Is CAIR increasing their presence in Oklahoma?

A recent notice put out by CAIR Oklahoma which is posted on their website indicates they have four positions opened.  Up until now, they had two positions in the state; the director and the operations coordinator.  It now appears a new communication manager and a new civil rights manager position have been added.  All four positions are open for new job candidates.  Interesting.

Does this mean Muneer Awad, their director here and the man who sued Oklahoma over its anti-foreign law admendment, is leaving CAIR Oklahoma?

University of Central Arkansas teacher forced to apologize for insulting Islam!

According to an article published today in Emirates24/7, Cici Tubb-Warbington, a teacher at the University of Central Arkansas was forced to apologize for insulting Islam when several Saudi students took offense to something she said or did involving a picture.

From Anti-Islamic US teacher forced to apologise:

A female university teacher in the United States had to apologise to her Saudi students for offending Islam after they protested her behaviour to the management, Saudi newspapers reported on Tuesday.

The students went straight to the teacher’s direct manager and complained that she had placed anti-Islamic pictures with abusive remarks in their books. They threatened that in case no action is taken, they would go straight to the chairman of the University of Central Arkansas in the southern state of America.

“We went into the office of the manager of the institute where we study and submitted a protest…we told her that if she does not take action against the teacher, we will go to the head of the university,” Saudi student Ahmed bin Daheem Al Hajour said, quoted by the Saudi Ajel newspaper.

...“I just want to apologize to you if you saw something here the other day that was offensive to Islam…I liked the picture because I liked the caption-- I didn’t even look at the picture I was liking…it was a stupid mistake and I didn’t even realise until a student complained to Amy (manager) and she talked to me,” the teacher said in her message.

“I want you to know I care deeply about my Saudi students…last term for example, I rearranged my class schedule so that the men could attend mosque and not have to miss class…..I have always tried to be sensible and respectful, so I feel terrible that I made such a stupid and thoughtless mistake… I would never intentionally do something to be offensive.”

Today she wrote on her FB page something that may or may not be related to the incident:

It wasn't clear what the offensive picture was or what the "abusive remarks" the Saudi students claim she made and how this insulted Islam or how the story ended in the Saudi papers and Emirates 24/7.   It's quite concerning how this college teacher might have been  forced to apologize for exercizing something that may have been well-within her free speech rights.  Not having all the facts makes it hard to make sense of this but it reminds me of the subjugation Islamic supremacists seem determined to impose on everyone.

1999 Saudi Embassy Announcement of Money Given to CAIR!

I finally found, actually stumbled across, an archive of the Saudi Embassy announcement that $250,000 was given to CAIR to buy land for their national headquarters!

Open Letter to Oklahoma Conference of Churches who sponsored a CAIR fund-raiser

note:  a similar letter was emailed to Dr. Tabbernee  earlier this week.  He did not give me the courtesy of a reply.

April 11, 2012

Rev. Dr. William Tabbernee

Executive Director

Oklahoma Conference of Churches

301 Northwest 36th Street
Oklahoma City, OK 73118

Dear Rev.Tabbernee:

 I read in a CAIR Oklahoma announcement your church coalition was one of the sponsors for their banquet on March 31st held at the Oklahoma City Marriott. 

 

Oklahoma Conference of Churches table at CAIR Oklahoma fundraising banquet.  Photo source: CAIR Oklahoma facebook page.

I want to express my strong concern the Oklahoma Conference of Churches used money to help finance/support a fund-raising eventfor a chapter of an organization started by leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood's Islamic Association of Palestine (IAP).  One of those former IAP leaders, Nihad Awad, is their National Executive Director who has been in this position from its inception.  He has been to Oklahoma in support of the Oklahoma chapter.

CAIR raised around $120,000 which was short of their goal. It looked like the people were encouraged to send their pledge to CAIR National based on this photo.  Perhaps, I'm wrong although the number is a DC exchange where CAIR National offices is located. Coincidence?  Maybe. CAIR OK praised the local Imam: "We also want to designate a special appreciation to our event's inspirational speaker, Imam Imad Enchassi, for helping us raise funds." Imam Enchassi prayed last year on his Facebook wall his desire the Middle East would unite as it was before WW1 with no borders under Divine guidance.  This means he's hoping for a new Islamic supremacist caliphate to emerge in the region.  Oh, the ramifications for the world should this happen. Yet, this is the goal of Islamists.  Is Imam Enchassi's Islamist wish something you support?  Would he discuss his hopes openly at an interfaith meeting if this was brought to his attention, Dr. Tabbernee?

