Part 7: Advancing the Islamists’ Agendas

 ~~~

Building infrastructure and running candidates helps with the third part of Grover Norquist’s ongoing Islamist influence operation: advancing the agendas of the civilization jihadists or, at a minimum, promoting agendas that serve the Islamists’ interests. In this part, we take a look at some of those initiatives, including opposition a host of policies that keep America safe.

Key Points in Part 7

• Before, during and after the Bush ’43 administration, Grover Norquist has been associated with and often played a leading role in promoting various agenda items favored by the Muslim Brotherhood, Iran and other Islamists.  These have included:
• Endorsing political and legislative initiatives
• Attacking critics of shariah
• Opposing ‘American Laws for American Courts’
• Helping the Iranian regime
• Making common cause with the ‘Red-Green axis’
• Using his anti-tax campaigner’s access to open doors for the Muslim Brotherhood
• Norquist’s activities fit the profile of a classic influence operation involving:
• The recruiting of ‘Agents of Influence’ and ‘Useful Idiots’
• Employing such individuals to insinuate trusted personnel
• Burrowing into various targeted institutions and communities through friendships and alliances
• Credentialing Islamist operatives as members and, if possible, as leaders of such institutions and communities
• Using such leadership platforms and positions of influence “inside the wire” to fracture and isolate the targeted community

Discussion Topics

1. Should law enforcement agencies be able to use for the purpose of preventing terrorism the sorts of surveillance and investigative tools authorized for counter-drug and other efforts to counter illegal activity?  As this is the principal purpose – and involves the most controversial elements – of the Patriot Act, do you support it?
2. Should shariah-adherent Muslims be allowed to build a mosque and “cultural center” adjacent to Ground Zero?
3. Is it advisable, under present and foreseeable circumstances, to reduce dramatically the size and capabilities of the U.S. military or to leave America’s borders insecure?
4. Should the United States distance itself from Israel and pursue engagement with the Iranian regime?
5. Knowing what you do about the policies promoted by Grover Norquist – opposition to the Patriot Act, favoring the Ground Zero mosque, sharply reducing the defense budget, hostility towards Israel and promoting the Iranian regime’s party line – are you concerned that he is, according to “60 Minutes,” “the most powerful conservative man in Washington”?
6. Do you find persuasive the evidence provided that Grover Norquist has been and is now running a classic influence operation against the Republican Party, conservative movement and U.S. government?
