Jewish Dem Group on Defense for Going Easy on Ilhan Omar
Jewish Democratic Council of America fails to condemn Minnesota Dem's anti-Semitism, says Republican group
A Jewish Democratic group is pushing back on claims that it goes soft on anti-Semitic congresswoman Ilhan Omar, pointing to a single press release from more than two years ago that criticized the Minnesota Democrat for accusing American Jews of buying support for Israel.
Through its lawyer, the Jewish Democratic Council of America (JDCA) threatened legal action against the Republican Jewish Coalition for writing in a July 21 tweet that it never criticizes Omar. In a July letter, the JDCA cited its quick condemnation of Omar after she tweeted in 2019 that American support for Israel is "all about the Benjamins baby."
"Enough is enough with the anti-Semitic tropes," the council said hours after her tweet, which Omar deleted. The lawyers for JDCA said the one condemnation of Omar makes the RJC's statement false, and added that it is "severely injurious" to the JDCA's reputation.
The JDCA's defense is an example of how Democrats are grappling with far-left members of their party, including Omar, who have grown increasingly hostile towards Israel. While the council condemned Omar over two years ago, its letter fails to include any other instances of criticisms of Omar, who has engaged in anti-Semitic rhetoric in several instances.
In June 2021, Omar compared America and Israel to terrorist organizations like Hamas and the Taliban and attacked her Jewish Democratic colleagues who "haven't been partners in justice." A month earlier, Omar accused Israel of "terrorism."
Matt Brooks, the executive director of the Republican coalition, said that JDCA lawyer's pointing to only one example of the group condemning Omar suggests that the organization prioritizes party loyalty over fighting anti-Semitism.
"Rather than cite a litany of times the JDCA spoke out against antisemitism from Ilhan Omar and other leading Democrats, they only point to one time over 2.5 years ago," Brooks told the Washington Free Beacon. "It's disappointing that the Jewish Dems would repeatedly choose silence over action. It's time to put the fight against antisemitism ahead of partisan politics."
In a letter obtained by the Free Beacon, the Republican Jewish Coalition said it would not delete the tweet, and said it "will not be silenced" by the JDCA.
"The [Republican Jewish Coalition's] Tweet is in the nature of protected political speech and hyperbole," the coalition's lawyer wrote. "It posed a rhetorical question that could have been answered simply that the JDCA did condemn such antisemitism in February 2019."
The JDCA did not respond to a request for comment.
Rep. Omar Wants to Replace July 4th With Muslim Heritage Month
"Muslim-Americans have played a major role in shaping our nation for centuries.”
Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.
July is when families load up screaming kids into a minivan for a road trip, when water parks overflow with the smells of cotton candy and chlorine, and Chicago shootings reach highs only previously witnessed in minor South American wars. Sprinklers rotate over dying lawns and glorious fireworks rise into the sky over a American million cities, towns and villages.
But Rep. Ilhan Omar, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, and a bunch of other leftists would like to turn July into Muslim American Heritage Month.
“As we continue to see an uptick in anti-Muslim hate, it is important we recognize the resiliency and accomplishments of Muslim Americans with a formal resolution,” Rep. Omar claimed.
Except that July was already designated the National French-American Heritage Month.
I’m not clear on what Muslim accomplishment in America took place in July (another month later in the year comes to mind), but we celebrate our revolution on July 4th and the French celebrate theirs on July 14th. The French supported our revolution and we supported theirs (at least until it turned into the orgy of social justice killings and insane decrees that leftist revolutions always degenerate into whether it’s on college campuses or in countries).
"Muslim-Americans have played a major role in shaping our nation for centuries," Rep. Andre Carson, insists. "Designating July as Muslim-American Heritage Month is a wonderful opportunity to honor the trailblazers who came before us."
Muslims played little role in America until the 1970s with the embrace of Islam by black nationalist opponents of the United States and the onset of violent terrorist attacks like the Hanafi Siege in D.C. While the next phase of the 1619 Project will no doubt produce its alternative history which will reveal that Alexander Hamilton bowed to Mecca and Dolly Madison wore a burka, there’s little doubt among sane historians that the French were here first.
There are 12 million Americans of French descent and while the last time a congressional resolution on French-American Heritage Month was passed was back in 2002, that’s because Franco-Americans are much less vocal about occupying cultural territory than Omar and Tlaib. The resolution noted that the French had established parts of the United States, that Lafayette had fought for American independence, Tocqueville had explained America, and L'Enfant had laid out Washington D.C. (3 out of 4 ain't bad). The French were here first.
