You're about to hear some ugly & vicious Islamophobia & anti-Muslim bigotry this weekend from elected officials, commentators and even mainstream media. Hope I'm wrong. People will use it to divide Jewish and Muslim communities for their political agenda. Don't fall for it.

As we have seen many, many times, in every jihad attack, Muslims are always the true victims, no matter what the circumstances. Wajahat Ali is a solid company man, always ready with the company line.

If there is anything that needs to be divided it’s Jewish and Muslim “communities”. If only this could serve — with no loss of life — as a wake-up call to the former.
mortimer says
How many ‘wake-up calls’ do Western people need? Islam is NOT ‘benign’. Islam commands Muslims to hate KAFIRS ‘for the sake of Allah’, but Mohammed taught Muslims to hate Jews above all the other KUFAAR.
Jew hatred is NORMATIVE Islam, rather than an aberration.
Kasim Hafeez explains why Muslims are ‘born to hate Jews’ in this video:

Agreed, revereridesagain and Mortimer.

I am watching the Fox News report and interviews with police experts and a former FBI man. Not surprisingly, nothing is being mentioned about Islam. They are treating it as though he is a lone wolf. I would guess that if there were a hostage situation involving a non-colored person, they might give his race and other connections. I suppose the man may be an atheist or Christian. Perhaps they do not know. But somehow I think they bend over backwards to give Muslims the benefit of the doubt, even if they find out Islam was a factor.
CogitoErgoSum says
Well, one thing is certain; it will be determined that he is mentally ill.
CogitoErgoSum says
Oh, and one other thing we can expect to be told over and over. Even if the perpetrator of this crime has a big zebibah on his forehead, he most definitely is not a “true” Muslim but rather someone who has radicalized himself over the internet and as a result now severely “misunderstands” his religion.
gregbeetham says
Yes, I think it is high time one or two of the Islamic experts in Congress attended misunderstandings like this and explained to the Muslim victim how he has misunderstood his religion of peace and tolerance.
CogitoErgoSum says
I’d love to see Joe Biden do it in real time over live t.v. Maybe he could get the guy to read from the Book of Palms with him.
gravenimage says
The terrorist has said that he is Muslim.
somehistory says
The hostages are finding out….up close and personal…just what is in the hearts of these *devout* moslums and their evil intent.
If there is a successful resolution, they can spread the word about what we should expect from those who choose to serve satan as his children. Hopefully, they will get to share this info and spread the knowledge and truth that mozlums call a “phobia.”
eduardo odraude says
A lot of Jewish people don’t realize that in voting for Biden (many did), they were voting for ever more of these kinds of events, because of the Dems’ recklessness on immigration and the Dems’ ignorance or misinformation about islam. To criticize Islam’s main source texts as fundamentally totalitarian and violently expansionist is not to tar all Muslims, since Western Muslims and many others often know little about their own source texts, other than the whitewashed stuff told them by Western imams who have to keep the real character of Islam hush hush because Muslims in the West are still a minority. Muslims pray the Qur;anic Arabic, yet four-fifths of Muslims globally do not speak Arabic, and have little understanding of the Arabic words they are praying. But the imams in the West know Islam is a totalitarian expansionist system utilizing deception and jihad terror for its spread.
In a canonical hadith, Muhammad said, “If someone changes his Islamic religion, then kill him.”
Doomer says
Wajahat Ali works for the NY Times,the Leftist rag. Typical message from a member of the Muslim-Leftist alliance.
One day, when the West’s Economy has Collapsed (objective of the MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD),
the journalists of the NY Times will be forced to submit to the Muslims, no longer be equal members in an alliance.
Doomer says
The Leftists spell on the zoomer generation (teens to age 24 ) of the West is based on how Leftists convince zoomers by making capitalism=savage capitalism.
a) For the first 150 YEARS: the Industrial Revolution began in the UK around 1760, and spread to other countries. For the first 150 years capitalism= savage capitalism.
b) Truth is, Savage Capitalism gave BIRTH,is the cause of, the appearance of the ideology of Socialism/Communism.
A capitalism that was Anti-Human Rights.
Without decade after decade after decade after decade of anti-human rights exploitation by savage capitalism literally Millions and Millions of the poor would Never have been Completely Convinced by the ideas
of Socialism.
c) During that time even Child Labor ( working 12 hrs/day and typically 6 DAYS a week) was allowed,
e) And it was Only at the Beginning of the 20th century that capitalism = improvement in the Quality of Life for the Population.
That was due to passing laws establishing a maximum of 8 hrs work/ day.
That is the meaning the MAY FIRST marches, commemoration of having an 8 hr / day shift.
f) But why a12 h/ day work shift? It was due to Adam Smith’s LAISSEZ-FAIRE theory ( let it be done) in Economics.
NO! the government must Not Interfere in the Economy. If industrialists want to force children of 10 (most children began working at that age )
to toil 12 hrs/day and 6 days a week
in the Coal Mines and Factories, then yes, laissez-faire,
