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

Women’s convention features Hamas-linked CAIR’s Zahra Billoo, who claims FBI recruits for ISIS

Oct 29, 2017 10:42 am By Robert Spencer

Along with a rogues gallery of Jew-haters and apologists for Sharia atrocities.

What has happened to the feminist movement, that it has completely sold out its principles and surrendered to Islamic supremacists?

The FBI is a gang of idiots, but it’s unlikely they recruit for ISIS.

“Women’s Convention speakers raise eyebrows over past remarks,” by Lukas Mikelionis, Fox News, October 27, 2017 (thanks to the Geller Report):

The first national Women’s Convention in 40 years opened Friday, featuring speakers who could not condemn female genital mutilation, who called white women “awful”, and who said they are more afraid of Israel supporters than “the mentally ill young people the FBI recruits to join ISIS.”

An offshoot of the Women’s March, a protest that hit the streets following Donald Trump’s inauguration last January and led by radical activist Linda Sarsour, the Women’s Convention in Detroit features prominent progressive activists and Democratic Party politicians.

Among the big-name legislators, Congresswoman Maxine Waters, D-Calif., Senator Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., and Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, D-NY, are set to make appearances. Democratic PAC EMILY’S List President Stephanie Schriock was also scheduled to speak.

However, proclamations of liberation and support for women’s rights have not been followed by some of the convention’s confirmed speakers, who have expressed anti-women views and made borderline anti-Semitic comments.

Seydi Sarr, a self-proclaimed social justice activist in Detroit, once refused to condemn the practice of female genital mutilation (FGM) as “heinous and barbaric” during a discussion about a Michigan doctor who is charged with performing FGM on around 100 minors in a Muslim sect.

“Well, is male circumcision heinous and barbaric?” Sarr asked in response to a FOX2 Detroit journalist’s question about whether she considers FGM performed on girls brutal and backward. “Commonly, (male circumcision) not seen as being heinous and barbaric and people grow commonly in general to accept male circumcision as not being heinous and barbaric,” she said.

In the same interview, she also failed to agree that performing FGM should be a crime in the U.S. “It’s not about thinking shouldn’t it be a crime or not be prosecuted,” she said, adding the issue of whether the practice must remain criminal “is not even being discussed.”…

Zahra Billoo, an executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and another speaker at the convention, voiced seemingly hateful views towards Israel and those supporting it, going as far as to say “I don’t think we can work on civil rights together in the US” if someone supports Israel, which she called “baby killers.”

CAIR has long been accused of being an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood and was named in 2007 along with 300 other organizations as an unindicted co-conspirator in a case on funding extremist group Hamas in Gaza.

“I’m more afraid of racist Zionists who support Apartheid Israel than of the mentally ill young people the FBI recruits to join ISIS,” Billoo, a close friend of Sarsour, wrote on social media, floating a conspiracy that the FBI recruits young people to join the Islamic militants in Syria and Iraq.

Billoo did not respond multiple requests for a comment.

Another confirmed speaker at the Women’s Convention in Detroit is Rosa Clemente – an activist who was Green Party Cynthia McKinney’s running mate during the 2008 U.S. presidential election.

She has followed Billoo’s lead in attacking the Jewish state and made numerous anti-women remarks as well as blaming white women for perpetuating “racism/patriarchy” for staying silent about movie mogul Harvey Weinstein’s sexual harassment allegations.

“Yes white women sure did do that. They are awful,” Clemente wrote after a social media user pointed out that Trump got elected with women’s votes. In another tweet, she said she will not attack non-voters for Clinton’s defeat in the election, adding: “I will blame the secret white women racist vote, not so secret anymore.”

Despite criticizing Trump for misogyny, Clemente also described Hillary Clinton as “anti-feminist, Wall Street-loving, coup-facilitating, Zionist-loving warmonger,” in a tweet dated January 2016.

Recently, she criticized “white women” for attacking the leaders of the Women’s March, saying that the same white women were “silent for decades regarding Weinstein” and perpetuate “racism/patriarchy.”

