Ageism – The Left Wants to Politisize Age and Divide Us Even More

Another day, another grievance manufacturing from the Neo-Marxist Left!

Here is the extended audio version of this commentary on The Islamophobia Watch Podcast: https://anchor.fm/islamophobiawatch/episodes/Ageism—The-Left-Wants-to-Politisize-Age-and-Divide-Us-Even-More-engrsp

“Ageism” seems to be the latest move of the woke culture which is adding yet another ingredient to the Marxist soup of fake grievances they use to entice new followers.

As of “racism” wasn’t enough, here comes “ageism”.

What’s ageism, you might ask. Exactly. Another made up label, another lever in the ever-evolving machine of identity politics.

That’s right, the woke Neo-Marxist Left isn’t sitting around doing nothing.

I assume soon everyone who dislikes their nose, hair type, ear shape, or size of genitalia, will be able to join the ranks of the offended in the Army of the Perpetual Victimhood.

Back to “agism”. The woke Left is working hard to get young people to have a grievance over the fact that older people at work don’t pay them enough respect in the work place.

Are you serious?

Yup.

Young and feeling not respected enough by those older at work, can get you a spot right next to BLM
types ready to torch cities and tear down statues of America’s founding fathers.

You might even get cozy with the “tolerant” LGBTQ division that loves to hate. Not to be forgotten – there’s the Burka-flaunting, praying-five-times-a-day-at-their-workplace Muslims, and who knows who else. It’s hard to keep up with the constantly growing list of grievances the Left manufactures all the time.

One Emma Waldman for example is offering advise to the “victimized” youth over at the Harvard Business Review: https://hbr.org/2020/11/gg-ascend-pub-11-11-how-old-is-old-enough

Here is GlassDoor virtue signaling, too.

Tension between people from different generations has existed since time began. All kinds of books, operas and movies have been made through the ages looking into this ever-present social dynamic.

There is no formula how relationships between people from different generations can be resolved. As times change, the approach to these dynamics changes, too. Then there are unique cultural frameworks that play part in this as well.

But no, leave it to the Left to politicize EVERY aspect of human life. And by politicizing I mean dividing. That’s what the Left does. They divide and sow enmity because their agenda absolutely needs people feeling angry, bitter and entitled.

Muslim endorsed Minnesota Democrat: “F*ck Hugo, Minnesota!”

John Thompson is running for the Minnesota House District 67A and just won the August 11, 2020 Democrat primaries.

Thompson has been endorsed by the Democrat Governor of Minnesota Tim Walz and other Democrat politicians including Betty McCollum. The Somali Hoda Hassan has called him “my brother”. Why is she calling him “my brother”? Is he a Muslim?

Thompson’s campaign website also shows a picture of him and Keith Ellison, another high-profile Minnesota Muslim.

Recently John Thompson picketed the home of Lt. Bob Kroll, President of the Minneapolis Police Federation. In his racist rant laced with obscenities, he went as fast as calling Bob Kroll “a grand wizard” and “a klansman”, ending it with “if the people in Hugo, Minnesota won’t support black people, fuck Hugo, Minnesota”. A Black Lives Matter has threatened that they will harass Lt. Bob Kroll and his family by picketing his home again in the future.

Here’s the same meltdown from another angle – the whole thing! That’s one angry thug right there. Will the Democrats withdraw their endorsements of him?

The Republican candidate for 67A John Stromenger has no web presence and doesn’t seem to be a serious challenger, which almost but guarantees the Black Lives Matter activist John Thompson a win in the November 2020 Minnesota elections. The Minnesota Democrat Party is becoming more radicalized with each election with more radical leftist and islamist candidates entering races, advancing to elections, and winning seats.

The confessions of a hijabi Muslima reveal deep psychological trauma

A Muslim woman raised in a strict sharia observant Muslim family has revealed some of the mental and emotional torment Muslim women are subjected to since the time they are little. Her confessions and cries for help were published on Reddit. It’s heartbreaking to realize millions of girls around the world are subjected to psychological, emotional, social and even physical denigration through the oppressive demand of forcing women to wear the hijab since they are little.

