She hasn’t won it quite yet. And that’s not the only prize she is up for. Little more than a week after the attack in New Zealand, nearly 30,000 people had signed online petitions calling for New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her response to the Christchurch terror attack. So she surely must be on the short list, too, for the King Faisal International Prize For Services To Islam.
“Ms. Ardern has received widespread acclaim for the compassion she has shown to the victims and their families.” That “compassion” has included her donning of the hijab during every public appearance for at least a week after the Christchurch attack, as she met first with survivors, then with other Muslims when she visited Islamic centers in Christchurch and Wellington, made a televised address to the nation expressing what would become her trademark “We Are One” sentiment, and announced that the government would not only pay for all the funerals, but provide financial assistance to the families of the victims. And the nation mourned with her, or at least all of those sorrowful faces who were caught on camera. She received praise from Muslims worldwide for her performance. Footage of her wearing the hijab, consoling Muslim women, and reciting one of Muhammad’s hadith, went worldwide.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs sent clips of Ardern visiting mosques in a hijab and clips of her speeches translated into Arabic and Turkish to Islamic countries, as a way to head off any possible reprisal attacks from Muslims who might blame New Zealand, and not a lone lunatic, for the attack. Apparently, in the view of the New Zealand government, Muslims are splendid, peace-loving people — “We Are One” — but on the other hand, you never know…
In Turkey, that outreach apparently didn’t work. Al Jazeera reported that crowds gathered in Istanbul mosques with signs reading “Crusader Savagery in New Zealand.”
Erdogan showed blurred video of the Christchurch attack at campaign rallies, while claiming that the Christchurch shooter did not work alone, but collaborated with others who were motivated by hatred of Islam. He warned that Turkey was in the crosshairs of this hatred. That would make sense; after all, Recip Tayyip Erdogan is, in the view of R. T. Erdogan, the foremost Muslim leader.
“They are testing us from 16,500km away, from New Zealand, with the messages they are giving from there. This isn’t an individual act, this is organized,” he said, without elaborating.
He also tweeted a chilling reference to the killing of Anzacs (Australian/New Zealand) soldiers in the Gallipoli campaign in World War I, in which Ottoman forces soundly defeated the Allies. He threatened that anyone going to Turkey with ill intent would also be returned in “caskets like their grandfathers were.” Later, in light of Ardern’s performance, Erdogan backtracked a bit; a spokesman claimed that his views had been misconstrued, and in an article in the Washington Post, Mr Erdogan praised Ms Arden’s “courage, leadership and sincerity” in handling the crisis.
The high point of the Tribute To Islam Week (as it deserves to be called), was the outdoor gathering at which the Prime Minister offered brief remarks and quoted one of Muhammad’s hadith:
According to Muslim faith, the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said:
“The believers in their mutual kindness, compassion, and sympathy are just like one body. When any part of the body suffers, the whole body feels pain,” Ardern said, reciting the hadith. Then she ended: “New Zealand Mourns With You. We Are One.”
Then two minutes of silence were observed, all over the country.
Tens of thousands of people paid their respects around the country with some forming human chains in front of mosques. Others said silent prayers at schools, cafes, and even offices. It has made a deep impression. A sudden outpouring of love and respect, with displays of Hijabs Not Hate!, for wonderful Islam. And that hadith certainly summed up the faith, as Jacinda Ardern understands it, offering “mutual kindness, compassion, and sympathy” for all mankind. Except that…
Except that the hadith she recited means exactly the opposite of what Jacinda Ardern took it to mean. It has nothing to do with all mankind. It does not apply to the Infidels.
No one questioned at the time, nor has anyone questioned since, Jacinda Ardern’s understanding of that hadith. Instead of being a call for universal compassion, because “We Are One,” the hadith refers only to the “believers” — or better, “Believers” — that is, the Muslims. The “mutual kindness, compassion, and sympathy” are to be extended only to other Muslims. The commentary at a Muslim site makes this clear:
“This Hadith has the same purport which is mentioned in the HaD-632. It says that Muslims are akin to a living person. When he feels pain in one of his eyes, for example, his entire body feels it. When he suffers from a headache, he feels its pain throughout his body. As a result the whole body focuses to repair any deficiencies.
“That is how the Muslims should be, we should live as though we are one body and if one of us is in need then the whole community should get behind them to bring them back on their feet.”
Nowhere in the Qur’an or Hadith will Jacinda Ardern find expressions of “kindness, compassion, and sympathy” for non-Muslims. The hadith she chose to read, the meaning of which she did not understand, expresses the uncompromising division of the world between the Believers (Muslims), to whom kindness, compassion, and sympathy are due, and the Unbelievers, who are “the most vile of created beings”(98:6), and should not be taken as friends, “for they are friends only with each other” (5:51). Muslims are commanded to fight against them, to smite at their necks, to strike terror in their hearts. (2:190-194, 4:87, 8:12, 8:60, 9:5, 9:29, 47:4, and many other verses). Once they have subjugated the Unbelievers, they can offer them three options: death, or conversion to Islam, or acceptance of the status of dhimmis, making the Unbelievers subject to a host of onerous conditions, including payment of the Jizyah.
The Hadith are just as disturbing in their expression of hate for the Unbelievers.
Here, Prime Minister, are a few more hadith (from the most reliable (Sahih) collections, those of Bukhari and Muslim), out of many hundreds that express Muhammad’s views toward Unbelievers, that you need to look into:
Muhammad said “A Muslim shall never leave another Muslim helpless in the time of need.” Not “shall never leave another person helpless” but “shall never leave another Muslim helpless.” There is a difference. This hadith is found in both Bukhari and Muslim.
Sahih Bukhari (54:487) – Someone asked, “O Allah’s Apostle This (ordinary) fire would have been sufficient (to torture the unbelievers),” Allah’s Apostle said, “The (Hell) Fire has 69 parts more than the ordinary (worldly) fire, each part is as hot as this (worldly) fire.” Ordinary fire is not hot enough to torture non-Muslims. Therefore the fire in Hell is 69 times hotter.
Sahih Muslim (40:6831) – “Non-Muslims in Hell will be given thick skin so as to prolong their agony” (before they are given fresh skin for a new round of torture – Quran verse 4:56).
Sahih Bukhari (59:727) – Allah’s Apostle [said]... “Allah’s curse be on the Jews and the Christians.” This was said by Muhammad on his deathbed, one of the last things he ever said.
Do you now realize that the hadith you read out meant the opposite of what you assumed? You don’t have to admit it to the public — so very embarrassing — but go ahead and admit it to yourself.
Your image has now been projected onto the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai. It’s hardly surprising. You’ve become a hero to the world’s Muslims, for your over-the-top display — your wearing of the hijab, which was then emulated by tens of thousands of New Zealanders, your relentless insistence that “We Are One,” the Muslim prayer you had broadcast nationwide, the two minutes of silence you insisted be observed by the entire nation, the hadith you failed to comprehend but recited anyway. You are exactly the kind of Unbeliever whom Muslims value most. That King Faisal International Prize for Services to Islam is one you richly deserve, and I hope very much, for reasons of my own, that you win it.
Diane Harvey says
Jacinda Ardern – it really has been embarrassing. And disgusting.
This Ardern person is exactly the archetype the Framers had in mind in crafting restrictions of the then being created government.

