How Muslims Celebrated Islamophobia Awareness Month
“Islamophobic prejudice is worryingly prevalent in the mainstream; on display in political life, in the the [sic] media and in the attitudes of the police and the courts.” So said a poster for Islamophobia Awareness Month, which Muslims in Britain and Europe marked with a series of events throughout November. The inaugural event in London on November 2 featured talks from human rights lawyer Imran Khan; Peter Oborne, the chief political commentator for The Daily Telegraph; Labour MP Jeremy Corbyn; Lindsey German of the Stop the War Coalition; and many others. But other Muslims worldwide had their own creative ways to mark the special month:
- In Florida, two Muslim brothers, Raees Alam Qazi and Sheheryar Alam Qazi, were charged with conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction in the cause of jihad to commit mass murder of Americans.
- In Tehran, Muslims brutally murdered and dismembered a Jewish woman, in the crowning episode of an ongoing attempt to seize her property for use by an adjoining mosque.
- In Moscow, a Muslim, Ilyas Saidov, received a fifteen-year prison sentence for his role in plotting jihad-martyrdom suicide bombing attacks.
- In Baghdad, Sunni Muslims used three car bombs to murder 23 Shi’ite Muslims who were participating in processions for Ashura, the Shi’ite mourning festival marking the death of the Shi’ite leader Husayn bin Ali in the battle of Karbala against the Sunnis in the year 680.
- In Norway, a Muslim politician, Khalid Haji Ahmed, wrote on Facebook: “Damn Jew whores, wish Hitler could come back and shower you some more.”
- A Florida imam, Abu Taubah (a.k.a. Marcus Robertson), was exposed as having ties to the Blind Sheikh, Omar Abdel Rahman, mastermind of the 1993 World Trade Center jihad bombing.
- Hamas’s official al-Aqsa TV station ran a music video containing the words: “Killing Jews is worship that draws us close to Allah.”
- In India, a young Muslim who had appeared on a television show speaking about his fear of being honor-killed for marrying without his parents’ consent was indeed murdered.
- In Libya, a jihadist group claiming to operate under authority of the Ministry of the Interior kidnapped twelve men it accused of homosexual activity, and threatened them with mutilation and execution.
- In Austria, Muslims protesting against Israel’s defensive action in Gaza chanted “Death to the Jews” while their leftist fellow protesters looked on in silence.
- On Facebook, a Muslim posted an admiring photo of Adolf Hitler, with the caption: “I could have killed all the Jews, but I left some of them to let you know why I was killing them.” Many other Muslims chimed in with “likes” and favorable comments.
- In Mali, Muslim officials arrested three Catholics for the crime of declining to listen to an Islamic sermon.
- In Nigeria, Muslims bombed a church and ambushed churchgoers, murdering fourteen Christians.
- And a Muslim wrote a comment at my website, saying: “Whenever I see Robert Spenser’s [sic] face I feel like having my palms around his neck, its a good thing we never meet eye to eye because he would be licking my boots if we ever did. I’m actually a very reserved and polite gent but when I hear that guy’s voice or see his face I feel like shutting him up permanently.”
That list doesn’t actually take us through the whole of “Islamophobia Awareness Month.” All that happened in just the past two weeks.
Well, what else would one expect from muslims & islam?
Islamophobia my ass Those paragons of humanity should be exposed for what they are and stop babying them with the PC.

Here is the poop and the scoop on ‘Islamophobia’ -http://adinakutnicki.com/2012/12/06/islamophobia-their-propagandists-western-enablers-who-shield-islamic-supremacists-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/…and westerners, who still wish to keep their head atop their shoulders, should shout from the rooftops – they too are proud to be ‘Islamophobes’!!
No, we should not call ourselves Islamophobes but rather crusaders, a name that the jihadis have already learned to hate and fear.
No , call me “ISLAMAREALIST”.
Like homophobia, islamophobia is a manufactured word designed to cut off any discussion, accurate description of facts or especially criticism when logic and reason will not suffice. “Phobia” is a fear of and has nothing to do with disdain for primitive beliefs, savagery, misogyny, intolerance, injustice, duplicity and all the other 7th Century conduct used to control the ignorant masses for the benefit of the few. Given the primitive and duplicitous nature of the beast anyone with a functioning brain that values our free society should be “islamophobic”.
There’s no phobia here. Only reality.
We are peaceful, as the Koran teaches. Murder is forbidden. But killing in self-defense is not murder. If an oppressor lays violent hands upon us, are we not obligated to defend ourselves?
It is not an attack on you to insult Islam. If you think it is, then I have to defend myself against you.
