July 4, 2009: ISNA VS. LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS
There are two Americas indeed. One for beleaguered, put upon patriots under seige for their love of country, the Constitution, freeedom of speech, and individual rights. The other is the "special class" that we are oppressed and subjugated by on a daily basis. Individualism vs collectivism. Islamic supremacism vs democracy.
Today was the kick-off of the Islamic Society of North America conference in Washington DC. The timing could not be more deliberate. Sort of like the North Koreans firing missiles on Fourth of July. ISNA is as compatible with American values and freedoms as sharia is compatible with democracy.
Dave Gaubatz attended (or at least tried to) and this was his experience.What happened to Mr. Gaubatz is an outrage. Bear in mind this is America and these very same Islamists invoke our freedoms to kill our freedom. They invoke freedom of speech to kill freedom of speech. They use lawfare and litigation jihad to silence truth tellers. Dave will be writing a full recounting of today's events but look at his report thus far.
It's pretty clear CAIR/ISNA tried to have this man killed or arrested. Expose Islam and risk your life.CAIR/ISNA distributing photos of "threats" to the police is like the Nazis distributing photos of Jews. They are this century's Nazis. Shouldn't law enforcement know who the good guys are?
This is America?They set up Gaubatz. They know who he is. He was instrumental in exposing the child beatings at the Al Farooq mosque in Nashville here and here. Clearly, CAIR and ISNA were hoping for a larger incident.
Law enforcement just had the Holocaust (as they told Gaubatz) and the only thing officers in the DC were given were four phto shopped photos of him. The three Iraq photos give to the police by CAIR led them to believe these were just weapons I carried. In Iraq as a Civilian Federal Agent.
Here is what Dave wrote:
Quick synopsis, of course more coming out later tonight/tomorrow:
1. Went to ISNA/DC to check in. I had prepaid $100.00 fee and had my registration..
2. It was apparent I was 'flagged'.
3. 8 or 9 ISNA and other men surround me.
4. They refused to tell me who they are or why they want me to leave.
5. One then said CAIR wants you out.
6. They began crowding me. I was professional and told them to step away from me, tell me who they are, and why was I being illegally detained.
7. I told them this could have been avoided if ISNA would have emailed me a cancellation. I told them I want my $100.00 back. Meanwhile I was asking them some tough questions they could not answer.
8. Then the group led me out of the convention; still no names of who they were.
9. I was on the street and noticed at least 3 DC patrol cars. I took pictures. Then I started walking toward my parked car. One patrol car was following me slowly. I stopped took a few pictures of him. Then walked to my car.
10. I got in my car. Three Patrol cars surrounded me and surrounded my vehicle. I was told to get out.
11. I asked what was the problem. Finally one officer showed me a picture CAIR had given them and told them I was a threat. It had four pictures. 3 were with me in Iraq with my M-16 and 9mm, and two I was holding AK-47s in Iraq. CAIR had photocopied the picture of me helping a sick iraqi child from the picture. Then CAIR had cropped my head shot onto a Nazi uniform (which was obvious).
12. The lead cop said this is all CAIR had given them. I told them about the pictures, my background in Iraq, and who I was. They knew nothing of this.
13. CAIR and ISNA had essentially tried to get me killed. The officer said they just had the holocaust shooting. CAIR intentionally misled the officers to make them believe I was just someone who carries guns. CAIR failed to tell them these were pictures from Iraq when I was serving my country.
Bit frustrated right now and hope we can get American people to respond legally or more and more of this will happen to innocent Americans.
Please share with others. I will have more posted later. Going to bed now. What a 4th. Respectfully, dave G.
Note: They did not know, but I had CCTV of entire event. Dave G.
The ISNA/CAIR people would not identify themselves, and last year Dave Gaubatz was questioned briefly (by request of CAIR) at ISNA. Of course he was told by an FBI agent and Columbus Detective last year that he was free to attend (which he did attend the entire conference last year with no problem). He did not know if they were law enforcement, and when they asked for his ID he gave it to them because he did not want the situation to escalate. They will get law enforcement to clarify tomorrow, but they were provided pictures of him in Iraq during the war, but were not told these were war photos.
Law enforcement was also provided a photoshop picture of him with his face (obviously) posted in a nazi uniform. I believe this was done to put his life at risk because of the tragic shooting at the Holocaust museum a few weeks ago. Law enforcement was not told these were war photos, and obviously not that the Nazi picture was a fake. They were led to believe he posed a serious security threat, and Gaubatz and I believe this put his life in danger with LE.
Here is a copy of Dave's confirmation and registration for ISNA.
Obama's administration is partnering with these enemies of freedom: Patrick Poole has a scathing indictment of Eric Holder's Department of Justice and ISNA.
Here is another account of a pro-freedom rally across the street from the conference:
July 4, 2009 - Independence Day: Defending Equality And Liberty at DC ISNA Conference
On July 4, Responsible for Equality And Liberty (R.E.A.L.) members stood outside of the DC Convention Center in the Mt. Vernon Square across the street to challenge the Washington DC ISNA convention on the issue of Islamic supremacism. Per our previous article announcing this protest, we explained why we felt it was necessary to challenge ISNA on this Independence Day - where R.E.A.L. is calling for independence not just for America, but for the rest of humanity from supremacist and totalitarian ideologies. On this Independence Day, we are also calling for independence from those oppressed by Islamic supremacists as well.
At today’s protest, we stated that as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. recognized the ideological challenge of “white supremacism,” so we too today recognize the ideological challenge of “Islamic supremacism.” While we realize that such a challenge is not popular with some, we feel that if we are true to courage of convictions on human equality, that on July 4, as on every other day, we must defy such supremacist ideologies.
One of R.E.A.L.'s signs at the July 4 DC Rally for Equality And Liberty
We challenged ISNA to address the universal human right of EQUALITY, including equality of women, homosexuals, non-Muslims, and different Muslim sects. We challenged ISNA that without equality, we have no life, liberty, or the pursuit of happiness. We challenged Americans to remember, especially on July 4, that in our Declaration of Independence we view human equality as “a truth that we hold self-evident.” Equality is the foundation to all of our other universal human rights.
We asked ISNA this question: “when will you condemn Islamic supremacism?”
Responsible for Equality And Liberty at ISNA Confererence - July 4, 2009
We asked ISNA - “when will you start addressing the stonings and honor killings of women and homosexuals by Islamic supremacists around the world?” We asked ISNA - “when will you acknowledge the use of Sharia in the deaths, mutilations, and amputations of women, non-Muslims, and Muslims around the world?” We spent two hours going over specific examples of the repression, torture, mutilations, stoning, honor killings, and murders of women, other Muslims, non-Muslims, homosexuals and others who Islamic surpremacists have viewed as a threat. We stated that on this Independence Day, we must speak for those suffering from oppression from Islamic supremacism around the world.
We explained that our universal human rights are not dependent on any religion, and we explained our universal human rights must be consistent for all people around the world. Some ISNA convention goers stated to us that universal human rights don’t matter to them; they stated that the only rights that matter to them where those based on their religion. We challenge that supremacist view on “human rights,” both as Americans and as fellow human beings. We declare that our universal human rights apply - no matter your religion, your gender, your race, or your identity - our universal human rights apply to every human being.
We also announced our ORANGE RIBBON campaign for equality and liberty, and provided handouts to those going to the ISNA convention to educate them on their universal human rights and our campaign to defend such rights. We have chosen ORANGE as our symbol for universal human rights that apply to all our fellow human beings on Earth.

