EXPOSING ISLAM, THE QURAN AND MUSLIMS

(This article was prepared only one week before the horrific and dastardly destruction of the Twin Towers of N.Y. My wife and I were celebrating our 44TH anniversary in N.Y. and were at the Twin Towers last Tuesday.)

To All Patriotic Americans:

Blow the trumpet in America! Sound the alarm!

We are being invaded in America and do not seem to realize it. What has been taking place in Iraq, Iran, Indonesia and Afghanistan should be a clear signal of warning to America. But we are too busy following "Who wants to be a millionaire", who is the new golf hero, boxing champion, football or baseball front-runner for national championship or who won the lottery lately!

Our postal service has just issued a stamp to commemorate Islam and recognize Muslims. Since when did Saudi Arabia, the heart of Islam, even recognize the presence of 900,000 Christian expatriates on their soil? Saudis do not allow a church building to be constructed on their one million square mile desert kingdom. You cannot get a passport unless you are a Muslim! We have allowed the Muslims to establish 1500 mosques and centers in America, mostly with petrol dollars. Yet, not a single church building is allowed in Saudi Arabia, a country where our own military offered their very life-blood to defend Saudis against another Muslim tyrant by the name of Saddam Hussain.

Incidentally, have you wondered about the spectacle of Iran and Iraq declaring Jihad on each other? Thereafter Saudi Arabia and Iraq did the same. These people called us "The Great Satan" during the Gulf War. I chuckle at the fantastic result of the war when Allah was no match for "The Great Satan." Will Muslims find a bigger Allah to do battle for them or simply discover there is no such deity?

Mr. Farakhan was born in Guyana, South America, immigrated to the United States and claimed to be the leader of an American Islamic Group known as the Black Muslims. Recently while television in Nashville, TN, I ran across a program in which he was the guest speaker in some church. To my unbelieving eyes and ears he announced, "You ask me about Mohammed. The name means praised one. Jesus is the praised one. So Mohammed is Jesus and Jesus is Mohammed. How ignorant can one be to believe such rubbish?

How many of you even remember that Afghanistan's Muslim government one Sunday morning sent bulldozers and completely destroyed the only church building in Kabul, the capital, in 1980? (That was before the Soviet invasion and its aftermath.) Afghanistan's militant regime has once again demonstrated an imbecilic attitude towards culture, archeology and history by showing in worldwide media how they dynamited the historic monuments of Buddha. Not many days ago the religious police, who, like their counterparts in Saudi Arabia are above the law, arrested 24 Western and national personnel. The accusation was "they were caught red-handed with Bibles and videos of the movie "Jesus of Nazareth". In short, freedom of religion is practiced and available only to Muslims. Have you ever wondered why democracy and Islam do not co-exist?

There are over a billion Muslims in the world. Yet out of the 39 majority Muslim countries and 30 large minority Muslim countries, only Turkey has any semblance of democracy! As if that is not obvious, lately the clamor to declare Islamic law as the law of the land, in Nigeria, Indonesia, Somalia, Iran, Pakistan, etc., demonstrates something that no one wants to talk about. On the one hand, many of the poorer countries of Africa are wanting the Islamic law because it guarantees them petrol dollar contributions from the Islamic oil producing countries. On the other hand, there is an astonishing amount of terror which is gripping the Muslim world due to two things.

First, they are losing ground because of the invasion of the "Truth Revolution". Neither the Quran nor Islam can stand the acidic test and heat of higher criticism of archeology, philosophy, language, logic or history which has been focused on the Bible for so long and is now focused on the Quran. The fallacy that the so-called "prophet of Islam" was illiterate, therefore he could not have written the Quran (but God himself did) is now substantiated by the incredible find of the Yemenite documents in 1979 of the Quran.
Please consult Atlantic Monthly issue of January 1999 under the title "What is the Quran".

