One day shall come that being a muslim is a crime and you have to deny even being one to avoid jail.

What I am posting here and blogging about may actually make many Islam haters on IC happy and ready to attack as usual. I do expect nothing from these death to Islam crowd of IC. I should say do not even bother !!

I only ask those who cares , muslim or non muslim , religious or non religious ones to be a voice for the voiceless. Let it be written that at this time of the history the target is no longer Jews or Communists but it is " ISLAM "

New McCarthy-like Congressional hearings beginning this Thursday about Muslims in America

Congress To Hold Hearings On Muslim Threat

Things may get worse, Rep. Peter King (R-NY), Chair of the Homeland Security Committee of the House of Representatives, is holding McCarthy-like Congressional hearings beginning this Thursday on the "Radicalization of American Muslims."

Quite a bit of the proposed witness list has looked like a who's who of Islamophobes,
and we Muslim Americans are holding our collective breath waiting for the fallout from these hearings.

We wonder: will we see more hate mobs outside our mosques or events due to hysteria being whipped up by these hearings?

It's certainly possible, and Muslims around the country are strategizing on how to respond to protect our faith community from more bigoted protests,
or even dangerous attacks on our places of worship and individuals.

A Minnesota Democrat, congressman Keith Ellison, the first Muslim elected to the House,

says that while it's proper to investigate radicalization, he thinks it is wrong to single out a religious minority.

"I worry about it," he said on the program. "Everybody I talk to worries about it, and we're concerned about the breadth of this."

He added, "It's absolutely the right thing to do for the chairman of the Homeland Security Committee to investigate radicalization,

but to say we're going to investigate a religious minority, and a particular one, I think is the wrong course of action to take."

On Sunday, groups opposed to King's hearings plan to rally in New York. President Barack Obama's deputy national security adviser

will speak on the administration's approach to countering domestic radicalization.

 King's two allegations that American-Muslims do not cooperate with law enforcement and that 80-85 percent or their leadership are extremists are false ................

it is very easy to accuse the entire population of certain group based on " I have a feeling  " and with  " no statically significant data " .........  

but the question is, ........  Are these type of hearings even allowed in the U.S constitution?  

As someone who is academically trained ...... I should say that the almost exclusive reliance upon anecdotal evidence to come to conclusions is not acceptable ....... and this needs to be harped upon again and again....... collection of data and analysis based upon sound social science methods which are published in peer reviewd journals are soly needed.  

You organize a hearing with evidence NOT with bias .........

 Ascribing evil acts of a few individuals to an entire community is wrong. That is very much ineffective and it risks making our country less safe.

Prove it, lying Islamist. If you can show where I said Netanyaboo or anyone else should drop atomic bombs on Iran, I will close my Iranian.com profile and leave this website. If you can't prove it, then you take your smelly, lying, illiterate, and psychotic self and join Nilou P and Sargord P, the other defenders of Islamist killers and rapists. It's put up or shut up time, Mullah Nasrallah. Cheers  :-)

Amirak, Wasn't you who was wishing Natenyahu to drop an atomic bomb in Iran first?

Have you no shame to come over to this Iranian website and hope for the bombardment of Iran by your bosses in Tel Aviv?

shotor has a long term memory, he wont forget. You can fool some of the people some of the time but... You're nothing but a slave to your racist Zionist ideology, but Israel's future is going to manure.

Case in point, our local bathroom attendant, who defends a regime that kills, tortures, and rapes Iranian men and women. And he feels no shame about it. For Iranians, spring is a time for house cleaning. Nilou P and Sargord P are gone. One left to go. Cheers  :-)

here comes the fourth tail.

This one is the Zionist (self confessed) tail of the fox. He could reappear with several users' name. But Israel needs his help in Egypt, Tunisia and Morocco more than here on this Iranian website. He better start learning Arabic. Israel's future is going to manure.

Do I hear the the fifth tale?

The mystery of the 3 West-residing IRI Groupie tails has been solved. Iranian.com has been cleansed of Tails 1 and 2, but the smell of Tail 3 still hangs in the air. Cheers  :-)

This fox has two tails.

And, the second tail also comes to the rescue as the second witness. Is there going to be a third tail?

Going once, going twice,..

Thanks Doctor Mohamdes

by IranFirst on

 Thanks Doctor Mohamdes. I actually hope the he posts and presents IRI's position (since he is supporting it) . But I think he knows that IRI is in a very weak position now and he can not defend it logically, so he rather takes snipes at people to show his frustration

Mollah you got the proverb right, but

by IranFirst on

 

Mollah  you got the proverb right, but unlike your Barbaric Islam and IRI, I and I am sure Escape have not killed anyone, we have not stoned anyone, we have not cut anyone's hands or head for disagreeing with us. These are just few examples of what your Islam expects you (as a good Muslim) to do and follow blindly. We don't impose our ideas on you, as your Islam orders you to do. 

The one that raids the livestock and kills is your Islam, and you are its tool. See the thread I was refering to.

