Walid Shoebat, former radicalized Muslim willing to die for the cause of Jihad until he converted to Christianity in 1994, was a member of the PLO and involved in terror activity. He was imprisoned in Jerusalem for three weeks where he was recruited to plant a bomb in Bethlehem. No one was injured, but it forced his parents - his mother, an American, and his father a Palestinian Arab - in 1978 to send him to the United States to study at Loop College in Chicago Illinois. There, he was recruited at a hotel “Terror Conference” by Jamal Said, a founder of the IAP (Islamic Association of Palestine) and Imam at one of the largest mosques in Chicago. The IAP was a forerunner to today’s Hamas terror organization and also to the terror front group CAIR (Council for American Islamic relations). In the early 1980s he was being trained for Jihad activities in the USA along with many other young foreigners as well as US citizens. The Imams were the prime recruiters for terrorism then as they are still today and terror conferences are held all over the USA to this day.
As an experienced former terrorist, Walid has spoken all over America and the world including Chile, Mexico, Canada, the UK and South Africa. He has also appeared on national television stations all over the world including CNN, CNN International, FOX News, ITN, RTE, NBC, CBS, and ABC. He has also been featured on BBC radio 4 and 5.
He warns that terrorists are radicalized through undue influence by Islamist organizations beginning with their local Mosque as well as from abroad. His message is a clear one, but often criticized for it's strong Christian perspective. Monday morning on the online radio broadcast, Will and Mike Live!, Mr. Shoebat candidly and freely discussed his worldview and understanding of this growing threat to the safety and liberty of all people.

came the Islamic Revolution, a movement which surprised both America and Israel and led to the ousting of pro-Israel Shah and replaced him with the anti-Israel Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomeini. The outcome of the revolution abruptly wiped out years of positive friendship and strong relations between Israel and Iran and has led to the scenario we face today, an arch-foe with nuclear ambitions and a goal of extermination.
