THE WAR 'AGAINST FORMER TERRORISTS' HEATS UP
For scheduling with spokesperson, Walid Shoebat,
please contact Rod Mitchell: 281-350-5506
Numerous media outlets, with the aid of CAIR (Council for American Islamic
Relations) are focusing on discrediting former terrorists Walid Shoebat, Kamal
Saleem and Zak Anani, and ignored their message to cadets at the U.S. Air Force
Academy in Colorado Springs, CO on Wednesday, Feb. 6th. CAIR's campaign against the
three men has been ongoing since they first began speaking out against
Fundamentalist Islam. After unsuccessfully challenging the men's message, they now
attack their [well-established] identity and credentials.
"We have all been told that Islam has been hijacked by extremists,” said Walid
Shoebat. "Yet CAIR, who professes to be ‘Moderate Muslims’ are the Three Ex
Terrorists biggest critics, and pull out all stops to try and keep out voices from
being heard. I beg to ask the question; if CAIR is indeed moderate as they claim,
then WHY are they not supporting our campaign against 'extremists? If they are
sincerely against the Fundamentalist Muslim agenda why do they appose us?"
According to the Air Force Academy's public affairs director, Major Bret Ashworth,
CAIR spokesman, Ibrahim Hooper, contacted his office numerous times criticizing the
scheduling of the three men, and requesting an opportunity to have a CAIR
representative share with cadets information about the Islamic faith. Major
Ashworth informed Hooper that the event was not about religion, but about terrorism,
and he denied CAIR's request.
The speakers admit to being Fundamentalist Muslims in their past, which led them to
becoming terrorists, and it is true that each of them have converted to
Christianity, but they do not witness their faith at non-religious events. Numerous
media outlets (New York Times, the Associated Press, The Colorado Springs Gazette,
the Rocky Mountain News) did not report on their message, but instead focused on
the [inaccurate] media statements distributed by CAIR.
Each of the men can document their stories and identities. Shoebat has spoken at more
than 50 events, including many prestigious organizations and venues. He has also
addressed audiences at numerous government agencies, who always scrutinize his
credentials and background, and they have cleared him each and every time. He has
spoken at the National Constitution Center, Columbia, Stanford and Harvard
universities, the Department of Homeland Security, and the FBI Academy, to name
only a few. The advisory board of the Walid Shoebat Foundation is comprised of
Generals and other senior officers from the U.S. Military.
These three brave men are trying to save America and the free world by alerting the
public to the Fundamentalist Islamic mind set, and warning us of the dangers.
Liberals and even some conservatives reject them and try to undermine their
messages, and they rarely inquire or try to understand the issues about which they
speak.

Walid Shoebat is the author of two best selling books “Why I Left Jihad” and “Why
We Want to Kill You” More info can be found at: www.shoebat.com and
