All too often we see this. The media (and even many counter-jihad organizations and groups that should know better) is so avid to highlight “moderate Muslims” that they get taken in again and again by Muslims who are anything but. But the Right is so cowed by the Left and its identity politics that it will keep playing along, anyway.
And yes, the sexual assault is an indication of a lack of moderation, and a hardline commitment to Islam.
More on this story. “Accused Twin Falls Muslim Was Used by Media as Example Two Months Ago,” by Lee Stranahan, Breitbart, August 10, 2016:
A Muslim Twin Falls man arrested over the weekend and charged with sexually assaulting a mentally retarded woman was quoted by local media in June as representative of Muslims opposing “bad things” and bemoaning the fact that the “picture of Muslims is getting worse.”
As reported by Breitbart News yesterday, Mohammed Hussein Ibraheim Eldai was arrested Saturday and charged Monday in an incident involving a mentally retarded woman.
As local TV station KMVT reported:
Police then made contact with Eldai who, according to court documents, admitted to touching and exposing himself to the victim with the intention of having intercourse with her.
Officers placed him under arrest and transported him to the Twin Falls County Jail where he is being held on $10,000 bond. His preliminary hearing is set for August 19th.
On June 14, in the wake of the Orlando Pulse nightclub shooting — the deadliest Islamist terrorist incident on US soil since 9/11 — the very same TV station KMVT did a piece aiming to put a good face on the local Muslim community.
The TV segment and corresponding written piece titled “We do not agree with those people doing bad things” was an attempt to put a positive spin on the local Muslim community.
The segment showed an on-air interview with now jailed Mohammed Hussein Ibraheim Eldai and quoted him as saying:
“These bad people they do this stuff in the name of Islam, and Islam doesn’t say it like that,” said Mohammed Hussein Ibraheim Eldai. “Now the picture of Islam is getting worse because, I don’t know. I… hope these people are going to give up.”
The positive June piece about Muslims that quoted the now arrested Eldai was hosted by reporter Amy Reid.
Reid is the same reporter who was called out by Breitbart News for her dishonest reporting branding those questioning the Muslim refugee influx as racist….
Tuesday, the mayor of Twin Falls turned down an interview request by this reporter, claiming that Breitbart News was “anti-Muslim.”

Yup, they are always “moderate” until…THEY AREN’T! No such thing as a moderate Muslim. Given enough time the “moderate” mask begins to fade.

A “moderate” muslim is simply one that does not understand his own ideology….err “religion”.

mortimer says
A ‘moderate’ Muslim for Western elites would be “a Muslim who openly and definitely repudiates the violent, intolerant, supremacist passages in the Koran.” Such a person in the eyes of practicing Muslims is an apostate who should be executed under Sharia law for denying important doctrines of Islam.
Shane says
Correct, Mortimer, a good muslim is a bad citizen for any non-muslim country while a bad muslim can be a good citizen. When muslims start getting more religious, it is time to watch out for another Jihad attack.
J D S says
Mortimer…
That’s exactly why so called “moderate muslims” are as scarce as frog hair.
Ron says
Tight on, Roxy.. Muslim terrorists are not considered extreme by other Muslims because they are simply doing what their religion commands them to do. So-called “moderates” are not people of less violent tendencies so much as those who find active participation in terrorism inconvenient.

