In 2015, the semi-demented Craig Hicks shot three of his neighbors because he believed they were using parking spaces to which they were not entitled. All three were Muslims. But he had a history of berating non-Muslims, too, over both parking spaces and making noise. His wife of seven years testified that he had never spoken ill of Muslims, never denounced them, never expressed hostility to the ideology of Islam, on social media or anywhere else. In fact, he was anti-Christian, and on his Facebook page wrote: “Knowing several dozen Muslims…I’d prefer them to most Christians.” The police said there was no evidence of a “hate crime.” The prosecutor could come up with no evidence of a “hate crime.” But none of that mattered, or matters, to North Carolina Congressional candidate Nida Allam.
Allam has been milking this non-existent hate crime for all it’s worth. Her website Nida For Congress includes this: “After three of her dear friends were murdered in 2015 — a case that drew national attention and triggered calls for stronger hate crime legislation — Nida Allam took to politics.”
She was spurred to run for office because of the “hate crime” against “three of her dear friends.” Allam is not in the race to further her own wellbeing. Not at all. Personal aggrandizement, power and money and fame — these hold no attractions for the self-effacing Nida Allam. She has girded her loins and entered the political arena in answer to a higher call. She wants to fight against the “hate crimes” that she insists took her friends’ lives.
She has a video at her Nida For Congress website, about her decision to run. Here’s a transcript of part of it:
I was 21 years old when three of my best friends were killed.
Deah, Yusor, and Razan, brutally murdered in a hate crime that shook our community to the core. My lie was shattered but I knew I couldn’t let their legacy die. I looked for ways to fight against the hate that took my friends to make sure that no one would have to experience the pain that we [Muslims] endured , to make sure that we [Muslims] could live with dignity and without fear.
I never set out to make history, but sometimes life has different plans [inshallah fatalism].. It wasn’t just racism and hate that we faced….my service was born out of tragedy…I’m ready to take my passion and my experience [one year as County Commissioner] to the halls of Congress. I’ve been told that I don’t belong, that I ought to wait my turn, but North Carolina can’t wait….I’m Nida Allam, and I’m running for Congress because Congress can’t wait.
Goodness me. So Congress “can’t wait” for the appearance of Nida Allam, who is just like Mighty Mouse, “Here I come, to save the day/That means that Mighty Mouse is on the way.” She does have a whole list of what she intends to accomplish. Most impressive. Nida Allam has a jobs program because “everyone deserves a good paying job.” She wants to fight climate change, because “Black, brown, and working class communities are on the front lines of this crisis.” She has a health care platform: “Everyone deserves comprehensive high-quality healthcare coverage that includes primary care, vision, hearing, dental, mental health care, reproductive health care, and more.” Sounds good to me. She has a housing plan: “Housing is a human right, and all of our neighbors deserve a safe and stable place to live.” “Education? “Every child deserves a quality public school education.” And so on and so mindlessly forth. Foreign policy? “We need to end our ‘so-called war on terror.'”
She never mentions Israel in her “Nida Allam For Congress” website. A curious but understandable admission – Nida may be a fool, but she’s “no fool,” given that this past May, amid escalating violence between Israel and Hamas, Allam participated in a pro-Palestinian rally where protestors chanted slogans such as “Israel is an apartheid state” and “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” the latter of which is correctly understood to be a call to eliminate Israel. In a live video she posted to her Facebook page on May 22, Allam appears to have been chanting that line along with her fellow protestors.
A week earlier, Allam attended a May 15 demonstration in downtown Raleigh marking the annual date of the ‘Nakba’ when Palestinians mark the war of 1948.
Following the May 15 rally, the Jewish Community Relations Council and the Jewish Federation of Raleigh-Cary released a statement identifying alleged instances of “antisemitic rhetoric” used by some demonstrators, including “posters combining Israeli and Nazi imagery.” One poster, the statement said, featured then-Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Benjamin “wearing a Hitler moustache,” while another declared, “Israel, Hitler would be proud of you.”
For her part, Allam denounced what she described as “ethnic cleansing of Palestinians and murder of children” in comments to a local newspaper reporter at the event.
Near the beginning of the May conflict, Allam released a statement of her own calling for a wholesale cessation of U.S. military aid to Israel, which is guaranteed in annual installments of $3.8 billion through a memorandum of understanding between the two countries. “We must end this negligent spending that is being used to oppress the Palestinian people,” Allam wrote, echoing the sentiments of a handful of far-left lawmakers in the House who have argued in favor of conditioning or eliminating aid to the Jewish state.
