Minneapolis: Muslim pol denounces “Islamophobic” response to Muslim cop’s shooting of unarmed woman

Jul 24, 2017 8:16 am By Robert Spencer

“When other officers committed such acts it wasn’t ‘Norwegian’ or ‘German’ or ‘white’ or ‘Protestant’ or ‘Catholic’. All of a sudden it is a Muslim problem. I think it is racist, it is unacceptable.”

“Unacceptable”? Really? People expressing their opinions is not to be allowed, Mr. Warsame? The unpleasant fact is that Mohamed Noor was only on the police force because he was a Somali Muslim. He was a “diversity” hire. He had three complaints against him. His neighbor characterized him as “nervous” and “jumpy,” and said that he wasn’t surprised when he heard that Noor had shot an unarmed woman.

Yet he remained on the force. Why? Because he was a Somali Muslim. If the Minneapolis police force had been intent upon hiring Catholics (ha) and then an incompetent Catholic cop had shot and killed an innocent person, the shooter’s Catholicism would indeed be relevant. And it’s no different in this case, contrary to Abdi Warsame’s victimhood posturing.

“Somalian community hits back against ‘racist’ response to fatal shooting of Justine Ruszczyk,” 9News, July 24, 2017:

The Somalian community in Minneapolis has slammed what they claim is the racist and Islamophobic response to the fatal shooting of Justine Ruszczyk by police officer Mohamed Noor.

Minneapolis City Council Member Abdi Warsame was joined by around a dozen members of the East African community to push back on the “intense focus” on Officer Noor’s ethnicity and religion.

“Since Justine’s death there has been an intense focus on Officer Noor, blaming his actions on his race, ethnicity and religion,” Mr Warsame said.

“Former congresswoman Michelle Bachman insinuated that Noor might have shot Justine for cultural reasons.

“I’ve heard others describe this tragedy as a terrorist act carried out by a Muslim against a Christian.

“These horrific statements are dangerous and purely divisive.

“They hurt our east African and immigrant neighbours and friends.”

Mr Warsame also lambasted the media, who he claimed have unfairly focussed on Mr Noor’s ethnicity.

“What we’re seeing is a lot of rhetoric in the media where this is a Somali issue, where this person is a Somali officer,” he said.

“No, this man is an American citizen.

“When other officers committed such acts it wasn’t ‘Norwegian’ or ‘German’ or ‘white’ or ‘Protestant’ or ‘Catholic’.

“All of a sudden it is a Muslim problem. I think it is racist, it is unacceptable.”

Mr Warsame took specific aim at specific tabloid news organisations.

“For them to have a headline ‘Somali cop killer’, that is unacceptable,” he said….

    We have police officers making mistakes perhaps every day, however ,people that have a creed for living on this planet that tells them to kill all non-believers of the Muslim theocracy should not be on the police force.Noor will be praised for what he did at his mosque. Noor is now one step closer to his Allah. If you are a Muslim, you will abide by the American constitution and the law of the land. Should you break this law you will be tried and convicted as a criminal. Sharia Law will never be law in America. A practicing Muslim is unfit to be an American citizen. 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 and no other. 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.

      Eagle: You and myself and hopefully soon many others will come to understand what Islam really is. It doesn’t take long after even a very short examination of the tenets of islam before you realize they have no intention of integrating into American democracy and becoming law abiding citizens.
      The one tenet of islam “TAQUIYA” (deception) makes any conversation or discussion with a muslim meaningless as it is the concept that allows them to further their cultural jihad thru constant lies. How can you ever know if a muslim is being truthful—-YOU CAN’T.
      America is heading down the same road as Western Europe. Wake up and inform yourselves on what islam really is—-a war that has been going on for 1400 years and now has a firm foothold in America.

    “No, this man is an American citizen.”

    American? Only humans can be American. They’ve traded their humanity for an AK-47 and a shot at raping 71 virgin goats in the afterlife…

    This cancer must be expunged.

    Mohamed Noor was only on the police force because he was a Somali? Really? Now that’s racist.

    A terrorist is a terrorist it’s sad when our US government back’s down when A terrorist cries racism he should be held accountable. We as a society need to stop making terrorists immortal by posting pictures of them and using words like “terrorist”, just their name with a blank picture that way they can’t say there are martyr’s for their cause, we have to take that power back. If you watch the news clips of these terrorists when captured there smiling and smirking for the cameras.

    DIVERSITY CANDIDATES are ordinarily BELOW PAR and usually do not score well so they are given a ‘handicap’ of 10% to 20% above their actual test scores so they may be hired.

    This ADMINISTRATIVE CHEATING does not fool the rank and file who spot the FAKE CONTESTANT immediately and resent LIKE HELL the fraud.

    Hiring ON MERIT ALONE is the only reasonable course.

    DIVERSITY CANDIDATES are ordinarily BELOW PAR and PUT THE PUBLIC AT RISK.

    The RELIGION of this DIVERSITY CANDIDATE is relevant because he was hired BECAUSE of his religion and no other reason.

