L’Oreal’s hijab-wearing Muslim model quits after anti-Semitic tweets exposed

Jan 23, 2018 8:03 am By Robert Spencer

She got caught, so she is stepping down. That’s great, but the larger problem remains: why was a woman who covers her hair being used to sell hair products? This was patent Islamopandering from L’Oreal — a tacit recognition of what the future holds for women in the West. This fiasco with Amena Khan has doubtless taught them nothing: they’ll just hire another hijab-wearing Muslima, and keep their fingers crossed that no Jew-hating tweets from their new model surface.

“Hijabi model and stylist Amena Khan steps down from L’Oreal campaign after controversy over tweets,” barfiCulture, January 22, 2018:

Last week Amena Khan made headlines worldwide for being the first hijabi model hired by a major cosmetics company for a hair-care campaign.

Today she announced she had stepped down.

In a statement posted to Instagram today she wrote:

“I deeply regret the contents of the tweets I made in 2014, and sincerely apologise for the upset and hurt they have caused. Championing diversity is one of my passions, I don’t discriminate against anyone. I have chosen to delete them as they do not represent the message of harmony I stand for.”

“I recently took part in a campaign, which excited me because it celebrated inclusivity. With deep regret I have decided to step down from this campaign because the current conversations surrounding it detract from the positive and inclusive sentiment that I set out to deliver.”

Amena Khan had been chosen to be part the L’Oreal Paris campaign alongside with 15 other stylists and models for a hair campaign. The British stylist is well known on social media, with nearly 400K subscribers on YouTube and nearly 600K followers on Instagram.

Her videos feature a mix of focusing on beauty, make-up, home styling and her own life.

Although she did not specify which tweets caused the controversy, it is likely they related to her criticisms of Israel in July 2014. Some of these tweets were highlighted by critics on Twitter after Amena Khan’s name circulated in the media.

The tweets and screenshots were picked up by far-right media outlets in the U.S., including the Daily Caller….

    Does not matter. This cosmetics company achieved it virtue signalling objective. Gullible lefties will still buy their products because of this, not in spite of it. That was the plan all along.

      I am still trying to wrap my head around a company that sells hair care products to people who believe they have a religious obligation to keep their hair covered. Who exactly is going to see their hair that they need to spend lots of money on hair care products?

      • mortimer says

        Jan 23, 2018 at 12:17 pm

        agree with dhans. Why buy expensive hair products if no one sees the hair? Absurd. This makes L’OREAL look absurd.

        The beaten, bruised, oppressed, veiled women must laughing silently or crying under their black, tent-like, paternalistic garments.

          The ads were not intended to sell more product to muslimas. The ads were intended to sell more product to the left by showing solidarity with them.

        To be fair, muslim women are known to dress in very extravagant and fashionable styles *in the home*.

        It’s only outside of the home that they are packed in the black sack.

        • gravenimage says

          Jan 24, 2018 at 4:27 am

          This is true. In fact, Muslim women are often beaten by their husbands if they fail to dress sexy enough, “let themselves go”, or even just normally age.

      No apology to the Jews here, no self-examination, or re-assessment, or retraction of past positions – just glowing self-praise and promotion tripping off her tongue along the lines of: “Champion of diversity…I don’t discriminate…I stand for message of harmony…excited by message of inclusivity…regret current conversations which detract from my positive and inclusive sentiment.”
      Yes, it’s all good – if you’re a muslim and not a Joo.

        Jan 23, 2018 at 1:06 pm

        That seems to be true….if you get past the cliche talk and taquiyya…you realize hating Jews is inextricably woven into Islam.

        But they will lie to your face and say they are about inclusiveness and diversity….the just aren’t finishing their sentences. They mean diversity among Muslims, and that nonbelievers can go to hell.

        If you see everyone who doesn’t follow the same supremacist ideology as you to be less than human, lying to them doesn’t even produce shame or guilt. They laugh at our gullibility.
        But slowly, people are waking up.

