As an American Muslim who wears a hijab, a veil that covers the head and chest, newly elected Middletown school board member Michelle Novak has been called a terrorist by passing drivers and been spat at.

One way the mother of four deals with the stress of such situations is to put herself out there in the community even more, so more people get to know a Muslim who is a good person, rather than the far-too-popular caricature of a crazed Muslim terrorist.

Novak hopes more people who share her adopted faith – she was raised Catholic – will take that same approach, to let the world know that the vast majority of Muslims are peace-loving people. In fact, she personally doesn’t consider those who commit terrorist acts to be practicing Muslims.

“The perpetrators on 9/11 and the perpetrators in Paris, I never really considered them practicing in the same religion that I practice,” Novak said. “Although they call themselves Muslims, I really think they have a completely different understanding from myself and from, really, anyone I’ve interacted with, who’s a Muslim in the United States.”

“I’ve learned that the terrorists, they tend to be people who are on the fringes of the community, that don’t really come to the mosques,” she said. “They’re isolated. And I think anybody, whether Muslim or Christian, who fits that description – someone who’s isolated and very alienated – they can be very scary people.”

American Muslims find themselves in a bind, she says. On the one hand, they experience hatred from fellow Americans who buy into the belief that all Muslims endorse terror. On the other hand, the Miamisburg native believes, Muslims don’t want to speak too loudly against terrorism out of fear that they or their families will be targeted by terrorists, who seem to come down harder on Muslims than any other religious group.

Rhys Williams, a sociology professor at Loyola University of Chicago, who used to teach at the University of Cincinnati, says he hasn’t heard many Muslims speak about the fear of being targeted by terrorists for speaking out against them.

“Of course, saying I haven’t heard about it doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened, or there isn’t that concern,” Williams said. “But I’ve heard much less about that than I’ve heard the frustration from particularly members of American Muslim civic organizations about their denunciations of terrorism being ignored.”

Novak herself was raised Catholic. Part of what drew her to Islam was its traditional family values that reminded her of her Italian Catholic grandmother, who used to cover her head while attending Mass.

“I do become afraid, but I don’t want it to control my life,” she said. “My approach is to help in the community more, become more active with helping the homeless, helping the people in my community that don’t have food, the children who need clothes.”

“That’s kind of my coping mechanism to deal with my fear, is to be out in the community more, and do more service,” she said.

Novak also has worked to get churches, mosques and synagogues to work together.

She wishes more Muslims, rather than containing their service work to mosques, would get out into the community. That way, when the words “Muslim terrorist” show up on television screens, more people can say, “Well, my neighbor’s Muslim, and they’re very nice.” Or, “I volunteer with this person at the homeless shelter, and so I know not all Muslims are like that.”

Williams, who has studied non-Christian immigration to the United States, says he understands why many Muslims these days are less eager to put themselves out there in society, given the backlash against their faith. But Novak’s strategy is good for diffusing some of the hatred, he said.

“It’s a fairly well-established principle in sociology that personal contact with people over time tends to diminish prejudice,” Williams said. “Particularly if she is consistently in settings where she works with people and they get to know her in a more well-rounded personal setting. That tends to lower prejudice.

“The sociologist Robert Putnam calls this the ‘My pal, Al syndrome.’ When you get to know people, they just seem less scary,” Williams added. “It’s one of the things that’s responsible for greater tolerance in the U.S.”

“On the other hand, they (Muslims) face a lot of backlash right now,” he said. “And I can understand wanting to be very careful about it, and being very concerned about their own safety.”

Novak and Williams both encourage people to feel free to ask Muslims about their religion, in genuine, non-combative ways.

“We’re not embarrassed,” Novak said. “We love our religion, and actually, it’s encouraging when people show an interest. It really makes us feel more accepted, and that people really are trying to learn. And that’s encouraging for Muslims. And I think it helps to have that dialogue, and we appreciate that.”

Levels of animosity that Muslims vary widely, even within the same community, says Shakila Ahmad, president of the board for the Islamic Center of Greater Cincinnati in West Chester.

“We’re blessed to be in a good, sound, well-educated community,” Ahmad said. “I think people certainly have their biases, but they’re informed enough, they’re generally aware enough about the work that the center does that in some ways we’re a little shielded from some of the severe outward bias and bigotry that goes on.”

