Back the HUAC"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>In the years immediately following World War II, most American were understandably \u00a0concerned about Communist infiltration at the highest levels of the U.S. government.\u00a0 For example, how could anyone forget the photograph taken at the Yalta Conference, February 4-11, 1945, in which Alger Hiss, a deep-cover Soviet agent, was seen leaning over FDR\u2019s shoulder, whispering advice to him as he negotiated with Churchill and Stalin?\u00a0 Hiss served as Roosevelt\u2019s senior advisor on political affairs.<\/p>\n<p>Roosevelt arrived in Yalta carrying copies of the Morgenthau Plan, which advocated that the post-war occupation of <a title=\"Germany\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Germany\">Germany<\/a> include measures to eradicate Germany\u2019s ability to wage war, and to remove or destroy other key industries basic to military strength.\u00a0 The Morgenthau Plan was the brainchild of yet another deep-cover Soviet spy in the highest echelons of the Roosevelt administration, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Harry Dexter White.<\/p>\n<p>But it was not until the Cold War and the US-Soviet arms race became a fact of life that most Americans became fully aware of the dangers of Soviet expansionism and the extent to which Soviet agents had infiltrated the U.S. government.\u00a0 It was then that Congress took steps to facilitate the work of the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), created in 1938, with the passage of the Communist Control Act of 1954, and similar measures.<\/p>\n<p>The HUAC was abolished in 1975, but now, in the early years of the 21<sup>st<\/sup> century, we find ourselves confronted by an enemy every bit as ruthless as the enemies we faced in World War II and the Cold War, but far more numerous. \u00a0If, as some Muslim apologists suggest, only 5 percent of the world\u2019s Muslim population are radicalized, the number of potential airplane hijackers, suicide bombers, and jihadists we face is approximately 70 million.\u00a0 In World War II, the combined military forces of the Germans, Japanese, and Italians numbered only 31.4 million.<\/p>\n<p>A recent article in <i>Investor\u2019s Business Daily,<\/i> describes the recent formation of the United States Council of Muslim Organizations (USCMO).\u00a0 It provides a clear insight into how far Muslim infiltration of the U.S. has advanced.\u00a0 The report tells us that, \u201cWith an eye toward the 2016 election, the radical Muslim Brotherhood has built the framework for a political party in America that seeks to turn Muslims into an Islamist voting bloc.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>IBD cautions, \u201cThis development bears careful monitoring in light of the U.S. Brotherhood\u2019s recently exposed goal of waging a \u2018civilization jihad\u2019 against America that explicitly calls for infiltrating the U.S. political system and \u2018destroying (it) from within.\u2019 \u201d\u00a0 The IBD article explains that this subversive plan was spelled out in hundreds of pages of documents seized by the FBI during a raid on a Muslim Brotherhood leader\u2019s home in a Washington suburb after 9\/11.<\/p>\n<p>The article goes on to quote Nihad Awad, Founder and Executive Director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) as saying, \u201cMuslim voters have the potential to be swing voters in 2016.\u00a0 We are aiming to bring more participation from the Muslim community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One might ask, \u201cIs that a proffer, available to the highest bidder?\u201d\u00a0 Liberals and Democrats have always been known for their willingness to embrace almost any special interest agenda so long as that special interest brings enough money and votes to the table.\u00a0 Is it possible that they might be tempted to adopt the cause of radical Islam, ignoring the fact that they and their families are as much targets of radical Islam as conservatives and Republicans?<\/p>\n<p>The Democratic Party has been very successful at tap-dancing around the disparate interests of a large coalition of special interests, each demanding some self-serving policy or program <i>from<\/i> government.\u00a0 However, it is probably too much of a stretch to think that they would be so reckless as to adopt the anti-American, counter-cultural, agenda of radical Islam.\u00a0 Given the danger that radical Islam represents, they would do so at their own peril.\u00a0 Even they are smart enough to understand that an ant should not contemplate swallowing an elephant.<\/p>\n<p>Such was the case when the Communist Control Act of 1954 was under consideration. \u00a0The Communist threat during the early years of the Cold War led most liberals to overlook the fact that the CCA suspended citizenship rights of Communist Party members.\u00a0 Few liberals and Democrats offered more than token opposition; most ardently supported the CCA, as they did the unconscionable internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II.<\/p>\n<p>The Communist Control Act of 1954 made membership in the Communist Party a criminal act, conviction of which carried a fine of up to $10,000, imprisonment for five years, or both.\u00a0 However, it should be noted that, while no administration has ever attempted to enforce it, the U.S. Supreme Court has never ruled on the constitutionality of the CCA.