“Freedom is not a gift bestowed upon us by other men, but a right that belongs to us by the laws of God and nature.”
– Benjamin Franklin
Nearly nineteen years after the jihadist attacks on 11 September 2001, a willful blindness within the United States Government (USG) blocks any meaningful response to the ongoing subversive and seditious activities of the global Islamic Movement and U.S. Council of Muslim Organizations (USCMO). This demonstrates a systemic failure to recognize the totality of the enemy threat doctrine and its lines of effort aimed at the key pillars of American society. The decision by presumptive Democratic Party presidential nominee, former U.S. Vice President Joseph R. Biden, to select Farooq A. Mitha as his senior advisor on Muslim American engagement is a case study of this enemy’s subversive capabilities and our continuing inability to recognize or counter them.
This is the first of three articles that will offer an examination during the 2020 election cycle of the activities and coordination by the USCMO, Muslim Brotherhood, and presidential candidate Biden’s senior advisor Farooq A. Mitha that illustrate the Islamic Movement’s domestic insurgency in this Nation. Understanding this domestic insurgency, followed by citizen and leadership action, will be critical to defeat this growing threat. This series will delineate the dangers during a decisive period, as the left is engaged in political warfare and strategically collaborating with the Islamic Movement through a Red-Green Axis to disrupt not only the 2020 presidential election, but future elections across the country at local, state, and federal levels.
In March 2020, Farooq Mitha, an attorney ineligible to practice in Florida due to delinquent fees with the Florida Bar Association, was interviewed and asked about his plans working for Biden to get Muslim communities to vote in key battleground states in November 2020. Mitha, an advisor for the Democratic Party, was formerly Director of Muslim Outreach for the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton in 2016. Mitha summarized his experience:
“I have a long track record of working within Muslim American communities, particularly on civic and political engagement…I hope that this history along with the relationships I have developed with community leaders across the country allows me to effectively reach out with the credibility that I have the best interests of our communities in mind.”
The relationships cultivated by Mitha provide investigative evidence about his nexuses to leadership within the Islamic Movement and Muslim Brotherhood and their influence operations targeting the American electoral process. These objectives include the advancement of the Muslim Brotherhood’s Civilization Jihad and process of settlement in accordance with the gradualist framework, described by the influential Brotherhood theoretician Sayyid Qutb in his seminal book Milestones in 1964.
Farooq A. Mitha is a co-founder and former executive director of Emgage USA (previously Emerge USA), where he is currently a board member. Mitha, who served in the administration of President Barack H. Obama as Special Assistant to the Director of the U.S. Department of Defense Office of Small Business Programs, has addressed the Islamic Movement during Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) events. The U.S. Department of Justice named ISNA (a Muslim Brotherhood front group) as an unindicted co-conspirator in the 2008 USA v. Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development HAMAS terror funding case.
Mitha’s relationship with Khurrum Basir Wahid, which began prior to their creation of Emerge USA (renamed Emgage USA), is also significant due to Islamic Movement and Muslim Brotherhood connections shared by both. According to the Muslim Public Affairs Committee (MPAC, another Muslim Brotherhood front group), Wahid was Chair of the Center for Voter Advocacy, a registered 527 political organization, where Mitha was Treasurer for the Center for Advocacy – FPAC.
Wahid is also a founding Emgage USA member and serves as one of its national co-chairs. He has been a legal advisor for the national office of the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), also named by the U.S. Department of Justice as an unindicted co-conspirator in the HLF case. CAIR is a documented HAMAS off-shoot; in 1997 the U.S. Department of State designated HAMAS a foreign terrorist organization.
CAIR Florida cites the legal work of Wahid (past CAIR Florida executive director) as an attorney who helps “travelers stuck at ports of entry by offering free legal advice.” CAIR National has continually challenged the legality of U.S. President Donald J. Trump’s travel restrictions on foreign nationals entering this Nation “from countries that failed to meet minimum baseline requirements for immigration screening and vetting.”
Emgage USA is presented by Wahid as a national nonprofit civic engagement organization with chapters across the United States in Florida, Texas, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New York, and Virginia that “works to empower “emerging majority” communities, with a focus on Muslim Americans, to participate more in public and community and public service. Emgage USA accomplishes this thorough the development of young people as our future leadership, development of data to provide solid metrics for future success, and development of an active and engaged voter base.”
Khurrum has played an instrumental role for fourteen years as the chair of Emgage Action and PAC, known for its “political advocacy and action committee designed to support progressive legislation and elected officials who show support for the diverse emerging majority of communities and their issues.”
Emgage USA in fact is a key member of the USCMO, the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood’s political umbrella group and the leading edge of the jihadist movement in North America. The fact that Farooq Mitha is a senior advisor to a U.S. presidential candidate and simultaneously sits on the board of a USCMO member organization, when the USCMO has a close jihadist alliance with the pro-HAMAS regime of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and his Justice and Development Party, ought to be a red flag warning. In forthcoming Part Two of this series, the inner workings of the influence operations of the Islamic Movement, USCMO, and Muslim Brotherhood inside the Democratic Party and Biden campaign will be established.

