[ April 23, 2024 ]
It was inevitable that we would reach this nadir in the public square after years of accommodation to the Islamic supremacists and their lapdogs on the left’s crushing adherence to sharia laws (criticsim of Islam is punishable by death) and authoritative demands that we all must submit. Any criticism of Islam – jihad-terror, misogyny, vaginal mutilation, creed apartheid, gender apartheid, and most of all Jew-hatred is met with deafening howls of “islamophobia” and “racism” (Islam is not a race but logic is the enemy now).
‘Preach!’: Ilhan Omar agrees every criticism of her is ‘Islamophobic’
Omar: Criticism of Tlaib Part of Efforts to ‘Eliminate the Public Voice of Muslims’
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) said criticisms of Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s (D., Mich.) recent remarks about Palestinian Arabs and the Holocaust were part of efforts to “eliminate the public voice of Muslims from the public discourse.”
Story continues below advertisementMSNBC host Chris Hayes introduced his interview of Omar Tuesday night by complaining Republicans were in a “sustained round of bad-faith attacks” against Tlaib, who said last week that she was calmed by the fact that Arabs provided a safe haven for Jews after the Holocaust and simultaneously mourned that this was forced on them. The statement was historically inaccurate:
“There’s always kind of a calming feeling, I tell folks, when I think of the Holocaust, and the tragedy of the Holocaust, and the fact that it was my ancestors—Palestinians—who lost their land and some lost their lives, their livelihood, their human dignity, their existence in many ways, have been wiped out, and some people’s passports,” said Tlaib, the first Palestinian-American woman elected to Congress. “And, just all of it was in the name of trying to create a safe haven for Jews, post-the Holocaust, post-the tragedy and the horrific persecution of Jews across the world at that time. And, I love the fact that it was my ancestors that provided that, right, in many ways, but they did it in a way that took their human dignity away and it was forced on them.”
Due to Republican criticism of Omar and Tlaib, however, liberal media allies have quickly leapt to their defense and focused on debunking the notion that Tlaib was saying she was calmed by the Holocaust. Hosts like Hayes and Seth Meyers have not focused on the inaccuracy of her comments and Tlaib’s ignoring of Arab efforts to destroy Israel and alliances with Nazi Germany’s efforts to exterminate the Jewish people.
Omar, no stranger to repeated controversies involving anti-Semitic or inaccurate comments about Israel and Jews, said she and Tlaib had the strength to “endure any of the mischaracterization” or efforts to vilify their message.
“I tell my sister, Rashida Tlaib, that her and I have the strength to endure any of the mischaracterization or efforts to distort and vilify and mischaracterize our message,” she said. “I think we are seeing what happens when people really see these kind of attacks for what they are. It is designed to silence, sideline, and almost eliminate [the] public voice of Muslims from the public discourse. I’m really excited that we have an opportunity to build alliances and push back and fight this attempt to marginalize our community’s voice.”
Tlaib and Omar often complain about efforts to “silence” them, although they are frequent guests on cable news outlets with millions of viewers and have large social media followings. The first two Muslim women in Congress are strong allies and have publicly backed each other during their myriad controversies in office; Tlaib became emotional in an MSNBC interview after Omar drew heat for referring to the September 11 attacks as “some people” doing “something.”
Tlaib told a sycophantic Meyers on Monday that she listened to advice that “racist idiots” would continue to distort her words unless she spoke at a fourth-grade level.

Which etiquette will prevail? There seems to be a race between
Islamophobia & Anstisemitism, and Islamophobia already seems
to have been vaccinated and impregnated against anti-Semitism.

These two spew their lies then play the victim card when people get upset over what is said. Unfortunately we are probably stuck with them if you look at their voter base. Obama did a good job of seeding muzlims to bring this Nation down. They are breeding like rats, things will only get worse, blood will be spilled before things get better.

