Crosstalk: November 17, 2015

Jim opened this edition of Crosstalk by reporting that last July a French speaking ISIS terrorist threatened to fill the streets of Paris with dead bodies. The graphic video featured a terrorist shooting a man identified as a captured Syrian soldier at close range and throwing his body off a cliff. Before the execution, the masked terrorist declared that ISIS loves death like you love life and urged supporters in France to carry out more terror attacks. He directed his threat not only at French citizens, but at everyone who fights Allah and his prophet. As many readers know, the initial threat was carried out and attacks took place in Paris. At least 129 people are dead with another 352 injured. Interestingly, the morning before the attack, President Obama had just proclaimed that ISIS had been contained in Iraq and Syria. Joining Jim to discuss this issue was Usama Dakdok. Usama is the director of the Straightway of Grace Ministry. Usama was born in Egypt where he was schooled in Islamic Law. Usama has translated the Qur'an into English to expose what the Qur'an really teaches. Usama is the host of the VCY America Network radio program, Revealing the Truth About Islam. Usama believes the West has yet to acknowledge the truth about Islam because of our ignorance regarding the truth about the word of Allah and the truth of the teaching of Mohammed and the Hadith. Therefore, we are literally digging our own graves with the stupidity of our own political correctness. Usama quoted from the word of Allah and the teachings of Mohammed to show that Islam is bent on the destruction of all non-Muslims not willing to accept Islam. He also debunked the notion that numerous jihadi verses of destruction are really defense verses. This shows how ISIS is 100% pure Muslim and the best Muslims you could ever have because their actions match up with their doctrine. There was also discussion concerning Nihad Awad, the executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). According to Usama, CAIR is an Islamic-jihadi, Muslim Brotherhood front group. Due to what we've known since the Holy Land Trial in 1991, Usama believes Awad shouldn't be speaking propaganda to us about the loving and peaceful Islam. Instead, he should be in prison because he's the head of CAIR. In addition, Usama noted that this is the same man who wanted to see Shariah Law practiced in Florida, Alabama and Oklahoma. In light of all this, how did President Obama respond to the attacks in Paris? He released or transferred at least 5 more Guantanamo Bay detainees from the prison in Cuba to the United Arab Emirates. These men have been held for close to 14 years because of the threat of terrorism in the U.S.
