Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Chicago: Leaflets threaten local Jews over Israel in Gaza

Jul 21, 2014 2:53 pm By Robert Spencer

CTFL gaza-protest-02.JPGIs any political authority in the U.S. going to denounce this savagery — or even acknowledge its existence? Or are government and law enforcement authorities going to let “Palestinians” bring their jihad to the U.S. and elsewhere in the West, for fear of being labeled “Islamophobic”?

“Leaflets threaten Chicago Jews over Israel in Gaza,” JTA, July 21, 2014:

Leaflets threatening the Jewish community because of Israel’s Gaza operation were found on parked cars in a Chicago neighborhood.

The leaflets found Saturday on six cars in the Pulaski Park neighborhood, in the northwestern part of the city, threatened violence if Israel did not pull out of Gaza and end its operation in the coastal strip that began July 8, the Chicago Tribune reported.

Chicago Police opened an investigation and notified the department’s hate crimes unit, according to the newspaper.

The leaflets were discovered a day after hundreds of protesters held a demonstration in downtown Chicago, including a “die-in” in which protesters representing the more than 400 Palestinians killed by Israel in the Gaza operation lay on the ground. Some 20 Israelis, most of them soldiers, have been killed in Israel’s effort to stop Hamas rockets and destroy the terror group’s tunnels into Israel. About 1,500 rockets have been fired into Israel, and five Hamas cells have been thwarted emerging from tunnels dug under the Israel border en route to carrying out terror attacks.

The demonstrators then moved their protest in front of the Israeli Consulate in Chicago, according to the Tribune.

    “hate crime unit”?? Muslims are at the top of the political correctness hierarchy. They can’t commit” hate crimes”. They can only be victims.

    Islam reminds me of Nazism.

      Nazi Jew hatred was fanned by Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Grand Mullah of Jerusalem, who was a friend of Adolph Hitler. He even supplied 20 thousand
      European Muslim troops, who manned the concentration camps, the so-called 13th Division Waffen SS Haudschar. Always remember Muhammad’s words, found in his Hadiths (commentaries): “The Day of Resurrection will not arrive until you fight the Jews… until a Jew will hide behind a tree and the plant will say: `Oh Muslim, servant of Allah, there is a Jews behind me, come and kill him´.” Muhammad’s hatred of the Jews was brought about by the fact that they didn’t accept him as a prophet, so he personally commanded the decapitation of a whole tribe of 800 plus Jews in the Arabian Peninsula. Muslim hatred of the Jews is part of their religion and culture. What can be done about it? Should the Jews just meekly bow their heads to the sword of the murderous Muslims? This they did, in the days of Adolph Hitler, and six million of them were killed. “Never again”, they should say, and fight to the last man, if needed.

    With the hydra-headed goals of jihadists, this action in Chicago (spawning ground of Obama where his protegee Rahm Emanuel, potential quisling to the Jewish people, is now mayor) meets at least a couple of the objectives:

    (1) right now in a major American city, harass and show unchecked muscle and unmitigated hatred by Muslims of Jews (terrifying to those without the strong spiritual compass to withstand and overcome); and
    (2) for the longer range planning of stealth jihad, feed the “interfaith equivalency” model by which non-Muslims will be able to say in Congress that the Hate Crime Reporting Act of 2014 (S. 2219 and its companion bill in the House from Muslim Congressman Hakeem Jeffries) are needed to monitor against hate crimes — which of course would put JW and its commenters in the zone for criminal prosecution by pro-Islam (or “interfaith equivalency”) prosecutors of subjectively indicted “hate crimes” aka blasphemy (aka “slander” misnamed by Obama) against the putative Prophet of murderous Islam as it operates through Muslims in the 21st century. See, there ya go, I just cannot help but blaspheme Islam when I tell the truth about it.

    Yes, stealth jihadists are tricky enough to have staged the recent anti-Semitic leafletting in Chicago with both goals (1) and (2) in mind. See, e.g., http://whatdidyousay.org/tag/the-hate-crime-reporting-act-of-2014%E2%80%B3-s-2219/

    We can do something about this, with our freedom to use our words.

    The usual milque toast B.S. regarding S. 2219 can be seen at this link: http://www.opencongress.org/contact_congress_letters/56591-S-2219-Hate-Crime-Reporting-Act-of-2014

    It’s my suggestion instead that everybody concerned about stealth jihad in the U.S. write (email, fax and/or USPS) their Senators and Representative — addresses and contact forms are at their respective websites as elected leaders — and likewise encourage family, friends and email list acquaintances likewise, with a personalized letter along these lines:

    “Dear __________:

    With alarm at current efforts in Congress to erode Constitutional free speech and related religious freedom in the United States, as your constituent I am respectfully writing to urge you to do everything in your power to ensure that Senator Markey’s inaptly named Hate Crime Reporting Act of 2014, S. 2219, never makes it out of committee and cannot become American law.

    S. 2219 and its companion in the House, Congressman Jeffries’ H.R. 3878 (also in committee), attacks both the First Amendment and our rich history of freedom of speech. It must be stopped in the U.S. Senate and never allowed to become law. As you no doubt know, some other countries without our Constitution have blasphemy laws used to silence free speech. S. 2219 is an end run around the Constitutional preclusion of blasphemy laws in the U.S. by established Supreme Court precedent. The end run of S. 2219 is designed to curtail both free speech and freedom of (and from) religion by chilling effects through data collection policing of online communication that could never be technologically secure from militant hackers (or internal leakers) collaborating with extremists who have vengeful intentions.

