How Long Before “Islamophobia” Becomes A Criminal Offense Requiring Imprisonment?
Freedom Outpost ^ | March 10, 2019 | Robert Spencer

You may think that’s a ridiculous question. The United States would never imprison people for criticizing Islam, would it? After all, we have the First Amendment!

Sure. But consider this. The whole world, East, West, North South, agrees that insulting Christianity and Judaism is a courageous act, and often even an artistic one, to be awarded by applause from the intelligentsia, and often with awards, honors, and cash grants. The whole world also agrees that insulting Islam, even including correct analysis of how jihadis use the texts and teachings of Islam to justify violence and supremacism, is a heinous crime that must be punished. In the West, it is punished by means of deplatforming, denial of service by social media giants and credit card corporations, and vilification in the most lurid of terms in the mainstream press.

In Malaysia, the punishment is simpler and not as draconian: you just get prison time. CNN reported Saturday that “a Malaysian man was sentenced to 10 years in prison for insulting Islam and the Prophet Mohammed on his Facebook page, police said. The 22-year-old Facebook user, identified as ‘Ayea Yea,’ pleaded guilty to 10 charges in a Kuala Lumpur court.” Nor was this a singular case: “The Royal Malaysia Police filed charges against three other social media account owners for insulting Islam and the Prophet Mohammed.” What’s more, Mohamad Fuzi of the Royal Malaysia Police noted: “The police had received 929 reports across the country on these cases and opened 16 investigation papers on cases connected to insulting Islam.”

We've already seen restrictions of criticism of Islam in America. Many journalists and individuals who have spoken out against Islam have been denigrated, have received death treats, and a few have been the targets of attempts on their life, here in America.

It's ALL part of the Cloward/Pivens plan to overwhelm America with problems, situations and people that keep a Conservative constantly swivelling his head to protect against another sucker punch.

Dear GOD, we need help !

The queers and the enemy are a strong force to resist against and it is ALL fomented by PUBLIC SCHOOLS ... that do not actually TEACH to retain, American history

America had better wake up !

Two less than educated, muzzie freshman representatives are already the camels' nose in.

as pointed out in THIS VIDEO , Almost Occasionally Conscious is very professionally scripted and she is really, really good at delivering her lines.

AND

, Cenk Uyger and Young Turks meltdown election night... and around the 6:30 mark he states .... WE'RE COMING AFTER YOU, DEMOCRATIC PARTY !

ALL of this adds up to a very well executed plot to take over the America every drop of blood shed in every war has ever paid for.

Aoc, tlaib and omar have bonded together to get Congress to drop the headgear ban JUST FOR THE TWO MUZZIE enemies the tratorous Americans actually voted in.

THIS SHIT IS DANGEROUS !

we also just saw the liberal congress pass a resolution ‘condemning all forms of ‘hate’- and we all know they don’t mean anti-semetism- what they really mean is criticism of islam- it’s a first step towards criminalizing criticism of islam

The censors call the targets of their hate Islamophobes. Well, I do fear the Islamists. I fear their intent, as directed by the Q'uran and Hadith, to either convert, enslave, or kill me.

Why, then, does such a fear, evidenced by the Imam's pronouncements, the Muslim writings, and the explicit violence to others not of the Islamic community (throughout the world) garner banishment, censorship, and calumny?

Why does our Socialist House of Representatives want to crush those who hold such a fear of a terrorist belief system?

How’s this?

Any official or politician advocating, promoting, and facilitating the importation of muslims into America should be tried for treason and hanged.

In Britain the police are arresting nine citizens per DAY for anti-Islam postings on social media. Brits are a monitored people now just like in Orwell’s 1984.

It’s just that the personal computer has replaced Orwell’s wall mounted telescreen.

UK is now a fascist state. PDJT should tweet out that Americans should avoid it as a tourist destination.

Islam has proclaimed:.... “we will conquer the west through the womb, and the ballot box.”.....France, Sweden, England, Norway, Denmark, etc etc all have failed against the Muslim invasion .....

....There actually wasn’t a fight....think about that.

They didn’t include Christians in that vote... Christian are more persecuted today than the muslims... the left side of wrong, are afraid to criticize muslim .. they would be attacked.... so the muslim can do what they want... just like they are doing today.

You all know, after Trump is no longer our President, they will come after his voters! How dare we do what we did!

Britain does not have a First Amendment.

The globalist/Dem agenda doesn’t require assimilation....rather ‘integration’ where various cultures need to live along side one another.

In fact the First Amendment only requires inserting two letters, P & C, before “speech” to correct our founding fathers’ “error.”

Codifying “hate crimes” was the came’s nose under the tent toward a national thought police.

Nor does Britain have a Second Amendment or a right of self defense.

Your average bloke on a London street is prey for the first bored cop or angry Muslim who comes along.

Islamophobia is a term of abuse ‘invented’ in the early 1980s by the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT), a subgroup of the Muslim Brotherhood.
The IIIT came up with this word ‘Islamophobia’ after seeing the success that ‘Gay Rights’ groups had had by labelling anti-Gay hatred as ‘Homophobia.

This was done to characterize as a phobia what is actually a sane, justified and morally correct response to the evil that is Islam.

The agenda of Islam around the world is to criminalize ‘all’ criticism of Islam now....It should be called out and its political aspirations NEVER accommodated.
