MSM pushes narrative Muslims are heroes of the Hurricane Harvey

85

If you search the internet for “Houston mosque” or even simply “Houston,” nearly every mainstream media publication has multiple articles, being updated regularly, showcasing Houston area “mosques opening their doors to hurricane Harvey victims.” In fact, even so-called fact-checking website Snopes published an article on the matter, and not as a fact-checked one, but as a promoted news story. Many of these articles are centered on the issue that mosques opened their doors to evacuees, but Christian pastor Joel Osteen did not immediately open his megachurch doors. (Osteen later alleged that the surrounding streets were not open or safe; and the city never asked him to use the building as a shelter.) Personal feelings about Osteen aside, the media is using this as an opening to push the narrative that Muslims are the heroes of this hurricane, and the white people seeking solace were forever changed by the kindness and generosity of their Muslim neighbors.

A few issues with the story right from the start — it’s not the Houston mosques that are taking in these evacuees; it’s a few Houston Islamic Centers. Non-Muslims generally aren’t allowed in mosques, unless they are allowed entry for a reason like seeing how Muslims pray. We’ll get to that later.

The other part of the news story that is conspicuously hidden is that there were only 35 evacuees at the Champions mosque, also known as Masjid al-Salam, at the peak. As of Friday morning, 14 evacuees stayed on. The majority of those evacuees were Muslim. Brand Lane Center in Stafford, Texas claims to be housing 80 to 90 people currently. Whether those figures are accurate and whether those were families from the mosque or non-Muslim evacuees, nobody knows. The picture used in one of the articles about the Muslim heroes is a picture from the Convention Center. Out of an estimated 200,000 Muslims in the greater-Houston metro area, the headline-worthy news is that they were able to help about 125 evacuees.

Story continues below advertisement

Harvey, like all tragedies, brought out the best in people and proved once again that America houses some of the greatest and bravest individuals in the world. People of all races were going head-on into danger to save people of all races. The agenda-driven mainstream media knew they were in trouble after a video went viral where an understandably frantic mother at an evacuation center became frustrated with a CNN reporter “shoving microphones in her face.” Many shelters said they would not be letting any more news stations in because evacuees needed privacy. Then, suddenly mid-day Wednesday, CNN had one of the first front-page headlines that “mosques were opening their doors to evacuees.” Within a few hours USA Today, NPR, ABC News, and the other standard leftist media sites that masquerade as news all followed suit.

As mentioned earlier, this headline itself is incorrect. Rules regarding Muslims allowance of non-Muslims into their worshiping midst is debated among scholars. There is nothing in the Quran that explicitly denies non-Muslims from entering mosques, except the al-Masjid al-Haraam mosque in Makkah. Sheikh Muhammed Salih Al-Munajjid explains the standard of allowing non-Muslims into mosques:

“…it is permissible if it serves the interests of sharee’ah or meet a valid need, such as a person hearing something that may invite him to enter Islam, or because he needs to drink water in the mosque, or the like. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) tied up (his prisoner) Thamaamah ibn Athaal al-Hanafi in the mosque before he became Muslim, and the delegations of Thaqeef and the Christians of Najraan stayed in the mosque before they became Muslim. There were many benefits offered by doing this: they could hear the speeches and sermons of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), see people praying and reciting Qur’aan, and other benefits that are gained by those who visit the mosque. (From Fatawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah, 6/276).

If some kuffaar ask to enter the mosque so that they can see how Muslims pray, so long as they have nothing with them that could make the mosque dirty, and there are no women among them who are dressed in a provocative fashion, or any other reason not to let them in, then there is nothing wrong with allowing them to enter and sit behind the Muslims so they can see how they pray. If we fear that there is someone who may rebuke them (for not praying etc.) without realizing that they are not Muslim, we should point this out to them.”

In short, Muslims can allow non-Muslims to enter mosques for the purpose of conversion. Items that would make the mosque “dirty” include crosses, bibles, or traditional Jewish head coverings. The Houston-area mosques have not returned comment whether or not non-Muslim evacuees who sought refuge were allowed to bring such items.

