My latest in PJ Media:
Urooj Rahman is a housing attorney for Bronx Legal Services who is currently in legal trouble for tossing a Molotov cocktail at a NYPD cruiser during the recent riots in New York City. She is also a committed activist for the Palestinian jihad, having published agitprop spreading false claims of Palestinian victimhood. Despite the hot water she is in now, however, she has a bright future as an ideological leader of both the Left and the Islamic jihad. In an interview before her attack, she enunciated the common goal of both movements: “This s–t won’t ever stop unless we f–kin’ take it all down.”
In both the interview and during her attack, Rahman kept a Palestinian keffiyeh close to her face. Her sartorial choice was not incidental. With her attempted torching of the police cruiser (her Molotov cocktail didn’t light), she brought Palestinian jihad tactics to the riots in the U.S. She also revealed the congruence between the ideology of the Left in America today and that of jihadists, not just the Palestinians, but all over the world.
Regarding Israel, the goal of the Palestinian jihad is and always has been to “f–kin’ take it all down.” That is the meaning of the increasingly common slogan “From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will Be Free.” If “Palestine” must be “free” from the Jordan River all the way to the Mediterranean Sea, the Palestinian cause is not about ending “occupation,” or stopping “settlements,” or anything that the establishment media tells us about it. It is, rather, about destroying Israel altogether, as The Palestinian Delusion documents in detail. Until that goal is attained, as Urooj Rahman elegantly put it, “This s–t won’t ever stop.”
The same thing can be said of the jihad all around the world. As The History of Jihad shows, for 1,400 years the goal of Islamic jihad activity has essentially been “This s–t won’t ever stop unless we f–kin’ take it all down.” While there were occasional periods in which jihad violence against non-Muslim states grew less active and virulent, these pauses were not occasioned by a general rejection in the Islamic world of the idea that jihad must be pursued, or by reform of Islamic doctrine. The doctrine always remained; the wherewithal to put it into practice ebbed and flowed.
Although non-Muslim scholars and analysts routinely insist that Islam is a religion of peace and jihad is a spiritual struggle, Islamic scholars have stated otherwise throughout the history of Islam. In his book War and Peace in the Law of Islam, Majid Khadduri, an Iraqi scholar of Islamic law of international renown, says this about jihad: “The state which is regarded as the instrument for universalizing a certain religion must perforce be an ever expanding state. The Islamic state, whose principal function was to put God’s law into practice, sought to establish Islam as the dominant reigning ideology over the entire world….The jihad was therefore employed as an instrument for both the universalization of religion and the establishment of an imperial world state.”
Or more succinctly and pungently: “This s–t won’t ever stop unless we f–kin’ take it all down.”
There is much more. Read the rest here.

Why is this piece of shit in the USA ? Deport her immediately after she gets out of Prison for attempted MURDER these of these Policeman/ Policeladies
Walter Sieruk says
The Antifa hooligans, have ,of course embraced the policy of the Antifa terror entity the joining in the movement of a Communist-Islamic alliance .Also known as Red/Green alliance.
Little do the Marxist -minded Antifia members realize or understand that they are only being used tools of the jihadists and that if ,this will not happen, the US Constitutional government falls and the jihadists gain complete power for Islam and likewise enact Sharia law in what once was the USA ,the jihadists will be finished with their Antifa stooges ,useful idiots , and then eliminate them.
What blind and unknowing fools those Antifa people truly are !
Westman says
I wonder, with these nutty cities who are defunding or eliminating part of their police force, if it will become like the Old West with deputised citizens riding shotgun with the Fire Department and other city services. Antifa and thugs have already created fire scenarios to bring the Fire Department and shoot at the Firemen. If these crazy city councils and Mayors think they have problems with a police force….
Grace says
They should defund a city or two as trial cities. Let the world see what happens when mobs rule.

De Blasio is talking about doing this to NYC, and the Minneapolis City Council has already voted 9-3 to defund their police force, over the objections of the Mayor.
Mark Spahn (West Seneca, NY) says
[1] I haven’t followed this case closely, but what flammable liquid was in the beer bottle that Urooj Rahman threw into the police car? Maybe this was just a fake firebomb so that she could get publicity while escaping liability.
[2] It would be nice if there were a website that gave all the details of recent events in the news, allowing one to answer questions like these. Is there such a website?