However, Ahmad added: “In no way are we immune.”

“We as Muslim Americans, and we as an American institution, are committed to this country, to fellow citizens of all faiths, and to our neighbors, in particular, in this region,” she said. “We encourage our neighbors to come and get to know us, and to really learn for themselves what Islam and Muslims are all about, instead of taking hate rhetoric or the actions of people who are the antithesis of our faith that are committing any heinous criminal acts, taking or hurting innocent lives.”

The center has a very active guided-tour program, and is offering one tour at 1 p.m. today. People can register by calling 513-755-3280.

Don't let CAIR or some other Muslim Dool you.

There is no chance for coexistence between Islam and the Western World.  Islam is an ideology conjured up amidst ridicule, deceit, and mistrust, by a profit pretender, suffering from bouts of confusion and fits.  Being rejected by most, Mohammed became bitter and developed a hatred for those who would not believe.  This convened him that those refusing to submit to Islam must be dealt with harshly.  From the very beginning Mohamed’s followers have pillaged and plundered, raped and murdered across the Middle East.  That is how the world was introduced to Islam and that legacy continues today.  It is impossible to slander anything as evil as Islam.  Telling the truth is not slander, but there is nothing nice one can say about Islam.  One can only lie and confuse the people about Islam and that is what Obama has been doing and will continue to do as long as three is breath left in him.

“Muslims have the RIGHT to KILL any non-muslim who does NOT respect Islam”

Muslim Imam: “Muslims have the RIGHT to KILL any non-muslim who does NOT respect Islam”

Dec 06, 2015 by admin in DIASPORA

A video recently surfaced of an interview with a so-called “moderate” Muslim cleric on a Norwegian TV show. The video has gone viral because it shows an Islamic leader in the West being honest about what Islam teaches when it comes to non-Muslims.

In response to questions about Muslim violence against non-Muslims, Mullah Krekar tells Norwegian TV that not only is it okay for Muslims to kill non-Muslims, it’s actually required by Qu’ranic law. Further the imam says that “Muslims have the right to Kill anyone who does not respect Islam.”

Host: For someone who burns the Koran, the punishment, according to Islam, is death, is that correct?

Mullah Krekar: If you burn the Koran, which is an insult, then the answer is clearly yes.

Host: But the man who has burned the Koran, would it be right that he loses his life even though he lives in Norway?

Mullah Krekar: I know absolutely that he has committed a criminal offense where the punishment is death. The responsibility for carrying out the punishment is on the Ummah, our Muslim brotherhood.

Regardless if he lives in Norway, or if he is Barack Obama, I am not myself threatening the person.

I am telling you what is stated in

Journalist visits Killers’ Mosque and Found Something Disturbing

Syed Rizwan Farook was a devout Muslim who showed up to pray every day..

The 2 brothers attended the same Southern California mosque,  The Dar Al Uloom Al Islamiyah of America mosque.

The jihad murderers’ mosque held a press conference today. They proselytized for Islam (of course) and refused to answer questions.

Devout Muslims slaughter co-workers at a Christmas party and the response is …. proselytizing for Islam.

There have been over 26,000 deadly Islamic attacks since 9/11 — each one with a mosque behind it and the imprimatur of a Muslim cleric.

Every mosque with links to terror must be thoroughly investigated and monitored.

After Friday afternoon prayers, the Dar Al Uloom Al Islamiyah of America invited journalists in for a 30 minute long press conference, during which they refused to tell journalists whether or not the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) had made enquiries about other members of the congregation.

So, you guys are our guests,” one speaker said. “And if we have no comment, you cannot force us to have a comment”.

Female journalists – including Breitbart News’s Michelle Moons – were asked to enter the prayer room in which the press conference was being held via a separate door.

Rubio and Graham join Obama in push for MORE Syrian refugees

           

In the wake of the bloodiest terror attack on American soil since 9/11, Marco Rubio and Lindsay Graham are pushing for more Syrian terror to come on American shores.

Ted Cruz and Rand Paul both said no, but the Senators Graham and Rubio joined with the democrats.

