PRESIDENCY
THE PRESIDENT AT GROUND ZERO - No clergy were allowed at the official Ground Zero memorial service on September 11th, but President Barack Obama read a part of the 46th Psalm, the same Psalm he referred to in Arizona after the shooting of Congresswoman Giffords. The same secularist news media who attacked Gov. Rick Perry for appearing at a public prayer meeting in Texas had not a critical word for Obama's Bible reading in public. But then, maybe they had the inside word that it was an election year gimmick.
OBAMA'S ARAB SPRING - The new leader of Libya declared this week that the new government birthed by President Barack Obama and European leaders would have sharia law. Mustafa Abdel Jalil said, "We seek a state of law, prosperity and one where Sharia is the main source for legislation, and this requires many things and conditions." Just a few days later in Cairo the Israeli embassy was invaded by jihadists as Egyptian police looked the other way. The situation was so dire that Prime Minister Netanyahu called President Obama asking him to talk the Egyptians into protecting the embassy staff, which the Egyptians begrudgingly did. Barack Obama's plan for the Middle East appears to be surrounding Israel with even more hostile enemies than it already has.
THE CONGRESS
U.S. COMMISSION ON INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM COULD SHUT DOWN - Ten years ago the Religious Freedom Coalition worked to pass H.R. 1856, the International Religious Freedom Act which created the United States Commission on Religious Freedom (USCIRF). The bill had a ten year sunset, which means the commission's time will expire unless there is a reauthorization. Congressman Frank Wolf, along with Foreign Affairs Chairman Ros-Lehtinen and Ranking Member Berman, introduced a bill focusing solely on the reauthorization and reform of USCIRF. The bill passed this week, but now faces a Senate vote. Please ask your Senators to extend the life of the commission.
RELIGION AND CULTURE
SAUDI TEXTBOOKS STILL TEACH HATE - Saudi Arabia, home to 15 of the 19 terrorist hijackers of 9/11, continues to promote a violent form of Islam through its school system and textbooks, ten years after the attacks. The texts continue to teach students that "the Jews and the Christians are enemies" of Muslims and that Jews are "apes" and Christians are "swine." Read more CHURCHES AIDING MOSQUE WITH TERROR HISTORY - Christian houses of worship are lending their parking lots to a radical Washington-area mosque that aided some of the hijackers who attacked the Pentagon on Sept. 11, despite warnings from FBI agents and local anti-jihad watch groups that such brotherly outreach is only helping the Islamic center expand and potentially attract future terrorists.

THE GROUND ZERO MOSQUE
A TRUTHFUL GROUND ZERO RALLY - A rally was held near Ground Zero and sponsored by Pamela Geller's Stop the Islamization of America, as a reminder that 9-11 was not just about the victims but also about remembering who attacked us. The rally was a great success. The crowd filled two city blocks, and many brought flags and banners. Speakers included family members of those who died in the 9-11 jihad attack against our nation. Leaders from groups fighting the advance of sharia law in their own nations spoke as well. It was an honor for me to open the event with an invocation.
The Constitution or Sharia: Preserving Freedom Conference will be the first national conference on sharia and the Islamization of America, and will be held in Nashville on November 11, 2011. Topics will include: Sharia and Jihad; The European Experience; The Dehumanization and Diminishment of Women in the West under Sharia; The Muslim Brotherhood in America; Sharia and Legal Action, Grassroots Organizing against Sharia and Rabats (including Mega-Mosques); Defending Liberty In Legislatures; and Fighting Islamist Propaganda in the Media
INTERNATIONAL
HOW MUSLIMS VIEW 9-11 - Muslim demonstrators burned an American flag outside the U.S. embassy in London during a moment of silence to mark the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 jihad attack . Screaming "USA - terrorist state!" Muslims denounced the USA and carried anti-American banners. London police allowed the burning of the American flag but broke up a counter demonstration of pro-American Brits who had brought flowers to the embassy. Story and video
ATTACK IN PHILIPPINES AVERTED - The Philippines National Police uncovered a plan by Islamic militants to blow up Catholic churches in Cotabato City. Regional police linked the attackers to Al Qaeda who were planning to plant three bombs in Catholic churches. In 2009, six people were killed and dozens wounded when a bomb went off outside Immaculate Conception Cathedral in the same city.
ATTACKS IN THAILAND ALMOST DAILY - Muslims demanding a separate Islamic republic under sharia law in Thailand are attacking innocent civilians almost daily. This week two Buddhist monks have been murdered. Yesterday five soldiers died when their truck was bombed in southern Thailand.

