Last year Governor Tom Vilsack was praised for his dhimmitude by radical Islamist Ibrahim Dremali , Imam of the Islamic Center of Des Moines, when he proclaimed 'Muslim Recognition Day' and Des Moines Mayor Cownie followed suit, making Iowa's transformation to the Umma official. For their part Muslims could not contain their glee at the blissful submission displayed by public officials and saw their public acknowledgement of Islam and regarded it as the first step before conversion. "For the first time, members of four area mosques welcomed Iowans to "join in the making of history and get a taste of what it feels to be a Muslim." Emboldened by sucess Iowa Muslims quickly announced their own mayoral candidate and Sol Mohammed wrote in the Iowa Muslim newsletter that: In addition to the dhimmitude of local politicians Iowa Muslims have been exploiting taxpayer funding and state and federally funded institutions to promote their political, social and educational Jihad. An example of the degree to which Muslims are attempting to main stream Islamism in Iowa can be seen in the fact that The 1st conference of the Islamic Foundation of Iowa did not take place in a mosque, but was held at at the taxpayer funded Central Middle School in Waterloo Iowa, despite having being a religious gathering with unmistakeably Islamo supremacist agenda : "The practical structure of building an Islamic society -Come to know the future visions and plans for Muslims in Iowa." In 2003 a Reza Aslan, then a visiting professor at Iowa U, and a stealth Islamist, overtly declared that Muslims felt more loyalty towards the Umma (the worldwide community) then the United States: "As a Muslim American, you belong to two communities," said Aslan, who often takes the role of spokesman for Iowa Muslims. "Your first allegiance is as an American citizen. You belong to the community of the United States. However, Muslims also belong to a second community as well, the community of worldwide Muslims http://www.newhouse <http://www.newhousenews.com/archive/okeefe031903.html> news.com/archive/okeefe031903.html MIM: The use of a public school premises for such a Muslims only event does not violate Iowa laws regarding the separation of church and state, and is being exploited by Islamists who are able but (The conference included 'adult and children's lectures in english and Bosnian and a sleepover ) The way the Muslims obtained the premises is another example the radical Islamist strategy at work which Dr. Daniel Pipes refers to as 'stealth Islamists' ,whose strategy is to get Muslims into positions in public and political life who can promote an Islamist agenda aimed at acheiving the implementation of shari'a by undermining the system from within. This type of 'cultural Jihad' can prove more effective in destroying America through the physical Jihad of terrorist attacks. As Muslim Brotherhood founder Sheik Yusuf Qaradawi pointed out in 1995: 'America will not be conquered by the sword - but by da'wa'. Al Qawadawi 's prediction is coming to fruition in Iowa. A case in point is the recent formation of a Ceder Rapids branch of the Muslim American Society, a group whose plans for America are in it's name. The group made their announcement at a library and the Mayor, Kay Halloran, welcomed the Al Qaeda linked group with open arms: "I want everyone to know how happy I am this organization has chosen Cedar Rapids as its home," she said during the ceremony. "We are honored and delighted to have you with us." For their part the MAS director made it clear that Iowa was on the fast track to becoming part of the Umma and the first state in their goal of a Muslim American Society: It's a perfect time to introduce the Muslim American Society to the state of Iowa," said Cedar Rapids resident Mohamad Elmasry, executive director and director of media relations for the new chapter. "We hope that our comprehensive services will be assets to Iowa's Muslim community and the Iowa community at large." http://www.masnet. <http://www.masnet.org/masnews.asp?id=3248> org/masnews.asp?id=3248 In Iowa Saudi funded groups like MAS which register as non profits, need only pay a nominal custodial fee in order to use public premises like schools, universities and libraries. This is a great boom for da'wa since these venues will enable them to attract non Muslims, who are already using the facilities and will be lured to a lecture about Islam under the pretence of broadening their 'cultural awareness'. It is no coincidence that the former president of the Islamic Center of Des Moines, Ako Ahmed Abdul Samad is a member of the Des Moines school board and is trying to move from a a civil service post to infiltrate the state government by running for state representative in order to push an Islamist agenda and gain more ground for Muslims both by pushing for Muslim interests and propagating Islam under the guise of multi culturalism and diversity. In 1995 Dr. Daniel Pipes explained the threat posed by militant Islam "Unnoticed by most Westerners, war has been unilaterally declared on Europe and the United States". More then a decade later the template for Jihad being waged in the U.S. can be seen in the case Iowa, where radical Islamists are in the process of turning one America's heartland into the first Islamic state. Since arriving in Iowa in 2004 Former Boca Raton Imam Ibrahim Dremali has opened an Islamic New Horizons School with the funding from the Wahhabist