The Nation has adopted the methods that the Nazis employed in dehumanizing the Jews in the run-up to World War II. Like the German socialists, the American left vilifies, mocks, and libels those who stand in the way of their oppressive and anti-freedom agenda.
Here again we see the vicious hatred of the left — the hatred of the good for being good. They will stop at nothing to destroy, defame and ridicule those who stand for human rights. The author of this hit piece on Ann Coulter, Kellyanne Conway and me is enraged that we have stood up for the rights of Muslim women.
The author is a Muslim who, ten years later, is still losing sleep over speaking to a group at the Indiana General Assembly that included Republicans — people who were concerned about women under the sharia, threatened by honor killings, female genital mutilation, etc.
Rafia Zakaria is embarrassed by the resolution they helped her pass, because the motives were wrong — as if she knows what was in their hearts and souls.
For Rafia Zakaria, their concern — and mine — for Muslim women is illegitimate. Zakaria hates me because I dare to point out that the mistreatment of Muslim women is rooted in Islam. For Zakaria, The Nation, and the left in general, Islam trumps everything, even concern for women who are victimized.
The laughably vicious cartoon accompanying the article shows who The Nation’s real enemies are — not those who brutalize Muslim women, but we who call attention to this brutal treatment.
“Why Donald Trump Needs Muslim Women,” by Rafia Zakaria, The Nation, August 11, 2017:
On an April morning 10 years ago, I set out to speak at the Indiana General Assembly. I was a graduate student then, green and greedy for any sort of opportunity that would lift me above all of the other sharp and competitive students in the political-science department at Indiana University. The invitation fit that bill grandly, even though I’d been given only some vague guidelines regarding the topic of my speech. I learned soon enough when I was greeted warmly by the very nice state representative who had asked me to come. “Just speak for a few minutes about your work on honor killings,” she whispered with a smile. The venue was not the Assembly itself, but a luncheon for the Women’s Caucus of the Indiana House of Representatives.
I did speak about honor killings that afternoon, after I received a tour of the Statehouse, stood beneath the hushed and high rotunda, and had my picture taken with my host, the two of us standing by the flag behind the podium. I spoke about the work my small organization of expat Pakistani-American women was doing on the issue, of the cruelty of the crime and the helplessness of the victims. It was the first time I had spoken on the issue for a mainly white and exclusively American audience—and a largely conservative one. There was raucous applause when I was done. A resolution officially commending my work on honor killings in South Asia was passed. I received it in the mail and had it framed.
Ten years later, I can barely look at it. A miserable mix of remorse, guilt, and shame follows when I force myself to do so or to recount the moment it commemorates. I realize now that the resolution had very little to do with me. Instead, my presence as a Pakistani woman served to confirm a group of other women—predominantly white women—in their role as saviors of brown women and, by extension, harsh critics of that supposedly woman-hating religion, Islam….
…Similarly, a cabal of conservative white women—rage-filled Trumpistas—have forged a sort of right-wing feminism that claims to protect American women by preventing immigration. In order for this Fox News feminism to function, it needs stories of bad Muslim men. Among its leading lights is Pamela Geller, whose personal website the Geller Report issues an almost daily mega-dose of anti-Muslim vitriol, including frequent stories about honor killings and female genital mutilation. “The Phenomenon of Honor Killings Rooted in the Culture of Islam,” screams one post, its contents a mash-up of selective statistics, fake reports, and ludicrous claims. Nationalist media maven Ann Coulter is Geller’s sister in hate, eagerly constructing an image of the empowered but conservative American woman as one archly opposed to the admission of brown men into the polity. In one appearance on Fox News following the signing of Trump’s second travel ban, Coulter declared that immigrants from the Middle East were “terrifying” and “having a very difficult time not to rape women.”…
The story, however, is not simply a tale of enterprising native informers posing as reformers and cashing in on American feminist confusions and the seductions of a fake solidarity built on saviordom. What led The New York Times (which has otherwise positioned itself as a journalistic vanguard against the Trump administration) to give a platform to women whose views line up with Geller’s and Coulter’s is reflective of a wider liberal-feminist ambivalence about identity politics in general, and of its own proclivities for savior feminism in particular….

Absolute inversionism!
My sentiments, exactly.
What a load of claptrap.
Day in and day out, hour after hour, year after year Pamela is bombarded with obscene sadistic death threats and Islamic hate and yet she keeps slogging on knowing she is a FRONT-LINE SOLDIER in a very real and deadly war for all that is decent and true.