Breitbart reports the political nuances:

A pivotal vote on Muslim immigration split the Republican presidential field in the Senate—with

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC)

43%

and

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)

80%

voting to continue to allow large-scale Muslim immigration and Senator

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)

97%

and

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY)

93%

voting to pause Muslim immigration.

The amendment, offered Sen. Rand Paul, would have suspended visa issuances to more than 30 Muslim countries with active Jihadist populations. Graham and Rubio were both members of the Gang of Eight, which proposed legislation that would expand Muslim immigration, and Paul and Cruz were both opponents of the Gang of Eight bill.

Graham and Rubio’s vote against curbing Muslim migration follows the attack in San Bernardino. The male suspect, Syed Farook, is the son of Pakistani immigrants; and the female suspect, Farook’s wife, Tashfeen Malik, was a Pakistani native. According to CNN, the two met, “when he [Farook] had gone to Saudi Arabia in 2013 on the Hajj, the annual pilgrimage to Mecca that Muslims are required to take at last once in their lifetime. It was during this trip that he met Malik, a native of Pakistan who came to the United States in July 2014 on a ‘fiancée visa’ and later became a lawful permanent resident.”

Sen. Paul’s amendment failed 89-10, with only nine other Senators joining Paul’s bid for a halt to the large-scale distribution of visas to nations with jihadist populations. The nine others supporting Paul’s amendment were

Jerry Brown Signs Bill That Could Let Illegal Aliens Vote

American Citizens Living in California Have become irrelevant

AP

by William Bigelow12 Oct 201567,360

On Saturday, California Governor Jerry Brown signed Assembly Bill 1461, the New Motor Voter Act, which will automatically register people to vote through the DMV, and could result in illegal aliens voting.

Any person who renewed or secured a driver’s license through the DMV may now register to vote, or choose to opt out of doing so. Because illegal immigrants are now eligible for obtaining driver’s licenses, they could be allowed to vote in elections if the Secretary of State’s office fails to verify their eligibility properly.

Brown and the California Democratic party know exactly what they are doing; as a Public Policy Institute survey showed, among unregistered adults, 49% lean toward the Democratic Party and 22% toward the Republican Party. Any bill permitting illegal immigrants to vote would cement the Democratic Party’s hold on California.

True the Vote founder Catherine Engelbrecht stated, “This bill is terrible. It makes an already bad situation much, much worse,” adding that California’s registration databases “lack the necessary safeguards to keep noncitizens off the voter rolls.”

Election Integrity Project of California President Linda Paine echoed that AB 1461 “will effectively change the form of governance in California from a Republic whose elected officials are determined by United States citizens and will guarantee that noncitizens will participate in all California elections going forward.” The Election Integrity Project of California had joined True the Vote to demand that brown veto the bill, calling it a path to “‘state sanctioned’ voter fraud.”

Although noncitizens’ driver’s licenses in California feature the phrases “Federal Limits Apply” and “not valid for official federal purposes,” True the Vote spokesman Logan Churchwell pointed out that state officials “specifically chose not to make noncitizen license holders searchable in their DMV database.”

California Secretary of State Alex Padilla countered that the increase in voters will benefit the state, arguing, “The New Motor Voter Act will make our democracy stronger by removing a key barrier to voting for millions of California citizens. Citizens should not be required to opt in to their fundamental right to vote. We do not have to opt in to other rights, such as free speech or due process.”

California follows Oregon, where Democratic Gov. Kate Brown signed a bill in March allowing the automatic registration of all eligible Oregonians to vote when they obtain or renew a driver’s license or state identification card.

But Stephen Frank of California Political Review bluntly asserted that the bill will reduce voter turnout because voters will sniff fraud in the polls: “AB 1461 assures corruption of our elections–our elections will look like those of Mexico and other corrupt nations–and honest people will stop voting since illegal aliens will out vote them.”

Obama Hires Former Hamas Terrorist For His ISIS Advisor

by Judicial Watch - Dec 4, 2015

A radical foreign policy adviser fired by President Obama years ago for meeting with the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas is back as the administration’s new czar in charge of countering the Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS).

