Rep. Ford claims that “current school history teaching leads to white privilege and a racist society.” Meleika Gardner of We Will says: “Miseducation has fed and continues to feed systemic racism for generations.

Palestinian-American Congressional Candidate Loses Big in Illinois’ ‘Little Palestine’ District
Palestinian-American Rashad “Rush” Darwish was the first Muslim Palestinian to run for elected office in Illinois’ 3rd congressional district, an area comprising Chicago’s southern suburbs and “Little Palestine,” where thousands of Palestinian-Americans live and work.

Chicago: Islamic preacher blames Jews for coronavirus and warns Muslims to arm themselves against neighbors
One of Chicago’s most notorious anti-Semites has responded to the COVID-19 outbreak in a despicable manner: by blaming Jews and encouraging Muslims to arm themselves against their neighbors.

The Jihad Attacks on Churches in Illinois That You Heard Nothing About
My latest in PJ Media: Osama E. El Hannouny, a 25-year-old man who lives in the Chicago suburb of Palos Hills, Illinois, has made his prejudices very clear, saying that he doesn’t like Christians.

What motivated freshman Representative Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) to come all the way to Chicago to support Abdelnasser Rashid, a candidate for a local office at the Cook County Board of Review? A member of an ultra-progressive clique of junior lawmakers known as “the Squad,” Tlaib traveled to Illinois on March 1 to be the “special […]
Illinois: Circuit Judge candidate tied to groups with history of links to Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas
On February 25, the Chicago Tribune endorsed the president of the Muslim Bar Association of Illinois, Dr. Azam Nizamuddin, the Democratic candidate for the position of Circuit Judge in Dupage County, Illinois.

Illinois: Muslim leader says “Allah will grant us the Caliphate….Under its leadership, Rome will be conquered”
What are the chances that Taiseer Hussein and his followers will be loyal, patriotic American citizens? “We were with Allah’s Messenger in an expedition that there came a people to Allah’s Apostle from the direction of the west. They were dressed in woollen clothes and they stood near a hillock and they met him as […]
Illinois: Muslim slashes tires of 19 cars at churches, explains he did it because he doesn’t like Christians
You will only hear about this here, because it doesn’t fit the establishment media narrative of Muslims being subjected to wholesale discrimination and harassment by Christians in the U.S. “Alleged Tire Slasher Had Hate Motive Against Christians: Police,” WBBM, January 9, 2020: PALOS HILLS (WBBM NEWSRADIO) — Charges have been upgraded against a man who […]

My latest in PJ Media: It could be a whole new trend, drug dealers against blasphemy: Jason Brown, according to the Associated Press, is the “37-year-old leader of the AHK gang,” and “could be heard on secret FBI recordings speaking admiringly about beheadings by the Islamic State group.” Brown, also known as Abdul Ja’Me, said […]
Chicago: Man converts to Islam, studies bomb-making, promises jihad massacre “once I get my gun and explosive belt”
From whom did Thomas Osadzinski learn about Islam? Where did he go to mosque? Is that mosque being investigated?

Illinois: Muslim who asked Allah to “take over and destroy” casino was “misunderstood”
Of course! The ever-trusty “out of context” defense! He really meant that he hoped Allah would shower the casino with blessings. In reality, this was a real threat, even though he said he would ask Allah to destroy the casino; he didn’t say he would do it himself. The Qur’an, however, says “Fight them, and […]
Chicago: Islamic scholar says “Israel is supporting ISIS because it is supporting Israeli agenda”
It is not surprising that Omar Baloch would see Israel behind everything he dislikes, no matter how preposterous his resulting claims. The Qur’an says that the Jews are the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s […]

“On Feb. 12, Muadinov made alarming statements, was detained, demanded police take him to their leader and said if he didn’t meet with President Donald Trump, ‘we would all meet Allah,’ according to the affidavit.” Will this be dismissed as mental illness, as in so many other cases?

“In 2013, Taha republished a photo on his Facebook page, ostensibly of a brutally killed Egyptian teenage boy, which was accompanied by the text: ‘O Muslim, O servant of God.

Illinois: Men convert to Islam, plot jihad mass murder, talk of dropping gays from Sears Tower
Where did Joseph D. Jones and Edward Schimenti learn about Islam? Has their local mosque been investigated?

Chicago: New Muslim group with “partners from diverse faiths” dominated by pro-jihad, anti-Israel voices
It is certain that none of the IL Muslim Civic Coalition’s “partners from diverse faiths, races, and communities” will take any notice whatsoever of any of this, and will continue their partnerships, knowing that any other course of action would open them up to charges of “Islamophobia.” “New Islamist Group in Chicago Dominated by Radical […]
Illinois: Muslim who fired multiple shots at vehicle, injuring a woman driving by, flees to Saudi Arabia
The Saudis have a longstanding practice of spiriting Saudi citizens accused of crimes in the United States (and Canada) out of this country.

But the U.S. government should realize that whatever the pragmatic considerations may be for continuing the sham alliance with Saudi Arabia, this […]