“Tens of thousands of people paid their respects around the country with some forming human chains in front of mosques.”
Think about that. The Muslims inside their mosque reciting their Islamic prayers for the deaths of those outside that same mosque, putatively “protecting” that mosque.
This is madness.
James Lincoln says
Diane,
You are correct.
This is the very essence of “pathological altruism”.
owensgate says
What is amazing, and at the same time a ludicrous joke, is the loose “non-wearing” wear of her “hijab”. Some kind of non-respectful “politeness” for the optics. Her hair is not covered; if she wore it this way in Riyadh, the mutaween (“religious police”) would whack her backside. If she is going to kiss up to these heathen, she should at least do it right.
gravenimage says
She was kidnapped, gang raped, and likely threatened with the murder of her loved ones.
To describe this as her “kissing up” to those abusing her is, with all respect, terribly ignorant at best.
Steven RSA says
We are one. Really? I don’t think Muslims feel at one with New Zealand, or New Zealand culture. I have yet to see an obvious Muslim (dressed as one), in the crowd at any televised rugby match from New Zealand. I have yet to see a distinctively garbed Muslim rugby spectator in South Africa. Or Australia. Or England. I have yet to see one in even a French crowd. Or have I missed them all these years? At cricket matches I have seen many an obvious Muslim, because as far as I know the Taliban approves of cricket.

