CAIR's Nihad Awad complains that Muslims aren't playing the victimhood game well enough

"It’s all about the numbers in the victimhood bullying game," says Christine at the Vigilant Freedom blog (thanks to all who sent this in). In "Audio from CAIR’s Meeting on 6 Imams at ADAMS Center," she presents a transcript of CAIR's cofounder and executive director Nihad Awad exhorting Muslims to play the victimhood game more effectively:

There were 196 cases reported by the Justice Department for Muslims in civil rights cases. There were over 1008 cases reported by the Jewish faith. We need to do a much better job not only in recognizing our civil rights but also in reporting it to the government. Which is very critical and very important.

And that is why, I think, this kind of program is important to the purpose of being able to inform the government official places …[garbled].

We will talk about the case, about the case of the imams, about the implications, about where the case is now…we’ll talk about the 6 imams case…Muslims who fly within the states, and also the lawsuit that we helped file, and the reaction, both in public, in the media and in Congress. What it means to civil rights and what it means to Muslims. This is very important. You will know that history is being made.

…It is very important for Muslims to understand the law, and it’s also very important for Muslims to exercise their legal rights in the country. And it’s also important that if these rights are violated, that Muslims recognize that these rights are violated. Many Muslims,they are discriminated against or mistreated, they overlook or ignore or they are afraid to say or challenge or report these mistreatments. Which means, more of the same will take place against the same person or persons or against Muslims. And when people stand up and say something and challenge them, then there will be change.

And of course, when they don't have the hate crimes they can use to portray Muslims as victims of "Islamophobia" in the U.S., CAIR is not above making them up.

Yessss.

What's important is to be able to commit group felonies by staging dry runs of Jihad air terror, not facing federal prosecution given our cowardly Prez, with even less of a chance of prosecution given that our next Prez will be even more cowardly, and then filing frivolous lawsuits against innocent parties so as to implement the 6th Pillar of Islam so as to silence what tiny bit of actual criticism of Islam actually even exists.

That's what is important to Islam. It's part of their world takeover cause, and what better way to advance the cause than cowing America?

fabricated, manufactured, distorted

like the Koran

Posted by: Ynkedoodl2 [TypeKey Profile Page] at May 1, 2007 9:53 AM

the problem arises when Muslims infringe upon the rights of the citizens of the host country...Muslims further aggrivate hostilities by trying to force their ways upon the host country and by trying to institute their own laws and customs as a replacement of the host countries laws and customs....

.....history shows when Muslims feel they have enough power they will institute these changes by force....

...this nonsense must be stopped...no matter what the cost is...

Aha!!! So, CAIR is admitting that the Jewish faith does a better job than they!!! Who would have thunk it?

Muslims have been very good at playing the victim game. We've seen them fake war crimes in Lebanon and Gaza and the West Bank. Now there is a book that suggests the Srebenica "genocide" of the 1990s was a hoax and that the Muslims who were dug up from those mass graves had actually died many years before and were reburied in the mass grave to convince the gullible Western press that Christians were killers.

Was 'Srebrenica genocide' a hoax?

For more than 10 years, the term "Srebrenica" has been used to denote the slaughter of "innocent Muslims" at the hands of Christians – more specifically, the Bosnian Serb army, alleged to have slaughtered, according to the version currently accepted by most major media, "between 7,000 and 8,000 Muslims" when it captured that small town in eastern Bosnia in mid-July 1995. As the story goes, the Bosnian Serbs captured this "U.N.-protected zone" and proceeded to take away and execute thousands of men, women and children in the space of several days, subsequently burying them in mass graves that are still being dug up almost 12 years later.

Belgrade-based historian and researcher, Milivoje Ivanisevic, who has been documenting Yugoslavian civil war casualties for more than a decade, has recently challenged the claims in a new booklet, "The Srebrenica Identity Card," which documents hundreds of bodies buried at the Srebrenica Memorial that were not killed in July 1995, when the alleged genocide took place, including cases of people who died natural deaths a full 13 years before the event took place.

