERCEDING U.S. CONSTITUTION & LAWS

UN ANNOUNCES SUPPORT FOR OBAMA'S NATIONALIZATION OF POLICE 
BY ALEX NEWMAN
SEE: http://www.thenewamerican.com/world-news/north-america/item/23799-un-announces-support-for-obama-s-nationalization-of-policerepublished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:

After recently demanding everything from “robust gun control” and reparations for slavery to constitutional amendments altering the supreme law of the land, the United Nations has now publicly endorsed the Obama administration's illegal efforts to federalize America's local police departments. A UN official also offered to provide “technical assistance” to the U.S. government in implementing its radical demands.   
Specifically, a UN official from Kenya touted one of the many schemes used by the White House to impose unconstitutional federal regulations on local law enforcement. Dubbed “consent decrees,” the plot involves extremist bureaucrats at the Obama Justice Department threatening, bullying, and suing city governments into submission to Obama's demands. The UN “lawyer” called for the administration's commandeering of cops to be “beefed up” and “increased” to help nationalize as many of America's police departments as possible.
Citing “international law,” the UN figure also attacked gun rights and the concealed carry of firearms. The latest UN assault on the God-given rights to keep and bear arms, protected by state and U.S. constitutions, came after a deluge of similar attacks coming from the global body, and its widely ridiculed “Human Rights Council” in particular. While the U.S. government is not currently represented, some of the most ruthless communist and Islamist dictatorships on the planet enjoy seats on the outfit
The UN bureaucrat boasted of the Obama administration's “cooperation” in the supposed investigation. However, the reaction to the UN's attacks was swift, with criticism of the UN, often ridiculed by critics as the “dictators club,” making headlines across America after being posted on the Drudge Report, the world's top news and information site.  
The bizarre attacks on fundamental freedoms, local police, and America's federalist system of self-government under the U.S. Constitution were made following a recent official visit by a representative of the dictator-dominated UN “Human Rights Council.” The demands were issued by radical Kenyan lawyer Maina Kiai, whose formal title is UN “Special Rapporteur on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association.”
“The Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice has provided oversight and recommendations for improvement of police services in a number of cities with consent decrees,” the UN “Special Rapporteur” said in his initial findings. “This is one of the most effective ways to reduce discrimination in law enforcement and it needs to be beefed up and increased to cover as many of the 18,000-plus local law enforcement jurisdictions.”
As The New American has been reporting for many years, the executive branch has been abusing its power by threatening local police departments with lawsuits and then bullying them into accepting unconstitutional federal standards. Ironically, the DOJ cites the unconstitutional Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act to engage in the bullying — the very same Clinton-Biden law now blasted by race-mongers such as Kiai as racist due to the mass incarceration of black Americans under the “three strikes” scheme — to pursue the illegal federalization. After being threatened, local jurisdictions, faced with the overwhelming resources of the out-of-control federal government in biased federal courts, often simply agree to submit to federal regulations under “consent decrees” instead of fighting a long and costly legal battle to maintain their independence from the White House.    
“The Obama administration has been especially aggressive in pushing this DOJ takeover of local policing,”The New American reported in its special issue, Police Under Fire, published last year exposing the real agenda behind nationalizing and attacking the police. Indeed, the Obama administration has been boasting about the abuses in press releases, bragging in 2014, for example, that it had bullied 15 police departments into agreements, including nine consent decrees of the sort touted by the UN bureaucrat. Citizens and police in New Orleans, Portland (Oregon), Detroit, Albuquerque, East Haven (Connecticut), Warren (Ohio), Puerto Rico, and more have all been victimized by the illegal scheme.  
The dangerous calls for trashing America's system of government by nationalizing the police, which are supposed to be accountable to local communities rather than Obama, was hardly the only extremism exhibited by the UN lawyer. Among other bizarre theories, Kiai also argued that gun rights were not compatible with freedom of assembly. In America, of course, freedom of assembly is protected in the Constitution's First Amendment, while gun rights are enshrined in the Second Amendment. Historically, the rights have been complimentary, with the right to keep and bear arms being seen as necessary to the security of a free state in which everyone is free to peaceably assemble, speak freely, and so on.
