Green Goes Green - Islamoecology - Islamists Are Jumping On The Enviornmentalist Bandwagen

October 20, 2014

MIM: Islamists have jumped on the ecology bandwagen and are holding and participating in events worldwide. The 'liberal facism' and 'totalitarian progressivism' which characterizes the 'Green Movement' explains why many Islamist Muslims are members or leaders of Green parties worldwide and epitomizes the Red-Green alliance.

The co chairs of the International Committee of the Green Party of the United States are Bahram Zandi (from Iran) and Fareen Hakeem (a hijabi who ran for State Senate). The head of the Green Party in Florida is Muhammed Malik,the former executive director of CAIR South Florida. http://www.gp.org/committees/intl/

The Mission Of The International Committee

"The mission of the Committee shall be to foster collaboration and exchange with Green parties around the world; to facilitate official GPUS representation on the international and global level; to facilitate GPUS issue and policy development on the international and global level; and to network with green organizations and movements working on the international and global level."

MIM: An article in the Green Party's official "Green Paper" explained the similiarities between the Islamist weltaanshaung and that of the Green Party.

The Green Party enjoys broad support in the Muslim-American community

"...In a recent survey by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Muslim respondents were asked which political party best represents the interests of American Muslims. A quarter of those polled identified the Green Party. Many affinities also exist between Greens and Muslim-Americans who don't immediately identify with the Green Party. The Green Party has embraced political positions more consistent with the American Muslim viewpoint on civil liberties, U.S. support for the Israeli occupation of Palestine and the war on Iraq. Among a host of other issues of affinity are gender and environmental justice, not often thought of as Muslim issues in today's prevailing Islamophobic climate..."

"...To what extent do Muslims identify with Green Party candidates and why? To what values, beliefs and ideals do self-identified progressive Muslims and Greens share a common commitment? How can that common commitment be employed and emphasized in our efforts to swell the ranks of the Green Party with members of the Muslim-American community?

To learn more about the discussion and about the political diversity of the Muslim-American community and its activist organizations, look for the upcoming report from the Green Crescent Initiative, to be published in late December. A copy of the full report will be posted on the GPAC website: http://www.cagreens.org/alameda/county/. .."

In a 2014 press release the Green Party's virulent anti semitism and hatred for Israel was clear.

"..The Green Party of the US has called for boycott, divestment, and sanctions against Israel until it complies with international law and UN directives, ends the occupation of Palestinian lands, and observes full and equal human rights for Palestinians, including the right of return..."

MIM: On September 21st CAIR joined with other radical Islamist organisations and individuals to take part in the "Climate March" in New York City. Below is an account by Jacob Bender the Executive "Dhimmi" of CAIR Philadelphia.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"This past Sunday, Sept. 21, I was privileged to join over 400,000 of my fellow human beings in the largest demonstration in history to warn of the dangers of climate change to future life on earth. I marched with the Muslim contingent, composed of people from CAIR-Philly, CAIR-NY, ICNA, ISNA, Islamic Relief, Majlis Shura of NY, Muslim Consultative Network, Al-Khoei Foundation, Greenfaith, Muslims Giving Back, Muslim Boys Scouts, Arab American Association of NY, MSAs, and MAS.

Dozens of religious groups met on West 58th Street before the March for an inspiring interfaith service, where one of the speakers was Imam Zaid Shakir, the keynote speaker at CAIR-Philly's 2014 Banquet. Watch Imam Zaid's speech: (click on link below).

MIM: The Al Qaeda linked Muslim American Society started a Muslim Green Team project.

Muslim Green Team is a campaign of the Service Corps department of the Muslim American Society (MAS). It began in 2008 in the Bay Area chapter of MAS. MAS believes that living a "greener" lifestyle is not only healthier and socially responsible, but an essential and mandatory component of a Muslim's life.

To this end, MAS Service Corps established Muslim Green Team. It is a comprehensive, grassroots (pun intended!), environmental campaign, promoting environmentally conscious and sustainable practices in all spheres of human activity.
The primary objectives of Muslim Green Team are:

  • To fulfill our duty to Allah (swt) in adopting environmentally friendly practices.
  • To contribute to the increasingly global effort to reverse the effects of environmentally-irresponsible practices.
  • To raise awareness about environmental issues within the Muslim community.
  • To demonstrate the environmental message of Islam.
  • To contribute the unique, Islamic perspective of the environment to the national and global environmental conversation.

MIM: In the UK the Muslim Council of Britain's Affiliate the innocuously named Made in Europe (The MCB is the UK equivalent of CAIR) held an EcoFair at the Regent's Park Mosque which is notorious for their Islamist ties.

An announcement for The Clarion Project's video "Undercover in the Regent's Park Mosque: A Shocking Expose" proclaims that:

"...The mosque holds many interfaith events and hosts famous politicians, but the preaching to men and women when no "infidels" are present tell a very different and shocking story..."http://www.clarionproject.org/videos/undercover-regents-park-mosque-shocking-expose

In an expose entitled "Preachers of Separatism at work inside Britain's mosques" the true face of the Regent's
Park Mosque is revealed:

"In a large balcony above the beautiful main hall at Regent's Park Mosque in London - widely considered the most important mosque in Britain - I am filming undercover as the woman preacher gives her talk.

What should be done to a Muslim who converts to another faith? "We kill him," she says, "kill him, kill, kill…You have to kill him, you understand?"

Adulterers, she says, are to be stoned to death - and as for homosexuals, and women who "make themselves like a man, a woman like a man ... the punishment is kill, kill them, throw them from the highest place".

These punishments, the preacher says, are to be implemented in a future Islamic state. "This is not to tell you to start killing people," she continues. "There must be a Muslim leader, when the Muslim army becomes stronger, when Islam has grown enough."

A young female student from the group interrupts her: the punishment should also be to stone the homosexuals to death, once they have been thrown from a high place.

These are teachings I never expected to hear inside Regent's Park Mosque, which is supposedly committed to interfaith dialogue and moderation, and was set up more than 60 years ago, to represent British Muslims to the Government. And many of those listening were teenage British girls or, even more disturbingly, young children..."

"...The director general of Regent's Park Mosque is Dr Ahmed Al Dubayan, a Saudi diplomat..."
