De Paul Dawa
By George M Weinert V
Wednesday, September 27, 2006 Chicago, IL
The creeping Islamic Dawa at Chicago's De Paul University came to national attention last year with the dismissal of Adjunct Professor Thomas Klocek, a part-time instructor who was fired for the grave offense of 'offending' a tiny group of ever-so-sensitive Muslim students. Knowing this and aware of the hundreds of millions in Petrodollars at stake, the growing Saudi Da'wa at DPU comes as no surprise but the Editorial which masquerades as a news article on Page 2 of the DePaulia student newspaper of September 22, 2006 was a real shock. Coming in the same week that an Islamofascist 'cleric' threatened to behead the Holy Father as Muslim mobs demanded his blood while the fearless Mujahideen of Iraq marked the start of Ramadan by murdering 39 women and children this silly exercise in mental masturbation is an insult.
This scholar can no longer be silent since I am a De Paul University alumnus - School of Music, 1976. I also attended De Paul Academy (Until it was closed in 1967) as did my late father (who was a classmate of Reverend John Cortelu - the guiding force behind the phenomenal growth of DPU) in the 1930's as well and frequent both the Lewis Center and the Lincoln Park John T. Richardson libraries, read the De Paulia (the student newspaper) and get to observe what is really going on at my old "Catholic" Alma Mater.
Author Michelle Stoffel uses this deceptively inclusive piece of propaganda to repeatedly praise the efforts of UMMA - United Muslims Moving Ahead, the Islamic Society of North America and the ubiquitous Muslim Student Association
While the St. Vincent De Paul Society does not seem terribly popular at De Paul's Lincoln Park campus lately the Muslim Student Association [www.msa-natl.org/]has been everywhere and a brief search at David Horrowitz's http://discoverthenetworks.org/ reveals some disturbing facts:
What is the real nature of the Muslim Students' Association of
the U.S. and Canada (MSA)? This octopus-like entity has
infiltrated numerous college and university campuses in North
America, and has taken the lead in corralling young Muslims to
defend the fascist dictator Saddam Hussein. According to MSA,
the correct position for Muslims in America involves their
marching alongside neofascists and Stalinists, with the
legions of "useful fools" who flock to bogus "peace"
demonstrations.
When its leaders speak to mainstream media, MSA presents
itself as a campus-service organization not much different
from other collegiate faith groups. But the reality is very
different, and deeply sinister. MSA is a key element in the
Wahhabi lobby, and a cornerstone of the conspiracy by
Saudi-backed extremists to control American Islam, as well the
public discourse about Islam in America.
Above all, MSA now seeks to present itself as moderate and
opposed to terrorism, even though its chapters have
distributed the propaganda of Osama bin Laden on its websites,
along with publicity-recruiting campaigns for Wahhabi
subversion of the Chechen struggle in Russia.
To best understand the MSA and its history one should turn to
the work of Hamid Algar, a Western Muslim scholar of
impeccable academic credentials, who also happens to be a
ferocious critic of the U.S. and Israel. Algar, a member of
the University of California-Berkeley faculty, is the
biographer of Ayatollah Khomeini and among the leading
historians of Islamic spirituality alive today.
But although he is no friend of President Bush or Ariel
Sharon, Algar has described with stunning accuracy the nature
of the MSA. In his brief work Wahhabism: A Critical Essay,
published in 2002, he writes: "Some Muslim student
organizations have... functioned at times as Saudi-supported
channels for the propagation of Wahhabism abroad, especially
in the United States. The Muslim Student Association of the
U.S. and Canada was established in 1963, one year after the
Muslim World League [MWL] with which it had close links." Let
us note here that the MWL was established by the Saudi regime
as an extremist Islamic equivalent of the old Communist
International or Comintern, and that its cadres included
numerous Islamist "revolutionaries" from the Egyptian Muslim
Brotherhood and from Pakistan.
Algar continues, "Particularly in the 1960s and 1970s, no
criticism of Saudi Arabia would be tolerated at the annual
conventions of the MSA... Its numerous local chapters would make
available at every Friday prayer large stacks of the [MWL]'s
publications, in both English and Arabic... Although the MSA
progressively diversified its connections with Arab states,
official approval of Wahhabism remained strong." Algar notes
that in 1980 the organization published a translation, which
was actually a text puffed up to give it more substance, of
writings by Ibn Abd al-Wahhab, the 18th century founder of the
dispensation named for him, which is presently the state sect
in the Saudi kingdom.