For Kiai, though, despite the fact that the rights have been co-existing just fine for more than two centuries in America, gun rights need to go in the interest of UN-defined pseudo-“human rights” revocable under virtually any pretext. “I wish to underscore the challenges of exercising the right to peaceful assembly when there is open or concealed carriage of guns,” he said. Ironically, perhaps, he pointed to Ferguson, Missouri, where members of the pro-Constitution Oath Keepers law enforcement group — falsely demonized as “white people” by the UN extremist — helped protect businesses from looters and rioters.
The UN bureaucrat also claimed unnamed “police” supported his warped view, despite their oath to the Constitution, because it was “scary” to know that protesters might be carrying concealed weapons. “Under international law [sic], the peaceful character of a protest is largely determined by the intent of the organizers and participants,” Kiai claimed, without citing which “international law” he was referring to, or what made this alleged global “law” effective in America. “There is no need for peaceful protesters to carry intimidating guns.”
Continuing with the references to what he views as “international law,” Kiai also claimed the UN's views on labor and unions should override the views of Americans as expressed through their elected representatives. “International human rights law explicitly sets out the rights of workers,” the UN “special rapporteur” claimed. In particular, he said, illegal immigrants, who he called “undocumented migrants,” were not having their alleged right to a union respected by employers or local authorities. “Crossing national borders — whether legally or otherwise — does not take away these rights,” he said.    
The ignorance displayed throughout the anti-American screed was stunning. Among other examples, Kiai mistakenly referred to America as “one of the oldest democracies in the world.” In the real world, of course, America's founders abhorred democracy, or mob rule, preferring instead to set up a republic in which the rule of law would protect the God-given rights of Americans.  
Critics, though, slammed the UN comments, and the Obama administration's stealth efforts to illegally commandeer American police departments. “The UN Human Rights Council, on which China and Venezuela and Cuba sit, is urging the Department of Justice to nationalize as many as 18,000 local police jurisdictions,”said Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning. “That is appalling on its face, but what’s worse is Justice has already been regulating local police for years. These sue and settle lawsuits have been implemented in Newark, N.J., Miami, Fla., Los Angeles, Calif., Ferguson, Mo., Chicago, Ill. and others. Requirements include how searches are conducted, the use of force, the mandatory use of on-body cameras by the police, and so on. The agreements impose years-long compliance review regimes and implementation deadlines and regular reviews by federal bureaucrats.”
“The Obama administration has been pursuing these cases for years, and it has largely gone unnoticed,” Manning said. “Congress never authorized federal regulation of local police departments and if Obama had requested it legislatively, they likely would have said no. The DOJ has been taking over local police under Congress’ noses using an expansive interpretation of federal law. The ball was dropped but now it must be picked up and Congress needs to stop the nationalizing of local police departments. The fact that the UN Human Rights Council — which includes some of the worst abusers of human rights in the world that hate the U.S. — is cheering for this DOJ national takeover of the police should tell members everything they need to know.”
“It’s time to support local police, not render them impotent via federal restrictions against maintaining law and order,” Manning concluded. “No less than the very existence of local government is at stake.”
In an article in LifeZette that was picked up by the Drudge Report and countless other media outlets across America, senior editor Robert Romano of Americans for Limited Government echoed those concerns, giving the UN and its extremism another major black eye.  
Even while calling for American police to be nationalized, though, the UN is going even further. Among other programs, the outfit is now working on building up its own international “law enforcement” capabilities. With its so-called “peacekeeping” military troops facing outrage worldwide for raping and exploiting children with impunity, the UN's push to expand and further empower its UN “police” force, known as UNPOL, would appear to be especially ill advised. At the same time, though, the controversial global organization is working to usurp more influence over existing national police forces. This June, the UN even brought together more than 100 national police chiefs at its first-ever UN “Chiefs of Police Summit” (UN COPS).
Fortunately, there is a very simple solution to the UN and its outrageous meddling in American affairs: an American exit, or Amexit, from the UN. Legislation sitting in Congress, dubbed the American Sovereignty Restoration Act (H.R. 1205), would not only end U.S. involvement with the UN, it would also evict the scandal-plagued outfit's headquarters from U.S. soil. With the UN's attacks on policeconstitutionally protected liberties and even the American system of government becoming increasingly extreme, Americans should re-double their efforts to get the United States out of the UN with an Amexit. At the same time, as this magazine has advocated for decades, Americans should continue working to support their local police, and keep them independent of federal control.

