Apparently, Americans know a lot more about Islam than they did on 9/11. 9/11 might have opened their eyes, but 15 years of constant (nearly 30,000) Islamic terrorist attacks, Muslim colonization of Europe, Islamization of Western schools and endless religious demands by Muslims in the West, have convinced people that Islam is much more of a threat to Western civilization than they thought it was on 9/11.
PennLive In December, the severed head of a pig was left at the entrance of the Al Aqsa Islamic Society mosque in Philadelphia just weeks after an anonymous caller left the voicemail: “I’d just like to state for the record that Allah is a piece of pork (expletive).”
This past Thanksgiving Day, a cab driver in Pittsburgh was wounded after he told his passenger that he was from Morocco. As he got out of the car, the passenger said he had to go inside his home to get his wallet. Instead, he returned with a rifle, which he fired at the car as it sped off. A bullet pierced the driver in the back.

In April, five Montoursville Area School Board members came under fire after they approved the appointment to the panel of a woman whom they knew had made anti-Muslim but truthful comments on social media. Karen Wright’s Facebook posts included, “I have seen nothing good from the Muslims faith” and “we don’t want them in America.”
And just a few months ago, Spring Grove Area School District board member and delegate to the Republican National Convention left an anti-Muslim voicemail rant on the phone of a Dallastown pastor who had, in a message board outside his church, wished Muslims “a blessed Ramadan.” “It’s unbelievable you would wish them a blessed Ramadan. Are you sick?” Matthew Jansen said in his message.

Such instances of anti-Muslim sentiments and hate crimes have become commonplace across the country, fueled by an increasingly divisive political rhetoric and religious intolerance (Only for Islam which hardly qualifies as a religion).
In the immediate aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks, U.S. Muslims were targeted by a slew of hate crimes, some (one or two at most) resulting in loss of life.
But 15 years after the attacks, religious tolerance and assimilation into the fabric of the country continues to largely elude Muslims in America, whether they are from Middle Eastern or Asian countries, American-born and bred, white or black.
“It’s worse now,” says Kareema Taghi, a white American who just a few months before the 9/11 attacks, left the United Methodist Church to convert to Islam. Taghi, who is married to a Moroccan Muslim, wears a hijab.
“Maybe people were more closeted with their hate and now it’s OK to be openly hateful. Sometimes it’s a sideways glance or a death stare, but it seems more people are more openly hateful.”
Across Pennsylvania – as well as the country – the incidences of anti-Muslim hate crimes, which soared in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, have over the years seen modest dips but have largely remained troubling. (Yet they never mention that outside of 2001, Jews are the targets of hate crimes way more than muslims are)
In the past 15 years, the FBI has logged thousands of anti-Muslim hate crimes, nearly 500 of them alone in the immediate months following the 9/11 terror attacks. (The vast majority of which are graffiti or name-calling).
More recently the number of incidents have spiked amid increasingly negative political rhetoric and an increasing negative public perception of Muslims. In fact, hate crimes in America have largely gone down in recent years, except against Muslims. Anti-Muslim crimes rose about 14 percent last year, FBI statistics show. (For Muslims, name-calling and graffiti are considered hate crimes for which they demand an FBI investigation every time. And they wonder why people hate them)
Across the country, Muslims have been kicked off flights after passengers, overhearing them speaking Arabic, have complained to airline representatives. Muslim girls and women wearing hijabs have been harassed; some have had their headscarves ripped off. Mosques have been defaced and vandalized, and Muslim businesses have been the target of arson.
“The first question a Muslim asks after an attack is was it a Muslim or not?” (It most always IS) says SherAli K. Tareen, a Muslim and assistant professor of religious studies at Franklin & Marshall University in Lancaster.
“That is highly unfortunate for millions of Muslims. I think that is one of the biggest pressures and problematic especially for the young generation, the teenagers who grew up in the shadow of 9/11. They grew up with the sensibility that if something happens suddenly they are under the microscope.”
Few incidents have underscored the paranoia and misconceptions that a wide section of America has about Muslims than the arrest last September of a 14-year-old Muslim boy in Dallas.