With some sarcasm, Algar points out "it might appear at first
sight puzzling that students pursuing a higher education
should be attracted to a Wahhabi reading of Islam... they found
in Wahhabism a 'rationalized' Islam, stripped of the niceties
and ambiguities of juristic reasoning, the complexities of
theology, and the subtleties of Sufism" [Islamic
spirituality]. He calls attention to MSA's role in the
creation of the Islamic Society of North America, or ISNA,
which is best described as a branch of the Saudi religious
militia operating to impose Wahhabi conformity on all of
American Islam.
In addition, the MSA has strong ties with the World Assembly
of Muslim Youth (WAMY), established in 1972 and directed from
the Saudi capital, Riyadh. WAMY's U.S. offices in Northern
Virginia have been a central target of the federal
investigation of terrorist funding and money laundering by
Islamist groups following the horrors of September 11th.
The foremost aim of the Wahhabis is always to impose a single
voice on Muslims. Right now, this means projecting the image,
in U.S. media as well as on campuses, that all right-thinking
Muslim believers consider an attack on Saddam and his regime
to be aggression against Islam. This is a lie. Thousands of
Iraqi Shias, Kurds, and other Muslims in the U.S. support the
Bush project for the liberation of Iraq from the fascist
regime, and for the broader liberation of Islamic societies
from the grip of tyranny and terrorism, leading to a new epoch
of democracy, prosperity, and stability. 1
De Paul is now and always has been a traditionally conservative school and proud that it was not considered in the same class as the dope-smoking hippies at the University of Chicago, University of Illinois at Circle or Northwestern University in Evanston. In the years I attended (1970-1976) the School of Music was downtown at the Lewis Center, a primarily commuter campus that was extremely conservative and oriented towards the business community which made it a far cry from the 'academic' lunacy transpiring at other colleges and universities in the early 1970's. It seems that things have changed quite a bit in the last three decades when we see Islamic organizations with ties to Islamofascist Terror groups at the nation's Number One Catholic University:
The Muslim Student Association is a Pro-Terror Organization
by Ben Johnson
MSA members at UCLA raised money for Hamas and Hezbollah
terrorists at their annual "Anti-Zionist Week."
Speaker Muammad Faheed told an MSA meeting at Queensborough
Community College in New York, "The only relationship you
should have with America is to topple it!"
Nihad Awad addressed the 2003 Iowa Muslim Student
Association Annual Conferences. Awad had told a college
audience in 1994, "I am a supporter of the Hamas movement."
The University of Southern California MSA invited Taliban
ambassador Sayyid Hashimi to speak on campus six months
before 9/11.
MSA at California State University Northridge held a
fundraiser for Islamic Relief, an organization that received
a $50,000 contribution from a front group run by Osama bin
Laden.
Dr. Abdulrahman Hijazi on James Madison University's MSA
2002 "Jihad" panel, giving a speech on "The Islamic Peace
Process and the Goals of Jihad." He once extolled a
terrorist "martyr" whose "hope of having the mercy of
Allah...by one of the greatest good deeds, which is jihad, was
more attractive to him than by being happy with his wife at
home."
University of Idaho MSA President Sami Omar Al-Hussayen, was
ordered deported for working for a radical Muslim charity
with ties to terror. While on campus, he had sought access
to a chemical lab containing nuclear material.
Last October, the University of Pennsylvania MSA sponsored
"Rev." Bill Baker, the onetime chairman of the neo-Nazi
Populist Party, a fact the local MSA president dubbed
"irrelevant." 2.
MSA is connected with the ultra-liberal group ANSWER and also has ties to the Workers of the World who are strong proponents of Communist ideologies. Chicago's labor movement still hosts a smattering of old time WOOBLIES (Illinois Workers of the World) party members and we used to frequent one of their meeting halls near Fullerton and Halsted in the late 1970's since it was a great place to pick up promiscuous hippie gals and often hosted ad-hoc 60's style folk music when Orphan's was a major Chicago entertainment venue. Incredibly there are still many of them wandering about the city and it's not unusual to hear the praises of Marx and Engels. If the reader does not see the connection, you are invited to investigate the ties between the Islamofascists of Palestinian, Syria, Iraq and Iran to the old USSR and the KGB tactics still in common use today. It's all as anti-American as you can get.
