Anabelle Lima-Taub is their first victim of 2019.
Hallandale commissioner censured for ‘hate speech.’ She says her life’s in danger
Hallandale Beach voted Wednesday night to censure one of its city commission members over remarks she made on social media that denigrated the first Palestinian-American woman elected to the U.S. Congress.
In a 3-2 vote, the commission officially condemned the comments of Commissioner Anabelle Lima-Taub who said in a Facebook post that Rep. Rashida Tlaib, a Democrat from Detroit, might become “a martyr and blow up Capitol Hill.” Tlaib is one of the first of two Muslim women who was elected to Congress in November.
Lima-Taub has remained unapologetic for the viral Facebook post, stating Tlaib’s support for boycotting Israel equates her with terrorist organizations like Hamas and Hezbollah.
But Commissioner Michelle Lazarow, who sponsored the resolution condemning Lima-Taub, joined with Vice Mayor Sabrina Javellana, who co-sponsored the resolution, and Commissioner Mike Butler to reprimand their colleague for her “bigotry” and creating an unsafe environment for Hallandale Beach’s Muslim community.
“This controversy has brought out hate like I have never seen before,” said Lazarow. “It has also brought about political threats.
“To those who support my colleague’s hateful remarks, I am not worried about losing your vote in the 2020 election. My dignity is worth far more to me,” Lazarow said.
Lima-Taub and Mayor Joy Adams voted against the measure. Many in the crowd expressed contempt for the resolution.
Hundreds of people came out to speak out at the meeting. Some condemned what they called hate speech. Others encouraged Lima-Taub, who started the meeting by announcing that her life was in danger. She blamed other members of the commission who had vociferously rebuked her statements.
Others who spoke at Wednesday’s meeting prior to the vote said it was Lima-Taub who was creating a dangerous situation — for Muslims and people of color in Hallandale Beach and across the country – with her calling Tlaib a potential terrorist.
“You have crossed lines of white supremacy. You have activated a dark side,” said Rasha Mubarak, of the Young Florida Democrats.
Adams struggled to control the crowd of Lima-Taub’s supporters who flooded City Hall. She was forced to call a 10-minute recess after Mubarak was drowned out by boos and hisses from others in the audience. Adams offered no position on Lima-Taub’s comments, and reduced the controversy to what she deemed a petty argument between Lima-Taub and Lazarow.
During the break, Mubarak said she did not feel safe in the commission chambers, but was determined to speak out. She and others who spoke against Lima-Taub had to be escorted from the room by police.
Throughout the night, Lima-Taub maintained it was her life that was in the most danger. Lima-Taub said she had received death threats from a Hamas-affiliated person after Lazarow, in her resolution, called Lima-Taub “Islamophobic” and hateful.
“Tonight may very well be my last night alive,” Lima-Taub said during the commission meeting.
She said if she is found dead in future days, she holds Lazarow and her political consultant Evan Ross personally responsible. Several people turned around to look at Ross, one person even putting up his thumb and forefinger mimicking a gun and pulling the trigger.
“Anabelle Lima-Taub will say anything to distract from her hate speech and promotion off bigotry,” Ross said in response. “She will blame everyone and everything. What she won’t do is take responsibility for her own actions. I’m proud to stand with the Anti-Defamation League in opposing hate.”
Lima-Taub’s comments were denounced by many civil rights organizations, including the Anti-Defamation League and the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
The commission chamber was packed with Lima-Taub’s supporters who had been rallying outside City Hall for most of the afternoon. The group included people with a wide range of politics including those who support Israel and denounce the boycott movement against Israel for its treatment of Palestinians.
Others said they supported Lima-Taub’s First Amendment rights.
Lima-Taub’s group of supporters also included controversial Internet personality Laura Loomer, who was recently kicked off Twitter for anti-Muslim comments and has been banned from Uber and Lyft for complaining that she couldn’t find a non-Muslim driver.
“I’m already taking BS for you,” said Lima-Taub before hugging Loomer prior to the meeting. Loomer had called out her supporters to Hallandale Beach in a Facebook post Tuesday.
“ATTENTION IF YOU LIVE IN FLORIDA!!!!” Loomer wrote. “We need back up to protest a Jihadi mob.”
Several local Muslim organizations called a protest, but many did not stick around to speak at the meeting. Mubarak said several young Palestinian women left after being harassed by Lima-Taub’s supporters outside City Hall.
A group of people asking for Lima-Taub’s resignation tried to hold a news conference prior to the commission meeting, only to be heckled by the commissioner’s supporters.
“We are here to say clearly that in Hallandale Beach, in South Florida, across America hate is not accepted,” said Ammar Ahmed, the South Florida Director of Emgage. “We want an apology … to have a recant of everything she said.”
Meanwhile, dozens of people holding Israeli flags, amid signs calling Tlaib a terrorist, gathered outside City Hall.
Yakov Tarshish, who was holding an Israeli flag, tried to stop those speaking, including some of whom identified as being Jewish.
“You are an embarrassment to Judaism,” he said.
Although Lima-Taub has said her comments were specific to Tlaib’s views on Israel, not everyone saw the distinction.
“This is about her [Tlaib’s] identity, the way she prays,” Mubarak said. “And we find commissioner Lima-Tuab’s comments repulsive, disgusting and unproductive. As you can see, it’s creating chaos.”

