		<description>When the U.A.E., a shipping powerhouse, bid to manage the front offices of 6 U.S. ports, it sailed through every commitee, in light of the fact that they are our strongest ally in Africa, strategically positioned by the Strait of Hormuz and is the location of our largest Navy port.  Rep C. Schumer, Democ-rat, RAN UP THE RACIST FLAG and claimed, "the A-rabs are runnin' port security!"  Demonized and tarred our STRONGEST ALLY! This, brought to you by the "Smear America and it's Allies for Personal Gain" wing of the Democ-rat Party, the Liberal left wing.</description>

		<description>You are all missing the point. David Horowitz is not attacking the muslim religion or people who believe in Islam. He is specifically targeting *Islamo-Fascists* which is a twisted political idealogy.  That is why it is called Islamo-Fascism awareness and not Islam awareness. I mean you people need to read more closely.  He is not saying anything bad about muslims in general.  It is no different than someone starting a KKK Awareness week.  Obviously all white people are not KKK.  You all need to pay more attention.  I mean 90% of the posts here are asserting that Horowitz is Islamophobic but that is not the case any more than saying people who hate the KKK are phobic of all whites.</description>

		<description>I think the biggest thread to America is Zionism and NOT radical Islam. It is the brual treatment of Muslims in Palestine by the Zionists that have led to the creation of radical Islam. The Zionists in America are putting the interst of Isreal ahead of that of America. As a result, they are  destroying America by getting it involved in all these uncessecary wars for the security of Isreal. it is true that America has been the target by radical Muslim terrorists, but the question that should be asked is why is that? And the answer is because the Bush administration has been supporting unconditionally of the Zionists in Isreal whether Israel is the Aggressor or not. The IDF has been bullying all its neighbors (Syria most recently), and yet the Bush administation has been fully supportive of it. It is this kind of naked conspiracy that drives Muslims to become radical! Mulsims DO NOT hate America and Americans. They do not like the American's policy towards the Meadle  East. That's the realy reason and NOT the former.

		<description>David Horrowitz justifies his absurd agenda by subtitling his "Islamofacist week" 'A focus on the oppression of women' in a poor and unjustified attempt to downplay the hateful accusations against Muslims that his organization brings forth. There are an estimated 1,209 mosques in America, Between 17 and 30 percent of American Muslims are converts to the faith, and these numbers are rising. That there is an estimated Muslim population of 5,220,000 in the United States as reported by the World Almanac in 1991, insists a much larger population today. The total worldwide Muslim population is generally estimated at slightly more that 1 billion. The types of accusations Horowitz makes is not without consequence to the great deal of American people who choose to celebrate and participate in the Muslim faith. Already, it is clear many Muslims in the United States have been subject to hate crimes that would be justified under Horowitz and his cronies as means for 'peace' and 'security'. Peace and security for whom? Is Horowitz presuming that only White conservative Christian Americans deserve the freedom as given by the consititution that he so willfully calls upon? Is he implying that difference in our society should not be allowed to exist? Even the name he has chosen to label this blatant hatefest, 'IslamoFacism' awareness, is yet another -ism chosen arbitrarily to collectively group an entire people with any sortof sympathy or care or grounding. Ultimately, it is another -ism that is misinformed and indifferentiable from other ism's we see today, elected (by conservative radicals) to signify a people, belief system, whatever, without any sortof relationship to the fact of the people it aims to signify. Not to mention, Horowitz draws up such vocabulary that is unfamiliar to him and to many English-speakers to be registered so quickly as a label. For example, a term like 'jihad' has been strategically lead to mean "Holy war," however a careful analysis of the word as it appears in religious text leads to a very different understanding of the world. The majority of Muslim scholars and Muslims themselves understand this word in an entirely different and particular sense. The Arabic word is translated more correctly from "jahada" which means "to strive," the term 'jihad' derived then as a "spiritual struggle" or "self struggle" meant to apply to daily life in an assertive bettering of the self in ones' society. The evidence for bookish and weak claims made by Horowitz are an example of many ignorant associations made by expeditions to fight 'terrorism' today. The ramifications of such expeditions are more costly for freedom than the average United States citizen would like to imagine. We must consider the American Muslims as part of the America that Horowitz claims to protect. We must realize the convenience (for Horowitz and friends) to use the term Muslim in cooperation with Terrorism, Arab, etc. when the reality of such relationships simply does not exist as real or true when we are talking about the entire Muslim community (might I remind the reader of the number of Muslims in the United States?) We must also remember, that even the implied 'no-brainer' type of association between Muslim and Arab as Horowitz assumes, is entirely incorrect, since actually the largest Muslim community in the world is located in Indonesia who's languages include Bahasa Indonesia (official, modified form of Malay), English, Dutch, local dialects (the most widely spoken of which is Javanese). How could anyone take someone like Horowitz seriously with the list of factual evidence against his claims being more extensive than any sortof ficticious and manipulated information he chooses to justify his irrational campaign?</description>