I wonder if Joe Biden has got the foggiest idea of what political Islam is as an ideology. If he ever had a clue about Islamism, I further wonder how much cognitive decline he has undergone following TWO brain operations and in advanced old age. His constant befuddlement would make him a target of Islamists hoping to manipulate a seemingly ‘dottering old fool’ and evince concessions from him favorable to Islamic supremacism.
The world is always a lot calmer and safer when the United States has a president who is feared by dictators. Joe Biden would not be feared by Islamists. Political upheavals will erupt if Biden is elected (God forbid) … I shudder to imagine how catastrophic that could be.
‘Foggy’ seems to be the best one word to describe Biden.
David says
I completely endorse your comments. Biden was born 20th November, 1942.
If he is elected, then on 20th January, 2021 when his Presidency starts, he will be 78 years and 2 months old.
Ronald Reagan, at the end of his two-term Presidency, was two weeks short of his 78th birthday.
Biden will be the oldest ever President. Will a 78 year old have the stamina and mental acuity to do the job?
He will just be a figurehead – manipulated and controlled by his advisers.
Also, his choice of Vice-President will be crucial as the chances are that he may well die in office, particularly if he’s elected for a second term when he will be 82.

An important issue, as David pointed out, who he will select to be the VP?
In my opinion, he doesn’t need to choose someone capable of the duties of President of the USA; he needs someone who can energize the people, someone who has the charisma to attract the voters, rally the troops and get the vote out.
The deep state, as usual, will do the rest.

Airline pilots are forced to retire on or before their 65th birthday. Imagine how safe you’d feel with two 78 year old Joe Bidens in the cockpit. To have one begin a 4 year term at that age leading our nation is a really bad plan.
PRCS says
Today is my 70th birthday.
I haven’t had to pass a third-class medical for the past 4 years: since my driver license replaced that requirement.
Can fly a 206, for example, anywhere in the nation: all the way up to17,999′ msl, and people in their 80’s do still fly.
But, with Biden in mind, I wouldn’t want him–or me–at the controls of a 747: at any altitude.

