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

LA: 72% of hate crimes target Jews, 12% target Muslims

Oct 21, 2018 11:43 pm By Robert Spencer

No crime targeting innocent people is ever justified. These statistics explode the mainstream narrative about “Islamophobia.”

“Report: 72% of L.A. Religious Hate Crimes Targeted Jews In 2017,” by Aaron Bandler, Jewish Journal, October 18, 2018:

The latest report from the Los Angeles County Commission on Human Relations shows that 72 percent of hate crimes against religion in the county were against Jews in 2017.

Following Jews on the list were Muslims, Catholics and Protestants:

The number of hate crimes targeting Jews increased by 4 percent from 2016, from 71 to 68 percent.

Among all targeted groups, Jews were third at 14 percent, behind the LGBT community (21 percent) and blacks (25 percent)….

    I am aware that Christian churches are vandalized a lot and I have no doubt that vandalization of synagogues and churches will grow as Muslim population grows. Islam has a REQUIRED DOCTRINE of hatred directed against disbelievers called ‘AL WALAA WAL BARAA’.

    Anyone who does not have a MASTERY of the teaching of AL WALAA WAL BARAA doesn’t understand the MOTIVATING FORCE of ISLAM.

    People should urgently learn this important doctrine IN DEPTH.

        Oct 22, 2018 at 8:44 am

        I doubt it. A few studies have already shown that Police are 3 times more likely to shoot a white man. Less repercussions. Shoot or even beat a black and you can go to jail. Even if they fight and hit you during an arrest. One major reason poor areas are turnin into a free fire zone. Cops aren’t goin to drop their donuts and grab their guns and go to jail, or at least be interrogated for several months and risk a charge.

          Thanks Frank, It just is so frustrating to see almost ALL society refuse to recognize simple common sense observations about daily life. I wish it only pertains to observing Islamic behavior but it has effected the majority of Society on how it effects almost very aspect of our life.

          It has degenerated to the point that tellin a simple observable fact is NOW a Revolutionary Act. The Emperor truly has NO clothes on!

      • Frank Anderson says

        Oct 22, 2018 at 8:45 am

        C.H. please take a look at the book Constantine’s Sword. You may or may not decide to read it. Just as our host’s book presents in one readable volume 1400 years of Islamic hatred of everything, Sword makes a fair, whether or not perfect, presentation of 2,000 years of Christian teaching and action concerning Jews.

        It has always been hard for me to understand why some Christians throughout history have made hatred of Jews a central part of their teaching when Jesus, whom we cannot prove and must take on faith, was a Jew. Please see what you think?

        • Indiana Tom says

          Oct 22, 2018 at 8:55 am

          There are non-Christian documents having some subject matter of Jesus in them. New Testament backgrounds many times are easier to prove than some Old Testament backgrounds. Moses is difficult to prove. School of Moses is easier to prove.

        • Frank Anderson says

          Oct 22, 2018 at 9:11 am

          I.T. I don’t think I will ever stop thanking your for pointing out A Simple Koran and its related books by Warner. I am a short way away from completing the third book of his Islamic Trilogy, appreciating his organization with highest praise.

          The first reference from sources other than the Gospels I know about are from Flavius Josephus and should be treated with a measure of care because of fair questions of his sources and motivation. I also consider Burton Mack’s Who Wrote the New Testament as a reason to ask questions.

          The fact that a Jewish mob is supposed to have confessed on behalf of all Jews for all time guilt for the murder of Jesus should really give pause. Since when would anyone have authority to condemn anyone and all future generations for a crime committed by Romans and collaborators. In order to be a priest, High or otherwise, at the time of Jesus, one had to tow the Roman line or not be a priest. There was a theological war between the priests and Rabbis for something like 200 years before Jesus, which the Rabbis ultimately won with the destruction of the Temple. There has not been a single priest, High or otherwise anywhere in Judaism since the destruction of the Temple. There has not been a sacrificial altar anywhere in Judaism for the same time. Please consider Deut, 24:16.