Several individuals going to the ISNA conference did not like what we had to say. Those individuals sought to shout us down. However, the Washington DC Metropolitan Police Department stepped in to defend our right to freedom of speech.

July 4 - R.E.A.L. Continues Its Message Challenging Islamic Supremacism and Defending Universal Human Rights
We also asked ISNA how it could have a theme of “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,” when it not only ignored the foundation of EQUALITY that is the basis for all of our universal human rights, but also had speakers who have defended or been unwilling to challenge Islamic supremacism.
– Siraj Wahhaj was a character witness for convicted 1993 World Trade Center terrorist “blind sheik” Omar Rahman, has called for replacing the American government with a caliphate. According to Siraj Wahhaj, “if only Muslims were clever politically, they could take over the United States and replace its constitutional govt. with a caliphate. If we were united and strong, he said, we would elect our own emir and give allegiance to him. Take my word if 8 million Muslims unite in America, the country will come to us.”
– Hamza Yusef (also spelled Hamza Yousuf or Hamza Yousef) has described Judaism as a “most racist religion,” and who promotes Jihad stating that Jihad is the duty and responsibility of all Muslims, further stating that “Jihad is actually considered a Rahma (mercy) in Islam.” Yusef’s idea of “compromise” is that “There are times when you have to live like a sheep in order to live in the future like a lion.”
– Zaid Shakir has stated “Every Muslim who is honest would say, I would like to see America become a Muslim country”
– ISNA’s Ingrid Mattson has defended the idea of an Islamic supremacist caliphate, and has portrayed Christians as a threat to Jews. On the idea of the Islamic supremacist caliphate, she has stated that “the overthrowing of the caliphate… was a plan of European powers for many years. This deprived the Muslim world of a stable and centralized authority, and much of the chaos that we’re living in today is the result of that.” Ingrid Mattson also claims that “Muslim women have the same legal rights as Muslim men,” when we see daily how women are treated as second-class human beings by Islamic supremacists who seek the same “caliphate” that Ingrid Mattson defends.
On July 3, the ISNA conference also had Ihsan Bagby speak on “compelling history of Islam in the Americas and highlight the extraordinary contributions of Muslims to the American experience.” But what has ISNA speaker Ihsan Bagby said about America? According to Ihsan Bagby, “we [Muslims] can never be full citizens of this country… because there is no way we can be fully committed to the institutions and ideologies of this country.”

Department of State’s Criterion in Partnering with Jihadists in America
Ever since Obama took office, we have been scratching our heads trying to understand how and why he is reaching out to hardcore jihad-supporting Muslims. I documented the dangerous partnership of ISNA with the FBI. Patrick Poole has a scathing indictment of Eric Holder's Department of Justice and ISNA. It's no accident, it's systemic. And it is sanctioned at the highest levels of government
ISNA, CAIR, FBI AND Department of Justice Axis of Jihad...
