Islamopandering is all the rage these days and is happening all over the country; Salt Lake City Mayor Erin Mendenhall is by no means unique, but offers a particularly egregious example of how foolish this really is. She happily dons a hijab, oblivious to the untold numbers of women who have been threatened, brutalized, and even killed for not wearing it.
She praises “the values of faith and kindness that Ramadan brings to our community,” giving the impression to those ignorant of their own culture (and they are legion) that Islam teaches faith and kindness in a way that Judaism and Christianity (and Mormonism) do not, and that faith and kindness didn’t exist in the West before Islam came along. She also ignores the real meaning of Ramadan, and why there is always more jihad violence during it. She is the very model of the modern useful idiot.

It was bad when a former Minneapolis mayor went to a mosque in a hijab to conduct city business. Now you have that lunacy in Salt Lake City as well. How islamically penetrated is Utah? I know it has been moving centrist over the last 2 decades, but this?
Am I right in assuming that it’s still a Red city, or has it somehow gone Purple, if not Blue?
Tony says
When Democrat Leaders develop Woke-Leftist thinking(eg. Useful Idiots), they are perfectly susceptible to making Muslim alliances that are detrimental to all Non-Muslims. This Red-Green Alliance is growing stronger all over the West. The end result is the explosive growth of Islamization throughout the West including America. Keep sharing your knowledge.
R G says
Several years ago actually, Laura Ingraham hit the nail on the head. She pointed out that even though there were almost no similarities between Islam and Mormonism , or Catholic churches,etc, these churches and their organizations get money for resettling so called refugees. That’s why these groups have been so anxious to “help “.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Despite not being Christian, I used to be somewhat supportive of churches having their role in politics, on issues like family values, education, the media and the like. But after the trend of almost all churches preaching love towards islam, I’m almost w/ the (D) separation-of-church-and-state crowd! If churches are gonna make it more difficult to ostracize and ultimately outlaw islam in the West, then get them out of the way, and just prosecute islam on purely secular ideals!
R G says
Same here. And also unfortunately too many religious organizations including Christian churches, Jewish liberals, Hindu liberals, etc are using their religious beliefs to push for open borders as we’ve seen recently.
Hank says
It exposes her as a shallow, pagan, fraudster and liar that runs on nothing but emotions. She has not read anything about what she is praising and promoting. A bag of emotions who would think that it was a demonstration of peace, tranqility and love when receiving candies from the joyous crowd after Oct 7 or 911. A braindead and empty-headed fool speaking lies about something she hasn’t even examined. Instead of wearing the burqa I would have respected her more if she came to the joyous celebration announcing that she just got her FGM yesterday as a sign of gratitude and support to the Muslim celebrants and its traditions.

NO, it’s called pandering for the muslim leftist votes and donations to her political bank account.
Ugly 312 says
She is the useful idiot and proves it by not k owing what she is doing. The hijob is an ugly means of controlling women as slime men cannot co trol their urge to put their penises in anything that has an orifice. Young boys, girls of any sge, farm animals and so forth.
Some other idiot wrote a PhD thesis on the magic power a woman’s hair generated turningmen into violent horny monsters. Mendenhall is basically giving the finger to all the repressed woman who have suffered at the hands of these monsters. Thinking about it makes me sick to my stomach. She should be forced to understand the holy month of violence, the meaning of the hi job and to apologize to all women around the world for celebrating this b.s.

Welcome to reality.
Islam is bad says
There is nothing kind about Islam.
When Christians establish a charity, they help everyone.
Muslims don’t.
A Muslim charity will only help Muslims.
When Christians establish a hospital, they help everyone.
Muslims don’t even establish hospitals.
Muslims are not known for their kindness, and to suggest they do is just a lie.
Tim gallagher says
What you say is spot on, Islam is bad. Muslims have a hate filled, rotten attitude towards non Muslims. Any kindness they have is only towards their fellow Muslims. Then again, I am a Christian but I loathe Islam and not give charity to Muslims. I would ban Islam from all civilised, non Muslim countries. Letting Muslims in is the dumbest move ever. It is suicidal.

