Islamist Abukar Arman Exposed, Cries Islamophobia
The self-professed terrorist sympathizer is mad he has been exposed. The man is Abukar Arman. I posted about him July 13th. He was appointed to a panel that oversees the Ohio Homeland Security Department.
Have a tissue handy as he discusses his feelings.
As a beneficiary of the climate of hysteria and suspicion resulting from those heinous acts of terrorism that shock the world on 9/11, pseudo news outlets such as Front Page Magazine has been raised to prominence in certain Islamophobic circles.
They persistently preached their politics of hate in order to sustain what could only be described as the worst foreign policy initiative undertaken by the United States of America- the Iraq war and a never-ending military quest to conquer a deadly mirage known as “global war on terror.”
To keep this “overblown threat” ubiquitously alarming, any effort to rationally put the security threat in its appropriate perspective or to build a bridge of understanding between Islam and the West must be viewed as outright dangerous or dubious at best.
Unlike the Middle East Forum which is operated by Daniel Pipes, a man many regard as the Islamophobe par excellence, Front Page Magazine, founded by David Horowitz, a man who is no stranger to controversy, does not pretend to foster any analytical objectivity when it comes to Muslims and Islam.
In his own description, his on-line magazine is dedicated to fighting one particular brand of terrorism; you guessed it, “Islamic terrorism.”
However, both Horowitz and Pipes are considered as “experts” in a network of Islamophobes made of individuals, think tanks, lobby and media groups whose primary goal is to marginalize Muslims and kick these “Little Green Footballs (LGFs)” out of the orbit of influence. [LGF is also the most popular website that the network has]
Coincidently, in a span of less than a month, Front Page Magazine has dedicated three or so articles aimed to smear this writer and activist’s name along with other Muslims of good community standing. All three vicious diatribes were authored by the same man, Patrick Poole- an obscure character who apparently specializes in maligning Muslims and Islamic organizations.
And in the hyperbolic nature of his argument and paranoia-driven logic that he employs, Poole sounds as someone inspired by Paul Sperry’s propaganda book ‘Infiltration’ in which he claims that the LGFs have been infiltrating their way up to the White House and that it is incumbent upon the good guys to stop them.
Whatever the case may be, this Front Page hit-man has unleashed a barrage of disinformation, half-truths, and innuendoes that implicates many Muslims whose only crime seem to be that they hold a different opinion of the Israeli/ Palestinian issue.
