Obama backs down - In the face of overwhelming opposition from the American people and from Congress to his proposed military strike on Syria, Obama put on hold his plans to assist Islamist rebels. Meanwhile, his schizophrenic Administration continues to fight Islamist rebels in some civil wars while supporting them in others. It is very difficult to tell who's side Obama is on.
Obama appoints anti-Semite to religious freedom body - Barack Hussein Obama has quietly appointed pollster James Zogby to become a member of the U.S. Commission For International Religious Freedom (USCIRF). Zogby is founder and president of the Arab American Institute and a co-founder of the Palestine Human Rights Campaign as well as the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee. He is a defender of the Muslim Brotherhood and is associated with anti-Semitism. Read more

There was no comment from the White House. President Assad of Syria demanded that the United States stop hostilities to allow his government to dismantle chemical weapons.

Former VP Al Gore's gateway to Islamist propaganda - Al-Jazeera is supportive of both the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas, as the article below describes. And with plenty of money, the organization is buying up a lot of talent, many with Irish and German sounding names, to disguise the fact that it is an outlet for radical Islam. "Liberal" Al Gore took tens of millions from Former Qatari emir Sheik Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani and from the Qatari government in return for handing over his cable network. Read more

Congressman says no funds for atheist "chaplain" - Congressman John Fleming (R-LA) is working to create an amendment to the defense budget bill that will prevent any atheist or humanist chaplains in the military. According to Fleming: "When it comes to the idea of an atheist chaplain, which is an oxymoron - it's self-contradictory - what you're really doing is now saying that we're going to replace true chaplains with non-chaplain chaplains.Read more
No tax dollars for jihadists - The Religious Freedom Coalition has begun an online petition asking congressmen to speak out against any funding, military or otherwise, to jihadists anywhere in the world.

Report From Washington - March 1, 2013
Editor: William J. Murray
In this issue: The Sequester Scare, part 2 / Direct aid to terrorists / See no Saudi evil / Congressman speaks out on Saudi evil / Muslim congressman spokesman for racist group / Prayer Caucus fights abortion mandate / 20th anniversary of first WTC attack / UN: Turkey's PM calls Zionism a "crime against humanity" / Turkey: How democracy died / Nigeria: 16 die during phoney Muslim cease fire / Join me in a fact finding mission to Israel
The Presidency
The Sequester Scare part 2- At midnight last night the sequester took effect, and the United States did not collapse as President Obama said it would. The military has not been shut down and there are no five hour delays at airports. Obama even released hundreds of convicted felons illegally in the United States to scare the American people into backing his tax increases. None of it worked. Why? There are no real cuts in spending in the sequester. The cuts were made only to the proposed increases in spending for 2012.
Direct aid to terrorists - Unhappy that the black flag of jihad is not flying over Damascus, the Obama Administration is now considering direct military aid to the two year old jihadist rebellion against the secular government of Syria. Obama claims the "sequester" has destroyed the readiness of our military, but at the same time says he can somehow find tens of millions of dollars to arm the "rebels" in Syria who are trying to overthrow the secular government there.
See no Saudi evil - Last week I reported on the arrests of 53 Ethiopian Christians in Saudi Arabia for the "crime" of praying in private. The White House seems to approve of the arrests of the Christians, while condemning the arrest of an anarchist band in Russia after they defiled the altar of a church. I wrote a lengthy op-ed on the Administration's support of intolerance and evil in Saudi Arabia which has appeared in several places including WND.COM. See my column here
Congress
Congressman speaks out on Saudi evil - So far only one lawmaker has spoken up about the latest abuse of Christians by the Saudi Arabia monarchy/dictatorship. Rep. Jeff Fortenberry, (R-NE), who sits on the Caucus on Religious Minorities in the Middle East said, "Nations that wish to be a part of the responsible nations of the world must see the protection of religious freedom and the principles of reason as an essential part of the duty of the state." Read more
Muslim congressman spokesman for racist group - Congressman Keith Ellison refuses to explain his association with the anti-Semitic, anti-white Nation of Islam. Newspaper reports from the 1990's indicate Ellison was an activist for Louis Farrakhan's Nation of Islam, even speaking on behalf of the controversial group as a "representative." During his first campaign for Congress, Ellison claimed he had never been a Nation of Islam member. Read more
Prayer Caucus fights abortion mandate - The Congressional Prayer Caucus, founded by Rep. Randy Forbes, has recently filed an amicus brief with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit in support of Hobby Lobby's challenge to the abortion mandate in Obamacare. The abortion mandate forces Christian-run businesses like Hobby Lobby to provide abortion, contraceptives, and sterilization resources to their employees. Read more