A Circumvention Of The U.S. Constitution

Published on Aug 9, 2016
The United States is being handed over to the United Nations. Obama recently announced that he will bypass Congress and seek a United Nations Security Council resolution to outsource the United States nuclear policy to an International Body. The Daily Caller reports "The Joint Comprehensive Plan Of Action (JCPOA) does not require Congressional approval, but likely binds future U.S. government policy towards Iran."

Obama’s U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch wants to federalize the nation's police with the United Nations backed Strong Cities Network. An infiltration of communities across America with nefarious new world order intentions.

In 1999 Lynch was appointed by Bill Clinton to head the U.S. Attorney's office in New York and In 2002, according to Lynch's bio, she " joined Hogan & Hartson LLP (now Hogan Lovells) as a partner in the firm’s New York office. While in private practice, Ms. Lynch performed extensive pro bonowork for the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, established to prosecute those responsible for human rights violations in the 1994 genocide in that country.

Human rights violations where between 500,000 and 1 million Rwandans were killed by their own countrymen. Bill Clinton apologized for standing by silently and doing nothing. The same company, Hogan Lovells, employed Gold Star Father and recent Trump annoyance Khazir Khan. Lynch and Khan come from the Clinton Foundation stable of attorneys tied to Saudi Arabia, the Muslim Brotherhood, and a who’s who of foreign dictators.

Be forewarned America. With Hillary in the White House, the Clinton's and any of their lackeys will seek to hijack any all crisis for their own benefit. And with Saudi Arabia reportedly funding 20% of Hillary's campaign. It is vitally important to the aforementioned and other Clinton plants that Sharia law circumvent the U.S. Constitution. And with the recent arrest of a DC Metro officer assisting ISIS....Alarm bells should be ringing as to the scale of the infiltration by a radical jihadist network operating at all levels of our government.

8,000 SYRIAN REFUGEES ENTER U.S. AS OBAMA LOOKS TO MEET GOAL OF 10,000~UP TO 200 OR MORE JIHADISTS PER STATE

8,000 SYRIAN REFUGEES ENTER U.S. 
AS OBAMA LOOKS TO MEET GOAL

The Obama administration expects to hit its goal of admitting 10,000 Syrian refugees to the U.S. by the end of September, officials said Friday.
“We can now say we have welcomed 8,000 Syrian refugees so far this year and we are very confident we will welcome at least 10,000 refugees from Syria by the end of this fiscal year,” Anne Richard, assistant secretary of state for the Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration, said in a conference call with reporters.
Delivery on the president’s pledge to admit 10,000 refugees reflects a dramatic increase in admissions in recent weeks. In the first six months after President Barack Obama’s announcement of the goal last Sept. 10, only about 1,200 Syrian refugees resettled in the U.S. The government has denied about 7 percent of applications under its Syrian refugee program, with another 13 percent held up by “outstanding concerns,” said Leon Rodriguez, director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
The pace of admissions was initially hampered by an extensive, months-long screening process intended to prevent anyone with links to terrorist networks or Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s regime from entering the country.
Still, top Republicans — led by Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump — have warned that the U.S. risks allowing terrorists to slip into the country as part of the program. Critics of the effort point to recent terrorist attacks, including the killing of a French priest and a bombing at a German music festival, as evidence of the danger posed by refugees.
Trump once proposed a temporary ban on all Muslim immigration to the U.S.; after drawing bipartisan criticism, he subsequently proposed blocking immigration from countries with a “proven history” of terrorism. Other than Syria, he has not specified what countries would meet that definition.
“We’re letting people come in from terrorist nations that shouldn’t be allowed,” Trump said Thursday at a rally in Portland, Maine. “This could be the great Trojan horse of all time.”
The White House has said that the U.S. focuses its refugee admissions on individuals with existing links to America, as well as women and children facing persecution or in desperate need of medical care. The screening process averages 12 to 18 months and includes biometric data and reviews by multiple law enforcement and intelligence agencies.
Reaching the goal will bolster Obama as he seeks to corral additional support for refugees at a Sept. 20 summit he is hosting at the United Nations. Obama wants to persuade other countries to increase global financing for refugees by 30 percent, double the amount spent to resettle refugees, and increase the number of refugees in school and in work by 1 million, according to the White House.



