NJ: Muslim mayor demands resignation of Board of Ed member for “Islamophobic” remark

Jun 29, 2017 11:59 am By Robert Spencer

“‘This is not Sharia law, this is an orderly session,’ Anderson is alleged to have said.”

What Mayor Mohamed Khairullah should say in response, instead of calling for Anderson’s resignation, is “This is not Sharia law, this is the freedom of speech,” and said that Anderson should stay in her position. But alas, no.

“Board of Ed member made ‘Islamophobic’ remark, Syrian-born mayor says,” by Anthony G. Attrino, NJ.com, June 28, 2017:

PROSPECT PARK – The borough’s Syrian-born mayor is calling for the resignation of a board of education member, claiming the woman made an “Islamophobic remark” as he spoke during a public meeting.

Mayor Mohamed Khairullah claims he was expressing his position on an issue Tuesday during a Prospect Park Board of Education meeting when board member Emma Anderson interrupted.

“This is not Sharia law, this is an orderly session,” Anderson is alleged to have said.

Sharia law is a body of Koran-based guidance that points Muslims toward living an Islamic life. The New Jersey chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations says Anderson’s alleged remark – in the context in which it was made – is offensive….

    It seems to me she made an accurate statement in her first sentence. How can one be fired for that? I do not know if it was an orderly proceeding. I may be wrong though. Perhaps Sharia was in effect. This is NJ after all.

    For those unfamiliar with how the game is played, “Islamophobic remark” translates into English as “truthful remark.”

      “Islamophobic” is a hollow word. Citizens should reject the craven use of this Communist word as an attack on rightgeous rejection of American/Western/Judeo-Christian values.What exactly is the problem with rejecting 7th Century Arab desert values which are out of place in the 21st Century ?

    • Wellington says

      Jun 29, 2017 at 1:29 pm

      There are lots of Muslims in New Jersey, especially in the northeast and in particular Bergen County where Prospect Park (quickly becoming Muslim Park) is located. Also, NJ right now has a very Muslim-friendly Governor in Chris Christie who is profoundly ignorant of Islam and years ago said that talk about Sharia and its many menaces is just crap and he didn’t want to hear anymore about it. He has also appointed at least one Muslim to the New Jersey judiciary. NJ is presently finding itself with more and more Muslims yearly and so things are not looking too rosy for the Garden State (also because it’s one of the worst states for taxes). It’s all a damn shame because there are many parts of New Jersey which are quite beautiful, examples being virtually all of Hunterdon County and the mysterious Pine Barrens, but I wouldn’t recommend to anyone moving to New Jersey right now. Nope, I wouldn’t.

        The WEST & the US seem to be bowing to ISLAM ! ISLAM detests Democracy & Free speech & the agenda is to wait until Muslims numbers can control the Democracies they have come to !
        At that time or before there will be calls for the SHARIA to be the law of the land & FREE SPEECH will end !

        Read the Muslim Brother Hood Agenda & the plan & pattern are very clearly stated !

        GET YOUR GOVERNMENTS to STOP LYING !!!

      Everyone above is correct. NJ is California, only smaller. Many call it the “Peoples Republic of New Jersey”. I am a refugee.

      It will soon go the way of all the big tax and spend states like Illinois today, soon Connecticut, eventually California and NY. Their debt and the Cadillac pensions and heath care plans available only to loyal government workers are not sustainable. California brags about being the 5th largest economy in the world. BS. They are so over leveraged and committed to giving away so much free stuff for generations to come, they are the next Enron, or Puerto Rico. Take your pick.

    “Mayor Mohamed Khairullah claims he was expressing his position on an issue”…

    I’d like to see the full text of the mayor’s comment. If they were discussing an issue and it was a question of American LAW, and the mayor was quoting text from Sharia sources, then the board member was entirely correct to interrupt, because discussing precepts of Sharia Law is a COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME when dealing with American Constitutional Law. Sharia Law has no standing in the USA. None. Period. Would you waste time during an official board meeting discussing Venezuelan Law?

    • MR says

      Jun 30, 2017 at 8:59 pm

      I work in Prospect Park and am familiar with this situation.
      They were not discussing any laws. She believed she was being disrespected/dismissed because she is a woman, therefore the shariah law comment.
      Instead of being a real leader, one who has the power to mend fences, the mayor has decided to use this as a political tool. Very sad for the community.