Sometimes that needs to be said quite loudly. Boldness comes at a price, and if you gauge your self by the determination of your enemies, she’s above us all. Keep her in your prayers!
Some muslim women are willing to stand up and fight, too many are beaten into submission through the repeated brain washing of islam, along with senseless violence and cultural pressure that should be considered criminal blackmail.

Cross your legs, you are setting a bad example.
I’m of the opinion that these ads are honey pots designed to harvest the IP addresses of people who frequent gellerreport.com. The kind of information muslums and their collaborators are always interested in knowing.
There has got to be some sort of a “come on sucker” angle to them, which I am not overly interested in figuring out, ignoring them doesn’t help make them go away, might as well use them as reply practice funnies.
I should say that the web sites are honeypots, not the disqus posts. If you have a web server hosting a website properly configured you can find out the IP address of anyone who visits it.
Hey Rafia…
President Trump needs zero Muslim women, and We The People need likewise ZERO MUSLIMS in our free and beloved country.
If you love zero freedom and want your stinkin Sharia law, please GET THE HELL OUT OF AMERICA, AND GO TO THE ISLAMIC COUNTRY OF YOUR CHOICE!!!
In the entire article by Rafia, never did she mention the ‘Jihad’, the issues of the homicidism across Islamic societies, and the hate that has caused the acid attacks, by muslims upon muslim women. And she has the gall to talk about a culture war here in the US?
You were expecting facts and statistics instead of some thing geared toward an emotional response?
Clearly a confused thinker. But what educated woman wouldn’t be confused by identifying as a Muslim and having to defend an ideology which produces and condones so much brutality towards women around the world? She is exhibit A for why the “feminists”say nothing and look the other way about FGM and honor killing. They know better than to get involved and get kicked in the face for it.
If Zakaria actually cares about helping Muslim women she should swallow her pride and take the help where she can get it. Conservative white women. LOL.
It’s always catastrophic when pride and dignity are confused. Pride is painted over rust. Dignity goes to the heart of the matter. These concepts are foreign to muslin women, for how ever can dignity be seen and copied in a place where it can’t exist?
Good is evil. Truth is lies. Hate is love. I’m learning my left catechism.
Righteous indignation is blind hate, stewardship is destruction of the planet. Ah, hell, we could go on and on. If you’re not on Satan’s enemies list, you’re not doing anything significant. Everybody keep it up.
You are absolutely right! Let me tell you a little (sad but funny or the other way around) anecdote:
An inmate of a psychiatric institution where a friend of mine used to work said that God is a military dictator, that the angels in heaven all wear (nazi) uniforms, that there are all kinds of torture instruments in heaven and that the angels torture everyone there.
Then she asked him, “and what happens if you go to hell?”
The poor patient said “the devils will torture you there too, the voices said so…”
My point? the “politically corect” morons should have their heads examined!
The woman needs professional help, or perhaps she is just another , brain dead trouble maker like Sarsour.
Professional help, as in a good warden over the FEMA camp she gets put into right? LOL
Among its leading lights is Pamela Geller … The Phenomenon of Honor Killings Rooted in the Culture of Islam,” screams one post, its contents a mash-up of selective statistics, fake reports, and ludicrous claims.
Nowhere in the article (Ref. 1) does Zakaria bother to cite how this Geller woman’s site’s post contains ludicrous claims- it’s all empty editorializing and mindless vituperation, worthy of some of the more prolific commenters on this site (I’ve noted how some of them would make very good Moslems- just sayin’). The entire article is infused with empty, unsubstantiated claims that serve only to vilify, but not inform. Indeed, it is a veritable mishmash of inane vitriol that fails to truly inform Nation’s readers.
So honored as Pamela might be from Zakaria’s load of journalistic claptrap, she actually has reason to feel slighted. Zakaria noted that Ayana Hirsi Ali “has been labeled an anti-Muslim extremist by the Southern Poverty Law Center”. Now I believe Pamela has been similarly honored, but Zakaria, in her zeal to defame Pamela, fails to mention that stellar credential in her bio.
Ref. 1: https://www.thenation.com/article/why-donald-trump-needs-muslim-women/
Wait, you were thinking that the article was fact based? You think that just because someone was published that they had done due diligence? What the hell were you thinking?
What the hell were you thinking?
I based my opinion on the article that Zakaria wrote- not what Pamela, or anyone else, had to say about it. You got something better on which to base you feelings?- I won’t call them opinions.