KHIZR KHAN HISTORY OF SUPPORTING SHARIA EXECUTIONS~KHIZR KAHN, TRUMP, AND THE "REAL STORY"

KHIZR KHAN SUPPORTS SHARIA EXECUTIONS

Democratic Convention Star Khizr Khan Has History of Defending Sharia

BY WARREN MASS
SEE: http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/politics/item/23794-democratic-convention-star-khizr-khan-has-history-of-defending-shariarepublished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
Khzir Khan, the Pakistani-born lawyer (and “gold star father”) who received national attention following his speech at this year’s Democratic National Convention, during which he attacked Republican presidential nominee, Donald Trump, by name, has a history of defending Sharia — the Islamic legal system — going back as far as 1983. During that year, Khan defended (at least in concept) Sharia in an academic paper titled “Juristic Classification of Islamic Law,” which he wrote while studying in Saudi Arabia:
The invariable and basic rules of Islamic law are only those prescribed in the Shari’ah (Quran and Sunnah), which are few and limited. All other juridical works which have been written during more than thirteen centuries are very rich and indispensable, but they must always be subordinated to the Shari’ahand open to reconsideration by all Muslims. [Emphasis added.]
Taking into consideration that “Juristic Classification of Islamic Law” was written as an academic paper, and as such, presents arguments on both sides of each issue for consideration, the reader must determine which side Khan advocates — adhering strictly to Sharia or “reconsidering” other judicial works interpretively. One opinion on this was offered by a journalist with impressive credentials — Paul E. Sperry, who was a media fellow at the Hoover Institution, and previously was the Washington Bureau Chief at Investor's Business Dailyand WorldNetDaily. In his recent analysis of Khan’s paper, Sperry observed that Khan explained that Sharia is derived from the Quran and Sunnah, and that the Quran “is the absolute authority from which springs the very conception of legality and every legal obligation.”
Khan also noted that Quranic law includes “constitutional law,” writing: “Family law is laid down in 70 injunctions; civil law in another 70; penal law in 30; jurisdiction and procedure in 13; constitutional law in 10; international relations in 25; and economic and financial order in 10.”
Presumably, “all other judicial works,” which Khan said must always be subordinated to the Sharia under Islamic law, include the U.S. Constitution, which Kahn pointed to during his harangue at the convention:
Donald Trump, you are asking Americans to trust you with their future. Let me ask you: Have you even read the United States Constitution? I will gladly lend you my copy. In this document, look for the words “liberty” and “equal protection of law.”
Trump responded:
While I feel deeply for the loss of his son, Mr. Khan who has never met me, has no right to stand in front of millions of people and claim I have never read the Constitution, which is false, and say many other inaccurate things.
Had it not been for the fact that Khan and his wife, Ghazala, were the parents of Captain Humayun S. M. Khan — who was killed in Iraq in 2004 after an explosive-laden vehicle drove into the gate of his compound while he was inspecting soldiers on guard duty — the speech would have been dismissed as just so such partisan rhetoric. However Khan’s status as a “Gold Star Father” has granted him apparent bullet-proof immunity from any and all criticism, especially from Trump. Like most people, Americans honor their fallen warriors, and such honor is often extended to the families of fallen soldiers, whether the families have done anything to deserve such honor or not. It is simply considered poor form to say anything that might cause more emotional suffering to those who grieve.
While it might legitimately be said that Khan’s very public condemnation of Trump invited a response, the mass media and political figures disagree. And the criticism of Trump’s response to Khan has come not only from Democrats, but from prominent Republicans, as well.
