My friends, it could be time for me to be saying goodbye. Leftist and Islamic groups have been trying for years to silence all criticism of jihad terror and Sharia oppression of women and others, and in the New Zealand massacre they see the best chance in a long time to move in for the kill. I (along with other foes of jihad terror) could be banned from everything and rendered a non-person, a la Alex Jones, any day now.
This is no exaggeration. Meeting in Istanbul, the International Union for Muslim Scholars (IUMS) has called on non-Muslim countries to ban Islamophobia, which means criticism of Islam, including analysis of the motivating ideology fueling jihad terror. IUMS President Ahmed al-Raisouni said Friday: IUMS calls on non-Muslim countries to ban the spread of hatred against Islam and Muslims.
Since analysis of the motivating ideology behind jihad terror is routinely smeared as hatred of Islam and Muslims, this will likely outlaw all such analysis and make opposition to jihad terror effectively impossible.
And these bans are very likely coming. In America, they wont take the form of actual laws forbidding criticism of Islam (although remember that Tom Perez, the current head of the Democratic National Committee, refused to rule out the implementation of such laws a few years ago, when he was Assistant Attorney General in the Obama administration). Theyre more likely to take the form of a complete deplatforming. We will be able to speak, but no one will be able to hear us, as we wont be allowed on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and the rest.
IUMS was not alone. Saudi King Salman tweeted: The heinous massacre that targeted worshippers in the mosque in New Zealand is a terrorist act, and it reaffirms the responsibility of the international community in combating hate speech and terrorism that is not condoned by religions or the values of tolerance. Apparently terrorism that is condoned by religions is fine with him, as in strike terror in the enemies of Allah (Quran 8:60). But by hate speech he almost certainly means honest discussion of how Islamic jihadis use the texts and teachings of Islam to justify violence.
Domestically, the call for censorship came from the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which has for years been trying to shut down all opposition to jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women, gays, and others. They have succeeded in fooling many people into thinking that it is bigotry and racism to oppose jihad terror, and have made those who discuss the motivating ideology behind jihad terror toxic in the public square. Now Hamas-linked CAIR is attempting to use the New Zealand massacre to achieve total victory: the complete closure of all media platforms to foes of jihad terror and Sharia oppression.
In its press conference on the New Zealand mosque shootings, CAIR top dog Nihad Awad (pictured above) named Donald Trump as responsible for the massacre, despite the fact that in the murderers insane manifesto, he asks himself: Were/are you a supporter of Donald Trump?, and answers: As a symbol of renewed white identity and common purpose? Sure. As a policy maker and leader? Dear god no. The symbol of renewed white identity part is all that the media is quoting. He never says he was incited to violence by Trump, or says anything about Trump and Muslims at all.
Awad also named Pamela Geller and me: Years ago when another terrorist attacked in Norway he quoted islamophobes like Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller. Yes, he also quoted Barack Obama and John F. Kennedy and Charles Darwin and a host of others. He said he was inspired to violent actions by al-Qaeda. Awad does not, of course, say anything about that.
Anyway, CAIRs press conference was a full-court press for censorship, and it painted, yet again, a large target on our backs for increasingly unhinged and violent Leftists, as well as jihadis. CAIR calls for a total silencing on all platforms of so-called hate groups, i.e., those who dare to note that jihad terrorists are inspired by Islamic texts and teachings. It is likely that the social media giants will comply; it will not be at all surprising if they succeed in getting us completely silenced.
Not surprisingly, it was in Britain that police moved most swiftly on this. The BBC reported Saturday that a 24-year old from Oldham was arrested for a social media post making reference and support for the terrible events in New Zealand. Approving of a massacre is disgusting, and if he was calling for or approving of violence then there is no justification for that. At the same time, the BBC report says: Social media firms and some news outlets have been criticised for sharing livestream footage of the attack and failing to address far-right extremism on their platforms.
Calling for or justifying a massacre of innocent people is one thing. But that "failing to address far-right extremism on their platforms" is quite another. For years now, Leftists and Islamic supremacists have insisted that opposing jihad mass murder and Sharia oppression of women and others constitutes "far-right extremism." So it is likely that those who will be shut down will not be limited solely to people such as this 24-year-old from Oldham who was making reference and support for the terrible events. It will include foes of jihad terror.
If and when we are all silenced, however, the jihad will not stop. The multicultural paradise will not dawn on the planet; in fact, there will be more jihad violence and strife than ever. There just wont be anyone around who dares to oppose it.

