Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Hamas-linked CAIR claims Georgia mosques found to be “dangerous” are actually “warm and welcoming”

Jul 29, 2019 4:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Jihad Watch recently ran a piece, courtesy of United West and Sharia Crime Stoppers, which provided a sworn affidavit from a retired U.S. federal agent, counter-terrorism expert and Arabic linguist, Dave Gaubatz, who conducted an independent study of Georgia mosques. Gaubatz is also one of the authors of the book Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld that’s Conspiring to Islamize America. The Jihad Watch article was entitled “Georgia mosques teaching jihad, imam says ‘there has not been another 911 in America because Islam is winning.’” The affidavit concluded:

Final Evaluation of Statesboro, Georgia Mosque: Dangerous, but final evaluation pending.

Final Evaluation of Masjid Jihad, Savannah, Georgia: Dangerous, but final evaluation pending.

Final Evaluation of the Islamic Center of Savannah, Georgia: Extremely Dangerous (on a scale of 1-10 this mosque would be rated 9).

As a result of the study — which clearly provides evidence on why such mosques (which are by no means singular) and Islamic centers pose a threat to public safety — Hamas-linked CAIR has issued a “warning” to Georgia mosques “to be vigilant.” CAIR offers no rebuttal to Gaubatz’s charges other than to say that “Georgia mosques are warm and welcoming” and that the mosques need to be on the lookout for attacks.

No one said they weren’t “warm and welcoming,” and this is one of the biggest problems in Western culture: a lack of understanding of the fact that enemies of freedom can be “warm and welcoming” to your face while preaching the conquest and subjugation of infidels and apostates, and calling for other human rights abuses.

CAIR and other jihad-connected groups stifle information about abuses sanctioned by Islam, but they are quick to use victimhood when the spotlight is on them.

The July 8 sworn affidavit can be read HERE. It includes the goals and objectives of these “dangerous” to “extremely dangerous” jihad-preaching mosques, which are “warm and welcoming.”

“CAIR Warns Georgia Mosques to Be Vigilant,” International Quran News Agency, July 27, 2019:

One man said he was Muslim. The other man, he said, was his cousin, who wanted to learn more about Islam.

“We welcome anybody,” said Afaneh. “This is a place of worship.” He gave them a copy of the Quran and brochures on Islam and invited them to stay and listen to the Friday sermon. Something nagged at Afaneh, though, because “they didn’t look happy. They were not smiley or looked like people who were coming to a place to learn. I felt there was something not right about them.”

His suspicions were right and helped prompt a statewide warning. Afaneh said he found out through the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) that the men were alleged members of anti-Muslim groups Sharia Crime Stoppers and The United West, both labeled hate groups by the Southern Poverty Law Center. After their visits, they were “talking trash about the Islamic center. They said it was disgusting.”

One of the men wrote about his visit to the Savannah mosque in a report published on The United West website: “This would be a mosque that Islamic terrorists and their supporters who are travelling would feel comfortable attending,” he wrote. It also says in an analysis that “the IC of Savannah is the home for Islamic terrorists and their supporters and is used as a training base and regional HQ for developing the strategy for meeting the well-established and very open goal of forming an Islamic caliphate in America …”

Neither man could be reached for comment. Since then, the Georgia chapter of CAIR has warned mosques across the state to be vigilant.

“Georgia mosques are warm and welcoming and they should continue to be warm and welcoming, but we cannot let dangerous bigots take advantage of our hospitality by spying on us and inciting violence against us,” said Edward A. Mitchell, executive director of CAIR-Ga.

Mitchell said a second mosque in Statesboro was also visited. Jante Khabeer was at the Bulloch County Islamic Center in Statesboro in June when he heard knocking on the door. He called out to two men walking away. One pretended to be Muslim but mangled the traditional greeting. He also said “that he was Islam (not Muslim) and that the other man was interested in Islam.” “Something wasn’t clicking,” said Khabeer.

They asked when prayers began. By then, Khabeer suspected something was amiss. He told them 3 p.m., later than the 12:30 start time, when there would be fewer people. They didn’t return. He later recognized them from photos circulated by CAIR. He’s not afraid, just more alert. Many mosques have beefed up security in recent years, following several violent incidents and threats against Muslims in the United States and abroad.

In March, for instance, a massacre at two mosques in New Zealand left 51 people dead and scores injured. Much of the attack was broadcast live on Facebook. In the wake of that attack, mosques in metro Atlanta increased their security.

Accused shooter Brenton Tarrant, a suspected white supremacist, was arrested in the terrorist attack, the nation’s worst peacetime mass shooting. He recently pleaded not guilty.

And, in the US, a man, Craig Stephen Hicks, was arrested and charged with killing three Muslim college students in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, in 2015, which was largely described as a hate crime. Hicks, who pleaded guilty last month, was sentenced to three consecutive life sentences without parole.

The national office of CAIR documented a 17% increase in anti-Muslim bias incidents nationwide in 2017 over 2016. And those only include cases that were reported.

