You’ll be relieved to know that even as time is running out for the Biden-Harris regime, White House apparatchiks are still hard at work for the American people, dealing with the real problems that affect our day-to-day lives. On Thursday, the regime happily announced the launch of what it billed as “the first-ever U.S. National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia and Anti-Arab Hate.” Now that’s just super, as everyone who knows how important it is for the government to police people’s attitudes and make sure they don’t commit thoughtcrimes, but the initiative, especially coming in these last days of the regime, raises more questions than it answers.The primary question is: why are Biden-Harris wonks launching policy initiatives? Unless the left throws us a massive curve on Jan. 6 or sometime before Jan. 20, which is possible but unlikely, the Biden-Harris regime has just under five weeks left before it is consigned to the dustbin of history. Are five weeks enough to stamp out “Islamophobia,” which the left has been whining about since even before 9/11? Or does the regime intend to give deep state bureaucrats marching orders that it will follow, under the radar, during the incoming Trump administration? Or is the whole thing just grandstanding?
The latter option seems to be the most likely. After all, the 2024 election is over, although votes are still being counted, so there is no further need to court Muslim Arab voters in Michigan and Minnesota anymore. Still, there will be another presidential election, and other elections, and so it’s likely that this new initiative to counter “Islamophobia” is designed to ensure that Muslim voters who are enraged that the regime didn’t abandon Israel altogether stay in the fold.
And so the White House’s new strategy to fight the scourge of “Islamophobia” kicks off with a letter signed by Old Joe himself, claiming that “over the last year, we have experienced a sharp increase in discrimination and violence against Muslim, Arab, and Jewish communities in the United States.” That sounds terrible indeed, but let’s look at the actual record.
The FBI Crime Data Explorer says that there were 265 hate crimes in the past year that were classified as “Anti-Jewish.” This just edged out hate crimes that were “Anti-Black or African American” for the top spot on the hate crimes list; there were 220 of those.
After that, there is a steep drop-off. There were 83 “Anti-Gay (Male)” hate crimes, 79 “Anti-White” hate crimes, and so on. Finishing ninth in the hate crimes standings were “Anti-Islamic (Muslim)” hate crimes, which numbered only 24.
This means that antisemitic attacks are over the past year, when the Biden-Harris regime claims that there has been “a sharp increase in discrimination and violence against Muslim, Arab, and Jewish communities,” there were ten times more frequent than anti-Muslim hate crimes. Add in the twelve “Anti-Arab” hate crimes, and Muslims and Arabs still finish in seventh place, with anti-Jewish hate crimes over seven times more common. And remember, these numbers come from the corrupt and politicized FBI, which would love to show a spike in “Islamophobia” if it could. But it can’t. So why is the regime pretending that “Islamophobia” is a big problem in America today?
Whatever the answer to that question may be, the regime hastens to assure Muslims in the U.S. that they’re rushing to their aid: “The Strategy contains more than 100 Executive Branch Actions and more than 100 Calls to Action to every sector of society to prevent and address such violent attacks and to ensure that Muslim and Arab Americans enjoy the liberties and opportunities that are the bedrock of our country. With this initiative, we are creating a path for progress, in partnership with all levels of government, civil society, and the private sector, both now and over the long term.” Here again, the regime seems to assume that this initiative will continue over the next four years and beyond.
Whatever the significance of that unsettling little fact may be, just for comparison’s sake, the last time the White House issued a “strategy” to combat antisemitism was over seven months ago, on May 7, 2024.
What we have here is yet another Biden-Harris regime inversion of reality. It’s not quite as large as insisting that everyone pretend that Rachel Levine is a woman, but it’s still massive. And if this is implemented, as it very well could be if the deep state prevails over Trump or if his administration is too busy with more pressing matters to stop it, it will have a chilling effect upon any remaining honest discussion of the motivating ideology behind jihad terrorism. The jihadists will then have essentially a free hand, with law enforcement and intelligence officials too frightened of charges of “Islamophobia” to go after them. Celebrate diversity!
It has become increasingly evident that the mindless mantra of “Diversity is our Strength ” is simply not true in the case of mass Migrant Immigration. It was never well thought out. The safety and happiness of lifelong residents and Citizens was never considered. They never asked for a Vote on Immigration Policy from the local residents. Not in Germany, not in France, not in Spain, Italy, Sweden or Canada and certainly not in the United States the most diverse Country in the World. Local elected officials just decided to be “Big Daddy” or in Angela Merkel’s case Big ” Mutti” and took it upon themselves to order the borders thrown open to one and all. Damn the torpedos and full speed ahead ! We all witnessed it…
Language, Culture, Values and Tradition were ignored or dismissed as unimportant and it was simply assumed that peaceful native Europeans would to learn to get along with millions of people who did not share their language, culture or religion, or practice equal rights for women and girls or even share the love of animals that were now butchered in the streets by immigrants. Kumbaya never broke out and the natives no longer feel welcome or respected in their own countries. I wonder if the EU would go back if they could and and rethink this disastrous failure of forced Immigration??? They need only look at Hungary to see how compatible cultures thrive, prosper and succeed. Civilization is fragile and beautiful.
It must be protected and valued above all.
valued and protected above all.
Biden and Harris smoking the Peace Hookah from the Hardline Muslims
First time using Google’s AI tool yesterday, and I asked it about a future war between the CCP and Islam, and how the betting apps might lean.
