Jihad Watch

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

Robert Spencer in FrontPage: Khizr Khan, Servant of the Global Umma

Aug 1, 2016 11:06 am By Robert Spencer

His son died in service of the U.S. military; now his father is using his memory to advance a different cause. My latest in FrontPage:

Khizr Khan

The mainstream media is wild with enthusiasm these days over Khizr Khan, the father of a Muslim soldier, Humayun Khan, who was killed fighting in Iraq in 2004. Khizr Khan, brimming with self-righteous anger, spoke at the Democratic National Convention, where he delivered what the Washington Post dubbed a “brutal repudiation of Donald Trump.” Trump responded, elevating Khizr Khan to the status of full-fledged flavor-of-the-moment media celebrity. There’s just one catch: Khizr is using his son’s memory not to advance the cause of the United States, as his son apparently died trying to do, but to advance a quite different cause: that of the global umma.

The well-heeled and powerful backers of the global jihad – those who have enabled the Islamic State (ISIS), al-Qaeda, and other jihad groups to grow as powerful as they have today — are enraged at Donald Trump. They are deeply worried by his call for a temporary moratorium on Muslim immigration into the United States, as that will make it much more difficult for jihadis to get into this country. They are anxious to stigmatize any and all resistance to jihad terror – and so, happily enough for them, is the Democratic Party, which has eagerly signed on to the longtime strategy employed by Islamic supremacist advocacy groups in the U.S., to demonize all effective measures against jihad terror as “bigoted” and “Islamophobic.”

So it was that Khizr Khan, in the full fury of his indignation at the DNC, trotted out a straw man, falsely claiming that Trump wanted to “ban us from this country.” Trump has said nothing about banning Muslim citizens of the U.S. from the country, only about a temporary moratorium on immigration from terror states. Even worse, all the effusive praise being showered on Khizr Khan in the last few days overlooks one central point: he is one man. His family is one family. There are no doubt many others like his, but this fact does not mean that there is no jihad, or that all Muslims in the U.S. are loyal citizens.

Khizr Khan is enraged at Donald Trump, but is Trump really the cause of his problem? Jihad terrorists, not Donald Trump or “Islamophobes,” killed his son in Iraq. And if Donald Trump or anyone else looks upon Muslims in the U.S. military with suspicion, it is with good reason: does any other demographic have as high a rate of treason as Muslims in the U.S. military? In 2003, a convert to Islam, Sgt. Hasan Akbar, murdered two of his commanding officers in Kuwait. In 2009, Major Nidal Malik Hasan murdered 13 Americans at Fort Hood.

Other than those attacks, a Muslim in the U.S. Navy discussed sniper attacks on military personnel. A Muslim U.S. naval engineer allegedly gave an Egyptian agent information on how to sink a U.S. carrier. In 2015, a Muslim National Guard soldier in Illinois planned an Islamic State jihad attack against a U.S. military base. Last February, a U.S. Army enlistee who vowed to “bring the Islamic State straight to your doorstep” pleaded guilty to attempting to detonate a car bomb at Fort Riley military base in Kansas. Just days ago, a U.S. Air Force veteran was convicted of trying to join the Islamic State.

Then there is the U.S. Muslim who gave the Islamic State U.S. military uniforms, combat boots, tactical gear, firearms accessories, and thousands in cash. Where are those uniforms now?

It is good that there are Muslims in the U.S. military who are loyal. But can we have a discussion about those who aren’t, and why they aren’t, and what can be done about it? Such a discussion is vitally necessary, but it wouldn’t serve the classic objective of the global umma, to increase the dar al-Islam (house of Islam) at the dar al-harb (house of war). Nor would an open discussion of Khan’s Sunday morning assertion on Meet the Press that terrorists “have nothing to do with Islam.”

