Thread by @WalidPhares

#MuslimBrotherhood-linked #CAIR lobby group listed as a terror entity by the #UAE, is suing a professor in AZ (among other) for using my book #FutureJihad as 1 of the references to his lectures. This flagrant assault on the 1st Amd is a political version of medieval book burning.

#CAIR smears me, using an #Ikhwan slander, describes me as "a known #Islamophobe who openly promotes anti-Muslim ideologies." I am a well known critic of #MuslimBrotherhood ideologies not of religion, in defense of a majority of Arabs and Muslims against Jihadism and Khomeinism.

#CAIR used (again) a @NYTimes smear against me in 2012 claiming "I warn against Shariah Law," while I do not refer to any theology in my public statements, but only to Jihadi & Khomeinist ideologies. I have warned & continue, against indoctrination promoted by CAIR like lobbies.

Since #CAIR is smearing my book, which has been used by Gov, media, NGOs, educators, students, worldwide as a great academic resource, in a court setting, this will give the author of that book the automatic right to inform the court of the perpetrated slander and fallacies.

A good read, #FutureJihad was published in 2005, as the first comprehensive analysis of the Jihadist ideologies and strategies against America and the West. The book made it to the top ten at the Foreign Affairs list. A 2d version was published in 2006.
