No problem. That’s easily remedied. And nothing could possibly go wrong once resources are properly directed, right? After all, with New Zealand poised to discard the freedom of speech and adopt a law that will effectively criminalize criticism of Islam, jihad violence won’t be necessary. Once doesn’t make war against those who have already surrendered.
“New Zealand missed Christchurch killer because they were ‘too focussed on Islamic extremism,’” 5Pillars, December 9, 2020:
Security agencies in New Zealand missed the Christchurch mosque killer because they were too busy concentrating on “Islamic extremists,” a Royal Commission of Inquiry has found.
The report found that Brenton Tarrant was able to plot, amass an arsenal of weapons and execute his deadly attack without drawing the attention of security agencies which had deployed “an inappropriate concentration of resources” probing Islamic extremism….
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and Police Commissioner Andrew Coster apologised for the failings, but Islamic Women’s Council leader Aliya Danzeisen criticised the secrecy of the report and says justice has not been served to the Muslim community….
SIS Director-General Rebecca Kitteridge said while no failures were found within government agencies, “many” lessons could be learned and “significant areas” needed change.
She also apologised to the Muslim community after hearing how they felt “targeted by the security agencies” or felt “under suspicion” when they were not….

I can’t follow this at all. They claim that an “inappropriate concentration of resources” was aimed at preventing Muslim terrorism. But surely, worldwide, Muslims would carry out 99% of the terrorist attacks, so it makes sense to be concentrating on preventing terrorist attacks by the followers of murderous islam. Now they will probably, stupidly, give the murderous Muslims a free run in New Zealand and it will end up with Muslim terrorist attacks which could have been prevented if the security resources kept “appropriately” checking on the Muslim enemy. Because of this attack on the mosque, the New Zealand government seems to have caved in and surrendered to the Muslims, which is a very foolish move.

WATCH ABOVE: At 21, Austin Lewis of Toronto lives his life in a wheelchair. Now, as Sean O’Shea reports he’s also dealing with another obstacle when it comes to getting a subsidized apartment: he has the wrong religion.
TORONTO — A disabled Toronto man had his name removed from the waiting list of a subsidized city apartment because he does not meet the main criteria for living there: being Muslim.
“It doesn’t make any sense; I lived in Texas, that doesn’t make sense even there,” said Austin Lewis, 21, who is paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair.
Lewis is attempting to find subsidized, rent-to-income accommodations in Toronto. He has applied to dozens of apartments through Housing Connections, an organization that manages a waiting list of applicants applying for subsidized housing.
UPDATE: Toronto city councillor says Muslim-only subsidized housing is acceptable
This week, Lewis received a letter from Housing Connections, informing him he would be taken off the list for an apartment at 3001 Finch Ave. West, operated by Ahmadiyya Abode of Peace Inc.
The letter reads, in part: “The vision of this community includes providing housing for households in which at least one person is a member of Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at. This means if none of the individuals of your household are a member … you will be removed from the waiting list.”
“It’s prejudiced, it’s racist,” said Laura Whiteway of Brampton, Lewis’s mother. “It’s wrong on every single level: this goes against everything Canada represents to me.”

The photo of this silly woman wearing an hijab says a lot. Indeed it does.
Think Ahern has any real knowledge of what Islam intends for all of us? I think not.
Clowns, jokers and worse still in charge, for the most part, in the West. Damn.
Wellington says
“Ardern” and not “Ahern.” Hmmm, a la Don Rickles re Youngstown v, Steubenville, like it makes a difference?
PRCS says
“Think Ahern has any real knowledge of what Islam intends for all of us? ”
As always, since few politicians ever are challenged to factually explain specific passages from Islam’s written texts–as they understand it–we are left to wonder.
Even when dunderheads like Keith Ellison ARE put on the spot they either don’t know what they’re talking about or do and are hoping others won’t realize that.

