Black Muslim lawyer Khalid Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour recently made
news when it was revealed that he was a patron of Barack Obama and
recommended him for admission to Harvard Law School in 1988. Back in
the 1960s, al-Mansour, whose “slave name” was then Don Warden, was
deeply involved in Bay Area racial politics as founder of a group
called the African American Association. A close personal adviser to
Huey Newton and Bobby Seale, al-Mansour helped the pair establish the
Black Panther Party but later broke with them when they entered
coalitions with white radical groups. After becoming a Muslim, al-
Mansour found not only an ideological justification for his racism but
also a political purpose. That was, in the words of a memorandum
produced by the Muslim Brotherhood and seized by the FBI as part of
its probe of the Holy Land Foundation, to “eliminate and destroy the
Western civilization from within.” Many black racists like al-Mansour
are key figures in this “stealth” jihad, whose prime recruiting
grounds are the U.S. prisons and mosques where inmates and worshippers
alike are taught to embrace a radical Islam engaged in an apocalyptic
battle against America.
Al-Mansour met Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal in the mid-1970s and
formed a relationship that led to al-Mansour’s hiring as attorney to
King Saud. He has since been an adviser to Saudi billionaires who fund
the stealth jihad and spread Wahhabi extremism in America.

Other black racist Islamists play less glamorous but equally
significant roles as Imams at major mosques in the U.S.; as chaplains
in prisons and jails; and as radical figures who haunt American higher
education by advising and speaking for organizations such as the
Muslim Students Association (MSA) on campuses across the nation.
Whatever audience they target, they speak a lingua franca of anti-
white, anti-Semitic, anti-American hatred—all in the name of Allah.

And why is it that black racists such as al-Mansour constitute a
significant proportion of these hate mongers? In large part, it is
because blacks have been specifically and aggressively targeted for
recruitment by leaders of the worldwide jihad, just as they were
targeted for recruitment by the Communist Party USA in the 1920s.
Black grievance, combined with the evangelism of the Nation of Islam
over the last seventy years, has established an audience for the
ideology of hate.

The prison, as the last bastion of racism and racial separatism, has
become a prime recruitment center for radical Islam. Al Qaeda training
manuals found by U.S. troops in Afghanistan reveal that America’s
black prisoners, who constitute nearly half of the nation’s two
million inmates, are viewed by terrorists as a potentially bountiful
source of new jihadi recruits. The immensely wealthy Saudi government,
which has made the propagation of radical Islam in America a top
priority, has shipped tens of thousands of copies of the Koran to U.S.
jails in recent years. Through the National Islamic Prison Foundation,
Saudi money finances an extensive “prison outreach” program that seeks
to convert inmates to Islam and to anti-Americanism. Prison chaplains
are typically Wahhabis (practitioners of Saudi Arabia’s most extreme,
fundamentalist form of Islam) who have been certified and trained as
religious officials by either the Islamic Society of North America or
the Graduate School of Islamic and Social Sciences, both of which are
currently under federal investigation for ties to terrorism. Islam
expert Stephen Schwartz states that “radical Muslim chaplains … acting
in coordination to impose an extremist agenda … have gained a monopoly
over Islamic religious activities in American state, federal, and city
prisons and jails.” Some 135,000 inmates convert to Islam annually,
and almost all of these converts are African Americans.

Focusing their efforts and fortunes not only on prisons, the Saudis
also have spent many millions of dollars funding a majority of
America’s mosques, and have dispatched Imams from a number of Middle
Eastern nations to settle in the U.S. as missionaries. Faheem Shuaibe,
an Imam at a predominately black mosque in California, says that Saudi
Arabia has set up “a very deliberate recruitment process … trying to
find black Muslims who had a real potential for Islamic learning and
also for submission to their agenda” of Wahhabi extremism. According
to Islam scholar Daniel Pipes, there are approximately “a million
American-born converts to Islam (and their descendants) in the United
States and most of them have shifted allegiances away from their
native country.” Pakistani religious leaders Sami ul-Haq and Fazrul
Rehman predict that “in the next 10 years, Americans will wake up to
the existence of an Islamic army in their midst—an army of jihadis who
will force America to abandon imperialism and listen to the voice of
Allah.”

The racial composition of this jihadi army is, of course, influenced
by the Saudi targeting of African Americans. According to Reza Safa,
an authority on Wahhabism’s spread throughout the world, “as many as
90 percent of American converts to Islam are black.”

The somewhat shadowy Khalid Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour embodies the
marriage of racism and Islamism that characterizes the stealth jihad.
Using his legal training to leverage his standing in the Islamic
world, al-Mansour is a black nationalist and an outspoken hater of the
United States, Israel, and white people generally. In recent years he
has accused the U.S. of plotting a “genocide” designed “to remove 15
million black people, considered disposable, of no relevance, value or
benefit to the American society.” He has told fellow blacks that
“whatever you do to [white people], they deserve it, God wants you to
do it and that’s when you cut out the nose, cut out the ears, take
flesh out of their body, don’t worry because God wants you to do it.”
Alleging further that Palestinians in Israel “are being brutalized
like savages,” he accuses the Jews of “stealing the land the same way
the Christians stole the land from the Indians in America.”

