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

Robert Spencer in FrontPage: CAIR’s Hooper: US Muslims’ ‘Mental Health Issues’ Cause Them to Fake Hate Crimes

Dec 30, 2016 8:43 am By Robert Spencer

Even fake hate crimes are caused by “Islamophobia.” My latest in FrontPage:

Here’s a new twist: the establishment propaganda media’s narrative that Muslims are always victims is breaking down with the continuing revelations that Muslims have faked “anti-Muslim hate crimes,” and so now ABC News has doubled down: Muslims are victims, you see, because they fake anti-Muslim hate crimes. They’re driven crazy by “Islamophobia,” doncha know.

“These false reports unfortunately give ammunition to the industry of Islamophobes who promote the demonization and dehumanization of Islamic Muslims,” says Hamas-linked CAIR’s Ibrahim “Honest Ibe” Hooper. “Islamic Muslims,” Ibe? Are there non-Islamic Muslims now? Anyway, note how deftly Hooper plays the victim card even in the process of being exposed for falsely playing the victim card: the fake hate crimes are not a challenge to the veracity or trustworthiness of Muslims; rather, they’re tools in the hands of the alleged “Islamophobes” who supposedly “promote the demonization and dehumanization of Islamic Muslims” — as if its demonizing and dehumanizing someone to ask him to be honest.

Hooper added that the Muslim community “is under great psychological stress and tension right now, and that that in itself can cause mental health issues that lead to these types of incidents.”

Why is the Muslim community, in Hooper’s view, “under great psychological stress and tension”? Because of all the hate crimes against Muslims, you see, which drive Muslims so crazy that they…fake hate crimes against Muslims.

How did Avianne Tan of ABC News keep from laughing right in Hooper’s face? She either kept a straight face because she is a fully indoctrinated true believer in this nonsense, or because she knew her establishment propaganda media bosses would look askance at her thinking critically in the face of Hooper’s ridiculous statements.

But it is understandable why he uttered those statements: he had to do what he could to shore up his failing narrative. Hate crimes, after all, are political capital. When real ones don’t exist, they must be invented. Hamas-linked CAIR and other Muslims have on many occasions not hesitated to stoop even to fabricating “hate crimes,” including attacks on mosques. A New Jersey Muslim was found guilty of murder that he tried to portray as an “Islamophobic” attack, and in 2014 in California, a Muslim was found guilty of killing his wife, after first blaming her murder on “Islamophobia.”

This kind of thing happens quite frequently. The New York Daily News reported that “a woman who told cops she was called a terrorist and slashed on her cheek in lower Manhattan on Thursday later admitted she made up the story, police said early Friday. The woman, who wore a headscarf, told authorities a blade-wielding wacko sliced open her face as she left a Manhattan cosmetology school, police sources said.”

We were told that a Muslim boy was attacked and beat up on his school bus in North Carolina — but a photo showed him without a scratch and no one on the bus corroborated his story. And recently in Britain, the murder of a popular imam was spread far and wide as another “Islamophobic hate crime” – until his killer also was found to be a Muslim. The Mirror reported that the imam “was targeted because he had made efforts to turn youngsters away from radical Islam.”

According to The Detroit News, a Muslim woman, Saida Chatti, was “charged with making a false police report after she allegedly fabricated a plot to blow up Dearborn Fordson High School to retaliate against the November terrorist attacks in Paris….Police say Chatti called Dearborn investigators Nov. 19, six days after Islamic extremists killed 130 people in Paris.”

And similarly in Britain, a Muslim woman was “fined for lying to police about being attacked for wearing a hijab. The 18-year-old student, known only as Miss Choudhury, said she was violently shoved from behind and punched in the face by a man in Birmingham city centre 10 days after the atrocities in the French capital on November 13.”

It is virtually certain that we have not seen the last anti-Muslim hate crime that turns out to have been faked by a Muslim. Being a victim is a coveted status in our Leftist-dominated society. Even individuals and groups who are not victims try to gain this great honor for themselves. It’s easy to understand why in light of Hooper’s statements here: once one is recognized as being part of an established victim group, the mainstream media will treat even one’s most absurd claims with respect bordering on reverence. It’s a heady status to have. It’s no wonder that Ibrahim Hooper would be fighting with everything he has to maintain that status, even as the cynicism and dishonesty of the whole enterprise has been so abundantly exposed.

