Pamela Geller: Olympic Fencer Competing In Hijab Is 'Islamic Supremacism'
Submitted by Miranda Blue on Thursday, 2/4/2016 11:16 am
On Saturday, fencer Ibtihaj Muhammad qualified for the U.S. Olympic team, making news for becoming the first U.S. athlete who will compete in the Olympics wearing a hijab. As far as we know, Muhammads choice to wear a head covering during the competition isnt going to affect anybody else on the U.S. Olympic team, but anti-Muslim activist Pamela Geller is up in arms, saying in an interview with Breitbart News Daily this morning that the one athlete wearing a hijab amounts to Islamic supremacism and imposing Islam on the secular marketplace. The Olympic team now, theyre wearing hijabs, arent they? the programs host, Stephen K. Bannon, asked Geller. Geller confirmed that theyve designed special outfits for them." Its more of imposing Islam on the secular marketplace, she added, whether its in the workplace, whether its in the school. Its Islamic supremacism is what it is. You have even in Canada, the Mounties, theyre designing a police officers uniform with a hijab. This is Islamic supremacism. You know, Jewish law pertains only to Jews, canon law pertains only to Christians, but Sharia, Islamic law, asserts its authority over non-Muslims. This is the problem and this is something that is never discussed.

Bryan Fischer Says All Islamic Charities Are Merely Fronts For Funding Terrorism
Submitted by Kyle Mantyla on Thursday, 2/4/2016 10:44 am
On his program yesterday, notorious anti-Muslim radio host Bryan Fischer criticized President Obama for speaking at a mosque, asserting that there is no such thing as an Islamic charity because all such organizations are nothing more than fronts for funding terrorism. "There's no such thing as an Islamic charity," he said. "That's just a ruse. That is a terrorist fundraising organization. You see any Islamic organization with the word 'relief' or 'foundation' or 'charity' in it, you are looking at an organization that raises money for terror." When Christians start a charity, Fischer asserted, the motivation is to "provide charitable relief to needy people" but when Muslims start a charity, the true "purpose is to finance jihad."

Personally I wouldn't mind banning religious symbols, cultural practices or usages so long as the ban is equally applied across the spectrum of ALL religions. In fact, I would prefer not seeing religious symbols at all - but then that would eliminate most art, a lot of architecture and be offensive to those who believe.

Submitted by Brian Tashman on Thursday, 2/4/2016 12:45 pm
Trunews host Rick Wiles was outraged by President Obamas appearance at a Baltimore mosque yesterday, calling the president a supporter of Islamic terrorism and asking listeners, Why are we tolerating this criminal thug? Insisting that the president is not only a Muslim but the jihadist-in-chief who is waging jihad from inside the White House, Wiles said that he prays Obama will be arrested, tried in court, found guilty and sentenced to prison for his bloody crimes against humanity. However, Wiles isnt looking forward to Hillary Clinton succeeding Obama as president, calling her a puppet of the Muslim Brotherhood.