We constantly are told this, but the repetition doesn’t make it true. In the first place, jihadis repeatedly make clear that they think what they’re doing has everything to do with Islam:

“Jihad was a way of life for the Pious Predecessors (Salaf-us-Salih), and the Prophet (SAWS) was a master of the Mujahideen and a model for fortunate inexperienced people. The total number of military excursions which he (SAWS) accompanied was 27. He himself fought in nine of these; namely Badr; Uhud, Al-Muraysi, The Trench, Qurayzah, Khaybar, The Conquest of Makkah, Hunayn and Taif . . . This means that the Messenger of Allah (SAWS) used to go out on military expeditions or send out an army at least every two months.” — Abdullah Azzam, co-founder of al-Qaeda, Join the Caravan, p. 30

“If we follow the rules of interpretation developed from the classical science of Koranic interpretation, it is not possible to condemn terrorism in religious terms. It remains completely true to the classical rules in its evolution of sanctity for its own justification. This is where the secret of its theological strength lies.” — Egyptian scholar Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd

“Many thanks to God, for his kind gesture, and choosing us to perform the act of Jihad for his cause and to defend Islam and Muslims. Therefore, killing you and fighting you, destroying you and terrorizing you, responding back to your attacks, are all considered to be great legitimate duty in our religion.” — Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his fellow 9/11 defendants

“Allah on 480 occasions in the Holy Koran extols Muslims to wage jihad. We only fulfil God’s orders. Only jihad can bring peace to the world.” — Taliban terrorist Baitullah Mehsud

“Jihad, holy fighting in Allah’s course, with full force of numbers and weaponry, is given the utmost importance in Islam….By jihad, Islam is established….By abandoning jihad, may Allah protect us from that, Islam is destroyed, and Muslims go into inferior position, their honor is lost, their lands are stolen, their rule and authority vanish. Jihad is an obligation and duty in Islam on every Muslim.” — Times Square car bomb terrorist Faisal Shahzad

“So step by step I became a religiously devout Muslim, Mujahid — meaning one who participates in jihad.” — Little Rock, Arkansas terrorist murderer Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad

“And now, after mastering the English language, learning how to build explosives, and continuous planning to target the infidel Americans, it is time for Jihad.” — Texas terrorist bomber Khalid Aldawsari

All of these, of course, may be dismissed as “extremists,” although they were also all devout Muslims who were determined to follow their religion properly. And then there are the many passages of the Qur’an exhorting Muslims to commit acts of violence:

2:191-193: “And slay them wherever you come upon them, and expel them from where they expelled you; persecution is more grievous than slaying. But fight them not by the Holy Mosque until they should fight you there; then, if they fight you, slay them — such is the recompense of unbelievers, but if they give over, surely Allah is All-forgiving, All-compassionate. Fight them, till there is no persecution and the religion is Allah’s; then if they give over, there shall be no enmity save for evildoers.”

4:89: “They wish that you should disbelieve as they disbelieve, and then you would be equal; therefore take not to yourselves friends of them, until they emigrate in the way of Allah; then, if they turn their backs, take them, and slay them wherever you find them; take not to yourselves any one of them as friend or helper.”

5:33: “This is the recompense of those who fight against Allah and His Messenger, and hasten about the earth, to do corruption there: they shall be slaughtered, or crucified, or their hands and feet shall alternately be struck off; or they shall be banished from the land. That is a degradation for them in this world; and in the world to come awaits them a mighty chastisement.”

5:38: “And the thief, male and female: cut off the hands of both, as a recompense for what they have earned, and a punishment exemplary from Allah; Allah is All-mighty, All-wise.”

8:12: “When thy Lord was revealing to the angels, ‘I am with you; so confirm the believers. I shall cast into the unbelievers’ hearts terror; so smite above the necks, and smite every finger of them!”

8:39: “Fight them, till there is no persecution and the religion is Allah’s entirely; then if they give over, surely Allah sees the things they do.”

8:60: “Make ready for them whatever force and strings of horses you can, to terrify thereby the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others besides them that you know not; Allah knows them. And whatsoever you expend in the way of Allah shall be repaid you in full; you will not be wronged.”

9:5: “Then, when the sacred months are drawn away, slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them, and confine them, and lie in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they repent, and perform the prayer, and pay the alms, then let them go their way; Allah is All-forgiving, All-compassionate.”

9:29: “Fight those who believe not in Allah and the Last Day and do not forbid what Allah and His Messenger have forbidden — such men as practise not the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book — until they pay the tribute out of hand and have been humbled.”

9:111: “Allah has bought from the believers their selves and their possessions against the gift of Paradise; they fight in the way of Allah; they kill, and are killed; that is a promise binding upon Allah in the Torah, and the Gospel, and the Koran; and who fulfils his covenant truer than Allah? So rejoice in the bargain you have made with Him; that is the mighty triumph.”

