“Islam is now the fastest-growing religion in the country, says Statistics Canada.” As in other globalist countries, this increase is compounded by Canada’s open-door policy toward immigration, with Muslims taking center stage, and those entering are not necessarily vetted, which only adds to other legitimate concerns. Take, for instance, the infamous Roxam Road. Illegal migration via this route saw about 50,000 illegals enter Canada by 2019.  Although the largest concentration of these illegals was initially Haitians, by 2019, the largest group was reportedly from Nigeria, while Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt, and Yemen were all in the top 12 countries of origin. Illegals from around the world were responding to a big welcome from globalist Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who also threw out a welcome mat to returning Islamic State fighters. In 2019, Canada set out a countrywide plan to welcome more than 1,000,000 new immigrants over three years.

Canada’s population is 38 million. In 2018, Canada announced plans to “lead the charge” for the UN Migration Pact. And those Canada was welcoming weren’t persecuted Christians. Concerned Canadians reached out to try to help a Christian refugee family that had been ordered deported back to jihad-plagued Nigeria. The Trudeau government paid no attention to the many who rallied in the family’s defense, and a year later, it emerged that the family had gone underground to avoid deportation and certain death in Nigeria. For Muslims, different immigration rules apply in Canada, what with Trudeau’s welcome mat.

“The religious landscape in Canada has undergone significant changes”: the Muslim population has tripled in the last 15 years and is destined to expand much more. There are those who are programmed to scream “Islamophobia” at every turn, despite the fact that there are justifiable reasons for concern about this trend. A household is inarguably comprised of its members. Likewise, a country’s identity and direction are determined by its population. Once upon a time, immigration was carefully vetted and expectations of immigrants were a norm, but now, the logical two-way-street approach to immigration has given way to open doors.

Given the high level of Muslim immigration to Canada, the fact that some of these migrants believe in Sharia law is important. Arguments that are intended to confuse the discourse are easy to find, discussing the alleged multifaceted and complex nature of Sharia; these are really intended to make questioners look ignorant, “Islamophobic” or both, and close down discussion. While Sharia is subject to differing interpretations, in mainstream Islam the Sharia is regarded as divine law, absolute,  immutable, and eternal. This includes laws regarding amputation, stoning, and the like. This is the aspect that needs to be openly discussed, but discussion is shut down.

Adherents of Sharia have engaged in genocidal persecution of religious minorities, as well as abuse of women globally. Muslim countries are restrictive, particularly for religious minorities and women, because of Sharia provisions. Despite variations in Sharia rulings, in no Islamic country is the principle of the equality of dignity and rights of all human beings accepted.

When Muslims immigrate to the West, those who embrace Sharia and believe that it should be spread do not magically change their beliefs. Indeed, generally the more devoted Muslims are to mainstream Islam and the literal understanding of its texts, the more determined they are to establish Sharia everywhere.

Consider this argument from the American Thinker:

Jihadist groups like ISIS and al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood and Boko Haram and the many, many others may have lesser agendas that diverge, but on this overarching matter, calling for the imposition of sharia law….. the bulk of all Muslims accept the premise that ultimately, sharia law will prevail globally under the guidance of the caliphate. It is, furthermore, mainstream Islamic thought that all believers are obliged to struggle for the achievement of that ideal condition. This struggle is referred to as the lesser jihad, and no Muslim can deny its dogma…The global imposition of sharia law and the caliphate are not distortions of true Islam; they are mainstream ideals that the religion expects all believers to pursue.

Islam is not just a religion, but an entire political system. “Muslims are not meant to be ruled by non-Muslims. The Quran is very clear that they are to resist unbelievers by any means until Islam establishes political supremacy. This doesn’t mean that everyone must be forced to become Muslim, but rather that everyone must submit to the supremacy of Islam.” Read more HERE.

Canada is already in danger of losing its freedom of speech altogether, given the activities of aggressive Islamic lobbies in the country that are forcing the Organization of Islamic Cooperation’s agenda of “Islamophobia” down the throats of Canadians. Given open-door immigration without assimilation, the country will be unrecognizable in a few years.

“Muslim population of Canada triples in 15 years,” Western Standard, October 31, 2021:

Islam is now the fastest-growing religion in the country, says Statistics Canada.

Blacklock’s Reporter says the Muslim population as a portion of the entire country has more than tripled since 1996 but remains outnumbered 9 to 1 by Catholics.

“The religious landscape in Canada has undergone significant changes,” analysts wrote in a report.

Statistics Canada said the impact was far-reaching.

“From a sociological standpoint, the study of the evolution of religion allows for a better understanding of some of the changes modern societies are facing,” said StatsCan.

“In addition, religion is important with respect to population change because it can influence important demographic factors such as marriage, divorce and fertility.”

The majority of Canadians surveyed, 68%, said they had some religious affiliation though fewer, 23%, regularly attended a church, temple, mosque or synagogue. Only 16% of Canadians attend weekly religious group activities like Mass, while 23% said they attended monthly.

“In recent decades there has been a decline in religious affiliation, participation in group or individual religious or spiritual activities, and the importance of religious and spiritual beliefs in how people live their lives,” wrote analysts.

From 1996 to 2019 figures on various religious groups’ share of the total population indicated:

the proportion of Jewish Canadians declined from 1.1% to 1%;
the Sikh population doubled from 0.7% to 1.4%;
the Hindu population doubled from 0.5% to 1.7%;
the Muslim population tripled from 1.1% to 3.7%.
As late as 1985 there were so few Muslims in Canada the religion was categorized as “others” in a federal survey……

Bulgaria sends 350 troops to Turkish border as illegal Afghan migrant crossings triple

BY CHRISTINE DOUGLASS-WILLIAMS

In August, German humanitarian development worker Sybille Schnehage “predicted as many as three million Afghan asylum seekers could head to Europe in the near future,” and Bulgaria is just one of many EU countries facing the influx. In Bulgaria, Islam is the second largest religion after Christianity, and Muslims make up 7.8% of the population.

The open welcome at the height of the Syrian crisis of 2015 sent a signal to every possible migrant — from the innocent refugee to the economic migrant to the jihadist. But now, given the chaos that has turned once-peaceful countries into security risks for citizens and vastly increased the taxpayer burden, many EU countries have learned a lesson. Twelve EU countries recently requested money from the EU to build border walls. Although the request was rejected, many of these countries have already built the walls anyway.

Even Turkey, which has facilitated Muslim migration into the EU, has blocked migrants from its own country. Erdogan has fortified over 600 miles of Turkey’s land border with walls to keep out Afghans.

Lithuania, Poland and Hungary have already erected walls to keep out illegal migrants, while Denmark plans to begin undoing the immigration policy of its predecessors, with a goal of deporting up to 35,000 migrants by 2030.  Despite Erdogan’s frequent accusations about the West being “Islamophobic,” his security agents have been shooting at migrants to keep them out since 2016.

More EU countries are becoming resolute in protecting their borders from the unvetted Muslim migrants who are arriving from Afghanistan. Taliban jihadis are feared to be among them, just as has happened so many times before. French authorities have already identified five Afghan “refugees” as Taliban members.

Given the incompatibility of mainstream Islam (and Sharia) with the disbelieving West, trouble is in the offing.

“Bulgaria tries to stem migrant flows,” Ekathimerini, November 1, 2021:

Bulgaria sent 350 troops to its border with Turkey Monday to support police due to growing pressure of migrant flows, Defense Minister Georgi Panayotov said.

“From today, Monday, soldiers at the Bulgarian-Turkish border will support the border police. 350 people have been sent along with about 40 units of equipment, he said in an interview with bTV.

More than 6,500 people who entered the country illegally, mostly Afghans, were arrested in Bulgaria from January to September, more than three times the number in 2020, according to the Interior Ministry.

Bulgaria is on the route of migrants and refugees who want to reach Europe. A barbed wire, damaged in many places, covers the 259-km long Bulgarian-Turkish border.

Parliament had decided in August to send 400 to 700 troops to Bulgaria’s borders with Turkey and Greece to help build fences.

The poorest EU member, Bulgaria has never accepted large numbers of asylum seekers, most of whom leave the country before even receiving an answer about their refugee status.

FBI again claims that ‘white supremacists’ pose as great a threat to the US as Islamic State jihadis

You just don’t see “white supremacist” terror attacks and plots around the U.S., while any regular reader of Jihad Watch knows that there are Islamic State jihad plots caught here fairly often. Why is that? Are “white supremacists” better able to cover their tracks? Or is the whole idea of a massive “white supremacist” terror threat an attempt to silence and destroy the political opposition by first smearing it as “white supremacist” and then as terrorist?

“White supremacist threat to the US as great as Islamic State, FBI tells Congress,” by Alex Woodward, Independent, November 4, 2021:

Federal law enforcement has once again warned members of Congress that white supremacists and other domestic extremists pose as great a threat to the US as Islamic State militants, a familiar warning to lawmakers after repeated advisories have pointed to the rise of racist violence and conspiracy theories that have proliferated online.

Officials with the FBI and Department of Homeland Security also told…

Twitter’s New ‘Curator’ for Middle East News has Long Anti-Israel History

BY HUGH FITZGERALD

SEE: https://www.jihadwatch.org/2021/11/twitters-new-curator-for-middle-east-news-has-long-anti-israel-history;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

Twitter has just created a new post for an “editorial curation head” who will regulate all coverage at the site having to do with the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). It’s quite a responsibility. Twitter looked high and low for someone suitably objective, or so they pretend, but the person they have just appointed, Fadah Jassem, turns out to be anything but. A report on Ms. Jassem is here: “New Twitter Curator for Middle East News Apologizes for Past ‘Ill-Informed’ Tweets About Israel,” by Shiryn Ghermezian, Algemeiner, November 2, 2021:

Twitter’s newly-appointed “editorial curation lead” for the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) began her new job with an apology after coming under fire for previous tweets about Israel.