Could be, but I suspect that like so many Muslims in the West, he doesn’t — per a Bill Warner quip — know sunna from tuna.

well when Muslims fear Muslims as well, because they know what they are capable off. They own all buildings and if you hear musics etc , they get bad with you. So all Muslims escaped the wrath of their nations fascism. How ever now they come new fascism that they escaped from they live in their neighbour hoods and want them out . So we fight with them call cops etc.. We will not give any lands to their old and useless Shariah Law. So you want us be with you all do not judge me bad , till i do not judge you bad? We are in same path.

Mojdeh, I’m afraid you have said this before–that all Muslims in the West fled Dar-al-Islam because they have fled Jihad, and that they all report Jihad terror to the police and FBI.
But if this were true there would be no Jihad terror here in the first place, which clearly is *not* the case. Most Muslims come here to impose the horrors of Shari’ah law on us–even here in the US, more than half of Muslims openly say they plan to do just that.
You have never once said why we shoud consider this a good thing.
And the claim that the West trying to protect her people against Jihad is a “new fascism” is just grotesque.
I know you have several times lauded a case in Sacramento about a man from Egypt who was awarded millions of dollars after having been suspected of terrorism (never mind that I have never found any such case, and you refuse to offer any links). Nevertheless, if he (assuming he exists)–and you–were *really* opposed to the horrors of Jihad, saying that we owe suspects millions in tax-payer’s money is *very* strange.

New Zealand Commission of Inquiry: Cops missed mosque terrorist because of ‘inappropriate’ focus on jihad terror

What absolute tripe. The shooter was not even from New Zealand.
Eleanor says
This is concerning — what is worrying is that the country seems to be proud of this ‘accolade’.
“Nov 1, 2020 – New Zealand has been named the country that most fits Islamic ideals for the second year in a row, but the area of everyday finance is still difficult for Muslims, says a financial commentator.
In the 2019 Islamicity index, released earlier this year, New Zealand is ranked first overall, followed by Sweden, Iceland, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Denmark and Ireland. The top Muslim-majority country is United Arab Emirates (UAE) at 44.”

San Jose Arab American sues FBI over GPS
In this Jan. 5, 2011 photo shows Yasir Afifi at his home in San Jose, Calif. Afifi says he’s never done anything that should raise the attention of federal law enforcement is suing the FBI for secretly putting a GPS on his car. Afifi says a mechanic doingan oil change in October discovered the device stuck under his car with magnets. Afifi says two days later, agents showed up outside his apartment and demanded their property back.
So that is some of your questions answered. We want all people to be brothers and sisters and we must not
see every one as Satan. I do not say we have very bad Muslims in North America, but is not up to me tag them and make innocent people like him guilty . So what is difference between us and Ayatoolahs hanged MR ZAM. Thanks a lot

Mojdeh, *of course* I know that there are Christians, Jews, and other non-Muslims in the Middle East–and in every nation save Israel, they are *persecuted*, because that is what Islam does.
The implication that I irrationally dislike people from the Middle East rather than my *actually* taking issue with the horrors of Islam is just calumny.