Though perhaps Rep. Carson can explain more of the “major role” that Muslims played “in shaping our nation for centuries” and how it exceeds that of the role played by the French.
If it weren’t bad enough that Omar, Tlaib, and Carson were spitting in the faces of 12 million French-Americans, they’re also hijacking Disability Pride Month. The Hamas Caucus could try to move Muslim Heritage Month to June, but that’s already Gay Pride Month. And when Islam and gay people meet, the latter tend to get thrown off tall buildings and then stoned to death.
August however is pretty clear aside from being National Immunization Awareness Month.
But, much like the Ground Zero Mosque had to be near the site of the greatest impact Islam has had on shaping American history, Muslim Heritage Month has to take over July.
No other month will do.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib had already introduced a resolution for April as Arab Heritage Month where it displaced Scottish American Heritage Month. (But what contribution have the Scots ever made to America compared to the centuries of Omar and Tlaib’s shaping of the country?)
Does Tlaib really need two months or a sixth of the calendar year? Heritage months are generally ethnic, not religious. But the Hamas Caucus wants two months to start with. Having seized one month from the Scots, they’d like to hijack another one from the French.
One of them has to be about violating the separation of church and state by promoting a religion.
And hating America.
July means fireworks, barbeques, and patriotic songs. But Rep. Rashida Tlaib would like it to be about honoring "the achievements, contributions and sacrifices of Muslim Americans in the face of rising anti-Muslim hate." Or, according to Tlaib, it will “provide an opportunity to foster religious tolerance nationwide and combat misinformation directed at the Muslim community.”
Like every theme month lately, this seems destined to be another ‘America Sucks’ month. But it will come packaged with an extra share of Dawah or Islamic missionary activity while informing us that Islam has nothing to do with terrorism and anyone who disagrees should be beheaded.
Los Angeles, which rushes wokely where angels fear to tread, is already celebrating Muslim Heritage Month through its libraries with Linda Sarsour’s biography and Rep. Omar’s biography. Don’t just think of Muslim Heritage Month as displacing July 4th when it’s also a great gimmick for selling otherwise unsellable books. And even as the Taliban retake Afghanistan and prepare to put those women who took off their burkas and hijabs in their place, Muslim Heritage Month is being used to promote The Proudest Blue: A Story of Hijab and Family to small children.
Indeed, the resolution itself promotes the hijab by insisting that "women who wear the hijab, or headscarf" are discriminated against in America. The resolution then goes on to celebrate accused domestic abuser Keith Ellison and then, after appropriating July, tries to also appropriate the ice cream cone. It’s one thing to hijack the Fourth, but ice cream cones too?
“Whereas Syrian immigrant Ernest Hamwi’s invention of the ice cream cone is a practical confection with a near ubiquitous presence in American life,” the resolution falsely claims.
While the ice cream cone is indeed a most ubiquitous and practical confection, the ice cream cone was invented and patented by Italo Marchiony: an Italian-American immigrant.
First, Omar and Tlaib displaced the French and the Scots, and then the Italians.
Ernest Hamwi, a Syrian immigrant, did play a role in the ice cream business, and he patented his own cone decades later in the twenties, but he was Christian, not Muslim. Ernest was one of the many Syrian-Lebanese Christians who fled Muslim persecution and a famine to come to the United States in the beginning of the twentieth century. He married into a local American family and was buried in Valhalla Cemetery. His stepson, Arthur C. McGuffin, took over his company.
As July wanes and Omar and Tlaib try to appropriate the month and even its ice cream, replacing swimsuits with hijabs and the Declaration of Independence with the demonization of America as a racist Islamophobic society that only has two months to celebrate their heritage, instead of twelve, let’s remember the heroic American patriots who fought to keep us free.
The only heritage month we truly need is the heritage of our freedom from all tyrannies.
Including the one American soldiers were fighting from the “shores of Tripoli” in the First Barbary War of 1801 to the one that they are still fighting today against terror in our homeland.

Meet the Government Junta of National Destruction
Now proceeding with the demolition of the United States of America.
15 comments
“Our democracy,” is the official government term for conditions following the 2020 election. Angelo Codevilla argues that it’s not a democracy but an oligarchy. Since that means rule by a group, “junta” would also appropriate, and historical examples are instructive.
Portugal had its junta de salvação nacional in the 1970s, and after the toppling of Allende in a coup, the Junta Militar de Gobierno ruled that nation. After the fall of Somoza, Nicaragua fell under the Junta de Gobierno de Reconstrucción Nacional, the Junta of National Reconstruction. In the United States, what Democrats call “our democracy” is effectively the Government Junta of National Destruction (GJND) of the nation as it has been known to exist, with emphasis on the period from 2016-2020.