Second, whereas the Dead Sea scrolls substantiate Biblical accuracy, the 34,000 photographs of the discovered documents of the Quran dating from the 8th to the 14th century expose the fact that the Quran has been polluted by changes in its text over the centuries. Subsequently, we can say, very forcefully, that the Quran developed over the years and in no way can it be accepted as the final revelation of God to humanity. In fact, the contents of the Quran do not reveal any new information, inspiration, or instructions, which had not already been known to the Jews and Christians, and even some heathen.

Many of my readers still shudder when they think of Lebanon and the tragedy of 14 years of civil war. Are you cognizant of the fact that at the conclusion of the First World War the triumphant governments of the world decided to help the Arab Christians of the Middle East? Therefore, in the ocean of the Muslim countries, which occupy the entire Middle East, an island was established for the Christian Arabs who had no recognized geographical identity. However, to assuage the Muslim potentates and governments who assisted in winning the war against the Axis and the Turkish Empire, the constitution for Lebanon included that the President of this new democracy would always be a Christian, but the Prime Minister a Muslim.

Nevertheless, as a result of the six-day war between Israel and its neighbors in which Israel was victorious, of l967, thousands of Palestinians penetrated into Lebanon, legally and illegally. The majority were Muslims. Within two decades they were able to offset the numerical balance between Muslim and Christian, thus creating a larger Muslim population than the Christian. Although they were refugees, it was unbelievable that they demanded a voice in the government. According to the constitution of Lebanon, that was not feasible. Consequently, the onslaught of a 14-year protracted civil war caused the killing of 140,000 people, the displacement of a million people, the injury of over half a million people and the destruction of Lebanon's infrastructure. When former President Reagan sent some marines to be peacekeepers, the same ungodly, violent people had a suicide truck-bomber explode his truck, himself, and 280 of our marines as they lay sleeping early one morning.

Lest we forget now about our peaceful mission to striking Somalis, the treatment we received once again demonstrated to the world the raw evil of militant Islam. Eventually, the whole tragedy ended up with the world opinion backing the Lebanese Christian administration. The eviction of the PLO, both leadership and followers took place because they were the ones who spearheaded the entire affair, slaughter, mayhem and destruction. Of course, Syria's military forces were more eager than the Israeli forces to occupy the entire country, subjugate its people, and control the economy of what was the banking center of the Middle East. It will take 50 years for Lebanon to recover its previous glory and overcome the ravishes of wanton practices of mayhem, slaughter and meaningless destruction. Is that what they're trying to do to Israel right now? It is the only Jewish State in the world. Arabs control 99.9% of the Middle East, 5 million square miles. Why can't they share some of their Middle Eastern hospitality by letting their cousins and half brothers have a mere 1/10 of their square miles? Is there some sinister demonic spirit roaming in the Arab World, which keeps them from demonstrating mercy and reconciliation and love?

What then do you believe about modern Saudi Arabia's administration? They consistently jail Christian expatriates, torture some, execute others and force the expulsion of the white-skinned, but execute the brown and black skinned workers.

For the past 11 years the Sudanese militant Islamic administration has terrorized, marginalized, ostracized and slaughtered its own citizens in the southern regions. We have been hearing about that lately because of the outcry of organizations which are dedicated to exposing religious, economic, political and cultural persecution. We have documents which demonstrate that over 2 million people have been killed so far because they are not Muslims but are Christians and animists. The ancient miserable practice of slavery is going on right now in that land, which is the largest in Africa, by an administration that has vowed to make Sudan the most Islamic country in the world. The reason why we have been hearing about them lately is also due to the discovery of oil under the sandy valleys and hills.

Have you seen the movie "Not Without My Daughter" with Sally Fields, "The Siege" with Densel Washington or the French movie, "The Death of a Princess"? Get the documentary of Mr. Steven Emerson's "Jihad in America" and let your eyes be opened wide. Remember that millions saw it on PBS 5 years ago. Visit the so-called Salaam (Peace) Mosque where blind cleric, Abd El Rahman (who falsified his documents and acquired an entry visa into America illegally) instigated his followers to bomb our World Trade Center. Tragically, they succeeded today in destroying both Towers which inflicted on us more terror than Pearl Harbor.

