Bigger than the Islamic State. Bigger than Boko Haram. Bigger than al-Qaeda. Bigger than al-Shabaab. Bigger, of course, than Hamas and Hizballah and Islamic Jihad. Bigger than the genocidal anti-Semites of the Iranian mullahcracy. As far as the Islamic supremacist Nihad Awad of Hamas-linked CAIR is concerned, none of those jihadis are as big a threat to world peace and security than a nation of Jews who refuse to submit.
“Hey, Nihad, Look up. Look Down.,” IPT News, August 22, 2014:
Vladimir Putin’s Russian forces remain poised for a possible takeover of neighboring Ukraine. Nuclear-armed North Korea is ruled by an unstable, nihilistic dictator who constantly makes new threats against American allies and the United States itself (along with some of its filmmakers). The Islamic State terrorist group slaughters as many people who cross its path and poses a credible threat of genocide against the ancient Yazidi people in Iraq.
But according to Nihad Awad, head of the supposedly mainstream Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), those threats to global peace pale in comparison with the real threat to world peace and security: Israel.
What’s especially bizarre is that Awad’s assessment on Twitter is bracketed by tweets critical of ISIS’ brutality, which were posted after ISIS released video showing the vicious killing of journalist James Wright Foley.
Awad writes that Israel “targets civilians.” This is demonstrably false, given the warning calls and leaflets Israel’s military drops before targeting terrorists who do target civilians with the rocket fire, or the leaders of terrorist groups like Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad who sanction those attacks.
This is no mis-statement by Awad or an aberration. In July, he called for, “People of conscience: Declare Israel as a terrorist state for the war crimes it has been committing against civilians.”
The only terrorist entities are in Gaza, where Hamas diverted tens of millions of dollars that could have helped build an infrastructure and an economy to better the lives of Palestinians and instead used the money to stockpile weapons and build tunnels in hopes of committing mass slaughter of Israeli civilians.
We’ve repeatedly shown how CAIR was born out of a Hamas-support network in America; how its officials – Awad included – never utter a critical word about Hamas; and how they leap into action as “defenders of the Palestinian cause” when Hamas initiates violence.
Now Awad, who has led CAIR for its entire 20 year history, further shows how his Hamas sympathies skew his world view. No matter how much harm Hamas brings to Palestinians in Gaza, it is never enough to draw his scorn.
Why do people take this guy and his organization seriously?
Why indeed?

Projection at its finest……Nothing has changed in this world other than sciences, technology, medicines etc…Jew hatred and blame is alive and well as it always has been….
Whilst I was bought up in a traditional Jewish family in London and went to Jewish schools, spoke Hebrew and also lived on Kibbutz in Israel in the 80’s, I was never very practicing…
However the more I see and hear, the more I truly believe in the bible and its prophetic words…..
Nothing has changed in this world whatsoever…..Given the chance, I have no doubt, they would slaughter all the Jews on this planet…
Why are they so frightened of the Jews?
Well I know why……..
Charli Main says
From a Christian perspective, I also know the reason.
Islam is the tool of Satan and mad Mohammed His chosen anti-Christ, whose sole Satanic appointed job, is to destroy Judaeo-Christianity and any and everything else in the process—–until the whole of God´s world is an empty barren desert.
AnneM says
Remember that Satan’s time is getting short. All this attacking by Islam against both the Jewish and Christian faiths goes back to the time when the Devil was still an angel and he with other rebelling angels went to war against both God and the faithful angels in Heaven.
Silvia says
I’ll tell you why.
Basically they hate everybody. They have a unique hatred for the Jews because they rejected their pervert and his “message (to an extent, the same applies to the Christians being the other people of the book). I think their special hate for the Jews is the fact that the Jews were the first monotheists and they wanted their legitimacy which they didn’t get.
The Jews are the mirror of their utter failure. After 2000 years of horrors and a few holocausts, the Jews still managed to build a thriving, free country and did all of that while kicking their collective useless asses and without any oil to boot. That’s very humiliating.
Think about it. That piece of garbage they call “holy” tells them they are the chosen people, the world belongs to them. They will inherit the earth while all non-muslims are all manners of bad.
AND THEN THEY LOOK AT REALITY!
All muslim countries are shitholes! People are poor, miserable and frustrated. No matter what happened in the last 1000 years, their situation has only gotten WORSE. They look outside and almost EVERYBODY, all those infidels are doing way better. The Christian world (whether religious or atheist) is at the forefront of everything! The Jews are also pretty successful. The Buddhists are thriving, even countries that were failing only a few decades ago. The Hindus are on the rise, both in India and outside. And so on and so forth.
And what do all of the above have in common?
THEY ARE NOT MUSLIMS!!!
It’s maddening to them because it proves their beliefs and the promises they have been raised on as FALSE! SO they try to destroy everything because they can’t CREATE anything!
dumbledoresarmy says
Yep.
In M Scott Peck’s book about evil, “People of the Lie”, he points out that, among other things, evil people try to destroy anything that conflicts with their (false) picture of themselves and of the way things are. From the second chapter, “Toward a Psychology of Evil”:
“A predominant characteristic..of the behaviour of those I call evil is scapegoating.
“Because in their hearts they consider themselves above reproach, they must lash out at anyone who does reproach them.
“They sacrifice others to preserve their self-image of perfection…
“Since the evil, deep down, feel themselves to be faultless, it is inevitable that when they are in conflict with the world, they will invariably perceive the conflict as the world’s fault. Since they must deny their own badness, they must perceive others as bad. They *project* their own evil onto the world. They never think of themselves as evil; on the other hand, they consequently see much evil in others..”.
“As life often threatens their self-image of perfection, they are often busily engaged in hating and destroying that life – usually in the name of righteousness…”.