    From the NJU.com article….

    “Khairullah declined to answer questions about what occurred at the Tuesday board of education meeting and instead released a statement late Wednesday afternoon through the Council on American-Islamic Relations.”

    CAIR, the unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Trial for the funding of a designated terrorist organization.

    • Shmooviyet says

      Jun 29, 2017 at 3:07 pm

      Yes– interesting how Mr Mayor runs to CAIR to register his complaint of ‘phobia against this member (and perhaps get some advice?)- then declines to answer what happened, responding through a whiny CAIR statement instead.
      Will the board member be allowed to answer what moved her to use the phrase, or has she been muzzled? The mayor appears thin-skinned and quick to defensiveness.

    First, There is no such word as “islamophobia, ‘Islamophobic’ etc. If a non-muslim make a remark toward a muslin cair is going to object automatically.

    Two, I thought there was a law baring anyone having seditious ideology from emigrating to the USA. Practicing Shariah law is sedition.

    • MAS says

      Jun 29, 2017 at 2:13 pm

      Wow. Brilliant! Ti Michelle Connelly it never occurred to me to think of sharia law in terms of sedition. I am going to research the matter. Thanks for the insight/hunch. MAS

      I think the law is in one of the amendments to the Immigration and Naturalization Act. The immigration laws have been modified several times but Sen McCarron speaking for the Act of the same name in 1952 rings true….

      Truman’s veto was overridden by a vote of 278 to 113 in the House and 57 to 26 in the Senate.

      Speaking in the Senate on March 2, 1953, McCarran said:[4]

      I believe that this nation is the last hope of Western civilization and if this oasis of the world shall be overrun, perverted, contaminated or destroyed, then the last flickering light of humanity will be extinguished. I take no issue with those who would praise the contributions which have been made to our society by people of many races, of varied creeds and colors. … However, we have in the United States today hard-core, indigestible blocs which have not become integrated into the American way of life, but which, on the contrary are its deadly enemies. Today, as never before, untold millions are storming our gates for admission and those gates are cracking under the strain. The solution of the problems of Europe and Asia will not come through a transplanting of those problems en masse to the United States. … I do not intend to become prophetic, but if the enemies of this legislation succeed in riddling it to pieces, or in amending it beyond recognition, they will have contributed more to promote this nation’s downfall than any other group since we achieved our independence as a nation.

      Is he prophetic even without intending to be so?

    My question is this… Which idiot political party actually sponsored this Syrian for the mayoralty? What does this minority representative have in common with the pace unless those is a Syrian Arab majority community in the first place. You see, I’m not being a bigot, but somebody’s pet project to show how culturally superior they are by nominating a culturally incompatible minority to be mayor is backfiring. Whoever that party and whoever their supporters are should be identified and condemned.

        Jun 29, 2017 at 6:44 pm

        Unfortunately due to the pressures of the liberal powers that be and the power of CAIR, all truths about the Muslims are considered Islamophobia by the above mentioned. The truth happens to be inconvenient facts about Mohamed that would be swept under the carpet. That’s is why they insist so much on imposing blasphemy laws or labeling people as “Islamophobic”, to hide the horrible truth about their false prophet. They know no decent human being could accept Mohamed was a good person or even more a prophet. A good practicing Muslim knows the Koran, Sharia Law and the Hadith all require complete submission to Islam, which is antithetical to the US government, the Constitution, and the Republic. All Muslims who attest that the Koran is their life’s guiding principal subscribe to submission to Islam and its form of government. The freedom of speech should allow the truth to come out as an education for the American people to see and hopefully understand the Muslim threat to the American people and the American core beliefs..Think twice before inviting a Muslim into your heart and the community. The Muslim agenda is to push the Sharia Law on the American people and make demands that allow only the Muslims to be above the American law. This is part of their creed.

    If he is calling for her to be taken off the board, he should have to make public what he said that caused her to respond in a way that he found so offensive that he is calling for her to be taken off.

    If it happened in a court of law, he would be required to say what he said in the first place. He should be required to make public everything he said.

    The only reason he is mayor of a city in the U.S. is to further islam and its unholy code of evil conduct. He will use any means to reach that goal.