          Jan 24, 2018 at 10:55 pm

          Per Dr. Bill Warner, the head covering is not just a “religious” symbol, IT IS A POLITICAL SYMBOL and it stands for SHARIA COMPLIANCE. The Sharia is compiled from Quran, Sira and Hadith and it is filled with HATE SPEECH and SUBJUGATION toward all kuffar. This is the POLITICAL SIDE OF ISLAM and it affects US and is thus very much OUR business. I have no doubt but that we could make an excellent case for it being BANNED in our lands (and it would surely give these muslimas a better chance at eventual integration). Unfortunately they seem to prefer narcissistic pretensions.

          Dr. Warner describes once being in a market and seeing three women: a nun in full dress; an African woman with head-wrap; and a muslima in a hijab. He said it was ONLY the latter that offended him as he KNOWS it is a symbol of Sharia compliance with its inbuilt call for jihad against the kuffar. During a later trip to a European country he happened to describe these objections to a man who replied “Well?… so it’s a political symbol!” Dr. Warner countered, “HERE’S a political symbol for you…” and he jumped up and made the NAZI SALUTE. The fellow almost panicked and said “YOU CAN’T DO THAT!..it’s ILLEGAL in this country!” Dr. Warner: “WHY?…it’s JUST a political symbol.” There was a long pause and then the fellow replied “You’ve made your point sir, but please NEVER do that again!”

  8. Westman says

    Jan 23, 2018 at 9:45 am

    Definitely a poster-girl for Islam; reflecting the desired image of CAIR and the inward reality of desiring genocide of the Jews. Another sepulcher, beautiful on the outside, rotting inside.

    That phrase she used, “allah willing (insha’allah)”, is the ultimate weasel phrase, just short of, “I didn’t wish ill upon anyone – see, it was left up to allah and allah made the decision.”

    Good luck, L’Oreal, finding a hijab-wearing model that hasn’t been taught to hate Jews from the age of a toddler. Better have a severence clause in the contract for calling for the destruction of the Jews or Israel – or hire no Muslimas. But that would be Islamophobia! What a mess you walked into – how will you wash that out of your hair? How are the L’Oreal sales going in Israel?

  9. Ren says

    Jan 23, 2018 at 9:51 am

    Just had a chat with a muslim yesterday on social media. As usual, zionism is the issue, not the deep muslim hatred of the Jews.

    Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 177
    Narrated Abu Huraira:
    Allah’s Apostle said, “The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. “O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him.”

    • Garfield says

      Jan 23, 2018 at 1:19 pm

      I’m calling bullshit. It is NOT merely a dislike of “Zionism” that Islam teaches it is a race hatred as well as an ideological hatred towards anyone Jewish in belief or heritage.
      Go look at what they broadcast on Palestinian state media. I don’t accept any whitewashing of a supremacist death cult filled with hate, perversion and misogyny.
      Or did you mean the Muslim you chatted with was being crafty and trying to act like it was ONLY Zionism? My bad if that’s what you meant.
      Islamists and leftists continually try to obfuscate and confuse while they gather support and push their agendas, duping people along the way. Bcs what sane, informed person could support Islam? You have to be ignorant about it or actually evil to support Islam.

      • Karen says

        Jan 23, 2018 at 11:43 pm

        Anti-Zionism is the leftist endorsed ploy for publicly expressing Jew-hatred.

        Jan 24, 2018 at 4:32 am

        Garfield, Ren *knows this*. That’s why he cited the Hadith about killing Jews.

        Islam is intrinsically antisemitic. It has nothing to do with Zionism.

    What is relevant to me is that this random Muslim women who just had her 15 minutes of fame on a completely unrelated matter….is now exposed as an antisemite. And she is certainly not unique.Happens quite frequently. Even the only Muslim congressman in the USA, Rep Ellison, has statements in his past indicating an abiding antisemitism.This is a sociological marker defining Muslims, every bit as relevant as FGM, honor crimes, polygamy, and terrorism….and one more reason for the world to acknowledge that Muslims, by virtue of their beliefs, are quite different than non-Muslims.

    Muslim women are women too, and they don’t have to have their hair covered at all times. They, too, want to have nice hair products. While I agree with the points of this article, we should not distract from the fact that the problem of Islam is not the clothing, but the oppression that comes with it.

    The problem is that women are mistreated, oppressed, beaten, forced to marry, etc.

      2/ Who wants to support via their taxes those whose clothing is unlikely to result in “suitable” job offerings?
      3/ Who wants to accept as a day-in day-out co-citizen those who advertise their supremacist identity and all the other inhumane, subjugating things it represents?

