As I predicted in this article, Muslims are enraged at New York Governor Andrew Cuomo for using the word “jihad” to describe President Trump’s immigration policies. Sadaf Mehdi of the Muslim Democratic Club of New York fumed: “Governor Cuomo’s comparison of it to a ‘jihad’ only perpetuates the Islamophobic trope that acts of violence are somehow a Muslim invention.”
This is a typical straw man. I’ve never heard anyone ever claim that “acts of violence are somehow a Muslim invention.” Mehdi is trying to deflect attention away from Islam’s 1,400-year history of violence perpetrated under the name “jihad,” as I detail in my book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS. Cuomo’s unthinking use of jihad as a negative term indicates that underneath the Leftist propaganda he usually shovels out, he has some awareness of this history. That’s Sadaf Mehdi and others like him are trying to make sure that as few Americans as possible have today. Confound them: preorder your copy of The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS today.
“The irony — Muslims angry over New York Governor’s use of ‘jihad’ in describing Trump policy,” The Circumvent, July 27, 2018:
The Left doesn’t see it: In describing conservative policies as a jihad that must be fought, they borrow a word entrenched in blood from a religion in which they see only peace….
During a press brief in Puerto Rico Monday, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) compared the current administration’s efforts to curb illegal immigration to Islamic Jihad.
“They are on a Jihad to deport as many people as they can who they believe are not in the United States legally,” Cuomo said….
On Tuesday, the Muslim Democratic Club of New York’s board secretary, Sadaf Mehdi issued a statement requesting an apology from Cuomo for his misuse of the word jihad.
“Trump’s anti-immigrant agenda is rooted in white nationalism, racism, and xenophobia. Governor Cuomo’s comparison of it to a ‘jihad’ only perpetuates the Islamophobic trope that acts of violence are somehow a Muslim invention,” the statement said….

These “invaders” in this video, should be rounded up placed in pig pens with pigs with 40 ft. High fence around them and added to daily as the need arises.
Giacomo Latta says
These individuals should be invading eastern Libya. The Muslims there would have more use for them than Spaniards.

Meanwhile, MUSLIMS DO NOTHING TO DERADICALIZE THEIR YOUNG PEOPLE.
RADICAL ISLAM and JIHADISM are taught in ALMOST EVERY MOSQUE.
J D S says
Of course mosques spread jihadism ….They teach from the Koran and hadath don’t they? How else could they teach and not be islamist?????
mortimer says
Cuomo used the word ‘JIHAD’ in its correct sense as an offensive war to establish religious supremacism.
Muslims object that a dirty KAFIR is CORRECTLY EXPOSING the word ‘JIHAD’ and using it properly, thus LETTING THE CAT OUT OF THE BAG.
Muslims who criticize the CORRECT USED of the word ‘jihad’ are conducting VERBAL JIHAD … that is, they are HIDING and DISSEMBLING about the MEANING, MOTIVE and METHODS of jihad.
ALL Muslims conduct VERBAL JIHAD or they have abandoned the practice of Islam.
Wellington says
Good call by Spencer. Cuomo will remain clueless, though massive ignorance on his part, I predict, will not stop him from making an ad nauseam number of apologies to Muzzies and their dhimmi supporters for the grave crime of insulting Islam.
Cuomo in microcosm is THE PROBLEM exemplified. Bank on it.
PRCS says
“making an ad nauseam number of apologies to Muzzies and their dhimmi supporters for the grave crime of insulting Islam”
My first thought!
Wonder what’s taking him so long.

Muslims enraged at Cuomo for using word “jihad” in way that “perpetuates” Islamophobia
……………….
Well, this was predictable. More proof that no amount of dhimmitude is *ever* enough for Muslims, since Cuomo was trying to castigate Trump for daring to try to protect us against Jihad.

Gov Cuomo can always send this little ditty to those criticizing him:

How can so many progressuve liberals be so uninformed?? I guess liberalism is truly a mental disease.
And why was Gov Cuomo in Puerto Rico dissing a sitting US president?? How shameful !
And playing the Islam card is getting as old as the race card!! How many attacks by Islamic Muslims have happened this past month worldwide, where Christians and priests and innocent people were brutally killed around the world?? The truth will set you free!! The liberal democrats should try it!