What the hell were you thinking- oh, don’t bother answering, you clearly have nothing insightful to say.
I understood your opinion was based on that Zakaria article.
Well that’s a start, Bradley.
You might also consider a dollop of civility when you challenge a comment in a provocative manner- but perhaps that is too much to expect of many of Pamela’s readers.
Yah, you might be quite right about all of that.
Thanks, Bradley. I do note we arrived at a meeting of minds without the use of the words “idiot” or “moron”. :~)
The SPLC has designated Daniel Greenfield a one-man hate group.
The Muzzie Gene is being transferred into cockroaches to create “Stupid Bugs” that lay still on the floor 5 times a day & are genetically modified to surrender to a can of Raid!!
Ants convert to Islam and Die
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=askPkbm6Z-k
What an incredibly apt metaphor! I wonder what a Muslim thinks when he sees it? he must be outraged! (Because it seems to me that is the only emotional reaction they have).
The whole racial divide was media created sensationalism. Do you think of people in other races differently now than you did 2 years ago? 5 years? 10? 20? Some weak minded people have allowed themselves to be taken in with propaganda. It happens, fight back!
That you, reverend Al ? Yeah, its all about white supremacism.
Pamela Geller is doing an amazing job reporting & it’s easy to adapt to it with whatever the background.
But I think the public relation should have a more open, transparent political agenda/concept & interface to make it even easier for all people to adapt.
~This aint a white thing, it’s a human rights thing.~
& Trump as leader of this politics is a misleading choice.
I’d like to be in charge of the conceptualization & leadership.

Not unusual. The other is very atuned to all things race. One can only imagine what awaits our progeny when WE become the minority. If you think empathy and altruism is deeply ingrained in them, I have some prime shares of real estate in the Everglades for you.
She’s just a poor victim of racism. Poor little brown girl. LOL The glades are cool.
Another “for prophet” liar.
Indeed, similar to Nazi propaganda.
The Nation was an apologist for Stalin in the 1930s when he was murdering millions. Also apologists for the Khmer Rouge when they murdered millions in Cambodia after 1975, Now they are apologists for the Islamic Extremists who are just as viscous.
The nation is the Bible of the anti American Left. Pamela should be pleased by their hate. It shows that she is doing good work
Thanks for that info.
Nothing wrong with honor killings. It helps control the growing muslim populations. think about it!
Every one of these women is free to visit Saudi Arabia, Iran or Jordan any day they wish. It is curious how they do it from afar and are experts.
HATE the messenger of TRUTH.
They don’t dare address the MESSAGE.
We love you Ms. Geller.
Such is the failure of logic, common sense, and patriotic and family values.
Islam must go. Islam is on the eternal waste list. Islam must be eternally destroyed for earth to survive. Russia is not the problem. Climate change is not the problem. Every muslim, from birth to elder must be eternally destroyed, that every man, WOMAN, and child.
For those of you who dabble in complacency, may you suffer at the hands of islam in any and every manner.
Islamic women are just as deviant and filthy as the muslim man…
” A miserable mix ” Of islamitic/progressive self examination , known to cause rivers of bile to erupt from every orifice .
Validate your 2nd Amendment Rights… Carry
So white people especially white women should not try to help brown women (rather ‘racist’ to start with) as that is ‘islamophobic’ and also ‘racist’. White people in general should not talk about Islam except in the most positive terms, as Islam is the perfect ‘system’ of living , and non Muslims should just prepare themselves for the glorious day of complete Islamic domination as ‘allah’ that figment of imagination has ‘decreed’
Telling the truth about liars is a crime to the misled leftists. They have stood the values of righteousness on its head, proclaiming that death is good and that good is evil. Life should be snuffed out before it can become good, and if life gets its chance to exist, then it must either become evil to warrant protection of the courts and society, or be snuffed out as being of no value.
No, you are mistaken. This has nothing to do with the Anti-abortion/Pro-choice debate. That is a separate issue that has raged since Roe vs Wade in the early ’70s, long before there were hardly any Muslims in the West. Here the discussion is about Islam and the evil it brings. You have missed the point.
Truth telling has absolutely nothing to do with abortion, so sidelining my post like that is an error on your part. Muslims preach death and killing all the time as if it were a great thing – it is not. Abortion is a separate issue I did not cover at all. Putting words into my post on your part is viewed by me as a failure on your part to clearly understand what I said.
