Swiss Leader, Media Watchdog, Coptic Activist Join Board of Stop Islamization of Nations (SION)

NEW YORK, Jan. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The international human rights organization Stop Islamization of Nations (SION) has just added three prominent freedom fighters to its Board of Advisers.

Oskar Freysinger is a Swiss Parliamentarian and member of the Swiss People's Party (SVP). He won international renown for his leadership of the successful campaign against the construction of minarets in Switzerland. The Swiss minaret ban was a huge victory and a major statement against the spread of Islamic law and the restriction of freedom in Switzerland and all over Europe.

Cliff Kincaid is editor of the Accuracy in Media (AIM) Report. A veteran journalist and media critic, Kincaid is also the editor of America's Survival, Inc. (ASI), which specializes in exposing the United Nations, international organizations and extremist movements. He has been a leader of the struggle to keep the jihadist propaganda network Al-Jazeera off American airwaves.

Ashraf Rameleh is the President of Voice of the Copts, an international organization standing up for the human rights of Coptic Christians and all religious minorities against religious bigotry and intolerance.

SION's President is the internationally renowned human rights activist Pamela Geller, author of Stop Islamization of America: A Practical Guide to the Resistance (WND Books). Vice President is the acclaimed author and Islam expert, Robert Spencer, author of the New York Times bestsellers The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades) and The Truth About Muhammad (both Regnery).

The SION Board of Advisers also includes Dr. Ali Sina, the renowned ex-Muslim author and founder of FaithFreedom.org; Dr. Wafa Sultan, the ex-Muslim human rights activist and author; the German pro-freedom activist Stefan Herre of Politically Incorrect; the Israeli author Dr. Mordechai Kedar; the Hindu human rights activist Babu Suseelan; and Anders Gravers of Stop Islamisation of Europe (SIOE). More prominent pro-freedom activists will be added to the Board shortly.

A worldwide summit of SION freedom activists is currently being organized; location, date and other details will be announced in the coming weeks.

SION establishes a common American/European coalition of free people determined to stand for freedom and oppose the advance of Islamic law, Sharia. Islamic law is not simply a religious system, but a political system that encompasses every aspect of life; is authoritarian, discriminatory, and repressive; and contradicts Western laws and principles in numerous particulars. SION respects Muslims as fellow human beings and rejects Islamization as a comprehensive political, religious, cultural and social system of behavior and ideology.

SION stands for:

• The freedom of speech – as opposed to Islamic prohibitions of "blasphemy" and "slander," which are used effectively to quash honest discussion of jihad and Islamic supremacism;
• The freedom of conscience – as opposed to the Islamic death penalty for apostasy;
• The equality of rights of all people before the law – as opposed to Sharia's institutionalized discrimination against women and non-Muslims.
