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

Robert Spencer video: Who is the real target of the Congressional resolution against “hate groups”?

Oct 20, 2017 1:15 pm By Robert Spencer

In this new video, I expose the insidious intentions of the Congressional resolution condemning “hate groups,” and explains why President Trump shouldn’t have signed it.

    This anti-hate speech law will be turned against Christians, and especially against the Catholic Church, if they preach against sodomy, or abortion, or adultery, or divorce & remarriage, or contraception, or any number of “protected ideologies.”

    @Robert Spencer

    Read the entire document published in April 2009 titled “Rightwing Extremism; Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment”
    DHS Doc IA-0257-09
    you can find a copy here: https://fas.org/irp/eprint/rightwing.pdf

    Note that the grounds for this document were extremely dated when it was published (14 years) and did not reflect current events in April 2009.
    Note it uses the identical verbiage found in “Common Core” “teaching” materials describing Mr Obama – yet he had only been in office four (4) months…..
    Note that it claims at least 70% of the US population are “potential domestic terrorists”…..
    Note that nowhere within this document is “islam” mentioned in any manner….

    Note that this document formed the cornerstone of Mr Obama’s attempts to demonize Military Veterans, Christians, people who are against Abortion or stand up for the Constitution and against “big government” ….
    Note that only two (2) House members actually stood up to this – but instead of demanding a complete retraction – demanded an “apology” to Military veterans………..

    Note that this document continues to exist today.

    Sir – Things are much worse than anyone can imagine and the truth is; regretfully, Donald Trump has not cleaned up the things that will eventually get Americans killed.
    Yes – he knows about this as I and hundreds of others have told him about it. (Special Operations Speaks members)

      OT. wondering whether or not the slowness of FEMA to act in certain venues has been encouraged by the existence and memory of the mindset this document engenders … many Christian efforts to provide assistance to flood victims have been neglected.

    I heard that and his comments about religious freedoms…to practice ….so now we need a definition of religion that qualifies it to be tolerant based on facts not dawah.
    I noticed a change in a particular library that a few months ago had Islam promoting books lining many shelves for easy viewing along with in the religious area a real unadulterated Quran, Reliance of the Traveler etc. Haddiths. Last visit that was either moved out or hidden far less front and center approach….I went looking but could not find it, as I was tailed by a librarian or maybe she just wanted to tell me “we are closing in ten minutes.” I said nothing…..

    So if I order my copy of Confessions of an Islamophobe what will happen? Will I get tackled.? I will buy it anyway…this will be interesting as I think this title will be reviewed and the reviewer will get a clear picture.

      My local library has long had many pro Islam books in its catalog. When I brought several of Robert Spencer’s books (and those of other truthful authors, too) the librarian was clearly not interested in adding them to the catalog–though the books were gratis. She suggested I put them in the lobby with the many other books “for sale”.

      • Rex Edwin Robards says

        I expect that the principal concern of the library employee who rejected your gift is about shelf space. The available shelf space is at a premium and is reserved for those books that have been selected (and purchased) by the designated committee for that purpose.
        What we need to do is identify the people who make these purchase decisions and confront them about their actions.

    Spencer is completely right in his assessment. A resolution like this is simply a sweeping generalization that is subject to abuse by anyone with the power to enforce its mandate. Such a resolution becomes a fail safe excuse for any left wing bigot to crush controversial or “hurtful” views. Unless of course those views happen to be in line with their own political agenda, then they’re all for free speech.

    The real haters are those working to destroy our freedoms and risk our safety for islam. There’s nothing more hateful than quashing fact based anger and fear about an ideology that promotes bigoted, supremacist ideas. The crux of their scheme is to portray our apprehensions about violent islam as a “phobia,” more specifically, “islamophobia.” And from that they declare our views to be nothing more than irrational expressions of hate against brown skinned people. Nobody truly believes they are fooling anyone with this racial smear against us, but being the fascists they are there was no need for any pretense of fair play, anyway. Multiculturalism is their religion, and we’re the prophets of doom rocking the boat with our pesky facts about bloody islam. And since there is no rational, moral way to defend islam’s anti-American supremacist agenda they have no recourse but strong arm tactics to beat us down. What they must remember, however, is we know the stakes are high. With their bad deeds we can see Hitler and Nazism all over again. Don’t be surprised if we get passionate in our defense against their bad intentions. That’s not a theat, just a rational promise from a moral man.