Haven’t they passionately desired that we fear them for a millennium and a half? Kor’an 3:150, 48:28, 8:12 & many other verses.
Lydia Church says
It was the only word in the arsenal because it fit his intended meaning.
We all know jihad is an act of bloody massacre.
That was what he was trying to say.
But the only thing we can base Trump’s motives on against illegal immigration…..
is called….
THE LAW!
Look into it sometime before hurling insults at others falsely!
And see my comment in the last section about how there is no Biblical basis for
a wide open border door policy to allow in a broken dam water’s amount of illegal
‘refugees,’ ‘migrants,’ ‘foreigners,’ ‘strangers,’ ‘sojourners,’ ‘immigrants,’ ‘aliens,’ or ‘asylum seekers.’
It’s about an article from WND that refutes the BS by all the figure heads on that issue.

Lydia Church says
This part is to the likes of Cuomo, just FYI:
“Look into it sometime before hurling insults at others falsely!”
Different statements apply to different groups of people obviously…

SHUALI says
These Muslims and those that pander to them are predictable and quite pathetic.
Fear seems to drive their minds and appeasement is their ticket. It never has worked and never will.
It will not be long before NY City will compete with Chicago, LA or Baltimore for the shit hole capital of the US. Just compare Victor Orban’s attitude toward protecting Hungary with Cuomo’s toward protecting the citizens he is responsible for.

I don’t think Cuomo is even trying to protect anyone against Jihad terror.

and i don’t think he would appreciate those who would fight against the allah god (unknowable; the best of all deceivers) for fear of SUBMISSION … SUBJUGATION … ABASEMENT … ENSLAVEMENT.
Westman says
“Fight in the way of Allah” = Jihad.
“So let those fight in the cause of Allah who sell the life of this world for the Hereafter. And he who fights in the cause of Allah and is killed or achieves victory – We will bestow upon him a great reward.” (Q 4:74)
“Those who believe fight in the cause of Allah , and those who disbelieve fight in the cause of Taghut. So fight against the allies of Satan. Indeed, the plot of Satan has ever been weak.” (Q 4:76)
And what is the cause of Allah? To make everyone a believing Muslim, a dhimmi, or deceased.
No amount of carnival barking by Muslim leaders can undo the violent, aggressive nature of the Quran. Simply reading the passages that describe Allah’s sadistic torture for the unbeliever would make any normal person reject Islam, outright.
In fact, more resistance to Islam would likely be generated by signage display and text of Allah’s tortures than emphasizing jihad because it quickly puts Allah’s character in unredeemable perspective. Muhammad was a sadistic thug, and he invented a god to match.
FYI says
“I am made victorious through TERROR”
bukhari 4:52:220
Does the “prophet” muhammed use the word terror in a way that perpetuates “islamophobia”?
Should muslims not be angry at their “prophet” for giving the game away about islam NOT being a “religion of peace”?
Would muhammed have to be executed for himself insulting islam when he admits in al-tabari 6;111 to making it all up?
“I have fabricated things AGAINST God and have imputed to him things he has not said”
muslims hate al tabari 6:111 and bukhari 4:52;220 !
And they use every type of ‘bearing false witness’ trick{Taqqiya,kitman etc} to deny it.
PRCS says
IMO, if Cuomo believes jihad is a perversion of the ROP’s teachings, he may have concluded that attempts to stop illegal entry into our nation/visa overstays pervert our own laws.

somehistory says
They are afraid a glimmer of truth might get out, so even the use of a word….that they claim means “inner struggle,’…will enlighten the public to the real meaning and so they become enraged and “demand apologies.”
No one is allowed to even accidentally expose the truth about islam and it’s war upon humanity.
If he had a brain, he would be able to see just why they need and demand an apology, and why it won’t be enough. They will demand groveling, and even that won’t be enough.

All I can say is, that the constant presence and talk of the muslums and islum make me Islamnausea. Can’t we get rid of the scum – preferably a one-way ticket to Shitistan?

Hahaa the fool thought he could appease the crocodiles so that he can be eaten last, But then the Jihadist crocodiles found his appeasing attitude the very reason for eating the idiot first itself. Classic!! Either way you are screwed. This guy badly needs Roberts latest book to educate himself.

