A Muslim stabbed ten non-Muslims in a Minnesota mall, and you know what that means as far as the mainstream media is concerned: Muslims are victims. Hamas-linked CAIR has been quick to claim victim status, whining about an anti-Muslim “backlash” that seldom, if ever, materializes after Islamic jihad attacks. And Minnesota’s governor is calling for “religious and racial tolerance,” which is always demanded of the victims and targets of jihad, never of its perpetrators.
And so we come to a particularly egregious example of this victimhood posturing from the Associated Press: “Minnesota Somalis recount racial tensions after mall attack.” We’re told that “the aftermath of Saturday’s attack at Crossroads Center Mall in St. Cloud also is testing longstanding efforts to improve strained relations between thousands of Somalis and other residents in the city. Several Somalis said they saw pickups driving through predominantly Somali neighborhoods the night after the attack, waving confederate flags and honking.”

Really? Did anyone report seeing these strange Confederate pickup trucks besides these “several” unnamed Somalis? Is Minnesota, the home of Keith Ellison and Al Franken, really full of racist, redneck, pickup-driving yahoos? Isn’t it a marvelous coincidence that these perfect central-casting racists just happen to confirm mainstream media myths about how opposition to jihad terror and the Muslim migrant inundation is nothing more or less than racism?
With all due respect to the venerable Associated Press, I don’t believe these Confederate-flag-waving neanderthals exist. After all, there are precedents for Muslims telling tall tales to advance the myth that they are facing widespread hatred and discrimination in the U.S. and the West. Hate crimes are currency in today’s politically correct, victim-oriented environment. The Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), designated a terror organization by the United Arab Emirates, and other Muslims have on many occasions not hesitated to stoop even to fabricating “hate crimes,” including attacks on mosques. A New Jersey Muslim was found guilty of murder that he tried to portray as an “Islamophobic” attack, and in 2014 in California, a Muslim was found guilty of killing his wife, after first blaming her murder on “Islamophobia.”
This kind of thing happens quite frequently. The New York Daily News reported that “a woman who told cops she was called a terrorist and slashed on her cheek in lower Manhattan on Thursday later admitted she made up the story, police said early Friday. The woman, who wore a headscarf, told authorities a blade-wielding wacko sliced open her face as she left a Manhattan cosmetology school, police sources said.”
And recently in Britain, the murder of a popular imam was spread far and wide as another “Islamophobic hate crime” – until his killer also was found to be a Muslim. The Mirror reported that the imam “was targeted because he had made efforts to turn youngsters away from radical Islam.”
According to The Detroit News, a Muslim woman, Saida Chatti, was “charged with making a false police report after she allegedly fabricated a plot to blow up Dearborn Fordson High School to retaliate against the November terrorist attacks in Paris….Police say Chatti called Dearborn investigators Nov. 19, six days after Islamic extremists killed 130 people in Paris.”
And similarly in Britain, a Muslim woman was “fined for lying to police about being attacked for wearing a hijab. The 18-year-old student, known only as Miss Choudhury, said she was violently shoved from behind and punched in the face by a man in Birmingham city centre 10 days after the atrocities in the French capital on November 13.”
And so now Somali Muslims are living in fear of Minnesota Confederates? Pull my other leg. Meanwhile, AP isn’t finished with its tall tales. It says: “It’s still unclear what led 20-year-old Dahir Adan to stab several people with what appeared to be a kitchen knife before he was confronted and killed by an off-duty police officer.” No, it isn’t. According to an initial report, as he stabbed people, Adan was making “references to Allah,” and he asked at least one of his potential victims whether or not he was Muslim — which recalled jihad attacks in Kenya, Somalia, Mali, and Bangladesh where victims were quizzed about religion and Muslims were set free.
In any case, AP wants you to know that Muslims in Minnesota are afraid. It wants you to stop being a racist, bigoted Islamophobe who dares to get angry about jihad stabbings.
Meanwhile, what about the non-Muslims who are living in fear after Adan’s attack, and the New York and New Jersey jihad bombs, and Fort Hood and Boston and Garland and Chattanooga and Paris and Brussels and San Bernardino and Orlando and Nice and all the rest? They aren’t worthy of write-ups from the Associated Press.

