5 Steps to Indoctrination

LGF has a comprehensive list of posts on the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) and the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) - propaganda organs for indoctrinating Islamic thought.

I know that last bit sounds biased but that's because it is. And since I lived through it, received emails from both organizations and went to their events and even acted on behalf of CAIR-Can, I think I've got a good grip on how it works.

The Quran has enough references in it for segregating Muslims from the rest of this culture. Knowing a little about how cults attract adherents.

The first step is the attraction of a charismatic leader to 'explain' Islam with a Western sensibility so it makes sense (much in the Hadith and Quran does not make sense if it’s compared to our human rights codes).

Second, is to isolate the person, group, and then community from the outside. The outside being non-Muslims because those Muslims are told to fear loosing their religion from the kafr (unbelievers) as they are all homosexual, adulterous or take drugs, alcohol etc.

The next step is to feed them misinformation or biased information that is out of context and provides no rebuttal or opposing viewpoint - this is propaganda.

The fourth step is groupthink and giving ideas amplification. 'Muslims are persecuted' is a good one. Some of these concerns are valid. But when it is mixed with the concept of one Islamic Nation (Ulema) then anything becomes an offense to Islam and Muslims.

Lastly, outward projection. Everyone hates Muslims so we have to engage in Jihad. Jihad is not just with weapons, but also with words. This is where LGF's posts come in. Reducing the level of free speech, dissent and criticism against Islam is, UnIslamic.


Not even a Muslim can criticize it, so instead of facing the psychological effects of doing so, they instead turn to being "good Muslims" and not criticize anything or anyone Islamic or Muslim. You are not a good Muslim and therefore you do not love Allah. And if you don't love Allah that means you must not believe in the Quran. If you don't believe then you are a kafr. And since you are a kafr... you must be an enemy of Islam.

Those enemies within the unwritten Muslim community definition from informal conversations although some of it is propagandized in emails, are Jews, America, The West, homosexuals, non-Muslim women, our laws, our security agencies, our police forces etc. etc. etc. So instead of criticizing fellow Muslims and Islam itself, 'practicing Muslims' will berate others as waste and therefore enemies. All this is done within the confines of the community.

If the community starts to fight amongst itself, they will blame America and The West for "dividing and conquering" instead of allowing the differences of human nature and varying opinions to flourish.

I've heard the CIA blamed for almost everything that is wrong with the Muslim community and everything outside of it. CSIS agents are liars and persecuting them. I've listened to Maha el Samnah Khadr when I met her in 2000 tell me (and the other women that were at the fundraising event) that CSIS and the Canadian Border Service Agency were wrong when they thought her & her husband were terrorists.

Well...they happen to be part of al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden's close network...Maha and her daughter have been interviewed by the CBC in the documentary called 'Al Qaeda Family'

Most of the transcript is documented on that link but I copied the airing of it and went through the part where the daughter, Zainab, wished she had the guts to blow herself up, which I don't believe was transcribed on the CBC website version.

TC = Terrence McKenna, CBC Interviewer
M = Maha el Samnah Khadr
Z = Zainab Khadr

Transcript:

TC: "Mother and sister are not personally in favour of suicide bombing but that they admire those willing to do it"

Z: "I mean we really respect those people. Not respect, though I think. That must be a really brave person to be able to know I'm going to die."

M: "No not die, to blow-up"

Z: "Yeah. I mean he's not in a battle and he gets killed. The minute I press this button or the minute I hit that building, I'm dead and I know and I'm doing it."

Z: "Very brave. He must be very very very brave"

Z: "I don't have the guts to do that yet"

M: "They must have so much pain [in] order to get to that point"