I don'y know you , but based on what you write I think you are in the "bad Muslim" category (a whishy -washi one) who does not know Islam in-depth and Quran and Hadis, but feel the urge to defend it. Here is what I mean (read my comment in the following thread)

//iranian.com/main/2011/mar/reza-aslan

My witness is "logic" and Written words of Islam . The readers can decide for themselves

 


Mola Nasredeen

by Mola Nasredeen on

They asked the fox who had raided and killed livestock but was denying it:

'who is your witness?'

He answered: 'my tail'

Now these two hatemonger losers come over here and write in praise of eachother. What an old worn out joke!


IranFirst

Thanks Escape

by IranFirst on

I agree. I just said  similar things in the Aslan thread


Escape

There are 3 types of Muslims in the West

by Escape on

Type 1- Ready for the Final Sura now.Kill those infidels.

Type 2 - Final Sura is on the way,but until then they will tell you they are peace loving.

Type 3 -Non Practicing Muslim just here to be here...

And I'm pretty sure its 9 million of them in teh US and not 8 like I read here earlier.

 


Escape

Soosy go ahead and pretend

by Escape on

That Islam is just like Christianity.There are plenty of Pretenders here.They have great imaginations,make great artificial worlds of comparision and will go back a thousand years to compare to recent events.

Why?

you have said your're an active extremist Zionist Jew who also speaks Farsi/Persian. 

Now, what do active extremist Zionist jews of this world want?

Anwser: starvation and bombardment of Iran. Have you forgotten your position on bombing, killing Iranians already?

Don't wast your time on this Iranian website, Israel needs you more in Egypt now.

There are always Zionist groupies on this Iranian website who would accept you with open arm as long as you keep on hating Muslims and especially Iranian Muslims.

So then, I'm curious....what particular words stated during that hearing do you think were...as you call it..."Muslim-bashing bigotry?"

Please be specific.

Thanks, in advance.

You have no idea what I am and frankly it is none of your business. But for the good of others I will respond.

I am an economic liberal. I am for nationalized health care; unions; worker rights; gay rights (which your dear Muslims like to kill); right of freedom of speech (which your friends murder cartoonists for). So yes I am a Liberal but not an Islam apologist dhimmi.

Why do you even worry about Liberals ?  Certainly you are not one ....... Unless you are talking Liberals that are so bended toward Right .....  then they better stay out of politics anyway 

But if anyone helps Liberals that is Stewart.   Helping them toward left is a great idea !

I suggest you stick to Fox news dear VPK .......  that is better for your blood pressure ..........  : )   


Veiled Prophet of Khorasan

Jon Stewart

by Veiled Prophet of Khorasan on

 

is an example of why the left keeps losing in the USA. They have the economic agrument going for them. But when it comes to patriotism and commons sense they have none. 

The result is that Americans are stuck with right wing big money on one side. Or idiot self destructive anti-American left wingers. The losers are the American people.

In America we need some common sense. Populist on the economic part but sensible on patriotism. Not willing to sacrifice America at the altar of Political Correctness. 

PS::

Shame on you Jon Stewart.

Thanks for wrecking any chances the liberals have for being a majority.

Soosan Khanoo, Jon Stewart Rips Peter King's Muslim Hearings

by Mola Nasredeen on

Jon Stewart spent the better half of Thursday night's "Daily Show" skewering Congressman Peter King (R-NY) for investigating Muslim terrorists when he himself was a major advocate for the Irish Republican Army or IRA.

Jon Stewart said on his show: 

"Oh that's right! He's a Republican. They don't fold, they double down! 'Oh I see your charges of hypocrisy, and I raise you a go-f**k-yourself.'"

Thanks for posting heartbroken words of Keith Ellison.  I did not get the chance to see the link till now.    Congressman Elision is so sincere and I am so proud of those who put him in the office. Hopefully there are going to be more people like him in the U.S Congress.  He is also the original sponsor of stand with Iranian people Act in the up coming NIAC’s event on March 15th in DC.

Back to the topic and to those who says this is not an issue

by Soosan Khanoom on


I believe we will see many peoples’ lives, families and careers trashed by King, his henchpeople, and others using the King hearings as a model.  I believe that is King’s intent and agenda. 

I don’t agree with dignifying and normalizing this horrible spectacle of Muslim-bashing bigotry,  which is what I consider King’s hearings to be. 

King’s investigation has at last brought some very influential and important voices in from the sidelines where – up until now – too many have been unresponsive to pervasive anti-Muslim abuses and the fear-, hate- and bigotry-mongering which is proliferating in US public and political discourse.  Many people across the political spectrum are stepping forward to support our Muslim friends and neighbors.

That stepping forward against bigotry is something North American and European Muslims have hoped to see for a very long time.  For example many “mainstream” Jewish voices and institutions have spoken out against this demonization of Muslims.  This is a rare opportunity to mobilize and cement deeper and broader relationships between Muslims and other groups in our society.  Saying, “Well, it’s not all that bad.” undermines that bridge building and strengthening.  And it IS every bit “that bad” in my opinion.
