Attorney General Eric Holder Panders To Muslim Groups
Hat tip to Michelle for staying on this story. Attorney General Eric Holder flew to Detroit last night to pander to Muslim groups and assure them that the DOJ is committed to upholding their rights. He promised their would be no “profiling” of Arab Americans in light of the Fort Hood shooting, etc.
Reaching out to Arab Americans and Muslims, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said in a Detroit speech Thursday night that their full rights must be protected as the country battles security threats.
“This is not blind adherence to political correctness,” Holder told hundreds at the Detroit Marriott in the Renaissance Center. “It is devotion to our founding documents.”
He said that it’s vital that all ethnic and religious groups in America be treated equally. He also said racial profiling was bad policy that breeds mistrust and division.
“For the last nine months, I’ve heard from Muslim and Arab Americans who feel uneasy about their relationship with their government, who feel isolated and discriminated against by law enforcement,” Holder said. “It is inconsistent with what America is all about.”
…Holder spoke at the banquet of Advocates and Leaders for Police and Community Trust, which consists of about 100 minority groups and law enforcement officials in metro Detroit.
I’ll tell you what “breeds mistrust and division”, it’s having to worry if the Muslim soldier next you secretly wants to kill you.
Moreover, I don’t really give a damn if Muslims feel “uneasy” about their relationship with their government. I feel “uneasy” about them.
Muslim “Americans” have given us no reason to trust them. Their condemnation of Islamic terror has been consistently tepid ever since 9/11, and has remained so even after a U.S. soldier gunned down more than 50 people in the name of their God.
The notion that we shouldn’t “profile” is absurd. If you’re an Arab and you’re in this country you should get a little extra scrutiny. If it were the Irish who were trying to kill us or the Vietnamese I would feel exactly the same way.
It gives me no pleasure to feel this way, but lives are at stake and it’s important that we stop with the BS and be honest about what is going on.
When I see Muslim Americans take to the streets and protest the atrocities committed around the world in the name of their religion, then I may feel differently.
Unfortunately, it’s unlikely anything like that will ever happen. See, I’ve actually read the Koran and believe it or not the terrorists are right about what it says. Which is why I don’t buy into the premise that Islam is a “religion of peace.”
I know I’ll get a torrent of outraged emails calling me a racist and bigot and all the rest, and that’s absolutely fine. I stand by every word.
Hate Crimes Against Muslims Continues To Decline
Jim Hoft over at Gateway Pundit has some rather inconvenient facts for the mainstream media. “Hate crimes” against Muslims have been declining steadily since 9/11.

The radical Muslim organization CAIR attempted to plant Muslim interns in key offices on Capital Hill — offices that affect national security.
White House Throwing Party For Muslims Tonight
I think it’s fair to call our president Sheikh Barack Hussein Obama at this point. No president in the history of our country has so grossly pandered to Muslims than Barack Obama.
As I pointed out a couple of weeks ago, President Obama went out of his way to ignore our National Day of Prayer which most previous presidents acknowledged and often celebrated.
Instead, Obama made a disgusting YouTube video honoring the start of the Islamic Holy Month of Ramadan.
Sadly, a YouTube video just wasn’t quite enough. Tonight, the president is holding a party at the White House to celebrate Ramadan.
Here’s the guest list:
Cabinet: Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates, Atty. Gen. Eric H. Holder Jr., and Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius.

It is absolutely horrifying the way Obama panders and grovels to the Muslim world. We have nothing to apologize for. We’re not the crazy assholes, they are.
The president actually believes that if he panders enough, telling the Muslim world how much we care about them and their religion (which we don’t) they won’t hate us anymore. In reality, nothing could be further from the truth.
The only thing Obama does with his pathetic apologies is make this nation look weak. He feeds the phony narrative that America is the bad guy in the world.
We continue to fight and die for a primitive backward people who live on the most barren, worthless real estate on the planet in Afghanistan. We train their military, we build their schools, hospitals, roads, bridges, and power stations. We treat the sick and wounded, bring clothes and toys to the children.
In return, our soldiers and blown up by mines and IED’s. Pressure plate mines are set along roadsides that blow our limbs off as we attempt to protect the population. Snipers shoot people in the head as they walk down the street. More than 4,000 of our men and women died in Iraq bringing freedom to Muslims who suffered for more than 20 years under a brutal tyrant.
But none of that matters. We suck. We’re the evil imperialists who must apologize and beg for forgiveness. We must make sure the Muslim world knows how much we love them. The trillions of dollars we spend on them and the thousands of soldiers who die for them just isn’t enough.
Please forgive us.