Second, the Masjid al-Salam Islamic center held “34-35 evacuees” when the crowd was at its largest and Stafford held “80-90.” The George R. Brown Convention Center housed approximately 10,000 people over the past week. No doubt, the convention center is drastically larger. But is letting under a few dozen people sleep in your gym and classroom headline-worthy? It is if you have a narrative to push.

Third, the way the media reported this story left out the fact that most of the evacuees being housed in the Islamic Centers and interviewed by the media were Muslim. The only non-Muslims showcased were one elderly African-American lady interviewed by the news, and another lady who claimed to be Catholic and her husband Jewish. The Catholic evacuee went on to state, “Muslims are just like any other type of person. They’re caring, loving, giving people.” The reporter apparently thought that asking questions about race was the only way to cover a news story about hurricane evacuees.

The same article went on to state that Muslim evacuees who were not staying at an Islamic Center, but staying at the convention center, have been “blocking off a small prayer space with chairs and their shoes.” Tragedy or not, this is a part of Islamic Supremacy we can expect to see more and more in the West. It made me chuckle because last weekend, I took the train from one large, urban East Coast city to another. At one of the stops, a group of Muslims got on the train. There weren’t any seats available together, but one of the women in the group needed to sit next to who I presumed to be her male escort. The group asked the conductor to move two random patrons next to each other to solve the problem. When the conductor declined, the group became very irate and actually got off the train (after holding us up for a considerable amount of time.) Could you imagine any other religion in the United States expecting non-believers to accommodate them in such a way? It is a complete lack of adherence to Western norms, and it’s only going to get worse.

Today coincides with Eid al-Adha festival, and Muslims will begin praying around 5pm. The merciful Masrur Javed “M.J.” Khan, President of the Islamic Society of Greater Houston, assured reporters that evacuees would not be displaced or kicked out of the mosque so that Muslim patrons can pray tonight. Please note that for a city councilman and leader of all 20-area Houston mosques, there is absolutely zero information on Khan available anywhere.

While the news thought highlighting these stories would paint Muslims in a good light, it’s actually rather frightening that Muslims handle tragedies as a means to enforce Islamic supremacy on the vulnerable. It also makes you wonder why none of the white liberal evacuees asked to be transported to the mosques they so vehemently defend.

I read that the original Tweet that started the whole Osteen rumor came from: Charles Clymer, a liberal activist who fancies himself a journalist, is based in Washington, D.C. Since he is several thousand miles from Houston, he obviously cannot provide a firsthand account of the situation on the ground at (and more importantly inside) Lakewood Church. Instead, he tweeted text messages purported to be from a member of the Houston chapter of the liberal anti-Trump group Indivisible. https://newstalk1130.iheart.com/featured/common-sense-central/content/2017-08-29-the-truth-about-joel-osteens-church/#.WaX8rf4i1Y4.facebook

Promising his gang of bandits a deal they could not refuse :riches if they won robbing the caravans and then demanding 20% of the booty including sex slaves for himself. Enrichment was easy. If his gang lost the fight and died, then they would be rewarded with heavenly virgins , rivers of wine and exotic fruits ( unavailable in the desert) as ‘ martyrs’ for the cause.
Win-win so long they never left Islam as then their fate sealed without rewards at all in this or the next life.

O yes, the qur’an is full of very accurate scientific information, as the perfect word of stupid, it is inalterable, as no one in heaven or earth could come up with anything stupider.

Sunan Abu Dawud 67–I heard that the people asked the Prophet of Allah (peace be upon him): Water is brought for you from the well of Buda’ah. It is a well in which dead dogs, menstrual cloths and excrement of people are thrown. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) replied: Verily water is pure and is not defiled by anything.

Things get worse, however. In the following passage from Ibn Majah, we learn that it’s okay to drink water with a dead donkey carcass floating in it!

Sunan Ibn Majah 520–It was narrated that Jabir bin Abdullah said: “We came to a pond in which there was the carcass of a donkey, so we refrained from using the water until the Messenger of Allah came to us and said: ‘Water is not made impure by anything.’ Then we drank from it and gave it to our animals to drink, and we carried some with us.”