Other black racists who echo al-Mansour’s ideas include Imam Abdul
Alim Musa, founder and director of the As-Sabiqun movement, which aims
to “enable Islam to take complete control of … the lives of all human
beings on Earth.” In 2004 the San Francisco Bay View described Musa as
“one of the highest-ranking Islamic leaders in the Black community,
nationwide and specifically in the Islamic movement.” Born in Arkansas
as Clarence Reams, Musa was raised in Oakland, California. During the
1960s, he embraced the violent ideology of the Black Panthers.  He
went on to become a leading cocaine-exporter in Colombia, a crime for
which he eventually was incarcerated. While in prison, he converted to
Islam and took his present name. An avid supporter of Iran’s
lateAyatollah Khomeini, Musa calls for Islam to “take over America.”


He praises Muslim suicide bombers as “heroes” who courageously “strike
at the heart of Zionism.” He predictsthat “this way of life known as
Islam will dominate all other ways of life.” He lauds those who seek
to honor Allah by means of violence. He says that America holds values
and attitudes consistent with those of the Ku Klux Klan. He has
praised Osama bin Laden, Hezbollah, and Hamas. And he holds that the
9/11 terrorist attacks were orchestrated jointly by the U.S. and
Israeli governments in order to provide a pretext for waging war
against Islam.

Warith Deen Umar (formerly Wallace Gene Marks), who was repeatedly
incarcerated as a teenager, is a retired Muslim cleric who spent two
decades helping to run New York’s Islamic prison program. A confidante
of Nation of Islam kingpin Louis Farrakhan, Umarpersonally recruited
and trained dozens of chaplains. With help from the Saudi government,
he brought that country’s fanatical brand of Islam to New York’s
Muslim inmates. Hebelieves that the 9/11 hijackers should be honored
as martyrs, and that the U.S. risks further terrorist attacks because
it oppresses Muslims around the world. Viewing black prisoners as
potential soldiers in such attacks, Umar says, “Prisons are a powder
keg. The question is the ignition.” He wrote in an unplublished
memoir, “Even Muslims who say they are against terrorism secretly
admire and applaud” the hijackers. The Koran, he added, does not
condemn terrorism against oppressors of Muslims, even if innocent
people are killed in the process. “This is the sort of teaching they
don’t want in prison,” he said. “But this is what I’m doing.”

Sheikh Khalid Yasin is a U.S.-born, Atlanta-based Muslim convert (and
a Malcolm X disciple) who has been a popular guest speaker at Muslim
Students Association (MSA) events across the United States. He
candidly states that America one day will be governed by Sharia
(Islamic Law); that Muslims should steadfastly refuse to become
friends with non-Muslims; that 9/11 was orchestrated by the U.S. and/
or Israel; that homosexuals should be killed in accordance with
Koranic mandates; and that AIDS was invented at a U.S. government lab
for the purpose of killing nonwhites around the world.

Former Nation of Islam member Amir-Abdel Malik-Ali is a black Imam in
Oakland who also has become a familiar figure on U.S. campuses where
he speaks for the MSA. A passionate supporter of Hamas and Hezbollah,
he endorses suicide bombings as a legitimate “resistance” tactic of
Muslim “martyrs.” He calls for “an Islamic revolution” that will lead
to the creation of “an Islamic state” where “Allah controls every place
—the home, the classroom, the science lab, the halls of Congress.” He
maintains that “the Zionist Jews” were responsible for the Danish
cartoon controversy that sparked Muslim riots around the world in
2006. He accuses the “apartheid State of Israel” of carrying out a
“holocaust” and a “genocide” against the Palestinian people. Referring
to Jews as “new Nazis” and “a bunch of straight-up punks,” he warns
Jews: “[Y]our days are numbered…. We will fight you until we are
either martyred or until we are victorious.”

Muhammad al-Asi is another black preacher of hate who is frequently
invited to speak at anti-Israel rallies hosted by the MSA and its
allied organizations. Al-Asi became radicalized by the 1979 Iranian
Revolution, and to this day he remains a great admirer of the late
Ayatollah Khomeini. Advocating an “Islamic World Order,” he predicts
that Muslims ultimately “will deal the deathblow” to Jews; that Jews
“have a psychosis … that is unable to co-exist equally and brotherly
[sic] with other human beings”; and that the 9/11 attacks were
actually carried out by Israeli Mossad agents seeking to “criminalize
Muslims.”

Such are the commitments of the figures who have become the spearpoint
of the Islamic jihad in America. Moving out from the hidden corners of
American society into universities and other public places, these
preachers of hate have made racism and Islamism into a potent toxin
that they release under the cover of diversity and religious
pluralism.
