Jihad watch

One of the more controversial planks in my program to defeat jihad in America is to strip the citizenship of naturalized U.S. citizens who are supporters of jihad and remove them from this country. Here is a prime candidate. Shaker Elsayed, new imam at the Dar al-Hijrah mosque in northern Virginia, spokesman for terror suspects, vocal supporter of Hamas, said in a recent Friday sermon:

Islam forbids you to give allegiance to those who kick you off your homeland, and to those who support those who kick you off your homeland. We do have license to respond with all force necessary to answer our attackers. [Italics added.]

Understand what he’s saying. Muslims, as we know, are commanded to wage jihad against anyone who occupies formerly Muslim lands, which of course means Israel. Further, Muslims can wage jihad, “using all force necessary,” against anyone who supports people who have occupied former Muslim lands. Thus any country that is friendly to Israel, even if it never had any previous contact with Islam, is an an “attacker” of Islam and a just target of jihad, its citizens considered combatants who can be killed. Elsayed is justifying holy war against the United States.

Elsayed was born in Egypt and is a naturalized U.S. citizen. He should not be in this country. His oath of citizenship is a fraud, since he has by his own testimony no loyalty to this country and is calling for war against it. I have no compunctions about saying this man should be stripped of his citizenship and removed from the United States. If America were a truly just country, a decent country, instead of an incipiently dhimmi country, this is what it would do.