Fadah Jassem announced her new position on Monday in a Twitter post, saying, “Very excited to get stuck in and delve deeper into the discussions that matter from this diverse and lively region.” The London-based, former Al Jazeera reporter added the emoji flags of 16 countries in the MENA region, as well as the Palestinian one, but the Israeli flag was not included.

So her background includes being a reporter for Al Jazeera, the viciously anti-Israel pro-Palestinian news outlet owned by the government of Qatar. That by itself ought to have disqualified her. But there is more. She added to her Twitter post emoji flags of 16 countries that belong to the MENA region, but managed to leave out the flag of Israel.

An oversight? Or the vexilogical equivalent of a Freudian slip? Fadah Jassem could not possibly have omitted by mere forgetfulness the emoji flag of Israel. It’s the best known, and the most discussed, for good and bad, among the MENA countries. Leaving it out was a deliberate expression of her antipathy to the Jewish state, a semaphoring to her Arab and Muslim audience – the same one she addressed when she worked for Al Jazeera – that her views hadn’t changed with the job, and she would make sure that Twitter covered Israel and “Palestine” in a way they would approve.

After Twitter users noted the missing Israeli flag, Jassem posted another tweet that featured the flags of Israel, Turkey and Djibouti, adding that she could not access the flag of Oman.

Fadah Jassem posted the Israeli flag only after many complaints came into Twitter, and she pretended that there had been nothing sinister about her initial failure to post Israel’s emoji flag. After all, she had also failed to post the emoji flags of Turkey and Djibouti. Isn’t that proof enough, she wants her critics to believe, that there was nothing anti-Israel in her leaving out the flag of the Jewish state? But Turkey and Djibouti are arguably not fully included in the MENA region; western Turkey is considered to be in Europe; Djibouti lies at the northeast corner of the Horn of Africa, halfway down the continent’s east coast and far from the Middle East. Israel, however, is situated at the very center of the MENA region, and to leave its flag out, as Jassem did, while making sure to includes an emoji flag for “Palestine,” was not, as she pretends, an innocent lapse.

Other users resurfaced several years-old posts from Jassem, including a September 2010 retweet that said Israel was “not born” but instead “dropped like a bomb in the middle of Palestine.” In December of the same year, she quoted Nation of Islam leader and notorious antisemite Louis Farrakhan at least four times in posts singling out Israel, such as “we give you our tax dollars to support Israel every year.” She called his speeches “a great example of faith transcending boundaries.”

How “objective“ does Twitter think its MENA coverage, as “curated” by Fadah Jassem, can possibly be, If the person put in charge of “curating” Twitter’s coverage of MENA retweets with evident approval, in September 2010, someone else’s tweet that claimed Israel was not “born” but “dropped like a bomb in the middle of Palestine”? How can Jassem possibly be allowed to continue, now that her outrageous view of Israel has been revealed, to be Twitter’s “curator” of posts about MENA, including coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?

And what about Fadah Jassem’s admiration for America’s leading antisemite, Louis Farrakhan, whom she has repeatedly retweeted? Wouldn’t his infamous record have alerted her to stay clear of his malignant drivel, whether he is denouncing all Jews as “children of Satan” or praising Adolf Hitler?

Many people know about Farrakhan’s deep antisemitism, but apparently the newly-appointed “curator” of tweets about MENA lands is not among them. Or perhaps she did know about his view of Jews, and didn’t care. That would make her behavior even worse.

Here’s just a bit from Minister Farrakhan’s farrago of antisemitic hate:

In June 2010, Farrakhan sent letters to several leaders of the Jewish community demanding that they acknowledge the evils they have perpetrated and that they must now work to further Farrakhan’s goals, especially by providing him with money. The letter ended with a threat to “ruin and destroy your power and influence here and throughout the world” if his terms were not met. This is the crime of extortion.

On Saviours’ Day, Feb. 25, 1990, Farrakhan gave a speech that included this: “The Jews, a small handful, control the movement of this great nation, like a radar controls the movement of a great ship in the waters. … The Jews got a stranglehold on the Congress.”

On Saviours’ Day, Feb, 25, 1996, Farrakhan said this about Jews: “And you do with me as is written, but remember that I have warned you that Allah will punish you. You are wicked deceivers of the American people. You have sucked their blood. You are not real Jews, those of you that are not real Jews. You are the synagogue of Satan, and you have wrapped your tentacles around the U.S. government, and you are deceiving and sending this nation to hell. But I warn you in the name of Allah, you would be wise to leave me alone. But if you choose to crucify me, know that Allah will crucify you.”

“We can now present to our people and the world a true, undeniable record of the relationship between Blacks and Jews from their own mouths and pens. These scholars, Rabbis and historians [that Nation of Islam researchers studied] have given to us an undeniable record of Jewish anti-Black behavior, starting with the horror of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, plantation slavery, Jim Crow, sharecropping, the labor movement of the North and South, the unions and the misuse of our people that continues to this very moment.”

–From a letter sent by Louis Farrakhan to Jewish leaders, June 24, 2010

“Osama Bin Laden didn’t destroy the Twin Towers. That was a false flag operation to take the world’s attention away from the great disunity in America after George W. Bush stole the election.”[you can guess who, according to Farrakhan, was behind that “false flag” operation] –Louis Farrakhan in The Final Call, March 15, 2016

“I’m not an anti-Semite. I’m anti-Termite.” –Oct. 16, 2018, tweet from Louis Farrakhan (@LouisFarrakhan).

“Pedophilia and sexual perversion institutionalized in Hollywood and the entertainment industries can be traced to Talmudic principles and Jewish influence. Not Jewish influence, Satanic influence under the name of Jew.” –Louis Farrakhan, Saviours’ Day speech, Chicago, Feb. 17, 2019

Farrakhan-related posts were uploaded by Jassem shortly before she was employed as a freelance producer by NBC News’ London desk, the media watchdog HonestReporting said.

Farrakhan has famously declared that “Hitler was a great man.”

Yet Fadah Jassem has retweeted, admiringly, tweets by Louis Farrakhan. How likely is it she will move to ban him at Twitter for his obsessive savaging of Israel?

After her earlier tweets quoting Farrakhan came to light, Jassem later issued a public apology on Twitter. “I can see that I have been ill-informed with some tweets when [I was] younger. I apologize for any offense caused by these particular tweets and like I said for forgetting the Israeli flag with reference to MENA as I did others,” she wrote in response to HonestReporting’s Emanuel Miller on Monday [Nov. 1].

She can “apologize” all she likes — her taqqiya is showing — and she carefully does not tell us in which of her tweets she showed herself to be “ill-informed,” but she does not address the main issue: why has she repeatedly and approvingly tweeted remarks by the semi-demented antisemite Louis Farrakhan? And how was it that she just “forgot” to post the Israeli emoji flag along with the 16 others that she did post, including one of the “State of Palestine”? And the main point, that she fails to address, is her retweeting of another’s tweet describing Israel as “not [having been] born” but, rather, “dropped like a bomb in the middle of Palestine.”

She has since made her Twitter account private.

She’s now fearing more discoveries of damning tweets she may have made in the past, and is worried about others having access to her future expressions of opinion; she’s decided to hide all of her tweets, past, present, and future. What should we make of someone who is supposed to “curate” the content about MENA on Twitter, but has made her own Twitter account private? It’s not surprising that she would try to hide such remarks as the one about Israel being “not born” but, rather, “dropped like a bomb in the middle of Palestine.” But what does Twitter, what does CEO Jack Dorsey, now think, based on this new information about Jassem’s own tweets, and her determination to hide them, about the decision to hire her and give her the immense responsibility for  “curating” the tweets of everyone else about MENA?

According to Jassem’s job description, she will lead efforts to facilitate “the curation of the best, most relevant, and timely content that reaches, engages and delights one of the largest daily audiences in the world.” Wouldn’t it be better to hire someone who will “inform” that large audience, rather than “delight” it by playing to its prejudices?

Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter, has in the past shown a disturbing indifference to antisemitic content.

Twitter’s critics have often pointed out the company took action against Trump for violating the company’s rules, but always sits back when Ayatollah Khamenei bashes Jews and Israel. Khamenei has, on many occasions, referred to Israel as “cancerous,” and has at other times said it is an “evil, wolf-like entity.” Earlier this year, he referred to Israel as a “deadly, cancerous growth and a detriment to this region. It will undoubtedly be uprooted and destroyed.”

His comments appear to violate Twitter’s “hateful conduct policy,” which bars users from threatening people with violence, among other rules.

“We are committed to combating abuse motivated by hatred, prejudice or intolerance,” Twitter’s policy says.

When it comes to Israel and Jews, users are allowed to threaten all they want. Twitter allows antisemitic abuse to continue to appear on its website.

And along with antisemitic and anti-Israel tweets that he has allowed to be posted, Jack Dorsey has not taken any steps to remove Holocaust-denial tweets.

Dorsey has been quick to edit content deemed to be “misinformation” when it comes to politics, the coronavirus pandemic and other issues of consequence. But when users on his platform spread harmful lies about the systematic murder of 6 million Jews, he does nothing.

Among the tweets that a group protesting outside of Dorsey’s home broadcast to the world were these, still up at Twitter:“The holocaust is fake to distract from the truth. 6 million Jews did not die”; “Joe Biden’s win is as fake as the holocaust”; “The holocaust is fake and gay.”

Dorsey has yet to ban any neo-Nazi material. Apparently, he is willing to ignore the stated policy of his own company, which declares “We are committed to combating abuse motivated by hatred, prejudice or intolerance.”

Jack Dorsey’s policy of tolerating antisemitic tweets, Holocaust-denying tweets, tweets calling for the murder of Israelis and the destruction of Israel, infuriated the British comic Sacha Baron Cohen, who called Dorsey out this past May: “Why do you allow #HitlerWasRight ?!” he wrote. “Those who celebrate the Holocaust aim to perpetuate another. #StopHateForProfit.” Baron Cohen was apparently reacting to an Anti-Defamation League report released recently that said more than 17,000 tweets used variations of the phrase “Hitler Was Right” between May 7 and May 14. But those tweets were not deleted, nor those who posted them banned – the way Donald Trump was — from the site.

