David Horowitz's "Islamofascism Awareness Week" is back.....
from TPM Muckraker:


Seems Like Old Times
04.09.08 -- 9:27AM By Josh Marshall

It seems like only a few months ago we were celebrating David Horowitz's Islamofascism Awareness Week with heavily subsidized and poorly attended events on campuses around the country. But the October's IAW was such a good fundraising tool he's decided to make this week Islamofascism Awareness Week too.

“Stop the Genocide”

(April 7-11, 2008)

From October 22 to October 26, 2007, students on more than 100 campuses across the country hosted speakers, put on panels, conducted sit-ins and showed documentary films designed to alert campus communities to the global threat from Islamo-Fascism, and to protest the oppression of women in Islam. This spring, during the week of April 7-11, we will hold another week of consciousness-raising events. The purpose of this week and the campaign leading up to it will be: 1) To highlight the genocidal agendas of the Islamo-fascist crusade; and 2) To make the public aware of the “soft jihad” – the domestic networks that fund and provide political support for the agendas of the jihad, including its armies of terror.

The core of the jihad is its intention to conquer and force into submission all religions and cultures which are not its own. It has absorbed the Nazi-virus of Jew-hatred and seeks as its first goal the obliteration of the Jewish state, but its agendas include the obliteration of Christian communities and all non-Muslim cultures as well.

The focus of our spring campaign will be the Declaration Against Genocide, which we will ask campus groups to sign. Specifically we are asking all campus groups to repudiate the genocidal passage within Islam’s sacred texts which reads: "The prophet, prayer and peace be upon him, said: ‘The time will not come until Muslims will fight the Jews and kill them; until the Jews hide behind rocks and trees, which will cry: O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, come on and kill him!’" (Sahih Muslim book 41, no. 6985)

Christians have distanced themselves from far less ominous passages in their religious tradition because of the terrible consequences that have flowed from misguided beliefs.

The terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah are Islamic parties who have dedicated themselves to the destruction of the Jews. We are asking campus groups to condemn Hamas and Hezbollah as terrorist organizations and to repudiate their Jew-hatred, including the Hamas charter which says: “Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it.” Signers of the Declaration will also be asked to condemn and repudiate the Iranian dictator Mahmoud Ahmadinejad who has said “The accomplishment of a world without America and Israel is both possible and feasible."

These are hateful doctrines that threaten the lives not only of Jews, but of Christians and secularists as well. While Israel is condemned as “the Little Satan,” America is targeted as “the Great Satan” – the incarnation of evil. The genocidal hatred of Islamo-fascists is aimed at all Americans. ......(more)
