#WaPo "Fact Checks" Omar's words. #TDS prevents them realizing that the Longer Clip is more damning that the edited clip.

The Washington Post “Fact” “Checker” claims that I “clipped Ilhan Omar’s video, then took it out of context.” They played the clipped version, and a longer clipped version, and guess what? They proved my point once again.

It wasn’t taken out of context. https://t.co/QeiGF8jh89

President Trump's travel ban lowered the number of refugees admitted into the United States to 50,000 and suspended refugee entry from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen.

YES!!! The best move he's made so far. The only problem is that Pakistan and Qatar should be added.

$5 says she never cried over 9/11.

The Media refuses to report that her Father was a diplomat for the Said Barre Marxist Regime of Somalia, that was overthrown by the Warlords. She is both an Islamist AND a Socialist... only that he was a "Government Worker".

I also seriously doubt they lived in a refugee camp de facto, just on paper.

She hates this country, that means she lied to the judge at oath ceremony during naturalization process. This is the proof that the vetting process failed.

Muslims are forbidden from being loyal to any non-Muslim government:

It's just hate. And that's sad. Hate is suffering for the hater.

May be ok for a regular folks but not OK for the person with power who turns against USA, like Patrick (#7) mentioned, they are not loyal to the host country. She is a living proof. Duh!

I've got way more fear of Christian Republicans taking my freedoms away than a couple of Muslims.

A Perfect Match: The Sultan of Brunei and Mike Pence

One of the curiosities of our political scene is the sturm und drang [turmoil and more] when the words “Sharia Law” is uttered.

Up bubbles anti-Muslim, anti-Islamic prejudice, white supremacists awaken in a 50-mile radius, the clicks of AK-47s can be heard, Confederate flags are unfurled and the fumes of truck exhaust are in the air. Aaah, the sound of Spring!

Trump and his despoilers have not only opened the door to rail against Muslims, he’s made it a sanctioned hunting sport among a certain group of frightened, armed, xenophobes who define patriotism as cleansing the country, to enforce racial, ethnic and religious purity. This is a neo-Crusade and it is being led by factions of the holier-than-thou Republicans who wrap themselves in Christianity. It is an old religious war revisited.

Deeds done in the name of [any] religion carry credibility and importance. But religious beliefs have been co-opted and corrupted and the toxins that leech from the bigot in the Oval has trickled down to his Congressional minions and handmaidens who seem unaware of just how contaminated they’ve become.

They are the new anti-abortion, anti-contraception, anti-gay, morality police from the Mike Pence School of Biblical Hearsay. Pence will not even take a business meeting, not a lunch or a dinner with an unaccompanied woman whether she’s Speaker of the House, a Senator or a CEO.

Pence is the science-denier who wants to return to the moon in five years. I wonder how far he’ll get without science? Just click you heels together three times, Dorothy…

Yes, he is the flag-bearer of the Unevolved Capitol Neanderthals. This group includes women too. Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos is a strong proponent of conversion therapy—a voodoo practice (banned by the medical establishment) that believes homosexuals can be cured of their “affliction” and ultimately “straightened” out.

Enter Hassanal Bolkiah, the Sultan of Brunei, who just enacted extreme ultra-conservative punishments to the penal code of his country. Adultery and gay sex will be met with death by stoning. Drug users face a similar fate. Apostasy, abandonment or renunciation of the Muslim faith, could result in amputation or death.

Come to think of it, despite the boogyman curse that Republicans attach to “Sharia Law,” they seem to be practicing a bleached version of the same thing!

Do you really fear/hate all these people?


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_American_Muslims

Missing from the list of American Muslims:

Syed Farook
Omar Mateen
Louis Farrakhan
John Muhammed Allen
Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnev
Zaim Farouq Abdul-Malik (Subway Axe Attack on NYPD)
Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi (Curtis Culwell Center Mohammed Cartoon Terrorists)
Sayfullo Habibullaevich Saipov (Manhattan Palestinian-Style Pedestrian Rammer)
Akayed Ullah (Suicide Bombing attempt in NY Subway)
Kori Ali Muhammad (Fresno Shootings, Multiple Murders in previous crimes. Kalifate-ornia claimed it was Mental disorder, though he only killed Whites and was a Muslim)

And many, many more. This is only an assortment of the past 3-4 years, and not all of those.

I swear if someone shoots her in the face, the verdict should be "someone did something" (aka not guilty).

