Here’s some real news for the fake news purveyors over at the New York Times: the “far-right media” isn’t responsible for “anxiety about Muslim refugees.” Who is actually responsible? People such as Somali Muslim migrant Mohammad Barry, who in February 2016 stabbed multiple patrons at a restaurant owned by an Israeli Arab Christian; Ahmad Khan Rahami, an Afghan Muslim migrant who in September 2016 set off bombs in New York City and New Jersey; Arcan Cetin, a Turkish Muslim migrant who in September 2016 murdered five people in a mall in Burlington, Washington; Dahir Adan, another Somali Muslim migrant who in October 2016 stabbed mall shoppers in St. Cloud while screaming “Allahu akbar”; and Abdul Razak Artan, yet another Somali Muslim migrant who in November 2016 injured nine people with car and knife attacks at Ohio State University.
What’s more, all of the jihadis who murdered 130 people in Paris in November 2015 had just entered Europe as refugees. In February 2015, the Islamic State boasted it would soon flood Europe with as many as 500,000 refugees. The Lebanese Education Minister said in September 2015 that there were 20,000 jihadis among the refugees in camps in his country.
Meanwhile, 80% of migrants who have come to Europe claiming to be fleeing the war in Syria aren’t really from Syria at all. So why are they claiming to be Syrian and streaming into Europe, and now the U.S. as well? An Islamic State operative gave the answer when he boasted in September 2015, shortly after the migrant influx began, that among the flood of refugees, 4,000 Islamic State jihadis had already entered Europe. He explained their purpose: “It’s our dream that there should be a caliphate not only in Syria but in all the world, and we will have it soon, inshallah.” These Muslims were going to Europe in the service of that caliphate: “They are going like refugees,” he said, but they were going with the plan of sowing blood and mayhem on European streets. As he told this to journalists, he smiled and said, “Just wait.”
On May 10, 2016, Patrick Calvar, the head of France’s DGSI internal intelligence agency, said that the Islamic State was using migrant routes through the Balkans to get jihadis into Europe.
But as far as the fake news purveyor known as New York Times is concerned, it’s all just fearmongering by the “far-right media.”
“Anxiety About Muslim Refugees Is Stoked Online by the Far-Right Media,” by Caitlin Dickerson, New York Times, January 28, 2017 (thanks to Lookmann):
Type the word refugees into Facebook and some alarming “news” will appear about a refugee rape crisis, a refugee flesh-eating disease epidemic and a refugee-related risk of female genital mutilation — none of it true.
For the months leading up to the presidential election, and in the days since President Trump took office, ultraconservative websites like Breitbart News and Infowars have published a cycle of eye-popping stories with misleading claims about refugees. And it is beginning to influence public perception, experts say.
That shift was evident on Friday, as many Americans heralded the news that the Trump administration intended to temporarily curb all refugee resettlement and increase the vetting of Syrians.
“There really is a kind of cultural battle going on,” said Cecillia Wang, the deputy legal director for the American Civil Liberties Union. “There’s no question that kind of xenophobic or anti-Muslim bias is infecting our political discourse about refugees.”
Breitbart, May 31, 2016: Syrian Refugees Spreading Flesh-Eating Disease, Polio, Measles, Tuberculosis, Hepatitis
In speaking to pollsters about refugee resettlement, Americans tend to cite concerns about the country’s national security and economic health as their biggest worries, but they have also begun to point to disease or rape, experts say.
“This is something where the fear outruns the fact by a factor of 100 to 1 or even 1,000 to 1,” said William Galston, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution who has tracked American sentiment about refugee resettlement over years.
Infowars, July 6, 2016: Muslim Refugees Causing Rape Epidemic in the U.S.
Mr. Galston said the reaction to misleading coverage of refugees was reminiscent of the wave of measures introduced in state legislatures in recent years to stop the spread of Islamic law, despite scant evidence that it has been promoted anywhere. And while he doubted that alarmist stories about refugees were powerful enough to change people’s minds, he said the coverage played to existing fears and pushed mere differences of opinion into hyperpartisan outrage.
“I think their opinions are being intensified because the intensification of contrary sentiments is increasing polarization,” Mr. Galston said.
Breitbart, Aug. 2, 2015: Muslim Immigration Puts Half a Million U.S. Girls at Risk of Genital Mutilation
Outside his job as a police officer in Kansas, Okla., Mike Eason begins and ends his day with the television news — first CBS, then Fox, but never CNN, which he hates. Then, he scrolls through Facebook, where he’s read stories about refugees who commit violent crimes against women.
“It’s one of them Facebook things where you see Muslim men are attacking women, and stuff like that, and having no respect for them at all. I’ve got a real issue with that,” he said. “I see story after story after story, and I don’t know how true it is.”…