Of course , Israel is the only beacon of light and hope left/ the only place that wants peace/ the only place where you can live and live. Oh how bad, give me a break! Who wants PEACE more than Israel ?
Diane Harvey says
Muslims are rampaging, and that’s the right word, rampaging everywhere across the globe, to impose, again the right word, impose their intolerant religion.
Israel minds its own business, wishes to be left alone. But Muslims as its their wont hector Israel as they hector everyone else.
But in the warped view of Muslims, Israel is the biggest threat to peace and security.
There is no fixing evil.
SpiritOf1683 says
There is a fix for evil. The grave.
Sam says
The Jews should stop immediately cutting people’s throats, killing young children, throwing rockets on innocent people, throwing acid on young women, suicide-bombing, honor killing, hanging gays, burning mosques and not allowing other religions operate in Israel. Why can’t Jews be like these peace loving Moslems? Mind boggling!!!
joy says
the biggest threat to world peace and security”hamas boko haram; isis al qaeda, muslim brotherhood, ansar al charia ect ect
Jaladhi says
The biggest threat to all human beings on this earth are Muslims and Islam. Period. Their tally of human genocide is more than 350 million since inception of Islam. Who you gonna believe – this lying Muslim or the facts!!
Myxlplik says
Too funny, I’ve never seen Awad right next to this particular artistic rendering. It does have an uncanny likeness to the man holding it…
Wonder if someone should photoshop the bomb hat onto Awads head? I lack the skills for this, but someone here perhaps?
SpiritOf1683 says
What a pity he can’t be sent to somewhere appropriate – like Basra or Najaf. He’s probably a Sunni, so the Mehdi Army will keep a welcome in the hillsides for him.
Beagle says
Nihad Awad is publicly debating tactics with the IS, not goals. It’s possible he is actually afraid of the head-hackers of the IS, knowing as he must that one seemingly minor lapse by himself could make him a victim of people like that. Maybe Awad has a thing for boys, cigarettes, or likes to have a drink once in a while. But Awad is a devoted tongue and pen jihadi who wishes, like the IS, to make the whole world Islamic, to make sharia the only law, and to eliminate any non-Muslim rule over Muslims.
If Awad were a bit braver and smarter he would renounce Islam for its capability to turn ordinary children into vicious monsters.
Don McKellar says
I am an atheist who finds the very concept of a state founded upon a mythical religion preposterous. However, nobody who applies any logic or critical thinking could even remotely buy into this man’s insane claim. All the state of Israel wants is to exist and prosper. It is a shame that they insist on installing “settlers” in the rat holes of the “palestinian” territories. In my opinion, they should herd every single last “palestinian” out of those areas and deport them to the muslim rat holes next door, where they should have always been, anyways. That is the logical end to this ridiculous fiasco.

It doesn’t matter what these monkeys are saying anymore. I’ve been reading comments on many sites for more than a month now. I’ve never seen so many Israel supporters and so many that at least finally understand what these muslims are all about. Hell, you can find quite a few even ON THE GUARDIAN site that have seen the light.
With each passing day, more people see the truth, be they Americans or Europeans. I have no doubt the muslims will continue to do a great PR job with their beastly behavior everywhere because it’s how they are.
I’m actually happy idiots like this one continue with their “Da Jews, Da Zionists, Israel, are the devil” routine because in light of everything that’s happening it only serves to show people how demented and evil islam is.
I hope they continue with it.

Good morning Muslim world

All of the nihads of the world need to be confronted with facts face to face in a public debate internationally broadcast like it was the superbowl. By someone like Horowitz or Robert. And the members of isis, well they need a chainsaw enema.