And let’s not forget this gem:

Sunan Ibn Majah 521–It was narrated that Abu Umamah Al-Bahili said: “The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Water is not made impure by anything except that which changes its smell, taste and color.'”

This is, of course, totally false. Water can be filled with deadly germs that do not affect smell, taste, or color.

Let’s conclude with a classic:

Sahih al-Bukhari 5782–Allah’s Messenger said, “If a fly falls in the vessel of any of you, let him dip all of it (into the vessel) and then throw it [i.e. the fly] away, for in one of its wings there is a disease and in the other there is healing (antidote for it) i.e. the treatment for that disease.”

If I were a Muslim looking for something miraculous to justify Islam, I would argue that it was a miracle that Muhammad’s followers didn’t all die from the germs and diseases he exposed them to with his horribly unsanitary rulings!

I don’t think Islam’s hadiths would be blasphemous. More to the point is that if you quote a hadith then muslims can say “oh but that particular one isn’t true”. But they can’t say that about a quran verse or else they would be disbelieving against their perfect quran. So only bother with quran verses. Numerous verses of Allah’s Quran point out that the earth is flat or like a flat carpet rolled out [18:86, 18:90, 5:19, 20:53, 43:10, 50:7, 51:48, 71:19, 78:6, 79:30, 88:20, 91:6]. So this is beyond debate except among crooks who want to sell you their hoax round-the-world trips.

Why did these boys get rabies from screwing a donkey, since beastiality is acceptable to islam? Does not Alice protect muslims, or are they supposed to use protection when copulating with animals?

According to the Moroccan daily Al Akhbar in its August 10 edition, the “sexually frustrated children and teenagers” stayed at the Mechraa Belksiri Hospital for one week to receive rabies vaccinations after the animal transmitted the disease to them, to the “distress and horror” of their families.

Sadly, the local authorities ordered the owner of the donkey to slaughter it to avoid further risk of spreading the disease. The authorities are also searching for others who had “admired” the donkey, in order to limit the spread of rabies among the town folk.

Parents, “in the utmost secrecy, hastened to have their children vaccinated in case they had approached the animal.” According to Al Akhbar, the number of infections could be much higher, as some families preferred to take their children to hospitals outside the region to avoid humiliation.

Lakewood Church, which was founded by Osteen’s father in the 1950s, had posted on social media Monday that the venue was “inaccessible due to severe flooding” following Hurricane Harvey, which has been downgraded to a tropical storm.
Photos provided by the church showed standing water in hallways and the parking lot. The church already had a flood wall in place following a previous storm. The church occupies the former home of the NBA’s Houston Rockets. http://www.cnn.com/2017/08/29/us/joel-osteen-houston-megachurch-criticism/index.html?fref=gc&dti=110841015612178

CNN’s insane hatred of Christians.
“The hypocritical irony here seems obvious, because Osteen is one of America’s leading proponents of prosperity theology, the so-called theory that God blesses good Christians with material wealth. He makes the case that the Lord has blessed him because of his piousness, and his bank account is proof. Osteen is worth some $50 million, lives in a $10.5 million home, and says “it’s God’s will for you to live in prosperity instead of poverty.” http://www.cnn.com/2017/08/29/opinions/joel-osteen-hypocrisy-harvey-filipovic-opinion/index.html

Flood issues aside, Joel Osteen has demonstrated repeatedly he is a false minister by cherry-picking a few scriptures for prosperity-heads, and essentially denying the whole counsel of God by avoiding verses demonstrating that he is a false minister, such as II Timothy 4:1-4.

The CAMERA rep. who spoke to my ACT for America chapter said lying about Israel is commonplace in the enemedia (or alternatively repeating the lies of others [e.g. “palestinians”]). He went on to say the retractions that come later are always back-page affairs that never get the coverage the original lies did.

