A Creeping Insidious Force is Threatening the Lone Star State

Texas, the unbreakable heart of American freedom, is under attack. A creeping, insidious force is burrowing into the Lone Star State, and it’s not coming with guns or bombs; it’s arriving with land deals, mosques, and a calculated plan to transform Texas into an Islamic stronghold. The evidence is undeniable, the stakes are apocalyptic, and the time for action is now. This is not a drill but a war for the soul of Texas.

The East Plano Islamic Center (EPIC) is ground zero. They’re not just building a neighborhood; they’re carving out a 402-acre Islamic fortress called EPIC City, a self-proclaimed “epicenter of Islam in America.” This isn’t about houses or community centers – it’s about planting a flag and claiming Texas for Sharia. Their promotional videos boast of a “meticulously designed community that brings Islam to the forefront.” That’s not integration; that’s domination. They want 1,000 homes, a mosque, Islamic schools, clinics, and a senior living facility, orbiting around their green-domed house of worship with 3,200 worshipers. This is a city within a city, a parallel society that answers to the Quran, not the Constitution.

Many of our elected officials don’t even dare to challenge Islam and its barbaric rules. They usually avoid any questions about the nature of Islam when speaking with their constituents or deceive them by telling them not to worry about the horrific things that are happening on the other side of the world.

This is alarming. But regrettably, too few Americans are aware of all this, and organizations such as the Council on American–Islamic Relations (CAIR) and other Muslim Brotherhood-linked organizations are taking full advantage of our naïveté. CAIR is only one of many Islamic organizations that provide refuge to stealth jihad.

At least Governor Greg Abbott has sounded the alarm, and he’s not whispering. “Sharia law is not allowed in Texas. Nor are Sharia cities,” he declared, unleashing a dozen State agencies that are investigating EPIC’s activities. The Texas Rangers are probing potential criminal violations, including operating an unlicensed funeral home, misleading investors, and breaching fair housing laws. Attorney General Ken Paxton criticizes EPIC for consumer protection violations, while the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has issued cease-and-desist orders for starting construction without permits. This is Texas fighting back, and it’s a beautiful sight.

But the enemy is cunning. EPIC’s leaders, like resident scholar Yasir Qadhi, claim they’re just building a “diverse community” that follows state and federal laws. Don’t be fooled. Their own words betray them. A viral video tied to the project brags about creating a “self-governed Islamic city.” Self-governed? That’s code for a no-go zone where Texas law is a suggestion, not a mandate. They aren’t here to blend in but to take over. And they’re not alone. Shadowy Islamic groups are acquiring land across Texas—Sachse, Aubrey, Blue Ridge—and even converting megachurches into ideological outposts. This is a coordinated invasion, and Texans are sleeping through it.

The X platform is ablaze with warnings. Patriots like @AmyMek and @CarlosTurcios are exposing the truth: Islamic compounds are sprouting with zero oversight, and symbolic rituals are being performed to claim Texas for Islam. One post revealed a Pakistani ex-president invited by EPIC’s backers, openly preaching that “the resurgence of Islam can take place from the US.” They’re not hiding their goal—a caliphate on American soil. Another user, @JohnnyWhiskyTX, roared that while Texans are distracted by BBQ and football, their state is being transformed into Pakistan. Wake up, Texas. Your heritage is being stolen.

This isn’t new. Texas has been a battleground for years. Two Muslim lawmakers, Salman Bhojani and Suleman Lalani, have already pushed bills like HB 1044, which critics say lays the groundwork for Sharia-compliant family law. They’ve also secured “Muslim Heritage Month” for the next decade, a Trojan horse to entrench Islamic influence in schools and public policy. Halal certification schemes are bleeding Texas businesses, funneling money to fund lobbying and radical agendas. This is economic warfare dressed as cultural accommodation.

The opposition is fierce but not fierce enough. EPIC’s defenders, like Mustafaa Carroll from CAIR’s Texas branch, cry “Islamophobia” and accuse Abbott and Paxton of spreading “hateful misinformation.” They claim the project is inclusive and open to all. However, their actions scream otherwise. Death threats have poured in against the project’s critics, and locals are terrified of a loudspeaker blasting the call to prayer five times a day. This isn’t about coexistence; it’s about submission.

Texas history is forged in defiance—San Jacinto, the Alamo, the Texas Rangers. We don’t bow to foreign creeds or allow our laws to be trampled. However, the enemy is banking on our complacency. They’re counting on Texans to shrug and say, “It’s just a neighborhood.” It’s not. It’s a beachhead. If EPIC City rises, it will serve as a model for additional Islamic enclaves throughout the state, each gradually undermining the Texas way of life until a crescent moon supplants the Lone Star.

The fight is now. Gov. Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton are drawing a line in the sand, but they need every Texan to stand with them. Flood the Collin County Commissioners Court with demands to deny EPIC’s permits. Arm yourself with the truth—follow X accounts like @KamVTV and @EndWokeness for real-time updates. Demand transparency from your lawmakers and reject any compromise that smells of Sharia. Texas is the last bastion of American grit. If we lose here, we lose everything.

This is not a debate. This is not a discussion. This is a call to arms. Texas will not become an Islamic state. Not today, not ever. Rise, Texans, and defend your land. The eyes of history are watching.