Virtue signaling as well as compassion without wisdom and knowledge never enhance the human condition.

Agreed. This is just vacuous, empty-headed virtue signaling. You can see it written in Jacinda Ardern’s face. This woman has no f*cking idea what’s really going on.

So the Hijabbed Ardern quotes one of the “prophet” muhammed’s hadiths..
The same prophet that said about women..
” ‘isn’t the witness of a woman equal to HALF that of a man’ the women said?
“Yes said{muhammed}This is because of the deficiency of a woman’s mind”
Sahih Bukhari #2658
{most women go to hell says muhammed Sahih Muslim 241}
But given muhammed was an illiterate cross-dressing moron{Sahih bukhari 2442, k7;157}{“..the “prophet” could neither read nor write”},we can safely disagree with his chauvinism and misogyny.
I guess she missed that hadith on mohammed’s belief in the inferiority of women..or the complaints by Yazidi women today who have been forced to wear the Hijab
In the koran k2:282,the Testimony of a woman =HALF that of a man
So perhaps the silly Ardern’s testimony is to be taken as only HALF the value of that of a male P.M of N.Z.Maybe Ardern should make a SECOND speech then perhaps her testimony might be considered equal to a man’s testimony.
Ardern’s muhammed…in reality…
In Sahih Bukhari 3:48:826 “women are deficient in intellect”,and in the koran ,men are the masters of women{k4:34} and the woman has only one thing to offer men{K2:223}
Abu Dawud 2155: women are compared to slaves and camels with regard to the evil in them.
The Uxorious muhammed?
Sahih Muslim 4:1039 Aisha said to muhammed “you have made us women equal to dogs and asses”
THAT is what islam and its koran and “prophet” actually think about women…

This woman is pathetic. She has performed the perfect act of submission to Islam. By wearing the headscarf, effecting a pained look, and seizing guns from non-Muslims, she has paved the way for the handing over of her country to Islam.