          There are other reasons to question the account of Jesus’ trial and murder that a real Rabbi could explain far better than I. Please ask some questions.

          It has always been hard for me to understand why some Christians throughout history have made hatred of Jews a central part of their teaching
          Simple.
          Because the powers that be can blame the Jews for all the screw ups and just plain malice towards the common people that the authorities caused.
          Read 1984 with Goldstein and The Book during Hate Week for an example.
          In spite of what Jews say, the New Testament is not really very anti Semitic in context towards blond blue eyed Jews who are undoubtedly from the Middle East. I challenge anyone to find anyplace in the New Testament where Jesus or the Apostles directly call for people to run around and kill Jews, as in the Koran.

        • Frank Anderson says

          Oct 22, 2018 at 9:48 am

          I.T. if you will read for example Constantine’s Sword, or most other histories of the Crusades, you will see that the FIRST Crusade never made it to the Holy Land, but instead went through several countries in Europe killing Jews. The teaching of hatred of Jews has a long and bloody history in Christianity, including to my sadness my dear uncle and Father by Choice #2. The source of this teaching is a fair subject for reflection. Also, read about the Passion Play at Oberammergau Germany, which has served to incite Christian hatred of Jews for a long time.

          If Jesus lived, which I take on faith without proof, he was a Jewish man who was killed by Romans, not Jews.

        • Indiana Tom says

          Oct 22, 2018 at 9:25 am

          The fact that a Jewish mob is supposed to have confessed on behalf of all Jews for all time guilt for the murder of Jesus should really give pause.
          You really have to read some of the other New Testament books and Old Testament prophecies to put this into proper perspective. All were lost and everyone has fallen short of the mark. The Apostles were not clubbing Jews.

        • Frank Anderson says

          Oct 22, 2018 at 9:35 am

          I.T. I have read the entire Bible cover to cover more than 5 times, plus studied the “O.T” cover to cover multiple times with a Rabbi in Torah study. The Apostles did not write the New Testament. It was written for almost 300 years by committees and attributed to people with famous names; and selected books were included while others were discarded under Emperor Constantine when he took Christianity for his tool. There is reason to ask questions.

          Wisdom is definitely in the entire Bible; but wherever wisdom is in human hands there is also some measure of error and deception. The challenge is to hear the wisdom; distinguish it from error and deception; and put it to work in our lives. (Rabbi S.F. Nashville TN, March 1992) The truth, wisdom, has nothing to fear from questions. Please ask some.

          ………………………

          Indiana Tom, it was the Romans who killed Jesus.

          And not only have I never seen any proof of this mob, but no mob, no matter how large, can confess any people’s sin for all time.

          How would that work? If some ancestor of yours confessed sins for all time, would you be guilty of them? I would not hold you responsible for them.

          That is not how either Judaism or Christianity or any rational and decent creed works.

    I can’t resist 2 questions:

    1. Since when is any crime a “love” crime?

    2. Are the “statistics” adjusted for population? (such as events “crimes” per 100,000 people)?

    • Indiana Tom says

      Oct 22, 2018 at 9:02 am

      I take Hate Crime concepts and statistics with a grain of salt.
      The Liberals invented the concept of Hate Crime which is Newspeak.
      The Liberals juggle the numbers of the Hate Crime incidents.
      Next we will have Love Crime.
      This is why I have problems with the term Assault Rifle, Military Grade Guns, Nazis being on the Right, Hate Speech, Safe Spaces, Good Censure, and other idiotic Newspeak terms.
      I still remember when gay meant happy.

    They should relate those numbers to the world population : 14 million jews and 72% of hate crimes versus 2000 million muslems and 12% hate crimes. Statistics is much worse than 72%.