OBAMA OK WITH SAUDI HATE CRIMES - This week Barack Obama meets with the Saudi royalty in Washington, and they will receive royal treatment from the White House despite the fact that the Kingdom distributes books filled with hatred and despicable anti-democratic lies throughout the world. In a recent column Nina Shea of the Hudson Institute wrote: "Saudi textbooks teach, along with many other noxious lessons, that Jews and Christians are "enemies," and they dogmatically instruct that various groups of "unbelievers" - apostates (which includes Muslim moderates who reject Saudi Wahhabi doctrine), polytheists (which includes Shiites), and Jews - should be killed. Under the Saudi Education Ministry's method of rote learning, these teachings amount to indoctrination, starting in first grade and continuing through high school, where militant jihad on behalf of "truth" is taught as a sacred duty. These textbooks are used not only in Saudi Arabia but in Saudi-funded schools around the world." Read full article
OBAMA'S "MODERATE" SUPREME PICK - As Dean of Harvard Law School, Elena Kagan demanded that Blue-Cross - Blue-Shield cover sex-change operations as an "equal right." She also agreed to the Lambda Transgender Task Force demand to force women to share bathrooms and locker-rooms with cross-dressing men. While promoting the homosexual agenda, "moderate" Kagan also supported a multi-million dollar donation from Saudi Arabia to promote Sharia law at Harvard. She apparently sees no contradiction in these positions, even though homosexuals are hung in Saudi Arabia under Sharia law. Kagan claims to be a Jew, but she is a secularist who just hates Christianity. Since both Sharia law and homosexuality are contrary to the Bible, she supports both. Kagan will be confirmed by the Senate and become the most radical Justice on the Supreme Court ever.
THE CONGRESS
ACLU ON THE RIGHT SIDE? - The so called "Disclose Act" passed recently by the House, allegedly to "reform" political campaigns, is the most undemocratic bill ever passed by Congress and is so unconstitutional that even the ACLU is against it. The Disclose Act prohibits the Religious Freedom Coalition, and all other non-profits with a membership of less than one million from publishing comments on candidates for public office up to four months before an election. Why were large organizations allowed to do what the rest of us can't? It's because the far left wing Moveon.org has over one million members, while all conservative groups except the NRA have less than one million. Liberal AARP can comment on candidates, but conservative 60 Plus cannot. Under the proposed law, beginning today, July 2nd, this Religious Freedom Coalition Update would be prohibited from mentioning the pro-abortion views of Senator Harry Reid, for example. (Note that the bill has not yet passed the Senate.) Read the ACLU letter here.
REAFFIRMING IN GOD WE TRUST - ''In God We Trust'' is the official motto of the United States. Congressman Randy Forbes (R-VA) introduced H.Con.Res.274, not only to reaffirm the national motto, but to call on America to trust God once again. The Democrat controlled House has referred the resolution to the Judiciary Committee, Subcommittee on the Constitution, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties. The resolution has 72 cosponsors, most of whom are in the Prayer Caucus. Please contact your congressman about H.Con.Res.274.
CULTURE AND RELIGION
CHRISTIAN "TERRORIST" GIVEN ASYLUM - This was the strangest immigration case I have seen in some thirty years of working on religious freedom issues. THE FACTS: A young man, born into a high ranking Islamic terrorist family, converted to Christianity and worked undercover for Israeli intelligence to stop terror attacks against Israel and the United States, then sought asylum here. The Obama Administration tagged him as a "terrorist sympathizer" and ordered his deportation to the West Bank where he would, of course, be immediately murdered. Rep. Doug Lamborn, R-CO organized a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Napolitano signed by 22 House members urging her to grant asylum to Mosab Hassan Yousef. Israel sent Mr. Yousef's Shin Bet handler, Gonen Ben-Itzhak, to San Diego to testify on behalf of his former agent, but by the time the hearing started this week the Obama Administration realized the publicity was so damning that the Immigration Judge granted Yousef asylum with no witnesses called. But the question remains: Why did the Obama Administration want to send this young hero who had stopped numerous terrorist attacks against Israelis and Americans to his death? Yousef's book, Son of Hamas details his conversion to Christianity. Jerusalem Post version of story is interesting.
SUPREMES: CHRISTIAN GROUPS CAN'T DEMAND CHRISTIAN LEADERS - This week the Supreme Court by a 5-4 vote held that recognized student groups at universities do not have a right to choose members and leaders who adhere to their core beliefs. The Court stated that public universities can require student groups to accept any student as a member or leader regardless of that person's beliefs. Christian groups must accept atheist members and Jewish groups must accept Muslim members, according to the Court. Read more

THE SHAME OF AFGHANISTAN - At the order of Afghan president Karzai, more than 20 Afghan Christians have been arrested. The arrests were made after Abdul Sattar Khawasi, a deputy of the lower house, demanded that Muslim converts to Christianity be executed. He was outraged over an Afghan TV report showing men reciting Christian prayers and being baptized. There are almost 100,000 NATO troops fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan; however, the government we put in power there is just as intolerant of religious freedom as the Taliban. Read report