A Muslim Hospital Can Be Established
https://wannabescholar.wordpress.com/2009/01/30/mission-possible-a-muslim-hospital-can-be-established/
Islam is bad says
The author of the article indicates that a Muslim hospital would be for the ummah.
The ummah
it is commonly used to mean the collective community of Muslim people.
So the author of “A Muslim Hospital Can Be Established” is proving my broader point.
When Christians establish a hospital, they help everyone.
If Muslims were ever to establish hospitals, the hospitals would only be for the benefit of Muslims.
Nothing kind about that.
Winston 101 says
ploome and Islam is bad,
Appreciate the link and the understanding of what Islamic hospitals would be. I hadn’t thought about that aspect of Islam.
Islam is so counter to everything in our Western understanding even
a hospital has to be explained. For instance, if we see a hospital with the name Methodist Hospital we know it’s not just for Methodists but an Islamic Hospital would only be by, and for, the Muslims. If they did ever build such a monstrosity they might have to hire and treat unbelievers – until they get their numbers up to point they can practice “Medical Jihad”.
Islam’s approach to hospitals is an example of how Islam views the unbelievers as their mortal enemy. As stated in the Quran unbelievers have offended Allah by their unbelief and deserve death for their sin. Why would they want to help or cure the unbelievers Allah has commanded them to kill? So they don’t.
Thanks again for your posts.

Jewish and Christian hospitals–of whatever denomination–are for *everyone*. This would *not* be the case wirh any Muslim hospital.
I was born in a Catholic hospital, even though my family is not Catholic. The care was excellent.
Taffy says
You forgot to say that a large percentage of Muslim “charities” and revenue scams direct the money to Muzzie terrorism, mostly overseas, but here too. Unfortunately the IRS has not revoked the tax free 401(c)(3) status of CAIR and similar Muzzie groups that violate the conditions of 401(c)(3) status.

Another kook’s nose ends up in the rear end of the Muslims as if Ramadan is some exceptional, spiritual experience when all it is just another fleshly, selfish, self adjulating grift.

Yes, Msyor Mendenhall in a burqa placating Islam is giving them fuel for their fires to burn down America. What a moron!
Dave says
This Mayor is a TWIT.
This shows she knows nothing about Islam, its history or the atrocities it has committed over the past 1400+ years and is still committing.
She is just trying to placate a very small portion of the community, that will never assimilate into American society. She is just looking for votes, not realizing what she is doing.
somehistory says
“Faith” is not an action, faith is “an assured expectation.” something muzzies do not understand nor appreciate.
Faith is not an action, and we all know muzzies are always acting out. We know what actions muzzies like so much: telling lies with a straight face; harassment, rape , torture and murder. Those are the actions of muzzies…..and they are without faith.
Kindness…..is not a trait of muzzies. Kindness is a show of consideration for others. muzzies don’t have any consideration for others…and no respect nor true friendship.
The Bible says “kindness” is one of the “fruits of God’s Spirit.” Living in Mormon land, this idiot should have some small awareness of what “faith” and “kindness” truly are.
She may as well have her dirty little carpet on which to bend to the islimic false god, and get ready for the whipping and rape when she is no longer wearing the slave-don’t-rape-me-rag.
Ugly 312 says
Some history, your message was very accurate. Never fail to remember the .mindset or perspective of middle east thinking or perspective. It is okay to screw over anyone you like. It is very common. That is why they have tbe reputation they do as Wheeler dealer cheaters. Netanyahu understands this hence the brutality they show Hezbollah and all the others. DJT and crew fail to factor this in. Your statements are correct though. Thank you sir.

I spent 22 years fighting islam with the .mighty 82nd. They are on high ready right now. I thought I got a good education between Kuwait, Kosovo, Afghanistan and Iraq, but you and Infidel are making g me think real hard and for that I am grateful. Helping g me to keep dementia at bay. I have triplet girls in college now and crazy is right around the corner. In all seriousness, combat was easier than kids. I love both, but keeping someone alive and healthy is much harder than going g tne other way. All the people that post make me think outside of my prejudiced box. Always thankful for that.
somehistory says
People need each other; and when it comes to knowing what muzzies want, it’s so important to learn from others, as all of us here do.
I can only imagine what it would be like to spend that much time in lands ruled by islime and having to watch every moment for violence.
I hope your girls stay safe. I have daughters, and granddaughters too, and pray daily for their safety and welfare.
Ugly 312 says
Somehistory, it never fails to amaze me that people forget that we do need each other. Some camaraderie and kindness go very far in our materialistic society. I started reading Robert Spencer after the events in Israel on 10/7. As a fairly observant Jewish man i have found great comfort in reading his books and then was turned onto this forum.
Knowing the perspective of others has helped me to be a better critical thinker and a better person. Perhaps my thinking is a little extreme as I think all should leave, but it is how i feel after having spent all that time in the M E.
Most importantly may G-d look down upon you and yours with kindness and compassion. I look forward to your continued posts.
Richard
somehistory says
Richrd, thank you for your kind thoughts for me and mine.
I was “introduced” to muzzies by being around them; where I lived, where I worked, etc. I had never read their book….and will never….so I was unaware of the demon filth they feed on daily. I just knew they were not people I wanted around me. so many showed rudeness when interacting with me, for no reason I could discern.
I was taking courses in public safety and criminal justice, most having to do with fighting terrorism when I found this site and began to read Mr Spencer’s words. I have only read one of his books, but many of his articles and listened to many of his interviews.
Obviously I can’t quote any of the book of demon filth, but I don’t feel that is necessary to know that the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob did not make man for those things.
I am thankful that faithful Jews recorded the Words we all need in order to be “blessed” by our Creator. And I’m thankful that Mr. Spencer and others have alerted us to the reasons for the evil muzzies commit everywhere they are, so we are on guard against them..
I’m glad you found this site and I look forward to reading more of what you have experienced and your thoughts on the matter.

