The face of the new Nazi party. And Ilhan Omar. This is Barack Obama’s actual legacy.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib Wrote Column For Nation Of Islam Publication
Peter Hasson, The Daily Caller, February 11, 2019
- Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib wrote a column for Nation of Islam publication Final Call in 2006.
- Final Call was founded by Louis Farrakhan and is “the official communications organ of the Nation of Islam.”
- Farrakhan is a notorious anti-Semite who has described Jews as “satanic” and praised Hitler as a “very great man.”
- Tlaib has already faced scrutiny over other ties to anti-Semitism.
Story continues below advertisementDemocratic Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib in 2006 wrote an op-ed column for Final Call, a Nation of Islam publication founded by Louis Farrakhan, in the latest tie to emerge between the congresswoman and anti-Semitic figures.
Tlaib authored the column in 2006, while working as the advocacy coordinator for the Arab Community Center for Economic and Social Services (ACCESS), two years before she first won election to the state legislature. Tlaib was described as a “guest columnist” in the article, which argued against deporting immigrants found guilty of “minor offenses.”
Final Call describes itself as “the official communications organ of the Nation of Islam” and was founded by the group’s leader, Farrakhan, according to Final Call’s website.
Farrakhan’s history of unapologetic anti-Semitism including describing Jews as “satanic” and praising Hitler as a “very great man,” was well established by 2006.
Final Call has published a steady stream of articles defending Farrakhan from charges of anti-Semitism.
An October 2018 Final Call article quoted Farrakhan’s social media director, Jesse Muhammad, saying the backlash was proof that Farrakhan “must have sprayed some form of termite repellant that stirred up those that have practiced and continue to practice Talmudic ways by eating at the foundation and the carcass of a dead people chosen by God.”
Tlaib’s office did not immediately return a request for comment. The Washington Free Beacon first reported on her Final Call op-ed on Monday, as The Daily Caller News Foundation was preparing this story for publication.
Tlaib has already come under fire for her ties to other anti-Israel radicals, as well as her support for the anti-Israel Boycott Divest Sanction (BDS) movement, which has often overlapped with anti-Semitic causes.
A key fundraiser for Tlaib’s 2018 congressional campaign, Abdel-qader Maher, repeatedly promoted anti-Semitic conspiracy theories on Facebook, both on his own page and within a Facebook group that includes Tlaib.
Abdel-qader took credit on Facebook for organizing fundraisers for Tlaib among Arab-Americans, pulling in hundreds of thousands of dollars for her campaign. Photos he’s posted on social media show him speaking at Tlaib campaign events.
Tlaib also came under fire after posing for a picture with Palestinian activist Abbas Hamideh, a supporter of Hezbollah who believes Israel shouldn’t exist, at her swearing-in ceremony.
Tlaib claimed she didn’t know him, though she had previously posted a picture with him on Facebook.
Women’s March co-chair Linda Sarsour was an early supporter of Tlaib, who has continued to support Sarsour’s organization, despite its own anti-Semitism issues. Sarsour and another co-chair, Tamika Mallory, have faced scrutiny over their support of Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam.
Sarsour was unapologetic about the Farrakhan controversy less than two weeks ago, in a taped podcast with left-wing media outlet Democracy Now.
Sarsour lashed out at critics of her support for Farrakhan, and called for “accountability” within “our communities” because “we made Tamika Mallory and Linda Sarsour and Minister Farrakhan literally the whole story instead of focusing on the real threats to our communities, which is white nationalism.”
Sarsour then suggested that Jewish people had mishandled the controversy, and urged them to have “hard conversations” in order to avoid “imposing [their] trauma” on others:
So, what I’m, we have been asked and demanded of many things. And we have came out and said we understand and we hear the pain. And I understand. I’ve been working with Jews for over 20 years. I understand historical trauma. And a lot of this comes from historical, the reasons why people backlash is because they respond from a place of trauma. Black people have historical trauma. Lots of people have historical trauma. But we have to sometimes go back to our communities and say, “Let’s heal. Let’s find ways to deal with this trauma so that we’re not imposing our trauma on others who are also traumatized, and focusing on the people that are causing the trauma to our communities.”

How could people have voted for Muslims?
Defiance? Making a statement they’re not a “racist” and the other slurs?
You can only hope people are paying attention….we also have to educate people.

We must dominate in ethics & free the African slaves enslaved today in Muhammadist tyrannies & abolish the Muhammadist tyrannies.
Today Africans are enslaved, castrated, divorced, beaten & killed in Saudi Arabia & enslaved in the UAE, Oman, Yemen, Kuwait, Lebanon, Bahrain, Iraq, North-Sudan, Libya (surge), Algeria (surge), Mauritania (20 percent), Niger, Mali, Somalia, Nigeria in emulation of unjust Muhammad who started the global African slave-trade by saying his unproven deity had turned Africans black so Africans’ descendants would be slaves to Arabs & Turks (see Wikiislam).

The Jewish people have been the target of hate for over 5000
years. They have been continuously accused of being people to hate, partly as a
result of the fact that they were a minority group and could be easily accused
and challenged without repercussion from that small group. Though their belief
system was essentially non-violent as expressed in the Ten Commandments that
they promulgated thru their God, they have been wrongfully accused of causing every
malignant problem others were facing. The belief system that is Islam actually
promotes that violence and hate towards them, though none of the accusations
made against these people has any substance. Those of the Jewish persuasion
have lived in America for centuries now, which though anti-Semitism existed;
nevertheless it was not as palpable as it has become with the advent into
America of those of the Islamic belief system. It now has become dangerous for
them. We can see that in places where they live, as random violence is now
being directed at them, again without legitimate cause. It is extremely sad
what is happening to those of Jewish persuasion here in America: where our
people were all created equally, endowed by their creator with certain
unalienable rights, and among them the right to life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness; rights that are now being denied to a people who have been
nothing but productive, industrious and 100% American in their conduct since
they arrived in this country. If this anti-Semitic conduct is allowed to
continue, genocide is likely in their future. We must press those right
thinking leaders to actively “contest” those who patently state their hate and
who are obviously instigated by their satanic belief system. I truly hope that
the new AG will confront the lunatics that are pushing this dangerous conduct,
and that impeachment be considered against those who are essentially promoting
genocide of a good people, which should be sufficient to not only remove them
from office, but give them some jail time. I am afraid that if those things do
not happen, the violence will continue and things here will get worse.

You would expect that those holding public office would temper their remarks but this is beyond the pale. Even though the late Robert Byrd of WV was a Grand Wizard in the KKK, he was able to STFU about it.
Like Adolph Hitler, these modern-day anti-semitic ragheads like Omar and Tlaib wear it on their sleeves.

The Democrats are like the UK Labor party, the party of Islam. The Muslims are breeding exponentially and the Dems want the voting bloc. In the UK, Finland and the Netherlands, numerous Muslim pedophile gangs operate.

The Nation of Islam is little better than a hate group. I don’t think even most Muslims take them seriously.