yes, America is an immigrant nation.
Nearly 100% came from Christian based nations that acknowledged the Magna Carta; its roots, its purpose, history heritage culture and what was fought for.
Now America is under attack by equating immigrants.
That a muslim immigrant is equal to the others.
Not True.
Our common thread, the developed “west” was the Magna Carta, document created out of a war with Islam. That root document is what elevated the “children of Britain.
“Land of the free? /spit”
Not anymore.....the muslims rule America and it will only get worse since everyone is scared to death of even saying the truth about islam and the muslims.
Gab and Dissenter look promising.
Fear not Robert !
youre safe here on free republic
Thank you Jim !
Second it!
From the article: IUMS President Ahmed al-Raisouni said Friday: IUMS calls on non-Muslim countries to ban the spread of hatred against Islam and Muslims.
Dude! You could make this happen without appealing to national legislatures across the world.
All you have to do is bring your cult into the 21st Century, stop marrying your damn sisters, stop shooting and blowing up innocent people, and stop cutting off heads when people disagree with your pedophile prophet’s lunatic rantings as recorded in your handbook.
And when they started with Alex Jones you all laughed.
Are you still laughing?
Tucker Carlson, Jeanine Pirro, .... Exactly WHEN will you start to care? After it’s too late?
“... Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak for me.”
And just how do you eat an elephant? One piece at a time.
I second that.
I prefer the work of his brother, Hagar the Horrible.
Islamophobia?
Yeah, I’m Islamophobic.
They cut peoples heads off, rape little boys and girls (wait... they rape ANYTHING that moves), drown people in cages, set people in cages on fire, honor killings of family members, the complete degradation of women, their dream of total world domination (Caliphate).
All of this because of a belief in a totally made up god by a madman prophet.
Scared? (phobia) an extreme OR irrational fear of or aversion to something.
NOT necessarily “irrational”.
fear, dread, horror, terror, dislike, hatred, loathing, detestation, distaste, aversion, antipathy, revulsion, repulsion; specter, bugbear, bogey, nightmare, bête noire;
Should we be “scared” of Muslims? You BETCHA!
Muslims are like Nazis, there are no “good” Nazis.
“Good” Muslims are either lying (Taquia)
[ “Whoever at any time or place fears their [infidels’] evil, may protect himself through outward show.”
As proof of this, he quotes Muhammad’s companions. Abu Darda said: “Let us smile to the face of some people while our hearts curse them.” Al-Hassan said: “Doing taqiyya is acceptable till the day of judgment [in perpetuity].”]
OR they have no clue about their own religion, which is no excuse.
” yes, America is an immigrant nation. “

While sympathetic, that statement is simply not factually true.
Since the time of the founding of the United States most Americans were natural born citizens.
The leftist mantra that “we are all immigrants” was Never true. They will point and say that “we are all descendants of immigrants, which is the same thing”.
It is not the same thing, implying as it does that all immigrants have the same claim on the founding and success of this country as native born Americans (including first generation) although many do.
It is important because this fallacy is shared by almost everyone with the intended result of most people believing that ANY immigrant’s contribution/opinion is equal to those of the population they recently arrived in.
Someone who swam across the border last night is not an ‘immigrant’, much less an American. (He or she is an ILLEGAL alien.)
What I find outrageous/humorous when dealing with the "hate America" crowd, is when they bring up how "Americans are descendants of invaders that slaughtered the Indian tribes and replaced them & their cultures."
Then those same geniuses, use that to defend the opening of our borders to the world.
I pull my "race card" on them with; "ok, so my people weren't completely wiped out by foreign invaders, so you want to try again?"
This American doesn't want his Country to be turned into a turd-world s**thole, like Mexico and its cousins south.
That’s Benjamin Medea back behind and on the right ...

The US of A is already well on its way to this end.
Just a week or so ago ALL the RATs and a wholebunchalotta ass-wipe Republicans passed an ammendment to do just that!
http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2019/roll108.xml
Check out all those supposedly “good” and “patriotic” politicians that proudly wear the “R” brand that kiss the ass of islam because they are too cowardly to face a media that will call them names!
What a bunch of quislings!
“It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus
God allows what He could prevent! Mysterious, indeed. But the tough truth.
Disagreeing with you on a forum is “shouting you down”?
Funny how many headlines have seen about the 200 massacred in Nigeria? We will talk about New Zealand for weeks to come.