Lazarow says this situation has brought out hate like she never saw before, that’s because of the censorship.
There are Africans enslaved, some castrated by Muhammadists,
people tortured, imprisoned for selling land to Jews by Fatah,
girls forcibly declitorized having lifelong pain being raped,
atheists tortured, imprisoned in Saudi Arabia, Pakistan & so on,
they harbor hate, but it’s censored.

If one part of the claim is false, the entire claim is false and thus not protected speech.

…
That is what Demokkkrats think of pro-Semites and other normal Americans and Westerners … and the West …
Drones need to wake up and defend Lima-Tuab … or these Demokkkrats are going to go Full Nastie …
Don’t think they won’t “because it can’t happen here” … They said the same thing in Germany.
The time is getting short … We need to drive the stake in the vampire’s heart before we lose our short Trump reprieve.

When commentary that does not promote violence, and speaks
about things that Islam promotes, which results in this constant attack by
those believers and the ultra-liberals who refuse to accept the reality of what
Islam intends to do, we are again seeing the quagmire that is befalling this
country. Unless we stop these foolish people from constantly using accusations
of racism in every truth that is said, we will destroy our first amendment
rights and continue to cause great harm to our country. We need to stand up
constantly to oppose those who see their beliefs as justification for
domination and control as Islam projects.

The Left have already trashed our 1st Amendment. Nobody has condemned Tlaib for her comment. Only the comment that points out something that has some reality behind it. Tlaib may not be a suicide bomber. But that doesn’t mean she won’t support or enable someone who is. Tlaib is clearly an Islamic supremacist (aka orthodox Mulsim) who will never criticize anything Islamic but be hypercritical of anything Jewish or “islamo-fact-ish”.

I’m getting sick and tired of the hypocrisy…Muslims declare free speech when they practice anti-Semitism….but when anyone else calls out Islam and Muslims….then it’s hate speech…..our schools and universities are hotbeds of this discrimination…
I’m to the point I feel more and more like I’m living in George Orwell’s “Nineteen Eighty Four.”

It’s called sharia blasphemy laws.
Under our laws, but also under sharia, they can say what ever they want (assuming it is in alignment with Islamic orthodoxy). But they enforce sharia when someone points out an unfortunate truth about Islam because it paints Islam unfavorably even if it is true. That’s when it’s Islamophobic spoken by an “racist”… even though Islam is not a race. The sad part is we self-enforce sharia “blasphemy” laws when it comes to anything Islamic. Note:, Blasphemy does not equate to making a false statement. One can quote the Quran and present Mohammad’s example and sayings from Islamic sources AND an imam could say the exact same thing BUT if a non-Muslim says it in critique of Islam, because it is a critique of Islam, it is blasphemy… if they don’t want you saying it, it falls under blasphemy.
Ms. Lima-Taub blasphemed Islam and therefor must be punished… if this were an Islamic nation under sharia and unfortunately even in a country that is not an Islamic nation that is not under sharia but self-imposes sharia for political correctness by Islam’s useful idiots.

Muslims may be savages, but they are not stupid. They are following in the footsteps of blacks who chose to throw away the teachings of MLK. They know that the MSM and Democrats are corrupt and are seizing the opportunity as a power grab.

The thing to remember about Muslims is that they are intrinsically disposed to violence. The Koran commands it of them in about a hundred places. (Ever wonder why so many converts to Islam are made in prisons?) Thus Miss Lima-Taub has shown considerable courage in speaking as she did — and now has good reason to fear for her well being.
As has been said many times, the radical Muslim wants to kill you. The moderate Muslim wants the radical Muslim to kill you.

Most of what we are seeing these days in censorship, silencing those who speak out, and the stopping of free speech and thought……is right out of Hitler’s playbook…
…and for comparison, you young folks out there….think Voldemort and the Ministry of Magic…

“With the arrogant denial of de-valuing people, destroying great cities, inner-cities, and states: Detroit, Chicago, Newark, Baltimore, etc. and now California…
How does anyone respect a DEM or a LIB when:
NO loyalty, intent or even ability to help REAL Americans!
NO loyalty toward keeping a sovereign America safe and great!
NO method or policy to create wealth, only taking wealth and dispersing wealth to others to gain political power and wealth.
NO regard for working taxpayers as taxpayer dollars are given to non-producing capable people as FREE stuff to buy votes.
NO ability to win elections without lies, crudely demeaning opposing candidates, buying votes from enslaved welfare people, and falsely disputing the results of a lost election.
NO effort and DENIAL to prosecute proven corrupt politicians.
NO capabilities to maintain economic strength or recover poor economies: Detroit, Chicago, Newark, Baltimore, California, etc.
NO concern or efforts to improve the personal REAL personal self-value and skills of Americans.
NO concern about endangering REAL American citizens as they encourage and protect illegals and support sanctuary cities.
NO pride – poor-sports — accepting others who won elections.
NO respect – only hate & violence — for making America better.
NO effort to mandate positive student academic performance by DEM/Union Teachers… yet job security, raises, and benefits.
NO acceptance and respect for proven-accomplished leadership.
NO ability to tell or handle the truth.”