Given what all this tells us about Jack Dorsey, no one should be surprised that Fadah Jassem has been chosen to be “Editorial Curation Lead” for all tweets about the MENA region. Her anti-Israel views, her years of propagandizing at Al Jazeera, her admiration for Louis Farrakhan – all these make her an ideal candidate for the position. And judging by Jack Dorsey’s demonstrated tolerance for “Hitler was right” tweets, Holocaust-denying tweets, destroy-Israel tweets, Fadah Jassem should feel right at home.

Afghanistan: Man sells 9-year-old daughter to buy food, begs 55-year-old husband not to beat her

What happens when the man runs out of food again?

Observe there is a similarity between the 55-year-old man who is now the husband of a 9-year-old girl and the famous story of Aisha and Muhammad:

“The Prophet wrote the (marriage contract) with Aisha while she was six years old and consummated his marriage with her while she was nine years old and she remained with him for nine years (i.e. till his death)” (Bukhari 7.62.88).

Another tradition has Aisha herself recount the scene:

The Prophet engaged me when I was a girl of six (years). We went to Medina and stayed at the home of Bani-al-Harith bin Khazraj. Then I got ill and my hair fell down. Later on my hair grew (again) and my mother, Um Ruman, came to me while I was playing in a swing with some of my girl friends. She called me, and I went to her, not knowing what she wanted to do to me. She caught me by the hand and made me stand at the door of the house. I was breathless then, and when my breathing became all right, she took some water and rubbed my face and head with it. Then she took me into the house. There in the house I saw some Ansari women who said, “Best wishes and Allah’s Blessing and a good luck.” Then she entrusted me to them and they prepared me (for the marriage). Unexpectedly Allah’s Apostle came to me in the forenoon and my mother handed me over to him, and at that time I was a girl of nine years of age. (Bukhari 5.58.234).

Muhammad was in his 50’s.

The Afghan father also pleaded with the 55-year-old man not to beat his little daughter. Consider another account of Muhammad and Aisha: Aisha says in a hadith that Muhammad “struck me on the chest which caused me pain, and then said: ‘Did you think that Allah and His Apostle would deal unjustly with you?’” — Sahih Muslim 2127

Also….

“Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great.” Quran 4:34

As sickening as it is to read about a man begging for his daughter not to be beaten after selling her off to a 55-year-old man in marriage, it is even worse to think about the rape of this young girl as a child bride. Beatings will most likely follow, as per the Quran.

“‘This is your bride…please don’t beat her’: Heart-breaking moment Afghan father pleads with 55-year-old man as he is forced to sell his daughter, aged NINE, to him so he can buy food,” by Rachael Bunyan, MailOnline, November 2, 2021:

An Afghan father who has been forced to sell his nine-year-old daughter to a 55-year-old man as a child bride so he can buy food has pleaded for his child’s new husband not to beat her.

Parwana Malik, nine, is being sold by her parents to a stranger who the youngster describes as an ‘old man’ due to his white beard and eyebrows.

On the day Parwana was taken away by her 55-year-old buyer, Qorban, her weeping father, Abdul Malik, pleaded for him to not hurt his child, reports CNN.

Abdul, who is ‘broken’ with guilt, broke down in tears as he told Qorban: ‘This is your bride. Please take care of her. You are responsible now, please don’t beat her.’

Parwana’s family said they had no choice, and are among scores of destitute families who being forced to sell their young daughters into marriage to survive, as Afghanistan plunges further into a humanitarian crisis.

One girl, aged 10, spends her days crying as she waits for the day she is sold to a 70-year-old man to help her family pay off their debts.

Another nine-member family is preparing to sell their four-year-old and nine-year-old daughters to have enough money for food.

Parwana and her family have been living in an Afghan displacement camp in northwestern Badghis province for the past four years. They have survived on humanitarian aid and work which earns them around £2 a day.

But since the Taliban took over Afghanistan in August, the country’s economy is on the brink of collapse and international humanitarian aid has been put on hold – and the effects are deeply felt by families such as Parwana’s who cannot buy basic goods such as food.

Abdul was forced to sell Parwana’s 12-year-old sister months ago to help his family survive.

Parwana, her small face peeping out from her pale pink hijab, told CNN: ‘My father has sold me because we don’t have bread, rice or flour. He has sold me to an old man.’…..

FORT MCCOY, WISCONSIN: Soldiers Forced to Bunk Outdoors While Afghan Refugees Slept in Their Barracks

Afghans first, Americans last.

Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.

In 2019, members of the 2nd Battalion, 127th Infantry returned home from Afghanistan. In early October, the 127th left Appleton, Wisconsin and traveled to Fort McCoy for training.

Unfortunately, Fort McCoy was already occupied by an estimated 13,000 Afghan “refugees”.

According to Rep. Tom Tiffany, who has paid several visits to Fort McCoy, the base only has the capacity to house 10,000 people, and is struggling to cope with the overflow in tents. When they first arrived some 600 Afghans had been quarantined with a variety of infectious conditions.

Fort McCoy, located in rural Wisconsin between the small cities of Sparta and Tomah, started out as an artillery range and its barracks were intended to house military personnel arriving for training exercises, not huge numbers of foreign migrants. The barracks, which were built during World War II, are in poor condition and a new construction project only recently got underway.

Even while hosting the largest population of Afghan migrants in the country, Fort McCoy struggled to maintain its training role. Over 100,000 troops had trained there during the fiscal year with personnel from all of the services participating in everything from cold weather operations (it gets pretty cold in that part of the country) and various exercises.

When the 127th arrived, the barracks they were meant to sleep in had already been taken. With Afghans sleeping in their barracks and their beds, they reportedly had to sleep outside instead.

“The summers are warm and wet; the winters are freezing, snowy, and windy,” is how the local weather has been described. In October the weather had begun its slow descent from warm and wet to freezing, but it was not the Afghans who were expected to deal with the weather.

According to a Department of Defense spokesperson, “The 2-127 Infantry Battalion was offered access to the hard structures in the field, as the barracks on post are currently occupied by our Afghan guests.” The spokesperson also insisted that, “There were no unexpected weather events during the training and no impact to the Fort McCoy mission or training for the service members.” And yet according to some the impact on morale has been quite serious.

The displacement of American soldiers to make way for Afghan migrants was symbolic of events in Washington D.C. and at Fort McCoy where refugee meals closely follow Islamic Sharia and liquor was removed from the shelves of the PX so as not to offend the Afghans.

The men of the “Red Arrow” are used to challenges. With a history that includes the Iron Brigade of the Civil War and the Les Terribles in WWI, and as members of the Wisconsin National Guard, they’re not afraid of weather. But the displacement drove home to them where the priorities of the military brass lie, not with the soldiers who served in Afghanistan, but the Afghans whom the Taliban waved past their terrorist checkpoints in Kabul and on to America.

Some no longer recognize Fort McCoy, divided into Afghan “neighborhoods” where the hated Shuras (an Islamic form of tribal governance) have been reconvened and are dictating to base personnel the way that they did during the failed “hearts and minds” efforts in Afghanistan.

The national media, which had little interest in Fort McCoy when it was filled with American heroes training to save lives and win wars, has swarmed over the place. The Today Show, among many others, has filmed canned propaganda segments touting carefully selected Afghan refugees, usually young, western, and female, who locals say are unrepresentative of the thousands of covered and frightened young women, many of them pregnant, in the barracks.

Sources say that reporters are asked to leave their cars behind in the visitor lot and then bused over to selected locations. Camera interviews are usually conducted at the main gate to avoid anything problematic in the background.

What are they worried about?

Since the Afghans swarmed into Fort McCoy, two Afghan refugees are federal facing charges, one for “attempting to engage in a sexual act with a minor” and another for “assaulting his spouse by strangling and suffocating her”. But that may only be the tip of a very large iceberg.

A leaked State Department document contained multiple reports of “child brides” and polygamous marriages at Fort McCoy. Wisconsin Democrats however tried to shut down reports by whistleblowers about the abuse of young girls happening right on our military bases.

“There are no cases in Fort McCoy right now with child, 15-or- under, who is married,” Sen. Tammy Baldwin contended in a very precisely worded denial leaving open the question of whether such cases had existed in the past or whether the children weren’t technically married.

Locals in nearby Sparta whose medical resources have been drafted into the Afghan refugee crisis however describe large numbers of pregnant women, some looking very young and a threatening atmosphere where calls to emergency services in the small city are a constant.

The media plays up stories of impoverished refugees, but sources say that the Fort McCoy Post Exchange keeps running out of smaller bills because the Afghan refugees have plenty of hundred dollar bills to spend. Not to mention credit cards and cell phones.

While locals have generously donated their own clothing, the Islamic Society of Milwaukee has been conducting its own clothing drive focused on hijabs and “traditional” and “modest clothing” for the women. The infidel clothes apparently weren’t sufficiently compliant with Sharia law.

Despite media disinformation, few if any of the Afghans were “interpreters”, many did not even speak English, and the vast majority had not received visas to come to the United States, When the Biden administration surrendered Kabul to the Taliban, it allowed the terrorist group to man the checkpoints and pick which Afghans (and Americans) were allowed to make it to the airport.

The Afghans who had legitimate visas based on their time working for the United States were not allowed through. Some may have been abducted and killed after the Biden administration turned over lists of visa recipients to the Taliban. Only 1,800 SIV visa holders made it here. Another 50,000 were Afghans who had no legal right to be here and once in this country began committing crimes and disappearing from the bases that were hosting them.

Many in Sparta are worried about what this influx of Afghan migrants means for them.