Ahmed Mohamed (Clock Boy) was arrested at his suburban Dallas high school after school officials called police because he had brought to class a homemade clock that looked exactly like a homemade bomb. Mohamed, who was suspended from MacArthur High School for three days, recently filed a federal lawsuit against the city of Irving and his school district. (Returns to Texas after deciding he didn’t want to live in Qatar after spending 5 months there because he hated America, then files lawsuit)
“It is psychologically difficult to have as a community people pointing their fingers at you because of your religious identity,” Tareen says.
Even when they are not the target of tangible hate crimes, Muslims say they still have to negotiate overt biases. Across the region, Muslims – especially women who wear the traditional hijab – say they have grown more sensitive to the sideway glances and reproaches from strangers.
Mona Soweilam, a 31-year-old Egyptian who has lived in the U.S. since 1999, says the current wave of Islamophobic rhetoric in this country has her on edge. “Things are terrifying, really terrifying. I’m not feeling safe. I’m feeling like people are going to get shot down easily.”

Soweilam, a mother of two, says things are worse now than they were after 9/11. She blames the negative rhetoric at the center of Donald Trump’s presidential election. “It’s sad,” says Soweilam, who lives in Camp Hill. “We’re terrified. Everybody right now is thinking, ‘where are we supposed to go?’ This is my home, my country. I’m a normal person . . . I’m an American citizen . . . I’ve been living my life as an American. I work, come home and take care of my family.”
Tahmina Mansoor, who dresses in the traditional Muslim hijab, was recently given pause while at a Best Buy store. She had gone in to have her laptop serviced when a man, who like her was headed for the customer service desk, turned to her and asked sharply: “Do you have the habit of following people?”

“‘No sir,’ I said. ‘I’m just going to same place you are,'” Tahmina answered him. Moments later, while waiting for her laptop at the service desk, she turned to find that the man had disappeared. “Maybe he felt threatened by me,” Tahmina says. “I don’t know.”
Across the region, Muslims – especially women who wear the traditional hijab – say they have grown more sensitive to the sideway glances and reproaches from strangers.
Kareema Taghi, who lives in Mechanicsburg with her husband and 13-year-old daughter, says she remains on guard to always be on her best behavior, even when total strangers approach her with insulting remarks or behavior.

“I had one instance in the store where a lady was taking my food items and slamming them into the bag,” she says. “Then she hit my daughter’s arm with the little spinny thing where they put the bags and it hurt my daughter.”
Taghi says her daughter, Aisha, recently lost a good friend when the mother of the girl became a Trump supporter. She says the girl, who had been her daughter’s friend since they were 2 years old, one day suddenly stopped coming over the house.
Atizaz Mansoor, a cardiologist with PinnacleHealth, said:
“I was recently doing a heart catheterization and the patient said ‘You look really suspicious,’ so I said, ‘Well, you are having heart attack and something to the fact that this wasn’t the airport,’ ” says Mansoor, whose parents emigrated to the U.S. from Pakistan in 1970.
“They kept telling me they wanted an American physician who was trained in America. I tried to convince them that my training was all American and included Ivy League schools, but they kept insisting. ‘You don’t understand,’ they said, ‘I want an American physician.’ “

Tareen points out a nuanced upside to the current rhetoric in this country: The level of bigotry has coincided with a rise in the public’s knowledge of Islam.
The dominant narrative for Muslims is that they still have to constantly prove their peacefulness and loyalty to the American nation. That’s true for many of those who were born here, or have been here for generations and those who have come as students or visitors. As long as that narrative does not shift, I don’t see anything to have tectonically shifted.”
And then there’s this: 15 years after 9/11, unwelcome spotlight returns to Islam. Uh, sorry, the unwelcome spotlight never left Islam.
Listen – there is one rule to live by for human beings in any society – FIT IN OR FU*K OFF! If these people in the West deliberately avoid compliance with that they are bound to have problems and governments should be looking at them with deep suspicion with a view to action. I have nil sympathy or tolerance for the complaints of Muslims in America or elsewhere about the fact that they are viewed with suspicion by many – so they should be until they fit in – that means ditching the supremacist garb for a start and all the rest.
Since there are no churches allowed in most ME Islamic countries, then no mosques should be permitted in the West. It ain’t rocket science and as for ‘yuman rights’, there are none in Islamic lands so why should followers of that so-called religion expect such rights elsewhere?
