The son of a man killed in the Sept. 11 attacks spoke out against using the tragedy to spread hateful, Islamophobic rhetoric during Friday’s ceremony marking 25 years since the attacks.

Here is a man who has been thoroughly indoctrinated. He has been told all his life that it is “hate” to discuss the motivating ideology behind the attacks that murdered his father. This has been the strategy of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and other Muslim and leftist groups since 9/11: tar the entire discussion of the jihad ideology as an exercise in “racism,” “bigotry” and “Islamophobia,” and dismiss it accordingly. This has been particularly true regarding any and all discussion of Islamic supremacism, and of the nonviolent efforts to bring Sharia to the U.S. This young man is evidently not very thoughtful, and never attempted to look beyond the cant and propaganda he was being fed. He cannot, however, be too harshly criticized; after all, as the son of a jihad murder victim, he might have become an effective and powerful voice against jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women and others. So extra efforts were likely made in order to ensure that he didn’t develop any independent thoughts.
Larry Estavan says
Dan Dow mourned the memory of 911 on social media, and CAIR immediately started a full scale campaign to have him fired.

John Smith says
His heart might be in the right place but his brain certainly isn’t. I didn’t mean that in a nasty way because this poor man has been through so much, but he is obviously still clueless about islam. To tell the truth about islam and it’s true intentions, is not spreading hate, it’s spreading honesty.

It’s 99% of the Muzzies that give the other 1% a bad name!
somehistory says
So true, John. Well written.
John Smith says
Thank you Somehistory.
Patrick White says
Muslims are so grateful for fools like this. They make the long-term Islamic plan so much easier.

I was looking at various sites last evening, finding several stories reporting on things which took place yesterday in NY.
I came across this guy, and as the headline was about his being a ‘ son of a victim,’ I listened to him. At least, I began listening to him, but I couldn’t listen to all he had to say in defense of ….his father’s murderers…and in defense of those who would gladly slice his throat for their false and evil demon god.
Being a *good* and *fair-minded* human does not include being a “patsy.” We must make known evil when we see it, otherwise, the evil escapes the consequences of its actions, and spreads to hurt others.
If he’s not evil at heart, then he’s being a patsy. And that can adversely affect others.

Sorry about your loss, but you’re a damned fool
࿗Infidel࿘ says
He might as well just piss on his father’s grave
James Lincoln says
The young man of the video – who has suffered a terrible loss – is very likely a “nice guy who just wants everyone to get along”.
He doesn’t strike me as someone who has ulterior motives.
That being said:
I don’t think that he is aware that he has been brainwashed by leftists / cair propagandists regarding devout followers of islam.
somehistory says
James, he may be a very nice person. But, he reminds me of a lot of children who have a parent who murders their other parent, and who refuse to eee the guilt.
I have seen a lot of Dateline. and I am often struck by the way some people refuse to see that a family member they love, has murdered another family member.
and, they’ll try to convince law enforcement that their *mom* committed suicide rather than consider that their *dad*….who lies to them about it…. is the murderer.
I feel bad for people like that. But they can do damage to others in getting to the Truth,
What would it take for this man to see the “light”?
I saw today that a former worker for bo, has become a Trump supporter.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
This was like OJ’s kids. Even though their dad was known to have murdered their mom – despite 2 conflicting court judgements – they continued to love and be loyal to him until his death
somehistory says
Yep. There are so many like them out there.
James Lincoln says
somehistory,
Everything that you said is true.
I would also highlight your “But they can do damage to others in getting to the Truth…”
Yes, that is the biggest problem.
Also, likely some “willful ignorance” going on as well – the truth is too difficult for him to accept along with its accompanying “cognitive dissonance”.
All speculation, of course. I don’t know exactly what is in that young man’s brain…
tgusa says
It is a fee country so he has the right to say and think what he wants. I also have the right to say to him that I dont want his scolding lecture. Bugger off with that. It is not about your dead dad’s legacy it is about those who are not dead and still face the menace that is islam. Oh and by the way dont bring other victims in to it (“the legacy of all these victims”) you dont speak for them you arrogant prick.

Son of man murdered in 9/11 jihad attacks warns against ‘Islamophobia’
……………………………………..
And this was the last speaker at the 9/11 Commemoration–by chance or deliberately, I don’t know.
But his claim that not wanting victims like his father to be murdered is hating on people who do not look like you is grotesque. Islam is a creed–a very ugly one–and not a “look” or ethnicity.
Tim gallagher says
Just another useful idiot who hasn’t got a clue about how evil and hate filled Islam is. Unfortunately there are far too many fools like this guy in all our societies sleepwalking into disaster.
SARGON says
True!!!
Tim gallagher says
It’s annoying that so many people remain so ignorant of Islam’s evil nature, sargon. If they would only wake up we would give Islam the treatment it deserves.
Joe1 says
Yeah, we are not honoring your father as good as he was; we are trying to make sure it doesn’t happen again. The best place to start is to declare Islam a terrorist organization. It truly is.

How about using Quran, hadiths and what Islamic preachers are saying to spread that Islam is evil?
9/11 is just one event just like 7/7, 10/7, Black September, or other many many similar events accross the world.
Or, the mass murders by Ottoman caliphate, Idi Amin Dada, Pakistan army in East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) in 1971. Or mass murder by muslims in Indonesia that took 0.5-1 million people, in Africa etc. Or other Islamic regimes or groups.
Can we use the so many events to vilify Islam?
jerry glenn says
How about a warning against Islamopandering?
Brenrod says
It’s not just about his father and the other victims, it’s also about the rest of us who are the targets continuing of the same depraved culture that killed his father. Here we are 25 years later and a mayor who has empathy for the murderers of his father is now running New York City. That tells me that New York City elections are incredibly corrupt and illegal migrants are voting or that the US citizens who love America have left New York.
Brenrod says
There is no Islamophobia because the definition of Islamophobia refers to an irrational fear of Islam, whereas a fear of Islam is completely rational. The problem is not Islamophobia, the problem is the danger of Islam to all non-Muslims.