When Cuban refugees were housed at Fort McCoy, some stayed on in the area. Locals are concerned that history may repeat itself with the large number of Afghans. Even if only a few hundred are left behind, they could significantly change the character of the area.

To some locals, the sight of Americans being displaced by Afghans may be their future.

 

Conference Speakers Whitewash Islamist Terror Post 9/11 and Paint Muslims as Victims

BY Abha Shankar

SEE: https://www.investigativeproject.org/9059/conference-speakers-whitewash-islamist-terror;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

Despite more than 100 fatalities inside the United States from Islamist terror attacks since 9/11, and a series of foiled and failed jihadi plots, a new report claims there is no real Islamist terrorist threat in the United States.

The dozens of thwarted jihadist plots, it argues, were made up out of whole cloth to entrap innocent Muslims.

The report further portrays the "War on Terror" as a "War on Islam," an old ploy used by Islamist groups that actually has been shown to radicalize. The report also advises that Muslim Americans "not open the doors of their mosques and community centers to the FBI and law enforcement until entrapment and targeting of communities ends," a long time obstructionist goal of American Islamists.

But the report's objectivity is suspect. One chapter's author, and the executive director of one of its sponsors, the Coalition for Civil Freedoms (CCF), are the adult children of a convicted Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) operative. The PIJ is a terrorist group committed to destroying Israel and creating an Islamic state in its place.

Sami Al-Arian's Turkey-based academic program, the Center for Islam and Global Affairs (CIGA), was a participant in a "Terror Trap Conference" Oct.18-19 to promote the report. Al-Arian wrote one of the report's chapters. He and his daughter Leena, the CCF executive director, are listed among the report's editors.

Al-Arian served on the PIJ's Shura, or leadership council. But, given the heavy Al-Arian family involvement in the report, it is not surprising to find that the Palestinian Islamic Jihad is never mentioned. Instead, Abdullah Al-Arian's chapter portrays his father as a victim of law enforcement targeting.

"The 2003 arrest and subsequent trial of Sami Al-Arian, a university professor, Palestine activist, and civil rights advocate send shockwaves across the American Muslim community due to his prominent role in promoting civic engagement, lobbying, and electoral politics," writes Abdullah Al-Arian, an associate professor of history at Georgetown University's Qatar campus.

Called "a master manipulator" by the federal judge presiding over his case, Sami Al-Arian pleaded guilty in 2006 to conspiring to make or receive contributions of funds, goods or services to or for the benefit of PIJ. He was deported to Turkey in 2015 as part of that plea agreement where he now heads CIGA.

Abdullah Al-Arian also mentions the Hamas financing trial of the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF) in his analysis of "the witch-hunt against American Muslim institutions, and the ways in which they were systemically attacked."

"HLF officers were sentenced to up to 65 years in federal prison, despite the government never providing any evidence that the charitable donations were used to fund violence," he writes.

Although prosecutors did not tie HLF charitable donations to an actual Hamas attack, they did prove that the Islamist charity praised Hamas, promoted its propaganda, hosted leaders of the terrorist group as speakers and sent money to Hamas-controlled zakat, or charity, committees.

Testimony and other evidence produced in court showed over $12 million dollars had been funneled by the Islamist charity to Hamas. In fact, the charity was part of a Muslim Brotherhood-created Hamas-support network in the U.S. called the "Palestine Committee" to advance Hamas' political and financial goals in the country.

Al-Arian also alleged that "law enforcement agencies seeking to justify the exorbitant material resources and permissive legal terrain they enjoyed began to rely increasingly on paid informants to entrap unsuspecting Muslim youth into terror plots that those federal authorities would then foil." He gave examples of the "Newburgh Four" and the "Fort Dix Five" terror plots.

Blaming Law Enforcement

At the conference featuring sessions moderated by their father's center, CCF Executive Director Leena Al-Arian echoed her brother's claims that Islamist terrorists are a law enforcement creation. "There are no sleeper cells in the United States and almost 95% of all national security cases are a result of this deeply flawed law enforcement strategy called preemptive prosecution," she said, citing a 2019 report her center co-produced with the Islamic Circle for North America (ICNA) Council for Social Justice and Project SALAM, a Muslim legal advocacy group.

A federal appeals court upheld the Fort Dix Five convictions in 2011. The five men plotted to kill U.S. military personnel in an armed attack on a military base. A unanimous ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit rejected the appeal. The investigation started with a tip about a video showing the defendants "at a firing range in the Pocono Mountains, shooting weapons and shouting 'Allah Akbar!' and 'jihad in the States.'" The subsequent investigation produced evidence that the group "viewed and shared videos of violent jihadist activities, including beheadings, around the world; they viewed and shared videos of lectures advocating violent jihad against non-Muslims; they sought to acquire numerous weapons, including automatic firearms and rocket propelled grenades; they returned to the Poconos, where they again engaged in shooting practice; they discussed plans to attack the United States military."

The Newburgh Four were convicted in a 2009 plot to bomb Bronx synagogues and shoot down U.S. military planes. But at the "Terror Trap" conference, CCF board chair Steve Downs, described them as "hapless kids... that had no money had no car had no ability to do anything were talked in [sic] offered $250,000 to engage in a terrorist plot."

In a recording, the group's leader James Cromitie was heard telling an FBI informant, "The worst brother in Islam is better than 10 billion Yahudi [Jew]." "With no hesitation, I will kill 10 Yahudis [Jews]." Cromitie also expressed a desire to "do something to America" and "die like a shahid, a martyr."

Although an appeals court acknowledged that there would have been no case without the informant, it upheld the convictions.

Downs also claimed that there are "no terrorists at home" and accused the FBI of "creating terrorists." "They need the terrorists because that is how they justify the budget and how they ... justify creating all of this surveillance which basically locks them into power...allows them to control the Muslim community."

CCF describes itself as "a coalition of civil liberties and human rights organizations that challenges preemptive prosecution and the post-9/11 targeting, surveillance, and criminalization of Muslim communities." CCF is also known as the National Coalition to Protect Civil Freedoms (NCPCF), an organization Al-Arian helped found in 2010. He continues to promote the group from Turkey.

What's Missing?

The report, co-sponsored by a host of Islamist organizations including The Islamic Circle for North America (ICNA) Council for Social Justice, CAGE, CIGA, Muslim Justice League, and United Voices for America, does not mention any post-9/11 jihadist terror attacks in the United States that were motivated by an Islamist ideology.

In May 2020, for example, 20-year-old Adam Alsahli opened fire at the Naval Air Station Corpus Christi, Texas, injuring a sailor. Alsahli, who was killed after Naval police returned fire, had expressed support for key Muslim Brotherhood leaders and al-Qaida, according to his social media posts.

A year earlier, Saudi Air Force officer Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani shot and killed three U.S. sailors and wounded eight others at Naval Air Station Pensacola in Florida. Al-Qaida's affiliate in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) took credit for the attack and U.S. officials subsequently revealed that al-Qaida operatives had regularly communicated with Alshamrani.

In 2015, 14 people were gunned down at a San Bernardino office Christmas party by husband and wife jihadists Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik. The couple had "self-radicalized" online and Malik had pledged allegiance to now-deceased ISIS leader Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi.

When he paused in his slaughter of 49 people at Orlando's Pulse nightclub, Omar Mateen pledged allegiance to ISIS and told a 911 operator that "America [needs] to stop bombing Syria and Iraq. They are killing a lot of innocent people." His attack was triggered, he said, by a U.S. strike that killed an ISIS commander in Iraq.

Though far-right terrorism represents a significant, increasing threat, a December 2020 Global Terrorism Index (GTI) report shows that "the deadliest form of terrorism in the West over the past two decades has been religious terrorism, which has almost exclusively taken the form of radical Islamist terrorism." Islamist terrorist organizations caused more than half of the total deaths recorded in 2019.

Speakers at the "Terror Trap" conference also blamed Israel and the "Zionist lobby" for using the war on terror to inhibit efforts within the Muslim community "to organize for Palestinian liberation or against Zionism."

Celine Qussiny who serves on the Palestinian Youth Movement's (PYM) national executive board, claimed that Israel "played a critical role in developing...the racially manufactured hysteria that legitimized the expansions of borders and policing and militarization and predictive policing and extra judicial killings and crowd control and surveillance." PYM has honored leaders of the Marxist-Leninist Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO).

In line with the report's overall anti-Israel and anti-Zionist bias, a policy recommendation advises Muslim institutions to "not partner with Zionist organizations. It is important to understand the role of such organizations within the broader context of the War on terror, which builds off the narrative of Palestinian 'terrorism.' Muslims should not accept training by such groups including the Anti–Defamation League (ADL) and should, under no circumstance, partner with them."

This isn't the first time purported counter-narratives about the war on terrorism have become an Al-Arian family affair. There are reasonable ways to criticize viewed excesses in the war on terrorism, but pretending there is not, and has not been, an Islamist terror threat to the United States, calls the effort's legitimacy into question. The "Terror Trap" is a naked attempt to ignore the record and promote dangerous policy ideas.

Venezuela hosts Hizballah and Fatah cells involved in money laundering, drug dealing, and jihad activity

“Report: Palestinian terrorists finding safe haven in Venezuela,” Arutz Sheva, November 1, 2021 (thanks to Henry):

Last week, Israel Hayom reported that a Venezuelan hacker group by the name Team HDP broke into the country’s Directorate General of Military Counterintelligence, gaining access to information on purported Hezbollah operatives living freely in the country under the protection of President Nicolas Maduro’s socialist government.

Now, new details have emerged: According to the information stolen by Team HDP, Venezuela also hosts Palestinian terrorist cells involved in money laundering, drug dealing, and terrorist activity, among other crimes. It was also revealed that Cuba’s foreign intelligence agency plays a central role in the matter.