She’s right, this sh*t won’t stop.
Not until every mosque is taken down, until every Koran is shredded, every antifa thug is gone, until every social engineer is silenced.
Then, when compassion, free thought, free speech and common sense regain it’s place.
Only then will the civilized world know peace.
Wellington says
Best to keep in mind that many fools, and specifically those aligned with the forces of barbarism and anti-civilization, can be well educated. Education alone without common sense, accurate knowledge and moral intelligence can have all kinds of unwelcome results. Often very destructive, even lethal, results.
After all, Joseph Goebbels had a PhD. So does Noam Comsky. So did Timothy Leary.
James Lincoln says
Wellington,
Absolutely 100% correct.
Every month, I go to several state medical board websites that I follow due to my position in my regional medical society.
Admittedly, only a tiny fractional percent of physicians do incredibly bad or just stupid things. But it does happen. Physicians with four years of undergrad, four years of medical school, 3 to 5 years of residency training, fellowships, board certification exams, etc.
Violations usually involve sexual relations with patients, criminal domestic violence, drug/alcohol abuse, insurance fraud, etc. Interestingly, actual gross medical malpractice is actually quite far down on the list.
And some of these physicians are only a few years into their practice – and may lose it all.
commonsense says
Indeed, Wellington.
Rufolino says
A good education does not preclude people from being stupid. Dangerously stupid too, more dangerous than regular fools.
gravenimage says
Grimly true, Rufolino.
Phil Copson says
Giving people an education assists them to achieve their goals, but it also reinforces their sense that they know better than other people, leading the arrogant and entitled to conclude that those who disagree with them are not worthy of consideration.
Naturally, if you educate psychopaths and pander to them, you end up with more effective psychopaths – Pol Pot, Bin Laden, and Ayatollah Khomeini all spent time living in the West, and their inability to cope with the idea that others were free to behave in ways of they personally disapproved, seems to have produced nothing more useful than mania and genocidal rage.

Hit the nail on the head.
Lilith Wept says
It depends on the education, also, doesn’t it? if you send even a Christian child who has been publicly educated to a liberal college , there is a 60% chance they will Apostate winning those 4 years.
If you send a Christian home schooled child
to a Liberal leftist college , that percentage drops .
Colleges and indeed, all State sponsored public education, today doesnt tolerate any dissenting from the liberal left aganda…So state “education” is not truely “ educating” it’s indoctrinating everyone to the leftist aganda.
If they are even slightly predisposed to the Liberal,aganda, or Islam , then they will seek out subjects and facts that support their beliefs. While ignoring anything that opposes.
This is why you cannt reason or debate with a liberal , or a Moslem. They resort to ad hominem attacks, violence, simply ignore any argument or facts you present,, claim your facts or argument are wrong, or corrupted, and then they , twist their “facts” to say or mean something that they don’t , and use this to support their argument.
It should be designated a form of mental illness!!

Leftist/Jihadist Common Goal: ‘This S–t Won’t Ever Stop Unless We F–kin’ Take It All Down’
…………….
Yes–this is their common goal–the destruction of America and the rest of the free West.
tgusa says
The system is primarily a leftist/democrat employment agency. Just examine how a majority of people working within the system vote and who they support. They spent all that time infiltrating the system and now they want to tear it down. Tear it down, government agencies, the schools, entertainment, etc. Well that will create a lot of unemployed leftists/democrats. What is even crazier is many members in good standing of “the system” are agreeing with the destructive. This is a true definition of suicide bomber or perhaps playing Russian roulette with a fully loaded gun.

One of the major problems with banning the Qur’an is that it is not Muslims who will stay away from it–it is law abiding Infidels, who will never be able to learn what Islam has in store for us.