Islamic Society of North America and is teaching an Islam 101 course at Drake University. Dremali has even broadcast his proclivity for martydom on Iowa television, when asked about the Danish cartoons during an interview the keffiyah clad cleric replied: "Prophet Mohammed, praise be unto him, to us, he's more valuable than even our own lives, own kids. God is No. 1 and then Mohammed. When they attack him, they attack the whole of Muslim -- 1.9 billion Muslims," Dremali said. http://www.kcci. <http://www.kcci.com/news/6792139/detail.html> com/news/6792139/detail.html In an article about Muslim Recognition Day Dremali , who adheres to the Islamist creed of lying to infidels whenever opportune, went from bellicose to bucolic, oozing unctuousness when he spoke of Muslim reaction to the Danish cartoons and made nary a mention of Muslims being obligated to fight to the death for their prophet's honor. "Muslims in Iowa and the United States would just handle it in a peaceful way," said Ibrahim Dremali, imam for the Des Moines Islamic Center, 6211 Franklin Ave. "Muslims in Iowa are more interested in teaching people about Islam. Perhaps we are wiser when it comes to such things." (Des Moines Register) " A Jihad through da'wa (Islamic propagation) event was held at Iowa State University. Organized by Islamic Center of Des Moines Imam Ibrahim Dremali . A report of the conference in the University paper was headlined "Convention celebrates, educates Iowa Muslims" explained that: "Iowa was selected as the location for the Da'wah convention because the very first Muslims in the United States settled in Cedar Rapids, where they built the first mosque which is a Muslim center of worship. The conference was intended to "celebrate the legacy of the first Muslims in the United States" The organizers lamented that not many ISU non Muslim students as potential converts were in attendance and claimed it was due to 'lack of information'. The conference was also geared to non Muslims, courses included Islam 101, The Birthright Ignored, The Purpose of Existence, and the sure fire crowd pleaser Muhammed's Beloved Ones- Are You One? http://www.iowastat <http://www.iowastatedaily.com/media/storage/paper818/news/2006/05/01/News/C onvention.Celebrates.Educates.Iowa.Muslims-1896838.shtml?norewrite2006110110 34&sourcedomain=www.iowastatedaily.com> edaily.com/media/storage/paper818/news/2006/05/01/News/Convention.Celebrates .Educates.Iowa.Muslims-1896838.shtml?norewrite200611011034&sourcedomain=www. iowastatedaily.com In another stunning example of Iowan dhimmitude ,Cedar Rapids Mayor Kay Halloran welcomed the Muslim American Society, whose goal is in their name, and gushed how honored and delighted she was that the Al Qaeda linked Muslim Brotherhood organisation had chosen her town as their new Jihad HQ. http://www.masnet. <http://www.masnet.org/masnews.asp?id=3248> org/masnews.asp?id=3248 Muslim Group Opens Iowa Chapter in C.R. Cedar Rapids Mayor Kay Halloran spoke at the ceremony to welcome the organization to Cedar Rapids. "I want everyone to know how happy I am this organization has chosen Cedar Rapids as its home," she said during the ceremony. "We are honored and delighted to have you with us." Published: 03/19/2006 By: Angela Meng - The Gazette CEDAR RAPIDS, IA - Calling for a better understanding of their culture, organizers officially opened the newest chapter of the Muslim American Society Sunday afternoon at the Cedar Rapids Public Library. "It's a perfect time to introduce the Muslim American Society to the state of Iowa," said Cedar Rapids resident Mohamad Elmasry, executive director and director of media relations for the new chapter. "We hope that our comprehensive services will be assets to Iowa's Muslim community and the Iowa community at large." Founded in 1992, the Muslim American Society has 60 chapters in 35 states. Elmasry said some of the Muslim American Society's objectives are to promote an understanding between Muslims a nd non-Muslims, to encourage a virtuous and moral society, to offer alternatives to many of society's prevailing problems, and to promote human values and family values. Cedar Rapids Mayor Kay Halloran spoke at the ceremony to welcome the organization to Cedar Rapids. "I want everyone to know how happy I am this organization has chosen Cedar Rapids as its home," she said during the ceremony. "We are honored and delighted to have you with us." Souheil Ghannouchi of Washington, D.C., executive director of the national group, said even though the Muslim community is expanding, it is being challenged by society because of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. "We understand it's partly our fault because we didn't reach out before," Ghannouchi said. "We have been a very isolated community so the majority of people don't know us. When they know more about us, they'll hopefully know that the wrong information about us has been circulating." Ghannouchi said he hopes the organization will help the Muslim community reach out and create friendships throughout the Cedar Rapids area. Imam Mahdi Bray of Washington, D.C., executive director of the organization's Freedom Foundation, spoke at the ceremony about the group's responsibilities to the community. "We want to join the city to h elp prevent youth problems such as drug addictions and teen pregnancy," he said. "We have a responsibility of providing subsidy for people who have fallen from their safety net."
