PREFACE
From every area of the free world, strong evidence is reaching us of crimes and atrocities committed by Islamic fundamentalists in the name of Allah. A great many Muslims, “educated” people, and our elected leaders know about these crimes; those that do not know, do not know because they do not want to know. They do not ask questions because they are afraid of the answers. They fear the knowledge of what they are tolerating; but the ones among us who are open to seeking truth and justice, know how to differentiate between criminals and their victims. The people of the civilized world now have to prove by deed where they stand; mere words will not be believed by a world that witnesses the crimes against God’s people and my Christian brethren.
In the past I have sinned greatly against God’s people, but because of the grace I received through Christ, I am working to rescue them from injustice.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
This book has been my 15-year journey out of a lifetime experience of searching for answers regarding Bible Prophecy. As in the story of Moses, the introvert who faced the world’s most powerful leader, I stand before of the prophets of Ba’al risking it all. If Moses was slow of speech, I too had my trouble with English being my second language. But thanks be to God for providing Aarons in my path. Such was Keith Davies my partner and manager who worked full-time assuring the completion of this book on time, and such was his wife Deborah for patiently assisting him to accomplish this mission; Such was Cheryl Taylor who designed and prepared the book for desktop layout, helping with editing along the way. Thanks also to Joel Richardson who partnered with me in writing this book, and to J. H. Hadley who came in at the end of this project to help edit. Each one contributed to reach our deadline for print.
Like Moses, this mission has had its blessings and its curses. The blessings provided by the Lord were a wealth of Biblical understanding; the opportunity to develop a deeper knowledge of long suffering and righteous anger. Yet, if Moses endured Pharaoh’s curses so that God’s people could be set free, I will accept the weight of this knowledge because it is essential in restoring America and the Church.
A special thanks goes to the two women God has placed in my path—to my wife who was the catalyst that enabled me to find the truth, and has borne the burden of many days when I am away from her and our two sons—to my mother who endured 35 years of suffering, living in exile against her will in a Muslim society, silently praying for my salvation.
Finally, thanks to you, my readers and supporters, who with your letters of encouragement and strong attendance wherever I go, means that we can continue the fight for truth and justice.
