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

New York City: Muslim Community Patrol working in cars resembling NYPD cars, wearing NYPD uniform lookalikes

Feb 5, 2019 10:28 am By Robert Spencer

The Muslim Community Patrol will doubtless be on the lookout for incidents of “Islamophobia,” that is, anti-Muslim “hate crimes,” which is entirely unnecessary, since the NYPD exists, and such incidents are actually quite rare according to FBI hate crime statistics — much less common than incidents of anti-Semitism.

Will the Muslim Community Patrols also be on the lookout for Muslims who are violating Sharia provisions, such as the prohibition on drinking alcohol? It isn’t inconceivable, although the very question will be denounced as “Islamophobic.” But we have seen Sharia patrols in Austria, Denmark, Sweden, the UK, the Netherlands, and Germany. So why is it inconceivable that they could arise in New York City? It isn’t.

Then what will happen if the MCP apprehends someone for violating Sharia in a way that does not contravene American law?

Also, last month NYPD Sergeant Jessica McRorie stated: “This is not an NYPD vehicle. The NYPD did not outfit or label this vehicle. This group is not officially sanctioned by the NYPD and they are subject to the law.”

If the Muslim Community Patrol is not officially sanctioned by the NYPD, isn’t it subject to laws regarding impersonating a police officer? But would anyone dare risk charges of “Islamophobia” in Bill de Blasio’s New York by pursuing such an inquiry? Not on your life.

“Muslims Form Community Patrol. Some Neighbors Say No, Thanks.,” by Alexandra E. Petri, New York Times, February 3, 2019:

…Mr. Ali is among the first 30 members of the all-volunteer Muslim Community Patrol & Services that is preparing to operate in neighborhoods in Brooklyn, with a goal of growing its fleet of two cars to five by the end of the month and eventually expanding citywide. The group recently held a training led by off-duty officers from the Police Department’s 72nd Precinct.

“It’s like a neighborhood watch but on steroids,” said Noor Rabah, the group’s 31-year-old vice president who lives in Sunset Park.

As word of the new patrol has begun to spread, the backlash has been swift, even among some members of the Muslim community who have criticized the lack of information, and even questioned the need for the patrol.

Like the Shomrim that patrols largely Hasidic neighborhoods in Brooklyn and the Brooklyn Asian Safety Patrol that operates mainly in Sunset Park, the new group — believed to be the first of its kind in the country — hopes to function as extra sets of eyes and ears for the police.

The unarmed civilian patrol will offer translation services — its members are fluent in any of seven languages — explain cultural nuances, report suspicious activity, respond to traffic accidents and even help in searches for the missing. The patrol has the support of Brooklyn’s borough president, Eric L. Adams, and Assistant Chief Brian J. Conroy, the commanding officer of Patrol Borough Brooklyn South.

“More than buildings went down in 9/11. Trust between communities went down,” Mr. Adams said. “We are building it back one brick at a time, and this patrol is one of those bricks.”

Leaders said the group is self-funded and used donations to purchase the cars and navy blue uniforms for its members, many of whom are involved with the Muslim Community Center in Sunset Park.

Volunteers plan to work in shifts, watching over arrival and dismissal times at three Islamic schools in Brooklyn and conducting patrols from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m., mostly near mosques and bus and subway stops in Bay Ridge and Sunset Park, where there are large Muslim populations. It will also link residents to food pantries, mentorship programs and counseling services. It aims to serve anyone who needs help, Mr. Rabah said, not just Muslims.

“Presence is prevention,” Mr. Rabah said. “Just us being around should deter the average criminal mind of doing something to harm another person.”…

    In New York City this “Muslim Community Patrol” with its use of vehicles that resemble real police cars and likewise the Sharia enforcement “guards ‘ who wear uniforms similar in appearance to New York Police Department uniforms shows an intention to counterfeit the real police of New York City.

    This is artificial “authority” of the MCP is not only a fake “authority” this is also a type of Islamic subversion of real ,actual, American law enforcement officers sending message that that “Sharia law is the only right law in should be the law of the lands , even in America ”

    This type of Muslim subversion of genuine US law by Muslim Islamic “police” in NYC is what is known as the Stealth jihad otherwise called the Muslim method of Islamic Gradualism to enact Sharia law in America. In contrast to the way of the violent jihad or also called the militant jihad .This non-violent form of the jihad for Islam is a very sly, insidious, subtle and deceptive way of working for the advancement of Islam.
    This Muslim scheme for achieving the goal of the Islamic agenda is as, many times, as subtly effective as it is demonically clever. Furthermore, this Islamic gradualism, in some ways, is very similar to the instruction printed in the book entitled THE ART OF WAR by Sun Tzu. Which reads “At first, then, exhibit the coyness of a maiden, until the enemy gives you an opening; afterwards emulate the rapidity of a running hare, and it will be too late for the enemy to opposes you”

    ““Just us being around should deter the average criminal mind of doing something to harm another person.”…’
    *****************************************
    We here all know that the average person’s definition of “crime” or “criminal” is much different from the definition moslims have. How many moslim “criminals” will be deterred by seeing moslims acting like cops? What about the moslim attempting to enforce islam’s idea of what is correct on a never moslim? Such as “dress” or food choices? What will be the response of the fake cop? Only a fool will think this is good thing.

