By the time Muslim's developed the economic tools necessary to make real change in the US political system and change foreign policy, American hegemony would have declined.
Thats why, in my opinion, we need a global Ummah wide strategy that plans around the collapse of American hegemony, which is inevitable and will probably happen within a century or so.

Not to say i dont agree with you...but an Ummah wide strategy is not realistic.

Muslims in America have a severe inferiority complex and will kiss anyone and everyone's butts to get acknowledgment. This type of prostitution is going to backfire in the future.
Israeli hegemony and oppression is never going to to be challenged through the American political system.
The amount of energy it would take to do that would be enough to restore the Caliphate and to do it directly.

So its safe to say you dont believe in the American poltical system?...isnt pursuing a law degree a belief in the system ...at least at some level?
