My latest in PJ Media:
Netflix’s Cuties, which glamorizes pedophilia under the guise of providing what it calls “a critical look on pressure society puts on young girls to act sexual,” has been roundly denounced. But now the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has added a new twist. Besides criticizing the series for its “hyper-sexualization of children,” the Islamic group is enraged over the series for something virtually no one else has noticed: It portrays Islam negatively.
According to Media Play News, CAIR’s objections to the film started out reasonably enough. CAIR’s co-founder and longtime executive director Nihad Awad declared: “We join other Americans in calling on Netflix to remove this disturbing film from its platform. Although the filmmakers behind Cuties have argued that the film is meant to criticize the hyper-sexualization of children, a film cannot criticize the abuse of children while abusing children.”
On that, CAIR and I agree at last: The film is a disgusting illustration of how degenerate popular culture has become. It’s the kind of decadent display we have seen in declining civilizations of the past, and that is not a good sign.
But CAIR had more to say than just that. The film “demeans the Islamic religion,” according to CAIR, because it portrays the father of one of the characters as a polygamist, and “her mother as oppressed.” It apparently also “features a scene in which her family conducts an exorcism, leading the young girl to gyrate and ‘twerk’ while wearing revealing clothing, all as an Arabic recitation plays in the background.”
“None of this should be acceptable in American society, especially the sexual objectification of children,” Awad thundered. “Netflix should immediately remove the film and apologize to the public.”
Why, yes, Nihad, yes. But wait a minute. CAIR is upset because the film depicts the Muslim girl’s father as a polygamist? But Islam allows for polygamy. The Qur’an says that a man can have up to four wives (4:24). Muhammad himself had multiple wives, and polygamy is still approved in Islamic law to this day.
Last January in India, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board stated, in response to a legal challenge to polygamy, that the practice was justified in the Qur’an and Sunnah, and therefore non-Muslims had no right to challenge it. There is no record of CAIR criticizing the All India Muslim Personal Law Board for misunderstanding Islam. And in October 2019 in Malaysia, a survey revealed that seventy percent of Muslim women had no problem with the concept of polygamy, although only thirty-two percent said they would be okay with their husbands practicing it.
There is much more. Read the rest here.

And the ‘holy’ prophet of islam deflowering a NINE year old girl..?
SAHIH BUKHARI 5:58:236
muhammed met Aisha at SIX and when she was NINE “it was consummated”.
Like..Like..THAT wouldn’t ‘portray islam negatively’?
Pedophile muhammed.
And while I’m at it, I’d like to remind CAIR of something about muhammed’s companions:
“It was narrated that the companions of the prophet used to masturbate while they were on military expeditions or travelling”
Bada’i al Fuwa’id of ibn Qayyim{islamic scholar} page 129
To borrow an English term,pedophile mo’s followers were ….a shower of wankers:literally.
All this,about muhammed being a pedophile and his companions being wankers comes from islamic sources.What are you going to do CAIR?
You cannot cry ‘islamophobia’:these are YOUR islamic sources….

So the film abusing children puts the moslim abuse of children on the screen for all of the people watching to see for themselves that in islam, it is just fine and dandy to abuse and rape young children. And…awad just can’t have that as the head of cair and as a devoted-to- islam moslim.
islam demands the abuse and rape of children, even trying to make it legit by calling the repeated rape “marriage.” And moslim males go to great lengths to make sure they get their dirty hands on as many children as possible…through abduction, marrying many women and fathering victims, as well as buying sex slaves from other moslim males. But, cair and awad don’t want this to be public knowledge.
awad has brought extra attention to the facts by complaining about the negative aspects shown to the public audiences. According to moslims and islam, the Truth must be hidden unless speaking it makes islam grow.
The film is beyond disgusting and so are moslims such as this awad.

Imams in Canada and the USA should allow non-believers to sit in the classrooms and listen to what they are teaching the little children. Imam at 9000 Bathurst in Toronto, Canada. “Marriage with 9 year olds is moral in Islam, temporary (muta) or permanent.