Joe Biden is the Junta’s figurehead, more properly the bobblehead. As Mark Bowden noted in 2010, Biden is a plagiarist and underachiever but “not an intellectual.” Party bosses confined the gaffe machine to a basement during the campaign, tipping off the ensuing election fraud, as it were, with a flare gun.
As head of the Junta, Biden does what he’s told. Trump achievements such as energy independence, a thriving economy, full employment, peace in the Middle East, a border wall and so forth must be stopped, whatever their benefits for the American people. The Junta represents the government, and Nancy Pelosi is the Junta’s La Pasionaria.
Pelosi, 81, is a big fan of Communist and Soviet agent Harry Bridges, to the point that in 2001 she marked the centenary of his birth in the Congressional Register. Pelosi believes the proper role of government, even during a pandemic, is to fund abortion. So she has no basis for objection to the taking of adult lives if the Junta deems them unwanted. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley makes it a military junta.
Back in 2013, Gen. Milley predicted that conditions were set for victory in Afghanistan. They weren’t and the Princeton political science grad now finds the home front a target-rich environment. As the general contends, Donald Trump was like Hitler and his supporters are Nazis, something one would expect from Derek Lutz, (Robert Downey Jr.) in Back to School, babbling about football as a “crypto fascist metaphor.” Like Gen. Jack Ripper in Dr. Strangelove, Milley is straight out of central casting, but the key figure in the Junta is Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Biden’s chief medical advisor contends that to criticize him is to attack science itself, in effect, “La science c’est moi,” in the style of Louis XIV. Fauci earned a medical degree in 1966 and in 1968 took a cushy “yellow beret” job with the National Institutes of Health to avoid treating American soldiers in U.S. military hospitals. Fauci’s bio shows no advanced degrees in molecular biology or biochemistry.
Back in the 1990s, Kary Mullis, PhD in biochemistry from UC Berkeley and winner of the Nobel prize for the polymerase chain reaction, contended that Fauci “doesn’t understand electron microscopy and he doesn’t understand medicine. He should not be in a position like he’s in.” Fauci was wrong about AIDS but remained as the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).
More recently, Fauci funded the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) for dangerous gain-of-function research with a cargo of deadly viruses the WIV received from a lab in Canada. If Communist China and the World Health Organization every did anything with which Fauci disagreed, it’s hard to know what it might be. In January of 2020, Fauci opposed President Trump’s ban on travel from China, with no explanation of the “science” or how opposing the ban promoted public health.
This certified megalomaniac, a physician who first does harm, is the Junta’s Lysenko figure. Dr. Fauci is responsible for shutting down the nation, wrecking a thriving economy, causing untold misery, and menacing the people’s constitutional rights. A serial prevaricator who never once had to face the voters, Dr. Fauci is the embodiment of white coat supremacy (WCS), an ideal ethos for the Junta of National Destruction that calls itself “our democracy.”
Juntas in Portugal, Argentina and Chile have given way to a vote of the people but with the aging GJND the American people have to wonder. The Junta appears to have its own Brezhnev doctrine, a claim of permanent one-party power, upheld by an imported electorate, institutionalized voter fraud, and intimidation from the Junta’s BLM-Antifa axis. On the other hand, the Junta’s draconian rule is not proving popular, and democratic institutions remain in place.
The midterms are just around the corner but the race to watch is the September 14 recall for scandal-ridden California governor Gavin Newsom, the Jerry Brown protégé and former Nancy Pelosi nephew Democrats have been grooming for president. In January, California Democrat Party boss Rusty Hicks proclaimed, “this recall effort, which really ought to be called ‘the California coup,’ is being led by right-wing conspiracy theorists, white nationalists, anti-vaxxers and groups who encourage violence on our democratic institutions.”
As Ben Christopher of CalMatters explained, “a recall campaign is a democratic mechanism written into the California constitution that allows voters to remove an elected official by popular vote.” Democrat secretary of state Shirley Weber tried to keep black conservative Larry Elder off the ballot, but Elder sued and won.
As the California Globe reports, “New Poll Finds Larry Elder In Commanding Lead of Recall Candidates, Newsom Approval Slipping Once Again.” The Junta is all-in for Newsom, whose autocratic style and colossal incompetence would be a good fit. As Trump likes to say, we’ll have to see what happens.
MUSLIM BOYS AT PLAY!