Mrs. Hillary Clinton was the first occupant of our White House to celebrate the Feast of Ramadan with 64 Muslim leaders in America. A number of journalists discovered that she had done that more than once. Guess who paid for that feast? Your and my tax dollars. Have you wondered how Muslims have succeeded in ingratiating themselves to the Clintons? Money and more money. Journalists have dared to expose the China connection but none have so far demonstrated courage or honesty to expose the Muslim connection. Besides, Chelsea, their one and only daughter, dated the son of Saudi Arabia's ambassador to Washington, which entailed expensive gifts and extraordinary favors. Can you recall how the news media quoted Mrs. Clinton as saying that Chelsea had given her so much valuable insight on Islam as they were travelling throughout some African countries 3 years ago? How many of you realize that our chaplains have allowed Muslim clerics to open the Senate as well as the Congress in prayer? Muslims express an image of dedicated citizenry and peaceful coexistence while they are a minority. However, as soon as the number grows, look out for catastrophe. There will be neither democracy, human rights, nor religious freedom and forget about your political rights or individual freedoms.

The Allah of the Quran is not the God of the Bible. Out of the so-called 99 excellent names for Allah, none is a "Heavenly Father", neither "God is love", nor "God is spirit." But in the Quran, Allah is called "the proud", the "destroyer" and the "vengeful". Few Arabic-speaking Muslims comprehend at all the famous words "Allahu Akbar" which they loudly declare when delighted or depressed. They are indoctrinated to believe it means "god is greater."

Consequently, we ask the question, greater than what, or whom? Because Islam grew in the midst of pagan Mecca with 362 idols and goddesses, Mohammed was claiming that his god is GREATER than all the others. Yet, few know that the word "Akbar" did not only mean greater, but was also the name of the moon god. Therefore, one is not astonished at all to observe that the Muslims' house of worship is surmounted by what? The Christian's symbol of their faith is the cross-a reminder of God's great love for humans. The star surmounts Jewish Synagogues because they were commissioned by Yahweh God to be a light to the nations. Islam even follows an archaic lunar calendar, not the more accurate solar one. Why? Because they are trying to please their god! All Mohammad did was to embellish "Akbar" with Biblical characteristics of God to attract his people to his new religion. Once one researches Islam's development, ceremonial oblations, festivals, traditions and beliefs, he will be quite convinced that Islam is the Arabs interpretation of Judaism!

In our crowded prison system, Muslims are growing faster than any religious group. Why? Islam is a violent religion. Violence attracts violence, therefore criminals find an affinity in becoming Muslims. Upon becoming a Muslim, inmates are given new names. When they are released there will be no record to track down their previous crimes. Additionally, prisoners are told that Mohammed was a black man and an African. Double lies! Arabs are descendents of Shem, not
Ham. Even the Hadith tells, in several stories, how others knew he was a white man. Furthermore, Arabia is in Asia, not Africa.

There is not a single, solitary Muslim in the entire world who can claim that he knows whether his sins are forgiven or not. Muslims have neither a sacrifice for sin nor assurance of salvation from sin. Only a born-again Christian can know. As far as their doctrine is concerned, only Allah knows your eternal destination!

What about the matter of beating your wife, as a divine right sanctioned by Allah! Then, adding three more wives and as many concubines as you can afford? Have you heard that Kuwait's Prince has 29 wives? Women do not count in court but one-half of a witness. Therefore, if a man is testifying we have to have two women to counter his testimony. The original and first king of Saudi Arabia, King Abdul Aziz was crowned by the British at the end of World War I. The Allies had promised him and other Arab leaders that if they take their side in the warfare, each of them would be recognized as a potentate of a geographical location of his choice. Surprising enough, the first royal act of the king was a marriage ceremony with 350 women. His offspring today comprise the royal family in access of 24,000, who alone enjoy freedom and liberty. No one else in the entire country has that freedom.

