MidnightWatcher – Prophecy in Motion

Canada has made many wise statements and has taken necessary steps in the past when confronting Islamic extremism. Unfortunately, however, human hands can never put this genie back in the bottle …

By Stewart Bell, National Post – “Islamist extremists are now radicalizing Canadians at ‘a large number of venues,’ according to a secret intelligence report released to the National Post under the Access to Information Act.

While mosques with hardline imams are often singled out for spreading violent Islamist ideology, the study found that radicalization has been taking place at a much longer list of locales.

‘Radicalization is not limited to religious centres,’ says the Canadian Security Intelligence Service report, titled Venues of Sunni Islamist Radicalization in Canada.

The heavily censored report identifies the role of prisons, the Internet and foreign travel in turning some Canadians into extremists who wage or support violence. But it also points a finger at the family home.

‘Parents have radicalized children,’ reads the Intelligence Assessment, ‘husbands have radicalized wives (and some wives have radicalized or supported their husbands) … and siblings have radicalized each other,’ it says.

‘As this assessment has demonstrated, a large number of venues have been, and continue to be used to further Islamist extremist ideology. … As radicalization is usually a social process, it can occur wherever humans interact, in the real world or virtual ones,’ it says.

Since al-Qaeda’s attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, an increasing number of Canadians have become lured into Islamist extremism, an intolerant, anti-democratic and virulently anti-Western worldview that preaches that violence against non-Muslims is a religious duty and a path to paradise.” Read more.