Emprical data show that among Muslims, education and wealth INCREASE the risk of terrorism:
https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/03/140319085541.htm
The data are precisely opposite to the usual sob story exhorting westerners to pay jiza as a way of alleviating poverty and reducing terrorism. Poverty is not a risk factor, WEALTH and EDUCATION are. This pattern may be unique to Muslims. It makes sense: education and wealth enable people to do what they believe in doing. In the case of Muslims, that means jihad.
Al Qaeda terrorist Ayman al-Zawahiri is a physician. Osama bin Laden had a university education and inherited USD $30 million.
Remember Pakistani doctor and Mayo Clinic researcher terrorist Muhammad Masood MD:
https://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2020/05/15/fmr-mayo-clinic-researcher-muhammad-masood-indicted-on-terrorism-charge/
Other Muslim doctors have distinguished themselves in other ways.
“A Detroit-area doctor who authorities say gave cancer treatment drugs to patients who did not need them — including some who didn’t actually have cancer — was sentenced Friday to 45 years in prison.
Dr. Farid Fata, 50, pleaded guilty in September to giving cancer treatments to misdiagnosed patients, telling some they had a terminal blood cancer called multiple myeloma. He pleaded guilty to 13 counts of Medicare fraud, one count of conspiracy to pay or receive kickbacks and two counts of money laundering.”
https://www.cnn.com/2015/07/10/us/michigan-cancer-doctor-sentenced/index.html
Also this:
“Dr. Shafeeq Sheikh, who was convicted of raping an an acute asthma patient during a night shift when he was a resident at Baylor College of Medicine in 2013, received 10 years probation”
https://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Ex-Baylor-doctor-awaits-sentence-for-sexual-13163835.php
The Koran calls infidels the worst of all created beings, so it should come as no surprise when Muslim doctors treat them accordingly.

OREN says
What I am saying is small talk, but the left certainly does not get that s#*t will continue to happen with the police forever. The only question is it A large, proportional problem or not. Considering that black violence has outpaced white violence 10 to 1 for decades and the left has never dealt with it, I think we can say the left, the muslims and the blacks s#*t will not stop until we tare down their stupid arguments, their moronic opinions, their low IQ, failures of ideas, their s#*t hole cities, their filthy embarrassing schools, their bankrupt economics, and their lies about equality, opposition to racism, and bs morals, that allow millions to suffer overseas, and hundreds of thousands of needless victims of violent crimes in the USA to occur every year, while they bitch about less than A dozen bad incidents with the police every year. In G-d I trust.
David Darman says
Would someone kindly help me make better sense of the comments here (and elsewhere on this blog) by defining “leftist” and “liberal” and ‘progressive?” I don’t see where RS has done so (in a non-tautological way).
Paul Stein says
With zero actual evidence, Robert Spencer and Jihad Watch have created a non-existent Red-Green conspiracy. This is pure garbage conpiracy theory nonsense. Yes, there is a lot of idiological talk by the Socialist anti-Semitic elements on college campuses and Congress (we know all the names) declaring allegiance towards a Palestinian state, but that, however intensely uncomfortable for Jews in America, is about as far as things go. Obviously, Radical Jihad is alive and dangerously well here in the U.S., as seen by the uptick in recent attacks during the last two weeks. But, make no mistake, the Radical Jihadists are USING Americans and their protests purely as a smokescreen to carry out their nefarious efforts. The Jihadists have always USED gullible Americans, and Europeans, in every possible way. They see our sense of fair play and backing the underdog as pure weaknesses to capitalize on.
But, when Robert Spencer and Jihad Watch try to link every valid progressive movement to some Red-Green cabal, they force the good readers to make the decision about what to do. Should a person back the great efforts of Jihad Watch to alert all Americans to the obvious Radical Jihad threat but 1) also swallow pure garbage propaganda that many Americans would never agee with, or 2) just walk away? Right now, touting this fake Red-Green conspiracy is making Jihad Watch appear to be a pure ultra-Right-wing joke. Please stop, or I’m heading to choice 2.

Odd that Paul Stein actually affirms a lot of what Robert Spencer himself notes.
Paul Stein says
Well, it’s not odd, it’s simple. There’s blatant reality and there’s blatant fiction. Green is a true danger. Red is just stupid and annoying. The former deserves our extreme attention. The latter should just be ignored. Anyone trying to link the two together seriously DILUTES the effort that needs to be made to ensure our immediate and long-term safety.