9:123: “O believers, fight the unbelievers who are near to you; and let them find in you a harshness; and know that Allah is with the godfearing.”

47:4: “When you meet the unbelievers, smite their necks, then, when you have made wide slaughter among them, tie fast the bonds; then set them free, either by grace or ransom, till the war lays down its loads. So it shall be; and if Allah had willed, He would have avenged Himself upon them; but that He may try some of you by means of others. And those who are slain in the way of Allah, He will not send their works astray.”

To be sure, there are some tolerant verses in the Qur’an as well — see, for example, sura 109. But then in Islamic tradition there are authorities who say that violent passages take precedence over these verses. Muhammad’s earliest biographer, an eighth-century Muslim named Ibn Ishaq, explains the progression of Qur’anic revelation about warfare. First, he explains, Allah allowed Muslims to wage defensive warfare. But that was not Allah’s last word on the circumstances in which Muslims should fight. Ibn Ishaq explains offensive jihad by invoking a Qur’anic verse: “Then God sent down to him: ‘Fight them so that there be no more seduction,’ i.e. until no believer is seduced from his religion. ‘And the religion is God’s’, i.e. Until God alone is worshipped.”

The Qur’an verse Ibn Ishaq quotes here (2:193) commands much more than defensive warfare: Muslims must fight until “the religion is God’s” — that is, until Allah alone is worshipped. Ibn Ishaq gives no hint that that command died with the seventh century.

The great medieval scholar Ibn Qayyim (1292-1350) also outlines the stages of the Muhammad’s prophetic career: “For thirteen years after the beginning of his Messengership, he called people to God through preaching, without fighting or Jizyah, and was commanded to restrain himself and to practice patience and forbearance. Then he was commanded to migrate, and later permission was given to fight. Then he was commanded to fight those who fought him, and to restrain himself from those who did not make war with him. Later he was commanded to fight the polytheists until God’s religion was fully established.”

In other words, he initially could fight only defensively — only “those who fought him” — but later he could fight the polytheists until Islam was “fully established.” He could fight them even if they didn’t fight him first, and solely because they were not Muslim.

Nor do all contemporary Islamic thinkers believe that that command is a relic of history.

According to a 20th century Chief Justice of Saudi Arabia, Sheikh Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Humaid, “at first ‘the fighting’ was forbidden, then it was permitted and after that it was made obligatory.” He also distinguishes two groups Muslims must fight: “(1) against them who start ‘the fighting’ against you (Muslims) . . . (2) and against all those who worship others along with Allah . . . as mentioned in Surat Al-Baqarah (II), Al-Imran (III) and At-Taubah (IX) . . . and other Surahs (Chapters of the Qur’an).” (The Roman numerals after the names of the chapters of the Qur’an are the numbers of the suras: Sheikh ‘Abdullah is referring to Qur’anic verses such as 2:216, 3:157-158, 9:5, and 9:29.)

How does Khizr Khan explain all that? He doesn’t — and he knows that no one in the mainstream media will ask him to. All this disinformation and obfuscation he is perpetrating serves the interests of the global umma – but not in any sense those of the United States.

    14 Muslims died in the US Armed Forces since 2001 we are told.

    That’s like 25% of a single mass Islamic Murder that we experience weekly.

    14 Muslims over 15 years is RANDOM NOISE or MARGIN OF ERROR not indicative of a trend or Muslim support for anything.

    It’s ludicrous to even cite these numbers as meaningful.

    Muslims need to be fighting radical Muslims, not fighting with the general population.

      HELLO BIFF — Please allow me to put up an important request at the beginning of this comment list:

      EVERYONE HERE SHOULD GO TO THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN WEBSITE (NOT HIS FACEBOOK PAGE) AND SEND THIS ITEM BY ROBERT.

      IMMEDIATELY NOW TODAY PLEASE. There is a small “Contact the Campaign” button at the *** BOTTOM *** of that web page. You do NOT need to give money by the “Donate” button.

      When you click on the contact link, it will bring up a template form asking for some basic information (so they can tell you are not a troll) AND A SPACE TO TYPE YOU REMARKS. What you write does not need to be long, and it would be a good idea to jot it down on paper first for clarity’s sake.

