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

Ilhan Omar claims hate crimes up 226% after Trump rallies, Barr says no evidence hate crimes increased under Trump

Aug 9, 2019 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“War is deceit,” said Muhammad (Bukhari 4.52.268).

“Anti-Semite Ilhan Omar Says Hate Crimes Increase 226% After Trump Holds a Rally — But AG Bill Barr Says “No Evidence” Hate Crimes Increased Under Trump,” by Jim Hoft, Gateway Pundit, August 8, 2019:

Radical anti-Semite and Democrat Ilhan Omar tweeted out on Wednesday that counties that hold Trump rallies see a 226% increase in hate crimes.

She added that assaults increase when cities hold Trump rallies.

Counties that hosted a 2016 Trump rally saw a 226% increase in hate crimes.

Assaults increase when cities host Trump rallies.

Your rhetoric is directly and indirectly inciting hate, Mr. President. https://t.co/axJDI3uOJU

— Rep. Ilhan Omar (@Ilhan) August 7, 2019

Of course, this is a crock.

She took her data from a very controversial report by the far left Washignton [sic] Post.

Although there is proof that Antifa attacks tend to increase whenever Trump supporters gather for events.

And Attorney General Bill Barr told Congress in April that he has seen no evidence that hate crimes are up since 2013 when Obama was president.

      What’s missing here??? Seems yo me that the ONLY hate out there is that the left, democrats are the ones who are full of hate….hate for President Trump, his supporters and the Republicans in general..Dems like REp. Omar are the ones pushing hate…The title of “Representative sure fits her she represents just how low the Democrats have sunk but she’s not the only one to blame….those who put her in office have to accept the brunt of blame…..

    Does dating a man while still married to number 1 or 2? husband is OK? Cheating on ones spouse is acceptable while vilifying someone because of their ethnicity is not encouraging violence.

    • Kepha says

      Aug 10, 2019 at 8:28 am

      It may be cheating one’s spouse to you and me, but to a political culture that thinks two men can “marry” each other, or that X and Y chromosomes have nothing to do with whether your are “really” male or female, Ilhan Omar is merely following some kind of lifestyle choice.

      And this is the key to the way rhetoric is used by the party that has nothing but rhetoric. Truth becomes completely relative; and the only thing that counts is the immediate distribution of power. Thus Obama bears no responsibility for Sandy Hook, the Florida nightclub shooting, and other horrors that happened during his [mal-]administration, but Trump is somehow responsible for the Dayton and El Paso shootings. To the media-entertaintment-academia-governmental complex, there is no longer any such thing as truth.

    When out of facts and reason, just make things up.

    Kinda’ here reminds me of a guy named Mohammed who purportedly lived in the late sixth and early seventh centuries.

          Don’t be stupid, Mohammed was invented to rally the barbarism inherent in what became Islam. He is no more a robin hood figure than the moon is made of cheese

    • mortimer says

      Aug 10, 2019 at 1:34 pm

      Agree with Wellington. Muslims traditionally make up their own facts to suit the situation. Many have been killed by Muslim vigilantes on the basis of rumor and hearsay. In Muslim countries, rumors are bountiful, because people don’t prefer to read anything, but hear it. Even in the West, Muslims make up their minds largely on the basis of hearsay. Most of Islam is hearsay, from the Koran to the hadiths and Sira. So-and-so heard from so-and-so who heard from so-and-so who heard from so-and-so.

      This is a very backward, pre-Enlightenment, pre-rational and pre-scientific culture. Those who lived in Muslim countries are familiar with this culture that dismisses inconvenient facts and fuels itself on prejudice and emotion.

      • David says

        Aug 10, 2019 at 5:56 pm

        Mortimer, the Hadith should be renamed “Chinese Whispers” The Koran was collated at least a hundred years after Muhammad died.

    I wish you guys would check on this stuff. It’s hard to defend you when you don’t check.
    A recent study by scholars from the University of North Texas has shown that “counties that had hosted a 2016 Trump campaign rally saw a 226 percent increase in reported hate crimes over comparable counties that did not host such a rally.”

