If Trump Proposal Had Been In Place, OSU Jihad Attack Wouldn’t Have Happened

[the_ad id=”83350″]

Muslim “refugee” and Ohio State University student Abdul Razak Ali Artan last week set off a fire alarm on campus, then drove his car into the crowd of students evacuating the building. Then he jumped out of his car and began stabbing people with a butcher knife. This latest jihad attack on American soil vindicates President-elect Trump on Muslim immigration.

After the attack, Trump tweeted: “ISIS is taking credit for the terrible stabbing attack at Ohio State University by a Somali refugee who should not have been in our country.” Indeed, not only should Artan not have been in the country, but if the proposals that Trump has advanced regarding Muslim immigration had been in place, he would not have been, and the attack at Ohio State University would never have happened.

Trump has called for a temporary moratorium on immigration from countries that are hotbeds of jihad terror activity. KARE11.com reported that “Artan was a Somali refugee and Ohio State student who left his homeland with his family in 2007. They lived in Pakistan before coming to the U.S., where Artan became a permanent resident in 2014.”

Somalia and Pakistan: two epicenters of the global jihad. If Trump had been President and his ban had been in place, Abdul Razak Ali Artan would never have entered the United States at all.

This sensible approach to Muslim immigration is long overdue. Back in 2008, I wrote this in my book Stealth Jihad, among my proposals for how the jihad, both violent and stealthy, could be stymied in the United States:

End Muslim immigration to the United States. This is a simple matter of national security. Immigration policy must work toward the integration of all immigrants, and the all-encompassing societal program of sharia makes the integration of pious Muslims ultimately impossible. While there are undoubtedly millions of Muslims who have no interest in jihad either by violence or stealth, no Islamic authorities anywhere in the world have declared heretical or in any way unacceptable the idea that non-Muslims must be fought against by various means and subjugated under the rule of Islamic law. Unless and until that begins to happen, no one can be sure of the sentiments of any individual believer. Consequently, simply to protect ourselves, there should be an end to Muslim immigration, combined with a clear notice to Muslims in the United States that any action on behalf of sharia supremacism is unacceptable.

But ending Muslim immigration to America must be considered a long-term goal, since such a measure is impossible in today’s political climate. The proposal would inevitably be denounced as “racist,” despite the fact that jihadist supremacism is not a race. But at the very least, immigration officials should immediately adopt a program to screen Muslims entering the United States for jihadist sentiments. This will provide grounds for deportation if an entrant renounces some aspect of sharia supremacism on his immigration application and then works for it once in the country.

At the time, this proposal was greeted with derision, or worse. Even in FrontPage Magazine, which is singular in recognizing the nature and magnitude of the jihad threat, then-managing editor Ben Johnson wrote: “Analyzing the problem is one thing; solving it is another. Spencer’s prescriptions on what to do will rankle some and lead to his further character assassination. He is at his best when calling for the government to impose existing laws – and most gets to the point when he calls for a revival of patriotism, the self-assurance necessary to deny Islamic encroachment, white liberal guilt, and multiculturalist recriminations of the greatest nation in the history of the world. He is at his most questionable in calling on the government to ‘End Muslim immigration into the United States.’”

Trump has changed all that, to the extent that now, even the tired, pusillanimous, cowardly “conservative” establishment, late to the party as always, as always leading from behind, is catching up. Back in January 2016, National Review denounced Trump for, among other things, his suggestion that there should be a temporary moratorium on Muslim immigration: “Not since George Wallace has there been a presidential candidate who made racial and religious scapegoating so central to his campaign. Trump launched his campaign talking about Mexican rapists and has gone on to rant about mass deportation, bans on Muslim immigration, shutting down mosques, and building a wall around America. America is an exceptional nation in large part because we’ve aspired to rise above such prejudices and guarantee life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness to everyone.”

But after the OSU jihad attack, National Review published an article entitled “It’s Time for Honest Talk about Muslim Immigrationm,” saying: “Some immigrants from jihad zones will be involved in murdering Americans. Is this an acceptable price for compassion?”

That was always the concern. The time for National Review’s previous tardy and pallid me-tooism is long past. Abdul Razak Ali Artan proved that. How many more of them must there be before sane immigration policies are implemented?

If the do gooders and other concerned person want to help the alleged refugees, who are muslims fleeing muslim criminally insane violence, all aid thou be confined to the country involved, There is no value in destroying western society with infected inferior social and physical stock which is destroyed only after the damage is done. Export charity, do not import terrorism.

I don’t think that patriotism in any way is the necessity & prescription to defeat the injustice that is the Muhammadism-conspiracy.
What is needed is an ethical sense for justice, an authentic sense for human rights.

Recognizing the humanitarian disaster caused by the Muhammadism-conspiracy since sadist, racist slaver tyrant, inventor of slavery of Africans, mass-murderer, crucifier, genital mutilationist, clitodirectomist, child-rapist & pederast, theist psychopath who burned people alive for not praying & others to extort them, Muhammad is what is needed to ignite the passion for an ethical imperialism of human rights & condemnation of the Muhammadism-conspiracy.

