Islam’s Fifth Column?
That’s not very PC.
It is said the Nazi’s did it in WWII, and the North Vietnamese did it in the war for control over South Vietnam, and some believe it is happening in the West today. In the past, such beliefs led to internment camps for foreign nationals in various countries, an action which would be thought of as a violation of human rights today.
The following piece from Rod Dreher focuses on a Muslim Brotherhood document confiscated from the Virginia home of a suspected terrorist by the FBI in 1991. It reads rather like a Fifth Column movement to me.
This “explanatory memorandum,” as it’s titled, outlines the “strategic goal” for the North American operation of the extremist Muslim Brotherhood (Ikhwan). Here’s the key paragraph:
The process of settlement [of Islam in the United States] is a “Civilization-Jihadist” process with all the word means. The Ikhwan must understand that all their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and “sabotaging” their miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God’s religion is made victorious over all religions. Without this level of understanding, we are not up to this challenge and have not prepared ourselves for Jihad yet. It is a Muslim’s destiny to perform Jihad and work wherever he is and wherever he lands until the final hour comes, and there is no escape from that destiny except for those who choose to slack. - Dallas News
Of course, terrorist “sleeper cells” are believed to be in this country as well - maybe that is a more politically correct term to use.

Well, it’s spooky, that’s for sure. That’s why there was no comment on this. There’s no way to shut our eyes to what we only hope isn’t true; there has been too much that suggests we aren’t invulnerable to many kinds of infiltration. Sleeping so soundly within our collective spiritual weakness is what allowed a neo-Muslim joke of being sworn into American office on Jefferson’s ‘bible.’ When we serve a Jefferson — whether in his ‘bible’ or in his likeness on money(mammon) - more than we truly serve God, how can it not bloat the numbers of Nazis, Communists, KKK, radicals and survivalists and indeed, sleeper cells, within our midst.