One of the Palestinian cells, according to the information from Venezuela’s Directorate General of Military Counterintelligence, allegedly belongs to the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the military wing of the Fatah faction. The cell reportedly consists of at least four men identified as “doctors,” whose cover includes working for Venezuela’s national social security agency in Merida state in the country’s northwest. “Fawaz Snofar,” “Mahmoud Khalaf,” and “Muhammad Abu-Rah” are some of the names that appear on the list.

The report alleges that the Palestinian “doctor” cell is responsible for the deaths of several patients due to medical malpractice, possibly the result of their questionable medical bona fides. One of the names mentioned on the list, “Khaled Badawi,” is said to be of Pakistani origin and allegedly belongs to several Palestinian terrorist groups….

Biden’s handlers send $144,000,000 in ‘aid’ to Taliban’s Afghanistan

Democrats fund terrorism the way that Republicans cut taxes. And so the Biden administration is determined to keep sending money to Afghanistan even after the Taliban takeover.

While Americans can’t afford to buy a house, put gas in their cars, or food on their plates, Biden’s sending $144 million to Afghanistan.

The United States announced Thursday it is providing nearly $144 million in new humanitarian assistance to Afghanistan, where millions of people could face acute hunger this winter unless aid arrives soon.

National Security Council spokesperson Emily Horne said in a statement the U.S. assistance will be directed through independent organizations that provide support directly to more than 18.4 million vulnerable Afghans, including Afghan refugees in neighboring countries.

Sending it through “independent organizations” provides plausible deniability when those organizations and their staffers…

1. Pay protection money to the Taliban and possibly even ISIS-K

2. Pay Taliban taxes

3. Hire Taliban personnel and contract with companies either directly controlled by the Taliban or that pay money to the Taliban

These are the primary mechanisms for directing aid money to the Taliban.

She noted that the additional funding brings the total U.S. humanitarian aid in Afghanistan and for Afghan refugees in the region to nearly $474 million in 2021, the largest amount of assistance from any nation.

Not actually something to brag about considering the only thing it’s done is armed and financed Islamic terrorists.

But Blinken insists that this time it’ll be different.

“To be clear, this humanitarian assistance will benefit the people of Afghanistan and not the Taliban, whom we will continue to hold accountable for the commitments they have made,” he asserted.

Asserted is the correct term. It’s a baseless assertion that is obviously and transparently false.

The official press release states that, “This assistance is provided directly to independent humanitarian organizations, including the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), International Organization for Migration (IOM), the World Health Organization (WHO), and other international and non-governmental organizations following extensive vetting and monitoring.”

As I warned in my article, “10% of Biden’s Afghanistan Aid Will Go To Taliban,” UN groups had signed up with the Taliban a long time ago.

The Taliban had set up its Commission for the Arrangement and Control of Companies and Organisations at least over a decade ago. Much like the old Afghan government, it made few distinctions between for-profit companies and non-profit charities, and taxed them both.

The Taliban at one point provided a list of non-profits that had registered with their Commission for the Arrangement and Control of Companies and Organisations. The group “included UN agencies, national and international NGOs and human rights organisations” including those that  “rely on funding from a wide range of sources, including both the UN and the US government”.

That was back in 2013 when the Taliban had far less power and were less intimidating.

Did Blinken’s vetting compare the list of “independent organizations” USAID will be funding with the list of those on the Taliban’s Commission? The information certainly exists, but you can bet that the State Department won’t release it or act on it.

Are Afghan Refugees Behind the Virginia ISIS Threat?

ISIS Threat in Northern Virginia: Afghan Refugees?

BY ROBERT SPENCER

Police Chief Kevin Davis of Fairfax County, Virginia, announced Friday that “we have increased our police presence throughout the county to include major thoroughfares, transit hubs, shopping plazas, and shopping malls.” This was reportedly in response to a terrorism threat; police sources said that their increased presence would last through Halloween weekend and possibly through election day on Tuesday.

The odd aspect of this announcement, coming as it does from deep-blue and electorally vulnerable Virginia authorities, is that the threat doesn’t come from those “white supremacists” we keep hearing so much about but who only ever seem to appear as deep fakes by the Left. Instead, it comes from that so-very-2015 threat that we all know is over and done with since the adults are back in charge: the Islamic State (ISIS).

ISIS, said CBS News, “has been more active since the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in August. Officials say threats from the international terrorist group and al Qaeda are accelerating.” And according to the Department of Homeland Security’s intelligence chief, John Cohen, “Right now we’re seeing a dramatic increase — or an increase — in online activity by media operations associated with different al Qaeda elements and Islamic State.”

Meanwhile, Jack Posobiec of Human Events tweeted late Friday evening: “Two US officials tell @HumanEvents that the ISIS threat alert in Northern VA / DC region is related to Afghan refugees.” He added that some Secret Service agents “are concerned DC-area ISIS threat may be related to a report of 3 Afghan refugees who forced their way off a bus earlier this month.”

There is nothing incredible about this. Defense One reported in late August that “security screeners at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar have detected that at least one of the Afghans who was evacuated from Kabul Airport has potential ties to ISIS, a U.S. official confirmed to Defense One.” How likely is it that he was the only one?

Business Insider reported on August 15 that “thousands of inmates, including former Islamic State and al-Qaeda fighters, were released from a prison on the outskirts of Kabul… Footage published by an independent Afghan news agency, which supports the Taliban, appears to show militants letting the inmates out.” What possible safeguards have been in place in Kabul to prevent some of those jihadis from coming to the United States as “refugees”? How likely is it that the strongest, most violent, and most ruthless among the Afghans were able to muscle their way onto the planes to America?

What’s more, witless and woke Biden administration authorities have no idea who many of these refugees are. Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) recently disclosed that 12,000 of the Afghans who are at this moment in the United States were brought here despite the fact that they had no identification at all: “They came with nothing. No Afghan I.D., no I.D. of any sort. Those people were all forwarded on to the U.S., and that’s quite an admission. So many people had no I.D. whatsoever and yet find themselves in the United States today based on what they said.”

Who could they be? Well, they could be any number of things, and one of them is that at least some of them could be members of ISIS.

Related: Grateful Refugee Plots to Bomb Pittsburgh Church

Nor do authorities know where many of these refugees are. Reuters reported at the beginning of this month that at least 700 Afghan evacuees engaged in “independent departures” from the U.S. military bases where they were being housed. Over 300 have vanished from Fort Bliss alone. Are some of them in Northern Virginia now, plotting a jihad massacre?

Whether they are or not now, it is likely that some Afghan jihadis did enter the United States with the refugees and that we will be hearing from them sooner or later. One of Biden’s handlers has admitted that ten of the Afghan evacuees have already been detained as risks to national security. How many more have managed to navigate through the Biden administration’s shoddy vetting processes (this is a regime that doesn’t even acknowledge that Islamic jihad terrorism exists, much less knows how to spot warning signs of jihadist sympathies) and are now in the United States? We will find out sooner or later, and if not in Northern Virginia over the Halloween weekend, then sometime soon, somewhere in the United States.

Even worse: The Biden administration’s handling of the Afghan evacuees is just one of the ways in which it is proceeding with absolutely no concern for national security or for the safety and well-being of the American people. The consequences will eventually be catastrophic, not for the cosseted elites who have brought this upon us, but for the ordinary Americans who, as always, have to bear the burden of their America-last policies.

Kansas City: Student denounces CHRISTIAN teacher for criticizing Islam, LGBTQ~teacher is placed on leave

BY ROBERT SPENCER

SEE: https://www.jihadwatch.org/2021/10/kansas-city-student-denounces-teacher;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

This teacher was denounced by one of his students, just as in totalitarian regimes such as National Socialist Germany and the Soviet Union, where young people, so easily led, were exhorted to report their elders who deviated from the groupthink of the day. At Lincoln College Preparatory Academy, the little Hitler Youth reported his English teacher to his superiors for daring to express his Christian faith, which is so far from what is politically and ideologically correct these days that the young Stalinist was shocked out of his Mao suits when the teacher expressed his convictions that Islam was false and that homosexuality was wrong. He doesn’t appear to have gone beyond that; in other words, he didn’t say that any violence or anything untoward at all should be done to Muslims or homosexuals; he just expressed his disapproval. But that was enough for this budding Stasi agent, and he turned him in. Then the school suspended the teacher, saying they did so in order to preserve a safe environment for students — because as everyone knows, words that dissent from the Left’s agenda equal violence.

The fact that this young man’s Muslim friends would affirm their conviction that Christianity is false and that homosexuality is wrong is likely something he does not know, and would not care about if he did know. He knows that Muslims are a protected class and any criticism of Islam would be “Islamophobic.” That is all he knows, and all he needs to know.

“KCPS teacher criticized for remarks about Muslims and LGBTQ+ population,” by Betsy Webster, KCTV, October 28, 2021:

KANSAS CITY, MO (KCTV) — A teacher at Lincoln College Preparatory Academy High School has been placed on leave because of some controversial comments he made in class.

Students report the 10th grade English teacher was preaching about Christianity, then disparaging Muslims and LGBTQ+ people.

KCTV5 talked with a student with his mom’s permission and agreed not to use his name to keep strangers from contacting him. That student was in the class where it happened Monday. He said it came out of the blue 10 minutes into class.

“And then he kind of got a little emotional and said, ‘If I get fired for this, I don’t really care. I care more about you guys’ and then started to say stuff about how God loves us and he’s going to save us and how if you don’t, like, basically convert to Christianity, then you’re going to live a bad life,” the student recounted. “It was very uncomfortable.”

Students then started debating with the teacher, he said. He recorded a portion of the interchange on his phone and shared the video with KCTV, which goes as follows:

Teacher: Homophobia. What does that mean, like scared of homosexuals?
Student: Homosexuality is a sin in the Bible.
Teacher: Yes.
Student: Meaning it’s a bad thing in the Bible.
Teacher: Yes.
Student: (Unintelligible)
Teacher: Like, what makes saying that homosexuality is wrong not a horrible thing?
Student: Yeah, not a horrible (unintelligible).
Teacher: It’s just a wrong thing.
Students then reportedly asked about other religions.