I’m getting there too. I do cybersecurity for myself and contracting to some of the organizations you have read about or worked with.
I do all of my work off a phone and often make typos as well as using cheaters. I hate having to carry a phone all the time, but with kids and a loving wife I have no choice. I do hope your day goes easy.
Taffy says
You actually should read the “Book of Demon Filth” (I like your characterization), it is an eye-opener. It will give you insight beyond what Robert Spencer can convey of what the civilized world is up against. Reading it in conjunction with Robert’s historical research is the best of both worlds. And if you do read it, you are in good company. Thomas Jefferson read it; read his comments on the Barbary Wars. So did Winston Churchill. Unfortunately, we no longer have luminaries running our governments. Most are hacks that have little historical knowledge or insight as to what makes the world tick!
The Islamic ideology irreversibly permeates and poisons the Muslims’ soul. Yahya Sinwar, who committed the Qu’ran to memory, was serving four life sentences in an Israeli prison for murdering two Israeli soldiers and two informants. He started gettin dizzy spells, and a prison dentist correctly thought it was a brain tumor. Sinwar received the same neurosurgical care in an Israeli hospital as an Israeli would have received, and it saved his life. But the ingrate saw it as being rescued by Allah to continue his jihad against Israel from within the prison and afterwards when he was released in an ill-conceived prisoner exchange. All the Muzzies are poisoned by the Book of Filth, and by importing them amongst us, we now have a domestic cancer that threatens all of us infidels.

࿗Infidel࿘ says

What I did do was listen to Robert’s description of the demon-filth book on Hatun Tash’s channel – at least until chapter 9. Somehow, didn’t get the time since then. However, it gets repetitive and boring. There is the TL:DR version of the book, which is “muslims good, infidels bad”, and that infidels are to be killed, raped or humiliated in any way possible. What more do we need to know?
Ugly 312 says
Infidel, you distilled it down to those last two sentences. Those two are the most. crucial. We need not no more. What we need to ot out is what are we as free people going to do about it?
We cant rely on government to intervene as they are more concerned earned about money, votes and power. Very sad. Something needs to be done or I feel a very uncivil war will take place on the u.s. homeland. I still say it goes against judeo Christian pillars that the U.S was built on. Leave on your own, leave in a box or be buried at sea.
Take your pick, but they all must go.