This is what the nameless Muslima had to say about her experience of taking the hijab off in public for the first time since she was a kid.

I took my hijab off for a day and don’t know how to feel

I was raised in a very strict Islamic upbringing and have been wearing the hijab for 11 years (since I was 12). I also used to be amongst those who judged non-hijabis hard “for not following Allah’s commandments”. I never thought in a million years I would ever take it off. I did strongly believe in the hijab and there was a point I loved wearing it, but recently after reading more into it I’m starting to believe it’s not mandatory. I’m still very confused on this issue on whether it’s obligatory or not, so I decided to try taking it off for one day. The entire basis of my upbringing was almost based on the hijab so it’s something I had to think about for a long time.

But I’m having a lot of mixed feelings towards this experience of taking it off and frankly don’t know what to make of it. I thought that by doing this I’ll get some sort of clarity on this issue I’ve been struggling with for a while and that by the end of it, I’ll know which path is right for me. But I’m still just as confused.

Today, I decided to go out without my hijab. Before so, I asked God to guide me on this issue, and that by the end of it I’ll get some clarity. To be honest, I didn’t know what I was expecting. Getting out of the car, it was pretty surreal. One thing that shocked me was the wind blowing in my hair. I haven’t felt that since I was a child. It felt so nice. There were women passing by, and I felt more like one of them – a normal person; me being me. I went to workout, people were friendly as usual. I didn’t feel like anything changed and in fact, I felt like I blended in more to the background and that people didn’t perceive me as much. This felt weird but also really nice.

Afterwards, I went grocery shopping. Going through the aisles, no one really gave me the time of day (not that I expected them to?). For some reason, I thought I would be treated better but it was more of the same. I realized that I was feeling SUPER self conscious. I tried speaking to a worker and I couldn’t even make eye contact when usually I’ll be confident. I think I was a bit ashamed to be me.

There were moments where I just wanted to cry from the realization that other women were allowed to live so “free” (I hate using that word). At the same time, the hijab did give me a sense of identity, something that represents my faith (in today’s world), and allowed me to feel accepted in my family/Muslim community. But my hijab has been policed so much. In fact right before I went out, my Dad commented that “some of my neck was showing and to fear God” (I put the hijab on before I went out, my parents would go ballistic if they found out) which…made me so sad.

I don’t know why I’m writing this, but I’m trying to make sense of this experience. I still don’t know what to do going forward. I am incredibly scared that I’m off the right path and condemned to hell, but I also feel like I’m right where I’m supposed to be. The hijab is such a minuscule issue, but for some reason the relationship with my parents/community depends on it. At this point I don’t know what to make of everything.

Here Ex-Muslim Anni Cyrus describes her experience being forced to wear the hijab as a 9-year-old in Iran.

Yasmine Mohammed, a former hijabi Muslima, talks to Ridvan Aydemir, a.k.a. “Apostate Prophet”, about No Hijab Day and everything that’s wrong with the hijab.

Saudi Arabia demands the U.N. to “eliminate” Islamophobia

The government of Saudi Arabia has now officially jumped on the Islamophobia bandwagon. Perhaps because they see how well this propaganda is working.

The Saudis have now asked the United Nations to start “eliminating” Islamophobia. Yes, to “eliminate” Islamophobia! In light of this it behooves us to take a look at how Saudi Arabia itself is ranking when it comes to human rights.

In Saudi Arabia there is a law in place since 2007 that will prosecute individuals who use the internet to spread racism and hatred. The fines are up to one year in jail, over 130,000 dollars in fines, or both.

What can we say, except that the Saudis have once again proven what we have been saying for a long time.

Muslims are shameless!

The Saudis are one of the worst violators of human rights in the world. It is safe to say that there is no religious freedom in Saudi Arabia whatsoever. Here you can read the 2018 Department of State Saudi Arabia report. It basically says that Saudi Arabia is governed by Sharia Law. Sharia Law means Islamic supremacy. Muslims have all the rights, the infidel has the right to put up with being treated like a dog, or worse.