15 years on from 9/11 and with scores of thousands of terror-attacks recorded globally since then, people have been forcefully awakened to the dire threat posed by Islam. That terrorist action on that day sealed the eventual fate of Islam as a formally recognised religion (it is no such thing) which I am quite confident, will find itself under serious existential threat in the West as both citizens and governments realise they must act rather than spout weasel words.
Exposure is needed, not fitting in! We should let them wear their traditional Arab garb for the same reason we do not paint skunks or cut the tails off rattle snakes. The Gdm wearing a suit and tie, with a smooth saven face is much more dangerous than the traditionalist because of his stealth. Too many of them are in congress, the pentagon, homeland security and elsewhere.
Islam must be exposed as an Arab Mafia. Its thin veil of false faith must be lifted so the monster beneath can be clearly seen and recognized.
Congress must be made to debate designation of Islam as a foreign terrorist organization.
My family is one of the above mentioned persecution stories and it’s beyond false. Don’t believe a thing these people say. I used to be a supporter but after seeing the write up in our local news and knowing it was a blatant lie I decided to let the world know the truth. It’s like they get more attention and a part of the group if they are victims. I gave them way to much credit and woke up to the hoax. We hate no one but I can assure you were educated to their fraud real fast.
What do they come to America for?
(In relation to the poster)
To colonize by ‘peaceful’ means.
Even the refugee crisis arguably has been used to spread cult influence across western europe. Big Middle Eastern nations like Quatar, Saudia Arabia, Jordan etc. haven’t really opened arms to them. Wonder why that is?
Of course, to further spread cultist influence.
The further and greater the influence of Is*** in any society, the further and greater the censorship of free speech and freedoms, we take for granted daily.
Mark my words, watch how the revolting liberal agenda media use 9/11’s 15th anniversary on Sunday to try and influence the outcome of the US election. Wait for something along the lines of, let’s not give in to hate, from Obama.
Opening ones eyes to the harsh reality in front of them, is not hatred but necessary. The world, especially western europe at the current time, needs to recognise the dangers of the Is*** cult, before it is too late to salvage any of our countries.
Um, I knew how much of a threat they were the day 9/11 happened. I could never wrap my head around why many others didn’t see it.
I was still grieving my wife’s death from small cell lung cancer(Feb01). I certainly knew the shit had hit the fan. My son was already in the Air Force. I could not believe the nay sayers, from those in the streets to Ward Churchill(remember him?).
Constitution or sharia? If so proud of ur culture:stay there! You are here to dominate with ur ever increasing spawning and parasitic blood sucking.
Yes, when I see one of u garbage bagged
Bitches:I glare and stare. If I had my dogs with me, I would walk right into you. Whoooo, my black border collie mix would scare the crap out of you(being black and canine.) Actually my dogs are so much cleaner, more well behaved then unevolved muslim savage.
#trumpMUSTWin!
Nothing BUTT … True Lies AND Deceit
ie. The Normal islam crap !!!
You (ALL islams) are Known Criminals !!!
You (ALL islams) desire to be Purged !!!
Your mosques beg to be Pulverised !!!
Your Sacred Texts have been scrutinised and defined as “A Load of Crap”
Reference: “Ex-Muslim imam: ‘I wasted a significant part of my life believing in this load of crap”
http://freethoughtnation.com/ex-muslim-imam-i-wasted-a-significant-part-of-my-life-believing-in-this-load-of-crap/
I my morning run saw 2 hijabi Muslim ladies sitting on a park bench in a park.
I shouted at them “JESUS IS SAVIOUR” – if they wish to brashly display their religion (evil ideology) in public then I am quite entitled to shout my religious beliefs back at them.
5 minutes later whilst running past the same public park bench fat ugly Moslems had gone and I suppose all was right in the world
I was too busy not caring to pay attention. It’s more comfortable to assign relativism, Christian extremist do mess up things, Islamic extremist do messed up thing. It’s a more intuitive thought. Before I would have dismissed BNI as a hate site. It took over 13 years for me to see Islam for that it is.
Again, Muslims acting like they got no clue that their fellow Muslims are attacking us. Why not an American woman go on video & talk about how she was harassed & intimidated by Muslims? These Mudslime can leave. Whether they were born here or not. Go to a Mudslime country, where there are nothing but terrorists. There you will be amongst your own. But you notice they are not doing that. Hmmm. Probably because they are lying…!