Speaking aboard Air Force One, White House Principal Deputy Press Secretary Eric Schultz, while not addressing any specific portions of Trump’s comments about Khan or his wife (about whom, Trump said: “I’d like to hear his wife say something.”) said honoring Gold Star families should rise “above politics.”
“Families who make the ultimate sacrifice for this country’s freedom and this country’s safety deserve nothing but our country’s honor and gratitude and deepest respect,” Schultz said.
While statements of that sort might be expected from a member of the Obama administration, some Republicans also jumped on the bandwagon. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said in a statement: “This is going to a place where we’ve never gone before, to push back against the families of the fallen.”
The GOP’s 2008 presidential nominee, Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.), issued a lengthy a statement on August 1 that said in part:
In recent days, Donald Trump disparaged a fallen soldier's parents. He has suggested that the likes of their son should not be allowed in the United States — to say nothing of entering its service. I cannot emphasize enough how deeply I disagree with Mr. Trump's statement. I hope Americans understand that the remarks do not represent the views of our Republican Party, its officers, or candidates….
I claim no moral superiority over Donald Trump. I have a long and well-known public and private record for which I will have to answer at the Final Judgment, and I repose my hope in the promise of mercy and the moderation of age. I challenge the nominee to set the example for what our country can and should represent.
Speaking of McCain’s “public and private record,” since he took such great pains to chastise Trump for what he regarded as inappropriate comments toward the family of a fallen soldier, we wonder if McCain has erased from his memory the ungallant way in which he acted toward Dolores Apodaca Alfond, chairwoman of the National Alliance of POW/MIA Families, whose pilot brother Captain Victor Apodaca was missing in action in North Vietnam. One would think that McCain, a former Navy pilot who was shot down and held as a POW in North Vietnam for five and a half years would have felt great empathy for Alfond and treated her with as much respect and courtesy as he expects Trump to show toward the Khans. But that was not the case.
An article in U.S. Veterans Dispatch describes the meeting between the senator and the sister of the MIA. Unfortunately our space here is limited and the article is lengthy, but a few excerpts swill suffice to present the picture:
Apodaca … was offering testimony critical of the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs. [McCain] rushed into the hearing room to confront her.
 [McCain was] angry and his voice very loud, he accused her of making “allegations ... that are patently and totally false and deceptive.”
Making a fist, he shook his index finger at her and said she had insulted an emissary to Vietnam sent by President Bush. He said she had insulted other MIA families with her remarks. And then he said, through clenched teeth: “And I am sick and tired of you insulting mine and other people’s [patriotism] who happen to have different views than yours.”
By this time, tears were running down Alfond’s cheeks. She reached into her handbag for a handkerchief. She tried to speak: “The family members have been waiting for years — years! And now you’re shutting down.” He kept interrupting her. She tried to say, through tears, that she had issued no insults. He kept talking over her words. He said she was accusing him and others of “some conspiracy without proof, and some cover-up.” She said she was merely seeking “some answers. That is what I am asking.” He ripped into her for using the word “fiasco.” She replied: “The fiasco was the people that stepped out and said we have written the end, the final chapter to Vietnam.” “No one said that,” he shouted. “No one said what you are saying they said, Ms. Alfond.” And then, his face flaming pink, [McCain] stalked out of the room, to shouts of disfavor from members of the audience.
McCain and others criticized Trump for defending himself against Khan’s charges made before a nationwide audience at the Democratic National Convention, but no one has suggested that Trump verbally browbeat Mrs. Khan to the point of reducing her to tears!