The ONLY ‘refugees’ in HISTORY who will not and cannot Assimilate or Integrate among any non Muslims are MUSLIMS
CAN A MUSLIM BE A LOYAL AMERICAN?
This article is for all those Politically Correct dim wits and their liberal retards. I hope that all those who LOVE their country to read it from start to finish and send it on to others. One can replace American with any other none Muslim nationality on Earth and the result is the same.
To make sure readers appreciate how accurate it is, I challenge anyone – especially Keith Ellison, CAIR, ISNA, AMJA and Haroon Moghul – the sum of $100,000 to prove me wrong.
Theologically – NO. . . Because his submission is only to Allah – originally the name of the supreme rock god of Pagan Arabia- and hence most definitely not the same as the God of Jesus, Moses or Abraham.
Religiously – NO. . . Because no other religion is accepted by his Allah except Islam (Submission to Allah).
Al Imran 3: 85 “If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah) never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost”
Scripturally – NO. . . Because his allegiance is to Sharia based upon Muhammad’s Quran and Sunna.
Textually – NO … Because Muhammad’s Quran is Hatemongering, Warmongering, Misogynist, Racist, Intolerant, Duplicitous, Hypocritical & hence UNGODLY.
Geographically – NO. . . Because a Muslim bows in reverence to Mecca in Arabia, to which he turns in prayer five times a day.
Socially – NO. . . Because his devotion to Islam forbids him from making friends with Christians and Jews ~
Al Mai’da 5: 51 “O ye who believe! take not the Jews [Yahood] and the Christians [Nasara] for your friends and protectors: they are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them…”
Al Tauba 9: 29 “Fight [qatiloo] those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His apostle nor acknowledge the religion of truth [ISLAM] (even if they are) of the People of the Book [Christians & Jews] until they pay the Jizya [onerous penalty for not being a Muslim] with willing submission and feel themselves humiliated”
Loyally – NO … Because his allegiance is primarily to ALL other Muslims all over the globe.
Ishaq:231 “Muslims are one ummah (community) to the exclusion of all men. Believers are friends of one another to the exclusion of all outsiders.”
Politically – No. . . Because he must submit to the mullahs (spiritual Leaders), who teach equal opportunity HATRED for ALL those who are not followers of Muhammad (currently 80% of humanity called Ummat al Kuffar/ Nation of Infidels) as well as calls for the destruction of America, The Great Satan.
Al Fath 48: 13 “And if any believe not in Allah and His Apostle We have prepared for those who reject Allah a Blazing Fire!”
Domestically – No. . . Because he is instructed to marry up to four women and beat and scourge his wife when she disobeys him
Al Nisaa 4:34 “Men are the protectors and maintainers of women because Allah has given the one more (strength) than the other and because they support them from their means. … As to those women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct admonish them; refuse to share their beds; beat them …”
Legally – No. . . Because he cannot accept the American Constitution as binding since it is not from Allah’s Sharia as well as he believes the Bible is corrupted.
Culturally- NO… Because Muslims belong to a culture that prefers Death more than Life.
Ibrahim 14: 3 “Those who love the life of this world more than the Hereafter who hinder (men) from the Path of Allah and seek therein something crooked: they are astray by a long distance”
Constitutionally – No. . . Because Sharia is the nemesis of Democracy; it does not allow for freedoms of religion, expression or belief. Democracy and Islam is an oxymoron; a state of affairs that cannot possibly co-exist. Every Muslim government is either dictatorial, autocratic or theocratic and hence dysfunctional.
Spiritually – No. . . Because the USA declares ‘one nation under God.’ The Christians’ God is loving and kind, while Allah is NEVER referred to as Heavenly father, nor is he ever called love in the Quran’s 99 excellent attributes.
This is why American Muslims are so quiet and not speaking out about all the world wide atrocities allegedly committed by so called ‘radical’ Muslims.
Not once has there been a major demonstration – whether in Europe or the USA – by the so called ‘silent majority’ Muslims expressing their revulsion at acts of terror committed by these alleged ‘radicals’ shouting out loud “NOT IN OUR NAME!”
Muhammad said: SILENCE means CONSENT!
Therefore, after much study and deliberation…. Perhaps Americans should be very suspicious of ALL MUSLIMS in their country.
Muslims obviously cannot be both ‘good’ Muslims and good Americans. Call it what you will, these are the FACTS based entirely in chapter and verse upon their scripture.
Americans had better believe it. The more who understand these realities, the better it will be for Americans and their future generations.
This is NOT a clash of Civilizations but a clash of Beliefs.
Footnote: Muslims have PUBLICLY and repeatedly declared their intention to destroy the USA from within.
FREEDOM NEVER COMES FREE.