      BE SURE TO MENTION ROBERT SPENCER’S EXPERT KNOWLEDGE OF ISLAM AND HIS MANY YEARS WORKING TO EXPOSE THE REALITY OF JIHAD.

      The avalanche of mainstream media hysteria and hypocrisy is running constantly now about the Khan incident — by Democrat party seditionist goons who masquerade as serious reporters and analysts. WE MUST GET THIS ARTICLE BY ROBERT TO TRUMP SO HE CAN LATCH ON TO PERSPECTIVE CUTTING THROUGH THE HYPOCRISY.

      Trump’s campaign website probably receives thousands of emails every day, and overworked frazzled interns have to separate the good ones from the useless drivel. That’s why all of us and our friends and family should get on board with a few minutes to do this. If we manage to put hundreds of messages into the email inbox, several of them WILL MAKE IT THROUGH TO TRUMP.

        The only problem is I’m not actually in the USA or eligible to vote.

        I do not have the millions to buy candidates and votes like Hillary’s friends in China, Wall Street, Europe, Saudi Arabia etc.

        It’s seriously fucked up that Saudi Arabia (the source of most of the problems) gets to donate and run SuperPAC’s to support Hillary.

        Hillary’s friends would love nothing more then to get “fracking shutdown” to keep the money coming to the murderous Saudi Iman’s.

        The Democratic biggest fear with fracking is not the environment, but that the House of Saud needs to come up with a new money making scheme.

        Trump should give Robert Spencer at least a half hour of his time. Trump has ‘the feeling’ that there’s hate in Islam. He doesn’t perhaps know how much.

        Islam’s source texts and modern jihad manuals are overwhelmingly full of hate. Western elites cannot fathom the hate. If they would only crack open one out of all the foundational texts of Islam, they would be exposed to a small amount of the total. Genocide is normative Islam, rather than an aberration.

        With all due respect and honor to Captain Humayun Khan, his name is insensitive to Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists and Indians at large.

        The Mughal emperor Humayun massacred thousands of Hindus and Buddhists and destroyed great ancient temples. Muslims continue to name their children after mass murderers such as the Emperor Humayun.

        There is a reason Christians have stopped naming their children Adolf because the are sensitive to Jewish concerns and consider the most popular bearer of that name an abomination.

        But not Muslims. They still name their Children after mass murderers such as Jehangir And Aurangzeb. Turks still name their boys Gengiz and Attila. There’s jihadis or more correctly gazis are heroes in Islam.

        From the massacres of Medina to the slaughters world wide ,the perpetrators are heroes for Muslim.

        If the truth be know those killed by Muslims in India are between 50 and 100 millions.
        Those who name their children after their so called genocidal heroes are sending us a discreet message .

    He was responsible for his troops.
    But perhaps a bit careless.
    He moved toward a suspicious vehicle.
    Unknown why he apparently did not draw he weapon and order the vehicle to stop.

      Aug 1, 2016 at 12:00 pm

      Isn’t there something In Islam about not fighting for the enemy ? I.e. A true Muslim would not fight on the side of the kuffar. SO, if Khan were loyal to the US Military, he couldn’t be a real Muslim; If he was a real Muslim then his loyalty was other than the US military, which makes him a traitor.

      The Wrath of Khan’s father, you would think, would be more about whether his son died “in the cause of Allah” or died “in the cause of the kuffar”

      But on the other hand, he probably is just another angry, unhappy person and his wife should be required to wear a burka.

    • JS says

      Aug 1, 2016 at 12:15 pm

      That’s an interesting theory. I don’t deny that his son was a war hero. But when the first time I heard about Khan’s speech, my thought was: “what if his son actually committed suicide to kill other American soldiers?” or “If his son was truly patriotic, he might have been secularized and not a true muslim as his parent claimed him to be.” Just a thought.

    (Sorry, for all his knowledge and acuity, Dr. Walid Phares will not help Trump navigate these difficult traps and mines that are being placed in Mr. Trump’s path.)

    I fear Trump will continue to stumble over lies about Islam, jihad, etc., in the weeks to come.

    Does anyone here know such a scholar on Islam who might be available?

      HELLO STEVE — Please see my comment immediately after Biff started this thread at 11:11 this morning.