Report From Washington - December 7, 2012
URGENT: Under the orders of President Obama the Department of Defense is blocking "anti-Islamic" Internet sites from being views on base even those who simple report on Islamic atrocities. Sign this official White House petition now to stop this outrage.
In this issue: Obama demands more power than any American president has ever had / Paul loves Obama for robbing Peter / White House submission to international blasphemy laws / America can't survive the cures coming out of Congress / One bright spot in actions of Congressional Prayer Caucus / New Chairman's Report by William J Murray /Did Franklin Roosevelt describe the Egypt of today? / A world of jihad - an attack every five hours / Al Jazeera owner sends man to life in jail for criticizing him
The Presidency
Obama demands more power - Barack Obama is demanding that Congress permanently give up its authority over raising the debt ceiling. He is demanding as a part of "negotiating" with the Congress, that a law be passed to allow him to increase the debt ceiling of the government at any time he deems it necessary. Giving this power to Obama will be "crossing the Rubicon" and there will be no return to congressional control of the Presidency. When Obama robs Peter to pay Paul, he can always count on the vote of Paul - This statement was obviously proven in the election of Barack Obama, who spent four years expanding the ranks of dependency by using every avenue of government possible, from food stamps to mortgage reductions.

Official submission to Islam - Round three of the "Istanbul Process" opens today, December 3, and runs through Wednesday, at Canada House, in London, hosted by the U.K. and Canada. The Istanbul Process is Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's major transnational law initiative, undertaken in partnership with the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). It was established last year to "implement" measures against speech and expression that negatively "stereotype[s]" Islam and Muslims, with a particular emphasis on enacting them in the West. Read more
Congress
America can't survive the cure - For years I have referred to the Democrats as the Tax and Spend Party and the Republicans as the Borrow and Spend Party. It seems that they are now merging into the Tax and Borrow to Spend Party. All solutions coming from Washington are a disaster for the future generations of this nation. Cutting federal spending enough to eliminate the debt means massive job loss and a depression. Raising taxes to cover the huge spending deficits means massive job loss and recession. Continuing to borrow trillions of dollars each year means inflation that will eventually destroy the wealth of the nation causing massive job loss and recession.
Congress at a stand still - The debt crisis and the "fiscal cliff" have brought the Congress to a stand still. Virtually no action is being taken on important issues such as the deterioration of American power. Egypt having sentenced American citizens to die for blasphemy is being ignored, as is the continued threat to our ally Israel.
Prayer Caucus year in review - One of the few bright spots on Capitol Hill is the Prayer Caucus headed by Congressman Randy Forbes (R-VA). During 2012 the Prayer Caucus opposed the removal of a reference to "God" from an Air Force logo; voted to add the D-day Prayer to the World War II Memorial; opposed efforts to remove a memorial cross honoring military veterans, and much more. Read the full review of the Prayer Caucus work in 2012 here.