The White House downplayed the new appointment by burying it deep in a press briefing delivered at a Paris hotel during the recent climate summit. “The President recently elevated Rob Malley, the NSC [National Security Council] Coordinator for the Middle East and North Africa, to serve now as the Senior Advisor to the President for the Counter-ISIL Campaign in Iraq and Syria,” White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said during the briefing at the Marriott Rive Gauche Hotel and Conference Center. Before moving onto the next topic Earnest said the president has directed Malley to “support our reinvigorated diplomatic track toward a political transition in Syria…”

Malley has a well-documented history of sympathizing with extremists, which makes this appointment rather outrageous. Judicial Watch wrote about Malley last year when Obama made him the senior director at the NSC even though the president had dumped him as a foreign policy adviser for meeting with and having regular contact with Hamas, long classified a terrorist organization by the U.S. State Department. Malley’s family had close ties to Yasser Arafat, founder of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and the Fatah movement, and Malley was an adviser in Bill Clinton’s White House. He consistently exonerates Palestinians and condemns Israel.

Over the years he has published a number of newspaper opinion pieces urging the United States to reach out and negotiate with terrorist enemies like Hamas, Hezbollah and Muqtada al-Sadr. A website that documents the networks and agendas of the political left offers details about Malley’s scary past and provides links to the egregious articles he’s published, including several co-written with Hussein Agha, a former adviser to Arafat. In 2007 Malley published an op-ed piece in a mainstream newspaper expressing strong support for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, a murderous tyrant who has been credited with helping ISIS rise.

Malley grew up in France and his Egyptian-born father was a key figure in Egypt’s communist party and a close friend of Arafat’s. His parents were fervently anti-Israel and huge supporters of several leftist revolutionary liberation movements, especially the Palestinian cause.

Malley published a piece in a mainstream newspaper declaring that Israel was responsible for the failure of Bill Clinton’s peace talks with the Palestinians. Malley attended the 2000 event, which was held at Camp David because it was the site of the landmark 1978 Israeli-Egyptian peace accords.

Shortly after Obama got elected president Israel’s largest news site revealed that the Arabic-language newspaper Al-Hayat reported that Hamas engaged in talks with Obama for months through his “fired” adviser. The article quotes Ahmad Yousuf, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh’s political advisor, saying this: “We were in contact with a number of Obama’s aides through the Internet, and later met with some of them in Gaza, but they advised us not to come out with any statements, as they may have a negative effect on his election campaign and be used by Republican candidate John McCain (to attack Obama).”

How can Americans possibly confide in Malley to help dismantle what is arguably the world’s deadliest and most brazen terrorist group? A Florida-based Jewish weekly helps answer this, albeit with another question: “With a history of dissing Israel, snuggling up to Hamas, shielding Assad, and promoting the containment of a nuclear-armed Iran, is it any surprise that Malley is Obama’s choice to spearhead the U.S. response to ISIS?”

 

Motive Unknown’–The Consequences of Jihad Denial

Geller: ‘Motive Unknown’–The Consequences of Jihad Denial

Share on email

James Quigg/The Victor Valley Daily Press via AP

Obama shrugged. Hillary shrugged. The media shrugged.

“We do not yet know why this terrible event occurred,” said Barack Obama.

“No matter what motivation these shooters had, we can say one thing for certain—they shouldn’t have been able to do this,” said Hillary Clinton.

“Motive unknown.” That’s the mantra from the Obama administration and his running dogs in the media. Obama rushed to say that the motive was undetermined, but when a leftist follower of the Southern Poverty Law Center murdered three Muslims in North Carolina, Obama immediately ascribed the killings to “Islamophobia,” when in fact they were the act of a deranged man who was enraged over a parking dispute, and who had repeatedly said that he preferred Muslims to Christians.

Here’s the motive: it has now been revealed that as the San Bernardino jihad attack was taking place, Syed Farook’s wife and accomplice, Tashfeen Malik, put up a post on Facebook in which she pledged allegiance to the Islamic State (ISIS).

This was jihad terror. This was premeditated, methodical, and well planned. The bombs left behind at the site were for first responders. They deleted their email accounts and smashed their cellphones, no doubt to cover up their contacts with other jihadis.