Just to point out the obvious, a “phobia” is an IRRATIONAL. fear Maybe this should be disseminated throughout societies.
Yes, but Koran and Sunnah clarify that the worst oppression is shirk (polytheism) and that an oppressor is he who does not govern according to Allah’s revelation. Also, when a disbeliever stands in the way of the expansion of the Khilafah state by refusing to pay the Jizyah as a Dhimmi subject under the Shari’ah, such warfare as is waged upon him by the mujahideen is classified as defending the deen al-haq from the conspiracies of mischievous non-Muslims.
“Self-Defense?” Allow me to point out that history is littered with megalomaniac potentates who conquered many nations “in self defense.”
Is it “self-defense” if someone criticizes the Koran or the Hadith? Is it “self-defense” if a woman born to a Muslim family decides to marry a non-Muslim? Is it “self-defense” if businesses and religious families refuse to pay “Jizya” to their clearly superior Muslim overlords?
You see, the “self-defense” line is often used by those who argue their own supremacist ideas. It is often like those mobsters who insist they’re selling “fire-insurance” to their “clients.”
We have seen centuries of Muslim supremacist behavior. In those centuries, we know of none who identified themselves as Muslim who argued forcefully against these horrific practices. Instead we read mealy-mouth justifications of such nonsense as “how to beat your wife according to Islam.”
When Islam breaks away from their 7th Century thinking, when they start taking an interpretive view of what the Koran says, when they consider how awful some of the Hadith is, then there can be an honest dialog. Until then, I will remain an Anti-Islamist.
No, I have no phobia against Islam. I detest it, just as I detest any kind of supremacist thinking that is used to justify thuggery, misogyny, racism, enslavement, and so forth.
No, even then, we cannot have an honest dialogue, thanks to the concepts of Taqiyya and Muruna.
When you consider that they are ORDERED to lie to the Kafir (Taqiyya) and even ignore The Shari’ah when living in a non-Shari’ah nation (Muruna, in order to instill a false confidence into the Kafir that the Ummah will not impose The Shari’ah on them once they get power)
There is just no way.
Until somehow Taqiyya can be done away with, I just don’t see it.
GORK: I, like you, am not “Islamaphobic.” Rather,I have an understanding of Islam and I resist it with all my heart. Phobia is fear, and I do not fear Islam because I resist it in the name of Christ and in the power of the Holy Spirit of God. He alone is the supreme ruler of the universe and of all mankind. The word “phobia” is used to refer to people who sometimes are accused of bias or racism, or some other issue, such as “homophobia.” The word is widely misused due to lack of understanding of the real issues. As Jesus once said of certain people, “The have eyes to see, but see not; they have ears to hear, but hear not” (Matthew 13:14-15).
Your are entitled to defend your satanic cult in Saudi Arabia where it originated. But now that you have imposed an aggressive war of conquest on the world, you are offensive and should suffer the consequences. Immigrating to the west and trying to change the law is not only offensive but criminal, every Islamist should be prosecuted and then executed (within the law).
…and those Muslim parents who murder because a son is marrying someone whom the family does not approve are killing in self defense? Those Muslim parents who murder because their daughter is behaving “too western” are killing in self defense? Those Muslims who murder Christians because the Christians refuse forced conversion to Islam are killing in self defense?
Sorry JihadJoe, your words ring hollow and self serving. The deathly fruits of your cult are visible for the world to see. Those that embrace freedom, humanity, truth, and love reject you and your ideology because our very existence depends on it.
I’ve seen comments by Islamist in Londonistan below several PJ Media articles. I don’t believe he is a genuine Islamist or jihad sympathizer / supporter. He is obviously a counter-jihad activist pretending to write from the point of view of a supremacist Muslim. One giveaway is his fluent use of the English language (correct spelling, usage, etc.). Posts by real Muslim fanatics always seem to have terrible spelling, capitalization, and grammar. The other giveaway is the “Saudi Britannia, Eurabia” in his heading, demonstrating he is familiar with Islamo-realist books like Eurabia by Bat Ye’or and Londonistan by Melanie Phillips. Real Muslim fanatics living in the West tend to be far more stealthy, always attempting to obfuscate their true beliefs and objectives when talking to Westerners. Snarky word tricks like “Saudi Britannia” and “Eurabia” are not their forte.
“Islamist in Londonistan”: isn’t the threat posed to the West by Islam + jihad + sharia bad enough without pretending to be the enemy in order to get a strong reaction on comment threads?
Other readers: let’s stop responding to his insincere, disingenuous posts.