Afaneh now worries followers of anti-Muslim groups might inspire others to do harm or harass members of the mosque……

    “Spying”? On a place that’s supposedly open to the public? Pull my other leg… In any case, if there’s nothing shady going on, what’s there to be “spied”?…

      Mr. CAIR spokesperson……Of course you are going yo find Georgia mosques warm and welcoming even if the imams were preaching murder and chaos…Hmmmmm¿¿ You would say the same thing….
      The FBI is the ones who should be doing the investigating and if they find mosques to be DANGEROUS then they should shut them down and jail those in charge. besides… shouldn’t CAIR be declared a terrorist organization?
      I remember some time ago that Robert posited a list of muslim organizations that were connected to CAI R.
      I wish he would post it again.

    Hey–they’re “warm and welcoming” if you want to oppress and slaughter Infidels. What else could you want from a Mosque?

    Charles Manson was very warm and welcoming, and enticing, as was Ted Bundy, and you couldn’t find a more charming fellow than John Wayne Gacy, who loved to play a clown and amuse children. You really would have loved Gacy’s open house events when you could visit him, have some snacks, and ask him anything at all, and then see his basement. Everybody loved John, so don’t listen to what the bigots in the media say.

      Gacy was Mohamed’s lost cousin. Both liked to play with little children.

    Cults often have a friendly face for outsiders and yet can be different as one becomes more deeply involved. This includes my experience with the Moon Church in Berkeley, CA. or experiences with Scientology. I have been to both and they were indeed warm and welcoming. But I would not want to get too involved with either. There are exposees by people who were too deeply involved. I expect it is the same with some of these Muslim Centers. I remember a German woman I met in Minneapolis years ago. She said she was a Muslim and went to the Muslim center, and the people were very open minded there. Well that could be, but of course her experiences did not touch all the different sorts of experiences one can have in such places. At that time there were no fears of Jihad or Islamism, and there were not massive settlements of Somalis in Minneapolis. There was no Ilhan Omar in Congress and no Muslim policemen in squad cars responding to calls by frightened women. The situation was different from now. And if she had the same experience today, that would not necessarily say how it was in Georgia or in all Islamic Centers in America.

    Mosques should be banned and closed down immediately! Many Muslim countries don’t tolerate Churches and Synagogues being built so they forfeit the right to have their Mosques!

      Barbara,

      For better or worse in the United States all religions have the right to practice their faith any way they wish. As long as it does not interfere with the rights of others. Islam of course violates that on most every page of the Quran and the hadith’s. Unfortunately it is very difficult to get any alleged religion ban.

      HOWEVER, Islam is not just a religion, it is also a political system. With the Quran being highest legal authority of many nations, for instance Saudi Arabia. And there lies the key to removing Islam legally form the nation. Right now only the religious part of Islam is legally recognized. Getting the other part of what Islam is legally recognized, is the key. Getting Islam recognized legally as A hostile political and legal system of foreign nations attempting to overthrow the US government. (In the US knowing something is true and having it legally recognized are two very different things.)

      There are some groups that would like to see more people take the First step by refusing to call Islam a religion. Rather always Always refer to it as a tyrannical dictatorship that seeks to control every aspect of everyone’s life.

    from JNS dot org:

    “Under the Trump administration, the United States
    argued that UNRWA [United Nations Relief
    and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees]
    has perpetuated, rather than helped, end the
    Israeli-Palestinian conflict, by extending
    refugee status to the children, grandchildren
    and great-grandchildren of those who fled Israel
    during the establishment of the Jewish state in 1948.”

    CAIR is warning mosques that observers and police agents are watching what is said in mosques, so Muslim leaders are being warned to scrub all jihad-related promotions in their mosques. This in effect cripples recruitment for jihad. They are putting the mosques’ nefarious activities at risk even if they mention jihad.

    So CAIR is driving jihad-training further underground, requiring the police to search more diligently. It should be remembered that the leading jihad-trainer (the late Anwar Awlaki) was considered a ‘moderate’ Muslim, even though his videos and sermons (presented underground) led tens of thousands of young Muslims to join terrorist groups.

    If cops watch this Georgia mosque, they will eventually find terrorist groups working within it and perhaps connections to terrorist leaders overseas.

    “warm and welcoming”?

    A mosque?

    Dedicated to a pagan Arab god lah:a god who CURSES Christians for believing in Jesus Christ k9:30 and Jews on a false premise{“and the Jews say ‘Ezra is the son of allah”.No they don’t!}

    A god who tells muslim k5:51:-

    “Oh ye who believe!Take not the Jews and Christians for friends”
    {It seems al lah missed the 2nd chief commandment of God ..Lev 19:18}

    A god who preaches a Doctrine of HATRED{al walaa wal baraa}

    A god who claims to be the “BEST of deceivers” k3:54:that’s satan himself!

    “warm and welcoming”?

    Who do muslims think they are fooling with their false pagan Arab god, LAH,a plagiarzed “holy” book riddled with scientific,theological and logical errors,a self-confessed false “prophet” muhammed{al tabari 6:111..and a mass-murderer too Abu Dawud 4390}?

    Seems odd that a so called Religion of Peace has Compounds across the US where Terrorist activity is both in Mosque’s & in secluded areas where land has been obtained & they are allowed to establish non Muslim zone restrictions sad thing is there are a lot of Stupid people that think it is Racist to stop this activity.

    The enemy may smile to your face, but behind his back he hides a knife. Once you turn, the smile turns into an angry scowl and the knife… well… you know.