the INVISIBLE HAND concept of Adam Smith,which is based on Laissez-faire Theory,
( the Sum of the Selfish Actions of Individuals concerning their Economic Decisions, results in Prosperity for the Country IF, really,IF, the GOVERNMENT has No or Little Interference in the Economy)
will result in eventual Prosperity for All in Society.
No to Government Interference, and yes to allowing ( laissez-faire) capitalists force children and women and men to work
12 h/day, 6 days a week, for the Equivalent of a WELFARE monthly check,
will result in prosperity for All in the Country.
g) The Invisible Hand theory is the economic version of LEIBNIZ’ “Best of All Possible Worlds” theory (1710 ) ( to Explain Evil in the World).
1) If God is omnibenevolent, omnipotent and omniscient, how do we account for the suffering and injustice that exists in the world?
2) Though we can’t see it, the evil,even great evil done, in the end, results in the best possible world under the circumstances. Any variation would result in
GREATER evil.
h) Another of Adam Smith’s ideas is the FREE MARKET, also called FREE TRADE. Smith is the creator of modern capitalism,in his “The Wealth of Nations” (1776).
Free trade means having No Tariffs on a country’s exports and imports.
To do so would be Government Interference of the Economy, laissez-faire.
CogitoErgoSum says
I’m pretty sure the Bible provides an explanation as to why suffering and injustice exist in the world. It’s in there somewhere.
Doomer says
It would be the Adam and Eve story, though it could just be a metaphor.
a) Truth is, the redpill says:
“Man is Evil by Nature”. ( why? It is as it is ( another redpill maxim) )
The idea of a “Noble Savage” ( essentially Man is Good by Nature ) is trash, but it is one held by Leftists, thus their emphasis of the NEW MAN.
b) In Confucianism, MENCIUS, the greatest Confucian after the founder, said “Man is GOOD by Nature”,
but later XUNZI ( 300-230 BC) , brilliant Confucian, far wiser said:
” The nature of man is evil;
his goodness is only acquired training.” (It is as it is )
One good example is the Racial Hierarchy regarding the Love Market ( whites at top ),
a) Due to the Golden Ratio (law of proportions)
b) And Genetic Fear of the Dark, in Our Subconsicous ( dark means evil,bad, because it means Death at Night ,being killed by animals at night). It is as it is.
95% of our decisions are decided by forces in our subconsious.
Here is a video that stars Incel TV (atheist,Pakistani descent) about the Racial Hierarchy:
“Blackpill 101 E14 – Hispanic men’s SMV & JBW in Latin America”
https://youtu.be/OFFhQsATUeo
CogitoErgoSum says
I have concluded that the nature of man is neither good nor evil but that we are all born into the world in a state of ignorance and subject to the influence of things both good and evil. At birth we have no knowledge of what is what is good and what is evil, what is truth and what is a lie. It is the “assignment” of each individual to find the truth and to live a life according to what is true and what is good. For some it takes years and for others it may take only a few moments. There are those who can point the way for us to follow but we must move our own feet to walk the path ourselves. Maybe that’s the truth and maybe that’s a lie. You decide
somehistory says
The Book of Job explains it. And, there is a Proverb that says, “Be wise my son and make my heart rejoice, that I may make a reply to him that is taunting me.”
Jesus said that the devil is the one “having the means to cause death.”
so, yes, “it’s in there.”
gregbeetham says
The early exploitation at the dawn of the industrial age was made possible by a huge surplus of labour many of whom starved to death after the agricultural revolution which preceded the industrial revolution. The landowners and gentry decided to convert most of their holdings into grazing so they evicted the crofters forcibly who traditionally had grown various grain crops by hand with a percentage going to the landowner. This resulted in hundreds of thousands collecting around the outskirts of cities and towns trying to eke out an existence, a huge number failed, some were used in the army or navy or were exported as free labour to various colonies, thus when the industrial revolution came along it had a large surplus of cheap labour at hand which led to exploitation but at least those who were employed could survive for a while if the nature of the job and the conditions didn’t kill them first.
gravenimage says
Doomer, you have implied before that capitalism started child labor, but this simply is not the case. In fact, child labor has been the norm in most pre-Islamic societies–in fac, it was only with the greater production made possible with the Industrial Revolution that people started to act to curb child labor.
Doomer says
“Islamophobia”. Here the astonishing stupidity of Conservatives and Classical Liberals,Libertarians shows itself.
a) They NEVER point out that the Left’s and Muslims’ usage of equating JUDEOPHOBIA ( fear of,bigotry towards, a group of PEOPLE, the Jews ) with Islamophobia ( but in reference to Muslims ) is 100% trash.
b) The true equivalent would be MUSLIMOPOBIA ( fear of,bigotry towards, a group of PEOPLE, the Muslims ) ,
since Islam is ONLY a set of religious ideas about life, God, prophets, and IDEAS, I repeat, ideas can be
insulted.
c ) You have the legal right to curse Mohammed, the Quran,Islam. Or argue against it intellectually. In the West BLASPHEMY is Not a Crime.
Of course Wajahat Ali knows all this, and no doubt secretly laughs at the stupidity of Conservatives,Libertarians,Classical Liberals, who NEVER challenge the VALIDITY of the use of the term “Islamophobia”.