“I condemn all violence in this conflict and urge the United States to acknowledge our complacency in the continuing Israel-Palestine conflict,” Allam argued at the time.
In June 2018, after reports that the U.S. had quietly frozen aid to the Palestinian Authority, Allam weighed in with an incendiary Twitter comment. “This is the United States of Israel.”
Peter Riezes has reported on Nida Allam’s candidacy here:
Nida Allam, a 27-year-old progressive activist and Durham, North Carolina County Commissioner, announced last week that she will run for the Congressional seat of retiring Rep. David Price (D-NC).
I first researched Allam during her 2019 campaign for County Commissioner, due to her anti-Israel positions. What I found was a history of abhorrent statements that extended far beyond Israel.
In 2018, Allam tweeted, “This is the United States of Israel,” which is consistent with centuries-old antisemitic propaganda that Jews seek to dominate the world.
In 2013, Allam tweeted, “F*** the police,” and she has made many offensive and hateful posts over the years.
I spoke with award-winning Durham columnist and Black minister, Carl W. Kenney II, who told me that Allam’s use of the N-word in a 2014 tweet is “appalling.”
When asked if it matters that Allam’s tweet is from 2014, Kenney responded:
I think it speaks to character issues. I think it speaks to a lack of sensitivity. We have a person who has a desire to run for US Congress at 27…What has she done in building relationships with the Black community to help soothe the pain connected to making that type of statement? … I’m not comfortable that she’s learned a lesson.
When asked about Allam’s “F*** the police” tweet, Kenney told me that while he understands the anger, “In Durham, we’re not one to say ‘f*** the police.’ We want to say we want to work with the police.”
Allam was at the time pressuring the Durham police to end their training arrangement with the Israeli police, falsely claiming that such training “militarized” the Durham Police Force.
“I met with Kenney via Zoom and asked if it is acceptable that I — someone who is not Black — cite Allam’s N-word tweet in this column as a warning to the public. Kenney responded, “You have an obligation to do that. … For people to fully understand what we are talking about, they need to have it in its original form.”
Here’s Allam’s unseemly tweet: “Kid in front of me is in a group text called “United N*gga Network.’ Where do I apply?”
In 2019, Allam tweeted a picture of herself standing with a Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) sign. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) describes JVP as “a radical anti-Israel activist group that advocates for a complete economic, cultural and academic boycott of the state of Israel.”…
Allam has repeatedly promoted her close ties with noted antisemite Linda Sarsour, calling Sarsour “my shero, role-model, mentor, and so much more.”
Sarsour has been widely criticized for advocating for the destruction of Israel via the BDS movement and other means, saying “Nothing is creepier than Zionism,” and advising Muslims not to “humanize” Israelis.
Earlier this year, Black constituents and politicians strongly criticized Allam and two other Durham commissioners for what was viewed by many as racially divisive policies.
“There is a sense in the Black community that she [Allam] is among the politicians here who doesn’t really talk to Black people” Kenny [sic] told me. “They have an idea of what is best for Black people without actually engaging in the conversation. That’s a problem.”
On his widely read blog, Kenney warns: “If Allam has her way, the race for Congress will not be determined by local Black voters. It will be won by the support of the national media and progressive politicians desirous of an addition to The Squad — joining Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI).”…
Just hours after Allam announced her run for Congress, Ilhan Omar tweeted, “Let’s go Nida!”; Keith Ellison tweeted, “Great Candidate”; and Linda Sarsour retweeted Allam’s campaign announcement….
Nida Allam’s campaign received $115,000 in donations in just the first day it opened. Muslims from all over the country sent money, eager to add one more anti-Israel voice to Congress, provide another potential collaborator of Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, another member of the Squad. No doubt CAIR is out fundraising for her, raising money among Muslims across the country who are relentlessly focused on increasing Muslim power in Washington. This would-be squadette needs to be stopped in her tracks, or headed off at the pass, preferably by an African-American candidate who will make good use of Allam’s “United N*gga Network” tweet, and of her palpable want of interest, according to the columnist and black minister Carl Kenney II, in African-Americans.
According to her website, the essence of Nida Allam is that she is “working for a brighter future.” What a fantastic idea. Really, who could disagree?