When DON’T they play the victim?
muslims are cry bullies in any and every situation, real of imagined. The islamic practice of “taqiyya” which is lying in any and every form, is mandatory to be a muslim. Unless here is genuine validated by a non islamic independent source anything a muslim says is to be considered a lie, as the lame stream media stories whiff are bough and pad for lying propaganda.
Being called an”islamophobe” is now the rite of passage. The brain dead social democrats and other leftist dorks are incapable of thinking, so they call others names. To be labeled an islamophobe is acknowledgement that a person has started to think and act like a human rather than a mindless democrat dhimmi drone.
I am an islamophobic and proud infidel
“Islamophobe” is far superior to being a mindless beast of islam, the democrat party or a socialist.
Me, too. Also, I’m Deplorable to boot!
What these lunatics are really afraid of is that more of us are morphing from
islamophobes to islamofactuals and as far as they are concerned, that just won’t do.
islam would be run out of every place it was openly discussed and debated. islam allows for necrophilia, infanticide, spousal abuse, theft, murder and rape, pedophilia, slavery, bigotry, prejudice against persons based on colour, intolerance, lying and anything else that every other religion expressly forbids.
You are the perfect example of one afflicted with “islamofactualness”.
I applaud your efforts to infect others.
islam’s facts are enough to terrify anyone, over and above the criminally insane violence portrayed by muslims.
A phobia is an un-rational fear of something To be an “islamophobe” means to be ignorant of islam and what it is. Once you understand the basic goals of islam and how these goals are realized…it is no longer “islamophobia”, but a true fear…usually of enslavement or most likely death. I have read the qur’an, in it’s entirety and many ahadith. Once you do this or develop an understanding of islam and what it is…if you are not afraid of this vile cult…you are stupid.
The trendy like “buzz words” until something better comes up, “islamophobia” all have to do. Phobia is defined as an extreme or irrational fear, extreme works.
My uncle Tommy was a tank crew member in North Africa during WWII.
I remember a saying of his when he didn’t believe what someone was saying was true……. “You Lying Arab”.
As a child in the 60’s I didn’t understand it.
I do now!
I met a Jewish Syrian family once — their motto for Arabs was very similar:
“The only Arab you can trust is the one 6′ underground”.
Let’s back the story up just a bit. You don’t suppose ISIS taking immediate credit for the mall attack plays into the situaion, do you?
The only Neanderthals I know of in Minnesota are all Muslims. Islum is very good at blaming the victims as Islum tries to make America the slum that they came from in Africa or the middle east. Obama the Great, needs to make executive decisions that convicts all victims of crimes to life in jail. How dare we try to defend ourselves, so take away our guns NOW? There is no such thing as an Islamophobe. A phobia is an imagined fear of something. I say again and imagined fear of something that does not exist. Islam is a nightmare to all of us and it is NOT imagined. Children may be scared of the dark and that is a phobia. The fear of Islam is a clear and present danger to us all, right here and right now.
“Neanderthals”? I guess they’ve evolved, somewhat. And yes…islam is a clear and present danger to all of us. In fact it should be a National Security issue of the highest order.
Don’t forget about this one, Robert!

It is a typical Arab/Muslim behavior all over the world. They are always the aggressor and play the victim.
INFIDEL AND PROUD MEMBER OF THE DEPLORABLE BASKET
I live 30 miles from the St. Cloud mall. In Minnesota confederate flags are nearly non-existent. Seriously. This is Minnesota, land of liberal loons and utter embarrassment in national elections.
Used to live in Duluth and St. Paul. Is as you described.
“…[W]here all the women are strong, all the men are good-lookin’, and all the kids are above average…”, yahshure youbetcha.
That would be Lake Wobegon which is a few miles away.
Being afraid that you could be killed by a unicorn is a phobia. Being afraid that you could be killed by a muslim is a legitimate fear. They are a real and present danger to all non-muslims.
Dayton is a fool. Hear it again … FOOL. And so are those who voted for him He is no governor, he is a man of straw.
Are there any Muslims out there who could explain why any thinking person in the free, civilised world should NOT mistrust, fear, even detest a brutal, intolerant “religion” whose followers are bringing death and destruction to countries on every continent, day after day, slaughtering hundreds of thousands of innocent people in the name of their “God”?
The AP is getting lazy, You mean the Confederate flag flying pick up trucks didn’t have Giant TRUMP banners on them? They weren’t sporting Gun Racks with “assault weapons?” Oh the “fear” these Somalis have is so sad, the “backlash” makes them so “afraid.” GIVE US ALL A BREAK you Mainstream Media Liars
That is the second stage of jihad, taken right from the Koran…
I believe it’s too late to stop all of this…
Come Lord Jesus, come…
“Several Somalis said they saw pickups driving through predominantly Somali neighborhoods the night after the attack, waving confederate flags and honking.”
Not THAT!! Mein Gott! The humanity!!
ANYTIME a muslim commits a crime…all the rest claim “victim” status. What’s worse…our gov’ts, both local and federal,…play along with it. In a word…NUTS!
Easy way for them to get cash. There is a whole network of folks that assist the “victims” get to the government taxpayer tax trough.
These filthy taqiya-spewing con artists have this routine mastered! Muslims butcher infidels, blow stuff up, rape, terrorize and cause problems everywhere, then, they lecture us on Islamophobia and cry about the coming anti-Muslim backlash that, unfortunately, never happens.
Please, someone, anyone, explain how it is that they are so successful at this. How does this trick work for them and to their advantage every time? How are they so successful at totally turning the Muslim perpetrators into victims???
Ms. Geller; I`m a delivery driver. I noticing when a Muslim is in front of me at a traffic light, they stare at me in their drivers side door mirror. It happened again to-day. I suppose they think they`re intimidating me. It`s ticking me off. Any one else experience this ? Not to sound paranoid, but for the sake of paranoia, am I being targeted ? I`m beginning to get irritated. I know Muslims read your comments section. I am an islamaphobe and believe Mohammad was a child rapist, murderer,liar and thief. islam deserves no respect, neither does it`s sicko prophet mohammad
Google kicked me off again. I`ll try again. When a Muslim is ahead of me at traffic light, I`m starting to notice the driver staring at me in his door mirror. Am I being targeted? Or, is this just a fun game they play to intimidate the infidel? A Muslims did it to-day, a couple weeks ago, a young man. 3rd time, I`m going to start exercising my 2nd amend. right. With my ccw permit of course.
They look for easy marks. When I and some of my friends were in the Army, we would go to Boston and go to Washington Street and Thirteenth Streets down town. Lots of muggers, etc. But we never encountered any because we looked like the killers that we were. Crooks look for the weak and easily intimidated.
Thanks. I guess I knew. I served SP in several countries. Hong Kong was not friendly,
Goebbels never thought of that angle. I’m sure he would be jealous.
I live in the south and I have seen only one “redneck”, “big tired pickup truck” sport-in an American Flag and……. wait for it….. a.. Don’t Tread On Me Flag flag. Well imagine that. Sounds like someone is telling a fib.
I’ve got you all beat … I am a homophobe, a misogynist, an Islamophobic, a racist, and whatever; but I have discovered that in the “basket of deplorables” I have a lot of company. Many of them in that basket play chess.