Report From Washington - May 5, 2012
In this issue, a special report: William J. Murray reports this week from New York City. This update centers on National Day of Prayer activities on Capitol Hill and Murray's appearance on the Mike Huckabee TV Show
National Day of Prayer Special Report
On the National Day of Prayer
my morning began with a prayer group on the Supreme Court Plaza. Our
group actually had permission to pray, as long as our group did not
constitute a "demonstration." The line between the two is very ill
defined. I was joined by several activists on Capitol Hill including
Peggy Nienaber of Faith and Action
as well as Rev. Patrick Mahoney. After praying for the nation we had
the opportunity to have breakfast at the Supreme Court cafeteria where
we joined together in saying grace before eating.
The National Day of Prayer was changed to the first Thursday in May during President Ronald Reagan's last year in office in 1988. The original law, signed by President Harry Truman, did not specify a date which caused some confusion over several decades.
This past Thursday thousands of public prayer meetings were held across the nation including one here on Capitol Hill. The national meeting was held in the Caucus Room of the Cannon House Office Building just a block from the Capitol Building itself. For the sixth year in a row the host for the National Day of Prayer in the Capitol complex was Congressman Robert Aderholt of Alabama. In my capacity as chairman of Government Is Not God -PAC, I endorsed and helped to elect Robert Aderholt to Congress back in 1996. He has been working to further family values since his election.
Also present during the three hours of prayer in the Caucus Room were Congressman Randy Forbes of Virginia and his wife, Shirley. Congressman Forbes, also elected with the help of Government Is Not God - PAC back in 2001, founded the Congressional Prayer Caucus which has 105 members. Each week upon their return to the Hill the members of the Prayer Caucus meet in Room 219 in the Capitol Building itself to pray. A national movement in State houses for prayer caucuses has begun following Congressman Forbes' example.
At this year's prayer meeting Congressman Forbes shared miraculous events which occurred in his life as a result of prayer, including the survival of his first child despite doctors telling him that he and his wife needed to say their goodbyes to their newborn son.
The overall chairman of the National Day of Prayer event in Washington each year is Shirley Dobson, the wife of Dr. James Dobson. The military and every branch of government was represented -- except for the Administration -- as President Obama did not send a representative. One of the highlights of the day was the Azula Pacific University all men's choir which sang several traditional hymns a cappella.
After the National Day of Prayer meeting which lasted from 9:00 AM to noon, I attended a special lunch with Congressman Louie Gohmert of Texas for the International Israel Allies Caucus. Congressman Gohmert spoke of his most recent trip to Israel and his meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu. (Note: It was Congressman Gohmert who initiated the recommendation that led to Speaker Boehner inviting Prime Minister Netanyahu to speak to a joint session of Congress in 2010.) The congressman spoke of the continued need for prayer, but also reminded us that while Israel is mentioned as being part of End Time prophecy, the United States is not. He said nations that do not stand with Israel should not expect their God to protect them.
At 2:00 PM on the National Day of Prayer I made my way to a meeting at the Capitol Visitors' Center (CVC) which sits below the actual Capitol Building grounds. While most people believe this is merely a tourist entrance since the shooting at Tom Delay's office some years ago, it is actually an official business entrance as well. Also unknown to tourists is the fact that the CVC has both House and Senate meeting rooms that can be reserved only by Members of Congress for their use or the use of their constituents for special events. Full catering service is available.
Congressman Todd Akin of Missouri had arranged a conference room to be used by several groups led by Rev. Rick Scarborough of Texas for "40 Days to Save America." This is a prayer and fasting campaign to begin on September 28th and run through Election Day, November 6th. The object is to pray and fast for America to turn back to a godly path and to elect godly leaders.