We need to learn from the Japanese.
They allow the mad muzzies to visit but not stay.
They can come for a while but must leave. No mosques no islam no nothing from the wacky world of Islam.
It’s all the muzzies understand,stay the hell out and don’t come back other than for a visit and to drop a few yen.
Too bad we don’t get it.
Good point, Japan has not bought into the muliticulti stuff that the USA has been sold, to our perpetual disadvantage.
The information about how Japan deals with the Muslim threat of simply allowing Muslims to visit but not live there is an example to be followed. However, liberals in America keep selling a bunch of namby-pamby nonsense that paints a glowing picture of multi-culturalism that is bringing America down. So we have the external threat of Islam from without(But there is a growing threat of Muslims from the inside), and the sinister threat of liberalism from within. Islam gained a big step when Obama was elected as president and stated that America is no longer a Christian nation. Obama himself is quite obviously a MUslim in the closet, but the closet door is opening and we see him for what he is, if you know what to look for. And the giant steps that have been made by Muslims are increasing in size and frequency. I am longing for the return of Jesus Christ soon, but there are great troubles coming upon us before He comes back. Then, when the antichrist reveals himelf, the greatest tribulations the world has ever seen will take place before Jesus returns to the earth and establishes His earthly kingdom for one thousand years.
That sounds a lot cheaper than occupying half of the middle east. And better for our civil liberties at home.
I don’t know if its true, but a Sikh told me that before the Muslim’s Invaded India they did not wear the little sword thing, and were a peaceful people. After being almost annihilated, men killed, women enslaved they changed.
Jamie Foxx just exclaimed how great it was that he killed all the white people in his newist movie.
It behooves White Europeans to organize for their own protection. There are groups filled with hatred that are gaining power in all our institutions, in schools and media, and in the halls of government power.
I’ve read Spencer off and on over the years, finding him somewhat entertaining but ultimately disappointing. What, pray tell, does Mr. Spencer propose we do about the threat of radical Islam? This is always the problem with Spencer, Gaffney, Geller, et al. They are always alerting us to the menace of radical Islam but never suggest solutions. What does they want? A perpetual Holy War? Turn our backs and disengage with the Muslim world? Bare our teeth and talk tough? More targeted assassinations and drone strikes – or fewer? The best I can tell is that Spencer and the rest of Islamaphobia lobby are simply shilling for the military industrial complex, bereft of solutions beyond raising money off of sowing fear.
I believe is up to you what you would like to do about it. Their job of diseminating truth is heroic. Perhaps Jeremiah. Better still, what would you like to do?
Epic fail brutus. Your jihadist sympathies are veiled much too thinly.
Can you identify any single point of Spencer’s work that is not true? If not, then he is not causing fear. That is sheer projection on your part. The fear is caused by the heinous actions of jihadists themselves. This kind of moral relativism is not only intellectually lazy, it is patently dishonest.
ooh, the Islamophobia “lobby”! what does THAT remind me of? hmm….
you’re about a subtle as a Qassam rocket aimed at a kindergarten, Brutus.
got news for you: Robert Spencer isn’t a politician. he’s a journalist. and he’s doing what journalists are supposed to do: reporting what’s happening.
“Jihadist sympathies”? Really? All Spencer et al do is “warn of the threat” without offering anything whatsoever in terms of actions, inactions, strategies, or proposals. Nice work if you can get it. Personally, I am tired of listening to them as they offer nothing but alarmism.
Thank you Dr. McCosker for actually saying what the alarmists will not say. I wouldn’t necessarily agree with your prescription but at least you have one.
I find it strange the CFR government is helping Islam grow stronger within region 4. With examples like the above, they must have sold out to an agenda for a tidy sum of money, and power.
BTW, the only extremists, or radicals within Islam are the Apostates. Get that through your thick civilian skulls.
Yes. There’s a huge “silent majority” of muslims and they aren’t on the side of the apostates.
So that whole “fight the unbelievers until they pay the jizya” in the koran stuff is apostasy?
I thought the koran was God’s word in it’s entirety and not open to interpretation or modification.
Seems to me, the ones not committing violence in the name of islam are the apostates.
By “CFR” do you mean “Code of Federal Regulations,” or “Council on Foreign Relations?” And what is this “Region 4?”
It wouldn’t hurt if other commenters translated the Muslim words they use into English. I.e. “jizyah” = protection (in the sense of Mafia Protection). According to Wikipedia, these Muslim terms are a source of much argument among imams as to their exact meanings, but jizyah in particular clearly equates to shop owners in New York paying “protection” to keep their shops from being vandalized.