San Jose Arab American sues FBI over GPS…

You initially said this story was from Sacramento–it is not; it is from San Jose–no wonder I was unable to find it. San Jose is also in my neck of the woods, though.
But the idea of lauding the vicious Hamas-linked CAIR suing over law enforcement investigating possible links to Jihad terror is just appalling.
You also made other claims about this case which do not appear to be borne out–that the suspect is not Muslim (is it not impossible that CAIR would take such a case if they thought they could make hay out of it, but it is damned unlikely); the claim that he only traveled to Egypt to visit his sick father; and the claim that he had been awarded millions of dollars.
In fact, this last is flat-out *wrong*:
“Judge dismisses lawsuit over GPS tracking”
https://www.politico.com/blogs/under-the-radar/2015/04/judge-dismisses-lawsuit-over-gps-tracking-206410
Whether this claim was intentionally wrong or just mistaken I have no idea.
But in any case, the idea that Infidels owe Muslims millions of dollars if they dare investigate them for Jihad terror is *deeply* disturbing.
As I have noted, Robert Spencer has mentioned many times that he has been questioned at airports when someone has noticed his reading or working on Jihad Watch and become concerned. Needless to say, he has never sued anyone–instead, he thanks them for taking such concerns seriously.
Not Jihad related, but I had something somewhat similar happen. In college I worked crazy hours as well as going to school. During a move, my boyfriend and I were moving furniture and belongings out of my old apartment. A neighbor or passerby called the police. We had to explain the situation, present paperwork and keys, and show that the keys worked for both locations.
It wasn’t until after the police arrived that I realized how this *might* look suspiciously like a robbery. Even though the whole thing was an inconvenience, we thanked the officers afterward, because if it *had* been a robbery and someone was stealling our stuff, we’d want the police to take the possibility seriously.
That Mojdeh wants the ‘filthy Infidels’ to stop investigating potential cases of Jihad terror, and believes that any subjects of such investigations deserve millions of dollars of taxpayer’s money is *deeply* disturbing.

The idea that if you don’t pretend that Jihad terror does not exist that you are not treating others as brothers and sisters is just ludicrous. I want to see *all* people protected from Jihad terror–Mojdeh here obviously does not.
And no one “made” Yasir Afifi guilty of anything–they simply investigated what appeared to be plausibly suspicious activities.
Then, the idea that putting a tracking device on a suspect’s car in the course of an investigation is the same as luring, kidnapping, and murdering a man for opposing the horrors of the Iranian Mullahs is simply grotesque.

Toronto mother is furious that her disabled son was taken off the waiting list for a city-subsidized accessible apartment because he does not meet the requirement that tenants be practising Muslims.
Austin Lewis, 21, who has used a wheelchair since he was eight years old, told the Toronto Star that he has applied to more than 100 accessible buildings in the city and was shocked to learn that he was no longer on the waiting list at the Ahmadiyya Abode of Peace building in North York.
The Muslim-only apartment building is one of eight social housing projects funded by the city and permitted to restrict tenancy on religious or ethnic lines.

Treereen says
Wow! That’s some distilled, high concentration political correctness busy at its most malignant work. Officially sanctioned discrimination paid for by those constantly beaten on the head with the diversity stick? Just wow!
Then again, I can’t imagine who in their right mind would clamour for an apartment in one of those buildings.
Well, at least that somewhat clears up the mystery of where wheelchair-bound people are on the modern day victimhood and grievance totem pole.

If there is a vote for the most stupid world leader in the world i would vote the NZ PM without thinking twice. Poor NZ! The frustrating thing is she walks around as if she is the smartest while being affirmed as such by the Leftist and Islamist controlled media. By the way the Canadian PM is probably a close second to her.

I think of the story of the Trojan horse. It runs parallel to what is going on in NZ. PoorNZ? Maybe we brought it on ourselves. A wilfully blind nation that follows and believes whatever emanates from the Beehive and the Press is true. Thankfully there are many thinking NZers who are wide awake to the UNO Agenda but is it too late? NZ was founded on Judaeo Christian principles. It served us well especially over 2 World Wars. NZ is no longer a Christian nation. We kicked God out of Parliament and following the Christchurch event Jacinda Ardern allowed an Imam to recite the Islamic prayer in Parliament. What does this tell you? I believe NZ is well and truly set up as a model for the great Reset. That being the case watch this space!

Why did all these various countries around the world open their borders to the people of islamic countries in the past 20yrs.?
Why would these islamic people who love islam want to leave the wonderful Islamic peaceful States that they live in?
Are these Islamic State leaders using migration as an invasion tool to spread their ideology of islamic world domination?
When will the open border one world idealist wake up to the fact that there are bad and evil people in the world, who wish to impose their will upon the rest of us?