Each week upon their return to the Hill the members of the Prayer Caucus meet in Room 219 in the Capitol Building itself to pray. A national movement in State houses for prayer caucuses has begun following Congressman Forbes' example.
At this year's prayer meeting Congressman Forbes shared miraculous events which occurred in his life as a result of prayer, including the survival of his first child despite doctors telling him that he and his wife needed to say their goodbyes to their newborn son.
The overall chairman of the National Day of Prayer event in Washington each year is Shirley Dobson, the wife of Dr. James Dobson. The military and every branch of government was represented -- except for the Administration -- as President Obama did not send a representative. One of the highlights of the day was the Azula Pacific University all men's choir which sang several traditional hymns a cappella.
After the National Day of Prayer meeting which lasted from 9:00 AM to noon, I attended a special lunch with Congressman Louie Gohmert of Texas for the International Israel Allies Caucus. Congressman Gohmert spoke of his most recent trip to Israel and his meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu. (Note: It was Congressman Gohmert who initiated the recommendation that led to Speaker Boehner inviting Prime Minister Netanyahu to speak to a joint session of Congress in 2010.) The congressman spoke of the continued need for prayer, but also reminded us that while Israel is mentioned as being part of End Time prophecy, the United States is not. He said nations that do not stand with Israel should not expect their God to protect them.
At 2:00 PM on the National Day of Prayer I made my way to a meeting at the Capitol Visitors' Center (CVC) which sits below the actual Capitol Building grounds. While most people believe this is merely a tourist entrance since the shooting at Tom Delay's office some years ago, it is actually an official business entrance as well. Also unknown to tourists is the fact that the CVC has both House and Senate meeting rooms that can be reserved only by Members of Congress for their use or the use of their constituents for special events. Full catering service is available.
Congressman Todd Akin of Missouri had arranged a conference room to be used by several groups led by Rev. Rick Scarborough of Texas for "40 Days to Save America." This is a prayer and fasting campaign to begin on September 28th and run through Election Day, November 6th. The object is to pray and fast for America to turn back to a godly path and to elect godly leaders.
THE MIKE HUCKABEE SHOW
I
was scheduled to appear the Fox News Channel's Mike Huckabee Show this
weekend, however, while on the train to New York I received a call that I
had been "bumped" for a breaking news segment on pro-life Chinese
activist Chen Guangcheng
who was forced out of the U.S. Embassy by Secretary of State Clinton
when she arrived in China to promote the sale of more U.S. Debt.
(Without Chinese loans the United States would be forced to disband the
entire military.) Because I was in transit to New York the decision was
made to tape my segment which centers on my book, My Life Without God,
and show it at a later date. The taping will still be done in front of a
live audience, and I will post the date of the actual show on the
book's Facebook page as soon as it is known. You can help get the word out about the book my giving the page a "like."
My previous radio interview with Mike Huckabee is still online. Listen to it here. Please consider buying a copy of the book for your local library or a Christian school.

Report From Washington - April 20, 2012
The Boko Haram and the State Department Terror List / State refuses to condemn Boko Haram despite mass killings / Congressmen defend the Cross at Camp Pendleton / Military religious Freedom Protection Ac to be voted one in Congress / Muslim group says that Muslims should not serve in law enforcement / Air Force says no Bibles needed in hotel rooms / UK "Lord" offers bounty on Bush and Obama / Boko Haram kills more people this week / Egypt TV says Egyptian Christians are traitors
PRESIDENCY
BOKO HARAM AND THE TERROR LIST - The State Department maintains a list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations. The Boko Haram, which murders Christians almost daily, is not on that list. Despite major bombings of churches in Nigeria on Christmas and Easter the Obama Administration's State Department continues to claim that the Islamist Boko Haram is "not motivated by religion." This week I met with congressmen and Senators to request a letter of demand to Obama's Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, that the Boko Haram be added to the Foreign Terrorist Organizations list. I will keep you informed.
STATE DEPARTMENT BLOCKS EFFORTS TO CONDEMN BOKO HARAM - The House Subcommittee on Homeland Security has urged that Boko Haram be designated a terrorist group but Obama's State Department is doing everything possible to sabotage the effort. The lies are coming fast and thick. In the New York Times, Jean Herskovitz wrote an op-ed insisting that there was no Boko Haram, suggesting instead that random criminal gangs were really responsible for the mass murder of Christians.

