A group committed to establishing an international Islamic empire and reportedly linked to Al Qaeda is stepping up its Western recruitment efforts by holding its first official conference in the U.S.
Hizb ut-Tahrir is a global Sunni network with reported ties to confessed 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and Al Qaeda in Iraq's onetime leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. It has operated discreetly in the U.S. for decades.
Now, it is coming out of the shadows and openly hosting a July 19 conference entitled, "The Fall of Capitalism and the Rise of Islam," at a posh Hilton hotel in a suburb of Chicago.

Celebrity Guest: Paris Hilton(?) - showcasing a new, hip, lefty high fashion line of Burkas - sure to be a hit with Hollywood's leftist elite - the celebrity red carpets will never be the same.
On a more serious note - where is the leadership against Jihad - certainly not coming from the White House.
We have a long 4 years ahead of us - lets just hope we can survive it!

Not: "The Fall of Christianity and the Rise of Islam".
Nor: "The Fall of Secularism and the Rise of Islam"
I suppose in Eastern Europe it's: "The Fall of Communism and the Rise of Islam"
Posted by: pok at July 18, 2009 6:26 AMThe problem is there is no one willing to stop this conference. Too attached to your couches?
Posted by: Aaron at July 18, 2009 8:03 AMA stalwart faith in our own Christian values (and precepts) is essential, even if it means support from secularists. Take your children to church, don't just send them. Many are become empty little vessels; there is a vacuum here, for evil to fill.
We beat them back from the doors of Vienna, we'll do it again.
larry, you do know how bad things were before beating them back from vienna. if we wait that long 100's of millions will have to die.
Posted by: old white guy at July 18, 2009 9:07 AMToo bad that's tomorrow, because I'd be there - even by myself - to protest.
Wonder where Dawkins and other notorious atheists will be? Certainly not questioning the blatant and open celebration of the supposed rise of an Islamic theocracy. There's still Christians out there, after all.
Posted by: Amy P. at July 18, 2009 9:52 AMOf course it is in Chicago, that is where the chief muslim of the US comes from.
Posted by: Pissedoff at July 18, 2009 10:15 AMDon't you mean BO's kind of town, Chicago?
After all, the current president of the US is equally skilled in the rhetorics of misinformation, manipulation using the emotions of fear and hope, and accusations of bias if you question his supreme authority.
Posted by: ET at July 18, 2009 10:38 AMold white guy, you are correct. It could have just as easy gone the other way. Too bad the Byzantines lost the Battle of Manzikert in 1071.
The Chinese may have something to say about this in the future.

Posted by: Canadian Sentinel at July 18, 2009 11:48 AMI see, from the Heritage Foundation link that these Islamic supremacists have their philosophical roots in the rabid anti-Semitism of the Nazi-collaborator Haj Amin Al-Husseini.
Therefore there is a link to the Nazis, to Hitler, ideologically, as well as to Islam.
Posted by: Canadian Sentinel at July 18, 2009 12:08 PMI wonder if Graham Nash will write a song for the event?
The lyrics for his song "Chicago" are frighteningly appropriate.
Posted by: dp at July 18, 2009 12:53 PMregarding:
"The Fall of Capitalism and the Rise of Islam,"
Capitalism may fall, but that does not mean Islam will rise.
In fact, when Islam is no longer useful to the Communists, it's going to face a rapid and violent demise.
Well, it's not all bad. When radical Islam gains the upper hand we can look forward to seeing
the more degenerate of our colleagues have their heads cut off. We may even be able to help!
And hey! sharia is the sovereign cure for radical feminism!
Aint it amazing how these Yabbos suddenly feel comfortable about slithering out of the shadows now that Barack Hussein Obama is the one who decides if they get prosecuted or not.
Things that make Ya go, Hmmmmmm
Posted by: zilla at July 18, 2009 4:39 PMAll I know is that these orginizations have been effective in anti-Jewish spin. Are part of the world wide Jihadist movement & want Israel destroyed. Jews persecuted world wide first. Us next.
Some of it goes back to Egyptian sources (escaped Nazis)with Syrian backing. Some good digging there Canadian sentinel.
