Film Warns of Non-Violent Muslim Takeoverby Hillel Fendel (IsraelNN.com) A new film warns bleakly but dramatically that Islam has all but taken over Europe, and that radical Islam threatens to do the same in the United States. The Third Jihad paints a dramatic picture, brushstroke by shocking brushstroke, depicting the non-violent methods by which radical Islam seeks to fulfill its goal of nothing short than conquering the world and establishing “the global Islamic state.” This is the goal set by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinajad, Lebanese Islamists on Al-Jazeera TV, Jordanian Sheikh Ali Ali-Faqir and Hamas MP and cleric Yunis Al-Astal on Al-Aqsa TV in Hamas-run Gaza [they also appear in the movie], and countless other Islamic leaders. The Third Jihad was released earlier this year by The Clarion Fund, the producers of another documentary film, Obsession. However, explains Alex Traiman of Clarion, “Obsession – which was viewed by over 30 million Americans – deals with the threat of Islamic terrorism, while the current film focuses more on the multifaceted strategy of non-violent, cultural jihad by which the radical Islamists actively seek to undermine and take over the American way of life.” The 70-minute film is narrated by a devout Muslim American, Dr. M. Zuhdi Jasser, and opens with the following statement: “This is not a film about Islam. It is about the threat of radical Islam. Only a small percentage of the world's 1.3 billion Muslims are radical. This film is about them.” Among the more frightening remarks made by many of the scholars and experts who appear in the film are these: “If I had to sum up my message to the Americans in two words, I would say: Wake up.” – Bernard Lewis, renowned British-American historian at Princeton University who specializes in the history of Islam and the interaction between Islam and the West. “Islamicism is like cancer; you either defeat it or it will defeat you... The real war is not against a bunch of terrorists, but rather of the values of democracy and freedom against the values of barbarism.”– Dr. Tawfiq Hamid, a former Islamic-Egyptian extremist who has come to recognize the threat of radical Islam and the need for reformation. ‘Islam is coming to America the same way Christianity came to Rome... whether they like it or not. We talk about the Islamic State of North America by 2050... The people of Hamas and Hizbullah are good people; they don’t deserve condemnation, they do good things.” - Imam Abdul Musa of Washington, D.C. On the backdrop of a scene of a mother who proudly sent off three of her sons on suicide missions and said she would be willing to sacrifice even 100 of her children: “When you have Muslims who are willing to kill their own children and wrap a bomb around them, what prevents them from killing my children? Or from killing millions of children of other people?” - Manda Zand Ervin, Founder and President of Alliance of Iranian Women Speaking with IsraelNationalRadio’s Yishai Fleisher, Traiman explained several aspects of the cultural jihad, including the zeroing-in on American sensitivity to freedom of religion and speech: Another method is prison recruitment. In New York State, for instance, where 1% of the population is Muslim, 18% of the prison inmates are now Muslim – many of them newly-converted while in jail.