She committed a terrorist act and should be treated as such. Her level of education and the fact that she has a law degree says even more about her being a danger to American citizens. She should receive a lengthy prison term followed with deportation if appropriate.
David Darman says
Gee whiz, Graven, I don’t recall saying here that “letting all Muslims flood in” is a good thing or even saying that “electing the man who has VOWED to let Muslims ‘FLOOD’ in is a good thing.” Flood in? What is meant by that? Has Biden (or any other candidate ) vowed that? I think there ought to be sensible limits on immigration and I have remarked in a recent thread here in JW that I support the restrictions on immigration from the 7 Muslim majority nations. I abhor the Muslim ideology.
Nevertheless, I do not believe that the parameters of immigration of Muslims is one of the key issues confronting our country today. I think it is perverse to analyze all political and socioeconomic issues through the prism of anti-Muslim ideology. Trump is a malignant narcissist lacking the character to be a good leader. Though his views on the inability of Muslim immigrants to become good US citizens/residents may be closer to mine, that alone does not define his fitness to be a good president.
gravenimage says
Joe Biden has indeed vowed to overturn Trump’s “Muslim Ban”–he also says that banning Muslims from pouring into the US will just alienate 1.5 billion Muslims–and will cause more terrorism. In other words, he *knows* many Muslims are violent, yet still wants them here.
And I think the reasonable number of Jihadist immigrants should be exactly zero. Many nations in Europe have been close to ruined by allowing Muslims to flood in–something that David Darman here sneers at.
I certainly don’t agree with Trump on all points, but that does not mean that he is wrong about the inadvisability of allowing untrammeled immigration from Jihad terror states. I would only allow exceptions for those victims seeking asylum from persecution there.
Gloating over the idea of Muslims being allowed to flow into the United States again–Muslim immigration into the US was down 90% before the Coronavirus lockdown–seems *very strange* for someone who is supposed to be an Anti-Jihadist.
David Darman says
Has Biden ever stated there should be NO control over immigration from any country, Muslim majority or otherwise? If so, can you provide a source/link? Changing Trump’s zero entry policy is hardly equivalent to flooding our country with Muslims (or being allowed to “flow in”).
As previously noted here, I agree on severe restriction of immigrants from any Muslim majority country, let alone having written anything about the subject that could be described as a “sneer” at the plight of other countries that have opened their borders. What is “very strange” is making false claims and unjustified assertions.
Nevertheless, the issue of Muslim or other immigration will not be a major issue in the 2020 race. No one wants to flood the country with theocrats of any stripe. Other issues take greater precedence than immigration, in particular the fitness of the malevolent narcissist now in office to lead our country. All hail the pussy-grabber-in-chief. What a demagogue!
gravenimage says
Biden said this:
“As president, I will stand up for Muslim communities across the country, immediately repeal Donald Trump’s Muslim ban and embrace diversity as a core strength of our nation, not demonise it”
Of course, this has not been enough for Al Jazeera:
https://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/joe-biden-muslim-state-exception-200529083141328.html
Or for yourself, it seems.
You have not said why it is so important to you that Muslims be allowed to enter the US in large numbers (if you find the words “flooding” so offensive–surely you don not appear to find the concept troubling, despite Jihad terror here and in the rest of the West, Europe especially).
You seem incensed that anyone dare bring this up.
As for the idea that immigration will not be an issue in the 2020 election, that seems unlikely. Trump made it a cornerstone of his campaign in 2016, and has not abandoned the idea since–including the “Muslim Ban”.
As for the idea that no one wants to flood the country with pious Muslims, that may or may not be their intent–but this is *exactly* what has happened in Britain, and France, and Germany, and the Netherlands and more places–with this sickening rise in Jihad terror attacks that goes with it.
Twenty years ago Jihad terror attacks were hardly an issue here in the US–the idea that the number of pious Muslims here makes no difference in this change is just bizarre.
As for the idea that we should ignore this, you can certainly do so if you so desire.
If you *really* consider President Trump to be a greater threat than murderous Jihad terror, that says a great deal–and nothing good.
Why are you even here? You have had one of two posts here that are actually Anti-Jihad–but the rest are anything but.
David Darman says
lol – that all your comment deserves.

Is David Darman replying to anyone specific here–or just to Jihad Watch in general?