As soon as the lame stream media started bashing Osteen ‘ s church, my very first thought was, ok, what is the pretend religion doing for the plight of the flooded victims in Houston? The answer, of course, is absolutely nothing. Does anyone for one second believe that they unlocked the doors to their walled off compounds to the non-believers? I sure as heck don’t. (Of course, the striking difference between any Christian church, with no walls, and a fortified compound called a mosque is really all anyone needs to know about this make believe religion. )

The article is incorrect about the Qur’an. It definitely DOES ban non-muslims from going into mosques.
Quran 9:17-18 states that it is not appropriate for non-Muslims to visit mosques and if they do then hell-fire will be their punishment. Though needless to say most “Muslims” won’t tell you that because most “Muslims” are very clueless about what the Qur’an actually says (such as the earth being flat, e.g. 18:86-92). In line with that cluelessness in the UK last year during “Islamic (pseudo-)Awareness Week” there were numerous invitations of non-Muslims to visit mosques by way of the usual Islam-is-nice-and-friendly operation. Well, they are trying.

What utter tasteless nonsense that ragheads and their complicit media cronies would see fit to politicize a natural disaster of Biblical proportions. The Houston area recorded rainfall beyond the 50″ threshold for the first time ever. In the same vein, there has been no recorded increase in the intensity of such storms since 1900, despite what the global warming lunatics would have you believe.

At the airport LAX I saw a Muslim lady yelling at the airport staff..I want up behind her and literally kicked her ass..And then I strangled her to death with her own hijab..I was applauded by everyone and was called a hero and carried on a seven foot Hispanic woman’s boney shoulders…Check The news about my heroism…It should be on CNN.

They are under demonic instruction from the qur’an not to.

islam specifically forbids assistance to non muslims.

“Quran (8:55) – “Surely the vilest of animals in Allah’s sight are those who disbelieve”

Quran (28:86) – “Never be a helper to the unbelievers.”

Quran (48:29) – Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard (ruthless) against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves”.

Abu Dawud (41:4832) – The Messenger of Allah [said] “Do not keep company with anyone but a believer and do not let anyone eat your food but one who is pious.”

Ibn Kathir v.2 p.213 – No believer shall kill any believer for any non-believer. Nor shall he help any non-believer against a believer – People wonder why Muslims are not at the forefront of the fight against Islamic terror.

Those who are blessed by Allah insult Allah by giving away their “gifts” to those whom Allah has not favored:

Quran (16:71) – “Allah has bestowed His gifts of sustenance more freely on some of you than on others: those more favored are not going to throw back their gifts to those whom their right hands possess, so as to be equal in that respect. Will they then deny the favors of Allah?”

I looked and found these but not one has any actual pictures. Although, there are some of piles of donated items, supposedly at a mosque. We have no way of knowing. It is my suspicion that any donations collected are actually only going to other Muslims.As the one imam said, Muslims are not allowed to help the infidels. I also looked up the refusal to help non~Muslims, and all I got was how they are helping, but, like I said, with no pix.

Thank you once again, Pamela Geller. I just socked it to Huffington Post. Not that they will care. But please post your comments on some of these sites and be sure to mention it’s fake news. This article will help you in making your comments.

Personally, I wouldn’t go near a mosque.. Enter to seek shelter as a Christian or a Jew and leave as a muslim??
How much will the mosque s bill the city of Houston for their generousity?

Islamites helping islamites ! There’s a headline worth noting , given the sectarian war that’s gone on..almost from the ‘birth’ of islam . Something that should be noted – the midwife lubed mo’ham,mud’s mother with lard , and enjoyed several BLT’s while observing the incipient mother’s travails .
yup . most indeedly

How could you Pamela Geller fathom the fact that Mozlems helped non Mozlems in Houston. Thats just so against the white nationalist, neo Nazis narrative, that you had to chime in your 2 cents. The facts on the ground are real, Muslims without being asked by anyone were helping fellow Human Beings , irregardless of race, ethnicity or religion. You Geller on the other hand have not even gien a PENNY to the victims of harvey, instead you have simply perpetuated hate to keep your anti-mozlem dollars rolling. You are nothing but a Silly Bitch!!!!
