"What Happened to the Automat?" (opens in separate window)
the dark alliance with islam
saturday, march 28th, 2026
For 15 years the FBI was engaged in a landmark investigation into the largest Islamic-based charity in the United States, called The Holy Land Foundation. The organization was operating as a front for Muslim terror groups, funneling cash from western countries to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood, until they were finally put on trial in 2008.
[FULL TITLE: "The Political Left, Multiculturalism And The Dark Alliance With Islam"]
Convicted leaders were known as the “Holy Land Five,” and included Shukri Abu Baker, Ghassan Elashi, Mufid Abdulqader, Abdulrahman Odeh, and Mohammad El-Mezain. Among the documents seized from these individuals during the investigation was a strategic paper drafted by senior Muslim Brotherhood operative Mohamed Akram in 1991. There are ironies involved with this. The left celebrates and pushes homosexuality. Yet the Islamists throw homosexuals off of buildings in some parts of the world. The left celebrates women’s rights and women’s issues and all of that. Yet the Islamists literally wrap up women in sacks and make them second class citizens in some parts of the world. It appears to me there are irreconcilable differences between the leftists and Islamists. Yet we see, they seem to be united in their common goals of fundamentally transforming western civilization.
The paper was titled: “Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Group in North America”. It outlined an agenda called the “Civilization-Jihadist Process”, also known as “Stealth Jihad”.
The memorandum gave detailed methods for establishing Islam as a “civilization alternative” in the West and a “grand Jihad” for eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within. It called for the ‘sabotaging’ of the west and its “miserable house” by domestic hands AND the hands of the believers so that the west is eliminated and “God’s religion is made victorious over all other religions.”
The plan explicitly referred to using western society’s own people, institutions, laws, and unwitting allies (progressive groups and NGOs, media, politicians, academics, or civil-rights organizations) to advance the Islamic agenda.
Tactics included infiltration of education, media, government, finance, and alliances with non-Islamic actors “when tactically beneficial” while maintaining ideological separation. This is also called “long-term settlement” (tamkeen); a form of demographic or cultural subversion rather than direct conquest. It is often mentioned in the paper as “the settlement mission”.
A related 1982 Muslim Brotherhood document (called “The Project”) outlines a 100-year global plan with similar elements: building parallel societies, exploiting Western freedoms, and forming pragmatic coalitions.
One problem the Muslims wrestled with was the need for foreign alliances and western “advocates” to make immigration and the integration of Islam into target countries more “official”. Twenty-five years ago, this was considered all but impossible in the US and in Europe. However, since around 2014, the Sharia fundamentalists found a willing and ready ally in the new “woke” left.
Today, the notion of even discussing the agenda of “Stealth Jihad” in a public venue in 2026 is labeled “racist” by progressive activists and left wing politicians (even though Islam is not a race). If you were to go back in time around 15 years ago and explain to people what is happening today in terms of third-world immigration, they would probably laugh in your face and call you a conspiracy theorist.
In 2026 in Europe the plan is nearly complete and in the US the plan is well underway. The change in how our society views Islam as an untouchable subject is largely due to a dark and convenient political alliance between the woke left and the Stealth Jihad.
Only recently has the problem of Muslim immigration risen to the forefront of media coverage, but only because of the work of citizen journalists like Nick Shirley who are exposing widespread fraud among migrants. The majority of this fraud, whether it is in Minnesota or California, is connected to Somali Muslim immigrants and is perpetrated with the help of leftist NGOs and politicians.
Coming from a country with an average IQ of 67, these people are not capable of instituting such a plan on their own. They had help and it is clear that Democrats are deeply involved in these operations, perhaps in exchange for financial kick-backs, but certainly in exchange for votes (Somali migrants in Minnesota voted 80% in favor of Democrats in 2024).
It’s not surprising, but there are a lot of similarities between progressives in the west and third world Islamic migrants from the east.
The political left has long held an agenda similar to Stealth Jihad. In Marxism it is referred to as “cultural hegemony” or “the long march through the institutions”. It is associated with the work of Antonio Gramsci, the founder of the Italian Communist Party. Interestingly, his ideas of cultural hegemony are often studied as a means of better understanding the agenda of Stealth Jihad.
Gramsci’s approach (developed in his Prison Notebooks in the 1920s–1930s) argued that in advanced capitalist societies the “ruling class” maintains power through cultural hegemony. To overthrow this, he asserted that revolutionaries must wage a “war of position” rather than a frontal assault.