Clemente responded to a request for a comment, but did not address the comments she made on social media, instead accusing this reporter of “editorializing” and saying that she does not “explain myself in any regard when it comes to Fox News.”…

    This is the a perfect example of cognitive dissonance, the tension which comes from holding two conflicting thoughts in the mind at the same time.

    The deeper structure of this contradiction is that they are spouting the post-modernist, Marxist party line… namely, that one may not criticize the strategic allies of the vanguard of the proletariat until those allies are no longer useful. When these neo-Marxists have achieved power first Islam and then feminism will be abandoned as unnecessary to maintaining control of the Gulag-paradise.

      It is the same variety of cognitive dissonance which allows people to convince themselves that Islam’s most devout adherents have “hijacked the faith”.

      Why is someone who is supposedly “Anti jihad” babbling about Mossad and British security?

        Very suspicious indeed (my words ) Gravenimage . According to dozens of muslims I met personally , and I think it’s a rather common view/conviction among muslims , the British and “the Jews” are to blame for all the evil in the world . ” Anti Jihad ” apparantly holds this view as well ,……………………very suspicious .

    Post-modernism declares that independent thought is oppression. And so, they have a clear path to indoctrinate everyone with neo-Marxism. They teach feminism in the West, but in Muslim countries, it’s fine to be misogynistic as much as you like. No asks if the women in those countries chose to be oppressed. The Muslims are strategic allies of neo-Marxism, even though Islam is a DISTINCT POLITICAL IDEOLOGY in COMPETITION WITH MARXISM.

    This holding two conflicting thoughts in the mind at the same time is called ‘cognitive dissonance’. How will the tension be resolved? Stalin resolved it by betraying the Islamic allies and then shipping large numbers to Siberia as exiles and gulag prisoners.

    The deeper structure of this contradiction is that they are spouting the post-modernist, Marxist party line… namely, that one may not criticize the strategic allies of the vanguard of the proletariat until those allies are no longer useful. When these neo-Marxists have achieved power first Islam and then feminism will be abandoned as unnecessary to maintaining control of the Gulag-paradise.

    A Muslimah feminist has an advantage over a kafir feminist in that former can acquire through judicious marriage a surname that is easy to remember (a kafir feminist must retain her pre-marrriage surname). Mrs. Billoo may have a semi-comical name, but at least it is easy to remember. It is in the great tradition of broadcasters such as Wally Ballou:

    Billoo is the woman who resurrected an old Communist poster that encouraged people (Muslims in her case) to slam the doors on the FBI.

    In Jan 2013, she spoke at UC Irvine in conjunction with Islam Awareness Week and Don a hijab day and I videotaped her presentation. In answer to my question, she admitted that the Islamic penalty for adultery was death. (for both men and women she hastened to add.)

      Better luck next time on a more steady hand and improved audio quality.

      Note that dear Ms. Billoo makes clear–because her “religion” makes clear–that if x, y, and z are complied with—human beings can be stoned to death.

      The Qur’an which CAIR provides in their “EXPLORE THE QURAN” campaign devotes almost all of page 174 to making the same argument for the amputation of a thief’s hand(s).

    Jumping on bandwagon against FBI: they sensed that many people are against the FBI in its current structure and leadership, so they don’t like to be left behind; so why not to accuse FBI with some invented conspiracy of their own? Mohammedans have long tradition of inventing conspiracies, by the way.

    I don’t know – I wouldn’t put it past the FBI to recruit for ISIS, or set up terrorists for a “fakish” sting operation in order to increase FBI funding and show ‘murica what a great job they are doing keeping us “safe.” Funding uber alles is the motto of every government agency.

    Given that the FBI chases fake things like the Trump-Russia collusion, but turns a blind eye to Clinton selling the Russians uranium (and worse), I would be surprised if the FBI were not guilty of far worse than what the most crazy conspiracy theorist could imagine.