De Paul University is the NUMBER ONE Catholic University in the country and ir ranked seventh nation wide. Two and half years ago there was a lot of talk on campus since a new "Islamic Studies" major had been instituted. Bear in mind that De Paul University, founded by the Vincentian Brothers has traditionally been a haven of Catholic ideals, philosophy and the great academic tradition of the Catholic Teaching Orders. (and a great rival of the Jesuits at Loyola) During the summer of 2002 at the Lincoln Park Campus, the "Palestinians" (Arabs or whatever else they really are) began to make themselves quite visible. At one of their first demonstrations (where they actually had a stuffed camel rented and set up in the quad on campus right outside the Richardson Library) they were badly outnumbered by Israeli students proudly displaying the Star of David and Israeli flags and their supporters by a margin of about 30-1 - they obviously remembered this shame, and like any good Arab planned their revenge and have a lot of help from the
Islamic Society of North America (ISNA)
[www.isna.net]
ISNA enforces Wahhabi theological writ in the country's 1,200
officially recognized mosques (out of a possible total of
4,000, including unrecognized and small congregations). Former
ISNA president Muzammil Siddiqi, described by many of his
critics as a power-hungry fanatic, appeared in an official
ceremony at the National Cathedral in Washington directly
following September 11th. But some 10 months before then, on
October 28, 2000, Siddiqi asserted, 'America has to learnÉ if
you remain on the side of injustice, the wrath of God will
come. Please, all Americans. Do you remember that?É If you
continue doing injustice, and tolerate injustice, the wrath of
God will come.'
Many of the main mosques in the U.S. were recently built with
Saudi money and saddled with a requirement that they follow
Wahhabi imams and Wahhabi dictates. But Wahhabi domination of
American Islam involves much more than control over money and
the elected governing assemblies of mosques; it also means
dictating the curriculum for the training of imams, setting
the tone and content of sermons, deciding what books and
periodicals may be read in mosque libraries or sold in mosque
bookshops, and excluding or otherwise suppressing dissenters.
According to one informant who requested anonymity, Wahhabi
imams in American mosques until recently received salaries of
between $2,000 and $4,000 a month from the Gulf states.
Testimony to this effect comes from (among many others) Kaukab
Siddique, the radical editor of New Trend, an Islamic
periodical of extremist views yet opposed to Wahhabi
domination of American Islam, who charged: 'ISNA controls most
mosques in America and thus also controls: 1. Who will speak
at EVERY [Friday prayer]. 2. Which literature will be
distributed thereÉ New Trend tried right from 1977 to warn the
people about this danger of monopoly created by funds coming
in from Saudi Arabia... the Ikhwan mafia, a group of sixÉ were
bringing in funds from Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states. The
movement for reform was quashed by the mafia (who are the
revered 'elders' of ISNA) who went from city to city.'
Islamic Horizons, based in Plainfield, Indiana, is the
bimonthly organ of ISNA. Its web page includes the pathetic
claim, 'Access DENIED . . . Muslim Americans Must Demand
Inclusion in the Political Process,' which complains of
insufficient support from George W. Bush after Muslims voted
for him. The site also promotes Silent No More: Confronting
America's False Images of Islam, a wretched book by
professional Israel-basher Paul Findley, a former Republican
congressman from Illinois. Findley's book came out in the
summer of 2001, which did not prove a propitious moment for a
work that gushes over Osama bin Laden. Findley wrote,
'Outsiders do not seem to recognize that bin Laden is one of
the pre-eminent heroes of Afghans, occupying a role similar to
the Marquis de Lafayette, a Frenchman who fought at the side
of the Colonials during America's Revolutionary War.'
A neofascist agitator, Bill Baker, has also been a fixture in
the activities of ISNA. His book, More In Common Than You
Think, intended to bring together fringe Christians and
extremist Muslims, was endorsed as follows by Muzammil
Siddiqi: 'We Muslims and Christians together make up more than
half of the world population today. Better understanding,
communication, and peaceful relations between our communities
are not only good, but they are essential. We have much more
in common than you think or accept.' Baker has been a guest on
'Radio Free America,' a program backed by fascist agitator
Willis Carto. In the case of Baker and Siddiqi, the most
significant common element is corrosive hatred of U.S.
policies.
