Is Trump responsible for increasing Islamaphobia?

She gave a 20 minute speech, the week following the massacre in New Zealand, The main objective of that speech was to tell Muslims to stand up for themselves and not allow acts of terror and discrimination take them down.

Her 9/11 comment was not only taken out of context, but it was also in translation, as in from Yemeni to English, considering the crowd she was addressing. At the same time she was giving the speech, there was a crowd outside the room, shouting anti-Islam slogans.

What happened next, is that an Australian Saudi-financed Imam, who has a boner for CAIR, got the speech, and kicked off a social media campaign, using only a carefully edited version of the speech, and then focusing on a single partial sentence.

The Saudis hate Omar and CAIRE, because they both campaign against the Saudi dictatorship, and how it treats women and anyone who does not follow the Saudi brand of Sunni Islam. You know, the 17 hijackers, who committed 9/11.

A few weeks later, it finally made it to Murdoch, and the next morning it was on the NY Post and Fox. Tump does not know how to read full sentences, so he relied on Fox, had people produce a doctored up hate video, and pushed to the top of his Twitter feed. He finally took it down yesterday, but word is that Twitter was planning oh removing it, because it violates its TOS.

Trump's intent is transparent. He's an Islamophobe. He is working on a secret peace plan, and needs Saudi Arabia, not only to finance it. It includes some economic components, like money to countries like Lebanon, Syria and Egypt, to give citizenship to Palestinians living within their territories, empty out the West Bank, and make the Golan and the West Bank permanent part of Israel.

But, I digress. All of a sudden, as Trump's tweet, and the NY Post cover page went public a few days ago, no one checked what this was about, and it's treated as if it's something that just happened, and not something that happened weeks ago, blowing up any chance of a proper context.

Yeah understanding comes with knowing. Trump is basically stoking fears of a population who most likely have never went out of their way to personally know Muslims.

Let's be honest, most of them are Evangelicals and usually they are the doom types or the only one god types or the sinner apocalyptic types.

So yeah feeding on the fear with those types of people are going to cause their already heightened sense of false persecutory delusions is not going to end well.

Yes. Donald makes everything worse with his bullying and his overblown rhetoric.

Nice post. Trump clearly believes that demonizing Muslims will play well to his base. He needs their hatred of others so he can turn it to his benefit. If a few people get killed, he really doesn't care if it benefits him personally. His own comments after 9/11 that now he had the tallest building in Manhattan (which wasn't true) shows that even in times of national emergency, it is all about him.

Many American's are very sensitive to 9-11, it was a horrible day for us that we can't just flippantly toss aside. She has a problem with the way she disrespects and hit a very sore spot this time.

Also speaking of death threats death threats towards anyone is just wrong but it shows how stupid people are mildly dangerous.

There was a mom who fed her child the Paleo diet (meat, seafood, veggies, starches, berries, animal fats, nuts, seeds... some others) but no grains which means no bread.

Her child actually ate great, her mom made them all homemade meals and minimal junk food. Thanks to her, her kid will most likely be diabetes free.

Anddddddddddddddd

The public freaked.

She actually got death threats saying she was killing her kid by not giving them bread and that her kid would die without it.

😂😂😱

Could you imagine? Getting murdered because you won't feed your kids McDonald's or bread lmao what a way to go out.

Pretty much, as well as several other people. Plus, after the threat Omar received from one of Trump supporters, rather than condemn the person who threatened to kill Omar, he mocks her at a convention rally. It’s obvious he’s encouraging these threats to continue.

In a word ..... yes.

And what do you imagine his reaction would be were something terrible to happen ? Would he decry it as a hate crime ? ..... would he fuck. He would more than likely intimate it was her own fault while of course , completely absolving himself of any responsibilty.

Yes, even lies he’s told about 9/11, like U.S. Muslims cheering (total bull crap as he’s never provided [b]any[/b] evidence), lies he’s perpetuated about Muslims in Europe, are specifically Islamphobic. But then he’s a racist and xenophobe, so it’s par for the course with him.

It was pretty brilliant tbh - Omar basically said that Muslims have to be careful because retards blame all of them for 911. In response, retards proceed to blame all Muslims for 911.

I'm leaving this here if anyone wants to know why I think it's so wrong to blame the entire Muslim community for terrorism.

Its a British context but its the same analysis for elsewhere.

He legitimately seems like he's trying to get her killed.

Muslims are peaceful people.I can't understand why people hate Islam.😢😢😢