Here’s one small portion of that response:
“… Technological Advantage & Logistics: The AI correctly identifies China’s potential advantage in technology and logistics. The Belt and Road Initiative is indeed a massive infrastructure project aimed at improving trade and transportation, while China’s military is actively developing advanced weapon systems. The contrast with “camel caravans and hawala networks” highlights a significant disparity in organizational and technological capacity.”
And…
“… Ruthlessness and Nuclear Option: The AI’s assessment (ChatGPT) that the CCP would “have no qualms” about using nuclear weapons if MAD is absent is a grim reflection of how AI models interpret the historical actions of authoritarian regimes. This highlights a key concern about AI: it doesn’t inherently possess a moral compass, but rather analyzes and predicts based on patterns it observes.”
Don’t humans, especially the warlike male of the species, “analyze and predict based on patterns it observes”?
I wanna ask Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, the Grand Ayatollah Poo-Bah, and all the other soldiers of Allah, especially their Hadith “scholars”, if they have ever discussed Muhammed’s knowledge of China.
Did Ai just call muslims camel jockeys??!? Thats hysterical.
To be fair to the AI, caravans of camels don’t necessarily require drivers.
I have hated most Muslims ever since the Olympic Games massacre. This hatred is not criminal.
I realize that there are some Muslims who are decent people. But it is hard to place faith in the good will of Muslims.
There is this history which cannot be denied.
I lived in the Olympic Village when the PLO entered and I was in the building next door to the terrorist on the Balcony with the mask on.
We were all evacuated in the middle of the night as we thought it was a fire.
i was in charge of the Keys for the Olympia Halle, now known as the Sporthalle.
i was in love with a beautiful woman from Tel Aviv and one of the Israeli Athletes was her childhood friend.
She went to pieces and would not stop crying and the Embassy took her back home. Im British and never seen her again.
I cannot find it in my heart to forgive the PLO and I wish them all dead and in Hell.
After January 20th 2025 no one will care what rules against Islamophobia will be implemented, or how many federal “workers” are hired to study DEI, or how many pieces of the Wall are sold off for pennies on the dollar.
Trump will be inaugurated and we will start getting back to normal. Thank God.
Dhimmi leftists are on the way out. “I regret there are no more infidels to be put to the sword. Were it not for the sea, I go West”, lamented the jihad general upon his arrival at Spain’s Atlantic coast in the 7th Century.
The ‘dune clowns’ need to stay in their desert.
Tea Biden-Harris was out of touch coming in to office and is leaving office the same way—out of touch and clueless. Has anyone conducted a poll showing that “Islamophobia” is at the top of the taxpayer’s priority list? No, of course not. Islamophobia is a figment of the woke imagination that still lives on in Biden-Harris.
So maybe there should be more attention to Anti-Jewish hatred? The statistics show that. Now what would be interesting is to see the breakdown of WHO committed the crimes! Who has the most hatred and committed crimes against muslims? against Jews? The answers might just shed some light on a whole different program needed!!
“National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia and Anti-Arab Hate”
– I’m glad someone is finally going to call out Muslim hatred against Arab Christians.
/sarc off
Islamophobia is an unmistakeable indication of sanity.
So when is the Biden-Harris regime going to enact a program to combat Judeophobia? And Christophobia? Why stop at just one religion when all three major religions make people fearful?
The first problem with this “strategy” and the whole concept of “Islamophobia” is the name: a “phobia” is a “fear of”, as in “hydrophobia” = fear of water, that is, you are afraid of it, you don’t want to go near it. But people aren’t “afraid” of Islam in that sense; they just regard it as a danger to our values and our way of life–something quite different. As with fire, I don’t have “firephobia”, but I recognize that fire is a danger and I need to take steps to make sure my house is protected, etc. Misuse of terms like this can only have one objective: propaganda, to demonize people and make them do or say things that you want them to do or say.
“ISLAMOPHOBIA ” is a word created entirely by the Muslim Brotherhood for the purpose of establishing themselves as a persecuted “RELIGIOUS MINORITY” in the US and other western countries and to increase the so-called “WHITE GUILT”.
Frankly, I’m out of White Guilt about anything since the BLM fiasco and the current rash of AntiSemitism coming out of our taxpayer funded Colleges and spreading like wildfire and making heroes of of Oct 7 savages. The perpetrators of this upheaval are the same old Hate America Crowd under different names, who are only too happy to tear down the United States and use our sacred Rights against us. They should know it’s all America First now,… new Sheriff’s in town. And he’s backed up by 77 million patriotic Americans who want PEACE. !
It’s about the money. Five weeks isn’t enough time to move policy but an amazing amount of money can be moved in that much time. If Israel was sitting on oceans of money in any form, oil, minerals, or simple cash, antisemitism would be an issue. It’s not so it’s not. How those pushing money out the door will benefit, I don’t know, but benefit they will. It’s always about the money.
No, anti Semitism would not be the issue if Israel had oil! I think you muss the point of the deranged hatred. Israel has. wealth of tech savvy, military prowess to teach, and brain power. No one cares. They hate Israel anyway because they think they can and they like doing it it….a lot.
Hate is an aphrodisiac when the target is Jews.
You misread. Restated, if Israel were rich, more people would care about antisemitism. Antisemitism will happen either way, money simply changes the reaction to it by others.
Where is the campaign to combat Islamopandering?