      Robert Spencer is one of America’s 4 or 5 pre-eminent experts on Islam and jihad. I would certainly put Dr. Bill Warner (www.politicalislam.com) and Dr. David Wood (www.anweringmuslims.com) in that small group too.

      SO LET ME SUGGEST THAT READERS HERE ALSO CONTACT THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN WITH THE NAMES AND WEBSITES OF THOSE TWO PERSONS.

      • Steve Klein says

        Aug 1, 2016 at 1:02 pm

        I already tweeted him (I think I did at any rate) yesterday. I recommend Spencer over all the others. Wood and Warner are OK though I doubt they’ve encountered the kind of sustained scrutiny Spencer and his friend and colleague Pamela Geller have encountered over the years; more so Spencer. When these things (like Khan who is misleading the American people about Islam) pop up, I always look for Spencer’s (not Wood’s or Warner’s) response.

        • jihad3tracker says

          Aug 1, 2016 at 2:07 pm

          Yes, we agree that Robert could be called “first among equals” as the old cliché says. Bill Warner and David Wood are much lower profile people with their own unique sliced of counter-jihad work.

          Dr. Warner’s is the authorship of many books (I bought “A Simplified Qur’an” and “Sharia Law for Non-Muslims” three years ago, and they are excellent).

          David Wood’s specialty is creation of videos (as you probably know), and abundantly cited scriptural pushback against the theological underpinnings of Islam — seen through the eyes of a deeply committed Christian.

      Undoubtedly Trump has competent advisors on every subject under the sun at his beck and call. Problem is, he probably doesn’t listen to them. Even if he does, he can’t control his undisciplined mouth and starts spouting off prematurely. To use a war analogy, he puts the torch to the powder before the cannon is fully loaded and it just blows up in his face. He’ll never win the war that way.

Why do you think he goes on TV every other day, fumbling and stumbling around for basic answers to basic questions? Why does he get on twitter and spew out childish insults? Where is his campaign manager? Where are the people campaigns hire to keep their candidate on target and focused?

      Trump doesn’t hire such people. He doesn’t need them. He doesn’t need anybody.

So far, he’s done a good job of it. I believe Khan to be a phony, standing on the body of his dead son to advance Clinton’s career. If I had lost a son, I would honor his memory and not use his loss for political purposes. He attacked Mr Trump at the DNC. Mr. Trump answered in kind. Whoever advised him to do that was correct.

      My personal beef (no pun intended) is not with Khan’s son. His son died for the country. I am irked by the way Khizr Khan has blamed Trump to wanting to “ban us from this country” as if that is his ummah’s birth right

      Who is “us”? Who is Khan representing? All muslims, just the sunnies, or the entire ummah or just the citizens? Or is it just those muslims that are in the country legally, i.e., citizens? How about muslims who are also in the country illegally? Or just those muslims who have sacrificed their sons and daughters in the service of this country?

      Let’s be clear. Khan was hastily paraded out as the token muslim whose son died in the service of his country. God bless his son. But why is he (papa Khan) taking the credit and extrapolating that to all the muslims in and out of the country?

      By saying Trump wants to “ban us from this country” he has cleverly chosen to represent all muslims by giving his son’s example. Does not make logical sense to me. For instance, German-Americans that fought for America in WWII could have asked the same question to Eisenhower “why do you want to fight all the Germans?”

He is a lawyer who edited a journal in S.A. about Islamic law. He is an admirer of Said Ramadan. He is an immigration lawyer (Muslim immigration) whose livelihood is at odds with Trump’s plans. Throw in a son who died in combat as an American soldier and you have Hillary-Huma’s perfect piece of pro-Muslim, pro-immigrant Muslim propaganda.

    Humayun Khan was a good American, but a ‘bad’ Muslim who fought and killed other Muslims, thus turning him into an apostate and a kafir who should have been executed, according to Sharia law.