“He said that he thinks Muslims are wrong and that Mohammed was a terrible person,” the student recalled.

The principal sent an email to parents saying, in part, “Both LCPA [Lincoln College Preparatory Academy] and KCPS [Kansas City Public Schools] are committed to a school environment that is safe and welcoming for everyone, including honoring separation of church and state within our school community.”

The student KCTV5 interviewed was pleased with how the administration handled the situation, noting that he emailed the principal from class and the teacher was gone at the end of the next period.

A district spokeswoman sent the following statement:

“Our students deserve better than what they got, and we are so grateful to the students who came forward to make us aware of what was happening. Once our administrators were made aware, they went into the teacher’s classroom to observe. At that point the teacher was removed from the classroom and placed on administrative leave.”

“I’m pretty sure like 99% of everyone is agreeing that he should not come back to school for a while,” the reporting student said of the student body’s response.

He said there are a significant number of Muslim and LGBTQ+ students at the school, adding that — until yesterday — the teacher was well-liked for giving students a lot of creative freedom on writing assignments.

The district spokeswoman said any disciplinary action would come after an internal investigation, which began immediately….

Republicans introduce bill to stop Jerusalem consulate for Palestinians

BY CHRISTINE DOUGLASS-WILLIAMS

SEE: https://www.jihadwatch.org/2021/10/republicans-introduce-bill-to-stop-jerusalem-consulate-for-palestinians;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

In the face of the Biden administration’s lack of support for Israel — from its open rebuke of Israeli settlement policies in Judea and Samaria to establishing a Jerusalem consulate to Palestinians — some Republicans have introduced a bill to stop the latter, which is welcome news.

Although Biden has said he won’t reverse Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, he proceeded with a move that would in effect symbolically neutralize Trump’s gesture. Reopening the Palestinian consulate in Jerusalem is inappropriate, given the Palestinian goal to annihilate Israel. It provides a further opportunity for the Palestinians to target Israel and exacerbate divisions in Jerusalem. We can hope that Israel will block Biden’s plans.

Biden’s overall stance on Israel has far-reaching implications; he is encouraging jihad and antagonism against Israel. America’s stance will likely have an adverse impact in the next round of Palestinian jihadist rocket fire against Israel, which is inevitable, so that when Israel defends itself, pro-Palestinian protests, accompanied by antisemitic flareups, will likely gain even more momentum, as was already seen in May during Operation Guardian of the Walls.

Also, last month, the Squad “forced Iron Dome funding to be pulled from a bill to keep the United States government funded.” The Iron Dome intercepts incoming rockets on Israeli territory, thus saving many lives, while Palestinian leadership has no problem with using their own people as human shields.

“GOP bill seeks to stop Jerusalem consulate for Palestinians” by Lahav Harkov, Jerusalem Post, October 26, 2021:

US Senator Bill Hagerty of Tennessee, along with 33 other Republican senators, introduced a bill on Tuesday meant to block the Biden administration from opening a consulate serving Palestinians in Jerusalem.

The Upholding the 1995 Jerusalem Embassy Law Act of 2021 is meant to ensure the full implementation of the 1995 Jerusalem Embassy Act and stop what Hagerty views as the Biden administration’s attempted subversion of that law.

US President Joe Biden has said he will not reverse former president Donald Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

However, Biden promised in his election campaign that he would reopen the consulate to the Palestinians in Jerusalem, which was merged into the US Embassy to Israel in 2018, when Trump implemented the 1995 law and moved the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken and other US officials have said they will reopen the consulate, which was historically in a building on Agron Street in downtown Jerusalem.

The US would need Israel’s approval to open a consulate, and the current Israeli government opposes the move.

Hagerty said: “It is regrettable that the Biden administration insists on making moves that divide the United States and Israel when our two nations should be laser-focused on stopping Iran’s terror-sponsoring regime from going nuclear, on countering growing threats from Hezbollah, Hamas, and other Iran-backed terrorist groups, and on strengthening and expanding the historic Abraham Accords that truly have increased peace in the Middle East.”

“The Trump administration kept its promise to move the US Embassy to Jerusalem, the eternal and indivisible capital of the Jewish State, and Congress must do everything in our power to strengthen our posture,” he added.

The new act quotes the 1995 law, which states, “Jerusalem should remain an undivided city,” and calls for it to be recognized as the capital of Israel and the relocation of the US Embassy.….

Impeach Kamala Harris for Afghanistan Betrayal

BY DANIEL GREENFIELD

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

Impeachment ensures Kamala and her boss won’t get any more Americans killed.

Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.

“Were you the last person in the room?” CNN’s Dana Bash asked Kamala Harris.

“Yes,” Kamala Harris nodded.

“And you feel comfortable?”

“I do,” she replied.

The subject under discussion was Biden’s disastrous decision to pull out of Afghanistan, preceding a civilian withdrawal with a military pullout, failing to coordinate with allies, and ultimately creating the nation’s greatest hostage crisis while arming the Taliban terrorists.

Kamala had boasted of being the ’last person in the room’ when Biden makes big decisions. When Biden decided to betray Americans and aid the Taliban, it was no different. Afterward the ‘last person in the room’ was also the last person to want to answer questions about her role in the fateful decision that killed 13 American military personnel and revived Al Qaeda.

After the Taliban seized Kabul, leaving Americans stranded behind enemy lines, Kamala ducked questions and left the country. When a reporter tried to ask her about the Americans left behind in Afghanistan before her flight, she giggled and replied that they couldn’t be a “higher priority”.

And then she flew off to Singapore where she toured flower gardens and had an orchid named after her while Americans were being beaten by the Taliban in the streets of Kabul.

Kamala also took time out to meet with Halimah Yacob, Singapore’s first female Muslim president, selected in a rigged election with no opposing candidates in which only Malaysians could compete, and to show off another outfit by leftist Singaporean fashion designer Prabal Gurung who had falsely claimed that, “anti-blackness that is woven into the DNA of America”.

After having done her part to disgrace America in Singapore, Kamala tried to duck questions about what was happening to the Americans she had left behind as hostages in Afghanistan.

Despite Singapore penning up reporters in a separate room and forcing them to ask questions remotely, she still had to face questions about what was happening in Afghanistan. Kamala tried to avoid responsibility, arguing that, “there’s going to be plenty of time to analyze what has happened” and assured the press that “we are singularly focused on evacuating American citizens, Afghans who worked with us.” By the time the evacuation had concluded, many of the Americans and the vast majority of the Afghans had been left behind under Taliban rule.

While Kamala Harris was happy to take credit for Biden’s Afghanistan policy and to put her stamp of approval on it when it seemed like a good idea, she’s been running from it ever since. Whether it’s dodging reporters or flying off to Asia, she doesn’t want to be the last person in the room anymore. But it’s much too late for Kamala to pretend that she had nothing to do with it.

As the “last person in the room”, Kamala Harris had made a point of taking a prominent seat at nearly every intelligence and security briefing. And though she only holds down the second spot, she is in some ways more culpable for the disastrous moves in Afghanistan than Biden.

Kamala Harris visited Afghanistan more recently than Biden as part of a Senate Intelligence Committee oversight trip. As a Committee member during the years that Biden was out of office, she had access to classified information that he did not. While there were plenty of recent reports warning of an imminent collapse in Afghanistan, she would have been seeing reports for four years before Biden and had a clearer picture of recent developments in the country.

And, unlike Biden, she can’t plead dementia.

Nor was Kamala just deferring to her boss. During her visit to Afghanistan in 2018 and during her failed presidential primary campaign, she laid out essentially the same positions as Biden.

In 2019, Kamala Harris went on MSNBC’s leftist Rachel Maddow gabfest to attack President Trump’s withdrawal plan as irresponsible and fumed that a commander in chief has to “understand the seriousness and the severity of one`s decisions”.

There’s no apparent sign that Kamala understands the seriousness and severity of turning the Taliban into the heaviest armed Sunni Jihadist group on the planet or of betraying our allies.

“I was in Afghanistan days before he made that decision, and, Rachel, when I was there, I spoke with generals and I spoke with troops. There was an active conversation happening around negotiating what should be the future of Afghanistan. And then out of nowhere, the president makes his decision. It was irresponsible,” she whined on MSNBC.

Did any of the troops tell her to cut and run while leaving thousands of Americans behind?

Every promise that Kamala made, that the evacuations of Americans would be the “highest priority”, that she would bring American soldiers home “responsibly”, that she would “ensure that the country is on a path to stability, that we protect the gains that have been made for Afghan women and others, and that it never again becomes a safe haven for terrorists” were broken.

Even as the Taliban were forcing young girls to marry their terrorists, Kamala was telling reporters in Vietnam not to worry because she had spent her “entire career on the protection of women and children.”

Considering she had actually spent her career covering for the likes of Willie Brown, Bob “Filthy” Filner who got the Jeffrey Epstein special from her office, along with “one of her closest professional confidantes” who was accused of sexually harassing his assistant, not to mention Joe Biden, that’s almost as implausible as her claim that Afghanistan was her highest priority even while being named godmother to an orchid in Singapore.

When the Biden-Harris administration abandoned Americans in Afghanistan, the stranded included 8 San Diego families and 21 local students. A local school district went to work to help them. Kamala Harris ignored her former constituents as she had all the others trapped there.

In September, after Biden fled and left Americans behind, and Kamala claimed that she could be trusted because she had built her “entire career on the protection of women and children”,  a school liaison warned that, “we still have thousands of families, invisible families, who are still stuck in Afghanistan, who are U.S. passport holders, green card holders, SIV holders.”

The one politician working on the issue was a Republican congressman who declared, “The Biden administration left them behind and we didn’t rest until they were on their way home.”

A father who made it out with 5 kids thanked the Marines. He made no mention of Kamala.