But returning to Khan — is he merely the father of a war hero who has been unfairly persecuted, or does he have personal baggage that should be called into question?
A report in Breitbart notes that in 1983, the same year he wrote "Juristic Classification of Islamic Law,”  Khan wrote a very sympathetic review of a book compiled from a seminar held in Kuwait called “Human Rights In Islam” in which he pointedly praised the keynote address of Allah K. Brohi, a Pakistani pro-jihad Islamic jurist who was one of the closest advisors to Pakistan’s former dictator General Zia ul-Haq — who is regarded as the father of the Taliban movement.
During the time he served as Pakistani minister of law and religious affairs, Brohi enacted a strict form of Sharia in the nation, bringing back Sharia punishments, such as amputations for theft and demands that rape victims produce four male witnesses or face adultery charges. He also made insulting the Muslim prophet Muhammad a crime punishable by death. Brohi and Zia also issued a law that required judges to consult mullahs on every judicial decision for Sharia compliance.
Breitbart reported that in his book review, Khan, far from taking issue with Brohi’s extreme interpretation of human rights, asserted that Brohi “successfully” explains them and argues his points “convincingly.” (The review lists Khan as “director” of an Islamic center in Houston, and was published in the Texas International Law Journal.)
“The keynote speech of Dr. A.K. Brohi, former Pakistani minister of legal and religious affairs, is a hallmark in this book,” Khan wrote in his review. “It successfully explains the Islamic concepts of ‘right’ and ‘just’ in comparison to their Christian and Judaic counterparts.”
Since Khan is obviously sympathetic to the Islamic concept of what is right and just, in comparison with the Judeo-Christian concept expressed in our Declaration of Independence and protected in our Constitution, one wonders on what grounds Khan dared to challenge Trump’s understanding of the Constitution.
As the Breitbart writer summarized Khan’s position: “In context, Khan concurs that human rights can only be guaranteed through the establishment of Sharia’s moral and legal code.”
Another article about Khan’s past posted by Infowars.com notes that Khan co-founded the Journal of Contemporary Issues in Muslim Law, “an academic periodical that seeks to defend the arcane Sharia law to a legal system based on Western jurisprudence.” 
It was smart politics for the Democrats to have enlisted Khan as their mouthpiece to taunt Trump and elicit his response, which was characteristically imprudent and politically damaging. But their ploy was designed to accomplish more than scoring some points against Trump.
A more important goal was discussed in a recent article in The New American, which quoted from journalists Theodore Shoebat and Walid Shoebat [proprietors of Shoebat.com], who — after pointing out that Khan once wrote a paper entitled "In Defense of OPEC" — expressed their opinion: “It is likely that Khan is a Muslim plant working with the Hillary Clinton campaign, probably for the interest of Muslim oil companies as well as Muslim immigration into the U.S.”
The Shoebats continued with their theory: “It is obvious that Khan is upset, that a Trump victory will eliminate and destroy decades of hard work to bring in Islamic immigration into the United States which was spearheaded by agents in Saudi Arabia like Khan and Huma Abedin’s father (Sayed Z. Abedin).”
As The New American observed, “Whether or not the above is accurate, it certainly is true that Hillary Clinton will, just as her former boss Barack Obama has done, encourage Muslim immigration into the United States.”
Trump’s views on restricting migration from predominantly Muslim nations where terrorism has grown rampant have actually contributed to his popularity. The entire confrontation between Trump and Khan may have been engineered to reduce Trump’s appeal and divert the immigration argument into a side issue — whether or not Trump has shown sufficient respect for the parents of a fallen Iraq veteran who happened to be Muslim.