    Khan specializes in programs selling US citizenship.
    The Examiner reported:
    The father of a Muslim American soldier killed in Iraq who is caught up in a war of words with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is an immigration lawyer who specializes in a highly controversial program accused of letting immigrants buy their way into the U.S.
    Khizr M. Khan’s website notes that he works to help clients with the E-2 and EB-5 programs that let overseas investors buy into U.S. companies and also provides green cards for family members.
    It also said that he helps in the purchase of U.S. real estate and businesses. The website lists his ability to practice in New York, though it gives a Washington phone number for the lawyer who lives in Virginia. A man who answered the phone said the website was correct, though he would not identify himself.
    “The E-2 and EB-5 are two of the most notoriously abused visa categories that essentially allow wealthy foreigners to buy their way to U.S. residency, and possibly citizenship, with a relatively modest investment,” said Jessica Vaughan, the policy director for the Center for Immigration Studies.

    I am not a “bigoted” and “Islamophobic” American. I am however very concerned that in the not too distant future muslims will value Sharia Law as having more authority than the constitution of The United States of America.

    Sharia Law is not freedom. It’s a totalitarian, political ideology, government, that is incompatible with the constitution of The United States of America.

    I don’t live in Turkey, Afghanistan, Pakistan, or Iran. I live in The United States of America!!!!

    Hopefully, American wakes up to this potential reality before it’s too late……

    Sharia law:
    • Theft is punishable by amputation of the right hand.
    
• Criticizing or denying any part of the Quran is punishable by death.

    • Criticizing or denying Muhammad is a prophet is punishable by death.

    • Criticizing or denying Allah, the moon god of Islam is punishable by death.

    • A Muslim who becomes a non-Muslim is punishable by death.

    • A non-Muslim who leads a Muslim away from Islam is punishable by death.

    • A non-Muslim man who marries a Muslim woman is punishable by death.

    • A man can marry an infant girl and consummate the marriage when she is 9 years old.
    
• Girls’ clitoris should be cut (per Muhammad’s words in Book 41, Kitab Al-Adab, Hadith 5251).

    • A woman can have 1 husband, but a man can have up to 4 wives; Muhammad can have more.

    • A man can unilaterally divorce his wife but a woman needs her husband’s consent to divorce.

    • A man can beat his wife for insubordination.

    • Testimonies of four male witnesses are required to prove rape against a woman.

    • A woman who has been raped cannot testify in court against her rapist(s).
    
• A woman’s testimony in court, allowed only in property cases, carries half the weight of a man’s.
    
• A female heir inherits half of what a male heir inherits.

    • A woman cannot drive a car, as it leads to fitnah (upheaval).
    
• A woman cannot speak alone to a man who is not her husband or relative.
    
• Meat to be eaten must come from animals that have been sacrificed to Allah – i.e., be Halal.
    
• Muslims should engage in Taqiyya and lie to non-Muslims to advance Islam.

Trump looks like a dimwit in comparison. The only thing he has going for him is that he dares to speak out against Islam. Other than that, he is a total idiot.

    The DNC handed him the Khans on a platter. Somebody with some brains could have torn the DNC to pieces, by holding his tongue while quietly collecting the facts, then letting them have it with both barrels aimed straight at their strawman argument. A true leader could have picked that argument apart succinctly without touching the grieving parents, nor the war hero son, who certainly does not represent Islam, nor any values associated with that religion. Could have made him an even bigger hero of him by showing that he had in fact renounced Islam by the very act of joining the infidel military. “He ain’t no Muslim, Bro!”

    Day after day I am totally astounded at the depth of idiocy of this man Trump blundering around with all the subtlety of a bull in a china shop, and lament that there is no one of any integrity to defend us against the evil of Islam at the leadership level. Once they destroy Trump, and they will, without a doubt – it will be all the harder to pick up the pieces and continue with the good fight.

    The answer for the parents of the muslim soldier is:
    Islam is not only a religion, like Christianity or Hinduism, but is also a system of laws and practices.
    These laws and practices, inherent to Islam, should be followed and ENFORCED by every muslim. This is what the Quran and the hadiths says. This is what we could see today in every muslim country, and in several western countries with significant muslim population, where sharia law is supported by the vast majority of muslim population, gaining ground even in europeans countries.
    And these islamic laws are in a clear conflict with the Constitution.
    I ask you: where is your loyalty, with the United States Constitution, ou with muslim laws and practices??
    There are no problem with the Islamic religion, if it were merely a religion; but Islam is MORE THAN a religion. Islam is a model of society blatantly contrary to US Constitution.