I think that the the maverick election of Trump severely damaged, if not totally destroyed the Diabolical scheme of the “progressive” globalists to ELIMINATE the US as a Constitutional Republic!! Thank God for that!!!
I have Great faith in Americans and I think that the vile trio (AOC / Omar / Tlaib) of degenerate, hateful, overtly Anti American / Antisemitic nitwits will actually help both Trump and the GOP to win BIG in 2020…

I believe you are correct. I have tried to prepare as best as I can. I would urge everyone to be ready with a large supply of food and ammo and weapons. The one thing that give Jews and others an edge is the muzzies are stupid and are so fanatical they run to the bullets. Make sure you have plenty. This is why Israel always defeat these animals in every war.

When these two women, and those of their same belief system,
begin their commentary by stating the actual facts of history to the effect
that the area that constitutes Israel today, which should include Samaria and Judea
were not only the birth place of Judaism, and that people of that persuasion
have lived there for over 5000 years, though some were driven out from time to
time, and recognize that they are not “occupiers,” I might agree that what they
say about the Arabs of their ancestry losing their land may have some ring of
truth. If they do accept the real history, they should also conclude that their
ancestors have fought a number of wars against the state of Israel since its
creation, to destroy that nation, all of which they lost. Though there may be
some truth to the fact that the Arabs might have been displaced, the fact of
the matter is that the Arab belief system promotes and preaches the death and
destruction of Israel, and their charters contain the same death threat, making
the comments of those of Arab mentality not only without “tolerance,” but also
a clear and present danger to the Israeli’s and all of us “others.”
Whether or not one interprets the comments made, and referred to in this article
as anti-Semitic, is of little relevance, as the belief system (Islam) and the conduct
of those who accept that belief system has proven that it intends the destruction
of Israel and its people.
Therefore, anyone who follows that belief system is automatically one who will
be considered dangerous to all of us non-Muslims, as it is unlikely that those
followers will ever understand what tolerance, respect of others is all about.

Those judiciary wins are extremely significant considering how judges don’t seem to be concerned about the Constitution anymore and look to foreign law and “precedent” in many of their rulings.
However, numbers from a report by Hamas-CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) in coordination with JETPAC indicates that a high percentage of Muslims voted in 2018.
The report claims:
95% of Muslim voters participated in this year’s midterm election
• 78% of Muslim voters primarily voted for the Democratic Party candidates and 17% for Republican Party candidates.
• 46% of Muslim voters consider themselves liberal on social issues, while 35% consider themselves conservative.
• 43% of Muslim voters consider themselves fiscally conservative, while 40% consider themselves liberal.
• 26% of Muslim voters who primarily voted for Democratic candidates perceived themselves as being conservative on social issues. Moreover, 36% perceived themselves as being fiscally conservative.
• 68% of Muslim voters thought Islamophobia and anti-Muslim sentiment in the U.S. increased while 17% thought it decreased in the past year.
• 78% of Muslim voters who primarily voted for Democratic Party candidates thought Islamophobia increased in the past year. Conversely, only 33% of Muslim voters who primarily voted for Republican Party candidates thought Islamophobia increased in the past year.
• 53% of Muslim voters became more interested in politics since the 2016 presidential election, while 34% maintained the same level of interest in politics and 13% became less interested in politics.
• 55% of Muslim voters have become more actively involved in politics and/or civically engaged since the 2016 presidential election, while 45% have not.
• Out of those Muslim voters who have become more actively involved in politics and/or civically engaged since 2016 presidential election:
• 20% have primarily donated money to a political or social campaign.
• 25% have primarily donated their time by volunteering with a local charity or civic-minded or religious organization.
• 18% have primarily donated their expertise by using their skills and/or network to advance social/political engagement.
• 37% have primarily been involved in another way.
If you don’t think they have an agenda to conform America to Islam,
you really do need to pull your head out of the sand.

