Accusing Amy Mek of Islamophobia, Shukri Abdullahi Abdirahman brandishes a dangerous weapon that threatens her safety and aims to stifle free speech.
In a startling turn of events, former GOP candidate Shukri Abdullahi Abdirahman has launched a scathing attack on Amy Mek, the founder of RAIR Foundation USA, with potential life-threatening implications. This deliberate assault highlights the grave dangers of weaponizing accusations and threats within the political landscape, leaving Amy Mek and her organization at risk.
The incident began when Amy Mek shared a video featuring a French imam’s statements on the conquest of France through jihad. Responding to the tweet, Elon Musk made a statement that seemingly endorsed the imam’s views, sparking controversy. However, the subsequent actions of the GOP candidate escalated the situation to a dangerous level.
Amy Mek expressed gratitude to Musk for bringing attention to her work. It is important to note that Amy’s Twitter account has faced censorship from the German and French governments since 2017, adding further context to the situation.
Shukri Abdullahi Abdirahman’s Dangerous Criticism
However, this exchange did not go without criticism from an Islamic supremacist. Shukri Abdullahi Abdirahman, a former controversial Republican House candidate who vied for the party nomination in Minnesota’s 5th District, took issue with Musk’s comment on one of Amy’s tweets. Accusing her of Islamophobia, Shukri, a sharia-adherent Somali migrant, unleashed a torrent of incendiary and potentially harmful accusations. With what appears to be a deliberate intent to fuel anger, she potentially incited her more fanatical followers to consider enacting a Sharia punishment on Amy Mek.
The Dangerous Power of Accusations
The concept of freedom of speech has long served as a safeguard against tyrannical authority, allowing individuals to question and criticize both religious and political institutions. Throughout history, from Galileo challenging the cosmology of the Church to modern-day debates, the right to critique has played a crucial role in maintaining a balance of power, especially in the face of religious and political authorities that often seek to exert control. However, a relatively new term, “Islamophobia,” has emerged, rooted in neo-Marxist ideology, which aims to stifle religious criticism and ultimately curtail dissent against political authority and its policies.
In today’s world, the accusation of Islamophobia carries deeply alarming significance, especially when made by an accuser with standing in the Islamic community. It has become a potential death sentence as more and more individuals across the Western world live under constant threats of violence or have already paid the ultimate price for daring to express critical views about Islam. Journalists, politicians, authors, artists, cartoonists, and teachers all face the specter of death or live under police protection due to the dangers associated with speaking out against how Islam demands itself to be represented. The weight of these accusations can be immense and often is tantamount to pointing a loaded gun at the accused.
Accusing someone of Islamophobia has become a powerful weapon capable of inciting violence and even murder. The term holds immense sway, igniting anger, intimidation, and physical harm. It also provides justification for any fanatic seeking personal gain by “defending the faith.” An accusation of Islamophobia is akin to a “Wanted dead or alive” poster from the Old West, inviting anyone to seek retribution for material or spiritual rewards.
It is crucial to note that in countries such as Pakistan, from which many migrants in the West originate, accusations of blasphemy can lead to brutal public executions without fair trials. This culture of vigilantism, deeply rooted in religious beliefs, has extended its influence into Western societies, further exacerbating the risks associated with accusations of Islamophobia. These risks should not be underestimated, as they have the potential to destroy lives and tear communities apart.
Manipulation by Political Figures
The danger intensifies when political figures, candidates, or activist journalists exploit the accusation of Islamophobia for their own agendas. By labeling individuals as Islamophobes, these figures knowingly manipulate public sentiment, fueling anger and inciting a mentality of seeking retribution against the accused. This becomes particularly troubling when the accuser is a self-proclaimed Sharia-adherent GOP candidate. The consequences of such actions cannot be understated, as they directly threaten the lives and well-being of those targeted.
Living Under Constant Threat
Those accused of Islamophobia must live in constant fear, often requiring police protection and altering their daily routines to ensure their safety. They face the grim reality of death threats, forced anonymity, and the loss of their freedom to openly express their opinions. Their lives are characterized by the need to constantly watch their backs, anticipating potential attacks or acts of violence by extremists who perceive any criticism of Islam as an affront to their beliefs and a threat to Islamic primacy. The toll on their mental and emotional well-being is immeasurable as they navigate a world filled with uncertainty and the constant threat of harm.
The Tragic Losses and the Role of Migration
Countless lives have been tragically lost due to accusations of Islamophobia. From Lars Vilks, the Swedish cartoonist who perished in a car accident alongside his police guards, to the targeted killings of Charlie Hebdo staff and the attempted assassination of Salman Rushdie, the repercussions of these accusations are devastating. Writers, journalists, activists, poets, clergy, secular thinkers, cartoonists, teachers, students, politicians, and artists who dared to challenge the boundaries imposed by Islamic supremacists have paid the ultimate price. Their deaths serve as a haunting reminder of the dangers faced by those who refuse to be silenced. It is crucial to acknowledge that migration from countries where accusations of blasphemy carry severe consequences plays a role in importing the cultural dynamics that perpetuate violence and intolerance.

More Islamophobia rubbish. It’s not even a matter of fear but of criticism. And not to be critical of Islam considering its track record and what is stated in its texts is evidence of negligence or complicity. There is something wrong with a person, Muslim or non-Muslim, who thinks that followers of Islam are no more likely to be violent and intolerant in the name of their faith than followers of any other major religion. In fact, such people are either liars or ignoramuses.
Ray Jarman says
+1, Wellington, I could not agree more and I know of only one religion (more like a cult) that states kill all non-cult members. While all religions have their own beliefs about life and the after life, only Islam has the teachings about killing all infidels or even other Muslims not Islamic enough.