Involvement with ISNA should be avoided by sincere interfaith
activists, although its annual national convention may be a
useful place for independent, traditional, antiterrorist
Muslims to seek contacts. In the past, however, as New Trend's
Siddique emphasized, 'these well-funded groups [would] not
allow any Islamic material other than their own to be
distributed.' 4
The Muslim invasion of De Paul became apparent during the summer of 2003 when a Pro-Arab group had a large placard mounted outside of the Schmidt Academic Center (known simply as SAC) featuring an article from the Chicago Tribune that sang the praises of some female Muslim "Doctor" and her renowned Islamic writings. (which is not really saying too much since any Muslim who CAN ACTUALLY READ AND WRITE is considered a 'scholar') There had been reports of De Paul adopting an "Islamic Studies' major in the papers and I recall joking with a fellow teacher (also from the Music School that is now on the LPC Campus) outside of the library that this 'degree' would be about as useful as my own which is in Music Composition. I didn't think much of it, but noticed a considerable increase in the number of books on Islam and the Holy Qur'ran in the stacks of the Richardson Library The Muslims doubtless believe that the historic Greco-Roman Architecture of St. Vincent's Church with its twin steeples will make a great mosque with built-in minarets and their intent is obvious. De Paul's Muslims are waging JIHAD - in Arabic- Al-Jihad bi-al-Lisan - which means - Jihad of the Tongue and I witnessed an example of a non-veiled Muslim gal in the Schmidt Academic Center explaining the Ramadan fast to a group of naive young victims just last week. The DePaulia propaganda of September 22, 2006 is an example of al-Jihad bi-al-Qalam - Jihad of the Pen. Both combine preaching and writing enable by Jihad Al-Jihad bi-al-Mal - the Financial Jihad in this case made possible by the influx of Muslim tuition dollars (and more?) into the always willing bank account of American universities.
The politically correct pedagogy of ignorance employed by these killers in training and their defenders is surely a far cry from what Father Hinni (the former chaplain of De Paul who taught this student Theology in 1966 and 1967) used to tell us about Jesus, St. Vincent and his life long concern for the poor in the old academy building at Kenmore and Webster right next to St. Vincent's Church and indeed anathema to the marvelous academic tradition of the Vincentian Order. Mayor Richard J Daley and the late Mayor (The BOSS) are also both DPU alumni (and Roman Catholic) as are many of Chicago's leading citizens so I'd like to know how they view this Islamofascism at one of the finest universities in Chicago and the nation. I've noticed that the Muslim chicks have largely abandoned their head scarves and the male silk pajamas that are seen so often in Uptown and Rogers Park are nowhere to be found in ultra-hip Lincoln Park so the Windy City umma al-Islamiyya have to rely on blending in and a seeming show of piety to demonstrate sufficient Hojat al-Islam wa al-Moslemeen. 5 It's wonderful that the hayateen 6 have morphed into such dedicated young scholars but their true motives are questionable at best. This Muslim dharura 7 appears to be using America's openness as istid'af 8 in order to establish salah under the penumbra of liberal diversity and coupled with Islamic rejection of WTC culpability, Holocaust denials and the popularity of the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" raises very serious concerns and all American Kafirs 10 and De Paul University graduates should pay close attention.
De Paul University is fast becoming a mirror of Euroarabia and England, as the Islamofacsits are waging a subtle Jihad designed to obfuscate the UGLY TRUTH OF ISLAM and this widespread Taqiyya * is hiding their atavistic and violent philosophies and satanic ideology of ignorance and hate. They'll continue to get away with it too since even the Sisters of Charity require Mercy Housing residents to bow down to the Pedophile Profiteer Mohammed and forbid any serious discussion of the creeping Islamofascism that is forcing true Dhimmi status on America, 11
By the way - when the St. Vincent De Paul Society and their volunteers feed the North Side Homeless breakfast each morning at 8:30 AM in the back of St. Vincent's Church and when Brother Leo passes out MacDonald's coupons books to the indigent on the back stairs of the parish rectory - where are the ISLAMIC CHARITIES and where are these Muslims?