Brutus, above, most likely a Muslim in a mask trying a spot of well-poisoning, condemns Spencer for not offering a program to limit the spread of Islam. (Note that I do not, myself, say ‘radical Islam’. There is only Islam, Islam, Islam.)
Well, any person with a shred of commonsense who has read Spencer’s discussions of Islam, and has done their homework for themselves, is capable of figuring out the obvious.
Any majority or almost entirely non-Muslim land, to defend itself against the Jihad, requires to do the following
1/ STOP permitting Muslims inside its gates. Just…stop. They can’t be let in: not as legal or illegal ‘refugees’, ‘asylum seekers’ or immigrants, not as ‘tourists’, ‘businessmen’ or ‘students’, and not even, realistically speaking, as diplomats. Because wherever there are Muslims, sooner or later there is Jihad; the Muslim attempt – waged first by fraud when they are fewer and weaker, and then by open and often extreme violence once they feel themselves strong enough – to dominate and domineer over the surrounding non-Muslims and exploit and terrorise them.
Then there is 2/ – the recognition that the *existing* Muslim presence within any majority non-Muslim land, on any one of the five inhabited continents, constitutes a Fifth Column, the sea within which the jihadis swim and from which, ceaselessly, they emerge. No Ummah in a country? = no possibility of Jihad waged from within. And, therefore, all sorts of non-Muslim countries – in Asia, the Americas, the Pacific, Europe – if they wish to survive as non-Muslim countries, are going to have to muster up the courage to start *evicting* the Muslims from within their borders, into those lands already entirely lost to Islam. Just as the Czechs, after WWII, threw out their German population who had been used as a stalking-horse and entering wedge by Hitler. I simply cannot see an alternative, for though I welcome bona fide apostates from Islam – every Muslim who truly leaves Islam is one more human being freed from a monstrous and deadly delusion – the Muslims within the non-Muslim lands are not leaving Islam – apostasising – at a rate that would bring about an acceptable reduction in the threat level.
And 3/ – once one has no Muslims resident within the gates, and has stopped Muslims from using ‘peaceful’ means to gain entry, one must be prepared to fortify against and actively and massively resist all Muslim attempts to *force* entry by violence – e.g. by open or covert invasion, beginning at the level of sporadic cross-border jihad / ghazi raids, like the one that took place at Mumbai in November 2008.
But none of this is going to be even remotely possible until a strong majority of the non-Muslim citizens, whether in a subsaharan African Christian country, a western secular country, or in Hindu India or Buddhist Thailand, completely understands what Islam is about: its practices, methods and goals, and the types of destructive behaviours and attitudes that are programmed into its adherents. Only when one *knows* – from looking at the Islamic texts, listening to the Islamic ‘clerics’ loudly boasting and threatening, and from looking at the abundantly documented historic track record of the Mohammedan Mob – will one grasp how menacing and how dangerous the Ummah is, considered as a human gestalt, and be prepared to take the kinds of measures necessary to protect one’s society and homeland.
Spencer and many others like him are educating the public. Once the public knows what Islam is, stripped of all the illusions and masks with which it has concealed its real menace, then we can move to the next step: defending ourselves.
Before anyone bothers to call the doctor racist, please take some time to read some of the Islamic holy books like the Hadith. They can be found online with a Google search. And once you read them—yes, people believe and live that stuff. Many Islamic books written for Muslims are published in English.
Dr. McCoster: I agree with you completely! I have been writing and speaking just what you have warned about: That Islam is a dangerous movement under the guise of a religion that threatens the entire world. To read the Koran is to discover the brutal methods Islam uses to conquer nations and to facilitate their spread. As someone said on this page previously, I do not makes a distinction with Muslims and radical Muslims. Each Muslim is committed to obeying and fulfilling the teachings of the Quran, and the so-called “peaceful Muslims” living among us and keeping relatively quiet, will join in with the rest when a nation is subdued.
That movement is definitely underway in America now and is gaining steadily. Muslims have said that in just a few decades (Maybe less!) they will elect their own president.I have received a lot of negative feedback from people who feel that Muslims should not be feared, and that they are fine, peace-loving neighbors. I even had a bunch of pastors in Auburn, AL, who wrote a stern letter to the paper disassociating themselves from my letter to the Editor and scolding me for my ideas. But I persist. UNfortunately,it might be too late before such naive people awaken to the threat that will have become reality in America, and indeed around the world.
Let’s continue to put out the warning about the dangerous threat of Islam and the reality which may come soon of living under Sharia Law.
