ASSIMILATION …?

Massachusetts Politicians Ennoble Boston’s IslamistsHere’s The Story …

SOURCE: https://islamism.news/2022/06/13/massachusetts-politicians-ennoble-bostons-islamists/?goal=0_1ce70fade8-b6fde21c73-34186521

ISI/DI: More and more Muslims are running for political office all across the United States. At the same time, they can also be found in the ranks of our military, places of business, and one other place, that of political staff appointments, like Yusufi Val.

These are the people behind the politicians. They hold tremendous power as they are the people who provide counsel and insight, at times assuming the position of handler for their elected official. It is vitally important that the people who hold these positions understand our Constitution, legal system and laws, and operate with the same set of values and principles … What can be said for Yusufi? We know that he is a Muslim and Muslims believe Muhammad was the messenger of Allah, the god of Islam, and Shari’a is the law that governs Islam.

The questions that must be on all our minds: (1) How closely will this staff — or other Muslims in public office — tend to push towards a Shari’a standard? (2) Have we stepped out on to that slippery slope that is nearly impossible to step back from?

What about “assimilation?” The Qur’an speaks against it as does Shari’a. The reason is that it opens the door to being apostate — or secularized — which draws a sentence of death. It’s also because of association with non-Muslims. If a Muslim adheres to what the Qur’an says verbatim — this is what leads to radicalization — and it can be a hard to break.

But, what if a Muslim assimilates? What then? If that happens, they would be in violation of their religion. This, however, is of his concern, not yours. You may say, ”Great, all is well and good.” Not exactly. He still may push for Shari’a, otherwise, why is he a Muslim? He’s in violation assimilating, and he’s denied Islamic Law. Both could draw the death penalty. What else is there? A Muslim has to think long and hard before doing this. The consequences are dire, real, and deadly.

Two political veterans face off in fight for Nigeria’s presidencyHere’s The Story …

ISI/DI: Elections are in the forecast for Nigeria. Having had a Christian as a recent president did little to move the country away from Islam. And, now … both of the above are Muslims. What will that mean for Nigeria?

Most likely … there will be the usual corruption that has starved so many African countries. But the real elephant in the room is Boko Haram with its allegiance to ISIS, and other groups like them. They have raped, murdered, and pillaged their way across central Africa, mostly targeting Christians and churches. The second elephant is Islam itself. Sad days will continue to be in store for Nigeria, I’m afraid.

ISI/DI: Really? Iran’s answer to the IAEA (the international organization that oversees nuclear arms) is to turn off the cameras?

ISI/DI: General Jack Keane, chairman for the Institute of the Study of War (ISW) says Iran could have the materials for a bomb in a matter of weeks. However, having those materials and mounting them to a delivery system could take a year or more. He feels president Biden along with NATO and other countries, need to work together and apply the necessary sanctions to deter Iran.

ISI/DI: Things are starting to go exponential now with the Abraham Accords. It’s not just about placement of new embassies and recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s rightful capitol, but so much more — joint programs and initiatives, loans and investments, partnerships and sole proprietors, education and business, science and technology.

There will be problems to overcome, battles to fight, but the Middle East could be the next Silicon Valley — or anything it’s willing to work for. Just follow the TIPS below.

TURKEY

Bizarro World: Mega-Terrorist TurkeyHere’s The Story …

SOURCE: https://robertspencer.org/2022/06/bizarro-world-mega-terrorist-turkey

ISI/DI: Erdogan is riding a wave — which may be headed out to sea. There are elections coming up in 2023 with at least two other contenders in the bidding, so far. There are also Erdi’s dreams of building a second Ottoman Empire, which are lofty at best.

As already mentioned in previous issues, Erdogan has made Turkey a terrorists’ paradise — ISIS, Hamas, Hezbollah, Al-Qaeda — all have received Turkish passports and Turkish citizenship. His specific plans have not been made public yet, but, he obviously sees them as some sort of second Ottoman army or personal protection detail … or possibly enforcers of martial law. Question is, will that be enough to buy off all these different groups? There are several commonalities, but also some differences. They are all Muslim — some Sunni, some Shi’a; they are also terrorists, which should make them an unknown commodity for Erdogan. What ever it is, we should know within the next six-to-eight months as time for the election begins to draw down.

ISI/DI: More things that occupy Erdi’s mind — the ongoing war in Syria and land-claims by the Kurdish population — that will draw his attention away from what the things he really wants to concentrate on.