If this attack had taken place in London, you can be sure that the British Prime Minister would immediately resort to all the half-baked virtue-signalling and grovelling compliments to Islam currently being expressed by the NZ PM.
It is all symptomatic of the coming capitulation of the West. History will in the future point to these significant straws in the wind occurring today.
CRUSADER says
Another dupe in political office:
https://virginia.gop/abigail-spanberger-terror-high/
7th District Congressional candidate worked at “Terror High,” an Islamic school Sen. Chuck Schumer called “another Madrassa.”
Richmond, VA – Last week, it was revealed that Abigail Spanberger worked at the Islamic Saudi Academy from 2002 to 2003. Spanberger went apoplectic with conspiracy theories to try to bury the lede about her work at the controversial school with extensive links to terrorism and radicalization.
The school in question, Islamic Saudi Academy, in Alexandria, VA ended up closing its doors and reopening with a different name after years of bad press. Among the graduates of the school were Ahmed Omar Abu Ali, convicted of plotting to assassinate President George W. Bush and providing support to al Qaeda. More notable graduates include Mohammed Osman Idris and Mohammed el-Yacoubi, who were “denied entry to Israel in Dec 2001, under suspicion of planning to carry out a suicide martyr attack.”
A release from the United States Committee on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) titled Saudi Arabia: USCIRF Confirms Material Inciting Violence, Intolerance Remains in Textbooks Used at Saudi Government’s Islamic Saudi Academy, provides details of a report the USCIRF conducted on the textbooks used at ISA. Among the passages found in those textbooks included the passages praising jihad (Islamic holy war), martyrdom, and killing those of other faiths. In addition, “The cause of the discord: The Jews conspired against Islam and its people. A sly, wicked person who sinfully and deceitfully professed Islam infiltrated (the Muslims). He was ‘Abd Allah b. Saba” (from the Jews of Yemen).”
The criticism of the school was bipartisan. In a 2005 press release, Senator Chuck Schumer “questioned whether the Islamic Saudi Academy in Alexandria, Virginia, is another example of radical Islamic madrassas funded by and linked to terrorism here and abroad.”
In 2007, former DCCC Chairman Steve Israel (D-NY) and former Virginia Congressman Frank Wolf (R-VA) introduced H.Con. Res. 262, which would have expressed the sense of Congress regarding Saudi Arabia’s policies relating to religious practice and tolerance, including Saudi Arabia’s commitment to revise Saudi textbooks to remove intolerant and violent references. This resolution was a reaction to the 2005 conviction of Ahmed Omar Abu Ali, a former student of the Islamic Saudi Academy.
To top it all off, the school was funded by the Saudi government whose extreme form of Islam, Wahhabism, serves as the law of the land. Under Saudi law, all adult females are required to fully cover their bodies in public, women cannot travel without the permission of a male spouse or relative, and, until two months ago, women were not permitted to drive cars. The Saudi government also allows for the death penalty for homosexual relations in their country, criminalizes the practice of other religions, and uses beheading and stoning as forms of capital punishment.
Abigail Spanberger needs to answer the following questions:
*Was she aware that the school was fully funded by the government of Saudi Arabia? Is she comfortable with the policies Saudi Arabia has on the books related to women’s rights and LGBTQ rights?
*Was she aware of the numerous hate-filled textbooks that were in use at the Islamic Saudi Academy while she taught there?
*Was she aware of the school’s extensive links to multiple terrorists?
*Did she ever report any female students for violating the full body covering dress code at the Academy?
“Either Abigail Spanberger is the least observant CIA operative in history, or she knew about the Islamic Saudi Academy’s link to terrorism and tried to conceal it,” said RPV Executive Director John Findlay. “What kind of person would willingly work at a school that indoctrinates children to hate?”
CRUSADER says
This is how a Republic ends….
‘Most Diverse’ House Freshpeople in US Congress…and counting….
#1. Ilhan Omar: the first person who married her brother – in order to commit immigration fraud – ever to be elected to Congress. Omar is also the first open supporter of female genital mutilation to ever be elected to Congress. Amazing diversity!
#2. Rashida Tlaib: One of the first Muslim Brotherhood-linked and anti-Semitic candidates to be elected to Congress. She also claims to be a “Palestinian.” And she knows how to swear. Tlaib quote: “Impeach the Mother F_ _ _ _ _ _ President” (First words out of her mouth after being sworn in.)
#3. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Let’s just say she’s the first person elected to Congress who lied about being from the Bronx, and thus, made up her life story. She’s also an overt Marxist. (Not even covert!)
#4. Abigail Spanberger: The first substitute teacher from an Islamist school (nicknamed by law enforcers as ‘terror high’) ever to be elected to Congress.
#5. Donna Shalala: Rep. Shalala was HHS Secretary from 1993 to 2001 under Bill Clinton and worked from 2015 to 2017 at the Clinton Foundation, and in 2016 she admitted in an interview that some significant Clinton Foundation donors received “courtesy appointments” in the Clinton State Department. To top it off, apparently, she can’t let go of politics: at 78, she’s the oldest female House freshman in history.
James Lincoln says
Regarding Ms. Ardern per the above article:
Her ““compassion” has included her donning of the hijab during every public appearance for at least a week after the Christchurch attack…”
When she feels that it is the finally right time to remove the hijab, will the local Muslim population then view her as an apostate?
somehistory says
James Lincoln
Time will answer that question. In fact, they may begin to criticize her for taking it off in public and then she can say, ‘Look what all I have done for you,” to which they will say, ‘But what have you done for us lately”?
Because whatever is done, whatever kindness or assistance, is never enough.
somehistory says
This PM reminds me of a film schools in my State used to show to warn kids about staying clean in order to keep sicknesses away.
A man had a little house and lived all alone except for a couple of “close friends.” These “friends” consisted of a fly and a mosquito. The man allowed the mosquito to bite him and allowed the fly to light on his food and crawl around. He also had an out door toilet, to which he traveled barefoot because he didn’t wish to step on any small creatures with hard shoes.
A visitor to this man’s little house saw what was happening, listened to the man’s “reasons” for his behavior….”he didn’t wish to hurt the fly and just wanted to share, or to hurt the mosquito or any small creatures on the ground…and then clued him into what was going to happen because of his ignorance and acting on his ignorance. Illness and perhaps even death awaited if he continued this way.
This ignorant woman…should have learned something about moslims and islam before this attack. Isn’t the PM of a country supposed to know the makeup of the citizens, to have an idea about the cultures, the needs, the general mindset of the different groups? moslims are in “her house.” She should know what they bring with them that will affect her and the other citizens.
To be ignorant, and then take actions based on ignorance, is like a man that would allow a fly to crawl around on his food, or a diseased mosquito to drink his blood, or a parasitic worm to invade his body.

