Gülen holds Vatican responsible for Muslim bloodshed=Gulen fake Interfaith Dialogue Anti-Semantic hypocrite



Gulenist/ Hizmet's true face is bigotry and racism.  Cajoling with Christians, Jewish, Hindu et al
is on the surace to suit their overall agenda with gaining support for future political and business interests.  Gulenists are Anti-semantic Dr. Dani Rodrik a Harvard Economics professor from Turkey of the Jewish faith knows the TWO FACED agenda of the Gulen Movement.

Two faced agenda of the Gulen Movement's bigotry, racism, anti-semiatism.  

Fethullah Gülen and the Jews

/ SEPT. 12, 2013
Fethullah Gülen is the U.S.-based Turkish Islamist leader. To his supporters, he is a man who preaches peace and interfaith tolerance, while to his detractors, he is a wolf in sheep’s clothing who seeks to undermine secularism and the interfaith relations about which he so often speaks.
A scholar helpfully brings to my attention a blog post from late last year that until now I had not seen: Dani Rodrik and Pınar Doğan, two Harvard-based scholars, have uncovered some of Gülen’s writings on Jews which should give pause for thought about where the shadowy preacher truly stands. From their “Balyoz Davası ve Gerçekler” (“Sledgehammer Case and Facts”) blog:
Even though they have lived in exile here and there and have led an almost nomadic existence, Jews have been able to maintain their racial characteristics with almost no loss. Moreover, the Jewish tribe is very intelligent. This intelligent tribe has put forth many things throughout history in the name of science and thought. But these have always been offered in the form of poisoned honey and have been presented to the world as such. For instance, Karl Marx is a Jew; the communism he developed looks like a good alternative to capitalism at first sight, but in essence it is a deathly poison mixed in honey… Jews will maintain their existence until the apocalypse. And shortly before the apocalypse, their mission of acting as the coil spring for humanity’s progress will come to an end, and they will prepare their end with their own hands.
Their incurable enmity to Islam and Muslims aside, these people, which look with scorn upon even their own prophets and killed many among them, will finally end up in the position of Nazis and will look for a place to hide in the four corners of the earth. Nevertheless, since dwelling on the true causes and motives related to this topic will both oppose the business of truth and result in raising undue passions, we shall let this pass for the moment. Yes, until Islam comes to be represented to the desired extent, it seems like luck will favor the Jews for some time still.
There is much, much more over at their blog, which is certainly worth a read. While the Gülen movement has been scrubbing anti-Semitic content from online versions of their leader’s writings, that merely shows a disturbing discrepancy between Gülen’s preaching for internal consumption and external use only. Perhaps it is time for some of the state legislators and universities that take Gülen’s largesse to reconsider just where they stand.

    Jerusalem Posts article 
The Atlantic’s August 2013 interview with reputed radical Islamist, Fethullah Gülen, depicts him meeting with the then chief rabbi of Israel. The rabbi was giving a vase to Gülen, who now lives in a self-imposed exile in the US to escape charges brought by a Turkish court.

Interfaith dialogue. Coexistence. Synergy between the Abrahamic faiths. This is Gülen’s raison d’etre – but only in English and only when there are cameras to record his seemingly altruistic rhetoric.

With articles such as “To embrace the spirit of acceptance and tolerance” penned in English and centrally featured on his English-language website, Gülen seems like the perfect Muslim partner for Jews and leaders of other faith communities. Since the US government supported Gülen’s permanent residency in Pennsylvania (tacitly implying Washington’s endorsement of Gülen and his followers), many have celebrated the man. But increasing reports are contradicting the image Gülen has worked so hard to promote.
Great idea about Interfaith Dialogue between Muslims and Jewish people, except the Gulen Movement is not Muslim they are a CULT.  Replace the word "Allah" with "Gulen" 
There’s something about breaking bread that brings together communities.
In Orange County, during the month of Ramadan, there have been several interfaith iftars, or fast-breaking dinners, where local Muslims have invited other members of the community to sit down and eat with them – get to know them better as people. These events have taken place in mosques, restaurants, in people’s homes and in community centers.
On Friday night, it happened at a synagogue, at Temple Beth Sholom in Santa Ana, right after a Jewish Shabbat service.
Hijab-clad women sat in the audience with their families during the outdoor Shabbat service led by Rabbi Heidi Cohen. The visitors followed along as they held the temple’s bound prayer books.
