New in PJ Media:
Sunday, March 15 is the International Day to Combat Islamophobia, and the day couldn’t possibly have come at a better time. It looks as if it was planned this year specifically in order to demonstrate the fact that “Islamophobia” is a spurious propaganda concept designed to intimidate people into thinking it’s wrong to stand against jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women.
It’s the best possible time because there have been four jihad attacks in the U.S. in the last two weeks, demonstrating in the most vivid and indelible way possible that criticism of Islam is not only not a manifestation of “hatred” or “bigotry,” much less “racism,” but a healthy manifestation of a society’s will to survive.
The latest lessons in the dangers of “Islamophobia” propaganda came on March 1, when a Muslim migrant opened fire in a bar in Austin, Texas, killing three people and injuring 13 others. Then on March 7, two pro-ISIS Muslims screaming “Allah akbar” threw a homemade shrapnel bomb at a crowd of pro-freedom protesters in New York City. Five days after that came two jihad attacks in one day, when a Muslim crashed his car into a Michigan synagogue and opened fire, while another Muslim started shooting at Old Dominion University, murdering one person and injuring two others.
After all this, UN Secretary-General António Guterres wrote late on Saturday evening, “Islamophobia” Day Eve: “Muslims worldwide often face institutional discrimination, socio-economic exclusion, biased immigration policies & unwarranted surveillance & profiling. This International Day to Combat Islamophobia, let’s re-commit to the equality, human rights & dignity of every person, no matter their faith.”
Guterres’ statement was more noteworthy for what it didn’t say than for what it did. He had nary a word to say about the four recent jihad attacks in the U.S., or about any jihad attacks anywhere. In fact, for Guterres and other “Islamophobia” propagandists, there are no jihad attacks. Those who commit jihad attacks are by the very act of doing so rendered non-Muslim.
And so New York Gov. Kathy Hochul wrote on Sunday, barely more than a week after a couple of Islamic State jihadis tried to commit mass murder for Allah in New York City: “On this International Day to Combat Islamophobia, and at a time when fear and division are rising in many places, New York stands firm: Hate has no home here. Muslim New Yorkers strengthen our communities every day, and we will always stand together against Islamophobia.”
In the view of Hochul, Guterres and other made guys and gals among the leftist intelligentsia, “Islamophobia” arises solely from some kind of irrational prejudice, as well as “racism.” The left’s refusal to acknowledge that jihad violence and Sharia oppression lead some people to dislike Islam undergirds the entire “Islamophobia” propaganda initiative. Once one realizes that there is indeed jihad violence, one’s concern about “Islamophobia” in the sense of criticism or dislike of Islam immediately disappears.
There is more. Read the rest here.

Islamization, like Cultural Marxism, deceives and virtue-signals against Non-Muslims using discrimination, segregation, violence, and terrorism through our Western Institutions via Muslim MONEY and Muslim LIVES as taught in Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 3:54; 7:99; 9:5, 29, 111; 49:15, etc.). Muslims love their Criminal-Terrorist-Gang Organizations to fund, to educate, and to propagate Muslim Propaganda against all Non-Muslims. Allah in Qur’an 49:15 teaches, “Surely the believers[Muslims] are only those who believed in Allah and his messenger. They do not doubt, and they performed JIHAD with their MONEY and their LIVES for the sake of Allah. Those are the truthful.”

Only the poorly informed give any weight to “Islamophobia”. People who know its doctrines for Jews, Infidels, women, Sharia, and acquisition of the Earth, know it for its barbaric origins which can surface, anytime.
It’s disheartening to realize the extent of cowardice coupled with hedonism prevalent in today’s world.
Europe won’t deal with its Muslim problem and is unwilling to relinquish the belief that it deserves unending peace and the continued subsidy of protection by the US after 80 years. The defense subsidy made its socialist systems possible. It’s over and the EU talks about a defense system but does nothing while its economy slides. Every Muslim attack in Europe is an anomaly in their delusional minds.
Watching a discussion between Glenn Diesen and Jeffery Sachs about the Iran war it became very clear they are both Socialists living in a dream, quite ignorant of Islamic doctrines, with thousands of Europeans believing them. Neither of these guys would work in actual labor for a day, but they will talk.
They are totally irrelevant to action, armchair Socialists, who will never understand why things won’t happen as they prescribed. Their first error is believing that Israel is not existentially threatened by Iran. Their second error is thinking there is a limit to the extent Israel and the US will go to preserve Israel and as a result, Europe’s rudderless hedonistic life will go on safely uninterrupted.
My advice is prepare for disruptions in everything that is dependent on oil.

Sunday March 15 the celebration of the Islamic lie. Islamophobia should be celebrated as the telling of the truth about the evils of ISLAM.

Just wondering one thing: was it indeed the Ahmadiyas who coined this stupid word “islamophobia”?