    Picky, picky, picky.

    When a white girl, Christian girl, Jewish girl, or someone whose heritage is Norweigan, etc , goes missing, or is found murdered, the headlines don’t shout any of those *labels*…only that the girl is missing or dead.
    When a moslum girl goes missing or is found dead…such as the recent case in Virginia, the headline screams her religious lable. And the moslums like it that way.

    Now there is a moslum who has committed a crime after his *ethnicity* was “celebrated”…and the celebration of his being from Somalia was not criticized by other moslijms…and his ethnicity and religion are not to be mentioned.
    They want it both ways….bring it out in all uppercase when it’s seen to be praise and leave it out entirely when it might be derogatory.

    The fact that this moslum finds it unacceptable is really of no importance. The noor guy, the moslum from somalia , murdered a woman…an innocent woman who was reporting a crime. If the fact that he is somalia-moslum was important when he was hired and “clelebrated,” then it is important when he coomits a terrible crime of murder.

    The DOCTRINE OF HATE in religion of Islam (called Al Walaa wal Baraa) is an important factor which would COLOR the judgment of a Muslim who is hired to serve the DIRTY, DISBELIEVING KUFAAR.

    Muslims are commanded by the doctrine of AL WALAA WAL BARAA to HATE the DIRTY, DISBELIEVING KUFAAR ‘for the sake of Allah’.

    The doctrine of AL WALAA WAL BARAA is a doctrine of religion-inspired BIGOTRY at the core of Islam!

    AL WALAA WAL BARAA is a CANONICAL doctrine of Islamic BIGOTRY.

    Predictably pathetic. Just wait for the Mayor to pile on and go on her next Islamophobia rant to protect her special hire, and by extension, her own poor decisions. She canned the police chief, appropriately. But she has guilty hands, in a political sense, in this too.

    Time for the victim’s estate to start a civil lawsuit because the Minnesota politicians are going to whitewash this shooting.

    Last I heard the shooter is on paid administrative leave yet is refusing to participate in the Departmental investigation. I do not understand why that is not reason enough to stop sending him a paycheck.

    And after a White cop shoots a Black kid, the media always put the word “White” in front of cop, and “Black” in front of the word “teen.” No exceptions. The media response then could be called White-ophobic, because they focus on White and never let go.

    In this murder case, the media DID NOT bother mentioning that the killer is Muslim. It gave his name, which made it obvious that he is a Muslim.

    This person refuses to see the truth, and is worth none of our time.

    Sorry, we have idiots all over the world. Here in Sweden we have the Stefan Lofven and Co, only IQ 97 but before you had this George Bush with IQ 91 – to be a president or a prime minister you do not need to be clever. Obama with his 102 – we are all normal but to understand shats goning on you need more.. Trump as I know has 156 and with this IQ – he is brilliant – we will see wonders going on even in some places he is not liked, especially around Free Leachrs, communists and some liberals… Sorry for my spelling, I have bad seeing and hearing…
    Please make US great again as I lived and worked there for years… I love US and noone can take that away from me… All this as i am a Swede – for me US is nte most. We have Communist government her in Sweden and this is very bad— Now I am 72 but remember the flights ww had to cam ranh bay, sigon, danang and the clark afb in the phil… US will always overcom idiots like this criminal Obama

    mooselimes cannot be trusted to act civilized. The death cult, izlaam, must be relegated to the fire and brimstone of Hell from which it rose, it’s the Devil’s spawn and its followers will see nothing but the wrath of the True God.

    Request for information:
    [1] Where is the evidence that “Mohamed Noor was only on the police force because he was a Somali Muslim”? Does the Minneapolis police department have diversity hiring program that gives extra help to some applicants but not to others? Where has the text of this policy been published? Can any non-Africans gain the benefit of this diversity hiring program?
    [2] Who, besides Somalis, are “members of the East African community” in Minneapolis? Does it include anyone from Egypt, Madagascar, Kenya, Zimbabwe, or Indian Ocean coastal South Africa?

  14. Berengaria says

    The Somali Community should pack up their Multiple wives, Kids& Slaves, then ask our Military to fly EM back to Somali!
    Most of us remember our Troops being dragged through the streets of Mogadishu, by the Somali Community. Our Political Leaders responded, by loading up Somalis & bringing them to America, for a free ride on the Taxpayers.
    This Ultra-Hypo NOOR, should be charged now, with the death of the Australian Lady, if Minnesota had American LE.
    Next thing that we hear, will be the announcement that NOOR has been promoted.
    This is Minnesota under SHARIA LAW!

    He is absolutely right, jwatch is stormfront against Muslims and reports on every incident which involves directly or indirectly someone with a Muslim background. That person becomes a Muslim and all his actions “Islamic”.

    Even beauty queens are potential taqqiya masters here.

    White cop kills somalian = racism
    somali cop kills white = islamophobia.
    somali kills somali = Colonialism

    Makes perfect sense right?