God bless and I hope to see your writing in this place again soon.
Sure, I fear Islam. I’ll fight or offer them my neck, but they can’t have my labor or jizrah.
My grandfather feared Nazis. He had scars all over his body from his fighting them from the beaches of France to Berlin. He feared them, but he did his part to stop them.
The pseudonym I chose, David IV of Georgia, was a king of Georgia. When he inherited the throne his country was weak and overrun with Muslims who were demanding more and more concessions each day. Saint King David decided it was too much. He placed restrictions on the Muslims. They whined to the Sultan, Mohammed bin Mohammed. Sultan Mo bin Mo declared a jihad against the Kingdom of Georgia. The Georgians were vastly outnumbered—but the Georgians won a decisive victory over the jihad. Muslims haven’t bothered Georgia for the last 800 years as a result.
All hail Saint King David!
The pestilence known as Islam can only be cured with massive bloodletting. It’s a primitive cure for a primitive disease. The habitats for the disease, mosques, should all be taken down.
Loose terms can facilitate rattletrap thinking. “Islamophobia” is quite inaccurate, for example.
“Islamofascists” would seem to be more accurately described as “Later Verse Enthusiasts.”
Those who will not submit could be described as “Dhimminot.”
What percentage of Later Verse Enthusiasts will come into serious conflict with those who they misinterpret as Dhimmi or Infidels?
Re: “There is no justification under any circumstances for denying anyone equality of rights before the law or attacking innocent people.” NAILED IT!
Because, according to the clear and unwavering tenets of the Qur’an, ahadith, sirat, Tabari histories and five maddhab fiqhs of sharia crime (“law,”) for moslems, practicing their “religion” always involves them being feared for ostracizing everyone else, because islam is ONLY an ancient, ongoing extortion-racket CRIME-syndicate, and it’s “holy” book commands them to extort, enslave, and murder all the non-moslems in the world until all other religions and cultures are replaced with allah’s. That’s their OFFICIAL “religious” doctrine!
Our modern, Western notion of “Multiculturalism” IS only racism! ALL the islamic countries are at the exact bottom of all the world’s developmental indexes – WHY? Today’s “liberals” pretend all indoctrinating cultures have the exact same (negligible) effect on their populations, so they’ve ruled out the software/programming, or “nurture” – which of course leaves only the hardware, or “nature” (or “race”)!
Besides it’s obvious insanity – pretending kids raised under the “cultural norms” of “THOU SHALT KILL!” will turn out exactly the same as those raised under “THOU SHALT NOT KILL!” – this is an obvious recipe for societal suicide!
“Tolerance becomes a crime, when applied to evil!”
-Thomas Mann-
We obey the Golden Rule of Law, which, by simply defining all situational morality as: “Do Not Attack First!” enables trust, progress, and Civilization. (See all “Western” countries)!
They obey the brazen rule of chaos, which embodies immorality as: “Our god says we always have to attack all ‘The Others’ first!” and so inflicts distrust, stagnation, and Barbarism. (See all ‘moslem’ countries)!
im not afraid of islam, i just know that all muslims are inferior cowardly child raping peices of crap that should be killed. their prophet mohammed (dog piss be upon him) has got to be the stupidest weakest prophet ever. I believe in the koran it says that a pig is the only animal that the couldnt get rape him, so thats why he hates pork. and personally im sick of these topics that ackowledge what a threat that mussies, and islam is to civilized free world and continues to believe that we can negotiate with them. sorry but any religion that en masse tries to kill everyone has to go. the only good mussie is one that is killed before he takesother innocents with him. you fight medievil fire with 21st century firepower.
People will believe in all this filth who’s relegion is NEWS and holy book is NEWSPAPER.
My Non-muslim brothers and sisters remove the glasses of hatred and read the Quran from cover to cover with full understanding and study the life of Muhammad peace & bliss of Allah(SW) be upon him then you will be able to tell what is ISLAM and Who are the true MUSLIMS.
I am not saying this beacuse I want to defend Allah(SW) , Islam, Muhammad (PUBH) or Quran. Because Allah is outside the Universe, Islam is the religion chosen for the mankind, Muhammad (PUBH) is in the grave and Quran is the Word of Allah(SW) and he will protect it as he did for the last 1400 + years. I just don’t want you to be horribly suffer forever in hereafter. I pray from the bottom of my heart that May the Almighty creator guide all of you to the right way. Ameen
Just what the stereotype of an evangelical preacher says–but with more backing in the sacred text. I read the entire Quran years ago & can testify that it is the true handbook of “hellfire & brimstone.”
