Civilization Jihad, Terrorism, and Islamic Social Norms 8-14-2026

 


USA

Misty a friend of The Straight Way of Grace Ministry shared some research on the Islamic Circle of North America, one of the groups listed on the Explanatory Memorandum of the North American Muslim Brotherhood. One interesting item she discovered is that ICNA Relief and Helping Hands have received federal awards and there is a note identifying an area warranting further examination:  the relationship between publicly funded activities, health and family services, refugee assistance, and explicitly Islamic or faith based programming conducted within ICNA Relief USA Programs and Helping Hand for Relief and Development.

This is important information because religious entities that receive awards are not allowed to share their faith with those receiving services. This is a huge reason Christian organizations avoid government funding.

WCVB out of Boston reported that a 39-year-old Massachusetts delivery driver is facing multiple charges after East Bridgewater police say he sexually assaulted a woman with severe mobility issues while delivering medication to her home.

Qaisar Ali of Brockton is charged with three counts of assault and battery on an elderly or disabled person, two counts of indecent assault and battery on an elderly or disabled person, indecent exposure, breaking and entering in the daytime, and assault with intent to commit rape.

Not stated by the media is that Qaisar is an illegal alien from Pakistan!

The Washington Free Beacon reported that Abdul El-Sayed's father-in-law, is among the top leaders of an Islamic organization identified by the federal government as a public facing group for the Muslim Brotherhood. Part of his role with the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), which the federal government linked to the financing of Hamas, Tayeb Jukaku contributes at least $5,000 to the organization annually.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/mckinney-city-council-unanimously-approves-mosque-site-plan-after-raucous-meeting/ar-AA29rAfz 

Dallas Morning News reported that the word “Traitor,” followed George Fuller, Mayor of McKinney City, Texas as he left the city council, for asking council members to treat the McKinney Islamic Association's request for approval of a new campus "fairly, impartially and according to the law."

For more than four hours, over 100 people spoke to the council, dozens in opposition to the mosque and to Islam itself, answering the calls of Texas Republican leaders to "STOP the spread of Sharia in Texas," as Rep. Keith Self, R-McKinney, wrote on X regarding the McKinney mosque.  

The site plan did not ask for any variance from the city's zoning rules or design exceptions, city staff said. The plan is "fully compliant" with city rules, according to city documents. Other approvals, like building permits, will require further consideration.

"This is a site plan approval and nothing else," said council member Justin Beller over boo-s and shouts of "recall" from the crowd. "I would encourage all citizens to resist this reckless political rhetoric which, in my opinion, amounts to election year fear-mongering."

The McKinney Islamic Association meets at its current mosque on Eldorado Parkway, which will remain open as the new buildings are constructed.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/us/articles/proposed-islamic-center-continues-draw-203948311.html 

WCNC out of Charlotte, NC, reported that construction is already underway on a new building for the Islamic Center of Lake Norman, but the project continues to draw pushback from some residents in the community.

The Islamic Center, founded in 2011, is building a new facility on Singleton Road that includes a prayer hall and a separate kitchen and office building. Town officials say commissioners have no legal authority to block the project.

That hasn't stopped residents from showing up to voice their concerns during a public comment period this week.

"People asking me, why did no one know? Is this even true? Why does it matter?" one resident said.

Some speakers raised concerns about a lack of advance notice regarding the project, as well as potential traffic impacts. Others opposed the center on religious grounds, drawing sharp criticism from civil rights organizations. The Council on American-Islamic Relations called some of the comments made during the meeting "hateful."

The Islamic Center of Lake Norman released a statement addressing the concerns, saying in part: "We follow the same laws and regulations as every other community, and the project is not expected to significantly affect traffic... We are your neighbors and an active part of the Mooresville community. And we hope we can all connect better as neighbors."

Al Rieder with CAIR- North Carolina, said he hopes people in the community will take time to learn more about Islam directly from members of the faith.

"If they don't know Islam or truly understand Islam, I highly highly urge people who are not Muslim in our community to physically go to mosques, reach out to them, … reach out to them, meet them, physically meet their imams, their pastors," Rieder said. "Those are knowledgeable people."

Combat Antisemitism ran the headline, “Turning a Blind Eye to Muslim Brotherhood Emboldens Extremists and Undermines US National Security.”

The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee on Federal Courts, Oversight, Agency Action, and Federal Rights held a hearing on Wednesday on the topic of “Hidden in Plain Sight: Confronting the Muslim Brotherhood Network in America.”

Subcommittee Chairman Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said, “I held a hearing today in which experts established that the Muslim Brotherhood and DSA communists are united by a shared hatred of America, Israel, Western civilization, capitalism, and democracy, and a revolutionary objective to overthrow the U.S. Constitution. That is why this issue is so critical.”

“The Brotherhood’s American network has spent decades building influence inside our nonprofits, political organizations, universities, courts, and taxpayer-funded programs,” he noted.

That hearing was boycotted by all five Democratic members of the subcommittee — Senators Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Alex Padilla (D-CA) and Peter Welch (D-VT) — who claimed its purpose was “scapegoating Muslims.”