    S. 2219 if enacted would police online writing subjectively deemed offensive by ideologues intolerant of Constitutional freedoms as well as ideologues intolerant of dissenting voices on matters of religion and liberty.

    Tolerance cannot be fairly interpreted as never contributing anything online as written speech that the intolerant would subjectively characterize from their remote computers as hateful simply because the intolerant would rather a different point of view not be stated on the internet.

    The Constitutional protections exist precisely because the intolerant would otherwise enact penalties against those who criticize their objectionable conduct or ideology as violently applied.

    There are only reasons not to enact S. 2219. For instance, hateful and offensive to me as a woman and mother of a daughter, the proposed S. 2219 would have a decided chilling effect on my writing online about the continuing duty to rigorously prosecute the appalling perpetrators of “honor killings” as well as “honor” punishments (by which females are maimed and murdered by male family members for perceived infractions of correct dating conduct). S. 2219 could be interpreted to collect governmental data about and then block me from communicating (i) my opposition to Sharia Law enclaves on even a trial basis in the U.S. for reasons including the need uniformly to send a message of prosecution under U.S. law of the so-called “honor killings” and (ii) the need to enforce consistent modern medical standards for all female citizens against the horror and maiming of FGM. Also, as a blog contributor and hobbyist scriptural exegete in the Judeo-Christian tradition, S. 2219 if enacted on behalf of the intolerant would impede my Constitutional freedoms to unfavorably as well as favorably compare the scriptures of my religious heritage with those of all other religions.

    S. 2219 if enacted would unduly privilege as a form of legislative supremacy through internet data collection any religion whose adherents have a history of overreaction to criticism. Author Salman Rushdie remains under a religious leader’s death threat since 1988, for example, for daring to write and publish an unwelcome book. It is bad enough for a religion to use militant adherents’ penchant for violence to quell all but the highly courageous from speaking their mind and writing their truth. It would be prima facie unconstitutional on so many levels for the U.S. Senate to compound the religious silencing of dissenting views in America by enacting S. 2219.

    Lady Liberty is watching us, and this is a crucial time in American history. It is my hope that you will use your influence to see that neither S. 2219 nor any similar legislation is enacted in contravention of both freedom of speech and freedom of (and from) religion. …”

    If Rahm Emanuel doesn’t clamp down on this hate mongering, Chicago will see its own Krsytalnacht

  6. Jan Fourowls says

    Jul 21, 2014 at 5:27 pm

    Krsytalnacht for Chicago could be in the alternate covert decision-tree planning of the leaders of America’s new oligarchy. But that’s only a plot in fiction I’m writing; to actually think that would make me a conspiracy nut, right?

    Dearborn, MI, is only 4 hours driving distance from Chicago. Chicago is headed by a major Obama crony. Obama is consistently selling out the security of the American people (unsecured southern borders, no No-Fly List, MB at his bosom, etc.) Even 7 years ago Dearborn was known as the Islamic capital of America, http://www.renewamerica.com/columns/zieve/070111. Now Muslims run the Dearborn city council. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/11/06/arab-americans-become-majority-on-dearborn-mich-council/3460591/

    These are interconnections with which any conspiracy nut worth his salt would have a heyday.

    Seriously, at least write your elected leaders to oppose S. 2219 and H.R. 3878. At least take one constructive action to stem the tide!

    These bastards forget that today’s Jews fight back. This time there will be a heavy price to pay.
    Think of every civilization that persecuted the Jews. How’d they do?
    Just sayin’

    I wonder what Israeli-born Rahm Emmanuel is thinking at this point.

    • Myxlplik says

      Jul 21, 2014 at 9:59 pm

      He is probably thinking, “It is time to immigrate back to Israel, Obama’s America isn’t safe for Jews.”

    I feel that most anti-Israel activists are uninformed–especially in the U S, where the majority of college activists are completely ignorant of history. Even if I do not comment on the culpability of Israelis or Palestinians, I would like to know the following –

    -Where the outrage on the Left in regard to Muslim atrocities over the last twenty years in the Sudan, where Muslim militia have committed genocide against 300,000+ black Christians, nativists and black Muslims of the “wrong sect?” This is absolutely true—the International Court at the Hague indicted President al-Bashir of the Sudan for genocide and crimes against humanity. Where is the outrage?
    -Nigerian Muslims have been killing thousands of Christians and nativists for many years. Where are the
    Leftists?
    -In the Philippines, where only 4% of the population is Muslim, there have been terrorist acts for generations so the Moros can gain independence (4% of the population). The Filipinos granted semi-autonomy to the Moros, but killings, kidnappings and other atrocities continue as now the Moros are demanding complete independence. Where is the Lefts compassion for the gentle Filipinos.

    I could continue, but my point is that the Left has, for some unfathomable reason, decided to take up the
    cause of a Muslim society with diametrically oppossed concepts of LGBT rights, religious freedom, womens and childrens rights. There are virtually NO Islamic countries that extend Western-style rights to minorities. Period!