Woman are mistreated ,but brain washed in the way of Islam and many would offer up their children,s lives gladly as suicide bombers for their mad moon god .A sad waste of human lives and souls facing damnation without these woman enables this system would collapse ,without Imans preaching hate, and they all live are the threat of murder for leaving this soul smothering cult.

    If the purpose of the hijab is to avoid causing lustful thoughts in men, then what is the purpose of wearing lipstick, and eyeliner? The makeup on the face seems to do the exact opposite of what the hijab over the hair is supposed to do. To be consistent a hijab-wearing woman should either wear no makeup on her face or, if she does, wear a veil and dark glasses to hide her enhanced physical beauty from men. Wearing both a hijab and cosmetics makes no sense and advertising beauty products for Muslim women is totally absurd ….. but then, so is Islam.

    • Jack Diamond says

      Jan 23, 2018 at 12:33 pm

      Hijab means full body covering, which is clear from the texts and the ulema. Hair covering is just the introduction of something “harmless” (a little shari’a won’t hurt you) with the burqa etc. soon to follow as the Muslim colony grows, until even that becomes “normal” among the kaffirs.

      • CogitoErgoSum says

        Jan 23, 2018 at 1:30 pm

      Some form of taqiyya (or “whichever” gimmick it is in their bag of tricks) – useful in conveying to the Kafir that you’re really rather modern and interesting. The Kafir are enthralled by displays of “pretty things” and this will serve as a familiar plaything for them so the muslim invasion can continue without too many rude interruptions

      Meanwhile muslimas hold tightly to their mental and physical garbage bags and support their herders.

      Have you ever read the vile contents of the Koran, lebel? For 1400 years, Muslims have been taught to hate anyone who wasn’t Muslim, and ESPECIALLY Jews. Every day, Muslims commit atrocities. Women and children raped, concerts bombed, shoppers mown down, people stabbed, people attacked with acid, buildings torched, cars burned. 32,423 deadly terror attacks since 9/11. And you wonder why Muslims are ‘constantly insulted on JW’? Get a grip, lebel. Face facts. It is the vile, sick, disgusting ‘religion’ of Islam which is the problem

      • Lebel says

          Jan 23, 2018 at 6:27 pm

          No establishment that I consider myself or any other Christian I know condones the evil actions that are condoned in the Qur’an/Mosque/Islam. The problem lies with this. If, one of the organizations (like church or another service organization) taught what Islam teaches, then I would be “responsible” so far as I do not revoke my membership and no longer associate myself with the group.
          This doesn’t happen with Muslims… in fact…

          take the Apostacy Law:
          Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the most renowned
          and prominent Muslim cleric in the world, has stated:
          “The Muslim jurists are unanimous that apostates
          must be punished, yet they differ as to determining
          the kind of punishment to be inflicted upon them.
          The majority of them, including the four main schools
          of jurisprudence (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi’i, and Hanbali)
          as well as the other four schools of jurisprudence
          (the four Shiite schools of Az-Zaidiyyah, Al-Ithna-‘ashriyyah,
          Al-Ja’fariyyah, and Az-Zaheriyyah) agree that apostates must be executed.”

          Lebel…too many of your fellow muslims think they can COMPARTMENTALIZE their creed according to their personal fantasies or practice. But your creed is responsible for what affects many innocent people.

          Other faiths weigh evidence etc. and submit to greater growth and wisdom. Their adherents would leave if they found this not to be the case (and its much easier to do so since their LIVES are not threatened).

          Your ‘religion’ needs to be abandoned. It is a house of sand.

        • Jack Diamond says

          Jan 24, 2018 at 5:31 pm

          You know who believes in collective responsibility and collective punishment? Muslims.
          Not us.

          That’s why when Pope Benedict makes a speech that enrages Muslims, a Catholic nun in Somalia is murdered for it. When Danish cartoons (embellished with worse by mendacious imams) enrage Muslims to Friday rampages, they take it out on whatever kaffir is near to them. A Catholic priest murdered in Turkey by a Muslim upset over the cartoons. A Danish lawyer in Moscow murdered by a Muslim from the Caucuses, over the cartoons. In Nigeria, Muslim mobs attack Christian homes and shops and loot and burn them down, and kill people, over Danish cartoons.