After the service, the guests from Pacifica Institute in Irvine went into the temple’s sanctuary and said their evening Ramadan prayers. In the temple’s community room, Cassandra Arslan talked about the meaning and significance of Ramadan, after which Bilal Temel said the fourth prayer of the day to break their 16-hour fast.
This was the first iftar dinner at the synagogue in its 73 years of existence.
Eighteen-month-old Kerem Yildiz sat on the lap of his mother, Emine, as if he were a poster child for what these two communities were attempting to do that night. He held a date in one hand and a piece of braided challah bread in another.
“When we sit, pray and eat together, this is what builds lasting relationships,” Cohen said at the conclusion of her Shabbat service. “Misunderstanding builds barriers. But we’ll shatter those barriers by breaking bread together.”
As the evening drew to a close at the synagogue, Emine Yildiz asked the rabbi for her favorite challah recipe. Cohen, meanwhile, relished the creamy Turkish lentil soup prepared by volunteers at Pacifica.
Soni Sandberg, a longtime member of the synagogue, said she is happy to see the communities come together. She views the world as one large family.
“Family members have differences of opinion all the time,” she said. “But, in the end, when we sit at the dinner table, we are still family. That never changes.”
Bill Richardson, a member of the Church of the Foothills in Santa Ana, wore a shirt with the word “coexist” printed stylistically to represent major world religions.
“That’s the message,” he said. “We need to coexist if we want to survive.”
Carol Wilson, who attends church with Richardson, said sitting down together to eat creates a special environment.
“We recognize that we have more similarities than differences,” she said.
At the Garden Grove Community Center on Thursday night, there was acoming together of two other groups – groups which often find themselves on opposite sides: faith leaders and the LGBT community.
Orange County faith leaders invited members of The LGBT Center in Santa Ana to an iftar dinner. The event, dubbed “Breaking Fast Under the Banner of Unity,” was the brainchild of Garden Grove Mayor Bao Nguyen and Rida Hamida, community liaison for Rep. Loretta Sanchez.
Hamida said she organized and attended Thursday’s event not as a representative, but as a member of the Muslim community in Orange County.
“It turned into this beautiful energy of complete, pure intention,” she said of the emotional event, which more than 300 people attended. “We may not be able to agree on everything, but we promote dignity, respect and human rights for all people.”
Hamida said among the faiths represented were Muslim, Protestant, Buddhist, Jewish, Mormon, Catholic, Unitarian and Zoroastrian. Muzammil Siddiqi, director of the Islamic Society of Orange County, spoke at the event about respecting the dignity of all human beings.
This Ramadan has seen more reaching out than ever before by the Muslim community, Hamida said.
“That’s because we are at a time when everyone is craving to belong,” she said. “The divisive rhetoric out there is actually pushing us to be together. Unfortunately, it took many tragedies to make this happen. But, the important thing is, it’s happening.”
Laura Kanter, with The LGBT Center of Orange County, said the event was “powerful and healing for a lot of people.”
“The fact that they had The LGBT Center be a cosponsor for this event, I don’t know if that has ever happened at an iftar before,” she said. “It was a different space for me to be in. It was humbling.”
Kanter said Thursday’s iftar was areaction to the June 12 Orlando, Fla., shooting when Omar Mateen, a security guard, killed 49 people and injured 53 others in a gay nightclub.
“Being gay is not an issue that is talked about in the Muslim community and several other faith communities,” Kanter said. “So for these faith leaders to step out of their comfort zone was just amazing.”
She specifically spoke of Siddiqi, a revered Muslim elder, who delivered a “beautiful and loving message.”
“He didn’t bring up anything about LGBT,” Kanter said. “But standing with us was a big step.”
Kanter said she was moved when Siddiqi got up along with others and gave her a standing ovation.
“He didn’t have to stand up,” she said. “But, at that moment, he decided that was the right thing to do. And I don’t take that for granted.”

“Part of being Jewish is caring about everybody,” said Stephen Sherman, whose participation in an interfaith retreat to Turkey in 2013 started the friendship that enabled Temple Beth Sholom to host an interfaith Shabbat on July 1.
On the retreat, Sherman, a Temple Beth Sholom congregant, met Ilker Yildiz, who is now Orange County branch director at the Pacifica Institute, a nonprofit organization of Turkish-Americans. Founded in 2003, the nonprofit does social welfare projects and coordinates interfaith gatherings at churches, synagogues, and mosques.
