New in PJ Media:
On Friday, professional whiner and leftist grievance monger Wajahat Ali blamed the Muslim community’s rejection of the LGBTQ agenda not on Islam’s clear and unanimous theological opposition to homosexuality and the death penalty for it, but on none other than the Republican Party. Really, it’s so absurd and outlandish, why didn’t anyone think of it before?
Wajahat Ali is not only a regular columnist for the Daily Beast, but he also churns out reams of tired propaganda about how awful, racist, and “Islamophobic” America is for a host of other key organs of the leftist establishment, including the New York Times, The Atlantic, the Washington Post, the Guardian, and the New York Review of Books. He has written a whiny grievance book of his own, entitled “Go Back To Where You Came From: And, Other Helpful Recommendations on Becoming American,” and so, not surprisingly, he has been rewarded for his racism-mongering, hate, and divisiveness by getting plum speaking engagements at venues ranging from Princeton University to the UN.
Ali tweeted, or X’ed, or whatever it is people do at Elon Musk’s place these days: “Finished my Friday prayer at my local mosque where the imam prayed we would be saved from ‘the LGBTQ in our homes.’ Democrats are underestimating how pervasive GOP CRT & trans fear messaging/ propaganda has taken hold in religious communities & suburbs. You can’t ignore it.” Well, sure you can, but Wajahat Ali hopes you are gullible enough to stop looking at Islam’s death penalty for homosexuality and consider his own scenario.
He added, “Republicans in Virginia, from extremist groups like Moms 4 Liberty & politicians like Youngkin, are actively reaching out to Muslims. Similar messaging being done in Latino Catholic communities and Black and Asian Christian communities. When you cede this space, GOP steps in. Speaking to religous [sic] communities and engaging them with a message that explains how they’re being used by hateful groups, but also addresses their faith without ridiculing them, will go a long way.…And a good reminder a majority of Muslims are pro abortion rights and marriage equality in America. But disinformation and fear mongering go a long way when cloaked under terms of ‘religous [sic] freedom’ and ‘parental choice.’” Why can’t religious columnist Wajahat Ali spell “religious”?
After getting justifiable pushback for this ridiculous take, Ali added a petulant dig at what he believes to be the moral inferiority of his critics: “Nice to see this thread brought out the trolls who are into pluralism and open minded discourse as evidenced by their support for a racist vulgarian and bigoted policies. Again majority of Muslims in America support abortion rights and marriage equality — and CRT fear is working.”
There is more. Read the rest here.

This article points at two crucial matters:
1. Most Muslims have no clue what Islam is all about and what the Qur’an and related scripture says. Those who know, also know that it is fine to deceive the infidels about the reality of Islam. Either way the result is utter confusion!
2. Islam is in its core more political than it is a religion. It is called a Deen.
3. As a religion it postulates to be Abrahamic without any logical evidence. It surely doesn’t fit the gradual self revelation of God of Abraham, culminating in Jesus Christ, God in the flesh.
On the contrary Islam takes a gigant step backwards making Allah unknowable and unreliable (the greatest of deceivers whilst Abraham’s God cannot lie) and at the same time he is 100% deterministic, leaving no space for humans to choose between sin and virtue. In such world the only logical scope for sin is acts to prevent sinning as we see in societies which are hell bent on applying Sharia law.

To Goofy- Thank you for your truthful and profound comments of 6:10 am, Aug. 23.
In my humble opinion, Wajahat Ali is more concerned with fame and fortune rather than discerning the doctrines of Islam as expressed in the unholy Quran. How wonderful it would be if a guy like Wajahat Ali spoke the truth about Islam unapologetically. But it seems like he is one of Satan’s disciples. ??

Basically, the Republicans are responsible for all the worlds ills including Islams hate fest on poofters.
That is some serious mental gymnastics.
If we listen closely, we can hear the rats scurrying around in the heads of leftists. It must be a frightening place inside the heads of these individuals.
