American traitor Adam Gadahn, seen in an Al Qaeda video last week, was taught Islam by Muzammil Siddiqi at the Islamic Society of Orange County, and the Muslim Student Association at the University of Southern California still prominently features Gadahn’s account of his conversion to Islam at their web site: Becoming Muslim.

As I began reading English translations of the Qur’an, I became more and more convinced of the truth and authenticity of Allah’s teachings contained in those 114 chapters. Having been around Muslims in my formative years, I knew well that they were not the bloodthirsty, barbaric terrorists that the news media and the televangelists paint them to be. Perhaps this knowledge led me to continue my personal research further than another person would have. I can’t say when I actually decided that Islam was for me. It was really a natural progression.

UPDATE at 7/9/06 9:02:29 am:

Sometime during the last two days, the Muslim Student Association deleted the page linked above. But here’s Google’s cached version, captured on June 21: Becoming Muslim.

Whoever we are, whereever we're from, we should have noticed by now our behaviour is dumb, and if our chances are expected to improve, it's gonna take a lot more than trying to remove, the other race, or the other whatever, from the face of the planet altogether -- Dumb All Over, You Are What You Is