      Yes I’ll bet they’re keeping the FGM parlors and sharia punishment cells in the mosque basements open.

    This Islamic gall of the groups who call themselves the “Muslim community patrol ” with all their bogus and pretend “authority” is part of their scheme of jihad of Islamic gradualism for the establishment of Sharia law in America is a reflection the this type of stealth jihad might “catch on” in other America cities which a large Muslim population.

    Therefore ,the message needs to be made known to all the Muslims who live in the United States of America who dislike and maybe even despise the US Constitution and would like to replace it with Sharia law. Those same Muslims instead in trying to force Sharia law on American citizens and their nation those are free to leave and really should leave the USA and then go to live in either Shii ‘ite, Iran or Sunni , Saudi Arabia if they actually feel the Sharia law is the grand, great and wonderful .

    Moreover, all this is a strong reminder of the wise words declared by Theodore Roosevelt in a speech. “There can be no fifty –fifty Americanism in this country. There is room here for only one hundred percent Americanism , only for those who are Americans and nothing else.”

    “hopes to function as extra sets of eyes and ears for the police.” – Yeah, right!

    This is about encroaching dhimma: displays of Muslim power. Trust me, they will not be imposing Shari’a on Muslims. They’ll be imposing Shari’a on *non-Muslims*. We have bitter experience of this in Europe.

    It’s *Islamisation* and it starts with innocuous claims like “hopes to function as extra sets of eyes and ears for the police.” The only extra eyes and ears they’ll be functioning for is jihad. When one of these cars comes speeding down a NY street, how will anyone know it’s not ferrying a terrorist to safety? Perfect cover! What else will these cars be ferrying around NY under perfect cover? By the time anyone realises it’s not an NYPD car, it’ll be gone. By the way, the NYPD seem suspiciously blasé about all this.

    From here on in, with every step that they succeed, it will become harder to get rid of it. The time to get rid of it is NOW. It might already be more difficult than anyone assumes.

    • Keys says

      Feb 5, 2019 at 2:26 pm

      “Perfect cover !” Excellent point.

      Again, I’d like to know who is paying for all this.

      And, do the Mohammadans manning these cars have jobs, or are they being paid/supported by whom ?

      Nothing good in any of this.

    The implementation of Sharia in New York.

    There cannot be two sets of laws in one country. If it is tried, it has the effect of negating the major set of laws that were passed for the entire country.

    So, things are moving along as the leftist/Jihadi alliance planned.

    If so, he should be included in any legal action against it.

      “It’s not “to protect and serve””
      —
      On the contrary. It *is* to “protect and serve” …Islam. One mistake we always make is to give Muslims the benefit of their deliberate ambiguities. We see only what’s most comfortable to see, thereby missing what is meant. If the words come from a Muslim, then *always* look at it from three or four different sides. The meaning that’s most consistent with Islam is the meaning intended for Muslims. The meaning that sounds the nicest is the meaning intended for us.

    How are Muslim storm troopers going to increase COMMUNITY TRUST? They aren’t. They will increase FEAR, DISTRUST and PARANOIA.

    I predict a bunch of FAKED CRIMES will suddenly start to appear … but no one will be able to identify the ‘criminals’. The crime will be disliking Islam.

    This is from New York State Law: Penal law

    Perhaps one of our Jihad Watch attorney readers can see if this applies:

    S 190.26 Criminal impersonation in the first degree.
    A person is guilty of criminal impersonation in the first degree when
    he:
    1. Pretends to be a police officer or a federal law enforcement
    officer as enumerated in section 2.15 of the criminal procedure law, or
    wears or displays without authority, any uniform, badge or other
    insignia or facsimile thereof, by which such police officer or federal
    law enforcement officer is lawfully distinguished or expresses by his or
    her words or actions that he or she is acting with the approval or
    authority of any police department or acting as a federal law
    enforcement officer with the approval of any agency that employs federal
    law enforcement officers as enumerated in section 2.15 of the criminal
    procedure law …

    “Presence is prevention,” Mr. Rabah said. “Just us being around should deter the average criminal mind of doing something to harm another person.”…

    Is this group out to assist ‘any other person’? Or just Muslims. If it is any other person, then why is the group called: Muslim Community Patrol? Wouldn’t ‘Neighborhood Watch’ work just fine?

    Also, why does the group feel the need to invoke Islam? A theology that invokes using its edicts as laws for government. What level of interpretation will be used?

  23. Tom says

    Feb 6, 2019 at 1:03 pm

    If New Yorkers want to subject themselves to Sharia Police then let them do it and find out the hard way just how oppressive Islam really is.

    As for me, this just gives me the impetus to say “Never again will I visit that region of the country”.

    That should be stopped immediately. Otherwise, they will apply sharia step by step while Americans are sleeping and paying to attention for this very dangerous act. They did that in Europe. There are many no go zones in Western Europe where there are all illegal things in those areas. If we do not stop that immediately. We should expect more of such things. The Muslims goal is to islamize USA. They are working for that goal for decades. They have many organizations created by MUSLIMS BROTHERHOOD. They want to islamize the whole world and start the Caliphate from USA. Are we going to jeopardize ourselves silent till we become minority begging our rights as they did in the Middle East. Wake up Americans before it is too late