This past year the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade had to have large trucks blocking off every intersection and access point to prevent a Muslim from driving a truck into the parade route and crushing spectators. Yet it’s the “far right media” that’s stocking fears of Muslims.
Angemon says
Very well, Ms. Dickerson, please name these alleged “far-right” media outlets, explain how they’re “far-right” and then demonstrate how their stories are wrong. Because if they’re right, then there should be nothing wrong with this alleged “anxiety”.

Spot on. Thanks Angemon.

I find the Left/Right dichotomy increasingly irrelevant.
However, if it must be used, can anyone tell us of an ideology
more “right wing” than islam.
Nazi Germany is usually considered to epitomise Right Wing
extremism.
German women in the Nazi period could wear the latest fashions, drink & smoke,
dance, appear on stage, drive, go out alone & marry who they wished.
In any contemporary islamic state from Afghanistan to Saudi Arabia, these freedoms
if exercised would result in stoning to death.
Palin Smith says
National socialists (Nazi) were the farthest left ideology competing with communism.

My father told me, ( and I read it, in various periodicals of the era, and books) MOST OF THE LEFTIES IN THE US ( AND THOSE PARTS OF EUROPE THAT HITLER HAD NOT YET INVADED) saw NOTHING WRONG WITH HITLER, AND THE NAZIS, AND WANTED THE US OUT OF WW2.
It was ONLY WHEN HITLER INVADED RUSSIA THAT THEIR VIEWS CHANGED.
You are correct- Nazis are/were far, far left.

The far left media liars stoked anxiety about Trump for over a year. They have no voice now. Their fake news is not wanted. Go back to loafing, fools!
stan lee says
The truth surrounding possibility of assimilation, which is in effect joining the American “family” is well laid-out in the above outline.
They, Muslims, are driven by conquest and conversion to Islam of non-Muslims, by peaceful or violent means, it is all part of the Islamic picture.
I believe that they see themselves as extracting the best of freedom here, but allegiance to the nation is out of the question unless the nation is part of Islam. Rare exceptions to this are possible, but never significant.
Muslims consider themselves as superior to all others, when in fact Islam has not even developed anything as humble as a modified clothes pin in hundreds of years. Their emphasis is in praying five times per day, the ritual immediately before praying is a practice that won’t fit in American productiveness, and that is not to imply that Americans do not pray or are not religious…most Americans are and do practice in faith, yet can contribute to American progress also.
Wherever Muslims settle, if the areas in which they settle are part of the American “melting pot” of people, Muslims will not tolerate religious differences….they can’t even allow tolerance between Sunni and Shia Islam, for more than 800 years they have murdered each other about the two major sects of Islam. Even if they would decide to unite in order to battle Christians,Jews, Hindus, and Buddhists, they would still maintain incentive to erase one or the other branch of Islam. As I earlier stated, conquest and conversion (or death) are tenets by which Islam exists. It is truly unsuited for life in a constitutional republic.
Honor killing: To we Americans, “Honor Killing” is an inhuman practice, it begs the question if Muslims could ever settle near any free people whose laws preclude taking of life for a Muslim’s understanding of “Honor.” In example, a Muslim head of family or an elder of same, will ritually kill a child of the family for falling in love with a member of anything other than Islam, considering such practice part of the “honor” in Islam. And, those who take life in their quest for “honor” will expect shariia law to authorize or agree with taking of life in behalf of Muslim “honor.”
I could go on with more that reflects in Muslim inability to control their arbitrary solution to kill for “honor.” They come to any new land, any land with logical and beneficent laws successfully in place as to reflect the rights of peaceful freedom to all, which is discarded by Muslims who adhere to the laws of Islam which they bring with them as “Shariah.” Whether covertly or openly, they emphasize that living under a law like the Bill of Rights is not for them, they regard the BoR as inferior to Shariah. Therefore, they are indoctrinated with laws built upon arbitrary cruelty and primitive consequences.
They, Muslims, were allowed into U.S.A. as result of Obama’s schemes and his own duty to Islam, they were brought in, in hundreds of thousands and spread throughout Sanctuary cities, small towns and counties, in other words by “spread out” I mean dispersed so as not to be considered “hordes” brought. by the Obama Regime.
And, in all that time that Muslims were dispersed throughout our nation under Obama’s activities, .02 % of migrants/refugees were members of Christendom…in other words I believe relief for them was avoided by the Obama Regime in order to favor entry of Muslims.

