The “Islamophobia” subterfuge has no place in America, but it is being spread on American soil by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Now this despot is in New York City selling his wares. Never mind the abuses by Islamic supremacists globally.
Erdogan’s global push of the “Islamophobia” trick is an escalation of a long-standing, patient stratagem by Islamic supremacists to subjugate America, the global symbol of freedom, and more broadly the West, under the Sharia prohibition of blasphemy. In this vision, infidels must not insult Muhammad or Islam, as per Sharia restrictions. And they must treat Muslims with superior respect — they must not be subjected to the same criticism or scrutiny as anyone else; nor can Islam be mocked in the same manner that Christianity is mocked.
Back in March:
A billboard in New York City’s Times Square that reads “STOP ERDOGAN,” referring to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, whose rule has seen the imprisonment of tens of thousands on politically motivated charges, has drawn the ire of officials from the ruling Justice and Development Party.
The late writer Christopher Hitchens accurately stated, in his article “The Case for Mocking Religion“:
Civil society means that free expression trumps the emotions of anyone to whom free expression might be inconvenient.
By this definition, we no longer live in a civil society. The Western response to Islamic supremacist demands has been to bow down in order to avoid insulting Muslims. The cornerstone upon which all freedoms are established in free societies is the freedom of speech and expression. Instead, Westerners have accepted the “Islamophobia” canard, imposing reprehensible restrictions upon citizens and blurring the meaning of genuine bigotry and discrimination. Imposing “Islamophobia” upon the West is an Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) stratagem.
Western leaders have surrendered the freedoms only found in Judeo-Christian democracies, and thus betrayed their responsibility to protect their countries and treat all equally.
There is a reason why the term “anti-Muslim bigotry” does not suffice for mainstream Muslim lobbies, which insist on the use of the term “Islamophobia.” It is because the former term does not place Muslims in a position of supremacy, beyond criticism and scrutiny. So they intimidate and bully Western leaders into cowering to their demands. Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan has likened the “pain” Muslims feel over insults to Muhammad to the pain suffered by Jews during Holocaust. To any normal thinking person, this mindset is warped. Imran Khan has also been working steadfastly with the OIC to impose the “Islamophobia” subterfuge upon the world.
“‘Islamophobia virus’ spreading very fast: Erdoğan,” Hurriyet Daily News, September 20, 2021:
Turkey is taking a leading role in the fight against Islamophobia on international platforms, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said on Sept. 19, resembling Islamophobia to a “provocative, deadlier” virus.
“As humanity, we are fighting against the COVID-19 virus, as well as another virus that is more provocative, deadlier and more insidious. The name of this virus is the ‘Islamophobia’ virus,” Erdoğan said in his speech at a conference titled “A Fairer World Is Possible,” organized by the Turkish-American National Steering Committee (TASC) in New York.
This virus is spreading very quickly in countries that have been “portrayed as cradles of democracy and freedom for years,” Erdoğan said, adding that Islamophobia has turned into a trend that disrupts Muslims’ daily lives and threatens social peace.
Expressing that they see this ideological fanaticism, which is no different from ISIL in terms of mentality, taking root in different layers of society, Erdoğan said that Turkey has been working with the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the U.N., among others, as part of the efforts against Islamophobia.
“We are backing every kind of effort to eliminate all threats to our religion and our Muslim brothers,” the president said while calling for support from American Muslims in Turkey’s fight.
Erdoğan also elaborated on the issue of terror groups – the PKK, YPG and FETÖ – and called on members of the Turkish American community to continue to inform their American counterparts about the true face of these terror organizations.
“No matter how big it is, no lie can stand against the sun of truth,” Erdoğan said while stressing over the need for unity against such groups.
The president arrived in New York to attend the U.N. General Assembly’s 76th session, where world leaders will give their annual speeches.
Before his address, the president briefly visited the soon-to-open Turkevi Center located at 821 First Avenue in Manhattan across from the U.N. headquarters.
He said that the 36-story skyscraper is a “monument of pride” that would function not only as a home for Turks but also for the Muslim American community…..

Yes, agree, Islam is a ‘dream’. Islam has no basis in history, archeology or geography. The latest academic scholarship on Islam is showing 1) that there was no Mohammed like the one in the hadiths or Sira, 2) that the Koran was composed and edited long after the time it was supposedly ‘received’, and 3) that Mecca has no archeology linking it to the hadiths, Sira or even the Koran. Everything in Islam’s foundational story is a later attribution. Wrong man, wrong book, wrong place = a false religion that Muslims may abandon with confidence.
Erdogan is ‘dreaming’ and those dreams have no basis in reality. He cannot defend Islam using facts.
Check Burry says
Next they will want an HQ taller than the WT Centre, so they can look down on us all.

Time to kick the useless UN out of New York City ,better yet to kick it out of America. It use is only for tin pot dictators ,and supremist be they Islamics , or communist ,or garden verity murderous strong men who murder their own people in the millions to stay in power .They forever play the victim by pointing out out America,s short comings and mistakes that were corrected over 60 years ago like segregation or voting rights, to slavery outlawed here over 150 years ago. They are other places in Europe and Africa ,or Asia where they can make their useless speeches ,while they protecting, financing terrorist groups ,with their hands out looking for America “aid” in the billions. Close America,s borders (to illegal and unvetted refugees), and close America,s pocket books would be a start to bring some sanity to this insane world in my humble opinion. First step is kicking this useless group first start as a League of Nations started by the worst President of America (before Biden that is) Wilson after the first world war that did nothing to stop the second world war.
Ray Jarman says
+1 I totally agree that the US should drop out of the UN but remember that America never joined the League of Nations. As useless as the League was, the UN is by far a more degenerate and foul organization that has never stopped one war nor has it provided one ounce of protection for the Christian world.
GreekEmpress says
I still say the UN should be repurposed to house our homeless veterans, etc.