    • Wellington says

      Aug 9, 2019 at 5:15 pm

      Provide the study. Also, how do you define hate crimes? How does this supposed study?

      Moreover, just a few so-called hate crimes anywhere could raise the statistics enormously. Moreover again, the entire hate crime nonsense is bogus for this reason (and I write this as a lawyer): No crime should ever be punished on the basis of motive but rather on the act. For example, if two thugs kill a guy for his money and in another incident two thugs kill a guy because he is gay, why in Hell should the former thugs receive a lesser punishment than the latter? Any legal system that does so is engaging in social engineering which invariably and inevitably leads to in-equal application of the law. Yes, punish the act and NEVER the motive.

      Meanwhile, per Mass Shooting Tracker, regularly relied upon by the tendentious MSM, 51% of mass shootings in 2019 have been done by blacks and not white males. Or didn’t you know this?

      Take your Trump hatred (and skewered facts) and stick it where the sun never shines.

      • David says

        Aug 9, 2019 at 5:55 pm

        So on a purely philosophical level regarding punishment of the act (vice motive), help me out here…

        An individual commits homicide through well thought-out, pre-determined, pre-meditated and precisely executed plan and is typically charged with 1st degree homicide. Contrasted with a scenario in which an individual commits homicide when upon returning home, catches their spouse in an act of infidelity and would typically be charged with a lesser degree due to a ‘crime of passion.”

        In both cases, another person is dead by the hands of another, as in your example above. Yet we see different penalties and that is due to the nature of the crime. While not the same as motive, to your point, the act should be treated the same.

        Rather than call the ‘hate crime’ bogus, shouldn’t we just consider the animus a circumstance of the act? Rather than create a new feel good moniker, shouldn’t we just elevate those types of crimes to a higher category thus altering the severity of the punishment?

        • Wellington says

          Aug 9, 2019 at 9:13 pm

          In your example you are not taking into account a “heat of passion” element as opposed to a pre-meditated killing. It all goes to the state of mens rea and not the motive per se.

        • Kepha says

          Aug 10, 2019 at 8:31 am

          Dunno. I can’t for the life of me figure out what a “love crime” or “simple respect crime” might look like. I thought all crimes were hatred, of some degree or another, towards someone else.

        • Angemon says

          Aug 11, 2019 at 7:42 am

          “ I thought all crimes were hatred, of some degree or another, towards someone else.”

          If someone points a knife at me and says “Gimme your wallet”, I don’t assume they hate me, I assume they’re after the contents of my wallet.

    • DHazard says

      Aug 9, 2019 at 5:33 pm

      Here is the link to the study conducted by the Washington Post for the Washington Post upon which Ilhan Omar bases her claims:

      http://lmas.unt.edu/sites/lmas.unt.edu/files/lmas/Hate%20Incidents%20Spike_0.pdf

      But when you look at the study linked you will find it is missing all of the relevant data. Where the meaningful data should be, but isn’t, the paper reads the following (or similar) for all important data:

      etc., then a few graphs and some technical charts and maps. Perhaps the relevant info is buried in there, but why would I bother trying to understand them when it appears significant amounts of data are just missing?

      So you can’t say I didn’t try. And the study is definitely not something from a peer reviewed journal as it contains 3 pages of “references”.

      • DHazard says

        Aug 9, 2019 at 5:39 pm

        From the commenter DHazard: For some reason an important part of my comment disappeared upon posting, probably for containing the right and left wedge pointers. Any way, without those characters, the paper is filled with things like:

        Insert Figure 3. Hate Incident Rates: Rally and Contextual Attributes here,
        Insert Table 1. Number of Hate Incidents here
        Insert Figure 2. County-Level Hate Incidents here

        This happens enough to make the paper meaningless.

      • Gamzu says

        Aug 10, 2019 at 6:05 am

        The study cited above includes these words: “Interestingly, in
        more Republican counties (% Rep 2012) the rate of incidents targeting minorities is significantly
        lower than compared to less Republican counties. In more affluent counties, as measured by
        percent college educated, the incident rate ratios are higher than compared to less affluent
        counties. Further, the rate of hate incidents incidents are significantly higher in the Northeast
        than the South or the Midwest.”