 

Imam Enchassi also made it clear what the Islamic view of other religions are which was highlighted with a specific Quranic verse to help explain the consequences of believing in a false religion which is in writing on the Islamic Society of Greater Oklahoma City website:

"If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah-(God)) never will It be accepted of Him" (The Qur'an 3:85)

I'm sure he's not quite that candid at local interfaith gatherings.  I find these statements worrisome because they are about Islamic supremacy which is the cornerstone of Islamism.  The tweet below by CAIR's Muneer Awad about the FBI is appalling.

These are but a few of the worrisome statements I've read over the last few years as I've studied Islamism.  The good news is there are a growing number of American Islamic groups that are speaking out against Islamic supremacy (Islamism).  Twenty of them have formed a coalition called the American Islamic Leadership Coalition.  CAIR and like-minded groups are currently on a mission to try derail the recent appointment of one of its key leaders, Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, to the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom.  Some CAIR directors have called him an Uncle Tom, blamed him for creating a climate of MURDER in the death of an Iraqi women in California, even though evidence appears to be leading investigators to look into family problems.

My fear is your organization may not pay attention to the words and actions of CAIR and its supporters over time that are made outside of interfaith gatherings.  Perhaps, I'm wrong but this is my impression.

There are many, many other ways to show support for the fine Oklahoma Muslim community we have outside of CAIR, who wants to speak for ALL Muslims and gets really bent if other Muslim leaders dare.  Considering the support provided by the Oklahoma Conference of Churches a fundraiser for CAIR, I will find a church charity or cause that aren't associated with your organization which I will help support and promote. I also plan to inform other Oklahomans to the best of my ability.

Sincerely,  

Brandi L. Eave

a concerned Oklahoman

CAIR Oklahoma Exposed

CAIR Oklahoma pressures church to drop speaker they don't like!

A couple weeks ago CAIR Oklahoma, led by Muneer Awad, issued a press release titled CAIR Asks Oklahoma Church to Drop Anti-Islam Agenda. Fairiew Baptist of Edmond, Oklahoma was the target: 

The keynote speaker of tonight's event at Fairview Baptist Church in Edmond, Okla., is Avi Lipkin, an infamous Islamophobe who alleges among other things that Muslims worship the devil and that all Muslims want to kill Christians and Jews.

...This kind of bigotry and hysteria only serves to fuel the growing chorus of anti-Muslim sentiment that is unfortunately spreading in the Heartland," said CAIR-OK Executive Director Muneer Awad. "We respectfully request that the church drop this speaker and other hate-mongers, and offer it's congregants a sincere opportunity for dialogue and information about Islam and Muslims.

Awad said Fairview Baptist Church is known for hosting anti-Muslim speakers such as William Boykin, who recently withdrew from a speaking event at West Point Military Academy after concerns over his remarks that Islam does not deserve religious protections under the First Amendment, and Bridgette Gabriel, who paid tens of thousands of dollars to conduct robocalls in Oklahoma in 2010 to allege Muslim men rape their wives."

CAIR Minnesota: Best Buy is the Platinum Sponsor for 2012 Banquet!

As you can read, a chapter of the highly controversial Islamist group CAIR posted an announcement that Best Buy was a key sponsor of their 2012 banquet on January 23rd.  But, what makes this so much worse was CAIR Minnesota's action last November, when they blasted two Muslims who spoke out about terror-recruiting that was going on in Minnesota!  Read CAIR Claims 2 Metro Somali Leaders are Anti-Muslim.

10th Circuit Court upholds injunction against Oklahoma sharia law ban!

The 10th Circuit Court in Denver, Colorado today upheld an injunction against the implementation of Oklahoma SQ 755, a constitutional amendment that instructed judges not to consider foreign laws in making their decisions, it included sharia law, I believe, in that it is the ruling order used in a number of Islamic countries and is the basis for their laws.  The amendment passed overwhelmingly in the fall of 2010.  The amendment reads, in part:

“The courts shall not look to the legal precepts of other nations or cultures. Specifically, the courts shall not consider international law or Sharia law.”