Kamala Harris had spent her career betraying the people she claimed to be helping. Afghanistan is just one more chapter in her disgraceful biography. It deserves to be the last.

Biden claimed that Kamala Harris is “the last voice in the room and never fails to speak the truth.” What “truth” did Kamala speak when Biden made a series of disastrous decisions that cost the lives of American military personnel and the freedom of American civilians?

When Biden allowed the Taliban to take Kabul and screen those Americans and Afghans who were allowed to reach the airport through their checkpoints, what did Kamala have to offer?

When the Haqqani Network, allies of Al Qaeda, controlled Kabul, the checkpoints, and access to the airport for fleeing Americans, did Kamala utter a single word of protest to Joe Biden?

She was “comfortable” with it. And she still is.

Biden claimed that this would be the Biden-Harris administration. Kamala would be his partner in all things, handling calls with foreign leaders, leading diplomatic missions, and tackling crises.

As his partner, she deserves an equal share of the responsibility and the accountability.

“The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors,” Article II, Section 4 of the United States Constitution states.

Kamala Harris violated the trust and duty of her office by engaging in behavior whose consequences were foreseeable to a former member of the Senate Intelligence Committee and the second highest elected official in the country with access to classified intelligence. The collapse of the Afghan government, the Taliban takeover of the country, and the fall of Kabul were not unexpected developments, but ones that plenty of people, the vast majority of whom had no access to intelligence briefings, predicted based on past and current events.

Kamala Harris attacked President Trump’s Afghanistan plan as irresponsible and claimed that she had a better plan. The entire world has seen the Biden-Harris withdrawal plan in action.

And is horrified by it.

America’s enemies are gloating and our allies are fearfully backing away. China is threatening Taiwan, Iran is accelerating its nuclear program, and Americans are being taken hostage in Haiti and Venezuela. America is in danger and the risk of war is growing because of Kamala.

A military setback is not itself an impeachable offense, but knowingly abandoning Americans and advanced military equipment to the Taliban are. When the Biden-Harris administration chose to put a military pullout ahead of a civilian one for political reasons, they turned a military retreat into the nation’s worst hostage crisis, destroyed our credibility, and disgraced our nation.

“There is going to be plenty of time to analyze what has happened and what has taken place in the context of the withdrawal from Afghanistan,” Kamala told reporters in Singapore.

The time is long since past. And the best way to begin is with an impeachment inquiry.

The Biden-Harris administration has made it clear that it will not cooperate with an ordinary investigation. The media, which was briefly critical when its reporters were under fire, has gone back to carrying the corrupt administration’s water. Impeachment hearings will remind the public of what happened and an inquiry will help make it clear who in the administration knew what.

And when they knew it.

Dead American military personnel and American civilians trapped behind enemy lines deserve the truth. And they deserve an accountability that begins with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

Impeachment won’t bring back the dead, but it will ensure that Kamala and her boss don’t get any more Americans killed.

Iran’s Atrocious Human Rights Record Must Be Addressed Before New Nuclear Talks :: The Investigative Project on Terrorism

There were days in a cramped, dark room. There were days and nights at Evin prison, with bright lights and interrogations and little or no sleep. And then there was the injection, a mysterious drug his prison guards shot into Payam Derafshan's veins, triggering convulsions and seizures that caused him to bite off half his tongue. According to one report, after doctors treated Derafshan, an Iranian human rights attorney, at a nearby hospital, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps brought him to a mental institution. According to his lawyers, he was there "subjected to electric shocks, seriously damaging his neurological system and causing him to lose consciousness."

Records of Derafshan's torture emerged earlier this month, the latest in a seemingly endless line of stories of lawyers, journalists, and human rights activists jailed, tortured, even killed by Iranian state security forces. Worse, most of these savageries were committed with the approval – if not at the command – of the man who is now Iran's new president, Ebrahim Raisi – the country's former chief of the judiciary. According to the New York-based Center for Iran Human Rights in Iran, it was Raisi who oversaw "ongoing executions of juvenile offenders ... and the detainment of dual and foreign nationals to use as political bargaining chips in with other countries."

Consequently, a group of Iranian exiles filed a claim against Raisi earlier this month in Scotland, calling for him to be held accountable for human rights abuses, including his role in the 1988 massacre of nearly 30,000 political prisoners. The complaint, filed with the Scottish police, sought Raisi's arrest if he attended the UN Climate Change conference in Glasgow on Oct. 31. (He has since declined to make the trip.) The moves follow a similar call by Center for Human Rights In Iran founder and director Hadi Ghaemi, that President Biden recognizes the ongoing human rights abuses in future policies and relations with Iran.

Now, with Iran agreeing to reenter talks in November aimed at curbing its nuclear ambitions, that call is more urgent than ever.

Because it isn't only Iranian human rights activists and journalists – people like Farzaneh Zilabi, sentenced to a year in prison in September for "gathering and collusion" and "insulting the leadership"; or Narges Mohammadi, sentenced in May to 80 lashes and 30 months imprisonment for her involvement with a peaceful sit-in at Evin prison, and for publishing statements against the death penalty. It is also foreign and dual-nationals who are at risk – people like Iranian-American journalist and anti-hijab activist Masih Alinejad, the recent target of a state-sponsored kidnapping plot allegedly orchestrated by then-president Hassan Rouhani; Iranian-American businessman Emad Sharghi, sentenced in January to serve 10 years in prison on charges of spying and espionage; British and German dual-nationals, sentenced to more than ten years in August for "propaganda against the regime"; and various Dutch-Iranians in the Netherlands assassinated in recent years.

"Arguably the most notable difference today on the ground, in contrast to when the nuclear deal was signed in 2015, is the severe deterioration in Iran's dismal human-rights record," Ghaemi writes.

This is a reality the Biden administration should know. In March, the State Department issued its 2020 report on human rights in the Islamic Republic. It noted "numerous reports of unlawful or arbitrary killings; ... forced disappearance and torture by government agents, as well as systematic use of arbitrary detention and imprisonment; harsh and life-threatening prison conditions; ... severe restrictions on free expression, the press, and the internet, including violence, threats of violence, and unjustified arrests and prosecutions against journalists ... severe restrictions on religious freedom; ... lack of meaningful investigation of and accountability for violence against women; unlawful recruitment of child soldiers by government actors to support the Assad regime in Syria; trafficking in persons; violence against ethnic minorities; crimes involving violence or threats of violence targeting lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex persons; criminalization of consensual same-sex sexual conduct; significant restrictions on workers' freedom of association; and the worst forms of child labor."

Those concerns must be addressed, and demands of justice made if any further negotiations are to take place with Iran in efforts to contain its nuclear program. As Ghaemi also notes, "the state of civil and political liberties in a country is intricately related to its foreign policies" – and research has also shown that civil and political liberties are equally related to a country's militancy, likelihood to engage in war and the stability of its society and government. There can be no stability in the Middle East, no end to the violence in the region, and no certainty of nuclear containment, unless and until Iran ends its barbaric human rights abuses.

The Biden administration must make this a condition to any negotiations in November.

Biden Mulls $450K to Illegal Immigrants for Family Separation

By Solange Reyner    |   Thursday, 28 October 2021 05:38 PM

The Biden administration could pay illegal immigrants' families separated at the U.S.-Mexico border $450,000 per person in settlements, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The payments could amount to close to $1 million per family. Some families would likely receive smaller payouts depending on the circumstances, according to the report.

Migrant children separated from their parents at the border were supposed to be reunited with their parents by the U.S. government within 30 days. That was in 2018.

Three years later, at least 1,000 children have not been returned to their parents. The Biden administration ended the policy through an executive order in June and created a Family Reunification Task Force that, as of Oct. 8, has reunited 52 families separated under former President Donald Trump. Roughly 2,800 children were taken from their parents under the 2018 policy, according to a report from the Department of Homeland Security.

Michelle Brané, the chair of the task force, said there was no system in place for documenting separations.

''So there's nowhere to go to find out who was separated or not. It really is case-by-case detective work,'' she said during an interview with CBS' ''60 Minutes,'' adding that the situation is ''shocking.''

"60 Minutes" correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi said a border station reportedly used a whiteboard to keep track of children.

The American Civil Liberties Union, which represents families in one of the lawsuits, says about 5,500 children were separated at the border over the course of the Trump administration, according to the Journal.

Many of the lawsuits describe lasting psychological trauma for both parents and children.

''President Biden has agreed that the family separation policy is a historic moral stain on our nation that must be fully remedied,'' Lee Gelernt, deputy director of the ACLU's immigrant-rights project and a lead negotiator on one of the lawsuits, told the Journal. ''That remedy must include not only meaningful monetary compensation, but a pathway to remain in the country.''

As U.S. Customs and Border Protection prepares to release its final figures for the number of apprehensions at the U.S. border for fiscal 2021, the Biden Regime prepares to reimplement President Trump’s Remain in Mexico Policy, pursuant to a federal court order.

Meanwhile, at the border, Fox News has reported, 60,000 illegals prepare for a mass invasion that Biden likely won’t stop. And he probably couldn’t, short of using military force.

But what’s 60,000 more? Border Agents have already apprehended more than 1.5 million illegals, September’s numbers not included.

Fact is Biden is watching — aiding and abetting — an invasion.

Get in While the Getting’s Good

The illegals “intend to enter the U.S. in the coming days, knowing that the Biden administration intends to re-implement the Trump-era policy next month in response to a court order from a federal judge that was upheld by the Supreme Court,” Fox reported. They’re already crossing into La Joya, Texas. 

Most are Central Americans — from Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatemala, and El Salvador — and “included many unaccompanied minors and single mothers. One woman told Fox that the economy in her country was terrible and as a single mother she cannot afford to send her child to school.”