“Our mission is to reach out to different faith communities to break bread,” said Yildiz. “Stephen is one of my closest friends, and together we came up with the idea of joining our communities at Temple Beth Sholom.”

Snubbing of Jewish community of Chicago 
by Pacifica Insitute's sister organization Niagara Foundation 
All Turkish Interfaith organizations have exiled Imam F. Fethullah Gulen as their source of "inspiration" from Jewish News 
It appears there will be no more dialogue between Jewish groups and the Niagara Foundation over the foundation’s controversial cancellation of a talk by Israeli Consul General Roey Gilad.
“The ball is kind of in their court. We lobbed the ball back into their court and there’s been no volley,” Aaron Cohen, vice president of communications for the Jewish United Fund/Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Chicago, and the unofficial spokesperson for several Jewish groups grappling with the issue, said.
The Niagara Foundation, under fire from Chicago’s Jewish community, has issued a statement saying the organization denied caving in to pressure from anti-Israel or pro-Palestinian groups in cancelling the appearance by the Israeli representative.
The foundation had invited Gilad, the top Israeli diplomat in the Midwest, to speak before its members on June 18. The talk was to be part of a series on religion and peace in the Middle East.
The Niagara Foundation is a 10-year-old non-profit organization “dedicated to the mission of fostering civic conversations and sustained relationships between people of different cultures and faiths … by striving to create safe spaces dedicated to reducing the tensions of ethnic, racial, religious, and political partisanship and rancor,” according to its website.
It was founded in 2004 by a group of Turkish-American Muslims and has offices in several cities, including Chicago. It proclaims itself to be dedicated to interfaith engagement among people of different religions and ethnicities.
The foundation opened its Center for Public and Global Affairs in 2012 to reach out to public officials, civic and business leaders in the community. Gilad has been invited to speak at that center in the past. This talk would have been part of the foundation’s Friends in Faith series, which has featured a number of local religious leaders.
“In my experience, they have really been the premier convener of interfaith groups in Chicago,” Cohen said of the foundation.
He called Niagara’s record of interfaith engagement in Chicago “stellar. They have always taken a very high road even in the face of tremendous pressure and opposition from some Muslim groups who are disturbed by their neutrality to the political riptides,” he said. “They’ve invited (Roey) Gilad to appear numerous times and have been absolutely agnostic” on Israeli policies.
So it came as a surprise to many segments of the Jewish community when, three days after making the invitation, several Niagara board members called Gilad and asked him to cancel the event.
“They said they had gotten outside pressure, phone calls, complaints. They asked him to bow out and cancel the event, and he said no,” Renie Schreiber, press officer for the Israeli Consulate, said. “(Gilad) said, if you want to uninvite me, go ahead,” she said.
“We see this as a delegitimizing of Israel,” Schreiber said. “From the initial ‘disinvite,’ we were disappointed in this. He has spoken there twice before and the consul general before him spoke there too. He thinks it’s a shanda(shame) to ask someone to bow out after they’ve invited them.”
Schreiber said the Consulate sent a letter, which it is keeping private for the moment, to the Niagara Foundation’s national leadership.
“The sense of (the letter) is that the consul general is basically asking if this is part of a pattern he wants to be involved in, something that goes along with his belief system,” she said. “We’re not going to do anything else, we just sent a letter asking where they’re going with this.”
Others in the Jewish community felt the same way.
“It came as a surprise and shock that they had scheduled an appearance and then canceled it,” Cohen said.
In a statement on its website, which a spokesperson later sent to Chicago Jewish News, the foundation said it canceled Gilad’s talk because “it determined that it was ill-suited to Niagara’s aforementioned stated mission of fostering positive interfaith dialogue in an apolitical environment free from contentiousness.
“Contrary to the recent claims by a few pro-Palestinian and pro-Israel groups, Niagara does not schedule, reschedule or cancel its programming due to external pressure. In response to the cancellation some of these same groups have crassly and inaccurately attempted to portray Niagara as anti-Israel and even anti-Semitic. We at Niagara profoundly regret the posturing of groups from both sides wishing to prioritize their own political agendas over the deeper values and concerns to which our mission is dedicated.”
Officers and board members of the foundation did not respond to numerous calls and emails from Chicago Jewish News seeking clarification but sent the statement from the website instead.
Of course, caving to pressure from anti-Israel groups is exactly what Jewish organizations believe happened.
