“Muslims Against Crusades” (MAC) — a radical Islamic website that vows to “expose the enemies of Islam” — featured a front page article on Monday titled “Is the Assassination of President Obama Legal?”
The article’s closing paragraphs pose that very question to “the West,” asking if the president’s death would be “justified” given his “horrific track record against Islam and Muslims.”
The author then references the year then-President John F. Kennedy was assassinated by asking how many people would want to carry out the “horrors of 1963” all over again:
What we mean by this is, if the President of America were to be caught off-guard in Washington or St Louis, would his death be justified given his new criteria in light of his horrific track record against Islam and Muslims and his own confessions?
If the answer is no, then we ask, why not? And if the answer is, yes, then we ask how many people would be likely to want to repeat the horrors of 1963 against this very evil man?
MAC, a British, radical Islamic group that believes its adherents are not “obliged to obey the law of the land in whatever country they reside,” was founded in 2010 by Abu Assadullah. Notorious cleric Anjem Choudary, who once called for the execution of the Pope, is also associated with MAC.
You might also recall Choudary when his Islam4UK — another pro-Jihadist group that is also on the U.K’s terror watch list – protested Dutch MP Geert Wilders’ visit to the U.K.. Protesters carryed banners that reportedly read: ”Shariah is the solution, freedom go to hell“ and ”Geert Wilders deserves Islamic punishment”
In 2011, MAC proposed that Muslims set up independent emirates across the U.K. and that each emirate operate under Sharia law exclusively.
Now, MAC’s latest “crusade” appears to be against President Obama.
The article, which threatens that Obama is “treading on very thin ice” accuses the president of murdering two of Islam’s most influential men — Osama bin Laden and radical cleric Anwar al-Awlaki. The author dubs Obama a “very evil man” who justifies “murder, rape and torture.”
In fact, the image for the article features Obama with a red target on his forehead, blood spatter behind him, against the backdrop of bin Laden and al-Awlaki’s faces.
This, combined with what the author asserts are the Obama administration’s “cowardly drone strikes” has “shattered any hope of reconciliation” between Islamists and the United States.
The article, in its entirety, can be read below:
President Barack Obama is treading on very thin ice. In the space of less than half a year he has proceeded to murder what are probably two of the most influential Muslim men in modern day history: Sheikh Usamah bin Laden (rh) and the US citizen Sheikh Anwar al Awlaki (rh).
His brazen attacks and cowardly drone strikes have shattered any hope of reconciliation, for he has made it clear: America is out to shoot and kill and is taking no prisoners. No negotiations, no rule of law, no due process – nothing.
Human rights and justice have lost all relevance in Obama’s war, as assassination takes over as his preferred weapon of choice. He has managed to convince the whole world that he is right, that murder, rape and torture can be justified as long as you can be labelled as the enemy. Are his actions to be taken as an example for other US citizens to imitate?In light of this we would like to introduce a new question into the psyche of the West by asking: “Is the assassination of President Barack Obama now legal?” What we mean by this is, if the President of America were to be caught off-guard in Washington or St Louis, would his death be justified given his new criteria in light of his horrific track record against Islam and Muslims and his own confessions?
If the answer is no, then we ask, why not? And if the answer is, yes, then we ask how many people would be likely to want to repeat the horrors of 1963 against this very evil man?
Readers are then presented with two U.K.-based phone numbers for media and general enquiries. The rest of the MAC website features information on Islam — including the topics of jihad, sharia law — in addition to other anti-West messages such as, “breaking the foundations of Western civilizations.”
It goes without saying that “Muslims Against Crusades” is probably on just about every intel-community watch-list in the Western world.