Strong leadership in the West, with a few notable exceptions, is unfortunately in very short supply.

Dhimmi of the Year, 2019. (With sub-categories for Political Leader, Religious Leader, Journalist, Academic, and perhaps for egregious cases of dhimmitude by businesspersons/ companies/ and ordinary individuals that happen to get publicity for grovellingly dhimmi acts and/ or words).
I think we should revisit those Awards. And also the Non-Dhimmi awards: harder to find candidates but I think if we keep our eyes and ears open we can find some – perhaps even an “Encouragement” award to go to politicians or other public figures who show signs of *starting* to get a clue.
And publicise the results on social media.

Ardern may as well convert to Islam if she has not yet done so, and hijab her guilt.

In the Lord of the Rings, Saruman says to Gandalf,
“A new Power is rising. Against it the old allies and policies will not avail us at all. There is no hope left in Elves or dying Numenor. This then is one choice before you, before us. We may join with that Power. … As the Power grows, its proved friends will also grow; and the Wise, such as you and I, may with patience come at last to direct its courses, to control it.” — from “The Council of Elrond”, The Fellowship of the Ring
Seems to me many Western leaders are like Saruman.
But any fool who thinks that they can control the wickedness of islam is deluded.

The Lord of the Rings was in part a parable for fighting Fascism–it was written during WWII and published right afterward–but it also works well as a parable for standing against Islam.
Rob says
The Muslims of Christchurch are already putting in the victimhood narrative. Some injured (on visitors’/work permits to NZ) have stated that they believe they should be given permanent residence as compensation for the attacks. The fact that NZ has a comprehensive no-cost accident and rehabilitation scheme which includes remuneration may have something to do with it.
Also one mosque leader has blamed Mossad. Here we are thinking that these people came here to escape the viciousness and never-ending cycle of violence in their homelands. Immediately want to replicate the narrative here.
BTW the Mayor of London Saddique Khan recently stated that violent terrorist attacks now have to be accepted as part of city life in the West. Betcha life no reporter has asked him if that includes violence against Muslims.
John Miller says
Regarding New Zealand’s public remembrance ceremonies – there is one minute’s silence allocated for fallen NZ soldiers. PM Ardern requires two minutes silence for the Christchurch victims.
martin says
She qualifies for perhaps, virtue signaller, with no actual virtues of the year,, dumbo of the year, most ignorant of what islam actually teaches of the year (so, so many up for that one of course),the muslims will see her as extemely stupid,and or perhaps a coward.
As islam progesses with its agenda in nz, greatly assisted by her and others of her kind, no amount of her fawning over them and serving them will actually gain anything with them….. she will be on the shortlist for beheading…. they see her as the traitor to her own people that she is.