Some have downplayed this connection to other jihadis, saying that the attack was inspired, not directed, by ISIS. That is a distinction without a difference. ISIS has directed devout Muslims to “think globally, act locally.” They have directed Muslims who accept their authority as the caliphate to kill American civilians on U.S. soil. That is their explicit directive, and that is exactly what this cell did. Yet Josh Earnest in Friday’s press conference still refuses to acknowledge the terror connection.

Meanwhile, there are still more unanswered questions than ones on which we have clarity. The Feds have not even been able to tell us exactly who Tashfeen Malik (if that is her real name) is, or provide a picture of her, or records of where she came from, when she married Syed Farook, when their child was born, or proof that Syed is indeed the father and that she had a legitimate claim to be in this country.

Tashfeen Malik was subjected to background checks by the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security before she was allowed to enter the country. She passed both. That is a stunning indictment of Obama’s vaunted “vetting process” for the Syrian refugees he is intent upon inflicting upon this country.

You can avoid reality, but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality. Muslim immigration, the rise of Islamic jihad armies in the Middle East and Africa, and the sanction (even exaltation) of jihad front groups in the U.S. such as the Hamas-tied Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) (how did they get to the family so fast?) have provided the enemy with ample opportunity to grow exponentially. And they have taken full advantage of that opportunity.

In the wake of this jihad attack, Obama wishes to disarm the victims — as if that would stop the jihadists. Machete-wielding Muslims slaughtered a dozen Chinese commuters and wounded over a hundred at a major commuter train station in China. The commuters had no weapons – no way to fight back.

And it has happened here. How would gun control have stopped the Muslim college student in California who recently stabbed four innocent people while carrying an ISIS flag, with the attendant references to Allah and beheadings?

San Bernardino is in one of the most stringent gun control states in the country. The fact is that these mass shootings usually take place in gun-free zones — except for the attempted jihad massacre at our free speech event in Garland, Texas last May. That jihad attempt had the best of all possible outcomes, because the jihadis were greeted by armed freedom fighters.

Besides gun control, the media and Obama’s administration are obsessed with the prospect of an “anti-Muslim backlash.” Obama, Hillary, Attorney General Loretta Lynch, the media — they are all groveling before Islam, scrubbing and mopping up after this latest jihad attack, and still it’s not enough. Devout Muslims slaughtered innocent Americans at a Christmas party, and now comes the second wave of the attack — charges of racism (Islam is not a race) and “Islamophobia.”

American Muslims for the umpteenth time are wailing about a fear of reprisals – reprisals that never actually come in reality, but are always the focus of media obsession after every jihad attack. The blood of American Christians and Jews is still on the floor and the walls of a Christmas party, and they are playing the victim. How savage.

Why aren’t American Muslims mourning our dead? Why aren’t American Muslims using their money and influence to call for an “enlightenment” in Islam, a purge of the Quran and the Islamic texts and teachings that call for jihad and genocide?

Law enforcement has been just as compromised as the government and the media: I have been watching CNN — yes, unbelievable (a first), but the failings of FOX are too big to stomach. So imagine my horror when I switched it on and saw swarms of reporters inside the home of Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik. Qurans everywhere, passports, drivers licenses of family members are strewn about.

They released the crime scene? There were no fingerprint forensics anywhere. How do they know who came and went into that apartment?

The FBI did this? Even CNN’s law enforcement analysts appeared shocked by what CNN’s reporters (and other reporters) were doing. They had never seen a crime scene of this magnitude opened to the public so early.

This was an Islamic cell with many people involved. Who gave the order to release the scene? Obama? And how much evidence was destroyed by these reporters tramping through the house? How much of the jihad killers’ activities and contacts were obscured and lost forever?

What’s the result of the universal government, law enforcement and media denial and obfuscation of the reality of the Islamic jihad against the United States? San Bernardino
— and there will be many more San Bernardinos.

Obama’s jihad-free counter terror policies and jihad denial is the cause of this catastrophic intelligence and law enforcement failure. Obama has blood on his hands (adding to the rivers of blood of Christians in Syria and Iraq.) But the message from the administration is, Get used to it. Disarm and get used to it. And the media follows after him like the man with the shovel after the circus elephant, always eager to clean up the messes he makes.

RNC Chairman Has Very Clear Demand for Obama, Clinton After Latest San Bernardino Revelations

Dec. 4, 2015 9:53pm Oliver Darcy

Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus has a very clear demand for President Barack Obama in light of the latest San Bernardino revelations linking the attack to terrorism: stop using the attack to push gun control.

