Ilhan Omar’s Islamophobia Resolution: Bad Idea Posted on April 23, 2023 by Baron Bodissey The following report by Clare Lopez was published earlier this month by Sharia TipSheet. Ilhan Omar’s Islamophobia Resolution: Bad Idea by Clare M. Lopez At a press conference held outside the U.S. Capitol on 23 March 2023, the first day of Ramadan, Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib, (D-MI) jointly introduced a bill they claim is intended to combat “Islamophobia”. The bill was co-sponsored by 20 Democrat Party members of the U.S. House of Representatives. In December 2021, Omar led an initiative in the House to pass a bill that would establish a special U.S. government envoy on “Islamophobia”, although the term is nowhere officially defined. To date, no “Islamophobia” envoy has yet been designated by the Biden administration, although Secretary of State Antony Blinken did issue a formal statement on 15 March 2023 in support of “International Day to Combat Islamophobia”. H.Res.250 — 118th Congress (2023-2024) (track it here — no action as of this writing after it was introduced in the House) “Tell your Congress Rep to reject this ‘Islamophobia’ Resolution being promoted by Ilhan Omar and designated terrorist group CAIR”, Bare Naked Islam, 27 March 2023“TOMORROW: CAIR to Join Press Conference Hosted by Rep. Omar to Announce Resolution Combating Islamophobia”, CAIR, March 22, 2023“Observing the First International Day to Combat Islamophobia”, Press Statement by Secretary of State Antony Blinken, March 15, 2023Last Congress: “House passes Ilhan Omar’s legislation to combat Islamophobia”, by Daniella Diaz, CNN, December 14, 2021Editor’s Note As the Sharia TipSheet noted on 11/7/22, Islamophobia legislation is a bad idea, starting with the free speech problems it would create. Defining ‘Islamophobia’ was under consideration in Britain in 2022, but the government abandoned the attempt. B’nai Brith points out the problems with trying to define the term: B’nai Brith: “The group says the broad definition could lead to students or staff being punished for expressing dislike for the Republic of Iran’s persecution of LGBTQ people or restrictions placed on women in Saudi Arabia.” British government officials said defining the term would also hamper counterterrorism operations and stoke community tensions. Moreover, Islamophobia legislation criminalizes scholarship and public debate reaching to, among other things, university cultural studies, and political science, as well as criminal justice studies textbooks, discussions, research papers, theses, and dissertations. For example, see page 11, 38, and 93 of the text, The Criminal Investigator-Intelligence Analyst’s Handbook of Islam, for World View discussions that would run afoul of Islamophobia legislation. In Other News “IRS Allows Islamic Terrorists to Fundraise Through Leftist Nonprofit” by Daniel Greenfield, Jihad Watch, March 6, 2023 The IRS stands accused of allowing Non-Profit 501(c)(3) status for groups with questionable ties to leftist and even terror-linked organizations.

Khamenei: Focus of Muslim world should be on strengthening Palestinians as Israel is fast approaching its end APR 24, 2023 5:00 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER 1 COMMENT The “Palestinians” and their allies routinely invoke Islam to explain their actions. Western analysts of their conflict with Israel routinely and unanimously ignore that aspect of the conflict. Find out why that is so foolish and dangerous in The Palestinian Delusion. “Iran vows to continue spiritual, political support for Palestine,” Press TV, April 22, 2023: Iran says it will continue to provide more spiritual and political support to the Palestinian nation and resistance movement in their path to liberate the occupied lands and establish an independent government with al-Quds as its capital. Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian made the remarks in a Saturday phone call with Secretary General of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad resistance movement Ziyad al-Nakhalah, congratulating him on the auspicious occasion of Eid al-Fitr, the end of the holy month of Ramadan. Referring to the Eid al-Fitr speech by Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei about the important issue of Palestine, the top Iranian diplomat highlighted the significance of the decline of the Zionists’ occupiers, the ongoing developments in Palestine and unity among its people as well as global solidarity with the Palestinians. Earlier in the day, Ayatollah Khamenei said the focus of the Muslim world should be on strengthening Palestinian combatants at a time when Israel is fast approaching its end….