This meant infiltrating and capturing key institutions (schools, universities, media, churches, judiciary, government bureaucracies) to erode cultural norms, reshape public consciousness, and create counter-hegemony until socialism/communism becomes the new ideological norm. We have witnessed this nightmare in vivid color with the woke movement of the past decade. For the longest time the agenda was dismissed as “conspiracy.”
I would also point out that the general attitudes of third world migrants and leftists are essentially the same when it comes to production and survival: Both groups view producers as targets for piracy. Why would they integrate into western society, work hard and build for the future when they can feed off the production of others? Why create their own wealth when it is so much easier to pillage the wealth of people who innovate, construct and save?
But this partnership goes far beyond easy cash and socialized living into the realm of ideological and religious warfare. As noted, Stealth Jihad is about the exploitation of western freedoms and open systems as a means to invade and drive out the native religions (Christianity).
The Christian belief system is essential to western civilization. Whether or not a person living in the west believes in it doesn’t matter; they still benefit from the inherent Christian drive to build, structure and maintain a moral and ordered society based on rules for EVERYONE.
You would think that a partnership between Islam and the woke cult would be completely antithetical. After all, Muslim societies are defined by the rule of dominance, tribalism and brutal theocracy. There is zero tolerance in Islamic society for feminism, homosexuality, transgender theory or atheism. The Marxist world is rooted in atheism and moral relativism – The deconstruction of societal norms and the idea that unchecked hedonism is the ultimate form of freedom.
However, each group is beneficial to the other; they serve each other’s purposes. They also have the same primary enemy (Christianity). This intersection of benefits and shared hatred is where we find “Multiculturalism” – The agenda to wipe out the west using third-world immigration as a bulldozer.
Multiculturalism is simply an updated version of Gramsci’s Marxist cultural hegemony strategy, combined with third world notions of ethnic supremacy or religious supremacy. If you want to understand what is happening in places like the EU or the UK; if you want to know why these governments are completely ignoring the will of the public and blatantly aiding an Islamic invasion, this is why.
These are leftist governments with a clear objective to eliminate competing western and Christian ideals in order to establish a new cultural hegemony, and they are doing it subversively by using liberal values as a cudgel. Modern Europeans, fearful of ever being accused of “bigotry”, refuse to admit that they are committing high-minded suicide. Blind acceptance of immigration and the inability to discriminate logically is setting Europe on the path of total collapse.
This is what the Marxists want, and this is what the Muslims want. It’s much easier to pirate and enslave a population in the midst of social and economic crisis.
In the US we see a similar plan, though, leftists are working much harder to present Muslim migrants as ideologically aligned with liberalism. When conservatives see groups like “Queers for Palestine”, or we see New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani hiring transgenders for his administration while holding Muslim dinners on the floor of his office, what we are witnessing is the theatrical facade of “inclusivity.”
At bottom, these people do not share viewpoints that can truly “intersect”, but their short term goals are the same. Leftists hate conservatives and Christians because we represent a rules based order that stands in the way of their vision of pure hedonism. Muslims see conservatives and Christians as an obstacle to global Islam.
If the conservative west was theoretically defeated and we disappeared, the left and the Muslims would certainly turn on each other. Each group probably thinks they can control the other group when the time comes.
As the war in Iran moves forward, I have little doubt that we will see an exploding insurgency from leftists and Muslims in the US which will force us to question our foundational concepts of a “free and open society”. We will be forced to acknowledge that these exalted ideas cannot be applied to everyone. Specifically, they cannot be applied to people who want to destroy us. At bottom, the “rights” of people waging war upon us do not matter.
The question is, can we survive such a war and come out the other side with a constitutional republic intact? I think we can, but such a system would have to parse out and separate from ideological groups that see the west as a target (the Founding Fathers would NEVER have tolerated an anti-west invasion). We must accept, finally, that we cannot coexist in freedom with such people.

A Day In The Life.
Up at 9:30a on Saturday, a mild, sunny, breezy, 51°F morning, I upped the heat, made coffee, fired-up the Win-7 Pentium HP Desktop to let its 32 million lines of code load, had breakfast, had a couple smokes in the garage and checked the leftover errands list. I scanned the weather and the rapidly-breaking news, tuned into the "CP Show" Podcast at 9, and relaxed for the morning.
I worked on taxes for a short while -- about 98.7% complete now -- skipped breakfast and had lunch, got ready for the day and tuned into local WSBA's Podcast of one of last week's "CP Shows", and took a Tramadol for the Sciatic and Neuropathy pain. With both front and back storm doors turned into screen doors (Larson Doors Co), and temps at 70°, it was a most pleasant day. The rest of the taxes can wait until tomorrow, or maybe Monday morning, when I take the packet south to my CPA;s office in Dallas town, after the stop at Devon's Cleaners.