Better still when has Khizr Khan or his wife committed any heroic act in their lives comparable to their son’s on the deadly battlefield of iraq? How can the Khans fault Donald Trump for never heroically placing his life at risk to save others when neither they nor the Clintons nor most human beings in this world have ever done that? The Khans are typical partisan Democrat hypocrites redefining and distorting the universally accepted meaning of word “sacrifice” to suit their jihad to politically destroy Donald Trump. This is intellectually dishonest, morally shameful, and will fail with anyone who has a dictionary.

    THE KHANS IMMORALLY DISHONOR SON’S MEMORY

    Moreover, weren’t the Khans grossly and immorally dishonoring the memory of their son’s heroic death by politicizing it during a Democrat convention, dragging his brave, life saving deed through the muck and mud of election year politics? It is completely reprehensible that the Democrats put the Khans up to this; and that they let themselves be used as political attack dogs against Trump as if it were he who killed their good, noble, patriotic son and not radical, murdering, Islamofascist terrorists-which they never once mentioned.

    KHIZR KHAN NEEDS LESSONS IN CONSTITUTIONAL LAW

    Furthermore, what is unconstitutional about the President of the United States banning certain groups of people for national security reasons from migrating to this country when Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton did just that in 2011? Apparently they didn’t know and weren’t told that Obama and Hillary placed a temporary ban on Iraqi Moslem refugees from entering this country because Islamic terrorists infiltrated their ranks-which ISIS says it’s doing with Syrian refugees. Apparently it’s Khizr Khan not Donald Trump who desperately needs lessons in constitutional law.

    HILLARY CLINTON IS PARTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR CAPATAIN HUMAYUN KHAN’S DEATH

    And lastly, if the Iraq War was a wrong war that should never have been fought (as Hillary now says) doesn’t she then bear some blame for Captain Khan’s death because of her vote authorizing the war and 21 subsequent votes to reauthorize its funding? Why do the Khans feel moral outrage at Donald Trump and none for Hillary and her war vote which helped send their son to his untimely death?

    While Trump’s done nothing to hurt the Khans Hillary has done so indirectly with her gung ho support of the Iraq war from her vote on the Iraq War Resolution in 2002 to November 2005 when she said the war was a mistake but hypocritically voted to continue funding it until May 2007. Hillary can’t escape the fact that she has drops of Captain Khan’s blood on her hands (and that of 3000 other dead US soldiers killed in Iraq). The Khan’s outrage at Trump with none for Hillary is unjustified, trumped up political bullsh*t with no moral basis.

    Trump is famous for despising politicians, with good reason, but sometimes you have to play by the rules if you want to win the game. Trump may be a political genius, but from my perspective, attacks on the Khans looks like a bad political move. It’s hard to see where the votes are in going after people whose son died in service of the US. It’s a distraction that again takes the focus of Hillary. He could be talking about Benghazi and Pat Smith, but he chooses to focus on the Khans. And that looks like bruised ego rather than a clever strategy. Some have said this election is Trump’s for the losing. It is, but he has to stop shooting himself in the foot if he is going to win.

      This idiot Khan attacked Trump personally. Mr. Trump responded in kind. Where is it written that one does not have the right of self-defense? I would have no respect for Trump at all if he just stood there mute while being attacked by a left-wing Muslim supporting Hillary Clinton. Ridiculous.

    He is an Immigration Lawyer with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. He wants to flood the US with Muslims and bring Sharia. Walid Shoebat is reporting that “..he serves the interest of Muslim oil companies as well as Muslim immigration into the U.S. Intelius reveals Khizr M. Khan used to work for Hogan & Hartson and Lovells, which has ties to the Clinton Foundation: “Hogan Lovells LLP, another U.S. firm hired by the Saudis, is registered to work for the Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia through 2016, disclosures show. Robert Kyle, a lobbyist from the firm, has bundled $50,850 for Clinton’s campaign”

    Robert, when the Governor of California declares August Muslim Appreciation and Awareness month.
    When the DNC allows a sharia lawyer a 55 minute speech declaring Donald J. Trump a monster and evil man for wanting to control immigration so the Islamic hijra participants can be properly vetted.
    When the Obama administration sneaks $400 million in unmarked cash into Iran on an unmarked cargo plane, you begin to realize that something is very amiss in America and the rest of the westernized world.
    It makes me wonder when the President is going to declare sharia the law of the land by Executive Order?