Felix, unbelievable reporting. I recognize that some of those elected likely come from areas that are predominately Muslim, but what scares me is that the belief system that they come from intends to dominate and overthrow our free world societies and substitute Islamic law/sharia, which would have the affect of allowing the creation of a theocracy here in America. I can only hope that somehow what is special about America’s free world societies will ultimately be accepted by future generations of the Muslim community, rejecting what their belief system tells them to do, as that may be our only hope for salvation of this country. Right now I believe there are about 4 million Muslims living here, though their numbers will grow. Let us hope that their ancestors will see the light and reject the despotism of Islam. That hope is what motivates me to push for prosecution of anyone out there who promotes domination and overthrow, and more specifically within their houses of worship.

For Ilhan and Omar, their best hope for perpetual re-election is by pandering to their predominately muslim constituents’ appetite for Jew/Israel bashing. Want to get rid of them? Fund viable 2020 opposition candidates even if they’re democrats. It shouldn’t be too difficult to dig up dirt on both of them and make it stick. It’s called playing hardball.

‘They came up with this bright shiny word ‘Islamophobia’ after seeing
the success that ‘Gay Rights’ groups in the West had had by labelling
anti-Gay hatred as ‘Homophobia’. In his 1930 book The History of the
Russian Revolution, Trotsky coined the word “racism” as a term of abuse directed at
enemies of the Bolshevik revolution, to shut down any criticism
of his totalitarian communist ideology.
Similarly now, “Islamophobia” was coined in the 1980s to close down
any criticism of Islam. It should be given no oxygen whatsoever. Islam
is a bondage of body, mind and spirit and a depravity of the human
condition. It should be called out and its political aspirations never
accommodated.’

So? Criticism of Tlaib’s insensitive remarks is only words while the anti-Semites among us resort to murder and mayhem.
What if the modern-day Jews felt they had had enough and fought back in like measure a la the “Warsaw uprising” of WWII?
That would change the whole complexion of things.

Hatred of Jews is undeniably part of Islamic Doctrine. Islamophobia is fear of Islam the religion that hates non Muslims, Jews and Christians and commands they be killed. Why is it a crime to fear the rlegion that commands it’s followers to kill you? And the endlessly accumulating evidence is that they will kill and do kill non-muslims and even their own

Tlaib is not even a resident of the 12th Congressional District that she represents. But somehow there seems to be no one with the authority to do so who is willing to oust her for lack of qualifications. Same thing for Mad Maxine, she does not live in the district she represents. And the biggest of all was Obama who was not a natural born American citizen- if he was a citizen at all.

Here’s the thing: it IS a mischaracterization of Tlaib’s awkwardly worded statement to claim she said she was “calmed by the Holocaust.” Obviously, what she meant was that she was calmed by the “fact” (her claim) that AFTER the Holocaust, the Arabs of Palestine provided a “safe haven” to the persecuted Jews, at much cost to themselves.
What any rational critic of Tlaib SHOULD have focused on, is the gross self-serving and hate-exonerating inaccuracy of the idea that Palestinian Arabs WILLINGLY tolerated Zionist Jews in their midst AT ALL — not to mention all the massacres, pogroms, and of course the genocidal wars begun by the Arabs against the Jews to finish Hitler’s project. Folks like Ms. Geller accurately did that, but too many on the right instead were happy to add false smears to that truth, which only detracted from the credibility of their message.
I’m deeply dismayed that virtually no Democrats picked up on the true implications of Tlaib’s jaw-droppingly smarmy statement while attacking their easy and more favored target, the Republicans who retailed the false propaganda that Tlaib said she was “calmed by the Holocaust.” There’s plenty of idiocy and lack of focus to go around on both sides of the political aisle, here.
If the rightist critics of Tlaib had STUCK TO THE FACTS, and to the genuine meaning of what Tlaib said, then leftists would have been FORCED to confront and discuss the falsity of what Tlaib actually said. Instead, the smearmongers on the right gave the lefties an easy out, which made the leftists look reasonable and the rightists look like fanatic Muslim-haters.