They had no reason not to keep coming. On Inauguration Day, Biden reversed President Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” policy. That policy required illegals to wait in Mexico while their asylum cases were processed. About 90 percent of asylum claims are bogus, as The New American reported when Trump announced what are formally known as the Migrant Protection Protocols in 2019. 

And those bogus claims are one reason Trump created the MPP. Leaving a country to get a better job and free public education in the United States is not a valid asylum plea. And most “migrants” do indeed jump the border for a job. 

Remain in Mexico just about ended catch-and-release, the practice of apprehending illegals only to let them go so they can disappear, never to be seen again. At a roundtable this week, Fox reported, former CBP chief Mark Morgan said the policy reduced illegal “families” from entering the country by about 80 percent. 

But the federal court order, again, means the Biden Regime must reimplement the policy. A regime court filing said the process should be complete by mid-November.

Thus, the 60,000-strong illegal-alien “caravan” has appeared at the border. The “migrants” want to get in while they can. They know Biden and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas not only will let them in but also fly them into the heartland. 

And it won’t matter how many are sick with the China Virus and other possibly deadly, communicable diseases. Biden wants new Democrat voters and is determined to get them.

Slow-walked MPP Reinstatement

Missouri’s attorney general says Biden is dragging his feet in reinstating Remain in Mexico.

“Missouri, who along with Texas, sued DHS over the ending of MPP, accused the administration of having ‘slow-walked’ compliance with the order,” Fox reported last week:

“In April, we sued the Biden Administration over their cancellation of the ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy and won at the district court, 5th Circuit Court of Appeals, and at the United States Supreme Court, requiring the Biden Administration to reimplement the policy,” Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt said in a statement. “Despite multiple courts ordering the Biden Administration to reimplement the policy, they have repeatedly slow-walked that reimplementation.” 

That won’t make much difference to Biden. CBP has already apprehended more than 1.54 million illegals this year.

Though CBP hasn’t released September’s figure, sources told Fox the total for the fiscal year, which ended September 30, surpassed 1.7 million. If true, that means border agents apprehended another 200,000, as they did in August and July.

Nearly Half of the Taliban Government’s Leaders Are Designated Terrorists

BY ADAM KREDO

SEE: https://freebeacon.com/national-security/nearly-half-of-the-taliban-governments-leaders-are-designated-terrorists/;

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:

Nearly half of the Taliban government's leaders are on the United Nations' terrorist blacklist, a fact that hasn’t slowed U.S. efforts to engage in diplomacy with the anti-western regime.

At least 14 of the 33 ministers the Taliban announced as senior leaders in its newly formed government are designated as terrorists under the U.N. Security Council's 1988 Sanctions Committee. This designation includes Prime Minister Mullah Mohammad Hassan Akhund and his two top deputies, Mullah Baradar Akhund and Mawlavi Hanafi.

The Taliban's defense minister, foreign minister, and deputy foreign minister also are designated terrorists. And Sirajuddin Haqqani, the Taliban's interior minister, remains on the FBI's most wanted list, with a $10 million bounty for his role in a 2008 terrorist attack in Kabul that killed six people, including an American citizen.

Even with these outstanding terror designations on the Taliban and its top leaders, the Biden administration and other Western countries are holding direct negotiations with the group that are aimed at providing war-torn Afghanistan with aid dollars. The United States held a series of talks with "senior Taliban representatives" during the weekend, meetings that the State Department described as "candid and professional." These powwows indicate the United States' willingness to legitimize the Taliban's rule since the terrorist group retook the country amid a hurried American withdrawal, according to national security experts.

"If past is precedent, Biden's team is more likely to reclassify whom they consider terrorists in order to justify their policy going forward," said Michael Rubin, a former Pentagon official who specialized in Middle Eastern affairs and terrorist organizations. "To recognize that they are empowering terrorism might force the hard sort of introspection in which no one from Biden on down is prepared to engage. It's the triumph of arrogance over rationality, and it's going to get Americans killed."

In addition to the Taliban senior leadership's designation as global terrorists, the organization also brought on four of the five individuals known as the "Taliban Five"—a group of former Guantanamo Bay prisoners who were freed as part of a prisoner swap orchestrated by the former Obama administration.

The Taliban's acting prime minister, Mullah Muhammad Hassan Akhund, is one of the terror organization's longest-serving operatives and began conducting terrorist operations in the 1980s, according to information compiled by the Middle East Media Research Institute, a nonprofit group that tracks jihadi groups and their operations.

Akhund's first deputy, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, served as a frontline commander for the terror group from 1996 to 2001, when the Taliban was plotting attacks on U.S. citizens and outposts in the region.

Acting Afghanistan army chief Qari Fasihuddin led the Taliban's forces as they took over the country and exterminated the U.S.-backed and -armed Afghan National Army.

A number of other senior Taliban leaders who participate in the government also have battlefield experience and were senior figures in the group's terrorism enterprise, according to Middle East Media Research Institute.

Rubin, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, a D.C.-based think tank, said the Taliban's selection of these terror-designated individuals is intentional and signals that the group has not reformed in any significant way—contrary to claims by the Biden administration.

"The group has an ideology and has stuck with it," Rubin said. "Special Envoy [Zalmay] Khalilzad and Ambassador Ross Wilson repeatedly reported that the Taliban had changed, but never provided any evidence to support their assertions. Wishful thinking is oxygen for both the State Department and White House, however, and the Biden administration never wanted to ask."

 

Montana Cops Arrest Unvetted Afghan for Rape. Montana Rep. Rosendale: Remove Afghan Evacuees

Montana Cops Arrest Unvetted Afghan for Rape. Montana Rep. Rosendale: Remove Afghan Evacuees

Americans had better brace themselves for an unprecedented increase in rape and other sexual assaults now that the Biden Regime has imported 50,000 Afghan “refugees.”

Cops in Missoula, Montana, have arrested an Afghan refugee in connection with the rape of a woman at a hotel. Biden immigration authorities “paroled” him into the country without screening.

It’s not the first disturbing report about the “allies” who supposedly helped the U.S. war effort in Afghanistan. And it won’t be the last if what happened in Austria after a flood of “refugees” arrived there proves anything.

The Rape

In the wee hours on October 17, KGVO Radio’s Nick Chrestenson reported, workers at Marriott’s Residence Inn in Missoula noticed a young woman leaving the hotel “visibly upset and crying.” She is 18 years old.

“Shortly after the female exited the lobby, a male, later identified as 19-year-old Zabihullah Mohmand, followed the female outside and engaged in what the employee thought was a verbal disturbance,” Chrestenson reported. 

Cops received two 911 calls; one from the woman, one from the hotel who witnessed the argument.

“Officers were able to connect the victim with the resources in Missoula to aid the victim with immediate medical assistance, conduct a preliminary investigation, and take a preliminary statement from the victim,” a spokesman told Chrestenson:

According to court documents, the female victim called 911 at around 4:30 a.m. and reported that she had just been raped. She said that Mohmand is on a worldwide trip from Afghanistan and that she had just met him at the Badlander.

The victim said Mohmand asked her to go back to his hotel room, and she agreed. When they arrived at the room, the victim said she told Mohmand that she did not want anything to happen.

 

Zabihullah Mohmand/Missoula Jail

Governor Greg Gianforte confirmed that Mohmand is one of Biden’s recently imported refugees, KBUL’s Aaaron Flint reported.

“While I welcome our fully-vetted Afghan allies to Montana, this situation and others across the country raise serious concerns about whether the Biden administration is meeting its obligations to fully vet Afghans prior to resettlement,” Gianforte said.

Unlike Gianforte, most Montanans probably don’t want Afghans resettled in their mostly rape-free communities, but that insignificant fact aside, he asked Biden to stop the resettlements until the Afghans are vetted.

Senator Steve Daines and Representative Matt Rosendale agree. Biden, Daines said, has “failed to provide answers as to who has come into the country or if they have been fully vetted according to what’s required by law.” Rosendale said the suspect was not vetted through the expected process of up to two years. Biden simply turned him loose.

Unlike Daines and Gianforte, Rosendale doesn’t want Afghans in Montana:

For months I have warned of the consequences of admitting and resettling unvetted Afghan nationals throughout our country. These unvetted Afghans do not share our culture and our values, and as this horrific incident shows they represent a serious risk to our communities.… I urge the Biden Administration to immediately halt the resettlement of Afghan nationals across our nation and begin to remove Afghan evacuees that have been resettled from the United States.

Afghan Rape Wave

Rosendale is right to be concerned. When Afghan “refugees” flooded Austria, a major rape wave began. 

Writing for The National Interest, Cheryl Bernard detailed the “vicious, no-preamble attacks on random girls and women, often committed by gangs or packs of young men.” And most of them “were being committed by refugees of one particular nationality: by Afghans.” 

Afghans “were committing sex crimes to a much greater extent than other refugees,” including “the brutal gang rape of a fifteen-year-old girl, snatched from the street on her way home, dragged away and serially abused by Afghan refugees.”

“And that was just one in a string of outrage-inducing occurrences, all of them going to the account of Afghans,” Bernard continued:

Type two words into Google — Afghane and Vergewaltigung — and a cornucopia of appalling incidents unfolds before you. The mentally retarded woman in Linz, kidnapped, dragged to an Afghan refugee’s apartment and raped until she was finally able to escape into his bathroom, lock herself in and, as he battered at the door, crank open the window and scream for help. Incidents like that one point to a cold-blooded predator, with planning and premeditation.

The Afghans “are motivated by a deep and abiding contempt for Western civilization,” she wrote. “Europeans are the enemy, and their women are legitimate spoils.”

Despite what Biden and the Republicans who invited Afghans to live in their neighborhoods say, Americans have no reason to believe their experience will be different from Austria’s.

Federal prosecutors have charged two Afghans who were at Fort McCoy with child molestation and wife beating. Such is the domestic violence there that authorities have dispatched “gender and protection” advisors to stop it.

Biden plans to import about 100,000 Afghans at a cost of $67,000 each.