A big day. Congratulations. Stay strong, we both know flying is fun. Would be hard to give up.
Up until 2008, retirement age was 60. When it changed to 65, it was a great deal for 59 year olds, but it caused a whole lot of stagnation and furloughs in the industry below them. Most of us, including I, didn’t want the change. Of all the pilots on property at the time, far more careers were harmed than improved overall with the change. I took a huge hit too, which came on the heels of an enormous 9/11 hit…but I digress.
There was research done at the time, and what they determined is that as a pilot ages, he gains experience, which makes him better. But at a certain age, the reduction in cognitive ability and dexterity outweighed any benefit from increased experience. They came up with 55. Said another way, they determined the high water mark for a pilot is age 55, and he begins slowly declining beyond that. Generally speaking of course, some reach the high water mark earlier or later.
They’re talking about raising the retirement age to 67 now, FWIW.
Personally, I can certainly notice as I age, it takes a little more effort and focus to get the same results as when I was younger. Seemed really easy when I was 38. I wouldn’t want to fly a 747 much past 65 either. Well, I’d want to, but know that I shouldn’t. But hope to fly private until the day I die. Low flying, canyons and back-country is my pleasure.
There are certainly some sharp 78 year olds, but I don’t think Joe Biden is one of them.
PRCS says
Mortimer:
There is no separation between ‘church and state’ in Islam because it is–by both design and definition–a theocracy.
*Theocracy is a form of government in which a deity of some type is recognized as the supreme ruling authority, giving divine guidance to human intermediaries that manage the day-to-day affairs of the government.
The Farooq Mitha’s among us, having so successfully convinced our clueless politicians that ‘a tiny minority of Muslims’ have hijacked Islam’s true, peaceful teachings use every deceit to reinforce and further their ignorance.
The term ‘political Islam’ is one of them.

PRCS: Very appropriate that Wellington held up Olivia de Havilland – (104 today) – as an example of longevity to a pilot such as yourself.
(For the benefit of JW readers who aren’t familiar with aviation history, what Wellington didn’t spell out in his post was that the reason that Olivia de Havilland is such a fitting example to a pilot of long-life and good health, is that she and her sister, Joan Fontaine, were cousins of famed aircraft designer Geoffrey de Havilland.
He designed and flew his first aircraft in 1909, and his second design of 1910 became the first aircraft to be given a type number by Britain’s Royal Aircraft Factory.
In the 1920s he designed such aircraft as the de Havilland Gypsy Moth, Leopard Moth, and the famous Tiger Moth. (A friend of mine owned several Tiger Moths which he hired out for film work such as “The Blue Max” / “Villa Rides Again” and others, becoming friends with Burt Lancaster and other Hollywood stars in the process. (Once, I even got genuine Tiger Moth dirt on my hands from stripping the “Gypsy Major” engine…)
His 1930s “Comet” record-breaker led to the superb twin Merlin-engined de Havilland “Mosquito” fighter-bomber of WW2. Post-war, de Havilland also produced the world’s first jet airliner – also called the “Comet”.
There is a memorial to mark the site of de Havillands first flights, set in a field a short walk from a lay-by on the A34 where it runs down from near where I live in Northampton, down through Oxfordshire, Berkshire, and Hampshire, down to the old capital city of Winchester.
This road from the centre of England down to the South Coast was required by the King to be maintained in sufficiently good order that a column of armed and mounted knights could ride 16-abreast down it, if summoned to defend the coast of England from foreign invaders.
The current “leaders” of our country could learn much both from the industry and patriotism of Geoffrey de Havilland, and from the wiser rulers of centuries past.
PRCS says
Aviation’s ‘Golden Age’.
I commend your knowledge of aviation history.
A group in New Zealand restored a Mosquito. What a fine aircraft. There’s a Fox Moth there, too.
And the Comet jet. Triumph to tragedy to triumph.
David says
I live near Hatfield, England, home of de Havilland. (now a University campus). A nearby hotel had a model of the Comet, on a plinth.
Daniel Triplett says
Fascinating Phil. I hadn’t made the connection. Yes, de Havilland was a very big deal in aviation and aircraft building. His legacy still is.
I’m impressed with your knowledge. I’ve spent a whole lot of time in England with the USAF. So many good times. I loved going to the local pubs and enjoying a pint with guys like you who loved airplanes as much as I do. No one does that better than the English.

I look forward to your future articles. It takes a lot of research to uncover the workings and connections of the Muslim brotherhood aligned groups and those affiliated with them.

If you’re saying that the Democrat party has been bought and paid for by Muslim organizations, we know that. We already know the Democrat party will do anything the Muslim groups tell it to do. We can easily figure out that Muslim political groups are going to give a lot of support to Joe Biden.

