Worst Anti-Muslim Hate Crime in America was Committed by Muslim

Worst Anti-Muslim Hate Crime in America was Committed by Muslim

Posted By Daniel Greenfield On November 11, 2012 @ 5:30 pm In The Point | 18 Comments

When Shaima Alawadi was found beaten to death in her own dining room with a tire iron, CAIR and countless Muslim organizations rejoiced, and not just for the usual reason that Muslims rejoice when a woman is murdered, but because they had their own living dead proof that Islamophobia was the biggest problem in America since German Measles.

A note lying on the floor read, “Go back to your country, you terrorist;” which clearly meant that Shaima Alawadi’s murder was a hate crime, probably by someone who spent a lot of time reading Robert Spencer, joining militias and working on a Kibbutz.

There was talk of organizing a One Million Hijabs for Shaima Alawadi march, which in Saudi Arabia is just known as another Wednesday. Muslims and useful idiots began uploading photos of themselves in Hijabs with signs reading “I Am Shaima”.  A Sojourners blog used the murder to compare Islamophobia to the Holocaust and the Rwandan genocide.

The truth about the murder of Shaima Alawadi was that she wasn’t murdered by someone who hated Islam, but by a Muslim, in keeping with the teachings of Islam which permit husbands to beat their wives.  Shaima Alawadi was indeed murdered because of her Hijab, not because of prejudice against her Hijab, but because of the misogynistic culture that the Hijab represents.

Like so many Muslim women, Shaima Alawadi was murdered in an honor killing by her husband. Like so many Muslim women, she was forced into an arranged marriage at a young age, 15, and lived an unhappy life. Like so many Muslim women, she perpetuated the generational oppression of women, passing on the same misery to her unhappy daughters. And like so many Muslim women, when her desire for freedom conflicted with the Islamic patriarchy, she was murdered for it.

According to court documents revealed in the New York Times, Alawadi’s eldest daughter, Fatima, was found in a car with a 21-year-old man. After her mother picked her up, Fatima said “I love you, Mom” and jumped out of the car going 35 m.p.h., sustaining injuries. While recovering in the hospital, Fatima told authorities that she was being forced to marry a cousin in Iraq — not the man with whom she’d been in the car. Alhimidi, Alawadi’s husband, is in Iraq with his two eldest children (Fatima and her brother) for her funeral. They are expected to return the U.S. later this month.

This is the true hate crime here. Not American hatred of Muslims, but Muslim hatred of women and Muslim women participating in the oppression of other Muslim women until the dam breaks.

There ought to be a one million march of Hijabs for Shamia Alhimidi, empty Hijabs commemorating the Muslim women murdered by their husbands and their brothers, those who committed suicide, jumping out of cars, drinking acid or hanging themselves.

And it’s time for us to wake up to the meaning of the Hijab and the Koran.

One final note

Alzaidy told the newspaper her father and Alawadi’s husband had previously worked together in San Diego as private contractors for the U.S. Army, serving as cultural advisers to train soldiers who were going to be deployed to the Middle East.

A Muslim man who beat his wife to death with a tire iron and then tried to blame the crime on Americans is who we were using as a cultural adviser. And it makes sense. Because that is the culture of the Muslim world.

Has her husband been convicted of this, or how do we know that it was an honor killing by her husband?

Gee....you mean the real “war on women” is a part of Islam? After this campaign, the Democrats had millions of ignorant women convinced it was a part of the Republican platform.

Anyone with some spare time should go to youtube and search “Undercover Mosque”.It was a documentary series done by a British TV network in which they secretly sent people into major British mosques wired with hidden cameras.Can't recall exactly how many episodes there were but I guarantee that watching it for an hour will be an education the likes of which you've never had before.

Agreed. It would have been helpful if the article made note of the arrest of her husband with a reference.

Death, deception, agenda-driven, deranged-enablers in a growing collective inside the “free” republic. The example reinforces. The perpetrator lives to spread the message or be martyred another day. No downside for the deceivers. Jihad advances. We pay, we lose and ultimately we die.

Thank you. I wonder if the author (Greenfield?) would update the article to include that, just for those who haven’t followed the story through to its conclusion and need to know he’s not just being an “Islamophobe”.

With so many of these supposed hate crimes, the faker grabs headlines and the lie goes around the world a hundred times before a forensic investigation can conclusively prove it a fake - at which time a small article in the back of the papers is not seen by most, and the lie is thus able to be effective. Which is why they keep doing it.

What is incredible to me is that our very own elected officials are selling us on these muslims who kill thier own family members as normal according to religion and legit. Yet if thier husband killed them or thier daughters back in the day they would be gassed or electrocuted now they are humianly put to sleep, life in prison or 7 years out with good behavior. Yea I can see we are getting closer to thier understanding and acceptance of murder. These are people that represent us

At this rate Sharia will be law all over this country soon.