HOW MANY DEATHS FROM JIHAD ARE ACCEPTABLE TO THE LEFTARDS?
During 2016, there were 1,274 Islamic attacks in 50 countries, in which 11,774 people were killed and 14,303 injured. About 30 people were killed by JIHADISTS every day during 2016.
Since the beginning of January 2017, there have been more than 38 jihad attacks; 425 killed; 412 injured; with 9 suicide blasts and attacks in 13 different countries.
How many jihad deaths are acceptable? 30 jihad deaths every day? 50 jihad deaths every day? 100 jihad deaths every day? 1,000 jihad deaths every day?
tom parry says
Maybe until there are no more Christioans?
Joe says
Yeah but, you are not counting the genocides. When Islam gets the upper hand such as in North Nigeria, North Sudan, and other places, they usually go through a period where they practice genocide against perceived threats. The number of deaths in these genocides rival the genocides are probably over a million over the last 15 years.
Terry says
IF THE JIHADIS ONLY KILLED OTHER MUSLIMS, in my view, the number is infinity.
IT IS ONLY WHEN THESE ANIMALS KILL INNOCENT PEOPLE THAT ONE IS TOO MANY.
Mongoose says
I would counter that muslims are stoking anxiety, and downright fear of muslims.

Far right nationalists have conducted over 30,000 terror attacks since 9/11, killing thousands of innocents. Oh wait, that’s Islam.
billybob says
Why doesn’t the MSM do a serious study of these endless reports we get about rapes and terror attacks and immigrants behaving badly, and apply their journalistic resources to putting all into perspective for us. That’s their job, isn’t it? There is such a dichotomy between the reports we are reading here at Jihad Watch daily and what is reported in the MSM, that this should be demanding their attention.
But the MSM just dismisses these stories outright, and fails to report on them. These problems just don’t exist in their world. Their stories are all about the plight of the refugees. There is something very wrong here. This is why we no longer trust the MSM. They are driven by an agenda to be SJWs that has blinded them to reality.
I am not one who uncritically reads reports on InfoWars. Much you find there is trash. But they are right about many things, especially on the issues that are important to us here at JihadWatch, and that is what gives them credibility – more credibility than they deserve. If the MSM would do their job, InfoWars would not exist. People would have many alternative sources of factual information and they would be repulsed by the nonsense found at InfoWars. This is the harm brought about by the MSM and their fake news.
Kay says
Good point. If it were simply irrational fears then all that would be needed would be factual reports that show what’s true.
MSM and its followers only discount through name calling.
La La says
And yet when a Muslim fakes an attack from a so called racist Muslim hater. This attack runs to the corners of the earth and back. Then when the truth does come out that they made it up, nobody hears about it.
I no longer get my news from the mainstream media, cannot trust them either. Just like the untrust worthy Muslim.
Expat88 says
If Donald Trump decided to do nothing to ensure our safety as a country and later there was a major attack the media would immediately blame him for not keeping our country safe.
On the other hand since he is trying to put measures in place to safeguard us the media is having a meltdown and the protesters are freaking out. So basically it is a no-win situation for him and he is damned if he does and damned if he doesn’t.
He needs to just keep governing according to what he thinks is right and not pay attention to all of the detractors. He is on the right track. He is a blessing for us.
Terry says
Actually, I think Trump is win win- if he succeeds in blocking the illegals- he wins- no attacks; if he loses and there are attacks-he wins- “I TOLD YOU SO”.
I prefer the no attacks. let the attacks take place in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq; Gaza and the West Bank- Muslim against Muslim.
Dexter L. Wilson says
The media is so far left that they call us far right when we represent the American People more correctly than they are willing to admit.
Peter says
Actually, it is the behavior of Muslim refugees who have engaged in mass murder, theft, fabricated victimhood incidents, vandalism of Christian sites, and the rape of women (including a 90 year old in Germany), little girls and boys, or attempted such acts, that are the inspiration for concern.
Terry says
Two points- does anyone read The New York Times anymore ( except, well, in the past, their financial section was good) (do not know about now) ,. With the exception of their true believers.
Point two–I AM GLAD SOMEONE/SOME ENTITY IS STROKING FEARS ( AND THE TRUTH ABOUT MUSLIMS.