CONGRESS
DEFENDING CROSS AT CAMP PENDLETON - Rep.
Randy Forbes (R-VA), founder and Co-Chairman of the Congressional
Prayer Caucus, was on the Mike Huckabee radio show this week defending
two memorial crosses at Camp Pendleton. The Military Association of
Atheists and Freethinkers (MAFF) is threatening to file a lawsuit if the
crosses are not removed from the military base, where they sit atop a
hill as a memorial to fallen service members. Read more
RELIGIOUS FREEDOM FOR CHAPLAINS - Military chaplains representing the majority of denominations face career penalties for expressing sincerely held religious or moral beliefs on same-sex marriage. There are no conscience or religious freedom protections for chaplains and the Obama Administration supports open homosexuality in the military. Support is needed for the Military Religious Freedom Protection Act. A vote on the bill may come on April 29th. Please contact your congressman today.
RELIGION AND CULTURE
MUSLIMS SHOULD NOT BE COPS IN USA - The Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America (AMJA) cautioned American Muslims in a 22-page Arabic-language paper in 2008 against working in law enforcement in countries which do not rule by Allah's dictates. One of their main concerns was that such work might cause Muslims to gain love and respect for secular laws. It is not often I agree with a Muslim group, but I also do not think Muslims should be in law enforcement. Read more
AIR FORCE: NO BIBLES NEEDED - After receiving a complaint by the Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers (MAAF), the Air Force removed "Is a Bible provided?" from the checklist that staff at Air Force Inns use when ensuring that rooms comply with lodging standards. Air Force Inns are temporary lodging facilities found at most major Air Force installations.

UK "LORD" OFFERS $16 MILLION BOUNTY ON OBAMA AND BUSH -
The first Muslim member of the House of Lords has been suspended from
his post by the Labour Party after he offered a bounty of $16 million
for the capture of Presidents Bush and Obama. He offered the bounty to
show his solidarity with a Pakistani terrorist who planned the murderous
attack on Bombay Hotels; the terrorist, Hafiz Saeed, is being sought by
United States forces. This is the same "Lord" Ahmed who killed a man
when he drove his car into him while texting in 2009. He served 12 weeks
in jail but the Labour Party stood with the Muslim. Read more
BOKO HARAM KILLS MORE - Gunmen from the Islamist Boko Haram killed at least seven people on Thursday and Friday in attacks in northern Nigeria. The media reports the victims as "civilians," but the attacks were against Christian businesses including a water vendor and a bakery. Meanwhile the Boko Haram issued a statement that they would kill Nigeria's' Christian president within three months, and the U.S. government warned of a large scale attack in the Nigerian capital.
EGYPTIAN CHRISTIANS ARE TRAITORS - That was the message on TV to all Christians in Egypt who visit Holy sites in Israel. Watch this stunning video and imagine you are a Christian watching TV in Egypt. With the secular government moving to the sideline and the Muslim Brotherhood coming to power, those who preach anti-Semitic hatred and Christian bashing are becoming more bold in the Egyptian media. See Clip here.

Report From Washington - February 10, 2012

THE PRESIDENCY
CAN CHURCH BACK DOWN OBAMA? - The political backlash against President Obama's plan to force religious organizations to supply health care policies that include contraception, sterilization and the "morning after" pill has been immense. Make no mistake what all of this is about: Liberals love whales and hate babies. At the heart of liberalism is the belief that the planet is more important than the people on it and to protect the empty plains, bare mountains and desolate desserts the population must be reduced. This ideology is so intrenched in the hard-left that Obama was willing to risk the loss of the Catholic vote to reduce the number of live births in the United States. With Catholics and Bible believing Evangelicals against his people hating philosophy he may be forced to back down. Update: Obama has offered a "compromise" that is a total joke and slap in the face of those who believe in religious freedom.
SANTORUM'S BIG WIN -Let me make it clear that I have never personally supported Mitt Romney or Newt Gingrich for the GOP nomination. During the GOP primary process I have watched with alarm as evangelical voters moved from one candidate to the other in search of "someone who can win" rather that looking at the core beliefs of the candidate. While the Religious Freedom Coalition cannot endorse a candidate I can personally say that I endorsed Rick Santorum before the Iowa caucus because of what he stands for and the life he has lived. Santorum's victory over Romney and Gingrich in three states on Tuesday sent a message to the GOP establishment that real values do matter.
CONGRESS
LAWMAKERS COUNTER OBAMA MANDATE - Members of the House and Senate are tirelessly working to overturn the Obama mandate to force church based organizations such as hospitals to provide the "morning after" pill to employees. A bipartisan group of Senators filed an amendment to the federal highway re-authorization bill that would have protected religious employers; however, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid blocked the amendment. The language was identical to the Respect for Rights of Conscience Act, previously introduced in the House. The HHS mandate tramples on the American legacy of religious freedom. Members of the House Prayer Caucus continue engaging in efforts to overturn it.
AIR FORCE KICKS GOD OFF PATCH - The Air Force removed a Latin reference to "God" from the motto of the Air Force Rapid Capabilities Office (RCO) after receiving complaints from the Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers (MAAF). Thirty-five Members of Congress joined Congressman Randy Forbes (R-VA) in sending a letter to the Air Force expressing concern over the decision. The RCO patch, previously displayed the Latin motto that translated into "Doing God's Work with Other People's Money"; however, the Air Force altered it to now read "Doing Miracles with Other People's Money." Especially troubling about the move is the Air Force's implication that the very presence of the word "God" on a military patch-regardless of its context or intent-is somehow unconstitutional.