“She was spurred to run for office because of the “hate crime” against “three of her dear friends.”
There must be a whole lot of non-Muslims spurred to run for office because of — the hate crimes, beheadings, mass-terror-murder attacks on infidels and fake Muslim migration dictated by the Quran —- against their friends and families.
Clever Taqiya by Muslims to push their Islamic agenda through politics

And in the end they will take over the whole world and that´s why all real people must stop them and have no mercy on them.
they must expelled and all the muslim countries must be boycotted, and their weapons must be destroyed.
They must be treated ,all of them, as the nazi mass murderers in Nuremberg . Every normal country should have a special court for the muslims
PRCS says
“they must expelled ”
There are around 3.5 million Muslims in the U.S.
They’re NOT going to be expelled en masse. Period.
Game plan B, please.

Stop further invasion by the Muslim hordes–the Trump “Muslim ban” did not go far enough but was a good first step. Then begin deportaion with the worst Jihadists that have served their sentences. Come down hard on Jihad crimes, and be sure to investigate the Mosques, Imams, families, and associates of Jihadists.
Of course, none of these common sense actions are apt to happen under Biden…

, “reproductive health care.” The buzz words for killing innocent babies.
She’s okay with that as her fellow mozlums put their little kids out front to carry rocks, suicide packs, and be the first that are killed by defensive measures; plus, her fellow mozlums put their warfare materials and their rockets in elementary schools and day-care centers and hospitals so when Israel tries to defend its citizens, incoming hit these and kill those who refuse to leave.
She’s okay with grown adult males forcing a small, terrified child, into the shields of Polish officers attempting to prevent an unlawful invasion of their border.
She’s a mozlum wanting to further islam by getting ‘elected’ to “rep” for islam and mozlums….***only*****… she wants the big bucks like her fellow scum, i. elmi alias i. omar, fellow fraudster to the fraudster r. tlaib and the creep who was proud to announce the killing of her unborn baby, pressley, along with loudmouth bartender, aoc. This empty-headed, empty-hearted…except for islam’s slime…bigoted mozlum will fit right in.
Infidel says
Once she joins, the squad will be 60% muslim, and then maybe those 3 can kick out AOC and Ayanna Pressley, and slam the door on Cori Bush’s hopes of being a member. Like I suggested yesterday, the Dems should have 50 mohammedan nominees from each of the 50 muslim countries that are there in the world, and make the muslim squad their equivalent of the OIC
Wellington says
Making matters all the worse, Infidel, is that at least some 50% of Republicans still have no idea how rotten Islam is.
Infidel says
Yeah, only my 2 heroines – Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert seem to have any idea. And on the senate side, to an extent, Rand Paul

It is an act of outright deceit for Muslims to take any U.S. oath of office or allegiance. Doing so with one hand on a Qur’an is like rubbing salt in an open wound.
Qur’an 9:29
Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
The U.S. Constitution and relevant secular, manma\de laws make lawful what Islamic law prohibits and makes unlawful much of what it teaches/permits/commands (polygmy, FGM, cruel and unusual punishments, etc.).
Did North Carolina voters ask Nida Allam to declare that she believes in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute–before her two electoral wins–as John Kennedy did in 1960?
Will they ask her during her Congressional campaign?
john smith says
This should have been nipped in the bud years ago. People with such hateful anti- Semitic views should never be allowed to even run for congress, let alone be in congress.
The lot of them should be kicked out, just like our Labour Party did with Jeremy Corbyn.
GreekEmpress says
I’d like to know what any of the Muslim squad members have actually done for the districts they represent—
Seems like all they do is go off on anti-Semitic rants.
Infidel says
Comrade Ilhan Abdullahi is on the Foreign Relations Committee, and all I’ve ever seen her do is do a legislative jihad on behalf of muslims. I recall her grilling a State Department official a couple of years ago about anti-muslim activities in the Indian state of Assam, which I’m willing to bet she can’t find on a map. She doesn’t do didly squat for her district, except maybe for her Somalian and other muslim constituents. She’s lucky that her district is so heavily communist that there’s no danger of her ever being voted out

I hope that the voters in Noth Carolina are a little saarter than the voters in Minesota.

North Carolina: Anti-Israel ‘Progressive’ Muslim Congressional Candidate Hopes to Become New ‘Squad’ Member
……………..
Perhaps she can replace Ayanna Pressley, who has proven to be more of a standard leftist, but not nearly as unhinged as the rest of the “Squad”…
And I am *so* sick of these far leftists being referred to as “progressives”–particularly Hijabbed Muslims, as there is nothing *less* progressive than the horrors of Islam.
More:
Deah, Yusor, and Razan, brutally murdered in a hate crime that shook our community to the core. My lie (sic) was shattered but I knew I couldn’t let their legacy die. I looked for ways to fight against the hate that took my friends to make sure that no one would have to experience the pain that we [Muslims] endured , to make sure that we [Muslims] could live with dignity and without fear.
……………..
This is certainly an apt typo–perhaps a Freudian slip? There is nothing whatsoever to indicate that this insanity from Hicks was a hate crime. But Nida Allam is going to use anything she can.
Of course, the real hate is her genocidal hatred of the Jews. I hope North Carolina voters are smart enough to just say no to this creep.
Infidel says
‘Progressive’ is just a euphamism for a hard-Left communist. It’s not much different from communist countries during the Cold War being known as ‘Democratic’ or ‘People’s Republic, such as
‣People’s Republic of China
‣Democratic People’s Republic of Korea
‣German Democratic Republic
‣People’s Democratic Republic of Yemen
These fascists are about as ‘progressive’ as they are ‘democratic’ or have anything to do w/ the ‘people’. Don’t get hung up over their self-styled labels

Grimly true, Infidel.

They *progress* ever more and more toward tyranny and evil actions, up to and including *termination* of all who refuse to bow to them.
I noticed she said my “lie” too, but was not sure if that was a typo by the one transcribing or if she actually said that.
She doesn’t bring anything good to the table since her “lie” and her *life* are all about islam, all of the time.
Since she is so obviously a true “racist,” her claim to want to help Blacks should be a red flag to all Blacks in the State who might vote or know someone who will be voting.