The situation is more profound than just the Democratic party succumbing to Islam.
The late Phillip Haney reveals the extent of Islam’s influence in the USA in his book, See Something, Say Nothing. As does John D. Guandolo in his book, Raising a Jihadi Generation: Understanding the Muslim Brotherhood Movement in America.
Islam does represent a clear and present danger to the USA; however, it is not the only threat we need to be concerned about.
China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Cuba are all joining forces to bring about the destruction of the USA. They have created a formidable Fifth Column inside the USA as we are currently witnessing all over the country.
The road ahead is uncertain; the economy is in ruins, and that alone, puts Trump’s re-election in serious jeopardy.
Batten down the hatches, the worst is yet to come.

Biden is a decrepit husk who has no business to even consider occupying the office of President.
His cognitive impairment is evident whenever he speaks.
His eyes reflect the emptiness of his mind.
What could possibly go wrong if he is elected to the most demanding executive position in the USA ?
James Lincoln says
A Joe Biden presidency would be essentially Obama 2.0.
The accomplishments of Pres. Trump would be reversed – quickly.
And the “puppet in cognitive decline” would be manipulated / controlled by Leftists / muslim brotherhood front groups / the Deep State, etc.
An absolute disaster…

What a witless tool.
Wellington says
Biden is almost certainly in the early stages of senility and, with complete certainty, I would state still utterly ignorant of what Islam intends for America, for the West at large and all the world.
Being a resident of Pennsylvania all my life and with Delaware the sister state of Penn’s Commonwealth (came ever so close to being part of Pennsylvania as Penn wished), I could not help but follow Biden’s life and career, from his being born in northeastern PA, to his undergraduate days at the University of Delaware (where he did not have three majors per Joe), and then on to Syracuse University for law school in upstate New York and where, per one of the greatest mayors in the history of New York City, one Rudy Giuliani, Biden was as dumb as one could be and still graduate from law school.
I don’t mean to be cruel here, just accurate. Joe Biden has always been a mediocrity, another useless politician (for 48 some years no less) and now he is running for the most powerful office on earth and he is now even less than mediocre. He is completely controlled by his handlers and the DNC, both of whom hope he can make it past November 3rd, beating Trump, and then such low-life handlers will thereafter on the cuff try to figure out how to get rid of Biden totally by way of resignation—or keep him as a pure figure head.
Yes, this awful. And if I am wrong here, then I know nothing about American history, American politics, American law, Pennsylvania and Delaware politics, or that extraordinary, less than ordinary, person—one Joe Biden.
To put it succinctly, Biden elected to the Presidency would prove to be a disaster for America, for the West at large, for mankind at large—though the Chinese, the Islamic world and other reprobate-like entities would be delighted should he be.
I have no doubt about this. None. And even if one has many reservations about Trump (personally I don’t—maybe a few minor matters—but nothing major), consider this if you are an American voter: Do you want Biden or Trump in charge of the economy, of judicial picks, of dealing with China, of decreasing unemployment, of handling the coronavirus, of the American military, of NATO, of Islamic terrorism, of…, of…, of…..

So Muslims are going to give money to the Biden campaign, and expect special favors in return. The Democrat party, which has no ethical principles, is more than eager to help out.

Wellington says,
“…Biden elected to the Presidency would prove to be a disaster for America, for the West at large, for mankind at large—though the Chinese, the Islamic world and other reprobate-like entities would be delighted should he be.
I have no doubt about this.”
Neither do I, Wellington – and neither should any clear-thinking person.
Pres. Trump is loud, crude, and has a ultra strong ego. And JFK type liberals don’t “like” him because he is not “nice”. But when pressed to answer what they do not like about his policies, they deflect. And, like you said before, they will probably vote for Trump and not tell anybody.
I’m okay with with Pres. Trump because his POLICIES are sound – and that’s ALL that should matter.

“Obama is the head of infidelity, and killing him automatically will make Biden take over the presidency,” bin Laden wrote, according to a 2012 Washington Post article. “Biden is totally unprepared for that post, which will lead the U.S. into a crisis.”
That was what bin laden thought a decade ago.

If we only could follow the money being pumped into the democratic and republican parties from foreign nations it would probably scare the hell out of us.
