Muslim "Trojan Horse" At Pentagon Update

This is just amazing. The Muslim Brotherhood member was cleared of any wrongdoing by his FRIEND at the Pentagon. Whatever happened to an independent investigation? So now we have a Muslim Brotherhood member at the Pentagon, CAIR training the FBI about Islam and an Islamofascist Congressman who is a CAIR supporter. What's next a Hezbollah leader in the White House?


Islam cleared



Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England cleared his special assistant of any wrongdoing related to a run-in with former Joint Staff analyst Stephen Coughlin, and amid questions about the Muslim aide's background.



"The deputy secretary's office has thoroughly reviewed the issues of concern raised by a few members of Congress and the media and has concluded there is no reason to question Cmdr. Hesham Islam's credibility or his allegiance to his country," Pentagon press secretary Geoff Morrell told Inside the Ring.



Mr. Islam, a retired Navy commander, came under criticism after a meeting last fall with Mr. Coughlin, a leading specialist on the relationship between Islamic law and terrorism, when Mr. Islam told associates that Mr. Coughlin was a "Christian zealot with a pen" because of his hard-line views on the ties between extremism and Islam.



Additionally, journalist Claudia Rosett wrote a National Review Online article questioning Mr. Islam's official biography that had been posted on the official Pentagon Web site and was removed after her article ran.



Miss Rosett noted that Mr. Islam claimed to be in Cairo when it was bombed by Israel in 1967, but there are no records of bombing the Egyptian capital, only the airport near Cairo.



Mr. Islam also claimed to have been on board a freighter sunk by an Iranian torpedo in the Persian Gulf, but that could not be verified.



Investigators determined there are some things that are "unknowable" about Mr. Islam's background.



Some defense security officials said the discrepancies raise concerns because Mr. Islam holds a security clearance.



Mr. England's investigators also denied that Mr. Islam or Mr. England got Mr. Coughlin fired from the contractor position as a Joint Staff analyst, which happened after the contentious meeting between Mr. Islam and the analyst. Mr. Coughlin left the Joint Staff last month and is working for the Office of the Secretary of Defense shop for special operations and low-intensity conflict.



Mr. Morrell said Mr. Islam has assisted Mr. England for the past three years and is "a valuable adviser" who helps with Mr. England's contacts with foreign officials.



Mr. England also wrote to three members of Congress who had raised security concerns about Mr. Islam to state his support for Mr. Islam and the diplomatic outreach program he runs.



Rep. Peter Hoekstra, Michigan Republican and ranking member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, was one of the three who had asked Mr. England to look into Mr. Islam's background.

"when Mr. Islam told associates that Mr. Coughlin was a "Christian zealot with a pen" "

What does he want, a muslim jihadi with a rusty blade?

Deceit runs deep. The enemy is among us.

the word for it is Taqiyya, a concept that give permission to deceive is infidels.

Taqiyya refers to dissimulation, the process of disguising one’s true intentions by erecting a facade pleasing to unsuspecting victims. At Jihad Watch, Gregory M. Davis explains it like this:

[quote] In times when the greater strength of dar al-harb [the House of War – places dominated by infidels] necessitates that the jihad take an indirect approach, the natural attitude of a Muslim to the infidel world must be one of deception and omission. Revealing frankly the ultimate goal of dar al-Islam to conquer and plunder dar al-harb when the latter holds the military trump cards would be strategic idiocy.[/quote]

Sounds to me that our utter ignorance of Islamic "interlopers" as Michael Savage puts it, are destroying us from within.

Baal, as we saw with the deceased Jordanian terrorist Al-Zaqawi, he used rusty blades to decapitate hostages. Made him look more savage.

We are in a world of **** with our ignorance. The jihadi interlopers will become stronger and the infidels weaker.