“They were under pressure from the boycott Israel crowd, primarily American Muslims for Palestine,” Cohen said. “They felt they were beyond the pale and they decided to draw the line with the Niagara Foundation in terms of their engagement with Israelis. They threatened to disrupt the event.”
Several tweets from American Muslims for Palestine thanked the Niagara Foundation for cancelling Gilad’s talk. American Muslims for Palestine did not return phone calls from Chicago Jewish News.
Amy Stoken, regional director of AJC Chicago, said “the BDS (Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement) people are celebrating that they canceled Roey (Gilad’s) speech. The Niagara Foundation claimed it wasn’t caving in to pressure, but you can see that American Muslims for Palestine were taking credit for pressuring them.”
The cancellation “really highlighted what the BDS movement is all about,” Stoken told Chicago Jewish News. “It’s not about social justice or a two-state solution. It’s about shutting down dialogue. It’s important for people to understand that BDS is counterproductive. It’s not about a two-state solution.”
Cohen, meanwhile, said leaders of several Jewish organizations remained perplexed.
“Was this the best course of action, to cancel the event? A lot of us from various Jewish organizations said wow, you can’t cave in. Does this mean you have changed your position? Where does this come from? We wanted a clarification of why you guys gave in to the delegitimizers. What options did you consider?” he said.
The statement the Niagara Foundation issued on the matter “in a way rubs salt into the wound,” Cohen said. “It showed no recognition of the deeper issues at play. Their original stance was to ask Roey to cancel himself – that showed no understanding. They sort of don’t get it.”
On the other hand, he said, “we don’t want to whack them too hard. They’ve been terrific. They’re struggling with how to move forward.”
Cohen, acting in partnership with several other Jewish groups, asked for a meeting with Niagara Foundation top staff to clarify the intent of the cancellation.
Meanwhile Alison Pure-Slovin, Midwest Region director of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, a Jewish human rights organization, found out about the cancellation and was outraged. On June 23, she sent a letter to the Niagara Foundation “demand(ing) a swift apology” from the organization for cancelling Gilad’s talk “due to pressure from anti-Israel organizations.”
“This craven act legitimizes anti-Semitism and is unacceptable in 21st-century America,” she wrote. “The Niagara Foundation needs to publicly apologize for their bigotry.”
Slovin told Chicago Jewish News she became concerned when a friend at the Israeli Consulate told her about the cancellation.
“If you looked at the tweets coming up, they were from the Palestinian organizations and they were pleased by what they were able to accomplish,” she said. “It’s very concerning that an organization like Niagara, which on the surface has an extraordinary mission that we all support, that is striving to create dialogue and then gives in to political pressure and cancels. That is completely contrary to its mission,” she said.
“We don’t expect everybody to love Israel but we should have a dialogue,” Slovin said.
The Wiesenthal Center also issued a press release stating that “the insulting and scapegoating explanation (on the Niagara website) is a cowardly move … and contradicts the mission of the foundation. The Simon Wiesenthal Center reiterates that it is time for the foundation to acknowledge the error in their decision and issue an apology to the Consul General, a representative of the Jewish State.”
If hosting an event with Gilad “was ill-suited to Niagara’s aforementioned stated mission of fostering positive interfaith dialogue in an apolitical environment free from contentiousness,” then why invite him in the first place, the release asked. The claim that the foundation “does not schedule, reschedule or cancel its programming due to external pressure” is completely discredited by the last minute nature of the cancellation,” Slovin wrote.
She called the president of the foundation, Sheriff Soydan, requesting a meeting with Niagara Foundation officials. Slovin said she called and emailed the foundation numerous times but did not hear anything from them until a week later, when she was invited to attend a meeting that had already been scheduled with other Jewish community groups. Slovin said she would attend.
On the day of the meeting, she received an email stating she was not invited to the meeting and should not attend.
In the contretemps that ensued, Niagara officials told Slovin that “we cannot welcome you to today’s meeting without removing” the press release posted on the Wiesenthal Center’s website “and issuing a formal public apology for the hostile and defamatory statements you made concerning Niagara.”
“We have convened today’s meeting in accordance with our commitment to dialogue for mutual understanding among people of good will. Without such an apology we regrettably cannot assume your good will and so regrettably must insist that you not attend” the meeting, Soydan wrote to Slovin.
“They were pretty clear – they felt like we were attacking them,” Slovin said. “They asked me for an apology. They convened the meeting (with other Jewish groups) in accordance with other people of goodwill, and they felt I was not a person of goodwill.” Slovin did not attend the meeting.