Read the incredible new book that exposes all of these facts and more. Amazon.com lists it as The True Furqan, meaning the Quran is the false one. Judge for yourself. Another is Islam Revealed, an eye opener, on the subject. A brand new video entitled, "Islam: A Threat or a Challenge" is a must see, produced by our organization.

When any intelligent individual contrasts the Bible to the Quran he is truly overwhelmed by the Biblical plagiarism. How can the one true and living God send us two revelations which contradict each other? God is not a God of confusion, but of order. Is it at all possible that He sent us His greatest and most up-to-date revelation called the Quran in the most difficult language out of 12,000 rather than the easiest language? Why in the world of logic would God, if He is the same God, order the killing of His human beings because they did not practice worshiping him exactly like another group. Some of you may inquire, what about Mormonism? Isn't it similar to Islam? In my opinion, Mormonism is actually Islam in America, but that is another story.

Have you heard the rumor that, "If the government of Iran would allow the same freedom of religion as in the West, 50% or more of their people would turn to Christ overnight." Furthermore, in the past two years over 500 Muslims in Israel have trusted Christ and followed through with baptism. Entire villages in Africa and the Middle East are discovering that Islam's human rights record disqualifies it from support as a viable twenty-first century religion. Fear from reprisals keeps most Muslims from coming to Christ. Islam is the only religion which instructs the followers by divine right to kill their family members, friends and relatives, if the new convert does not recant in sixty days. So one must wonder why "Allah" is always angry and hungry for blood like the ancient pagan dieties. Why do his militant followers demonstrate brutal violence throughout the world. Abu Sayyaf's group (in the Philippines), Hamas (of Palestine and Israel ), Usamah bin Laden (the Saudi millionaire terrorist), and Hizb Allah (of Lebanon) are dedicated to the destruction of anyone or any country which disagrees with their agenda. Fanatic, fundamental Islam, if not checked soon, will precipitate the Third World War.

We come to the conclusion with what is perhaps the most important issue in this article, which is the conflict between the Arabs and the Jews. First of all, the 52 year conflict with modern Israel began in the tent of Abraham and Sarah. Hagar's introduction to a monogamous marriage, by Sarah's obedience to cultural practices at her former home in Chaldea, initiated the conflict. Marriage vows included a promise by the wife that she would provide her husband with another woman if she could not deliver any children for him. Although God fulfilled his promise in providing Abraham and Sarah with Isaac, the competition had already begun between Ishmael and Isaac. Therefore, the 4000 year old family feud which is fueled by a demonic spirit of hate, revenge, bitterness and bloody warfares is a family feud.

Second, if the Palestinian Arabs and the Palestinian Jews had been left alone in 1948 to take care of themselves, the entire exercise in futility, bloodshed, heartache and enormous waste of billions of dollars of armament would have been avoided.

Third, few people ever blame Jordan for annexing the Palestinian area which the United Nations assigned to the Palestinian Arabs. Imagine how unjust it was for Jordan to annex the area, call it the West Bank, claim it for its own, then because of world opinion and the Palestinian uprising, give it up in 1966.

Fourth, the Bible emphatically declares again and again that that piece of land, call it Palestine, Israel, Land of Canaan, or whatever, was given by God to Abraham and his descendants. If we can convince the Israeli Jews and the Palestinian Arabs of this fact, which is both have the right to the land and should coexist, maybe we can stop the bloodletting and exchange understanding for hate. If indeed the Arab Muslims (there are 16 million Arab Christians who have no quarrel with Israel) decide on a Holy War with Israel, the consequences are catastrophic and could become an atomic war because Israel has 2 reactors and approximately 400 atomic weapons ready to defend itself. Let us pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the fall of fanatic Islam which has brought to humanity more curses than blessings throughout its 1400 year history. And today, because of the tragedies in New York and Washington, we must pray earnestly that the Lord will propel the entire world into rejecting Islam as a viable religion for the 21st century and turn to the Prince of Peace, rather than the prince of darkness who devised the Quran and enslaved Muslims.
