25 Years Later, Yes, They’re Winning

But as Yogi Berra said, it ain’t over ‘til it’s over.

The media narrative has been set in stone for years: the real victims of 9/11 were Muslims in the U.S., who for a quarter-century now have suffered from unreasonable suspicion, hatred, harassment, discrimination and worse at the hands of racist, bigoted “Islamophobes.” And yet in reality, if Osama bin Laden and Mohamed Atta were alive today, they would look at what is happening in the United States with a deep sense of satisfaction.

This year, one of the primary drivers of the message that Muslims in the U.S. are poor victims who deserve particular sympathy and consideration on the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 jihad attacks has been Rozina Ali, author of a popular new book about what a hard time Muslims have had since those attacks.

Ali paints a nightmare scenario. The Amazon come-on for her book says: “Ultimately, the U.S. government’s Islamophobic policies disillusioned generations of Muslims who sought the promise of the American dream only to find their communities torn apart, their relatives imprisoned, and their religion villainized by politicians and media. Ali’s story of how we got to our terrifying present is a magisterial accomplishment and a damning indictment of the United States’ abandonment of its core principles in the face of fear.”

Wow, that’s bad. And yet in the years since 9/11, while all of this villainization and tearing apart of communities was supposedly going on, Muslims were streaming into the U.S. in large numbers, so that the U.S. Muslim population rose from 1.8 million in 2001 to 4.5 million now.

The reality is clear: Muslims have been coming into the U.S. since 9/11 not because they will have a hard time here, but because they have it easier here than they do in many of their home countries. And the jihad project to transform the U.S. into a Sharia state, which Osama bin Laden and his brethren tried to advance so spectacularly 25 years ago today, is going along quite nicely.

As ever-increasing numbers of Sharia-adherent Muslims are elected to political offices at all levels of the U.S. government, the entire leftist establishment continues to insist that Sharia is entirely benign religious law with no political content, to which only hate-filled “Islamophobes” could possibly object.

When I testified last February before the House Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government, Reps. Jamie Raskin (D-Steven Van Zandt), Mary Gay Scanlon (D-Clueless), and Steve Cohen (D-Even More Clueless) doggedly insisted, in the teeth of mountains of evidence, that Sharia was harmless religious law. They need only to have looked at Iran, Afghanistan or Pakistan to see what that harmless religious law is like when fully implemented, but none of them bothered to do so.

Raskin, Cohen, and Scanlon were duly following the Democrat Party line, which involves ignoring Sharia’s political, supremacist, expansionist, and violent aspects, and pretend that all opposition to it stems solely from an irrational and morally objectionable hatred.

Meanwhile, 25 years after 9/11, the U.S. government has no coherent strategy to deal with the threat that those who are advancing Sharia in the country pose. Ever since George W. Bush proclaimed six days after 9/11 that “Islam is peace,” the U.S. government has focused on stopping jihad terrorists, without ever acknowledging in any way that other Muslims might be trying to extend the hegemony of Sharia over this country by means other than terror attacks. The government likewise has paid no attention to the institutionalized discrimination against women and non-Muslims that is inherent in Sharia.

Under cover of darkness, the Sharia agenda continues to advance. The establishment does its part by spreading propaganda about how Muslims are poor, innocent victims, with no attention whatsoever to the 49,000 jihad attacks worldwide since 9/11, or to the boasts of an increasing number of Muslims in the U.S. about their imminent takeover.

It looks as if the jihadis have it all sewn up. Half of America is with them, smug in the assurance that they’re fighting against the real enemy, the “Islamophobic” bigots. The people who dare to call attention to the threat still find themselves stigmatized and demonized in the mainstream.

There are, however, glimmers of hope. More and more people are waking up to what Sharia involves. Numerous Americans are determined to resist. The jihadis and their allies and enablers have had a relatively easy time for the last twenty-five years. They may find the next 25 not to be so easy.

Islam is not harmless, sharia law is not harmless, terrorism is not harmless. Should I feel sorry that muslims feel that they are now victims? I don’t care. Go to a hell hole country that is islamic and don’t come back.

I have heard said that approximately 20% of Muslims are radicalized.
If the other 80% can’t or won’t do anything about it then they are just as much to blame.

The seemingly benign muslim of whatever stripe could at any moment get sudden jihad syndrome. Best avoided if possible.

They should go somewhere where they're not subject to this mistreatment.

Most of the key countries in Europe appear to have reached and gone over the IslamoNazi cliff. Sold out by their Ruling Elites. The IslamoNazi invasion of USA and Canada are patently only a very few years behind. Will Americans and Canadians allow the same fate to betake us as has seized control in Europe/UK/France/Belgium/Ireland/etcetera?

Mosques in Dearborn, Michigan, broadcast the Islamic call to prayer (adhan) using outdoor loudspeakers.
How It Works
Locations: Mosques such as the American Moslem Society, the Dearborn Community Center on Schaefer Road, and the Karbala Center play the call to prayer.
Frequency: Some locations broadcast the call multiple times a day, lasting for a couple of minutes per broadcast.

So instead of church bells, residents must listen to what Brak Nobama called, “One of the most beautiful sounds in the world.”