somehistory says
Thank you, Richard. I don’t like having to keep a phone close all of the time, but that seems to be necessary in these times.
Thank you, Taffy. As I wrote, I saw islime up close and personal for years before I even heard of Mr Spencer or Mr. Ibrahim. I was “treated” to islime by its adherents and it taught me a lot about their behavior
I had read a book on various religions…all of the “major” ones… and the chapter on islime, written by a former muzzie, had nothing useful for understanding the “why” of the evil behavior.
As Infidel wrote, what more does one need.to know past: ““muslims good, infidels bad”, and that infidels are to be killed, raped or humiliated in any way possible.”
I have that memorized, and don’t need to read from the demons’. The book is spiritual poison.
But each one must make his own decisions on what to read, when and how much.
Winston 101 says
Ugly 312,
I am studying the Quran so I know HOW I’m being lied to by Islam.
For example, there is still the fairytale going around about how Islam sent desperately needed aid to Ireland during the 1845-52 Potato Famine. There is, to this day, in the town of Drogheda, a plaque commemorating the Ottoman Sultan’s charity.
If I had not read the Quran and understood Islam’s commands NOT to give charity to infidels, let them die, I might have been convinced to believe this lie.
The Sultan did send aid – did more than Queen Victoria – there is a plaque. If you do a low level search with AI it will tell you this lie was true. The political reality of WHY the Sultan did that is much more interesting.
Which AI will divulge, if you keep on pressing it.
Why would an Islamic Turkish Sultan send aid to starving Infidels when Mohammed and the Quran forbid it?
Turkey was facing the upcoming Crimean War, 1852-56, and the Sultan needed the British Empire on his side. He was facing off against the Russian Empire and was buying Infidel allies.
It was a cynical use of “charity” by a malign force to gain an ally.
Realpolitik pure and simple.
That plaque at Drogheda is used, to this day, to tell the Irish that they should let Islam into their borders because Islam came to their aid during the Great Famine.
I knew to keep pressing AI because I had read what the Quran says.
It was helpful to me to have done that.
Glad you are here.
somehistory says
Another fool, claiming to be Christian as he shows his muzziness.
“A mentor of Democratic candidate James Talarico, the Texas seminarian running for Senate, previously preached about “true jihad” at a pro-Palestinian rally, according to a Washington Examiner review of old protest footage.
Talarico, a Presbyterian pastor-in-training campaigning to represent the predominantly Christian state of Texas, has faced recent criticism for past political remarks he imbued with biblical references that traditional Christians see as skewed interpretations of the gospel.
While serving in the Texas House, Talarico frequently invoked Scripture from a liberal perspective to push a wide range of left-wing causes.
Talarico’s longtime religious adviser, Rev. Jim Rigby, has spoken at several massive anti-Israel protests over the years in and around Austin, where he made similarly theologically questionable statements that intertwined theological discourse with leftward activism.
In one pro-Palestinian protest in 2009, Rigby called for “true jihad” and questioned what it means to be denounced as antisemitic, according to a video clip unearthed by the Washington Examiner.
In that 2009 speech, Rigby told rallygoers, “If there is to be hope for humankind, then we must all realize that the true jihad is the struggle for peace and justice.”
While jihad is sometimes considered a spiritual struggle within oneself, in political contexts, the concept is viewed as a violent campaign waged against the enemies of Islam.
Counterterrorism communities in the West treat jihad as an instrument of war, a holy war aimed at destabilizing Christian-majority countries as well as Muslim governments that jihadists see as improper followers of Islam or following rival Islamic sects. Historically, denominational conversions of entire populations, such as in the Levant, Persia, North Africa, Spain, and parts of central Asia, have come about as the direct result of violent jihads.
In a separate part of the 2009 speech, Rigby seemingly downplayed antisemitism by questioning its meaning.
“If it’s antisemitic to question the policies of Israel, then the prophets of Israel were antisemitic,” Rigby said on the steps of the Texas state Capitol building.
Rigby quoted a passage from Kings 18:17-18 in which Ahab, the king of Israel, called the prophet Elijah “the troubler of Israel,” blaming him for a severe drought, but Elijah said Ahab caused the nation’s troubles by abandoning God’s commandments and worshiping Baal instead.”

It is really rare when you see a politician refusing to wear a hijab. The only example I can think of is Marine Le Pen, and look what happened to her. She is barred from running for office in France and is often described as a far-right extremist racist.

R G, Hank, Infidel and all,
Yet another, at best ignorant, politician cosplaying multiculturalism by donning the Submitscarf. She wishes to display how enlightened and open minded she feels.
She may feel it’s the same as going to an Italian festival dressed in red, white and green. It is not.
But as Hank above said – those are just her shallow feelings.
My shallow feelings wish she could be forded to wear the Submitscarf for at least a year. Then maybe graduate to a burka for a time.
She, as Mayor, is the City’s representative of local U S law. By U S law all are equal under the law. No U S citizen is required to wear special garments to mark themselves. She is showing that, as Mayor, and as a woman, she has no understanding of what she is promoting and submitting to by donning the Submitscarf.
I am not religious, but I returned to the Christian church I was raised in for the focus on morality. As a member I contributed – until I came to see that the church was literally supporting illegal immigration by providing legal services and physical support.
I left after 4 years of never hearing about the suffering Christians world wide at the hands of Islam and yet they supported open borders due to the suffering of the invaders.
I too came to know that churches who performed such “charity” benefitted from their “good works”. They received refugee “settlement” reimbursements but also many of the invaders were church goers who would now fill the empty churches
in the U. S.
The Founding Fathers of the U.S. understood the need for separation of church and state. Like Free Speech it can be frustrating at times. One of the problems England faces is they have a state religion –
so how can they object to no separation of Islamic religion and state.
All to say the rot is far and deep.
I am profoundly grateful to Mr Spencer et al and all of the people who post at this site.
