Why am I not surprised at this? Because when someone speaks in a different language and a majority of the listening audience does not know the language (or the meaning of the “verses” from the Koran), an Islamic Imam can get away with such condemnation unsuspected and undetected until someone with knowledge of what was being said translates it for the public.

Excerpt:
The Saturday prayer service was a modern “interfaith event” which included (as described here, p.11, and seen in this video clip) a recitation by Sajid Tarar, an advisor at Medina Masjid of Baltimore.
He recited the Koran’s very brief first sura, or chapter: the so-called “Fatiha,” or “Opening,” consisting of seven short verses (verses 1-6; verse 7).
As I noted in a tweet shortly after viewing Saturday’s event, regarding verse 7:
“At Natl Cathedral Today ,1/21/17, Koran 1:7, A Curse on Jews, & Rebuke of Christians Recited in Front of Pres Trump.”
This high-profile ecumenical event illustrates starkly the conundrum of mainstream Islamic practice within our free, multi-confessional, but overwhelmingly non-Muslim society. Pious Muslims repeat the Fatiha, including verse 7, up to 17 times per day during their five requisite prayer sessions, and the accompanying “subunits” of prayer (see pp.49-50). While verses 1-6 are confined to Muslims re-affirming their personal devotion to the Islamic creed, and its deity, Allah, verse 7 launches into open condemnation of other faiths — specifically Judaism and Christianity.

Why Were Women Protesters Wearing Hijabs?
Excerpt:
Cheri Berens saw it first hand.
From her vantage point, “The entire coffee shop gasped in disbelief at the vision of American women donning the headscarf.”
Berens is an American who has lived in Cairo for years working as a researcher for the Egyptian Ministry of Culture. She witnessed the violence that preceded the takeover of the country by the radical Muslim Brotherhood and the counter-revolution that removed it from power.
Berens is author of “Cheri’s Memoir: An American Woman Living in Egypt” and is working on her next book, “The Cultural History of Egypt.”
And, in an essay on her blog titled “Women’s March to Islam?” she chronicled how for everyday Egyptians watching on television, packed into “every coffee shop in Cairo that had a satellite dish,” the scenes in the streets of Washington, D.C., were disturbingly familiar.
They recognized the same methods the Muslim Brotherhood used for decades to finally seize control in Egypt playing out in the American capital.
“First we saw protesters smashing windows and torching cars,” wrote Berens.
“Hushed murmuring began around me as every single Egyptian in the coffee shop could be heard saying the words: ‘Muslim Brotherhood.’”
She observed: “The images we were watching could have been taken right from a street in Egypt. It is exactly what we had experienced on a daily basis for more than a year.”
While the violence stunned the Egyptians, it was American women wearing hijabs that evoked agitation and even anger.
“We have been fighting to remove the headscarf. Why are these the stupid women putting them on?” asked an Egyptian woman within earshot of Berens.
Indeed, it is a question many have asked: Why would American women, and even the homosexual community, make common cause with those who would strip them of their rights and civil liberties?
WND put that question to former U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., who once introduced legislation to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization and who observed that the question of why collaboration occurs among disparate causes comes up often.
“People understand Islam abhors homosexuality, yet they often join forces in protests with gay activists,” she told WND. “The answer is simple, Black Lives Matters, the gay agenda, as well as Islamic supremacism, all seek domination over American freedoms.”
Still, why collaborate?
“They cannot reach their aims separately, but they can realize the fall of individual liberties if they work together. Once liberties fall, the groups break with each other in a race to impose their particular views on the American populace,” Bachmann explained.
“Causing liberties to fall is a long-term project, and they will use whatever allies they can get to realize that phase of their goals,” she concluded.
That strategy seemed apparent in what Berens observed.
Berens remarked how no one would ever think of damaging someone’s car or business before 2012, the year the Muslim Brotherhood took power in Egypt.
But after that, “mobs of Muslim brotherhood would ‘protest’ in the streets, ripping apart public and private property and disabling normal activity – just as we were now watching on TV.”
“Some of the ‘protesters’ even covered their faces in the exact same way the Muslim brotherhood do.”
The Muslim Brotherhood organization in America lost its power when BHO left the presidency. I’m sure that they (and the many organizations run by GeorgEVIL Soros) are blisteringly angry! The “women’s” demonstration held on the day after the inauguration was planned months in advance. As a side note, one blogger made a comment that maybe all of these women (or most) had booked their hotel rooms and plane flights, convinced that Hillary Clinton would win the election. Sounds plausible, but who knows for sure?
Anyway, the far leftist ploys being planned will go on and on, in order to try and destroy Trump’s presidency.
As was mentioned in one of the articles, “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” mantra is alive and well when it comes to Islamist influence combining with other leftist causes. Trouble is, history has shown that the taqiyya method of Islamists “partnering” with certain groups that don’t adhere (or agree with) sharia law usually end up battling each other. Just take a look at the horrible damage being done in Germany because of unfettered Islamic immigration. The warring factions in Syria is another example. History has shown (and the experts – like Cherie Berens), have reported accurately on these issues. Americans need to heed her (and other experts) warnings about the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood here in our nation as well as around the world.