I did not sideline your comment. It is still there above mine, and I have no power over it. The article is about oppression of women under Islam, and how Pamela Geller and two others who speak out about it have been ridiculed for that. Very hard to understand what your comment could possible mean in relation to that, where you accuse “mislead leftists” of “snuffing out life”, but the problem is actually Islam and the blindness of the left to its evils.
I did not say “mislead” but the past tense of the word. Islam consistently snuffs out life of old young and infirm. It is their whole existence, is it not?
Wow! You can lead a Muslim to freedom but you can’t make them embrace it—they’ll just kick you in the teeth for your humanitarian effort. I now understand Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s video on feminism–when she says Western feminists say that it is insulting to Muslim women if Western women try to ‘save’ non-Western women from their Muslim misogynist oppression. I could care less what happens to Muslim women who are into masochism from their Islamic male sadists “over there”….but when they want to bring that Islamic crap here…you bet I’ll be a “right wing nationalist feminist” upholding basic human rights for women. Rafia Zakira is free to leave the U.S. and live in her Pakistani hell-hole. Let’s ban all Muslims….they don’t want or appreciate freedom…it’s alien to their culture.
https://youtu.be/wJkFQohIKNI
Such a clear and straightforward message. Such common sense. Yet for the Left, it is a heresy for which Ayaan Hirsi Ali should be burned at the stake. They would kill the messenger.
What’s wrong with this world? It’s gone mad! How can so many people be so deluded? I understand that young people these days are brainwashed in schools, and that we don’t get an accurate reflection of the world from the MSM. But it seems all our YouTube heros are young people – Paul Joseph Watson, Lauren Southern, Faith Goldy, and so many others even younger are leading a new awakening. What has happened to older folks who are not influenced by the educational system they left behind decades ago? These people usually figure out what is really going on one way or another – on other issues. But on this ideological take over by the Left, they seem to be completely clueless. And they are the ones who hold the reins of power. I believe they must have allowed themselves to be deluded by the MSM from where they get all their news. But who runs the MSM? It is they – these same older folks who are deluded. They have deluded themselves!
THE left always, always labels and calls you WHAT THEY ARE!!
You must always, always remember this principle of the left. As someone said about evil they turn the world upside down. Down is up and up is down, right wrong and wrong right.
The left’s father is the DEVIL who is the ADVERSARY (opposite) of what Yahuah stands for.
That is a terrible cartoon. Vile, mean cartoon. It does not make sense. Luckily the West tolerates political satire. Who would not embrace any group willing to help another group, to bring to the light any atrocities or injustices, to let the world know, to plead for help? To save a nation, to save a gender, to save a people.
When one looks at a thing and it is good, it is also good to say so. And if we look at a situation, and it is problematic, best that the problems are brought forward, so people are aware, and can work towards a solution.
It takes the Muslim women out of Muslim countries to tell what is happening . Those who try in Muslim nations are delt with quickly
I’m am glad some one is speaking up for them.
Dam. That drawing screams “Its The Juice!!!!”
LOL. I think that’s supposed to be Ann Coulter on the left.
The tactic employed by the leftist scum is as old as Nazi Germany: if you can’t refute the argument attack the messenger.
Here is a good one
Very well stated, especially the parts about educating children in school all about the mutgonad, police beat on him, of the qur’an. Who was a pedophile, necrophiliac, thief, murderer, rapist, performing every criminal act possible.
I hope nothing violent happens to her by the cast of the usual suspects.
Always remember that anytime you are listening to a Muslim spokesman you are are listening to a professional griffter. Once you understand this it actually can be kind of fun listening to them while playing a little game to spot the con.
Pamela Geller, unlike the psychotic leftist feminists, gives a damn about the Western Feminists Muslim sisterhood. It is a certainty those of the Feminist scourge, unlike Geller, are so riddled, awash in malice, contempt, prejudice and are utterly self-serving to their sole cause, themselves. Frankly, they are, also, prefer to be oblivious of their ignorance, the truth about the Muslim women who are subjugated by this cult of debauchery, terror and anti-Womanhood. Ironically, our self-anointed Western-Feminists are the true misogynists, not Pamela Geller.
Rafia Zakaria writes like she is promoting herself in some sleazy dating meat market, advertiseing herself as a “virgin, that knows 27 positions”. Like islam, the episiotomy of misogyny, saying mutgonad, police beat upon him, was a feminist. There is only so much taqiyya that can be slung.
To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.