Ray, I was just thinking of you yesterday. Happy to see you, best wishes always.
Ray Jarman says
Thanks, I appreciate it.

EVERYTHING Amy has revealed about the Islamization of France and Germany is the absolute truth. And this ex GOP candidate is only upset because she knows it’s true! If this broad was a REAL American, she would be upset with the terrorist who have burned much of France to the ground and not Amy for exposing the truth.
DHZ says
Freedom of Speech isn’t a numbers game. The one person out of a thousand with a different view than the majority can say pretty much whatever he wants. His speech is protected even though the other 999 want him dead. That’s because choosing who gets to speak and who doesn’t leads to tyranny. Besides, who gets to choose the choosers?

Shukri Abdullahi Abdirahman should be deported. Return to sender.
A Muslim Trojan Horse.

Yes, put her on a leaky boat back to somalia.

Yes agree.

“Never Let a Brave Man Go Unpunished: French Media Rat on Hero Officer, Afghan Vet….Left-wing media doxed the name and address of the officer being held in connection with the shooting of 17-year-old Nahel M.” Gateway Pundit
Where’s the left or the government with their shrieking about trying to get people killed?
࿗Infidel࿘ says
I know that the GOP would like some muslim support, but they’re going about it the wrong way by trying to get hijab clad muslimah supremacists onto their bandwagon. In Virginia recently, one county’s GOP encouraged people to vote for a muslimah candidate in a Dem primary on the basis that she would be easy to defeat in a general. However, in the process, they overlooked her links w/ Hamas & other anti-Semitic activity. The party leadership needs to be more in tune w/ the grassroots
somehistory says
This creepy scum needs to be arrested and charged with incitement to do bodily harm. and then tried, found guilty….her words are out there, she can’t erase them…and send her packing back to somalia.
she has sown her evil weeds and will soon reap the painful harvest. That day is coming quickly.
PRCS says
Not sure how she completed 10 years active U.S. Army service with that attitude and belief.
No one in her COC noticed? Or did she begin espousing the Islamophobia nonsense after leaving the service?
James Lincoln says
PRCS,
Muslims have infiltrated the US military, sometimes with tragic results.
Remember the 2009 deadly assault at Fort Hood, carried out by muslim Major Nidal Malik Hasan, an Army psychiatrist.
The worst mass shooting at a U.S. military installation may have been prevented if not for the fear of leadership being branded “islamophobic”.
PRCS says
That’s very true, James.
COC knew, but did nothing.
Three others come to mind:
Pfc. Naser Jason Abdo (also Fort Hood)

Sgt. Hasan Karim Akbar (fragging in camp)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Hasan_K._Akbar
And one other (an Abdo copycat?) which incident escapes me right now
As I recall, those incidents could also have been prevented but for poor leadership.

In her case, however, I don’t recall her espousing the sharia when she ran as a challenger to Ilhan Omar.
James Lincoln says
PRCS,
Thanks for the reply – and added info.
Jim says
What surprises me is that the Muslim belongs to the GOP. I would have guessed they would only belong to the Dems, especially in MInnesota. Perhaps it is like the leftists who run as candidates of the GOP, because the Dems cannot win in their district. In the old South conservatives ran as Democrats, because Republicans could not win. But since the South got more open, there are more Republicans in Southern politics. It is a puzzle to me why a Muslim would be a Republican candidate in Minnesota, which is dominated by the Democrats. Unless she is running in a Muslim majority district. One has to ask oneself why America is accepting such a massive inmigration of people who seem to be committed to non-assimilation and sharia. Who benefits, who wants this?
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Yeah, I’m surprised that the GOP is letting in muslims, particularly w/o vetting them for ties to CAIR, Muslim Brotherhood or other shariah-supremacist groups. The Dems are already close to giving them what they want, and muslims who do put the individual above the ummah are already straying outside islamic norms, & don’t need to be appealed to on an islamic basis. Otoh, the GOP is not gonna give muslims more than what the Dems are prepared to give, so no muslim who has islamic interests at heart would – nor should – even look at the GOP
PMK says
GOP needed someone to compete against Ilhan Omar, who represents the 5th district. No non-Muslim can win in that district.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Problem is that if one is a muslim voter in that district, one is already getting what one wants in terms of his/her community’s demands from the Biden administration, and from Ilhan. There is nothing to be gained by switching to the GOP
What percentage of that district are muslim voters? If it’s >50%, GOP should punt on that. If it’s below 50%, the GOP should target the non-muslims in that district

Way back in 2008 Nihad Awad said “Give scholarships,5 years you will have an army of lawyers, POLITICIANS, Journalists, teachers who go to schools, Universities, who can educate people about the history of Islam—the true Islam. Politics is a weapon.
It is about the establishment of the Islamic form of Government.
2019 CAIR’s 25th Gala. Nihad Awad:
“A strong CAIR equals a strong community. A strong community will produce a strong, confident and successful Muslim. So I’m telling you tonight we are going to work in the next years, Inshallah, to elect at least 30 Muslims in congress. This number is equivalent to our size and our potential as American Muslims including at least US Senator Muslims.
In addition Awad envisions Muslim judges and a Justice of the Supreme Court. Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant “
Anybody listening?
R_not says
No one ever brings up the phobia of islam’s ‘god’, (false) ‘prophet’ and the followers of that satanic ideology/deen.
PRCS says
Primarily because so many “filthy unbelievers”–now 22 years post 9/11–still believe the nonsensical notion that Islam is a religion of peace and the oxymoronic “tiny minority of extremists” line.
