Subject: A compliment from our opposition!

Visit our News page Visit us on Facebook and give us your feedback on Wajahat Ali's comments! A grudging compliment from our opposition Dear Lee, On August 15th, the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) held what it called on its website a national town hall-style conference call on "The Real World Impact of Hate Rhetoric in America…" One of the presenters on the telephone town hall was Wajahat Ali, one of the co-authors of a so-called "report" put out by the far left, George Soros-funded Center for American Progress, entitled "Fear, Inc.: The Roots of the Islamophobia Network in America." Towards the end of the hour-long call, Ali recommended eleven action items to combat what he calls "Islamophobia" in America. What he said in 23 seconds about ACT! for America was illuminating. Click here or the image below: We disagree with Ali's characterization that ACT! for America is an "anti-Muslim group," given our support for Muslim leaders and organizations that include people like Dr. Tawfik Hamid, Manda Ervin, and Dr. Zuhdi Jasser. But we appreciate his acknowledgment of our success! Ali's remarks echo what is contained in the "Fear, Inc." document, which devotes five pages to ACT! for America. Most of the five pages contain the typical propaganda and name-calling that groups such as CAIR and its enablers like the Center for American Progress engage in. But tucked away in those five pages are these statements: But what makes Gabriel's organization unique is the sophistication with which it has applied its organizing goals. Gabriel's relationship with lawmakers is pivotal to her group's success. This dedication to cause over embracing the limelight speaks to the serious nature of ACT!. When even our opponents grudgingly concede that we are successful, and why we are successful, none of us in ACT! for America should have any doubts that we are effectively pushing back against the threat of radical Islam. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Make sure you receive all of your messages from ACT for America.