Priebus assailed Obama and Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton after evidence surfaced showing one of the attackers made an online pledge to an Islamic State leader. The FBI also announced that it would be investigating the attack as “an act of terrorism.”

Alex Wong/Getty Images

“It’s now clear Wednesday’s tragic attack in San Bernardino was an act of radical Islamic terrorism with possible ties to ISIS. The fact Hillary Clinton and President Obama continue to exploit this situation to push for more restrictions on Americans’ Second Amendment rights is as deplorable as it is dangerous,” Priebus said in a statement. “Apparently the Democrat Party isn’t willing to let this ‘crisis go to waste,’ even if it means making it harder for Americans to protect themselves after terrorists again showed their ability to strike on U.S. soil.”

“Apparently the Democrat Party isn’t willing to let this ‘crisis go to waste.’”       

He continued, suggesting the attack is “another troubling reminder of how badly President Obama and the Democrat Party have handled the threat of radical Islamic terrorism and the rise of ISIS.”

“Just yesterday, President Obama said the United States was safe from an attack by ISIS – a statement Wednesday’s attack shows is completely misguided,” Priebus said. “The truth is, President Obama and Hillary Clinton underestimated the threat of ISIS from the very beginning and have supported a failed strategy ever since.”

“Warnings were ignored and now it appears the intelligence was being manipulated to satisfy political concerns,” he concluded. “In light of Wednesday’s attack, the picture this paints is truly alarming and shows President Obama, Hillary Clinton, and the Democrat Party as a whole cannot be trusted to keep America safe from radical Islamic terrorists.”

Muslim Police Chief Shows Act Of Complete Disrespect To America And Is Under Heavy Fire For It

Posted by Bob Amoroso / July 16, 2015

Anyone who has ever served in uniform knows to stand at attention and to salute the flag during the pledge of allegiance; it’s a vital part of the “military code of conduct”. And for a police officer especially an Assistant Chief of Police not to pay allegiance by a simple act of placing your hand over you heart or saluting the flag speaks volumes of that police officers act of defiance.

And so when the Assistant Chief of Police in Miami who is also a Muslim refuses to pay tribute to the flag, it’s easy to surmise that her beliefs have something to do with disrespecting the flag, which had Fraternal Order of Police President Javier Ortiz livid after he witnessed the action or inaction of Assistant Chief of Police Anita Najiy.

“If you’re not pledging allegiance to the United States, my question is what country are you pledging allegiance to? Anyone who isn’t offended by that is not American, because when you become a U.S. citizen, you pledge allegiance to the U.S.”

Ortiz claims that Najiy failed to display the proper courtesy and etiquette that “must be exercised when wearing a law enforcement uniform.”

Ortiz continues; “The flag is a symbol of our country, what is the difference if I decide to light a U.S. flag on fire in a police uniform?” he said, stating that any form of disrespect towards the flag while in uniform should not be tolerated.

However Assistant Chief of Police Najiy isn’t the only public official to disrespect “Old Glory!” Back in 2007 then Gov. Bill Richardson along with then Sen. Hillary Clinton and President Obama were at an event in which the pledge of allegiance was played, and there stood Obama with his hands by is side, as if it would demean him to salute our flag.

Obviously a lot of time as passed since 2007, and perhaps we now have a much better understanding of what "Islam" is all about, perhaps  Mustafa Carroll, the head of the Dallas-Fort Worth branch of CAIR said it best   “If we are practicing Muslims, we are above the law of the land.”

San Bernardino shooting victim from N.J. had argued politics with suspect, friend says

One of the victims in the San Bernardino massacre is a former New Jersey man who verbally sparred about Israel two weeks ago with a man whom police have identified as one of the shooters, a friend of the victim said Thursday in a telephone interview.

Nicholas Thalasinos

Nicholas Thalasinos, 52, a health inspector who moved from Cape May County 13 years ago, enjoyed arguing about politics with his co-workers, the friend, Kuuleme Stephens, said.