The newest evidence offered by Ivanisevic indicates a number of those buried at the Srebrenica Memorial Complex not only were not killed in July 1995, but actually died much earlier, even in the early 1980s – more than 10 years before the civil war in Yugoslavia even started.

so. CAIR admits playing a victim is part of the game plan....of course, we already knew that....

"…It is very important for Muslims to understand the law, and it’s also very important for Muslims to exercise their legal rights in the country".


Ah, the irony of it all. CAIR wants Muslims to make the current laws work for them so that one day those same laws can be replaced by glorious sharia. They had better do so, because if sharia ever does become reality Muslims will find their rights curtailed under it. Better to get their fill of rights under infidel laws while they're still around.

Whine, cry, and stamp those feet. And, why not? These tactics, by CAIR and others, have been so successful...use them more often..the government and the mainstream media and academics will come crawling to you and your many complaints and needs. Who would have thought on 9/12/2001 that foot basins would be installed in airports for Islamic use and American children would have to learn the 5 pillars of Islamic faith and recite Muslim prayers in public schools? Just think what the next five years can bring in terms of more victimhood and victory for CAIR and their clients!!

OT

“… If Hazrat (Prophet) Mohammad is not declared the superman of the world by May 10, all non-governmental organizations will be blown up,” the slogans on the metal sheets read in the Bengali language. They were signed “the al Qaeda network” in English."

CAIR does not have to make them up as CAIR will stage them.

This will catch allot of heat, but Martin Luther King jr. staged his events. He picked Alabama knowing redneck police there would beat the bajesus out of black kids and chew them up with dogs.
He used children as fodder for a cause which no one ever wants to discuss.
CAIR will stage the same events as they already had the flying imams. They will get it figured out that instead of dupes in turbans they will use crying children just like the Vietnamese were published by CBS.

It doesn't matter if it is staged or not in crying kids makes Rosie mourn and Oprah demand something be done. In the end, Martin Luther King jr. got a holiday and those black kids got bama beat and are still existing in old age poverty just like American GI's are crippled up and Vietnamese Communists are ruling the roost in Saigon.

The winner gets the terms and Islam is figuring out how to stage events where they will get some cop to Rodney King beat him or some white kids to beat up some crying Muslim embalmed in wool girl.

The vultures have picked Anna Nicholes carcase and summer is on....Islam is prime time for an event to Muslim Brotherhood beat the Americans into submission. You can do all sorts of Ghandi things when you hide behind a god.

--Awad, from the article--

Please sir, let's do talk about the 6 Imams' case. Let's talk about how CAIR was attempting to silence free speech of passengers who witness, in their estimation, suspicious behavior.

We agree that this is very important, and that history is being made...oh wait, history was made already on this subject.

Damned arrogant Islamists.

Victimism, is yet another 'ism' tactic used by Islam to weaken the enemy. Listening to Islamics whine about victimhood is disgusting...

The Middle East Forum has established a special study area called The Threat of Lawful Islamism, where you can get informed on this strategy to destroy us: http://www.meforum.org/islamists.php.

Randy Taylor well-summarizes this situation in his article: Islam: Setting the United States up for the fall: http://www.homelandsecurityus.com/Taylor031907.
Concise - recommended reading.

Anybody whose attitude is "Call us a religion of peace or we'll chop you head off" is, to put it mildly, a loser in the victimhood game--no matter how hard it tries.

Posted by: Kepha [TypeKey Profile Page] at May 2, 2007 7:33 AM

Not all victims deserve sypmathy.

This time we can blame the victim--with legitimate reason. And deport these b*st*rds from our homeland before they murder any more of our people.

ps-For what it is worth (zilch?), the "National Enquirer" printed a feature story this week mentioning that the perpetrator of the massacre at Virginia tech had an accomplice who is an Islamic jihadist and is still at large. We'll see. (I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be more than partly true really).