          In Pakistan, mobs are stirred up over fictitious rumors of a desecrated Qur’an, and Christian communities are attacked, looted, and destroyed in collective punishment. If a Coptic Christian upsets the Muslims in Egypt, all Copts are fair game. A mob of 3,000 Muslims attack a Coptic community, loot and pillage, because of rumors about a Christian having “intimate photos” on his phone of a Muslim woman. Such anecdotes are endless. Collective punishment is a Muslim m.o.

          Collective responsibility was part of the condition of dhimmitude for non-Muslims living under Islamic rule. Mark Durie wrote in ‘The Third Way’: “even a breach by a single individual dhimmi could result in jihad against the whole community…the Moroccan (jurist) al-Maghili taught ‘the fact the one individual (or one group) among them has broken the statute is enough to invalidate it for all of them.”

          Muslims regard kaffirs as collectively responsible and guilty. They are not innocent. Jews & Christians are collectively condemned. How are we to respond to that?

          From Islam Q&A: “Islamic faith is based on the separation of Muslim and kafir and that the kafir is the enemy of Allah forever until he embraces Islam discarding his kufar, Allah has forbidden the believers from pleading any allegiance to the kuffar or showing them any affection even if they were their fathers, brothers, children, kinsmen or their spouses (sura 58:22).

          “One of the basic principles of belief in Islam is that we must believe that every Jew, Christian, or other person who does not enter Islam is a kafir…and regarded as enemies of Allah, His Messenger, and the believers, and that they are the people of Hell.”
          –Sheikh Muhammed Salih Al-Munajjid

FGM is nasty. You bet a mother who hands over her daughter to have her clitoris mangled off should be called evil and the ideology behind it called evil!
      If Islam was nice and produced peaceful prosperous societies no one would insult it. But look at what Islam does to people!

      Do not doubt for a moment that any non-Muslim who criticizes Israel on the Internet would be prosecuted by law. However Muslims can say atrocities. The same thing happens with the sermons, if some retrograde priest says something against homosexuality … that church would have scratches the next day …and well done. . the imams say atrocities daily and nobody does anything … we have accepted that “they are Muslims things “when the law should be the same for everyone. The vast majority of Islamic speakers should be in jail for hate crimes.

        Have to say that i very much doubt that.

        There’s heaps (and heaps) of it around. Just like there is other offensive stuff on the internet.

      Jan 23, 2018 at 4:40 pm

      The points that lebel raises are interesting.

      “Why are her tweets considered anti-semitic?”

      Well, she expressed support for the destruction of the only Jewish state in existence. In the context of islam, which is not anti-zionist, but is rampantly anti-Jew, one would think it is obvious.

      ” here on jihadwatch Muslims are constantly insulted and called collectively evil and….oh wait, its only bad when it involves jewish people.”

      Sometimes, but again, the majority of the attacks are aimed at Islam itself.

      Islam celebrates the killing of Jews you know. Jews aren’t out to kill all the Muslims.

      “Sorry I forgot that we must adhere to this natural double standard here”

      What double standard? If Jews were following a religion which commanded the death of all muslims, you would have a point.

      • Lebel says

        Jan 23, 2018 at 6:24 pm

        Saying Israel is an illegal state is calling for its destruction? I guess it is but then this is from the site that applauded when Harper said that criticism of Israel is anti-semitism.

        • Chand says

          Jan 24, 2018 at 6:24 am

          She posted these tweets during the 2014 Gaza war which turned out to be especially brutal to the Palestinian civilians. She, like many others, must have been very disturbed to see the massive bombings by Israeli jets and artillery, the schools mistakenly bombed and the images of wounded children and such. Palestinians paid a heavy price for the actions of Hamas or whoever when the three Israeli teens were murdered.
          In this asymmetrical war, more than two thousand Palestinians died while seventy three Israelis perished.
          She has been graceful enough to quit now after tweeting them four years ago, which she must have done out of passion and compassion for the suffering Palestinians.

          Israel’s heavy handedness during that war was internationally condemned and she wasn’t the only one.

        • Chand says

          Jan 24, 2018 at 6:31 am

          Criticizing some policies of Israel is not necessarily Antisemitism.

