“Canadian Muslims are once again forced to apologize for something they had nothing to do with, that according to one imam who says other faith groups aren’t held to the same standards.” This is just an attempt to obscure the real issue. It’s true: no one should expect Muslims in Canada or anywhere else to […]
Ohio Muslim leaders: No “radicalization” in Columbus, worried about girls in hijabs getting stared at
“And a number of Somali leaders said they have worked diligently to combat Islamic radicalization messages aimed at younger members of their community. ‘We have not seen so far any single case in which we would be concerned that there is something happening,’ said Zerqa Abid, president of MY Project USA, a Columbus-based youth organization […]
NPR: “Muslim Community Fears Backlash After Ohio State Attack”
Here we go again. A Muslim attacked and wounded non-Muslims at Ohio State University, and you know what that means as far as the establishment propaganda media is concerned: Muslims are victims. NPR is quick out of the box with this Muslims-are-the-true-victims piece, whining about an anti-Muslim “backlash” that seldom, if ever, materializes after Islamic […]
CAIR worries about “backlash” after Minnesota mall jihad, governor calls for “religious tolerance”
A Muslim stabbed nine non-Muslims in a Minnesota mall, and you know what that means as far as the mainstream media is concerned: Muslims are victims. Hamas-linked CAIR has been quick to claim victim status, whining about an anti-Muslim “backlash” that seldom, if ever, materializes after Islamic jihad attacks. And Minnesota’s governor is calling for […]
UK’s Express: Muslims fear backlash as Eid falls on September 11
“MUSLIMS fear they could be targeted in violent attacks as the holy day of Eid could fall on 11 September for the first time since 9/11.” How likely is it that Muslims celebrated Eid will be the victims of violent attacks? Extremely unlikely, but the mainstream media is forever preoccupied with an “anti-Muslim backlash” that […]
Germans no longer welcoming of Muslim refugees
Yesterday Jihad Watch reported on a study conducted in Ontario, Canada (the biggest mass settlement area). It found that Ontarians regretted the indiscriminate welcoming of Muslim refugees, on the grounds that the refugees’ values are incompatible with Western values. Leftists were quick to call Ontarians Islamophobic. Well, now a similar study was just conducted in […]
Washington Post: Muslims in Orlando afraid, some have been yelled at
“In the Fort, as many call this old Army post, some Muslims last week prayed in an unmarked building, while others worshiped at another nearby mosque where some recent passersby yelled ‘Murderers!’ Sheriff’s and police cars have been patrolling outside both.” That’s a shame. Those passersby are boorish. But what of the fact that the […]
President of Orlando jihadi’s mosque says he fears “retribution,” lies about Mateen’s attendance there
“For several years, Mateen regularly attended the Islamic Center of Fort Pierce and was there as recently as two days ago, said Imam Shafiq Rahman on Sunday.” So reported the Washington Post on June 12. And today, the Washington Post adds in a new report: “Last Friday, June 10, Mateen went to the Fort Pierce […]
Florida officials invite Muslim cleric to address media “to preempt a possible backlash against the Muslim community”
And Imam Muhammad Musri of the Islamic Society of Central Florida warned against “sensationalizing” the story. Immediately the mainstream media and government and law enforcement officials have as their top priority of protecting Islam from criticism or scrutiny. Their kneejerk response to every jihad massacre is to regard Muslims as its victims, rather than scrutinize […]
That “Low-Level Hum”? It May Be Your Conscience.
Suspicion of Islam is not a bad thing. It is a sign of moral, mental and spiritual health. Especially when it comes from among Muslims. In the recent story, “Backlash from Brussels terrorism frustrates Muslims in Maine,” by Matt Byrne, Portland Press Herald, one of the Muslims interviewed, Ahmed Abdiraham, described a “low-level hum of […]
Maine: Muslims “frustrated” by “backlash” after Brussels jihad massacre
What backlash? Muslims attacked? Mosques burned? Laws passed barring Muslims from entering airports? No. Actually, there has been no backlash at all: “violence against Maine’s estimated 6,000 Muslims has not been a serious problem.” So where’s the backlash? Why, one Muslim says that “the anger and hostility displayed nationally during the political campaign season eventually […]
USA Today: “It’s already been a rough few months for Belgian Muslims”
How about Belgian non-Muslims? How are they doing? “It’s already been a rough few months for Belgian Muslims in the wake of November’s terror attacks in Paris and the search for suspects in Belgium: lockdowns, increased security and raids on homes. Now, in the wake of the country’s deadliest terror attacks on Tuesday, Muslims who […]
International Business Times: “Muslims Fear Backlash After Brussels Attack”
This is a typical “backlash” story, of the kind that invariably appears after a jihad attack or foiled jihad plot. It attempts to deflect attention away from the jihad terror and onto Muslims as victims, their religion unfairly demonized. One bad apple shouldn’t be taken as spoiling the bunch, we’re told. The real problem is […]
Reuters: “Muslim Americans fear demonization of Islam after mass shooting”
This is a typical “backlash” story, of the kind that invariably appears after a jihad attack or foiled jihad plot. It attempts to deflect attention away from the jihad terror and onto Muslims as victims, their religion unfairly demonized. One bad apple shouldn’t be taken as spoiling the bunch, we’re told. “Two people’s actions do […]
Satanists reach out to Muslims in U.S. who fear “backlash”
This is peculiarly fitting: Muslims who described themselves as lovers of death, screaming out about the superiority of their god, brutally murdered well over 100 people in Paris, in accord with commands they imbibed from their prophet and holy book. Then other Muslims began complaining about a non-existent “backlash,” so as to shift focus away […]
Hamas-linked CAIR complains of post-Paris anti-Muslim “backlash”
Islamic supremacist groups such as the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) want and need hate crimes against Muslims, because they’re the currency they use to buy power and influence in our victimhood-oriented society, and to deflect attention away from jihad terror and onto Muslims as putative victims. Hamas-linked CAIR, designated a terror organization by the […]
LA Times: Muslims in France fear reprisals after Paris jihad massacre
This is always the mainstream media preoccupation after a jihad attack: portraying Muslims as victims of a generally nonexistent “backlash.” There is always a steady stream of articles like this one after every fresh jihad murder, and never, ever any articles about Muslim communities redoubling their efforts to show themselves to be loyal citizens and […]
New York Times: Mosque of Chattanooga jihad killer braces for backlash
Ihsan Bagby, an associate professor of Islamic studies at the University of Kentucky, spoke of “the shock that there’s a kid who seems to grow up in the shadow of the Muslim community and yet chooses a path of extremism and violence that nobody taught them in the community. It’s a betrayal of the community.” […]
St. Louis KMOV: “Local Muslims face possible backlash after terror indictments”
The pattern never changes: in the wake of a jihad terror attack or plot, Muslims in the West do not do what they should do: redouble their efforts against jihadis in their own communities, and their cooperation with law enforcement officials. Instead, they claim that they are being victimized by a “backlash” and try to […]
Tens of thousands tweet #illridewithyou hashtag over cafe jihad backlash fears
“Reprisal attacks are something that should not happen.” Indeed so. They should not happen, and for the most part they don’t. Jihad attacks are also something that should not happen. Where are the Muslims offering to ride with Infidels in order to defend them against other Muslims who may wish to bomb them, behead them, […]