A ban on Muhammadism-conspiracy imperialism invasion is a natural, mandatory consequence out of that recognition.

Ban Islam, the Muhammadism-conspiracy & save lives & profound human rights worldwide.

Did you know: There’s slavery today of Africans in Saudi Arabia, Mauritania(25%,50%?of population), new north Sudan, Kuwait, Bahrain, Yemen, Oman, Algeria, Lebanon, Qatar (?), Pakistan, UAE, Niger, Libya, Nigeria, Chad, Mali, Somalia & elsewhere inspired by sadist, racist slaver tyrant, inventor of slavery of Africans, mass-murderer, crucifier, genital mutilationist, clitodirectomist, child-rapist & pederast, theist psychopath who burned people alive for not praying & others to extort them, Muhammad who owned Africans as slaves & said that his deity turned Africans black, so their descendants would be slaves to Arabs & Turks (Abeed means African & slave in Arabic,) (Read more about sadist, racist slaver Muhammad at WikiIslam). & IslamicState stated they want to revive enslavement of Africans in America as I’ve read here.
Anti-African racists & Muhammadism Out of Africa!
Ban the Muhammadism-conspiracy & democracy, save profound human rights!
Help me to win the next election with my worldwide low-budget-campaign, for human rights & ecology, globally.

I like suggestions by some to help refugees in their own countries. There’s many issues besides the tendencies to violence that many of the refugees bring to other countries such as problems with assimilation including working without causing problems and getting along with people from other cultures, obeying the laws of other countries, health issues like tuberculosis, measles, hiv and others. Here’s a link on just some of the problems –

Trump and Pamela are both on solid ground with the proposed ban on muzzie immigration from terror hellholes. Search “Section 1182” or “inadmissible aliens” and it will lead you to 8 US Code Section 1182 entitled “Inadmissible Aliens”. Drop down to the subsection entitled “Security and Related Grounds” and look at the third item there entitled “Terror”. There, almost verbatim, is an outline of limiting immigration from areas of the globe where terror is rampant.

Also, Artan was NOT 18 years old. How could he be 18 and already have completed the two year course of study for his supposed Associates Degree. Better question, how many 18-year-olds do you know who are already going bald?

Whenever I hear politicians and the media invoking ‘compassion’ as a reason to pursue a policy as sinister and stupid as importing 100,000 Somalis into the poor old u.s.of.a., I put on safety goggles to protect my eyes from the pixie dust. Charity begins at home, not in Somalia. Besides, if they really meant it, they would be offering green cards to persecuted christians in the middle east and south asia (here’s looking at you, Pakistan!). Heck they might even devise a quota for white christians from South Africa — if that compassion was a real thing.

Taking responsibility for the muslim refugees, especially by US , is the stupidest idea I’ve ever heard… Why not the wealthy countries like UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Oman to take responsibility then ? Their land ESPECIALLY the SAUDI are SO BIG with so LOW DENSITY POPULATION and speaking of MONEY , almost every day their people buy some new FERRARI for their collection, or how about the new economically emerging muslim countries in Central Asia such as Kazakshtan , Tajikistan etc then ?

To make comparison with taking The Jewish refugee in Nazi era is another idiotic argument, the Jews had no place to go in Europe that time in the 40’s , all Europe fell under Nazism and Communism which is an entirely different situation with muslim refugees where they would find absolutely no conflict zone with top world’s luxurious places in Arabian Peninsula and above of all they share the same value and language.

When would Western governments ever came to their senses that they have been being played at by the Muslims ?

The strongest argument for resettlement of Muslim refugees into Arab lands is that the cultural norms of the refugees comport with the cultural norms of Muslim governments. Supremacist religious sharia law is diametrically opposed to the egalitarian secular laws of the West. Importing a population with cultural norms hostile to your own is cultural suicide. So why are left-wing liberal leaders encouraging cultural suicide? Because the social chaos that the conflict between Muslim immigrants and their host countries creates is necessary for left-wing liberal leaders to impose their globalist dream of one-world government. It is extremely sinister for Western leaders to appeal to public humanitarian compassion when what they want is to dupe the public into surrendering their sovereignty and accepting one-world government.

Correct ! and let me add in another two crucial factors, Arabian Petro-dollar Investment and Oil ! these are two components which make the west so ‘POWERLESS&IMPOTENT’ when dealing with muslims.

How utterly strong they despise and hate us, only the stupid leftists that are daily brainwashed by the enemedia

and the educational system cannot understand this common sense, so ban all muzzies from the US shut down all

mosques for ever. Don’t forget when the twin towers collapsed 1 billion of their kind were dancing and chanting in

the streets worldwide. They are our deadliest enemies since the inception. Their only goal is the erasement of the

western and jewish civilizations!

What happened to Refugee Assistance, or Refugee Reception?
That is how to help people until their own land is safe to return to.
The American people were never given the option.
The government, in an act of sinister bullying, has locked together “refugees” with “resettlement”,
as if there were no other way of helping.
Make your representatives aware of your objection.