\u00a0 Provisions of the act outlawing the Communist Party have not been repealed and could easily be customized in our efforts to protect our country and our culture from the internal threat posed by radical Islam.<\/p>\n<p>Reading Section 2 of the CCA, it is easy to see how the act could be tailored to meet the threat of Islamic jihad.\u00a0 By removing references to Communists and the Communist Party and substituting references to Islam, Section 2 of the Act could be paraphrased to read as follows:<\/p>\n<p><i>Sec. 2. The Congress hereby finds and declares that Islam, although purportedly a religious sect, is in fact an instrumentality of a conspiracy to overthrow the government of the United States. \u00a0It constitutes an authoritarian dictatorship within a republic, demanding for itself the rights and privileges accorded to individuals of other religious denominations, but denying to all others the freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution. \u00a0Unlike political parties, which evolve their policies and <a href=\"http:\/\/conservativeamericanvet.wordpress.com\/2010\/12\/01\/communist-control-act-of-1954-eisenhower-administration\/\">programs<\/a> through public means, the policies and programs of Islam are secretly prescribed by the foreign leaders of Islam. \u00a0Its members have no part in determining its goals and are not permitted to voice dissent to Muslim objectives. \u00a0Unlike members of political parties, members of the Islamic community are recruited for indoctrination with respect to Islamic objectives and are organized, instructed, and disciplined to carry out assignments given them by their leaders, including the order to kill and maim innocent men, women, and children by acting as suicide bombers. \u00a0Unlike political parties, Islamic jihad acknowledges no constitutional or statutory limitations upon its conduct or upon that of its members. \u00a0As a segment of the U.S. population, Islam is relatively small numerically and gives scant indication of its capacity ever to attain its ends by lawful political means.\u00a0 The peril inherent in the existence of Islam arises not from its numbers, but from its failure to acknowledge any limitation as to the nature of its activities, and its dedication to the proposition that the present constitutional government of the United States ultimately must be brought to ruin by any available means, including resort to force and violence. \u00a0Holding that doctrine, its role as the agency of a hostile foreign power renders its existence a clear present and continuing danger to the security of the United States. \u00a0It is the means whereby individuals are seduced into the service of Islam, trained to do its bidding, and directed and controlled in the conspiratorial performance of their revolutionary services. \u00a0Therefore, the organization known as Islam shall be outlawed in the United States.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>As the prominent sociologist, Ernest van den Haag said at the time of passage of the CCA, there is \u201cno place in a democracy for those who want to abolish [it], even with a peaceful vote.\u201d \u00a0Nor is there a place in a democracy for Islamists who acknowledge no respect for U.S. constitutional principles or the rule of law.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the next Republican president will sign legislation expanding the Communist Control Act of 1954 to cover the activities of radical Islam.\u00a0 His signing statement might echo President Eisenhower\u2019s CCA signing statement of August 24, 1954, declaring, <i>\u201cThe American people are determined to eliminate from their midst organizations which, purporting to be \u201creligious,\u201d in the accepted sense of that term, are actually conspirators dedicated to the destruction of our form of government by violence and force\u2026\u201d <\/i><\/p>\n<p>The Muslim infiltration of old Europe is such that some very old cultures are in serious danger of extinction.\u00a0 In Sweden, for example, one in every four Swedish women are victims of sexual assault, while more than three out of four convicted rapists in Sweden are Muslim immigrants from North African nations.\u00a0 They demonstrate no respect whatsoever for the people or the laws of nations that have thrown their doors open to them, making the great liberal experiment in multiculturalism a complete failure.<\/p>\n<p>Radical Islam poses a clear and present danger to the lives and property of the American people, and to the continued existence of western civilization.\u00a0 So that the American people can be fully cognizant of the subversive activities of Islamic jihad and to the dangers posed thereby, the Congress should take immediate steps to outlaw Islamic fundamentalism and to document its eradication by reestablishing the House Un-American Activities Committee.<\/p>\n<p>It matters little to Muslims whether the conquest of the West takes 10 years, 100 years, or 1,000 years.\u00a0 They have endless patience and the only way to deal with the threat is to confront it courageously and forthrightly.\u00a0 Islam must be made to understand that they will never gain full \u00a0acceptance in the Western world until such time as they renounce all forms of violence against non-Muslims, and Christians, Jews, and other religious denominations are accorded full religious freedom throughout the Muslim world. \u00a0That is the line in the sand that must be drawn\u2026 nothing less will suffice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the years immediately following World War II, most American were understandably