Man, I hope so.

Muslims complain of ‘phobia’ when they are unable to make an intellectual defense of Islam. In fact, whenever Muslim apologists cannot find a counter-argument to the deconstruction of foundational Islam, they simply throw up their hands and cry ‘phobia’.
That relieves them of their burden of proof. In fact, Muslims today have discovered, much to their horror, that they have no historical basis for Islam. The historical clues point in another direction.
Ray Jarman says
+1 Mortimer,
They complain about not being loved and respected while at the same time they are in the process of slaughtering Christians throughout the Islamic, and in many cases such as India and Nigeria, world. Can you imagine the outcry from the entire world if the Jewish State of Israel destroyed the unholy site that sits atop of David’s Temple while it does not even protest the insult to Christianity by turning the Santa Sofia into a mosque again.
Elizabeth Lawson says
Rubbish you idiot liar. Much more obvious is the murderous genocide being perpetrated against Christian(aphobia) by your Moslem folk in the West, Nigeria, Indonesia, Pakistan, India – and don’t forget the Hindus, Sikhs, and all other faiths not Moslem. These unfortunate victims were not just ‘offended’ they lie dead in the ground – put there by Moslems.
Your Moslem prescription for life leaves no room for non Moslems. Your compatriots shout their love of and desire for ’Living for death’. Wherever you go, you take war, misery and death with you. Personally, I would prefer our Western lands to be sawed off from all of you – then you could slaughter yourselves.
mortimer says
Erdogan gets his ideas and his ideology from the Koran which says that criticizing Islam is worse than murder. (K.2.217) FITNA is anything that creates disbelief in Islam.
The Islamic definition of ‘FITNA’ is provided by Allah in the Koran … namely, to prevent mankind from following the Way of Allâh, to disbelieve in Him, which is, according to Allah, worse than killing. Ibn Kathir expands on this:
(…and Al-Fitnah is worse than killing.)
means, trying to force the Muslims to revert from their religion and re-embrace KUFR after they had believed, is worse with Allah than killing.
This is because those who have reverted to disbelief have hindered others from the path of Allah, which leads to paradise, and have instead led them on the road to KUFR – disbelief – which leads to hell; this is surely an act worse than killing, as the agony of death does not compare to an eternity of horrific torment.
Muslims like Erdogan live in a world BEFORE the Enlightenment. The Enlightenment is the movement that gave us permission to criticize religion or whatever the heck we disagree with.
Erdogan doesn’t want to live in modernity, but he cannot demand we join him.

the new ottomaniac empire chalifate of the head terrorist sultan lunatic of the billion dollar palace upon a starving population that satisfies their hunger in the islamic dreams of expansion and imposing of sharia worldwide, gained the audacity of a thousant apes each from the modern islamic slaughter performed by the children of the sultan in syria iraq libya and armenia upon the remaining christians as well as the massacres of christians in africa…
the audacity of a thousant apes each for the leaders of the modern ottomaniacs is expressed in every occasion there is in order to seduce the islamolusting left and liberals of the west that lustingly nurture the expansionist dreams of the sultan with sickening propaganda and as its political leg…
i hope thats erdogans horns of the antichrist that reach the sky will not cause an accident with a helicopter or a plane at least not in the west…

Infidel says
No, sultan, islam is the more lethal and insidious disease than the Chinavirus. In fact, Chinavirus, once one recovers from it, doesn’t threaten one at all – including the variants. Islam – b’cos it’s universally recognized as a religion, as opposed to a geopolitical cult, by contrast, gets away w/ murder
john smith says
It’s muslims that are slaughtering us non-muslims on a daily basis, yet this dickhead has the gall to accuse us of being, “A more provocative, deadlier and more insidious virus than covid”.
It’s just unbelievable the lies, the garbage, and the crap that pours out of them.
GreekEmpress says
If anybody puts up another “Stop Erdogan” billboard, let me know. I’ll be happy to pitch in to help pay for it.

We may yet witness the introduction of an “Islamophobia” vaccine. Following on the heels of Covid-19 it will be made mandatory for all Kuffar.

In societies where there is law and order, ‘they simply throw up their hands and cry ‘phobia’ , but elsewhere they simply reach for the sword and cry ‘infidel’.
Linde Barrera says
To Emilie Green-I live in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, NY. It is the place where the movie “Saturday Night Fever” starring John Travolta was filmed in the late 1970’s. It is a safe neighborhood, as far as I know. There are some Muslims here but they are not in the majority. There are a few mosques here too. One mosque called “The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community US” was giving out brochures earlier this year (by the D train subway station) entitled “The Messiah Has Come” and the man claiming to be The Messiah is Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad. This is so bizarre to me. I believe in Jesus Christ, God Incarnate, who is the one and only true Messiah. (There are a number of great Turkish restaurants in this neighborhood too, but I do not go to them anymore.) I do not hate any Muslims at all, but I do hate Islam. To me, Islam is the religion of Satan. I am Islamophobic and proud of it!
As for Erdogan, in my opinion he is a creepy, unjust bureaucrat who is only out for himself. There is no love in him for his fellow man, only for his fellow Muslims. However, I give him credit for remarking a few years ago: “There is no mild, moderate or radical Islam. Islam is Islam.” And doesn’t that say it all?
?
SAFI says
“Provocative”, “deadly”, “insidious” are definitely three of the words that spring to mind whenever I read news about this nasty piece of garbage.