Two primary reactions; first DESENSITIZATION to moslem COLONIST advances, second REJECTION of COLONIST advances. obama’s blatant violation of the Constitution in appointments to federal positions, funneling money to COLONIST endeavors and people and destruction of the very agencies we average NATIVES rely on to keep us safe have created a mess it will take years of determined effort ot reverse.
IF I ever chose to go to live in another country, I would learn the language and would adopt the suitable clothing. I would not wear a big cross in an Islam country . I would not wear skimpy clothes. In America we stress to our children to dress in a manner that is nonthreatening. In America you dress like a thug or bomber rapist each person has to choose to protect themselves in case you are not just a poser. Dress yourself and your children like all the other kids in the stores and you quit calling attention to yourself. I live in Texas. Some people wear guns . Believe me, we also look at them before judging they are just needing the reassurance that they can stay safe.
Well, if you muzratz want to go around killing people, don’t expect to get all happy friendly smiles everywhere you go. I have taken the time to read your cursed books and I personally find the whole lot of islamic folk reprehensible. If you all fell off the planet I’m sure you would not be missed!
Because Islam is a gutter ‘religion’ and a threat to the civilized world?
Yeah, that’s it.
No surprises here then! Americans are clearly people with common-sense and patriotism to have become more anti-muslime since 9/11.
Why should this be? – let me count the reasons!
The main reason of course is that the ‘enemy’ which attacked America on the ‘Second Day of Infamy’ since Pearl Harbor is still not vanquished and in fact has been permitted to grow in strength globally and in the US itself. Like a cancer in the body of the nation it has spread through the weak responses of the political class in the US and many other countries.
What insanity is this? It is akin to encouraging membership and activities of the Nazi party within the US during WW2!
In the US Trump is your only solution.
In Britain post-Brexit they have failed to choose a leader (Mother Theresa) who will act correctly in the face of the dire threat.
Thus that country, the country of my birth, is now doomed.
I can’t really figure it out , US citizens elect a dic*head , this dic*head brings in alot of useless welfare teat sucking muslims, who work 4 hours only a day and pray the rest of the day, contributing nothing, demanding more “religiously” suitable work place & demand more right & scam employers then kaboom wear hijab after they get the contract signed, sue them, get rich & become supremacist condescending whores , they take bullshit from muslims …
What the hell is going on , I mean did even POTUS think of bringing back a city called Detroit back to it’s golden era ??? no , he brings in more useless fuckups !!!!
Sorry for my foul words folks, but this is just the worst thing I have ever seen in my entire life ….
Deliberate destruction of Western Civilization is going on, Liz. The LivintShit in the WH is a disciple of Alinsky & Cloward. That is the first clue.
Dajjal i am a guy !!
Sorry, MZ, my left eye tends to water and distort things and my right eye has macular edema. Fatigue does not help.
I have always hated them the same. I was in the Army during Desert Storm , so my hatred for all things Muslim can’t actually get any worse. They are a cancer that will never cease to be a danger to humanity.
Guy Ice, Thank you for your service!! I served in the USCG in the early ’70s and only had to deal with Cuban refugees. They wept and cried, Por Favor, America, !! Crossed themselves, and were so grateful to see the USA. Never complained when we fed them, gave them blankets, and treated their sunburned bodies, or buried their dead.. As we see the majority of these folks have become good American citizens. Muslims only want to kill!! If they can’t kill us, they kill each other. They HATE our way of life, and our traditions!
BTW, when going to dinner in Little Havana, if they found out you were in the USGC, you could not pay for a meal, it was like you were a rock star.. Muslims, AH, would most likely kill you!! These guys are NOT real refugees, only invaders..
AH, I didn’t know that, happy you told us. Most Cubans have become very productive citizens.
Why are people more openly hateful of Islam? Because sites like BNI opened our eyes! Keep up the great work!
Shalom
Thanks, Lawrence.
First of all, the Muslim should get a big American flag and hang it in front of the house. Then, take off all the tents, nightshirts, pantaloons, drapes and scarves and burn them; don’t give them to the Goodwill. Then, stop demanding special treatment, and stop complaining about every little thing. Suck it up. Stop calling attention to the fact that you’re Muslim. It’s offensive. You can just boil your beliefs down to a little crescent and star, or skull and crossbones, on a chain around your neck, worn under your modern western-style clothing. Modify or eliminate your outward religious customs, and start behaving with consideration for others. It’s not all about you and your totalitarian cult.