Peter…There in lies the problem…obummer has not only allowed, already, but is pushing for more and more of these probable terrorist into the U.S. He is helping promote what has been the plan of Muslims from the beginning of Satan’s religion
“World Domination” and it appears that our hands are tied in stopping him. He seems to be the only president in my lifetime,and I have been around since FDR, to be able to run roughshod over congress and the American people.
Stand up America or loose everything our forefathers stood for,fought for and died for!
Thank you Robert Spencer, Pamela Geller and others who are putting their lives on the line fighting for us against the onslaught of Islamic terrorist and Islamic domination.
Jaladhi says
Those who believe in existence of “moderate” Muslims are totally brain dead!1 There is no moderate Islam and there are no moderate Muslims. All Muslims follow the criminal diktats of that pedophile written in Quran as their religious duty and therefore you get what this Muslim is. Is there any intelligent Muslim who refuses to follow what is Quran and I will show you an apostate! LOL…. Sadly you will find only a few – they all follow Quran!!
Alvin Woods says
Gasp! Shock horror! His name is *mohammed* I would never have guessed.
August_West says
I noticed how the Jihadi spoke to police and told them what happened.
The only outcome from this situation that I can see is that there will be a CAIR program focused at the Sharia Set telling them to remain silent until they engage a CAIR lawyer.
They will use the 5th amendment to protect them while they disassemble the social fabric of the US.
If this can happen in Idaho – it can and will happen everywhere.
J D S says
The FBI surely has enough on CAIR to put them.on the terrorist list…WONDER WHAT OR WHO IS STOPPING THEM..I can truthfully state WHO isn’t stopping them…….
The Muslim Brotherhood..

Not sure what you trying to say by posting this. Can you please elaborate a little? m
gravenimage says
miriam, I think Clem means that you can expect this pro forma “Islam is not violent; ergo, Jihadists are not real Muslims” bs from local Muslims trotted out in the wake of any Muslim savagery.
eur says
.. so Mohammed was not real muslim .
Why Muhammad is called “the sword of Islam” ? why there is a sword in all the iconography of Islam ?
Worst of all is not terrorist violence. The worst is the cultural change that bring us Muslims , their totalitarian patriarchal culture. The veil means submission , you should wear it to be accepted in society, the woman accepts her role , that of devout woman , discreet , mother, wife , nanny and sex slave …. appearance is everything, must appear to be a good Muslim/muslima and criticize , despise and denounce who is not . Islam did not need inquisition in the Middle Ages .. because every Muslim is an inquisitor , a macho , controlling and dogmatic .
gravenimage says
All true, eur.
J D S says
Even If islam removed all of the sword verses out of the Koran Even that would not pay for all the blood the sword of Islam has taken..That is exactly why Islam could not be the religion of Abrahsm, Isaac and Jacob neither is the God of these three the God of Islam…I find no place in the New Testament where Jesus tells Me to kill anyone. Of course, very unwisely, Islam only believes Jesus was a prophet and of course they’ll eventually pay dearly for believing this.
linnte says
If you go to the TV station by clicking on the reporters name, you can click on her name there and email her. I just did. She needs to hear about Islam. I encouraged her to read Qur’an and Hadith’s.

Good for you, Linnte. Always good to encourage journalists to really learn about Islam.
WorkingClassPost says
Yet more phobism on display.
Did he slit her throat?
Did he abduct and sell her off into slavery?
Did he stone her to death for adultery?
Did he burn her family home down to save his own ‘honor’?
None of the above… then he must be classed as a moderate muslim.

“… But the Right is so cowed by the Left and its identity politics that it will keep playing along, anyway..”
It’s not ‘the Right’ that’s cowed, it’s a case of the whole social edifice and its primary mode of thinking; indoctrinated and weighed down by notions of ‘group victimhood’ and ‘group emancipation’. Individual responsibility and conscience have been relegated to the back seat and our moral compass has slid out of view.

Twin Falls, is that not the town where Somali kids raped & urinated upon a helpless & mentally challenged child?. The Mayor in that case was a dick-head too, must be the same place.

The very same. This is what an influx of barbaric Mohammedans will do for a town.
Jay Boo says
Not “moderate” at all, but a TRUE Muslim — Just like Muhammad.
Muhammad married a six year old girl.
His namesake, Mohammed followed his Prophet’s example in exploitation of the vulnerable sexually assaulting a mentally retarded woman.
He was “bemoaning the fact that the “picture of Muslims is getting worse.”
He is correct about that.
The truth about Muslims is seeping out.
It is now unstoppable.
The image of Muslims will steadily get — much worse.
Rightly so.