“Slay the unbelievers wherever ye find them…”
The Quran, Verse 9:5

We’ll just leave it at that, and we’ll let you decide what such shamelessness tells you about Muslims today.

Mali Jihadist who murdered and raped blacks cast as “fighter” by the Left

The trial of one Al Hassan Ag Abdoul Aziz Ag Mohamed Ag Mahmoud, a well-known jihadist from Mali who was part of the Al-Queda invasion of Timbuktu during the Obama era (2012), has begun. The International Criminal Court in the Hague committed him to trial in September of 2019 finding sufficient grounds for prosecution of Ag Mahmoud for crimes against humanity between April 2012 and January 2013: Torture, rape, sexual slavery, other inhumane acts, including, inter alia, forced marriages, persecution, intentionally directing attacks against buildings dedicated to religion and historic monuments.

It’s remarkable to see how The Guardian coverage whitewashes Al Hassan’s image but this is hardly a surprise. The Guardian’s Jason Burke refers to the jihadist simply as “an extremist fighter”. Perhaps Mr. Burke has met many “moderate fighters” around the world? Calling Al Hassan a “jihadist” is obviously unthinkable when it comes to the Guardian which has earned itself the well deserved reputation of a mouthpiece for the Left.

Why is the Left always busy with whitewashing the public image of Islam and global jihad? It most probably has to do with the fact that the Left is an essential partner in the Red-Green Axis defined by the Center for Security Policy as “an ad hoc collaboration among global forces whose common objective is the destruction of Western Civilization”, the forces being the Marxist left (the “Red”) and the global Islamic Movement (the “Green”). To learn more about the Red-Green Axis, check out Jim Simpson’s book “The Red-Green Axis 2.0: An Existential Threat to America and the World”

Back to the Mali jihadist story. Nowhere in the entire article does Mr. Burke even mention the word jihad. The pictures of the jihadist have been carefully curated and show him in a suit, looking like just another guy in his 40s wearing a suit. After all, we’re all flawed human beings right? Well, some of us get little carried away and rape, murder, mutilate, torture and force women into sexual slavery in the name of Islam. But hey, look at him, he’s just a normal looking guy, right?

Wrong.

Based on court documents Al Hassan was in fact the chief of the Islamic Sharia Police and Islamic Sharia Court: murdering, raping, forcing women into sexual slavery, and passing “sentences” while in power. All of which was done in accordance with and in the name of Islam! Which is what Muslims have been doing in the name of Islam since Islam’s inception in the 7th century.

But let’s not sound so “islamophobic”! Phobia from what? Islam? The ideology that was the sole reason this jihadi in Mali to rape, murder, torture and chop a few hands? Oh, let’s not exaggerate now. Some people did some things. That’s all. Not a big deal. There aren’t more than 7% of Muslims who are “extremists” and subscribe to the traditional jihadist form of Islam. That would be only over 100 million such fellas plotting day in and day out how to perpetrate on us Shaira “law” through terror.

What’s there to be Islamophobic about?

To the Guardian as a good leftist publication the jihadists are only “extremists”. Which is simply another way to push the idea that there’s nothing wrong with Islam itself, it’s just that “few extremists” have taken it a bit too far.

Coverage of the exact same story looks very different from the website of the French press agency AFP. Al Hassan is called a jihadist in the very headline as well as several other times in the news article itself. It is the AFP coverage the majority of African news sources have chosen to cite. Media outlets in Sub-Saharan Africa aren’t mincing words when it comes to Islam and Jihad. People there know way too well what Islam has been doing to them for centuries. Al Hassan is pictured in his Islamic garb, clearly showing his real identity as a Muslim.