Stephens, who lives in Arizona, said she called Thalasinos on his cellphone two weeks ago as he argued with a co-worker whom he identified as Syed Farook. Authorities have said a man named Syed Rizwan Farook, who worked at the San Bernardino County Health Department with Thalasinos and other victims, was a gunman in Wednesday’s massacre, along with his wife. They killed 14 people, including Thalasinos, at a holiday party for health workers, authorities said.

Related:  Attackers in California shooting had thousands of bullets

Stephens said that she heard Farook over the phone talking loudly two weeks ago, but that the tone of the argument seemed passionate rather than threatening. “I can’t get anywhere with him,” Thalasinos said, according to Stephens.

The day before the shooting, Thalasinos, an outspoken conservative and strong proponent of Israel, had posted on his Facebook page that he received a threatening message from someone purporting to be from Ukraine and whose Facebook page included a photo of a man holding a gun and pointing it into the air. The message said, according to his post, that “you will die and never see Israel as country believe me never.” Thalasinos wrote that the sender appeared to believe he is Jewish.

“A great compliment,” Thalasinos wrote.

Stephens said that Thalasinos was a member of the Greek Orthodox Church but had recently converted to become a Messianic Jew, a form of Christianity that includes elements of Judaism. His wife, Jennifer, a schoolteacher, told the Los Angeles Times that she shared her husband’s religion and that he wore a tie clip with the Star of David on it.

“He wanted to serve the Lord and bring more people to the Lord,” she told the Times, adding that her husband was outspoken about Islamic terrorism. “I’m sure he went down fighting and protecting people,” she said.

She also said that her husband and Farook “got along.”

‘Heated, not violent’

Stephens said her friend did not seem to be afraid of Farook: “These conversations always become heated, but not violent,” she said. “I don’t think he saw that coming, that he could be violent.” She said she had not been contacted by the FBI or other authorities investigating the case but expected to get a call from them.

Thalasinos, she said, was “pro everything American” and enjoyed talking about politics, including his support for the Second Amendment right to bear arms and his antiabortion stance.

He posted on his Facebook page numerous links to articles that appeared to reflect his political views. Several referred to Islamic terrorism, some were critical of President Obama, particularly the nuclear treaty with Iran, and some were antiabortion. Last week, on the day of a fatal shooting at a Planned Parenthood agency in Colorado and five days before he was killed by gunfire, he posted: “WHY is the LIBERAL MEDIA so UPSET there is a SOCIOPATHIC KILLER in a Planned Parenthood office?!? INNOCENT BABIES are DISMEMBERED there EVERY DAY.”

Juda Myers of Texas said she got to know Thalasinos because of his support for an organization she founded that supports women who become pregnant after being raped. She called him “a passionate guy” who led his life according to his religious beliefs and who freely shared his thoughts on social media sites. “He wanted people to know the Messiah,” she said. “We are Christians. It is not something that you can set aside.”

Worked in Cape May

Thalasinos had worked as an environmental health specialist for Cape May County 13 years ago, conducting food inspections at restaurants as part of his duties, said the county freeholder director, Gerry Thornton. He worked for the county from 1988 to 2002, when he moved to California. Thornton said Thalasinos had two children, who are now adults.

“He was part of the county family,” Thornton said. “He was a stickler for regulations and really protected this county.”

Thalasinos met his wife 14 years ago on an Internet site devoted to a 1980s TV show called “Beauty and the Beast,” according to a posting on gofundme.com. According to the posting, he and his wife “shared their love for science fiction and fantasy and had a very deep, spiritual relationship.” It went on to say they “went through quite a lot” during their time together, including “loss” and “health issues” but that they “always had each other to depend on.”

Stephens said Thalasinos recently had “a growth” removed from his head.

Thalasinos, she said, believed he could engage in political discussions with people whose views differed from his own and that they could “come to a common ground.” However, she said, at times he became upset when the tone of the arguments grew harsh. “He didn’t know how people can get along if they can’t even talk,” she said.

Facebook Can’t Handle The Truth: Censors Image of Muslim Kids Playing With Human Head

-By Warner Todd Huston

Amidst President Obama’s dangerous campaign to import hundreds of thousands of Syrian “refugees” into the U.S.–any number of whom WILL be ISIS terrorists–Facebook revealed its desire to help Obama by censoring a photo of a group of Muslim kids joyously playing with a human head as a toy.