    Mayor Mohamed Khairullah is a practicing Muslim that wants to push his Muslim agenda. Push his Sharia Law on the good American people. Chris Christy is bought and paid for. Chris Christy and Mayor Mohamed Khairullah will be gone on the next election cycle. Thank god. Emphasis should be on removing the censored speech about the truth about the Muslim society and their agenda. The truth should be free and open for anyone to have. The Islamic Council of Victoria is equal to CAIR making demands on the American taxpayer. Obama set the precedence allowing the Muslim body in the United States special privileges allowing religious exemptions and freedom from pledging allegiance to America. What makes this country great is the American people can expect equal treatment under the law. The Muslim society expect they will be treated as they were above the law which is against the constitution and the core beliefs of the American people,. Obviously, the Muslim society is not comparable with the America’s core beliefs and the constitution. Emphasis should be on removing the censored speech about the truth about the Muslim society and their agenda. Think twice before you encourage the Muslim body to come to our community. No Islamic can be a loyal citizen of the US since Islam is prohibited by the US Constitution (Article 6). Remember, Islam is not a religion but a theocracy – a political system with a religious component.

        Hi G.I.!

        Hugs & love to you! Nice to see you and everybody here, too.

        I found a link to an email address where everyone can send Superintendent Allison Angermeyer an email. And I can’t tell you how important it is for you to do that. A friend of mine who knows Pamela and Robert very well and i went down to the Nokesville mosque hearing in Prince William Co, VA Tuesday night to watch the Muslim dog and pony show and it was sobering. Besides my friend we couldn’t get anyone else to go down and support us and you know why? Because Americans don;t believe this is actually going on. But there had to be over 300 people at that hearing with an 8:1 ration of Muslims to everybody else. The board voted unanimously in favor of the Muslims even though they are going against long established county land laws. Nokesville is also an area where many people own property that has been in their families since 1900. There is no major industry anywhere in that area, just farm land on two lane roads. And so the Muslims decided they wanted it and the Chairman, Corey Stewart of get-rid-of-the-illegal-aliens fame in PWC (because he did) told a few people while he was running for the Republican nomination for Governor here a couple of weeks ago that he was going to vote yeas for the mosque so as not to cost the county the money it would entail when the Muslims sue via the DOJ. Isn’t that nice? Corey was brave enough to stand against the Hispanics but he caved in quickly when it came to the Muslims.

        And oh, how well organized they were the other night. I waited in line 95 mins before it started and I was # 106 on the list to speak. Unfortunately they are setting us up for a civil war and it’sgoing to be nasty, nastier than WWII. And the average American has no idea how hot the water is getting in their frog pot.

    I feel frustrated by thus article and clip. Maybe I’m being thick, but there’s not enough information here for me to grasp what the hell was going on. I can’t understand anything the mayor was saying – too garbled. I don’t know what the BofE woman was referring to with her comment, why she said it, and therefore don’t know what to think about it.

    Did the is the mayor a Sharia menace and the woman has a good point, or is the mayor a superficial Muslim and this woman is always giving him unnecessary hell from her own prejudice?

    But the fact that the mayor would go to a group like CAIR to deal with this board member suggests that he’s no MINO. That much I *do* get.

    • Isabellathecrusader says

      Jun 30, 2017 at 5:26 pm

      Buffster, the mayor would not give up his time. He just kept repeating and repeating the same thing over and over again and finally. Dr. Anderson let him know that she was not pleased. He’s putting her in her place by calling CAIR and getting them to try and get her fired. Go to CAIR’s website and look at the big sad, sad story that they’re talking about regarding this issue. They know it’s all bullsh_t but they are getting away with murder this year so they are going to push it for all its worth.

    THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE USA IF THE MODERATE MUSLIMS CONTINUE TO INFILTRATE OUR GOVERNMENT and all other facets of society (DAWA).Sharia Law will be instituted little by little until when the Muslims are in majority, Sharia Law will be practically in place.
    Furthermore, the Muslims demand in a very loud voice “offensive” when anything is said that could possibly be construed as hate speech. These morons know nothing about freedom of speech. EVICT THEM ALL AND BAN THEM FROM RE-ENTRY….Send them all back to the Middle East to live in tents and caves where the uncivilized belong…ISOLATION IS THE ONLY SOLUTION TO DEAL WITH MUSLIMS. Queen Isabella evicted Muslims and banned them to save her country, Spain and we should follow her lead.
