There is an important event in DC this Friday. A new organization, SIOA (Stop the Islamization of America), devoted to helping us fight Sharia law, is announcing its presence. Up until now most of the work against political Islam has been in the hands of individual web sites. By and large, these are sites where you can learn, but not join in and work on a project with other people.
Up until now the “doing” game in town has been ACT. It is a mark of our maturation that we now have a new organization devoted to people in the same room working on projects that resist creeping Islamization. It is possible to contrast and compare ACT and SIOA, but none of that matters. It does not matter whether a cat is gray, orange or white, as long as it catches mice.
The only problem now is that we need 998 more organizations to cover the fight against political Islam on many fronts, so that a thousand flowers can bloom.
Below is SIOA’s press release.

WASHINGTON – Stop Islamization of America (SIOA) will hold an organizational launch and press conference with speakers and panel discussion on September 25th, to coincide with Islam on Capitol Hill Day and the 220th anniversary of the passage of the Bill of Rights.
SIOA is an educational and human rights organization with two foundational principles: Love and Compassion.
SIOA’s mission is to educate the American people about the political doctrine of Islam, its history, Sharia (Islamic Law), and Jihad. SIOA believes that Sharia Law is incompatible with our Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Seven experts are scheduled to speak on the subjects of Islam, terrorism and civic responsibility.
Rabbi Jon Hausman – Conservative political moderator
Rebecca Bynum – Publisher, Senior Managing Editor – New English Review
Dave Gaubatz – Veteran counter-terrorism investigator, author
Catherine Martin – Veteran grass roots activist, Northern Virginia
John Cosgrove – Counter-terrorism consultant
Martin Mawyer – Founder, Christian Action Network
Jerry Gordon – Senior Editor – New English Review
Attendees will be asked to speak with their Congressmen about Sharia Law, two acts before Congress (the Free Speech Protection Act and the Act to Protect First Responders Fighting Terrorism) and the effort to help protect those who leave Islam from reprisals.
Note: Please register for this event. Please click Join Network [2]and fill out the section on 9/25. If you have already registered, but did not specify that you wish to attend, please send an email instead. Thank you!
Contact Your Rep!
After the conference and panel discussion we will distribute information packages for you to use in appointments with Members of Congress and their staffs. We will present them with information about the two pieces of legislation that provide protections against violation of Free speech by foreign laws under our First Amendment and civil litigation by stealth jihadists against First Responders protecting us against Islamic terrorism.
We will engage them in discussion; ask them if they would co-sponsor the proposed legislation. We can also explain the dangers of Sharia invading our civil laws in America and supplanting our Constitution. After all, September 25th is the 220th anniversary of the passage of the Bill of Rights [3] in Congress.