It’s worth noting that France has officially banned Islamic head coverings in public. France was the first European country in modern times to ban public wearing of the full-face veil. A Muslim woman challenged this law in the European Court of Human Rights but the Court upheld the law and it remains the law of the land to this day. In 2011 Belgium adopted a similar ban. In Spain, the city of Barcelona and some other towns have brought in similar bans, as have some towns in Italy. No such general ban applies in the UK.

Al Hassan is only the second jihadist to appear before the ICC in the Hague. His case is however the first one to include charges of crimes typical of jihad throughout history, among which:

Rape
Torture
Islamic executions
Sexual slavery

“Al Hassan played an essential and undeniable role in the system of persecution established by the armed groups… in Timbuktu,” ICC chief prosecutor Fatou Bensouda said last year.

The jihadist police imposed draconian measures on the city’s residents who lived in constant fear of “despicable” violence and repression, prosecutors said.

They cited an example in which a man had his hand amputated after he was accused of petty theft.

Why is the Left so hard at work on behalf of their partners, the jihadists? Why don’t they want us to hear about what Sharia Law is all about and what happens to the “infidels” when Muslims take Islam’s doctrines literally? Could it be because this is exactly what the likes of HAMAS d.b.a. CAIR are all about? When the jihadists remove their suits, there’s a suicide vest strapped on each one of them. Which is why the Left is so diligent to alter the public perception of Islam and global jihad. The Left needs the numbers that Muslims can offer. The Muslims need the Left to legitimize the in the West.
We’ll keep you posted on new developments surrounding this historic case. Our analysis will always dissect the tactics of the Red-Green Axis, pointing you to relevant resources in an effort to help you understand better what this current civilization conflict between Islam and the free world.

Somali government official appointed in Minnesota government by Walz!

On June 15 a Somali website called the Sahan Journal informed the world that one Anisa Hajimumin has been appointed to lead “a new state office”. Appears as if Anisa will be an “assistant commissioner for immigrant and refugee affairs”. Thanks to this report by KSTP from February 2020, it becomes clear that Anisa will be getting paid up to $142,000 a year.

From the Sahan post we learn that Anisa is a gender studies and creative writing Hamling graduate who somehow became “an entrepreneur and an activist”. No word what her “entrepreneurship” was about. Oh wait, we do know. Thanks to this Wikipedia page we learn that she worked as a paralegal and then founded some NGO…a non-profit called “Hajimumin & Associates”, focused on designing workshops for youth development and women’s empowerment. And there you have it! That’s a nice entrepreneurial story, isn’t it? I’m sure the financials of the non-profit will be a very interesting part of the story to look into. Maybe later.

Now to all of you islamophobes, you must be tempted to think “What in the world is going on here?”

Stop! Don’t you think for a minute you can use your brain to weigh in on what makes sense in this story and what doesn’t. There’s a higher cause here, don’t you get it, infidel? We’re fighting Islamophobia here in Minnesota. How inappropriate of you to try to do the math…to think “wait I thought entrepreneur meant someone who creates economic activity and value”? See, this is your barbaric, profit-obsessed, capitalist pig mind working now. Anisa has shown us a higher way to higher income. Watch and learn!

While managing her NGO and being an activist, Anisa managed to also write a book about Somali women and their issues.

Wait, women issues where, in Somalia? Or in America? Most probably in Somalia because this same woman, Anisa, now under a different last name: Haj Mumin, was in fact appointed as an official in the Somali government in 2014! Her position? She was the Minister of Women Affairs!

No word on how long she served as the Minister of Women Affairs in Somalia. Is she still an acting minister? What did she achieve while in office there? Minnesota media should be asking these questions. As usual they aren’t.

Are you getting the picture islamophobes?

This individual was born in Somalia, lived in Minnesota long enough to graduate gender studies (supposedly), became a paralegal, became the founder of a non-profit (we’ll look into the non-profit later), then a minister in the Somalia government as recent as 2014. Six years later this same woman is appointed in Minnesota government by the Walz administration with a $142,000 annual salary to basically teach third world transplants how to work the system. After all she is a shining example of how you can be a minister in the Somali government and in the Minnesota government.

