My latest in PJ Media:
The story couldn’t have been more heartwarming. Matiullah Matie, an Afghan refugee who is a husband and father of eight children, cried out “Salaam! Welcome! Welcome! Welcome!” as he greeted a family of Hmong refugees. Matie had previously been resettled in Wausau, Wis., and had come to make the new arrivals feel at home. He also took the opportunity to talk at length to the media about his experience as a refugee, and became the exclusive focus of a WSAW report a week later. On Wednesday, however, the mediagenic Matie’s star turn came to a sudden and sickening halt: he was arrested for sexual assault.
Wausau residents did everything they could to make the Matie family feel welcome. WSAW noted that “people have been coming to their home constantly to help them with their immediate needs and to get them connected with community resources.” The Maties reciprocated the kindness: “Each encounter greeted with Afghan hospitality, either some milk tea, food, or both.” Matiullah Matie explained, “A person to coming here should eat and drink something with us.” Marvelous!
The Matie family, said WSAW, once lived in the Afghan city of Lashkar Gah, which Afghans refer to as “Little America.” Matie “worked alongside numerous U.S. agencies in Afghanistan including the Marines, Army, USAID, and Spirit of America,” and “also spoke publicly against the Taliban,” which “put a target on his back.” He recounted a horrific Taliban attack that took place one night when he was not home, and which he was sure was retaliation for his work with the Americans. “They killed my older brother, older daughter. They shoot my home by RPGs and heavy weapons. So they thought, Matiullah Matie is here.”
Now Matie is grateful to be here. “This is the new culture, new life, but I’m feeling that I just moved from small America to the large America.” Of his new neighbors in Wausau, he said, “I like these people. It is very nice and beautiful city. I cannot imagine the night when I arrived first to the Wausau and the mayor, Ms. Katie, and all of the church … ladies and gentlemen came for my welcoming. I told to my wife that I’m feeling like this was me and yours wedding night. So, I was very pleased at that.”
Matie did, however, speak of the “challenge” for his family “to start the new life in the new culture, learning. First problem that they’re having right now is English,” he said. “I’m sure when they learn English and they knew about the law of the Wausau and the people of America, they will not get bored and they will not be regret for their coming here.” He revealed an ambition: “So, now I’m feeling good. I’m thinking that I’m in Afghanistan; my tribe is coming. Yes, now this is my tribe, I should be their tribe leader here too!”
There is more. Read the rest here.

Wisconsin: Mediagenic Afghan Arrested for Sexual Assault, Mayor Says ‘This Doesn’t Define All Afghan Refugees’
……………….
He was so “happy” to be here that he engaged in sexual assault…
And while this may not define *all* Afghan refugees, it certainly defines many of them. Raping women, girls, and young boys–and even men when intended to humiliate–is rife among this population.
abu taleb says
Yeah, right. This doesn’t define all Afghan refugees. But comparing other non muslim group of people, it certainly gives much higher rate of criminal behaviour. So, unless you want to have hugh crime in your area, you should take the non muslim people to your area. There are a lot of people who need help and deserved for help.
PRCS says
It defines what Islam teaches.
Infidel says
It easily defines most, which is a good enough reason why none of them should have been allowed into this country in the first place

Biden probably believes that flying a Muslim migrant over the ocean removes the Muslim mindset and all traces of Islam, and cures a Jihadist from following the Quran and Hadiths regarding infidels.
mortimer says
Reports say that many Afghans are leaving Islam after reaching the US. I cannot verify, but mullahs are panicking.
Check Burry says
Youve heard the saying, you can take the man/woman out of the country, but you cant take the afghanmind out of the man/woman.
Something like that, but far mor dangerous than the USA europe uk has seen, so far.

Have you already received the free crackpipes that the Biden administration is contemplating?
gravenimage says
Mortimer, can you cite any of these reports?
somehistory says
They may not “all ” engage in rape, but they ***are *****all**** taught that it is acceptable and even demanded that they show uncovered females just what to expect from devout mozlums.
If a large group of males are taught from their childhood that they should be on the lookout for females that are not completely covered in order to rape them to teach them to be covered, then at least some of those males are going to be rapists.
All mozlums are taught that uncovered females are fair game for rape. all are taught that little girls, from babyhood onward, are fair game for rape ….they may call it *marriage*…but it is not marriage, it is assault, it is rape, it is an evil crime.
mozlums are not to be trusted to refrain from raping. They feel that it is their “right.”
Michael Copeland says
“Any woman without a headscarf is asking to be raped.”

mortimer says
Afghans self-identify in opinion surveys as among the most fanatical and strict Muslims. How can that be a benefit to the US.
Americans are unaware that Sharia law doesn’t punish a Muslims who rapes a non-Muslim.
OLD GUY says
The Mayor is right this does not define all Afghan refugees some are worse.
Check Burry says
The mayors aint to impressive either.
Brenrod says
This mayor and Biden should first be thinking about American citizens and the danger to them. Biden and the mayor have no thought for Americans who voted them in.