KHIZR KAHN, TRUMP, AND THE "REAL STORY"
SEE: http://www.newswithviews.com/Lloyd/rees178.htmrepublished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
By Attorney Rees Lloyd

Excuse me for not joining in the hypocritical frenzy of liberal media and supporters of Hillary Clinton over the so called "Khan Family" controversy in which Donald Trump is portrayed as an evil anti-Muslim ogre unwilling to prostrate himself to be lectured at by Hillary Clinton supporter and Muslim immigrant immigration lawyer Khizr Khan, whose son, Army Capt. Human Kahn heroically gave his life in service.
It happens I believe in the Biblical injunction that the sins of the father should not be visited on the sons. I believe also, however, that the heroism of the son should not be visited upon the father.
In this case, the son is U.S. Army Captain Humayun Kahn, who gave his life in service. He is a hero who indeed should be honored by all Americans for his sacrifice.
The father is Khizer Khan. He is a Pakastani Muslim immigrant and immigration lawyer who is neither hero nor a person otherwise to be honored.
Indeed, Khizr Khan has made his wealth in America as a Muslim immigration lawyer associated with a large law firm by importing other mostly wealthy Muslims in the notoriously corrupt "EB5" immigration visa program. That EP5 cash-cow for immigration lawyers is, of course, threatened by the possible election of Donald Trump.
After his appearance as a speaker at the Democrat Convention where he was used to attack Trump on behalf of Hillary Clinton of Benghazi infamy, Khizr Khan, emulating the corrupt Hillary Clinton who deleted her e-mails from public view, has deleted his law firm's website from the internet lest Americans find out how he has been making his money in the corrupt EB5 immigration program.
Oddly enough, despite the media frenzy over Trump's failure to genuflect before Khizr Kahn as he exploited his son's death for his own fame and glory and preservation of his EP5 Immigration wealth, all of this about Khizr Kahn was first exposed by Breitbart and by Robert Spencer's "Jihad Watch" (www.JihadWatch.com), not by the mainstream media.
Further, although Khizr Khan dramatically waved a pocket-copy of the U.S. Declaration of Independence and Constitution in his star turn as Democrat Party tool, he in fact is the author of tracts supporting the desirability of elevating Sharia Law over our Constitution, as also exposed by Robert Spencer in his Jihad Watch columns.
Therefore, allow me to to salute and honor the heroic service of the son, Army Captain Humayun Kahn, who paid the ultimate sacrifice in military service for America.
But excuse me from visiting the heroism of the son on the father, Khizr Khan, who has exploited his son's death as he has exploited America to enrich himself as Muslim immigration lawyer in one of the most corrupt aspects of immigration law, the EB5 program, all the while authoring articles advocating Sharia Law over Constitutional Law.
Further and finally, allow me to associate myself with the position and comments of Kris "Tonto" Paronto,. He is the American patriot and hero who survived the Muslim attack on the American consulate on 9-11-2012 in Benghazi despite the absolute failure of duty of then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
Hillary Clinton allowed the U.S. Ambassador and three other Americans to be killed by Muslim terrorists as she did nothing to save them. Among other things, Hillary did nothing to save the Americans — for over 13 hours — in part because of her fear Muslims would be "offended" if U.S. troops were sent in uniform to rescue the Ambassador and other Americans. The blood of Benghazi is, indeed, indelibly on Hillary Clinton's hands, disqualifying her from holding any office, let alone Commander-in-Chief, even Muslim immigration lawyer Keizer Khan supports her.
In contrast to Hillary Clinton is Benghazi hero "Tonto" Paronto, who co-authored "13 HOURS: The Inside Account Of What Really Happened IN BENGHAZI". "He is now heading the "Leading From The Front" effort of the American Legacy Center. He writes there regarding the Kahn Family Controversy worked up by the Hillary, the Democratts, and the media (www.AmericanLegacyCenter.org):
"This is getting ridiculous. The debate we're having about Donald Trump and the parents of slain U.S. Army Captain (and hero) Humayun Kahn is a complete waste of time.
"After essentially ignoring Pat Smith, whose son Sean was killed in Benghazi, the mainstream media is now fanning the flames of this latest controversy, and every candidate and elected official in America from dogcatcher up is being asked to take a side.
"But here's the real story that every single American should be focused on -- in its online magazine this week, ISIS showed a picture of Captain Khan's tombstone in Arlington National Cemetery with the caption: "Beware of dying as an apostate." The article then urged American and other Western Muslims to either migrate to ISIS-controlled lands or carry out lone wolf attacks "where it hurts them most."
"I know this enemy, and while we're focused on politics, they're butchering 84-year-old priests at the altar."