By 6:30p, temps were dropping and I closed-up the condo, made dinner and watched Inc's pathetic offering for Sat/Sun "news", then switched to "Expedition Files", "Garage Squad" and "History's Deadliest" until 2a, and unplugged.
Up at 7:30a on Sunday, a clear, sunny, breezy 51° morning, no heat needed, I made coffee, scanned the news and weather, and organized the day. After getting ready for the day, I had lunch, and started the 1st load of laundry. I worked on taxes for most of the afternoon, and spent a lot of time on the back patio, in 80° temps. Colder weather is coming back, so I'm enjoying this now. I wish Sherry was here to enjoy it with me. She's healing, and it'll be a couple of weeks until things are back to normal.
I closed the condo around 6p, made dinner and watched the evening news. I switched to History's "American Pickers" and "History's Greatest Picks", until 1a. Lights out.
Awake and up at 8:45a on Monday, a heavily overcast, rainy, very cool 39° morning. I fired-up the furnace, made coffee, and tuned into the "CP Show". Monday, and I had 5 errands to do before a 2-4p grocery delivery, so I left at 12noon.
Traffic was light, and I made good time. Back home by 2, the grocery delivery arrived at 3, I put all the stuff away, had lunch and took a short 1hr nap. Temps were dropping quickly as the after waned, so I closed the condo, did some paperwork, which had piled-up on my desk. At 6p, the evening was on FNC, and after 15 mins, I switched to Discovery's "Iron Resurrection -- Refueled" until 1a. Lights out.
Up at 8:45a on Tuesday, a breezy, blue sky, sunny, 31° morning. I upped the heat, made coffee and scanned the news and weather websites. Sis called and said she'd be stopping by for a visit and would bring some Kielbasa, onions and potatoes, and fresh steamed Asparagus, and got here around 1p. We had a very nice 2hr visit, and my new Canon Printer, stopped working right after I'd printed out her 75th Birthday Card, which I've done for the past 35yrs. Swell.
After she left, I tried a couple of workarounds on the printer; no luck. I may have to go to a commercial print shop and get it all printed, but there is confidential and personal information in those files, and that musn't fall into anyone's possession.
I watched the news, and switched to History's "Curse of Oak Island" until... 3a! I'd fallen asleep in the TV area's 'comfy chair'. Again. OK, lights out.
Up at 9:30a on Wednesday, an overcast, cool 42°, I fired-up he furnace, made Krona Coffee, and... NO INTERNET. xfinity/CommieCast was MIA and the router/modem light was blinking red. Damn. I called to report the outages, and was told (by an AI idiot), that "they were working in my area to improve service, and that I'd have outages all day". Swell. No Net, email or TV.
I called CommieCast, and they admitted to working "in my area", and that there "might be disruptions", but assured me that service would be back by end of day. Sucks to be me. I had lunch, and a couple errands to do, so I busied myself with that, It was nice to sit outside on the back patio, as temps were in the mid-70s, but that didn't last long. I closed the condo, watched the evening news, had dinner and switched to "Iron Resurrection" and "History's Unexplained Mysteries", until 11:30p, and unplugged.
Up at 7a on Thursday, a sunny, blue sky, breezy, 58° morning, I fired-up the furnace, made new Kenya AA Coffee, and tuned into the news and weather. Ahhhhh, looks like xfinity/CommieCast is still monkeying with the wires again; service is interrupted. Swell. I did a couple of nearby errands, had lunch and enjoyed the 81° temps and cool breeze.
Day 54 in never-ending, Nancy Guthrie's kidnapping saga. She's been dead since day 4 or 5. Buried in a shallow grave in Mexico. I've said so since then. Sad.
After several aspirin and a Tramadol, the unrelenting R/S lower back/buttock/leg pain forced me onto the LR couch for a 2hr nap, which helped a little, but the pain did return late in the evening. I closed the condo, watched the evening news, had dinner, and watched "History's Greatest Mysteries" and "Iron Resurrection" until midnight, and bagged it for the night.
Up at 7:30a on Friday, an overcast, windy, rainy, warm 59° morning. No heat or breakfast, just fresh coffee and a thorough scan of the news and weather. I tuned into the "CP Show" until noon, and Sherry arrived around 1:15p. We had 4+ hours together, and she's recovering nicely from her bad fall, 2 weeks ago. She gets the 7 stitches out this week.
After she left, temps were dropping quickly, so I closed the condo, had dinner, watched the news and switched to Discovery's "Gold Rush" and "Gold Rush: Mine Rescue", until 11p. Lights out.