Others did, however, including representatives of AJC Chicago, Chicago Board of Rabbis, Jewish Federation/Jewish United Fund and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
Several board members from the Niagara Foundation attended and “two members did all the talking,” Cohen said. “The staff said nothing. I found that a little strange.
“Rather than display any understanding of why people in the Jewish community would be upset, they were sort of like, we wanted the consul general to help us out and we’re upset with him. There was no sense an Israeli diplomat is not going to help them cave in to pressure.”
He called the situation “a bit of a mess. It’s tough because you don’t want to whack people.”
After the meeting, the four organizations issued an open letter to the Niagara Foundation Board of Trustees and Advisory Board. It stated that “interfaith dialogue, multicultural understanding, and the promotion of intergroup harmony in Chicago have been the objectives of the Niagara Foundation for over a decade.
“With the abrupt cancellation of a June 18 appearance by the Hon. Roey Gilad … in its ‘Friends in Faith’ series, Niagara bowed to pressure from anti-Israel groups, which reportedly had threatened to disrupt the event. Niagara has explained the cancellation ‘because it determined that it was ill-suited to Niagara’s aforementioned stated mission of fostering positive interfaith dialogue in an apolitical environment free from contentiousness.’
“In succumbing to those who sow division, by yielding to those whose goal is to ostracize pro-Israel voices, and by suggesting that the Israeli Consul General himself should have canceled his invitation, Niagara has compromised its stated mission ‘to promote social cohesion by fostering civic conversations and sustained relationships between people of different cultures and faiths.’
“Niagara has compromised not only its mission, but also its relationship with the Jewish community.
“The alternative would have been for Niagara to take the lead and to turn any disruption into a ‘teaching moment’ about its values of respectful dialog and inclusion.
“On behalf of our respective organizations, we call on Niagara to reassert its value to those who believe in dialogue and to make a clear statement that it erred in canceling the event.
“We call on Niagara to restore our trust in it as a convener of people of all faiths and creeds.”
Those who attended the meeting or belonged to groups whose representative attended said they agreed with Cohen.
Jill Weinberg, director of the Midwest Regional Office of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, said she would say only that “the Niagara Foundation has done fantastic work for many many years and I do believe they could have and should have handled this situation differently. I hope they will continue to do their really important work in dialoguing with all communities from this point on.”
And that appears to be where the matter ended. Cohen said he has not heard any more from the Niagara Foundation and does not necessarily expect to.
“The best outcome would be for Niagara not to cave in to these pressures. To ostracize Israeli voices is not the answer. They’ve alienated the mainstream Jewish community,” he said.
As for Slovin, she said, “I’m still awaiting a response from them. I’m still hoping but I don’t believe there will be any more of a response. I honestly believe they are just going to sweep it under the table and hope it goes away at this point. What other explanation will they give? (Expecting one) I just don’t think is realistic.”

    Here the Gulen Interfaith dialogue of Florida (Atlantic Institute) invades the Holocaust center in - From Family Security
The Atlantic Institute will be partnering with the Maitland Holocaust Center and the Interfaith Council of Central Florida on a special program entitled, Is History Repeating Itself? Jewish and Muslim Immigrant Experiences in America, scheduled for Thursday February 25, 2016 at the Holocaust Center, 851 N Maitland Avenue in Maitland, FL.
The Atlantic Institute is partnered with the Alliance for Shared Values which is openly affiliated with the Gülen Movements Hizmet social initiatives in the United States.  The Atlantic Institute on their website, praises Mr. Fethullah Gülen as their Imam and political leader.
Fact #1
Recently, FBI agents carried out raids at 19 Gülen Charter schools in Illinois, Indiana and Ohio as part of an "ongoing white-collar crime matter." The investigations are still ongoing however, this is a clue the Atlantic Institute and the Gülen Movement are not all about interfaith peace and love.
Fact #2
IBTimes, Michael Kaplan reports on 10/29/15,  "Fethullah Gülen has been placed on Turkey's most wanted terrorist list along with leaders of the Islamic State militant group...the Turkish government seeks Gülen's extradition from the U.S."  This is a clue there is a serious terrorist problem with the Gülen movement's leader, Mr. Gülen.
Fact #3
The Middle East Quarterly reports, in 1999, Turkish television aired footage of Mr. Gülen delivering sermons which revealed his plan to implement Shari‘a Islamiyya (Islamic Law) using deceptive tactics.  This fact is a warning to Jews and Christians, approach Gülen franchises like the Atlantic institute with extreme caution.
