has a keen interest in Islamic culture and faith and has shown capacity

Political
Islam is not dead, contrary to the overconfident predictions of those
who not too long ago were denying its very existence and claiming that
the Muslim Brotherhood was, in James Clapper's words, "largely secular,"
or at least "moderate." "Egyptian Salafist Nour Party to 'protect
Islamic identity' in new constitution,"...

Whether
or not Mohamud is sincere in his remorse, his declarations here give
the lie to his defense team's claims that he was entrapped by the FBI.

The
Times calls the jizya "a seventh-century tax." That is broadly true,
but they're following the standard dhimmi journalistic practice of
exonerating Islam from every crime and atrocity done in its name. In

And
failing: "Sometimes during Friday prayers, the sheikh wants to push
people to support the Muslim Brotherhood, but modern Muslims are
dominant and not deceived anymore with fake words that defending the
Muslim Brotherhood is defending Islam." "Muslim Brotherhood's bid to

"The
committee opted to change Article 6 to impose an outright ban on the
formation of political parties based on religion or on mixing religion
with politics." So while judges in U.S. courts keep striking down