First with victim card: ‘journalist’ Wajahat Ali warns of ‘Islamophobia’ in wake of Texas synagogue hostage crisis
Wajahat Ali
@WajahatAli
You’re about to hear some ugly & vicious Islamophobia & anti-Muslim bigotry this weekend from elected officials, commentators and even mainstream media. Hope I’m wrong. People will use it to divide Jewish and Muslim communities for their political agenda. Don’t fall for it.
……………….
Notice this thug doesn’t think that his coreligionist taking Jews hostage and threatening to murder them (and perhaps worse–we don’t know, since this Jihad crisis is not even over yet) in any way divides Jewish and Muslim communities. In fact, he doesn’t say anything critical about this savagery at all–he just castigates any journalists who might in any way imply that this is a bad thing. Just disgusting.
Wajahat Ali wrote a sneeriung book titled “Go Back to Where You Came From” where someone supposedly referred to Muslims as terrorists–yet he appears to have no problem with an *actual* Jihad terrotist like this hostage-taker targeting a Synagogue.
He also posits 9/11 not as a Jihad terror attack on Infidels, but as–somehow–an attack by the Infidels on Muslims.
Bizarrely, this apologia for savagery is described as “funny” on a review at Goodreads.
Beneath the Veil of Consciousness says
CAIR made public their taquia announcement that this hostage situation is a heinous act. So now even CAIR is Islamophobic.
Infidel says
Aside from the fact that this now dead gunman was demanding the release of a terrorist, mirroring the demands of Taliban, IS-K, the Pakistani government and CAIR itself. Also, the woman in question got divorced from her husband b’cos even he thought that she was too extreme
CogitoErgoSum says
Well, the hostage taker is dead now and this will all be quickly forgotten.

Phobia….The word is so…really tiring, this fake “phobia” they whine about
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/french-row-over-mosque-isn-t-simply-about-state-financing-it-runs-deep-into-islamophobia-and-french-secularism/ar-
“Construction of what is slated to be the largest mosque in Europe – and especially the state’s role in its financing – has sparked controversy for many reasons. French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin has condemned Strasbourg’s decision, citing the potential of “foreign meddling.” His concerns relate to the future mosque’s leadership – the French branch of the Turkish-based Milli Görüs Islamic Confederation, an Islamic political organization for the Turkish diaspora across Europe.”
abu taleb says
I read on a newspaper years ago that the muslims were poor because they were victims of what the infidels did. Allah has promised to make them rich (9:28), so it is the fault of infidels (especially the Jews) that makes them poor.
No wonder the muslims hate the non muslims. (sarc)
gregbeetham says
Yep, Muslims have never done introspection or any kind of self examination and the majority are ignorant of historical events or have read any accurate history, in any case the populations of the region had so many upheavals and conflicts where the winners usually trashed everything that belonged to the losers much of the records became fragmented and now to trace back what happened to who and when is problematic so basically all Muslims have and all they think they need is the Koran.
They believe whatever their Imams tell them about how evil the ‘colonialists’ are and how evil the Jews are (which is in their doctrine anyway) and how we stole everything from the Muslims and that’s why they are so backward by comparison to us. Thing is, if they ever did some self examination they would come to the realization ‘maybe’ that Islam equals stagnation and that’s the real reason why they are the way they are.
Manuele Lui says
I am going to be BLUNT. WAJAHAT ALI, INSTEAD OF SAYING SORRY FOR THE SHIT A “TWISTED MIND” CONVERT TO THE ISLAM CIRCUS, AS ALWAYS, YOU FIND A SHITHOLE TO DIG FROM. IT’S SOMEONE ELSE’S FAULT. THE THING THE DEFENDER OF ISLAM CIRCUS ARE FAST TO CLAIM VICTIMHOOD. NICE TRY BUT I AIN’T BUYING YOUR CRAP.
VICTOR COWEN says
Only what you deserve Mr. Ali. Deal with your own people. Nobody outside Islam cares what YOU have to say.
OLD GUY says
Funny how Ali immediately goes on the defense of Islam. Maybe he should show some outrage at his islamic religion for teaching and promoting these attacks on the Jewish and Christian populations around the world. Ali is not a journalist he is part of the islamic propaganda machine.
