Yep....literally....but he is singing again using the cat Stevens name. I love his old stuff but would never give him my money. I saw him with my own eyes say he supported the infitah on salmon Rushdie.

"For a long time, the man who’d changed his name to Yusuf Islam had completely disowned his artistic output as Cat Stevens—a confusing, dispiriting slap in the face to those it once meant a great deal to.
The man who was Cat Stevens ran Islamic schools for children, spreading the word of Allah, and acted as a spokesperson for Islam. After a while, he began making some children’s albums, but he wasn’t playing the guitar, and the music was not for his traditional fan base. In interviews, he sounded defensive and removed. Some remarks attributed to him seemed to be in line with some of the more distasteful prejudices of orthodox Islam."

So our Homeland Security allowed a terrorist supporter to play a concert in NYC in 2016.
Either Homeland Security is totally inept or you are extremely dumb. I would say it’s the latter.

And you translate all of this as him being a terrorist supporter? Is that what you are saying? Wow.

Never mind. It’s not your fault you don’t have the brainpower to understand what’s wrong with your line of thinking. I can only hope you mouth breathers don’t breed.

No, the Dept. of Homeland Security did, and put him on the "NO-Fly' list. Granted it was 2004 and things change.

"Cat Stevens on No-fly List Because of Possible Terror Links"

"The singer formerly known as Cat Stevens is forbidden from flying into the United States because of his alleged association with possible terrorists, U.S. officials said Wednesday in explaining why a London-to-Washington flight carrying the peace activist was diverted."

He expressed appreciation for the 911 attacks, so he definitely is.