Muneer Awad's holiday card to legislators drips of hypocrisy!

The 2011 holiday card sent out by Muneer Awad, the director of CAIR's chapter in Oklahoma, to state legislators, officials and others thanked them for their continued support to make Oklahoma a great "Home for the Holidays."

Wait a minute... What continued support? 

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Happy Holidays everyone! 

I want to wish all my Christian friends and readers a very Merry Christmas!  Your support means so much to me.   2012 will be an important year for Christians and everyone, really.  We need to become more knowledgeable - more vocal - so we can stand up for what's right together.

God Bless

 

DOJ seeks assets of Tulsa Ace Auto Mart in massive Hezbollah terror-financing operation!

A federal complaint filed in court in New York City on December 15, 2011 seeks the assets of a number of car dealers across the U.S. in order to shut down a massive money laundering scheme the DOJ claims helped fund Hezbollah, a designated terrorist organization.

Law enforcement agents in Tulsa were at Ace Auto Mart, one of the car dealers named in the complaint, located on 11th St.in Tulsa, Oklahoma on Friday.  Ace Auto was allegedly involved in wire transfers of over $20 million dollars!

Progressives join activist Muslims to belittle Lowes and anyone who disagrees!

Lowes hates Muslims?  That's one of the hastags used on twitter by Islamists and their partners on the left recently. Perhaps, though, if you dig a little deeper all this rhertoric is cover for something else; Christians must be stopped from pursuing a cause.  Too ridiculous?

Tulsa progressives boot "Christmas" from title of decades old parade!

Somewhere along the line mostly conservative Tulsa became hostage to some progressives. For one thing, the local paper's editorial writers are stance liberals which is why I don't subscribe to it. In early 2009,  they laid off 28 employees and last year they put in a pay-wall similar to what the liberal New York Times has done which makes their online news a closed-source. I would venture to guess their polarizing ideological views are so contrary to the majority of Tulsans might have, in some small way. contributed. Tulsa is also home to billionaire Obama bundle George Kaiser who is embroiled in the Solyndra controversy.

Today I was stunned to learn Butterball slaughters ALL their turkeys according to Islamic religious law (halal).  All of them. 

CAIR New York and other Muslim groups to march against New York police Friday!

I find a protest, along with a public Muslim prayer scheduled for tomorrow in New York City, a disturbing sign of Islamism.  Activist Muslims who argue that proactive efforts by law enforcement to prevent another terrorist attack is repression seriously ought to have their heads examined. 

CAIR OK: Sharia has historically been allowed & considered in American courts

CAIR Oklahoma claims in their "Understanding Sharia" brochure that it, "sharia," has historically been allowed in American courts.  If this is true, it's news to me! I'd like to see a listing of the court cases where this happened, wouldn't you? 

 For clarification, as I understand it,  sharia is religious guidance for Muslims while sharia law is Islamic jurisprudence.

New York Muslim leaders tell community not to talk to police on terror concerns!

New York Muslim leaders are flexing their collective muscle to encourage Muslims NOT TO COOPERATE with law enforcement who are charged with protecting a city that has been attacked twice by terrorists who practice the Islamic faith.   According to liberal Huffington Post NY Muslims Angry Over Spying: 'Don't Call NYPD' For Terror Concerns.

Responding to Sheryl Siddiqui's criticism of Oklahoma "Islamophobes"

Islam doesn't allow killing of "innocent people" Sheryl Siddiqui wrote in a commentary published in the Oklahoma Gazette on September 20th. Last year in another interview, Siddiqui claimed only God has the right to take life.  I wonder if she could possibly enlighten me and other misinformed and ignorant Okies just how The Atlas of Islamic Conquests, which is sold at Islamic bookstore in the U.S., fits in the context of her claim. I assume these battles for power involved fighting, which is messy and many people were, I'm sure, killed. Were these conquests islamically sanctioned or were they a stain that reflects badly on Islam's history?  This book could be a useful resource about Islam's history of of supremacy. No matter how you spin it Islamism dominated.