Here's one I bumped into. Alexander Bonds, Anti-Cop, Black Supremacist

Attacked Cops with Brass Knuckles in 2001, Armed Robbery, Killed Inmates, Somehow Freed, then Killed a Cop.
https://heavy.com/news/2017/07/john-alexander-bonds-nypd-officer-cop-shot-killed-suspect-photos-ambush-attack/

Check out his shirt, Cracker. "When yoos lock me up for Armed Robbery and Sheiit, y'alls oppressing the African King."

I love Omar. Every week or so she says something batshit crazy, and each week the Dem Leadership has to "Contextualize" it. Eventually even the dimmest receptor will detect the radiation.

I honestly think Pelosi has early onset Dementia. A decade ago she would have been smart politician enough to know to shut this shit down.

They put us in photos when they want to show our party is diverse. However, when we ask to be at the table, or speak up about issues that impact who we are, what we fight for & why we ran in the first place, we are ignored. To truly honor our diversity is to never silence us. https://t.co/7T1OlwS1YG

@Elgatouno That fear of Christians is terribly misplaced. It's like being afraid of the common cold but not afraid of rabies.

The difference in threat level is on the order of 1000x.

Kakistocracy says

But when we do mass murder of civilians - we call it bringing the light of Democracy to the region and it is wrapped up in a really spiffy red, white and blue flag and comes with a copy of the bible for each person still alive after we get done "arriving".

That's just not true. No bibles, just bombs.

And those bombs are created and dropped by the same corporate globalists who are undermining American workers by outsourcing manufacturing and insourcing illegals.

So we agree that the corporate globalists are the problem. That's a start.

Thing is, he's not.

Almost all his actions have been in opposition to outsourcing jobs and insourcing illegals.

Nothing to do with Bible. Bombs in, oil out. Pragmatic in short term yet extremely stupid in medium to long term.

I guess the next logical step is for some to realize that Trump is a corporate globalist.

Trump is a global opportunist. He will adopt any policy he feels is politically and economically advantageous...for him. He has no coherent philosophy, everything is personal and transactional. It is the way he ran his business and is the way he is attempting to run the country. No big secret here, same technique different situation.

antiforum

the overall conversation on this site reminds me of similar ones that Indian based forums have, on the topic of illegal immigration (from a porous bangladesh border - in india's case).
i.e., the exaggerated perception of threat from the nationalist crowd. The thinning support for humane (or even constitutional) discourse, etc.

Ofcourse, Indians are prepared to go one step further, and commit genocide (if required), whereas Americans seem much more civilized and are only engaging in online banter. American govts aren't actively engaged in ethnocleansing, the way Indian govt is preparing to, in the near future.

That's just not true.

Bullshit - we always claim God is on our side - the same God referred to by us - we are always doing God's work and fulfilling his mysterious ways
by inventing more deadly ways to kill people, not save them. Just like Jebus told us to do.

if you are talking about "peace through strengh", than you greatly misunderstood it. which is fine, if you ddin't grow up here. its an advanced concept.

Muslims killed more than 100 million Hindus in the past 1400 years and still parties like Islamic congress bring massive illegals from Islamic neighbors into country to suck the country. No Muslim think India is their country but have a birth right to suck everything under the name of gay terrorist god. If there is a Muslim around, there is no peace. They do not coexist. They always spread lies and hate, you sounded like you are one of them.

Muslims worship Mohammed, not God.

And Christians worship Jesus, as God.

One of the problems with religion is that some great teacher (not Mohammed) comes into the world with lessons for humanity. The teacher leaves and instead of following the lesson the followers worship the teacher.

I don't know if you know ... but one of the fundamental tenants of the so-called Protestant era was that faith and the faith that Jesus, himself, in a man's body, died for humanity's salvation is a big part of what Christianity is.

And thus, the worship here is that Jesus can absolve sin so that one doesn't have to actually work on oneself. And thus, one can be a serial killer and as long as he accepts the savior into his heart, after being served a life sentence, he'll be forgiven for all those dead bodies.

Sure but you have to genuinely (i.e. really) repent and accept. It's understandable to have problems with so much forgiving, but it is not even mildly related to a religious doctrine that TELLS its followers it MUST eliminate all apostates and non-believers. That's not the same ballpark, ain't even the same league. So looks a bit like a relativistic red herring.

If you've read any of my postings, I've always stated that Islam was a bullshit religion. There is no 'relativistic' card here.

Islam is the cultural imperialism of the people of Arabia or at least their Mullahs.

At least in things like eastern practices, like Taoism, Shamanism, Buddhism, etc, ppl have to work towards something, whether it's some sort of initiation, road to enlightenment, or some else, but it's not the same as 'faith' and then, faith absolves all shortcomings.