In the sermon below, Gülen explains how he is an Islamic Law supremacist without fear or remorse.
"You must move in the arteries of the system without anyone noticing your existence until you reach all the power centers ... until the conditions are ripe, they [the followers] must continue like this. If they do something prematurely, the world will crush our heads, and Muslims will suffer everywhere, like in the tragedies in Algeria, like in 1982 [in] Syria ... like in the yearly disasters and tragedies in Egypt. The time is not yet right. You must wait for the time when you are complete and conditions are ripe, until we can shoulder the entire world and carry it ... You must wait until such time as you have gotten all the state power, until you have brought to your side all the power of the constitutional institutions in Turkey ... Until that time, any step taken would be too early-like breaking an egg without waiting the full forty days for it to hatch. It would be like killing the chick inside. The work to be done is [in] confronting the world. Now, I have expressed my feelings and thoughts to you all-in confidence ... trusting your loyalty and secrecy. I know that when you leave here-[just] as you discard your empty juice boxes, you must discard the thoughts and the feelings that I expressed here."
To date, Huseyin Peker Executive Director of The Atlantic Institute in Orlando, FL has not publicly condemned these problematic statements from their spiritual leader Mr. Fethullah Gülen, the designated terrorist.
Interlocking Directorships
Coincidentally, Pam Kancher, Executive Director of the Maitland Holocaust Center, is also on the Advisory Board of The Gülen Movements Atlantic Institute.  One can only guess she didn't do a Google search on the Atlantic Institute and Mr. Fethullah Gülen before partnering with them.  Perhaps it is this interlocking Board of Directorships that drives Ms. Kancher to blindly allow The Atlantic Institute to dictate their false narrative there is a moral equivalence between Jewish immigrants from the 1900's to WW2 and the current Syrian refugee's.
What The Gülen Movement Is Selling
The Atlantic Institute is promoting the February 25th event this way, "It's difficult to imagine any political discussion today that does not include some mention of immigration. There are increasing concerns about border security, and ongoing debates about who we will allow in to our country and who we must keep out.  
For the Jewish community, particularly among Survivors and their families, this concern feels in some ways like their own history.  Jewish immigrants to America at the beginning of the 1900s and up to WWII era faced many of the same types of suspicions that Muslim-Americans, particularly immigrants, face today."
Jewish Persecution Has More In Common With The Syrian & Yazidi Christians
Joel B. Pollak, in his 11/17/15 article, Why Syrian Refugees Are Not Like Jewish Refugees in WW2, makes this compelling observation challenging the entire premise of the Feb 25th event at the Maitland Holocaust Center.  Mr. Pollak says, "Jews were singled out for persecution by the Nazis, not (initially) fleeing an ongoing war. If anyone has a unique moral claim that parallels the Jews of Europe, it is the Syrian Christians, Iraqi Yazidis, and other minorities being persecuted by radical Islamist forces in the Middle East. But that is not true of the broader wave of Syrian refugees. That is not to blame them for the war, but it does suggest there is a good moral case for distinguishing among refugees, rather than admitting all who wish to come."
Conclusion
Publicly, the Gülen Movement and their franchises sell themselves as a peaceful interfaith group.  I'm sorry to tell you this, many American's gladly buy into these wolves in sheep's clothing Islamist interfaith partners because they sell coexistence and peace.  Like Mr. Gulen however, many of these Islamist interfaith groups have very close ties to the Global Jihad Movement.
Dig a little deeper into the Gülen Movement and you find FBI raids, Turkey designating Mr. Gülen a most wanted terrorist, and Mr. Gulen's use of spycraft to violently spread strict Islamic Law after infiltrating governments power centers, as articulated in his sermon above.
The Atlantic Institute scored a big propaganda victory being invited inside the hallowed halls of the Maitland Holocaust Memorial Center in a deceptive effort to raise the status of Syrian refugees off the backs of persecuted Jews from the pogroms to the Holocaust.  I'm confident behind closed doors the Gülen movement and the Atlantic Institute are pleased how easily manipulated the Maitland, FL Holocaust Memorial Center's leadership is.
If Pam Kancher, Director of the Maitland Holocaust Center, is sincerely looking to dialogue with a true Muslim reform group; I suggest she contact my friend Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, founder of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy (AIFD).