    Love the precision. 226%.

    Not a rounded 225%. Nope, right on the money, which I believe she thinks will give her a certain believe-ability.

    Not working.

    If Ilhan Omar Ibn Al-Khattab, the Wrongly-Guided Calipha of Minnesota feels so unsafe here, get the f*** out and go back to safe and sound Somalia. Easy fix. Go…please!!!.

    If anything is sowing division and hate it is the Marxist media and their Democrat butt buddies.
    That’s what Marxism does…separates everyone into their class or group, then sets every other group against one group. One group is chosen as the Oppressor and all other groups are their Victims and the Oppressed.
    This is classic Leninist, Marxist, Stalinist Class Warfare. They did it to the Kulaks now they’re doing it to Whitie in the US. Same. Same.

    Around 2012, the Dem-O-Commies decided to totally change their platform from Working class, Unions, the poor, etc. to Class Warfare and Hate Whitie. This was a strategic decision. They figured there were now enough non-Whites to set most of them against Whitie and get elected. A strange hateful strategy that has not quite worked out the way they thought.
    Muhammadans are more than happy to assist in this Marxist Anti-Christ endeavor.

    Now, the media is ramping up their Anti-Christian campaign. NetFlix,,,a Far-Left, Marxist, Filth Propagator if ever there was one, has come out with a Anti-Christian Conspiracy documentary for the weak-minded masses to lap up. Apparently, there is a secret “Family” pulling the strings from behind the curtain. They’re working toward a real-life Handmaid’s Tale and Christian theocracy. Any day now you’ll be made to go to church on Sunday and pray in school rather you like it or not. Anyone who believes that it somewhere between moron and idiot. This is classic deflection and demonizing by the evil cabal of Marxists and Islam who really run the Media, Hollywood, and Academia. The sad thing is, it’ll work because after all…it’s on NetFlix. It has to be true.
    If there is a secret Illuminati “Christian” cabal controlling from behind the scenes, they’re not doing a very good job. I wish there were. It would be nice to see the heathen squirm for once. BUT…we all know where this is heading. Christ told us what would happen.

    Do the math. She is right. Violence went up in counties where Trump promoted anger against Hispanics. Are you surprised? Dismissing the Washington Post as an unreliable left wing rag because it offered this information is beneath any reasonable journalistic standard.

    • Leslie Fish says

      Aug 12, 2019 at 3:51 am

      “Violence went up in counties where Trump promoted anger against Hispanics.” Just when and where did this happen, and was there or not “anger against Hispanics” before Trump spoke there? And where is the data that the HuffPo based this statement on? Little love though I have for the FBI, at least it gives accurate data on police-reported crimes, so I’d trust its info before any newspaper’s.

    • gravenimage says

  21. Jeremiah says

    Aug 11, 2019 at 7:24 pm

    It is a war. That is what it means to say that war is deception. The Qur’an commands all Muslims to kill all Christians. So the Qur’an is a declaration of war. Jefferson knew this and, in 1800, he sent the Marines to the Mediterranean to stop the abductions and piracy by the Ottoman Empire. Without piracy, they had to find employment for the pirates. They were unemployable so they lost the war in 1918. In their dying days they killed 3 million Armenians and left them there to die without burial, celebrating their carnage. That had been predicted in Revelation 11. We just have difficulty connecting dots.

  22. Chef Mueller says

    Sep 8, 2019 at 1:33 pm

    A “hate crime” is indeed a chosen words to described a prostitute of a demon-god allah from the Jungles of Somalia, whose demonic and satanic pedophile prophet mohammed slaughtered 900 Christians in a single day.

  23. Chef Mueller says

    Sep 8, 2019 at 1:43 pm

    I’m pretty this somali-clitless and adulterer of prophet mohammed is not even considering her anti-semitic and jew hating rhetoric as a directly and indirectly way to incite hate crimes at the west bank where her beloved palestinian hamas terrorists placed a sign containing a “nazi swastika” at the Gaza strip.
