See No Islam, Hear No Islam
City Journal ^ | January 12, 2015 | By Benjamin Weingarten

Posted on 01/13/2016 10:46:05 AM PST by Brad from Tennessee

As part of a recently announced legal settlement with representatives of the Muslim community, the NYPD has agreed to purge materials critical to understanding the threat to New York City from domestic Islamic terrorism. The plaintiffs in Raza v. City of New York and Handschu v. Special Services Division charged that the NYPD had targeted Muslims for surveillance solely because of their religious affiliation. Among other things the settlement stipulates that the NYPD must remove from its website a comprehensive 2007 report authored by senior analysts Mitchell D. Silber and Arvin Bhatt.

Radicalization in the West identified homegrown Islamic terrorism as the primary extremist threat to New York City. As then-police commissioner Ray Kelly noted in a preface, the report's aim was to assist policymakers and law enforcement officials around the country by providing a thorough understanding of the danger posed by domestic terrorists. It also sought to help intelligence and law enforcement agencies better understand the radicalization process. Based on a rigorous analysis of almost a dozen jihadist plots across the U.S. and Europe, the report identified the enemy's ideology on its own terms. The report didn't say that jihadism had nothing to do with Islam; nor did it suggest that Islam was a "religion of peace." Its sole concern was assessing the jihadist threat, not undertaking an Islamic exegesis. . .

The future must not belong to those who deny the true nature of Islam

John Quincy Adams on Islam

In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. 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 (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).

Because the corrupt administration told them to do this. The administration of diblasio, a far-left radical. It’s because the left sees muzziyes as the new voting block, and a source of huge campaign contributions.

The left would willingly see women raped on the streets, and Jews decapitated in broad daylight than annoy their new constituency.

murkel proved that she doesn’t care if German women are raped, as long as she gets the muzzys to like her.

It should have said, "....because of their CRIMINAL affiliation."

[ It's because the left sees muzziyes as the new voting block, and a source of huge campaign contributions.]

In Europe Islamists have stated they will take over via the ballot rather than the bullet. The birthrate in Muslim communities exceeds that of other Europeans.

I don’t know if you recall it, but the very next day they asked students at some colleges about 9/11 and some nitwits couldn’t even manage to say what had been done was evil.
