Open the Koran Day

By Brigitte Gabriel, President, ACT! for America

It will be an historic event. An unprecedented event.

Last fall, in response to the pastor who wanted to have a “Burn the Koran Day” event, I said during an appearance on the Hannity radio program that, rather than burning books, let’s have an “Open the Koran Day” event and educate Americans about what exactly is in the Koran.

So I’m excited to announce ACT! for America’s 2011 “Open the Koran Day” national event.

Here’s our plan. During the weekend of September 23 – 25, ACT! for America chapter leaders and members will host “Open the Koran” informational tables all across America. These tables will be set up in front of post offices, public libraries, in churches and synagogues—wherever we can set them up where people will be walking by!

Our goal is to have at least 750 venues for these informational tables, from Alaska to Florida and Maine to California. At these tables we will provide 2,500 full-color, glossy handouts with verses from the Koran as well as passages from the hadith (sayings and traditions of Mohammed) that address topics including:

Jihad The treatment of women Dealing with “infidels” Muslim “apostasy” Blasphemy against Islam Slavery in Islam The treatment of gays and lesbians

We will promote this through our emails, website, TV program, and radio and TV interviews, reaching potentially millions of people. Nothing like this has ever been done before in America!

This letter to you today marks the kickoff of our 30 day campaign to raise the money needed to pull off an unprecedented effort like this.

THIS IS AN ENORMOUS ORGANIZATIONAL AND LOGISTICAL UNDERTAKING—BUT THE BENEFITS WILL BE WORTH IT !!

We estimate the costs for designing, printing and shipping materials and ACT! for America 3’ x 6’ banners will amount to only $125 per information table. That works out to nearly $94,000 for 750 tables.

Tens of thousands will get our handouts at the tables. Millions more will hear about the event or print off the handouts posted online. That’s a lot of “bang for the buck!”

If we’re going to pull off this historic, unprecedented event, we’re going to need the help of ACT! for America members like you.

You can help us make this historic event a reality by either making a monthly Patriot Partner contribution or making a single gift Contributing Member contribution.

If you prefer to make a single gift Contributing Member contribution with a check, you can print out this reply form and mail it in with your contribution.

When you make either a Patriot Partner monthly contribution or a single gift Contributing Member contribution, we’ll send you a special gift as our thank you, such as an autographed copy of my book They Must Be Stopped.

We need 300 Patriot Partners giving an average of $20 per month and 1,000 Contributing Members each making a single gift averaging $50 to achieve our goal. What can you do today?

Americans need to understand the supremacist political ideology embedded within the holy books of Islam that is the foundation for the rise of radical Islam we are witnessing today.

With your financial help we’ll be able to help many more Americans come to understand…

why “radicalization” of Muslims is increasing in America; why dozens of Muslim countries are pushing for international criminalization of free speech that criticizes Islam; why Islamic jihad is on the rise worldwide; and why demands for sharia law are dramatically increasing in countries across Europe and in the Muslim world.

But we can’t make this unprecedented, historic event a reality without your help.

So please respond today. Log on here to make your monthly Patriot Partner gift or Contributing Member gift.

Of if you prefer, print out this reply form and mail in the most generous gift you can.

Together we will make a GIANT leap forward in helping America understand what the Koran and Hadith teach.

Over the next 30 days we’ll be sending out email updates to keep you abreast of our progress. In the meantime, I thank you for taking action TODAY!

Always devoted,


Brigitte Gabriel

John Quincy Adams, President and Congressman

American Minute with Bill Federer

On FEBRUARY 21, 1848, John Quincy Adams suffered a stroke at his desk in the House chamber, shortly after making an impassioned speech against the Democrat plan of extending slavery to the Western territories won in the Mexican-American War.

He died 2 days later without regaining consciousness.

A bronze marker on the floor indicates where Adams's desk once stood, known at the "whispering spot" in Statuary Hall.

John Quincy Adams was the only President to serve as a Congressman after having been President.

Nicknamed Old Man Eloquent for speaking out against slavery, he offered a plan for its elimination.