SUPPORT S-1245 - Senator Roy Blunt has recently introduced the Near East and South Central Asia Religious Freedom Act of 2011 (S-1245) to give Secretary of State the authority to name a Special Envoy to promote the religious freedom of religious minorities in the Near East and Central Asia. The Special Envoy would be an expert in human rights and religious freedom issues and would have the rank of Ambassador. In light of the continued attacks on Christians in Islamic areas of the world it is important to move this legislation forward. Please contact your Senator requesting support of S-1245.
RELIGION AND CULTURE
CPAC EXPLAINED - I am presently in California and not at CPAC, the Conservative Political Action Conference. CPAC gets a lot of hype from the press but its core has so deteriorated that it is now ignored by most social conservatives. It is basically a libertarian event devoid of family values, an event for college age Ron Paul supporters to party at. For many years I was one of the sponsors of CPAC. That ended several years ago when homosexual groups were invited to participate and any mention of radical Islam was banned. The only Washington conference I now participate in is the Value Voters Summit.
MOVIE GUIDE - As mentioned above I am presently in California working on various projects including a possible documentary movie based on my first book, My Life Without God which is being re-released on the 50 anniversary of prayer being removed from public schools. While here I will support and attend the MovieGuide.org gala held tonight. MovieGuide.org is a Christian organization that is changing the way Hollywood does business. It is my firm opinion that Christians should not go to a movie without first consulting MovieGuide.org.

TURKEY CONVERTS CHURCH TO MOSQUE - When the Ottoman Empire fell and the modern Turkish state was established it was secular and religious political parties were banned. The military was given the constitutional responsibility to guard Turkey as a secular state and as a result it was an ally of Israel. A religious party, one associated with the Muslim Brotherhood, has come to power and the Turkish military has been purged of secularists. Some generals have been arrested and Turkey is no longer a friend of Israel. Persecution of Christians has increased and ancient churches are being converted to mosques. Even the New York Times, a Muslim Brotherhood lover, has taken notice. Read more

A FRENCHMAN TELLS THE TRUTH - French Interior Minister Claude Guéant said this week that he stood by remarks that not all civilizations are equal, as critics denounced his comments as dangerous and xenophobic. "Contrary to what the left's relativist ideology says, for us all civilizations are not of equal value," Guéant said. "Those which defend liberty, equality and fraternity, seem to us superior to those which accept tyranny, the subservience of women, social and ethnic hatred," he said referring to Islam. Read more
MOVE OVER MAFIA THE BROTHERHOOD IS ARRIVING - The southern Italian island of Sicily is about to become the proud new owner of a multimillion euro mega-mosque. The mosque, to be built in the medieval town of Salemi in southwestern Sicily, is being paid for by the oil-rich Persian Gulf Emirate of Qatar. Supporters of the mosque hope it will become a reference point for Muslims in Sicily as well as the rest of Italy. Read more