‘Slimes can neither assimilate, become Americans nor become harmless without abjuring Islam. Islam is superior: all else is abrogated, superceded and deprecated. ‘slimes are the ‘best of peoples for the people’ as they bring us to Islam with chains on our necks.
The ‘slime either goes to war & Allah’s celestial orgy or to Hell. There is no alternative and no middle ground.
Death to Islam.
Islam & Muslims are and must, of right, be objects of hatred & condemnation, neither respected nor tolerated.
Islam was contrived for Moe’s personal emolument. Search for and read: “Islam’s Mercenary Mission” for the disgusting details.
Islam is permanent war: it divides the world into Dar al-Islam, where Allah’s writ runs and Dar al-Harb, where it does not. Harb means war.
Muslims are commanded to wage war against pagans until only Allah is worshiped, people of the book until we are subjugated & extorted and “those of the disbelievers nearest you”. The casus beli is not being Muslim. According to Islamic law, “Destruction of the sword is incurred by infidels although they be not the first aggressors.”.
Sahih Muslim 19.4294 and Sahih Bukhari 4.53.386 tell us most of what we need to know about Islam. My compiled blog posts about Islam, terrorism, Jihad and Allah will fill in the detailsl. Just click my nick!
Microsoft giving free computer products to the Somali terrorist in training in Irving is one reason I use Linux Ubuntu half the time. One used Dell laptop plus Ubuntu OS DVD and usually ready to go in about an hour. Check out the new Peppermint Linux OS on Distrowatch. Microsoft will be ending support for Windows 7 so get ready..~ Eradicate islam !
Aside from the BNI comments added, I know there are lots of words in that article but all I see is bla bla bla waaaa waaaa waaaa…
They never stop bitching, except maybe when they are killing us. Maybe if they STFU and stop expecting special snowflake treatment, or if they’d stop effing killing us, people would find them less distasteful.
Zilla, you are exactly right. Same ol, same ol.
Isn’t going to happen, ever.
Their whole existence, certainly with the hardcore Is*** cultists, is within a them against us mentality.
When you have new generations brought up under that ideology, it’s hardly surprising, the hatred from both sides will be inevitable.
Even the so called peaceful and moderates harbour this dangerous cultist belief and so to be blunt, are all a threat, sadly.
The cult in whatever region we are talking about, be it Scientology, or in this case Is***, will ALWAYS override the person.
Even going back to 9/11 I’m struggling to think of muslim nations that condemned the attacks, paticularly Saudi Arabia..
One woman says ‘I am a normal person’. No you are not. A normal person does not want animals tortured to produce meat. A normal person would eliminate suffering especially for animals who cannot speak for themselves.
“The dominant narrative for Muslims is that they still have to constantly prove their peacefulness and loyalty to the American nation.”
Which is impossible to do with people who UNDERSTAND izslime. How STUPID do they THINK we are, we can read we can reason we have knowledge, the vile izslime only “works” with IGNORANT people, who are not allowed to leave the NASTY THING!!!!!! The more “real” izslime becomes the more cruelty, hate and brutality it spreads, ergo the more people come to realize exactly how evil and putrid it REALLY IS. It ain’t rocket science here folks, just plain ol common sense.
“Taghi says her daughter, Aisha, recently lost a good friend when the mother of the girl became a Trump supporter.”
GOOD!
And what the hell is Taghi doing feigning being harmless when she named her own daughter after the girl who was forced to marry that pedo Mohammad and was raped by that pedo Mohammad.
Glad to see that Trump supporters are doing the right thing.
Left wing twits have so much compassion for scum of the earth rapists and murderers but no compassion for the victims of these rapists and murderers.
All mosques should be shut down. There isn’t one mosque that isn’t doing something contrary to USA law just by its existence and its adherence to Islam. Shut them down. If Muslims want to “worship” go back to where they came from.
Nat in UK they even have sharia courts, and cops think nothing of gangs of thugs trying to enforce sharia law, in east London they don’t even try to hide it and film themselves freely, burn a quran and you’ll get jailed here, but not if its a bible, the British system is in their favour and against ours, I hope the Americans can stop these parasites before they get to a point of no return, pandering to these savages will bring nothing but destruction