Today starts a new week, here in the "Journal", and it's clear excepot for Friday, as Sis will by for Easter Dinner. I'll call Serry over the weekend, to set-up a day with her before the Holiday.
Lights Out?
It’s not only darkest before the dawn, but the groupthink is murkiest, and the light at the end of the tunnel might be an explosion up your wazoo. Iran’s increasingly headless Revolutionary Guard (the IRGC) whirls in its gyre of martyrdom as the last traps are sprung under it. Tell the wide-eyed houris of paradise to primp for a fresh harvest of true believers.
Looks like Mr. Trump is not chickening-out, as his detractors like to insist. Looks like somebody is already turning off the juice around Tehran, likely the Israeils. It will be very hard soon enough for the headless IRGC to tell its body of psycho-killers what to do. Individual units are probably on their own now, anyway, wondering what the other units might be doing. . . might be thinking, while also, about now, the sore-beset, long-suffering, good-and-goshdarn pissed off, ordinary Persians will discover that nobody’s in charge, and maybe, at long last, it’s their turn to act, as the lights flicker out.
On the ground, in the apartments, the cafes, the offices, the grand bazaars of Tehran, Isfahan, Tabriz, and Shiraz life has already gotten super-impossible. Whatever’s left of the government just issued banknotes in the denomination of ten million rials, worth seven US dollars. Everybody there has plenty of money. Everyone is a millionaire, but they won’t be swanning around Fereshteh Street in top hats and monocles, shopping for Hermès, Louis Vuitton, and Rolex.
In actuality, nothing can function normally anymore when the currency is absolutely worthless, including the regular distribution of food and fuel, and you know from history that revolution is always only nine missing meals away. Something will have to give.
The American news media, especially The New York Times, remains implacably peevish over Operation Epic Fury. The news media remains locked in its own epic fury at Mr. Trump running the executive branch, because, uh, why? The tweets! The mystifying hair-do! The gold filigree plastered around the Oval Office! Ucchhh. . . ! It drives them batsh*t. They want the Iran op to fail because then Mr. Trump will fail. . . and then. . .? And then. . . ? You detect that maybe they haven’t thought that through exactly.
Perhaps the news media believe it’s unfair to deprive the Islamic State of a nuclear bomb and its arsenal of missiles and drones. (It can’t be that the news media are anti-war because they continue to be one hundred percent behind the Ukraine war. They don’t want that to end anytime soon because, uh, well, Russia!) In reality, the news media abhors decisive action and especially any change in the geopolitical status quo, and super-especially one that inch-by-inch reveals that the USA has interests that actually intersect with the interests of post-soviet Russia.
Like preserving Western Civ. Unlike the poufs, cucks, and bozos running Euroland who are busy throwing two thousand years of history under the wheels of Jihad, and racing with eyes-wide-shut into a neo-medieval future without heat, lights, industry, art, or square meals. Europe — Great Britain in particular — yearns for an epoch-ending spasm of war against Russia because. . .uh. . . because Putin (like, because Trump). You understand they are completely incapable of prosecuting such a war, since they lack armies, navies, and sufficient weapons, but they can’t stop nattering about it.
The US news media can’t accept the possibility that the US Military is proceeding systematically and by clear stages to disarm the IRGC crazies. What has the IRGC got left? Apparently, they have missile launchers embedded in urban neighborhoods, the old human shield routine, same as Hamas and Hezbollah. And spidey-hole missile silos in the desert, supposedly hard to detect beneath the shifting sands. Not to mention the “underground cities” as much as 500 meters deep where missiles and drones are made and stored. They are core parts of Iran’s military architecture. We know where most of them are. Let’s see how they work if the electricity goes out across Iran. Do they all have backup generators and diesel fuel to keep the generators running more than a few days?
President Trump issued an ultimatum over the weekend: Fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz to all shipping without threats, or the US would “hit and obliterate” Iran’s various power plants, “starting with the biggest one first.” As that occurs, expect breakdown in the Iranian ranks. Not every IRGC technician wants to be entombed down there in the underground gloaming. And what percentage of those defections will it take to wreck what little is left of the IRGC command structure? And what of Iran’s regular army, the Artesh. Let’s suppose there are some high-ranking officers among them, colonels, maybe a few generals, who are disenchanted with the IRGC and increasingly eager to see their country turn the page on forty-seven years of utter insanity.
Minutes before posting this blog, the White House announced that the US and Iran were negotiating “a complete and total resolution of our hostilities in the Middle East” and that the president would postpone his deadline for attacking Iranian power plants by five days. The diplomatic back-channels must be on fire now. Might this whole thing almost be over?
