Orientation to Islam

News sources say that the increasing trend towards Islam in American prisons and also among the deprived classes has made the authorities of this country desperate.
Al-Arabiya television network reported on Friday that the officials of the management and services of American prisons told the members of this country’s Congress that Islamism in American prisons, especially those who convert to Islam in prison, has become a threat to the national security of the United States.
The American National Security Committee in the House of Representatives held a meeting to examine the issue of Islamism in prisons. America has the highest number of prisoners in the world. Most of these African people are of American descent. At the same time, Islam is the only religion that prisoners are inclined towards very quickly, and this issue provides a suitable background and platform for Islamic organizations and groups active inside prisons to attract and mobilize prisoners. This is something that a number of former and current officials of the US National Security Committee admit.
Michael Downing of the Los Angeles Police said about this: “This is a small phenomenon, but it has very big effects. There are a large number of prisoners who are influenced by Islamists.
Al-Arabiya adds in his report that this is not the first meeting that Peter King, the head of the National Security Committee, has held regarding Islamic fundamentalism, while the new meeting, like the previous meetings, brought discussions and controversies due to its focus on Muslims.
At the same time, some members of Congress disagree with Peter King, who says that the growth of Islamism in prisons contributes to “terrorism” and believes that violent gangs in the United States have killed more Americans, and now that the approach to Islam opposes aimless and blind violence. mostajar