In a statement ahead of the hearing, the Combat Antisemitism Movement (CAM) said, “The boycott by Senate Democrats of today’s … hearing on the Muslim Brotherhood network in the United States is both indefensible and deeply concerning. Turning a blind eye to this global terror-linked network and its growing presence in this country only emboldens extremists and undermines American national security.”

This same hearing was reported in the Texas Scorecard as having reviewed the relationship of CAIR an organization declared a terrorist entity in Texas and Florida with Epic City which has been rebranded as “The Meadow.”

Arielle F. Klepach, senior litigation counsel for the National Jewish Advocacy Centerlikened the EPIC City development, later rebranded as “The Meadow,” as following a pattern of “mega-mosque” building projects in Europe commonly motivated by “Islamist separatism.”

This movement is a “deliberate attempt to cut Muslim communities off spiritually, intellectually, and culturally from the surrounding secular society,” with the building projects in particular “generally [containing] community-like features such as schools, libraries, and gyms,” according to Klepach.

Senator Cruz cited public remarks by CAIR National Executive Director and co-founder Nihad Awad, who stated he was “happy to see people breaking the siege” with regard to the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks.

“Many people associated with CAIR have actively aided terrorism and criminal efforts,” stated Cruz. “Senior CAIR official Ghassan Elashi was sentenced to 65 years for funneling over $12 million to Hamas.”

On August 6, 2026, the red state of Mississippi appointed Assma (OZMA) A. Ali, a Yemeni-American immigration attorney from Ridgeland who publicly wears the full sharia hijab as a visible commitment to Islamic law, to serve as a Municipal Court Judge.

Within hours, celebratory posts flooded social media hailing her as the first Yemeni Muslim woman in hijab to reach the American bench. A photograph already circulates of Ali standing in a black judicial robe, gavel firmly in hand.

 

Massachusetts state Senate Bill S-2134 will force hiring Muslims to comment on proposed laws and policies in Massachusetts, with no other faith structure receiving such treatment. This places Islam above all other faith structures in Massachusetts. (Kristie)

The Bill states, “There shall be a permanent commission on the status of people who practice Islam consisting of 11 persons [Muslims]…The members of the commission shall receive no compensation for their services, provided however, that they shall be reimbursed for any usual and customary expenses incurred in the performance of their duties.”

Todd Starnes reported on  Brighton, NY which is in my neighborhood! The elected leaders of Brighton, said it was okay to display Islamic symbols in the public square, but not Christian symbols.

The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) has filed a federal lawsuit accusing officials in Brighton, New York, of violating the First Amendment after refusing to allow a Christian resident to erect a traditional Nativity scene in the town’s public square—despite permitting other religious displays, including a prominent Ramadan banner celebrating the Muslim holy month.

According to the complaint, Brighton officials have ignored repeated requests from a local physician for more than two years to display a life-size Nativity scene in the Twelve Corners public square during the Christmas season. Meanwhile, the town has allowed other private religious displays, including a large Ramadan banner and a Hanukkah menorah.

A 42-year-old match promoter with the FIFA national football organization and a representative of the Qatar football team has been charged with transportation of child pornography.

Ali Homoud Al-naimi had originally entered the United States from Qatar, but authorities took him into custody in Galveston after returning to the United States on a cruise ship traveling from Mexico.

At his detention hearing July 29, the court heard about images found on Alnaimi’s phones that allegedly depicted male children under the approximate age of five being sexually exploited. Evidence also revealed Alnami could easily return to Qatar where the United States does not have an extradition treaty. On July 31, the court ordered him into custody pending further criminal proceedings.  If convicted, Alnaimi faces up to 20 years in federal prison and a possible $250,000 maximum fine. 

The criminal complaint alleges Alnaimi had traveled to multiple states while in the United States and was taking a vacation from Galveston before leaving for Qatar. Alnaimi was allegedly in possession of child sexual abuse material that he had brought into the United States. 

Upon his arrest, the charges allege law enforcement discovered numerous videos depicting the child pornography on his cell phone.

The Daily Mail reported that a student police officer has been charged after a woman was reportedly rescued from his car after being kidnapped and raped.

Mohammad Hassan, 23, serving with Greater Manchester Police (GMP), was detained while off duty in West Yorkshire, after

A 999 call had been received shortly before 10.20pm, in which a woman could be heard in distress in a vehicle in the Manchester area, according to GMP.

Officers were then able to locate Hassan and arrest him. On Monday, he was charged with a number of offences, including rape, kidnap, strangulation, sexual assault, theft and dangerous driving.

Hassan was remanded in custody and due to appear at Manchester Magistrates' Court on Tuesday. 

 

https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-16039131/London-based-Muslim-Brotherhood-member-accused-living-double-life-terror-financier-cash-Hamas.html

The Daily Mail reported that Mahmoud Al-Abyari has been secretly living a double life as a terror financier, accused by the US of funneling cash to Hamas through two sham charities.

It has been claimed the 74-year-old is a senior leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, the global extremist group the US banned as a terrorist entity in January.

In Britain, showing support for Hamas, a proscribed organisation, can carry a jail term of up to 14 years - yet The Mail on Sunday understands he has not yet been questioned by the Metropolitan Police.

