The White House announced Wednesday the administration will develop a National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia in the United States.

“President Biden ran for office to restore the soul of our nation. He is unequivocal: There is no place for hate in America against anyone. Period,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in statement.

The White House will be partnering with local communities on coming up with the strategy.
“For too long, Muslims in America, and those perceived to be Muslim, such as Arabs and Sikhs, have endured a disproportionate number of hate-fueled attacks and other discriminatory incidents,” Jean-Pierre said. “Moving forward, the President, Vice President, and our entire Administration will continue working to ensure every American has the freedom to live their lives in safety and without fear for how they pray, what they believe, and who they are.”

Christians and Jews will always be the target.

The other so called religion scares them.

Dem vs Rep Morning Radio show discussion about peace with Islam during the Bush years.

Republican: “There can be no peace unless you convert to their religion”

Democrat: “I’d be willing to say I converted if it meant peace. They have no idea what I’m really thinking during Muslim prayers”

Opposition to islam and terrorist is NOT a *phobia*.

It’s a rational response to a clear and present danger.

Needs to be repeated

“”It’s not a “phobia” when you can prove they kill innocent people.”” I’m an American, with a 2nd Amendment right to deal swiftly with anyone I have a legit fear of..... so do you want to talk about “islamaPHOBIA”.... If there is a well founded reason to fear something, you have a right to defend against it. Do they want to go there?
