My friend Glenn recently told me about THIS rabid godmocker, which has led me to investigate the recent propagation of radical communism all over the world. Here is example one: A Communist Muslim! 
Anti-islam muslims? 
Okay, I'm lost now.
Popular Canadian ‘Marxist’ Muslim: Obama Has ‘White Man’s Guilt’
Canadian political activist, author, columnist and practicing Muslim Tarek Fatah has been described as a liberal Marxist who stands firmly opposed to radicalism Islam. While he disagrees vehemently with American conservatives when it comes to the economy, he may surprise you when it comes to fighting radical Islam.
Recently, The Blaze interviewed Fatah, delving deeply into his views about President Barack Obama, the American left and the ongoing need to fight extremism.
You may recall our coverage last year of his address at Canada’s Ideacity conference. During his speech, the practicing Muslim bravely proclaimed that “the religion of Islam is being used as a tool by a fascist force.” Additionally, he made some bold claims about the American government.
“Instead of bringing victory over the fascist forces of the Muslim Brotherhood, we now recognize that their infiltration is right up to the American White House, but we can’t say that,” he proclaimed. “Today we are fighting another idea of Islamo-fascism that has shut our mouths and we can’t speak because we’re too scared that someone may turn around and call us a racist. And mind you, everyday as I speak, a few dozen Muslims would have been killed by now by these Jihadis.”
In his interview with The Blaze, Fatah doubled down on these words, leaving no stone unturned in ensuring that those paying attention understand the horrific implications of radical Islamism. Fighting extremism, he said, shouldn’t be a partisan undertaking.
THE LEFT’S FAILURES
“During the entire Cold War you didn’t have to be liberal or conservative to recognize a threat communism was [posing],” he said. “It’s a pity that the new sort of fascism that America — the West faces — has not produced some sort of recognition in liberal circles of this…the left in the U.S. has betrayed every single position that they’ve ever stood for.”
When it comes to addressing specific policy issues, the activist claims the left has simply become ideologically-driven. When a conservative takes a position, for instance, liberals, he claims, automatically adopt the opposing view. In essence, the commentator maintains that such a mentality leaves American liberals in a position where they are “shooting themselves in the foot” and potentially moving in a direction that could be dangerous to the nation.
Fatah also told The Blaze about his view that America, despite leftist claims, is a beacon of democracy. The U.S., he believes, is a country that provides more “social justice” (i.e. senior care, free education, trade union rights and numerous other freedoms) than practically any other “society on earth.”
FIGHTING ISLAMIC EXTREMISM
Among the other issues that Fatah has been passionate about is the ongoing quest to combat radical Islam. Despite his leftist economic views, the commentator is intent about the West’s need to stand up and strongly resists extremism.
Just as he did during his Ideacity address, Fatah condemned the treatment of radical Islam in the West. Rather than confronting the issue as they should, he lamented liberals’ political correctness that, often times, dictates how the issue is discussed.
The Muslim Brotherhood — a group that is re-emerging and capturing power in nations across the world — is one that he has heavily criticized. In fact, he sees the radical cohort as a major danger that must be rationally examined and combated. Recently, the group has emerged as a powerful force in Egypt, Tunisia, Syria and Libya, among other countries. Dealing with opposition to the Brotherhood is particularly difficult among members of Fatah’s own community.
“Anyone opposed to the Muslim Brotherhood in the Muslim community is shut out,” he said. “If you’re critical of the NYPD, if you’re critical of American policies, you can be invited to the White House by White House officials but if you are supportive of American values and the separation of religion and state and an opponent of the Muslim Brotherhood you’re shut out. That’s the reality.”
“[The West] has to launch a very ideological war and weed out all the academics in the American universities who support the Muslim Brotherhood and have taken over all of the Islamic studies departments,” Fatah contended. “And Islamism 101 should be a mandatory course in Georgetown University, in Howard and in all the Ivy League schools and anti-Muslim Brotherhood academics should be invited to teach.”
Allowing such pervasive ideals to enter the university system leads to indoctrination and a diminished ability to properly alert young people and adults, alike, to the worldly dangers that exist.
“We’ve ended up [in] a situation that the only people teaching American diplomats about how to fight Islamism are the ones who have sympathy with our enemy,” he said. ”I keep repeating one thing — you can fight Malaria by killing mosquitoes. You’ve got to drain the swamps.”
THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD & THE WHITE HOUSE
As for the Obama White House, Fatah explained that, though it may be unintentional and/or sophisticated work by the Muslim Brotherhood, the White House may be near one of these swamps. The Brotherhood, he said, has a powerful ability to embed itself in political structures.
“Let me put it this way, it’s one of the most secretive organizations that infiltrates like the Communist Party…the communists used to work that way,” Fatah explained. “You’d have cells, you’d have hierarchy. You cannot take the question to the top. There are multiple levels of membership. And then you get into the inner circle. And so this is a vast fascist organization that will create bloodshed only when it suits itself.”
Fatah maintains that past examples — including The Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development case — show how the Brotherhood’s code of conduct operates. The group’s goals, he maintains, are to destroy any institution where people have power over the public law.
“It’s an ideological war,” he said. “You cannot do this without having Muslims that are anti-Islamists take the lead.”