Cuomo: one of Islam’s less useful idiots but not for a lack of trying to be Number One. (Or a number two.)
Rosie Barnes says
Remember the world before multiculturalism, political correctness, “diversity” and the dark shadows of racism and Islamophobia? Countries like Australia once had very strict immigration policies: only those who had skills it needed, had something to contribute or could support themselves financially were even considered. The vast majority from the world’s two most violent and backward cultures, black African and Muslim, didn’t have the ghost of a chance. It didn’t want them and it was not considered racist or Islamophobic (the word didn’t even exist) to openly says so.
Now? Thanks to that lethal triple cocktail of PC/multikulti/diversity Australia is no different from any other Western country and is reaping the “reward” for its policies. As for countries like Britain, Sweden and Britain, still clinging to the fantasy of multiculturalism, the future looks very bleak indeed.
It’s one thing trying to contain the chaos and violence and keep would-be “migrants” in their their own countries, but inviting and welcoming them in to yours is social, cultural, and economic suicide.
Linde Barrera says
Hi all, Love the comments here. I am glad Gov. Cuomo uttered the word “jihad” but not in the context it should have been used. His thinking and wording spout what many Lefty-Libtards have on their minds. Not much depth, in my opinion.
Steve Brown says
The irony, as I see it, is that Cuomo didn’t use jihad to indicate a violent act. Deportation of illegal immigrants is not in itself a violent act. He used jihad to mean a political struggle in the same way Linda sarsour uses it.

A Parable
I went to the doctor the other day and he told me I had malignant cancer, and that my cancer was a deadly disease, and that we would have to operate to remove the cancer, because it would kill me if I let it alone.
Naturally I was shocked and dismayed that My Own Doctor would engage in such Cancerphobic hate speech.
I mean clearly I’d had cancer for several years, and it had NEVER killed me before, and certainly I could COEXIST with my cancer. And sure it caused me to have hemorrhages in my brain and liver and was shutting down my eternal organs, but WHAT DID I EXPECT? The problem was that my body was “OTHERIZING” my cancer. My body was being too confrontational with Cancer, and wouldn’t politely move over fast enough and give Cancer a place to grow and thrive. I immediately asked what I could do to get rid of my intolerant antibodies and white corpuscles which were just poking the poor cancer cells in the eye.
And do you know what my doctor said to me? He told me that my body fighting against poor refugee cancer cells was a GOOD THING. I swear he said that. He told me that it was a good thing that my body was fighting the cancer that was growing inside of it. I was disturbed and greatly disappointed to realize that my doctor was an active Cancerphobe.
We need to fight this intolerance, we need to spread awareness that CANCER is being mistreated and slandered as dangerous. The international community needs to open its hearts and bodies to the BEAUTY and the Sublime Enlightened reality that is CANCER. The solution is for us to love our cancer and ignore the alleged side effects. Cancer adds diversity to our health. And remember diversity is our strength. Don’t forget that the cancer god has told the cancer cells that it is his will that our bodies belongs to them, and who are we to resist?
Cancer is not dangerous, it is IN DANGER from Cancerphobes worldwide. [Or will be if leaders around the world ever understand the cancerphobes and see why cancer must be eradicated.- editor]
What are you saying, editor? Are you seriously suggesting that OTHER PEOPLE be exempt from the wonderful benefits of having Cancer in their bodies? Certainly not!
No we must make a law that Cancer MUST be allowed to grow in people’s bodies, and if there is no cancer present, they must have Cancer forcibly transplanted into their bodies to live and thrive among the healthy, er, the Native tissue. Cancer must be encouraged to immigrate to bodies all over the world.
We must also make it illegal for cancer to be removed under any circumstances. We’ve got to not only prevent the removal, but also prevent the opposition to cancer. People must not be allowed to even talk about the cancer that we forced them to have. We certainly can’t have people spreading hateful ideas about Cancer. And if anyone speaks out, especially if they talk to the public or if anyone starts to listen, we’ll just arrest them for disturbing the peace and put them in a prison filled with cancer. That’ll take care of that trouble maker, and set an example that it is impermissible to criticize or oppose cancer.