Last week I posted to my personal Facebook account a photo of a pack of Muslim boys playing with a human head.

Along with the photo I wrote that the image was “A reminder: Here’s some of Obama’s “orphans” so deserving of getting imported into the U.S.”

This quip of mine was in reference to Obama’s absurd jab at Republicans who oppose his ISIS member importation policy where he said that Republicans were afraid of “widows and orphans.”

In any case, I posted the photo to show that we do, indeed, have something to worry about where it concerns Obama’s “orphans.” After all, these kids are raised to have no respect for “infidels,” they are raised to think that non-Muslim lives are not worth anything. And that is what Obama wants to bring here!

Further, we have a great example of a “widow” and her “orphans” who were allowed to come here without restriction in the persons of the Tsnaraev brothers who later became notorious as the Boston marathon bombers. These two young men were Muslim “orphans” from Kyrgyzstan who ended up as imported terrorists.

Yet, Facebook refused to allow my legitimate politically poignant photo of Muslim boys playing with a human head to stay up.

Facebook can’t handle the truth.

San Bernardino Taught Us 2 Things, Gun Control Doesn't Work And Liberals Are Idiots

Zoe Kazan led the pack by asking Hillary Clinton to step in and help secure gun control. Kazan tweeted, “Hillary Clinton help us mobilize. How can I use my powers as a citizen to help bring greater gun control to my country? How can I act NOW?” Olivia Wilde responded to Kazan’s tweet by tweeting, “I am with you.”

 

Next came Pixel’s Josh Gad, who tweeted, “How many times a month, week, or day must there be mass shootings 4 us to demand gun control? #WhenIsEnoughEnough? Beyond sad. Prayers 2 all.”

Gad was followed by Billy Eichner, who responded to people offering thoughts and prayers for victims by tweeting, “Your ‘thoughts and prayers’ don’t mean a damn thing. #GunControlNOW.”

None of the Hollywood personalities mentioned that California has some of the most stringent gun controls of any state in the US, including expanded background checks and registration requirements for “assault weapons.”

The Origins of Islam

John Q. Adams -

John Quincy Adams on Islam

President John Quincy Adams in 1830, on Islam:

In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him... [capitals in original].

The precept of the koran is, perpetual war against all who deny, that Mahomet is the prophet of God. The vanquished may purchase their lives, by the payment of tribute; the victorious may be appeased by a false and delusive promise of peace; and the faithful follower of the prophet, may submit to the imperious necessities of defeat: but the command to propagate the Moslem creed by the sword is always obligatory, when it can be made effective. The commands of the prophet may be performed alike, by fraud, or by force.

The fundamental doctrine of the Christian religion, is the extirpation of hatred from the human heart. It forbids the exercise of it, even towards enemies. There is no denomination of Christians, which denies or misunderstands this doctrine. All understand it alike—all acknowledge its obligations; and however imperfectly, in the purposes of Divine Providence, its efficacy has been shown in the practice of Christians, it has not been wholly inoperative upon them. Its effect has been upon the manners of nations. It has mitigated the horrors of war—it has softened the features of slavery—it has humanized the intercourse of social life. The unqualified acknowledgement of a duty does not, indeed, suffice to insure its performance. Hatred is yet a passion, but too powerful upon the hearts of Christians. Yet they cannot indulge it, except by the sacrifice of their principles, and the conscious violation of their duties. No state paper from a Christian hand, could, without trampling the precepts of its Lord and Master, have commenced by an open proclamation of hatred to any portion of the human race. The Ottoman lays it down as the foundation of his discourse.

Islam is based, historically and theologically, on hatred and violence. It has spread only by war, and is today the source-- from Tunisia to Libya to Egypt to Darfur to Gaza to Syria to Afghanistan to Iran-- of a disproportionate share of human misery, exceeded only by National Socialism (of which Islam was an enthusiastic ally) and State Atheism in the modern world.

We need to speak truthfully about Islam, just as we need to speak truthfully about the horror of Nazism and atheism in power. The fervent struggle by Muslims to muzzle freedom of speech and freedom of religion is evidence that they understand the vulnerability of their ideology in the free exchange of ideas among free men.