Video: Obama Shamefully Panders To Muslims For Ramadan
After refusing to make much of our National Day of Prayer as most president’s have done, Obama instead chose to make a special video recognizing the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. In addition, Obama sought to assure the Muslim world that we are still committed to forging a new relationship after that mean old Bushie.
President Obama also promised that America wants to build a more peaceful world. Don’t tell the president, but I’m pretty sure we’ve always tried to do that. It’s not America that’s causing problems in the world it’s the crazy Muslims. They’re the ones committing mass murder all over the world in the name of their religion.
Why don’t we ever get YouTube clips from Saudi Imams telling us the Muslim world is committed to peace? How about the King of Saudi Arabia sending us a message recognizing the importance of Christianity and Jesus Christ. How about that for a change?
Obama’s constant pandering to Muslims is pathetic and embarrassing. I don’t give a damn about Ramadan or Islam. I’m tired of hearing about how much we allegedly have in common with the Muslim world — it’s total nonsense.
We don’t have anything even remotely in common with the Muslim world. We don’t kill people we disagree with, we don’t treat our women like property, we don’t blow ourselves up to get to “paradise,” and we don’t give money to charities that fund suicide bombings in Israel.
The Muslim world should be sending America YouTube clips on a weekly basis apologizing for exporting mass murder and misery around the world. They should apologize for treating a mass murdering terrorist like a rock star when he returned home to Libya after his disgraceful release by Scotland.
Unlike the president, I don’t send my best wishes to the Muslim world for Ramadan. Instead, I send my best wishes to our brave military that’s fighting to bring freedom to a bunch of ungrateful Muslims.
Sarkozy Says Burqas ‘Not Welcome’ In France
French president Nicolas Sarkozy spoke out today against women wearing the Muslim burqa on the streets of France.
Sarkozy said he finds the small but growing trend of women wearing the full-body garment in France troubling and supports a ban on the practice.
"In our country, we cannot accept that women be prisoners behind a screen, cut off from all social life, deprived of all identity," Sarkozy said to extended applause in a speech at the Chateau of Versailles southwest of Paris.
"The burqa is not a religious sign, it’s a sign of subservience, a sign of debasement—I want to say it solemnly," he said. "It will not be welcome on the territory of the French Republic."
Kudos to Sarkozy for having the guts to stand up on this issue. Like Britain, France is being taken over by Islam.
Europeans are usually either too politically correct or too scared of the Muslim backlash to say so.
There is nothing wrong with immigration per say, but when millions of people pour into a country and refuse to assimilate it’s a problem.
Especially, when many of those people hold radical beliefs that include murdering people with whom they disagree.
Rather than adopt the culture and practices of their new home country, many Muslim immigrants in Europe expect the country to change for them.
I realize the idea of banning burqas is contrary to the idea of religious freedom, but I think Europe is a special case.
Radical Islam is threatening to swallow up western culture and traditions. Burqas are the coverings the Taliban makes women wear.
French Immigration Minister Eric Besson is against banning the burqa for fear of creating “tensions.”
Fear of creating “tensions” (meaning violence and intimidation from Muslims) is what usually stifles criticism of Islam in Europe.
In 2004, France banned women from wearing the Islamic headscarf and other conspicuous religious symbols from public schools.
I think banning the headscarf goes too far. The headscarf is warn by peaceful Muslims and is not associated with extremism like the burqa.
While banning the burqa is a good start, Islamic clothing is not the problem in France. Unchecked Muslim immigration is the problem in France.
France has a Muslim population of more than 5 million — the largest in Western Europe.
Dutch MP Geert Wilders has the right idea for The Netherlands. He’s calling for a freeze on all immigration from Muslim countries and deportation for Muslim immigrants who commit crimes or who refuse to assimilate.
The Media Whitewashing Of Islam
Bruce Bawer over at PJM has a good piece today about the liberal media’s whitewashing of Islam. Anyone who reads this blog knows that is an issue near and dear to my heart.
Bawer has written a new book called Surrender: Appeasing Islam, Sacrificing Freedom which I’m looking forward to reading.