  10. shortfattexan says

    Oct 22, 2018 at 8:49 am

    These kinds of statistics are always suspect. Who decides what constitutes a “hate crime”? In practice, any crime against a Muslim is considered a hate crime unless the police find evidence proving that it is not. On the other hand, crimes against Christians are only hate crimes if the police find evidence proving that it is one.

    I am as sure as I can be that the number of anti-Muslim hate crimes is smaller than claimed, and that the number of anti-Christian hate crimes is much larger than claimed.

    Also worth asking – do these statistics allow for the reports of anti-Muslim “hate crimes” that were later proved to be false?

  11. Tom S. says

    Oct 22, 2018 at 9:08 am

    I’d like to point out that if you consider Catholics and Protestants “Christians” (duh) than the hate crimes against Christians exceeds Muslims. There was an agenda behind the pie chart.

    Divided we fall. United are strong. Division will cause more Anti-Semitism, increased BDS actions and more terrorists attacks.

    This is directly related to our lack of unity and support for Israel. It shows our enemies that we are weak.

    The stronger we are, the more we are respected!

    A simple way of showing our strength is by helping The Israel Longhorn Project.

    The stronger Israel and America are the safer it is for all of us.

    To do this we need 12 of you to donate $50,000 each or 600 of you to donate $1000 or 6000 of you to donate $100 or 60,000 of you donates $10.00 each.

    Will crimes against political beliefs ever be looked at as a hate crime? There have been hate crimes committed on cops. How about hate crimes on white people, or does that fall into only white people can be racist so there can’t be any hate crimes on white people?

    Hate crimes on religion, how could the Islamic be 2nd? You don’t see other religions committing terroristic attacks like we see these peaceful muslims do. Just a couple of weeks ago in Minnesota, a group of male Somali muslims, about 100 of them swarmed into Valley Fair, on Law appreciation day there, and attacked the guest there. I understand that this is Cal. we are talking about here, but we also know muslims all stick together, and back each other up, which explains why all we hear after a Islamic attack is them whining about backlash on them and not about the attack itself. Muslims are not 2nd when it comes to religious hate crimes, they can never prove crimes against them after all.

        It’s about hate crimes, and it’s about the Jewish community seeing the highest % of religious hate crimes. If you read all of the article, they add in where the LGBT and blacks stand in hate crimes at the very end. Muslims make up hate crimes against them.

        • gravenimage says

    @Indiana Tom 9:19 post

    Of course ALL the Apostles,the Mother of Christ,St John the Baptist were Jews so it would make little sense to think that the Jews{collectively} were somehow to be blamed: there are inexcusable and shameful episodes in history where the Jews were victimized.The religious authorities of the day,along with Pontius Pilate and the Romans were culpable alright for framing someone they knew to be innocent.

    St John the Baptist{a Jewish prophet} was murdered by Herod{“the Jews considered John to be a prophet”Matthew 14 v 5}with the prompting of the daughter of Herodias:It wasn’t the Jews that killed John the Prophet was it?.It was Herod and the daughter of Herodias

    Consider this comment about the Jews from Jesus Christ:-
    “You samaritans do not really know whom you worship but we Jews know whom we worship
    because it is from the Jews that salvation comes”
    JOHN 4 V 22

    People who claim to be Christian but do bad things to the Jews are condemned by their own Gospel and will be answerable for it when they are judged by Jesus Christ{a Jew}They also fail the 2nd chief Commandment.Sincere Christianity does not sanction anti-semitism.

    In these difficult times for Jews,I suggest a careful reading of the Book of Joel chapter 3:God’s plan for Israel and His promised Justice for the Jews..make no mistake;Israel exists by full permission of the Actual God{allah is NOT the Biblical God.It is imperative to understand that}And the God of Israel,of Moses cannot be defeated.

    Judaism and Christianity have the same 10+2 chief commandment system:If you believe in a God of Justice then you must trust that God will do justice on behalf of the victims of injustice:I believe that the atrocities of the Shoah are not forgotten and God’s Justice will be done.
