More of the same thing that got us into this mess, stat! I’ll reverse the order in which McCarthy presents this; as he says, prepare to be infuriated.

ISNA (the Islamic Society of North America) was identified by the Justice Department at the Holy Land Foundation terrorism financing conspiracy trial as an unindicted co-conspirator. The defendants at that trial were convicted of funding Hamas to the tune of millions of dollars. This should have come as no surprise. ISNA is the Muslim Brotherhood’s umbrella entity for Islamist organizations in the United States. It was established in 1981 to enable Muslims in North America “to adopt Islam as a complete way of life” — i.e., to further the Brotherhood’s strategy of establishing enclaves in the West that are governed by sharia. As I detailed in an essay for the April 20 edition of NR, the Brotherhood’s rally-cry remains, to this day, “Allah is our objective. The Prophet is our leader. The Koran is our law. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.” The Brotherhood’s spiritual guide, Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, who issued a fatwa in 2004 calling for attacks on American forces in Afghanistan, openly declares that Islam will “conquer America” and “conquer Europe.”

Also established in 1981, the IIIT (the International Institute of Islamic Thought) is a Saudi funded think-tank dedicated, it says, to the “Islamicization of knowledge” — which, Zeyno Baran (in Volume 6 of the Hudson Institute’s excellent series, “Current Trends in Islamist Ideology”) has aptly observed, “could be a euphemism for the rewriting of history to support Islamist narratives.” Years ago, the Saudis convinced the United States that the IIIT should be the military’s go-to authority on Islam. One result was the placement of Abdurrahman Alamoudi to select Muslim chaplains for the armed forces. Alamoudi has since been convicted of terrorism and sentenced to 23 years in federal prison.

Infuriated yet? Wondering how it ties in to Fort Hood? Well, gird your loins, infidel:

It’s been brought to my attention by several reliable sources that the Defense Department has brought Louay Safi to Fort Hood as an instructor, and that he has been lecturing on Islam to our troops in Fort Hood who are about to deploy to Afghanistan. Safi is a top official of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), and served as research director at the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT).

…What on earth is this government doing, and will Congress please do something about it?

This government is of course promoting the insipid and dangerous Holy Writ of political correctness at all costs, up to and including American lives. And Congress will do no more and no less than it’s done all along: cheerleading the blockhead PC insanity and relentlessly guarding the sanctity of Teh Narrative; expressing shock and horror when the next inevitable jihadist massacre occurs; and averting its eyes from the real root cause, while blathering about some made-up “pre-PTSD”-style rationalization so as to ensure the liberal mantra remains intact and ready for its next roll-out: MORE OF THE SAME — STAT!
