Fear, Inc. The Roots of the Islamophobia Network
Sep 18th, 2014 at 4:00pm
 
Fear, Inc. The Roots of the Islamophobia Network in America, is an article well worth reading it,

Quote:
reveals not a vast right-wing conspiracy behind
the rise of Islamophobia in our nation but rather a small, tightly net
-
worked group of misinformation experts guiding an effort that reach
-
es millions of Americans through effective advocates, media partners,
and grassroots organizing. This spreading of hate and misinformation
primarily starts with five key people and their organizations, which
are sustained by funding from a clutch of key foundations.
The funding

More than $40 million flowed from seven foundations over 10 years.

The foundations funding the misinformation experts:
Donors Capital Fund; Richard Mellon Scaife Foundation;
Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation; Newton and Rochelle Becker
Foundation and Newton and Rochelle Becker Charitable Trust;
Russell Berrie Foundation, Anchorage Charitable Fund and William
Rosenwald Family Fund; Fairbrook Foundation.
The misinformation experts

Five experts generate the false facts and materials used by political
leaders, grassroots groups, and the media:

Frank Gaffney at the Center for Security Policy

David Yerushalmi at the Society of Americans for National Existence

Daniel Pipes at the Middle East Forum

Robert Spencer of
Jihad Watch and Stop Islamization of America

Steven Emerson of the Investigative Project on Terrorism

These experts travel the country and work with or testify before
state legislatures calling for a ban on the nonexisting threat of
Sharia law in America and proclaiming that the vast majority of
mosques in our country harbor Islamist terrorists or sympathizers.


It is well worth reading and it is remarkable how often the names of those people keep re-occurring here, in the posts of certain people.   Are Freediver, Soren, Yadda, Moses, Baronvert just their willing disciples or are they actually being paid to spread their Islamophobia?   Why are they spreading the lies and deception and fomenting violence against Muslims in this forum all the time?   Perhaps we need their motives investigated as well?   Grin Grin Cheesy Cheesy Grin Grin Cheesy Cheesy

Why is there nothing like this in relation to hindus,  buddhists,  sikhs,  atheists,  christians of any hue,  jews. What is it about islam?
Why not start something if you think it's not about islam?  Why not corner the untapped fear of sikhs,  or fear of christians market?

I say, here's the old boy blaming the Muselman for everybody's fear of him.

I'm sure you know the Jews started WWII, old chap. If it wasn't for them making the Nazis' fear them so, we'd all still be getting along.

Quote:
the deeply mistaken portrayal of Islam—a religion of nearly 1.6 billion people worldwide, including 2.6 million Americans—as an inherently violent ideology that seeks domination over the United States and all non-Muslims. sup]1[/sup] Spencer neatly sums up their inaccurate and perverse view of  Islam as “the only religion in the world that has a developed doctrine, theologyand legal system that mandates violence against unbelievers and mandates that Muslims must wage war in order to establish the hegemony of the Islamic social order all over the world.”2

[Source]

Quote:
]The latest calculated smear against Islam and Muslims in America
by the small but vocal members of the Islamophobia network is the
deliberate misdefinition of Sharia, or Islamic religious law. This network
mischaracterizes Sharia as a totalitarian ideology of hate and triumphalism committed to replacing the U.S. Constitution with a radical Islamist
Caliphate that will subordinate and punish all non-Muslim adherents.
This description is unrecognizable to the overwhelming majority of
Muslims here and abroad. In fact, Sharia is followed in part and in
different ways by every practicing Muslim. There is no Ten Commandments that encapsulate Sharia. Instead it is, for Muslims, the ideal law
of God as interpreted by Muslim scholars over centuries to achieve
justice, fairness, and mercy through personal religious observance
such as prayer and fasting.1

Undeterred, the Islamophobia network’s description of Sharia is
spread based on a sophisticated misinformation campaign designed to draw donations to the right-wing foundations, think tanks,grassroots organizations, and conservative Christian fundamentalist
groups, to drum up political campaign contributions and votes for
radical right-wing politicians, and to boost the political power of
right-wing media organizations that promote such hate and fear.
Here’s a sampling of the Islamophobia network’s consistent public
campaign to use their skewed version of Sharia over time for their
own monetary and political ends.

The Center for Security Policy’s Frank Gaffney warns that a new
missile defense logo is evidence of Obama’s submission to Sharia:

Quote:
Team Obama’s anti-anti-missile initiatives are not simply
acts of unilateral disarmament of the sort to be expected
from an Alinsky acolyte. They seem to fit an increasingly
obvious and worrying pattern of official U.S. submission
to Islam and the theo-political-legal program the latter’s
authorities call Shariah.
2

Islamophobia grassroots activist Brigitte Gabriel promotes her ACT!
for America conference on Radical Islam:

Quote:
They also need to understand the many ways in which jihad
is being carried out against the United States, from violent
jihad to “stealth” jihad to the advance of creeping shariah
Islamic law into our society.
3

Propagandist Andrew McCarthy, a leading purveyor of the “creeping
Sharia” myth, writes an article on The National Review with the title: The President Stands With Sharia 4

Sound familiar, Soren?  It's very much in the same vein to what you claim, isn't it?   Roll Eyes

Facts,  Brain,  not opinions and counter-opinions.
And I do not see how Spencer's quoted assertion is shown to be inaccurate. 
You might not like the forthright language but I can't see any evidence that the substance of the Spencer quote is factually wrong.
