Friday was a day that ended in a “y,” and so it was another occasion for leftist virtue-signaling. Old Joe Biden’s ghostwriter wrote on X: “On the International Day to Combat Islamophobia, we recognize the hate that Muslims face because of their beliefs and the ugly resurgence of Islamophobia following the war in Gaza. Let us rededicate ourselves to a world where people of all faiths are free to live without fear.” Biden hasn’t said a word, however, about the hate that Jews face from Muslims themselves. And it’s no wonder: such talk would clash with the left’s narrative.
In that narrative, Muslims are always and in every case victims, no matter what the actual circumstances may be. Among the chief propagators of this narrative are Muslim leaders themselves, who have perfected in the two decades since 9/11 the language of grievance that they know opens doors for them among the political and media elites. And so on Monday, Ibrahim Hooper of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) declared that Biden’s statement wasn’t good enough: “From Joe Biden on down, liberals denounce anti-Muslim bias to avoid mentioning the scourge of hate against #Palestinians. #Gaza #genocide @theintercept.”
Hooper included that last tag because he linked to a Monday article in The Intercept entitled “Let’s Name It: Not Just Islamophobia, but Anti-Palestinianism.” This article leads off with three alleged incidents of “Islamophobia,” at least one of which, the killing of three Muslim college students in Vermont, has nothing actually to do with hatred of Muslims at all. The killer had, in fact, defended Hamas, and so there was no evidence whatsoever that his murders had to do with “anti-Palestinian hate.”
Neither Biden, nor Hooper, nor The Intercept, meanwhile, had anything to say the genuine hatred that is coming out of U.S. mosques. The indispensable Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) recently reported that an imam in Miami, Dr. Fadi Yousef Kablawi, said this in a Friday sermon on March 8: “Allah revealed to the messengers, instantly: ‘We will defeat the oppressors, and We will make you the dwellers of their land, of their homes.’…By Allah, those settlements that they built, by Allah we will live in them.…By Allah, we will seize [them]. By Allah, we will enjoy [them]. By Allah we will live in [them]. If it is not us, our children will live in [them]. By Allah, the law of Allah and the shari’a of Allah will rule the land.”
This amounted to a prediction of the total destruction of Israel, which would mean a new genocide of the Jews, and Kablawi wasn’t finished. He prayed: “Oh Allah, support their mujahideen. Oh Allah, guide their shooting. Oh Allah, support them with our soldiers. Oh Allah, bring annihilation upon enemies of Islam. Oh Allah, bring annihilation upon the accursed Zionists. Oh Allah, curse them and then curse them some more. Oh Allah, heal the breasts of the believers.” The last part was the most ominous. The Qur’an tells Muslims to act as executors of the wrath of Allah, as the Qur’an directs Muslims to do: “Fight them, and Allah will punish them by your hands, and he will lay them low and give you victory over them, and he will heal the hearts of people who are believers. And he will remove the anger of their hearts.” (Qur’an 9:14-15).
Will someone hear Kablawi’s words and decide to heal the anger in his heart by doing his part for the “annihilation” of the “enemies of Islam”?
Meanwhile, at the Islamic Center of Warren, Michigan, Imam Abdou Alwaly Zindani recently preached: “One Jewish man in New York was talking to a Palestinian businessman. First, the [Palestinian] said: ‘Don’t worry, Jewish man. One day will come, and we will slaughter you like a sheep and the stone and the tree will work undercover with us. They will tell us: ‘Hey Muslim, come. Somebody is hiding here, get up and kill him.”
Zindani was referring to an Islamic tradition in which Muhammad is depicted as saying: “The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews.” (Sahih Muslim 2922)
If a Jewish rabbi or Christian preacher had said of Muslims that “one day we will slaughter you like sheep,” which would not happen and should not happen, the outcry would be immense. But will the Biden regime’s “Justice” Department act against Zindani or Kablawi? Come on, man! That would be “Islamophobic”!
It says everything you need to know that Pedo Joe is only trying to get Israel from attacking the terorrists and no effort is being made to make Egypt open the border to allow the “civilians” to flee to safety!
Some Hollywood guy was being interviewed and the interviewer said, “You’re always ragging on Christians. You never say a word about Muslims. Why is that?” He answered, “Because Christians aren’t going to kill you because they’re offended. Muslims will.”
Okay, then. Explains it all, doesn’t it?
Old Joe, like Obama, has sold his soul to Islam and big bucks.
no effort is being made to make Egypt open the border
—
Actually, Egypt has hundreds of tanks, artillery systems and thousand of troops right at the Gaza border, and is acting provocatively toward the IDF.
Old Joe is doing what 0bama tells him to do. Of course, he will be for musclemen and against Jews. According to 0bama, 90% of his administration is still in place; who’d did you say was running the country?
“...the hate that Muslims face because of their beliefs”
LOL. Could it possibly be as a result of their beliefs that the world would be a better place if all Jews and Christians were dead? Wake up and smell the jihad and the caliphate, Brandon! It’s aimed at you, me and everyone who doesn’t agree with Allah.
All religions are not equal, and one in particular is evil and decidedly not peaceful.
Hey obiden, how many jews are calling for the murder and extermination of muslims? Spare us your false accusations of “islamaphobia”
And just what is wrong with Islamophobia? Islam is antithetical to the civilized beliefs of Western culture, law, and philosophy.
I do not hate individual Muslims for their beliefs, but the extent to which they adhere to those beliefs creates an urge for resistance, and ultimately self-defense in whatever form that takes.
Same old song and dance. After the death and destruction of 9/11, we were all lectured on islamophobia because that was very bad and we shouldn’t do it. Here we are again, after the rape, beatings, and murder attack against Jews by Hamas, we all get to be lectured about islamophobia.
What a load of tripe.

Egypt has a longer memory than Pedo Joe-—and they do NOT want HAMAS OR PALIS
oh I dont blame Egypt one bit! I am just posting about how the Pedo Joe administration is so quick to tell the Jewish people what they must do or not do, but wont also do the same for the Egyptians.
Where is the blame for the human rights abuses against Eqypt for not allowing the refugees in? No where, because the KKK kill the Jews Democrats only want to blame the jews.
Soul? He sold that ages ago for a Senate seat. Pray for a Twilight Zone ending to another sold-his-soul story.
At heart, Islam is a murder cult aimed against all non-believers.
I hate Islam because Islamicists want to kill me and mine!
Do I really need any other reason?
If I were King for a day, EVERY follower of Mohammed would be forcibly expelled FRom America!
There is NO Islamophobia.
PHOBIA: Excessive, extreme, irrational, fear or panic reaction about a situation, living creature, place or object.
Simplified, an unreasonable or unwarranted fear. Since it is neither unwarranted nor unreasonable to fear a socio-political system masquerading as a religion which demands that you be subjugated, enslaved or killed if you reject it, Islamophobia does not exist.