        • LeftisruiningCanada says

          Jan 24, 2018 at 1:05 pm

          Of course Israel was condemned ‘internationally’, since it’s the only Jewish state in the world and many would rather they didn’t exist.

          Everyone would prefer that nobody ever was killed on either side, but one side won’t stop constantly attacking the other, and won’t even stop declaring their unwavering intention to bring about the other’s complete destruction.

          Israel is way more permissive and restrained than any other country would be in a similar situation, but because it’s Israel it’s never good enough unless they would all agree to stop breathing.

          And i never said that any criticism of Israeli policy was anti-semitism.

          Jan 25, 2018 at 1:50 am

      For those who don’t get it, Logic&Reason is have some fun at the expense of Muhammad’s assertion that a woman’s testimony in court is to be treated by law as worth half that of a man’s testimony, and a female’s inheritance from parents is half that of a male’s.

      The testimony devaluation was bound up with Muhammad’s devaluation of their intelligence:

      Muhammad says the minds of women are deficient
      In Sahih al-Bukhari, the most canonical hadith collection:

      Volume 3, Book 48, Number 826:
      https://muflihun.com/bukhari/48/826

      Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri [one of the younger Companions of Muhammad]:

      The Prophet said, “Isn’t the witness of a woman equal to half of that of a man?” The women said, “Yes.” He said, “This is because of the deficiency of a woman’s mind.”

    ; Although I applaud “L’Oréal Group’ for firing that woman, I have to wonder about the sanity of any company selling hair-care products via concealing the hair, as the equivalent of selling face make-up using a model with their face concealed. What would Don Draper say about that advertizing strategy? It’s not the real thing. Here is a television ad, from a few years ago, featuring “Sunsilk” hair care products, using the same brain-dead stupidity of selling hair-care products using a model with concealed hair. https://youtu.be/excxIZ4wUvg

    So the sister is having a dialogue with others on her tweet, she didn’t call for terrorism to kill innocent civilians. She posed the issue as to whether Israel is above International law, her last tweet talks about their retribution or the defeat of such an oppressive system. Why is this an issue? Where is her freedom of speech?

    • Carol (the 1st) says

      Jan 24, 2018 at 3:42 pm

      Muslim2018…I personally concluded that her first tweet might get a pass as her right to an opinion however faulty, but the next two go into “child murderer” accusations which is pretty overboard when you end up representing a COMPANY that is dealing with the public at large. Sometimes you can say what you like but need to realize that there may be a valid price to pay. Therefore no whining.

    • LeftisruiningCanada says

      Jan 24, 2018 at 8:11 pm

      There’s freedom of speech all over this story.

      1: Woman says what she thinks a few years ago with nobody stopping her saying it
      2: These comments come to light because same woman is in an ad campaign, people don’t really like it and complain to the company making the ad
      3: Woman issues apology and leaves ad campaign.

      What we are seeing is the operation of free market principles working. The company would rather keep making money from customers than further alienate them by looking to support her statements.

      Nowhere was there any suppression of free speech. Government was not involved. Nobodies rights were infringed. All we saw was the end of a business deal between a single person and a large company.

      You might not like it that people complain, since i’m sure you agree with what she said. But, Europe is still Europe for now, and not, say, Pakistan, where you would probably get far worse treatment if you weren’t saying bad things about Israel.

      The dishonest “Muslim2018” wrote:

      …………………………….

      The “defeat of such an oppressive system” means the destruction of Isreal and genocide of the Jews. That’s what both Fatah and Hamas call for.

      By the way, that “oppressive system” in Israel is democracy with equal rights for all. Only Muslims characterize this as “oppressive”. Pious Muslims consider any system besides Shari’ah, where they can oppress and brutalize Infidels–to be “oppressive”.

      Certainly, any defense against Jihad terror is considered “oppressive”.

      More:

      Why is this an issue? Where is her freedom of speech?
      …………………………….

      This is very common with Muslims–the claim that if anyone disagrees with someone’s views that they are–somehow–violating their freedom of speech.

      But disagreeing with someone’s views and saying is *itself* freedom of speech. No one has the right to demand that no one will disagree with them.

      No surprise that so many Muslims either do not understand freedom of speech, or else pretend that they do not understand it.