      Hooper has a strange face. Maybe he had mental issues; that’s why he converted to Islam and has not strayed since then despite being bombarded daily with the sad truths about it. Back to that face: almost lifeless, no emotion. See a shrink soon, Mr. Hooper.

    That feeling when you can’t tell the difference between a real news piece (at least, as “real” as ABC News can get) and an Onion piece… 😀

    Why just US Muslims, all Muslims have “mental health issues” that causes them to murder, rape, invade terrorize non-Muslims all over the world. Hooper should acknowledge this fact! Ha, ha, ha,..

      In the case of Hooper, when you are guilty of the same or a perpetrator of these same crimes, you’ll defend it to the maximum. Nice try SHITHEAD.

    I am tired of this mental idiot opening his pie hole!! I am looking forward to the council for all islamic radicals (cair) finally shut down and designated a terrorist organization by President Elect Trump and his administration!!

      You can say that again Rey!

      You know what’s wonderful? These things can be what they are, HILARIOUS, now that we’ve elected Pres. Trump. Because we know now that we’ll be protected.

      And I expect what you do: That CAIR will be deprived of its tax-free ‘religious’ status. FAST.

      Oh, what a thing it is to hope again!

    …………………..

    Muslims are so traumatized by reports of fake hate crimes it forces them to report fake hate crimes…

    It’s not islamaphobia, it’s islamarealism, the knowledge that people are waking up to just exactly islam is all about. They fear the idea that we will laugh at them, Also that we will poke holes in their idea of their superiority.. Worst of all, we may make them THINK or be rational. That really would cause mental health problems for then

    I SAY THAT THE NBC NEWS AND ITS ENTIRE ESTABLISHMENT ACTUALLY HAVE A MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEM LIKE THE MUSLIMS THEY ARE SO DEFENDING DESPITE THE MURDERING OF THE INNOCENTS THEY’RE DOING, HENCE THE REASON WHY THEY REPORT FALSE NEWS. THE UNITED NATION SHOULD RECOMMEND A TEAM OF SHRINKS TO COMPACT THIS PROBLEM. OH FORGIVE ME BUT I HAVE TOTALLY FORGOTTEN THAT THE UNITED NATION THEMSELVES HAVE GOT A MENTAL OBSESSION AGAINST ISRAEL ESPECIALLY THE JEWISH STATE. OH MY APOLOGIES, AGAIN. I ACTUALLY FORGOTTEN THAT THE WORLD MAINSTREAM MEDIA ALSO HAVE AN OBSESSION AGAINST ISRAEL/JEWS (HATEFUL OBSESSION). HOWEVER, SINCE THE ENTIRE UNITED NATIONS IS HAVING A MENTAL BREAKDOWN, I’D LIKE TO PRESCRIBE THE CURE FOR THIS INCURABLE SICKNESS. I’LL EMPLOY THE NATO DEFENCE FORCE TO ROUND THEM UP THROW THEM ALL INTO ONE SMALL ISLAND IN EUROPE AND LET THEM FIGHT IT OUT OR NEGOTIATE A 14 STATE SOLUTION AND SEE IF THEY CAN LIVE UNDER THE CONDITION THEY ARE PUSHING ISRAEL TO LIVE IN WITH THE MURDEROUS MUSLIM ARABS CALLED PALESTINIAN. OF ALL THE LAND THE ARAB COUNTRIES COMPARED TO THE SPEC OF AN EYE ISRAEL/JEWS IS TRYING TO LIVE IN PEACE WITH ITS CITIZENS. THERE IS NOTHING GOOD THAT THE MUSLIM ARABS WHERE EVER THEY ARE FROM IN THE MIDDLE EAST HAVE GIVEN THE WORLD BUT WHAT IS THE WORLD/EUROPEANS GOVERNMENTS AND HATERS OF THE JEWS ARE DOING. I’LL LET YOU ANSWER THAT QUESTION. I SAY MAY GOD BLESS THE JEWISH PEOPLE AND PROTECT ISRAEL UNTIL GOD PUTS AND END TO THIS INJUSTICE.
