President Obama, John Kerry, Chuck Hagel, and other prominent representatives of Obama's administration have been repeating the line ad nauseum that the Islamic State is neither Islamic nor a state. Their friends the press have played these clips over and over, their parrots on MSNBC have repeated the line incessantly, and on down the line it goes to blogs and Twitter. ISIS is not Islamic. Dr. Zuhdi strongly disagrees.
"Please, if anybody in this administration is listening, stop telling us Muslims what is Islamic. I mean, so he's saying this is compounding the sin? How about when he shakes and hugs the king of Saudi Arabia for their being custodians of the Holy Mosque and yet they have imprisoned apostates, liberals Muslims. They're a mysogynistic nation that treats their women as third class citizens. Or the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, or the Islamic Republican of Iran. Hundreds of millions of Muslims running governments all over the world that line their prisons and torture Christians and Jews and Muslims, that's Islamic? And ISIS came out of thin air? ISIS is a by-product of those ideologies. And to deny it and dismiss it, they're trying to bury us reformers from having a seat at the table."

Blog author's comments - There's probably a large frown in the Oval Office now, or perhaps on the golf course. Strong words by Dr. Jasser, it is too bad more Muslims in America don't feel the same way and express it. Looks like Dr. Jasser is telling the administration what it doesn't want to hear, and as usual they won't listen. I wonder if they even know who he is and if they do, don't care what he has to say. So far he is about the only one that has said what needs to be said, especially to Obama and his entire administration.
