- Realm of Truth (a.k.a. Jinnzaman’s Blog). This blog is run by Abdul Haqq, whose entire interests include “Jihad of the Sword and Heart.†Haqq is not happy with those that “try to define Jihad solely as being defensive,†and he does not recognize Israel as a legitimate state. He writes of a chilling future, when he states, “The victory of HAMAS and the Muslim Brotherhood in elections, the continued persistency of the Taliban in Afghanistan, the formation of an entrenched Iraqi resistance, Muslim protests against Western hegemony… are we finally witnessing the long-awaited Islamic response to imperialism?… Islam is coming up from the underground and it will seize the day.†He also says that he wants the MSA to take “active steps†to “instigate†an “Islamic revolution.â€
Oh I just love how they quoted virtually everything out of context.
I also love how they have the audacity to put the links to my actual blog posts that illustrate exactly how far out of context they’ve quoted me.
Ladies and gentlemen, that is what we call “moxi.”

I don’t see how those comments could ever be “in context”.

Israel is a state which was created by force and continually uses force as a primary instrument of its policy. It is difficult to see how such an organization could claim to be a legitimate state. As for the signs of a coming Islamic response to imperialism, one does not have to approve of these ’signs’ in order to approve of what they signify. We could be resisting in the wrong way, which is a prelude to resisting in the right way. And as for supporting an Islamic Revolution, AbdulHaqq has a very specific meaning of this term, one which in tails an intellectual revolution in our world view and priorities which is to precede any attempt to create a trully just society. We are Muslims; to us, any society that claims to be just must rule in accord with the Divine Law which it is our duty to uphold. This includes struggling (Jihad) against oppression wherever it can be found, out in the world or in our hearts. This struggle includes that of non-Muslims who live under oppression; witness the growing ties between Muslim countries and the new leftist governments in Latin America.

Oh yeah, according to the website ISNA and CAIR are fanatical radical Islamist groups. And complaining about the current sorry state of Kashrut standards makes you guilty of “contempt for Jews.” What’s really sad is that they are using the same tactics which were once used by Anti-Semites against us, yet no one is willing to call them on it.

Have you read the original posts that were linked in his article?
You don’t consider his comments to be an unfair representation of my comments?

Front Page Mag is David Horrowitz’s right wing “news” mag. Besides the scary stories about “jihadis,” one can read about who is “really” behind the recent pro-immigrant protests, how them foreigners are hurtin’ good ol’ true bred Americans, or what crazy things that lovable old crank Chompsky is up to.
