I think the comments to the article about ISNA reveals more than the article.
Here is one-
But please realize that (this forum) gives those of us who have been threatened and oppressed by these organizations with criminal ties, a chance to tell the truth of the matter. Please encourage all you know to read this and then USA Today can take it down and move on to topics of greater interest to you.
The message must get out that these Saudi & UAE sponsored Wahhabi/Salafi organizations have perpetuated a GREAT FRAUD saying that they represent Muslims in the US. There are approx. 40,000 - 100,000 that are faithful to their treasonous goals to replace the US constitution with Sharia. Their seminars teach the elite engineers, professors and doctors HOW TO TAKEOVER our moderate and progressive Mosques. Their seminars teach how to spread propaganda to make the radicals appear to be moderate Muslims...while the true Muslim moderates are threatened and driven out of their own Mosques. They are called heretics and unbelievers and hypocrites and neo-con spies. The fact that they lable us neo-con spies when we have no government involvement at all SHOWS how anti-US goverment they ARE.
But please do not let the notion of The Egyptian Brotherhood that morphed into an international Brotherhood in solidarity against the US and democracy, blind you to the vast complexity of their organizations. This label would make the majority of advocates to appear to be Arabs when the supports of the terror and radical organizations of the subcontinent are equally involved. Jamaat-i-Islami is one of the many terror organizations that members of the Wahhabi/Salafi lobby support. It is a terror organization based in Pakistan and many of the professional organizations affiliated with the Wahhabi/Salafi lobby bring together professionals of Pakistani or sub-continent heritage who seek to undermine the US by promoting the Shariah agenda. The reason our Mosques are being taken over by radicals and terrorist sympathizers is that PROFESSIONALS and ELITES of the community are leading the radicalization of our Mosques. If a professional introduces the jihadist ideology of Qutb or Mawdudi to our educational curriculums, then the common people ASSUME that to follow the leaders is correct, because they are educated and know better.
It is the professional organizations of these treasonous lobbies that are radicalizing the Muslims in America. This very real problem must be recognized and addressed.
I urge you to GO TO THEIR CONVENTION and take note of all the professional organizations who aid their covert aims to destroy American society from within.
Note how these people are activists in protecting terrorists rather than helping us STOP the very real problem with TERRORISM.
Please remember that there are between 2-6 million Muslims in the US who do not attend their conventions. We know that these people are covertly seeking to aid the terrorists and are a danger to all people who advocate honesty, peace and methods of diplomacy to achieve conflict resolution.
Please get the message out that this is the truth of what is happening inside US Mosques. The media needs to boycott these dangerous organizations as:
THEY DO NOT REPRESENT the 2-6 MILLION MUSLIMS IN AMERICA.
WE ARE ASHAMED WHEN A SUPPOSED CIVIL RIGHTS GROUP DEFENDS TERRORISTS INSTEAD OF THOSE MUSLIMS FIGHTING TERRORIST MENTALITY. THOSE OF US FIGHTING TERRORISM ARE BULLIED AND THREATENED BY MEMBERS OF THESE GROUPS. PLEASE SEE THE REALITY OF WHAT IS HAPPENING.
I HAVE ATTENDED ANTI-WAR PROTESTS SPONSORED BY tTHE MSA AND HEARD THEM CHANT - AMERICA IS THE TERRORIST AND DEATH TO ISRAEL. PLEASE TRY TO SEE WHY YOU MUST KNOW THE TRUTH. PEOPLE NEED TO BE AWARE OF THE MUSLIM MAFIA THAT IS CLAIMING TO SPEAK FOR MUSLIMS. THEY ARE LIARS - THEY DO NOT SPEAK FOR US AND THEY ARE DANGEROUS TO ALL WHO SEEK RESOLUTION TO WORLD CONFLICT AND LONG FOR PEACE.
THEY REPRESENT THOSE OF COVERT CRIMINAL INTENT. THEIR SEMINARS ARE GEARED TO AROUSE ANTI-WESTERN SENTIMENTS AND ENCOURAGE JIHADIST IDEOLOGY. THEY HAVE BEEN ENCOURAGING DESTRUCTION OF OUR SOCIETY FROM WITHIN FOR DECADES AND THERE ARE VIDEOS AND TAPES THAT ATTEST TO THIS TRUTH.

"Religion is all about extending mercy and caring...Mattson's Islam? "To glorify God through service to God's creation."
If only the whole world would follow that principal. However, I wonder what she as a convert to Islam has to say about these stories that pop up in the news every month:
In Pakistian, Christians, Hindus and Sikhs face covert to Islam or die threats.

In Egypt, an ex-muslim faces death threats.
Death threats, his family’s renunciation of him, and condemnation from most of Egypt have not deterred Christian convert Mohammed Ahmed Hegazy from pursuing his historic case to seek official recognition for his conversion from Islam to Christianity.