In 1841, John Qunicy Adams defended before the Supreme Court 53 Africans who had mutinied aboard the slave ship Amistad, gaining them their freedom.

As African slaves were purchased at Muslim slave markets, John Quincy Adams wrote in his "Essay on Turks" (1829): "The natural hatred of the Mussulmen towards the infidels is in just accordance with the precepts of the Koran...
The fundamental doctrine of the Christian religion is the extirpation of hatred from the human heart. It forbids the exercise of it, even towards enemies..."

John Quincy Adams continued: "In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab...spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth...
He declared undistinguishing and exterminating war as a part of his religion...
The essence of his doctrine was violence and lust, to exalt the brutal over the spiritual part of human nature."

Saying No! to a Ground Zero Mosque

By Alan Caruba

In the August 3rd edition of The Wall Street Journal, in the Greater New York section, the lead article was “9/11 Memorial Pledged as Part of Mosque Plan.”

There already is a 9/11 memorial. It is called Ground Zero and will be incorporated into whatever structure that eventually gets built on the site.

If one continued to read the story, however, you had to jump to page A21 where side-by-side with the mosque story was one titled, “Verdict in JFK Bomb Plot”, subtitled “Jury Finds Two Guilty in Conspiracy Charges for Plan to Ignite Fuel Tanks.”

The two men found guilty were Abdul Kadir and Russell Defreitas. A third defendant, Kareem Ibrahim, was ill and didn’t go to trial with them and a fourth, Abdel Nur, took a plea deal and faces up to 15 years in prison. At no time in the body of the article is there any mention that these men are Muslims though that fact was critical to their plot.

It was noted that “the men tried to get help from al Qaeda operative Adnan Shukrijumah who was recently indicted in federal court in a plot to attack the New York City subway system with suicide bombers.”

How many Muslim plots to kill thousands of New Yorkers does it take before the plotters are identified as Muslims?

The reason why there should be no mosque built where the debris and dust of the Twin Towers showered down on the very spot is obvious to any American. It would be an obscenity.

It is obscene to wish to build a mosque within sight of where 2,700 people lost their lives in an act of Islamic terrorism, an act of war, a jihad.

How this simple fact escapes the notice of Mayor Mike Bloomberg defies understanding, but this same Mayor originally thought the failed Times Square bomb could have been placed by “somebody with a political agenda who doesn't like the health care bill or something. It could be anything.”

No, it could not be “anything”! Of the many plots hatched since 9/11, it is likely that 99.9% have been by Muslims, whether native born or immigrants.

This is not about tolerance. In New York, every Friday in several locations through the city where there are mosques that cannot accommodate all who wish to enter for prayers, the overflow fills the surrounding streets between 2 PM and 4 PM. They block traffic in ways no other group of religionists would ever be permitted. It is surreal.

There is something especially abhorrent about Mayor Bloomberg’s dazzling ignorance because as a Jew he seems to have not absorbed the lessons of history and, in particular, the Holocaust that killed six million Jews and five million Christians; nuns and priests, Lutherans, gypsies, and others swept up by the Nazi death machine.

Hannah Arendt attended the 1961 trial of Adolf Eichmann, the Nazi charged with rounding up and killing Europe’s Jews. Her book, “Eichmann and the Holocaust”, was published in 1963 and enshrined the phrase, “the banality of evil” in our modern lexicon.

For Arendt, Eichmann was a “new type of criminal, who commits his crimes under circumstances that make it well-nigh impossible for him to know or feel that he is doing wrong.” Not so new because the crimes of Islam against all who are not Islamic (and some who are thanks to the Shiite-Sunni schism) are very old and fill the headlines of today’s newspapers.

The Muslims who flew commercial airliners into the Twin Towers and the Pentagon did not think they were doing wrong. They were doing what the Koran and almost every imam with the breath to preach told them to do; they were killing infidels.

This is why a mosque within steps of Ground Zero is so inherently wrong. It says that the intended victims of Islamic domination are simply too blind to envision their fate, too fearful to confront evil, to ready to get on the next train to Auschwitz.