She seems to be as good as Ilhan “Omar” Elmi. In fact the next logical step for would be Minnesota politics. After all, someone needs to fight even harder for all these oppressed minorities who suffer terrible racism and Islamophobia in Minnesota.

Isn’t this clear as day from the story you just read?

Mosques must be turned into churches – lessons from Turkey!

The pro-jihadist Emperor of Turkey, Erdogan, has ordered the museum Hagia Sophia to be turned into a functioning mosque again. The mosque was originally built as a Christian church in the 6th century AD to be the main church of the Eastern Roman Empire’s capital city Constantinople. It was considered the largest dome in the world for 1,000 years.

In 1453 Constantinople fell and the church was converted into a mosque.

But hey, don’t be an ‘islamophobe’! It’s okay for churches to be converted to mosques. However, mosques cannot be converted to churches under no circumstances. That would be ‘islamophobic’, right? Or at least this is how the jihadists would want us to feel about their plan to islamize the world. They want Western people to obsess about ‘tolerance’, even while killing Christians and Jews in the name of the ‘religion of peace’.

Kemal Ataturk, the founder of the Republic of Turkey, converted The Hagia Sophia mosque into a museum as a gesture of good will to Christians. There are thousands of mosques in Istanbul where Muslims can pray. Thus, converting the mosque into a museum was a symbolic act of ending the era of the caliphate and putting the jihadist past behind Turkey.

Now a Turkish court has reversed this 1934 decision and the museum will begin functioning as a mosque once again. Clearly this is again a symbolic act showing the return of Islam as a world power.

But hey, don’t be Islamophobic! And remember Islam isn’t an ideology, it’s only a ‘religion’. So rest assured, this reviving of a museum into a mosque is nothing to be worried about. Because as we know Islam is the religion of ‘peace’. Except if you refuse to submit to it, of course. Then it becomes the religion of bloodshed and terror.

The AP reports: “There was jubilation outside the terracotta-hued structure with its cascading domes and four minarets. Dozens of people awaiting the court’s ruling chanted “Allah is great!” when the news broke. A large crowd later prayed outside it. In the capital of Ankara, legislators stood and applauded as the decision was read in Parliament.”

But don’t worry, there’s nothing to see here. Just some jihadists in suites chanting Allahu Akbar. But don’t be an islamophobe. The media said so.

Now here’s a curious thought – what would happen if we began to convert mosques into churches? An uproar from the Left? Accusations of “racism”? One has to wonder just how far are people in the West are willing to go before they wake up and realize this is war and we’re currently losing it as it is.

Muslims are rejecting Islam all over the world – are they ‘islamophobes’?

Islam teaches Muslims to murder those who leave Islam. The sheer terror and brutality of Islam is causing a tidal wave of apostasy now that information is more accessible through the Internet.

The below are only some of the verses in the Quran, the Hadith and the Sira clearly showing that Muhammad murdered apostates and Islam teaches Muslims to do the same even to this day.

Quran (4:89) – “They wish that you reject Faith, as they have rejected (Faith), and thus that you all become equal (like one another). So take not Auliya’ (protectors or friends) from them, till they emigrate in the Way of Allah (to Muhammad). But if they turn back (from Islam), take (hold) of them and kill them wherever you find them, and take neither Auliya’ (protectors or friends) nor helpers from them.”

Hadith & Sira:

Sahih Bukhari (52:260) – “…The Prophet said, ‘If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him.’ “
Sahih Bukhari (83:37) – “Allah’s Apostle never killed anyone except in one of the following three situations: (1) A person who killed somebody unjustly, was killed (in Qisas,) (2) a married person who committed illegal sexual intercourse and (3) a man who fought against Allah and His Apostle and deserted Islam and became an apostate.”
Sahih Bukhari (84:57) – [In the words of] “Allah’s Apostle, ‘Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him.'”
Sahih Bukhari (89:271) – A man who embraces Islam, then reverts to Judaism is to be killed according to “the verdict of Allah and his apostle.”