CAIR Denounces Netflix’s Pedophilia-Fest ‘Cuties’ – Because It Portrays Islam Negatively
……………
That’s all pious Muslims care about. They certainly do not oppose the abuse of young girls.
Eleanor says
Exactly GI – it’s obvious their only gripe about this film is the negative portrayal of Islam – however, they could not just say that and get away with it – so they had absolutely no choice but to mention the sexualisation of young girls – it must have gutted them to do this, as we all know they don’t give a fat rat’s arse about the exploitation of young girls.

If you keep pedophilia in the Islamic closet, like slavery, women of the right hand, honor killing, true Sharia law ,CAIR is a Ok with it, but if you bring it out into the open air where the non-believers can smell the stink ,it gets CAIR panties into a painful knot.
Mischief Maker in the Land says
A knot or A WAD?
wpm says
Either CAIR performs Jihad of the pen, lawfare, ect to work hand in glove with the subjugation of the nonbelievers with covering violent Jihadist. Censorship thru threats of possible violence terror to get its way.

Portrays Islam Negatively because it’s the truth and it’s a fact
Lightship Chaplain says
Never mind the truth, its all about the progressive narrative. These people have destroyed our country, and still aren’t done!

Furthermore, Qur’an 65:4 assumes consummation of marriage with prepubescent girls:
https://quotingislam.blogspot.com/2011/06/islamic-scholars-explanations-of-quran.html
Muhammad in his 50s consummated marriage with the pre-pubescent, 9-year-old Aisha, according to the Islamic sources themselves.
Rob R (Brit stuck in Britainistan) says
Netflix is a lot like Islam. offers very little but it somehow keeps getting renewed every month by millions of braindead people (or by people who are scared of being mocked for not giving it the thumbs up!)
notnolib says
From what I understand, CAIR is a terror organization. It’s officers, members, and supporters are terrorists and deserve to be treated as such.
Dorothy Davies says
Oh for the day when they get their deserts!
Michael Copeland says
From “Easy Guide to Sharia Law”:
Child brides of six, consummation at nine,
Sex-play with infants or beasts — all fine.
Short term marriage in exchange for rent,
Usable boys — no age of consent.
A man may marry four wives at a time,
And divorce them simply by quoting a rhyme.
A wife is a chattel to buy, beat, and use,
Obliged to submit, not allowed to refuse.
She may not go out of the house alone,
Or talk to a man who is not of her own.
Though a woman may testify all that she can
Her witness is rated half that of a man.
She’s only entitled to half the share
That a man will inherit if he is co-heir.
In a marriage that founders it’s always the same,
The man keeps the children, regardless of blame.
For a guilty verdict where rape is averred
There have to be four male witnesses heard.

Why the concern from CAIR everything about Islam is negative. Nice post from Michael Copeland, spells out the human rights problem with Islam, where is the lefts outrage about the treatment of girls and women in the islamic community.
I’ll guarantee if the Catholic Church supported the same treatment of girls and women all hell would breakout.
PRWhitener says
Islam, the religion of degenerates and pervs. Before anyone comments, do I believe that all muslims are evil? No, but that is inspite of their religion.

Not so, Islam is negative because, in part, of its ritual pedophilia where old men ‘marry’ 8-year old girls…
Islam is a perverted group all on its own. Oh, there are other problems, but CAIR’s objection is like Heidi Fleiss calling out street walkers.
drljr says
So CAIR is objecting to the movie accurately describing what Islam allows its citizens to do to children and others. Under the laws of Islam the victim is responsible for what happens to them. Get a Qur’an and read it. Islam is rooted in depravity and it promotes depravity.
E T says
Yes, get a Qur’an and read it. Read it and study it, there is no love, only for Allah. I was shocked the first time I read it. You certainly can understand where the crazies get their hate from.
gravenimage says
I was shocked when I first read the Qur’an, too. And the more you learn, the worse it gets. I didn’t know about abrogation or what “captives of the right hand” were when I first read that ugly tome.

I S L A M . I see lots a murder. You murder for honour, blasphemy, homosexuality, adultery – stoning, looking at someone, leaving someone, it is an oppressive, cult like “religion”.