Surrender: Appeasing Islam, Sacrificing Freedom |
The idea constantly pushed by the liberal media and most recently the Obama administration is that Islam is simply misunderstood by Americans.
We have an irrational and foolish fear over a religion we just don’t understand.
Sorry liberals, but nothing could be further from the truth. Islam is a dangerous religion and as a Judeo-Christian nation we should prevent Islam from taking over our culture the way it has in Europe and The Netherlands.
Islam is really not a religion, but more like a totalitarian ideology similar to fascism or Nazism.
One of the few politicians who’s not cowed by political correctness and has it right is Dutch MP Geert Wilders.
After making a short film critical of Islam, Wilders and his family must live under armed guard because of constant threats on his life by Muslims.
He was also banned from entering Britain after a Muslim member of parliament threatened to have the Muslim population riot and overrun the British Parliament if Wilders were allowed to enter the country.
Incidentally, Wilders and his Freedom Party won big in the European parliament elections a couple of days ago — so there may be hope yet for Europe.
Islam and freedom mix together like oil and water. Americans need to wake-up and realize the media is lying to them.
Video: Geert Wilders Tells The Truth About Islam At The David Horowitz Freedom Center
I’ve written quite a bit about Geert Wilders over the last couple of years. He’s one of the only people in Europe willing to speak out against the spread of Islam and the Islamization of Europe. Wilders is being prosecuted in multiple countries under absurd “hate speech” laws for speaking out against Islam. As a Dutch member of parliament he lives under constant death threats from Muslims in the Netherlands.
He was invited to speak in Britain recently and was turned away at the airport after radical Muslims threatened to overrun the British parliament if he were allowed to speak — thus proving Wilder’s point that Islam is a totalitarian ideology.
Take a listen to this magnificent speech from Geert Wilders in Los Angeles at the David Horowitz Freedom Center:
Here’s the Q & A after the speech:

Obama Panders To Muslims In Speech To Turkish Parliament
That kind of soundbite makes liberals feels all warm and fuzzy inside, but unfortunately it doesn’t look at reality. While it may be true that America is not at war with Islam, Islam is undoubtedly at war with America. I just hope that behind all the pandering rhetoric to Europe that Obama realizes that.
Islam is not a religion of peace. I encourage those who believe that to pick up a Koran and read it. Islam is an intolerant and totalitariain ideology that treats women, minorities, and non-believers like shit.
UN “Human Rights” Commission Passes Resolution Shielding Islam From Criticism
The UN “Human Rights” Commission passed a resolution today put forth by Muslim nations intended to shield religion from criticism. Predictably, by “religion” they of course mean Islam.
The so-called UN “human rights” commission is a joke just like the UN itself. Also, for the record Islam is not a religion of peace. All Muslims are not terrorists, but all terrorists are usually Muslim.
Muslim TV Station Owner Beheads Wife, Media Silent As Usual
Anytime a story shows Islam to be anything but a misunderstood “religion of peace” the media ignores it. Daughters are brutally murdered and wives are beheaded (because Allah willed it) and the media is nowhere to be seen. Such is the case with 44-year old Mo Hassan who founded Bridges TV, a television station dedicated to ending American misconceptions about Islam and showing it in a more favorable light.
Unfortunately, Mo’s mission became complicated when his wife Aasiya Zubair filed for divorce. She recently served him with the papers and suffice to say he was none too pleased. Police responded to the couple’s home just days before her murder and Aasiya said she felt in danger and filed an order of protection.
Thursday evening however, Mo Hassan walked into an Orchard Park, NY police station and said his wife was at their TV station — dead.
When Police arrived at the station they found a horrifying scene. Mo’s wife was not only dead — she was decapitated.
Police are not speculating at this point what the motive might have been for Mo to butcher his wife, but I think we’ll soon discover that the old lady was getting a wee bit too independent for his taste. Serving Mo with divorce papers and filing protection orders is no way for a good Muslim woman to behave!! Off with her head.
Allahu Akbar! (God is great)
…and another honor killing goes unnoticed.