    Robert Spencer video: Who is the real target of the Congressional resolution against “hate groups”?
    ……………………….

    Somehow I doubt very much it is those spewing real hate, demanding that unbelievers be oppressed, raped, and slaughtered.

    Robert Spencer happens to be one of the most informed and objective journalist/speaker on the topic of Islam that I know. Nevertheless he is routinely labeled by that group of people who use labels as weapons.

    Those accusers have no concern, much less respect, for the truth. These kinds of laws, designed to cripple dangerous hate groups, are mostly used to silence the truth. The threat to humanity is not how they marginalize or even destroy people who disagree with lies, it has the end result of turning the speaking or writing the truth into a crime.

    It must end or we are doomed. The real haters and hate groups know they have nothing but hate, violence and powerful promoters on their side. The sad reality is that the truth does not always win. It it did Islam would have died before Muhammad did, the writings of Karl Marx would be equated with the writings of someone suffering from hallucinations and the self promoting “equality” hypocrites would be exiled to Fantasy Island. It would be a very large island.

    It’s the holocaust all over again. They attack those who speak the truth and stand up for what is right. Christians are the main target, and others will be on their hit list too, or ‘hate’ list. Only they are the haters doing all the hating. It’s all a very carefully scripted and fashioned tool being formulated, one piece at a time. We are in the cross hairs of their target.

    So many wonder, ‘but why?’ ‘Why did so and so do such and such? It makes no sense!’ But for one who has another view from another angle, the whole picture comes into perfectly clear view, and nothing is a coincidence. All pieces on the chess board have a role to fulfill. It is only a matter of time.

  12. Flavius Claudius Iulianus says

    It is extremely irresponsible for legislators to embed colloquial terms in current usage (in this case, “hate,” “hate speech” and “hate groups”) into their legislation/statues/rulings, without first carefully defining these said terms.

  13. Bindon Blood says

    They are doing the same in Britain. Coincidence?

    The 1st Amendment gives all of us the right to “hate” whomever we choose.

    • katherine says

      Not when Amendment 1b states that Whites, Christians, Jews, Hindus and Buddhists are exceptions.

  15. UNCLE VLADDI says

    The libertine “liberal” criminals’ trope, which attacks us in the news on a daily basis, is:

    “Anyone who doesn’t automatically pity all criminals as fellow victims should be hated!”

    Fear-focused leftopaths don’t want to have to take the risk of accusing criminals of their crimes (which is perfectly acceptable under the Golden Rule, as nobody should be enslaved to the criminals’ whims, schedules, and timetables) but since they also fear being forced to by others, they want to pre-emptively, defensively legislate against any and everyone else from ever being allowed to accuse criminals of their crimes, too!

    So they make their fear into a moral virtue, insisting that not only are all criminals automatically entitled to be pitied as fellow victims, but also that anyone who then refuses to pity criminals and forgive crimes, should be hated as even worse criminals!

    Since they never want to risk defending them selves (&/or innocent others) against real threats, they try to make self-defense illegal for everyone else, too! (“So what? Being a coward isn’t a criminal moral failing, since we’ve forced you all to do it, too, cowards”)!”

    Whee!

    Conservatives, on the other hand, who admit that the only way to solve the problems of crimes and the criminals who commit them, is to become angry and accuse them, stop there. They miss the implicit comcomitant corollary that those who insist there are no real crimes nor criminals, but only equally-innocent fellow victims, and so insist all criminals should be automatically pitied and all crimes forgiven,
    are also criminals who should be hated for their at least attempted crimes of victim-blaming slander and theft of one’s self-defense rights. Having been tricked and brow-beaten all their lives by such delinquent, libertine Christian sentiments, we fail to enforce the other half of our argument, which is why criminals gain ground:

    “Anyone who automatically pities all criminals as fellow victims should be hated!”

    CAPISCE?