Al-Abyari was photographed leaving his house on foot last week, despite telling a reporter from this newspaper on WhatsApp that he was too ill to talk.

The dual Egyptian-Austrian national, who has lived in Britain for decades, denies ever funding Hamas and dismisses the US sanctions as 'false' and 'without proof'.

The US Treasury has described Al-Abyari as 'a United Kingdom-based senior leader of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, a group designated as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist in January 2026.' It states that Al-Abyari fundraised for two Turkish charities, Filistin Vakfi and Hayat Yolu, both previously banned by the US for raising money for Hamas.

The Treasury added that Al-Abyari 'worked with Muslim Brotherhood groups to support and provide financial assistance to Hamas'.

The BBC reported that a 13-year-old girl was subjected to a "deeply distressing" kidnap and assault attempt as she was roller-skating home. The teenager was out with a friend in Basildon when she was grabbed and forced to the ground by Mohammed Younas, who said he had a gun and knife. He fled shortly afterwards but police arrested him three days later after matching his DNA to that found on the girl's shoe.

British-born Younas, 31, was jailed for nine years after admitting kidnap and engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child.

https://www.cambs.police.uk/news/cambridgeshire/news/2026/august/man-jailed-for-vicious-attack/

The Cambridgeshire Constabulary reported that Abdiftah Ahmed, 27, attacked a victim who had just left a pub in Broadway and was looking for a taxi at about 12.35am on 22 December 2019.

Ahmed dragged the man, who was in his 40s, to the ground and kicked him multiple times to the head. He then walked away but returned with his mobile phone and appeared to take a photo or video of the victim before kicking him twice more.

Onlookers came to the victim’s aid, and he was taken to hospital with a broken nose and injuries to his face which required surgery.

Ahmed was arrested and data from his mobile phone confirmed he was in the area at the time of the attack, and CCTV footage was used to identify Ahmed.

Ahmed was charged with causing grievous bodily harm with intent and appeared at Peterborough Magistrates’ Court on 26 October 2020. It took six years, but Abdiftah Ahmed was finally tried and on Tuesday (4 August), and has been jailed for five years, having admitted a lesser charge of causing grievous bodily harm without intent.

The Daily News reported that Labour's attempts to tackle the Channel crisis were branded a 'complete laughing stock' on Monday, August 10th after a record 230 migrants arrived on one dinghy.

The huge number – more than the capacity of a Boeing 737 jet – crossed from France yesterday, prompting the Conservatives to taunt Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood for 'presiding over a complete and utter farce'.

The record-breaking mega-dinghy arrived less than two weeks after Andy Burnham insisted the Government's plan was working.

The vast majority are Muslims.

 

MOROCCO/Ceuta [say-oo-tah]—Spain

https://toddbensman.substack.com/p/did-spain-go-full-trump-to-end-the

Todd Bensman who recently left working for the White House asks if Spain just went Full Trump to end the Ceuta Mass migration crisis.

Bensman writes that during the crisis a human tsunami of 72,000 North Africans swamped the Spanish enclave on the Moroccan coast on July 30 and 31—could easily have lasted for months. However, it is all over but for some mopping up.

Few, if any more, are coming or adding to the death toll of 75. Most of those who crashed the European Union’s gates at Spain’s Ceuta are back in Morocco. A few thousand migrants remain who are generally harder to return under Spanish/European Union rules—such as sub-Saharan Africans and unaccompanied minors.

Pollar reported that two Toulouse police officers were stabbed by a man shouting Allahu Akbar on August 10th.

According to Le Figaro, the individual first approached the officers' vehicle pretending to provide information, then insulted and threatened them before brandishing two knives. The assailant lunged at the vehicle, making violent gestures. When one officer in the passenger seat lowered the window, the man struck the interior with an object resembling an oyster knife. The officers exited the vehicle to attempt to subdue him.

According to the deputy mayor for security, Émilion Esnault, the arrest was extremely difficult. Officers confiscated one knife but the attacker was carrying two more. The man shouted "Allahu Akbar" several times during the assault. A video authenticated by a source close to the investigation and published by BFMTV shows one male officer struggling with the man, attempting to stop him with baton strikes, while one of two female officers sprays tear gas in his face. The officer eventually pinned the man to the ground with support from his two colleagues. The attacker was also transported to hospital.

 

https://www.ewtnnews.com/world/europe/french-government-shuts-down-paris-area-mosque-over-alleged-support-for-terrorism

EWTN News reported that French authorities on July 27 ordered the closure of a mosque in the Paris region for six months, citing sermons and social media posts by its imams that officials say glorified terrorism, legitimized jihad, and incited violence, hatred, and discrimination.

The closure occurred in the context of growing political debates around the challenges posed by the expansion of Islam in the country. The order targeted the “Chanteloup” mosque in a suburb northeast of the capital in the Seine-Saint-Denis department.

The closure was ordered under a provision enacted in October 2017 that allows prefects to shut down places of worship where preaching is found to “incite violence or hatred, promote terrorism, or provoke acts of terrorism.”
