Federal authorities say a high-level Muslim Pentagon aide, who led a campaign to
silence a Pentagon intelligence analyst for taking a hard line against Islam, is
running an "influence operation" on behalf of U.S. Muslim groups fronting for
the radical Muslim Brotherhood.
Hesham H. Islam, a special assistant to Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England, recently criticized Maj. Stephen Coughlin, one of the military's leading authorities on Islamic war doctrine, for making the connection between the religion of Islam and terrorism.
After Islam lodged complaints, Coughlin's contract with the chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff at the Pentagon was not renewed.
Islam also was upset with briefings Coughlin recently prepared for the U.S. military warning that major U.S. Muslim groups were fronting for the Muslim Brotherhood, a worldwide jihadist movement based in Egypt.
Islam, who was born and raised in Egypt, is heavily involved with one of the groups the Islamic Society of North America, which U.S. prosecutors last year named as a member of the U.S. branch of the Muslim Brotherhood and an unindicted co-conspirator in a major terror-funding case.
Islam has persuaded his boss, England, to conduct various outreach with ISNA, including hosting the group's leaders in the Pentagon and speaking at its annual convention.

State House Proselytism
By Janet LevyFrontPageMagazine.com Friday, February 01, 2008
The cultural traditions and values of American society originate from the
Judeo-Christian heritage of our Founding Fathers. They pledged allegiance to
“one nation under God,” with the Creator as the source of our inalienable civil
rights and liberties. In that spirit, Congressional invocations by clergy are a
time-honored ritual from the birth of the American republic to the present.
Public recognition and celebrations of the role of religion in helping establish
our precious freedoms have also long been part of American public life. But now,
those traditions are under attack from militant Islamists who have, under the
guise of political and religious acceptance, steadily advanced their own
messages with the goal of undermining our status as a nation of free individuals
and the intent of the Founders to insure liberty and justice for all.Read the article here.