Rape Gangs Whistleblower: Police and Council Leaders Must Be Prosecuted for ‘Gross Neglect of Duty’
Maggie Oliver, a former detective who blew the whistle on the authorities’ refusal to tackle mostly-Muslim rapist “grooming gangs” in Manchester, England, has called for senior police officers and social workers to be prosecuted amid further abuse revelations.
Oliver, who now leads the Maggie Oliver Foundation supporting abuse survivors, spoke out in an article for The Telegraph following an independent review into child sexual exploitations (CSE) in multicultural Bradford which found, yet again, that police, social workers, and local government had failed victims — and that, more worryingly, some children “remain unprotected”.
“Since I launched my foundation in 2019, we’ve been contacted almost every day by survivors who, it has to be said, are mainly from the North of England. We’re currently dealing with 31 cases from West Yorkshire alone. But there are many cases from Greater Manchester, Hull, Cumbria, and the West Midlands that all follow much the same pattern of abuse: predominantly Pakistani older men targeting mainly working-class white girls, including some in the care system, but all vulnerable in one way or another and hence ‘easy pickings’ for the abusers,” Oliver lamented.
She said that “successive governments of both political stripes have refused to grapple with the problem as they have been too afraid of being accused of racism“, but that another factor has also been important in the systemic failure to stop the abuse: classism.
“There remains an attitude that these victims deserve what has happened to them. They are judged to be making a lifestyle choice, rather than as vulnerable children who are being exploited,” she explained.
Oliver highlighted one particularly egregious case raised by the Bradford probe; that of 14-year-old Anna, who was actually placed in foster care with the parents of an abuser on the recommendation of a social worker.
“We had no similarities in race, religion or culture and I continued to be subject to domestic violence and was subject to a coercive controlling sexual relationship with a known perpetrator. I was frightened to leave, in fear of an honour-based killing.
“At 14 years old I was engaged to be married, taking on the role of an Islamic wife fulfilling the needs of my husband and the extended family, somewhat like a maid,” Anna recalled.
“Many reports of abuse and assault were not addressed, and Anna had two children while she was still a looked after child,” noted the Bradford report, which said — with depressing familiarity to Britons who have been following the still-unfolding rape gangs scandal nationally for years now — that there are still “lessons that need to be learned” in the city.
“I would like to see criminal prosecutions brought against senior police officers and social workers who knowingly allow this abuse to continue,” said Oliver, who herself left Greater Manchester Police (GMP) to blow the whistle on its refusal to tackle groomers.
“If just one chief constable was taken to court for gross neglect of duty, I’m sure it would be a game-changer,” she said, adding that she was “angry and ashamed at what this country has repeatedly allowed to happen.”
To date, no senior police officer or council official has been imprisoned, lost their public sector pension, or otherwise been meaningfully punished for allowing grooming gang abuse to go on, with various national and local investigations managing to spread blame vaguely across institutions rather than zeroing in on individuals to be sanctioned.

Report: Taliban ‘Captured and Executed’ Reuters Journalist
Taliban terrorists “captured and executed” a Reuters photojournalist in July as he covered a military offensive led by the jihadist group near the Afghan city of Kandahar, an Afghan security official claimed to India Today on Tuesday.
“Indian photojournalist Danish Siddiqui was captured and executed by the Taliban in what was first reported as a death in a crossfire between the Taliban and Afghan forces,” the news site revealed on August 2, citing an official confirmation by Ajmal Omar Shinwari, a spokesman for the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces (ANDSF).
“No confirmation of mutilation, the matter is under investigation as the area where Danish was executed is under Taliban control, so finding witnesses is taking time,” Shinwari told India Today, referring to reports that Taliban fighters allegedly “mutilated” Siddiqui’s body after his death.
“By the time his [Siddiqui’s] body left Taliban custody and was passed to the Red Cross, who took it to a hospital in Kandahar, it was riddled with nearly a dozen bullet holes and there were tire marks on his face,” the U.K.’s Telegraph newspaper reported on August 1, citing accounts by Indian and Afghan government officials.
India’s CNN News 18 reported on August 2 that it had “accessed for the first time a detailed medical report along with photographs and X-Ray” of Siddiqui’s remains, “confirming that he was brutally tortured to death.”
“Even after his barbaric killing, the body was not just dragged mercilessly, but also mutilated using a heavy vehicle,” the Indian CNN affiliate reported, citing “multiple sources within [the] Afghan and Indian national security apparatus.”
“Twelve bullets hit Danish’s body. Small entry points of bullets and several exit wounds were noticed. Several bullets were seen inside the body as well. All bullets in the torso and back of the body,” Afghan intelligence sources told CNN News 18.
“Drag marks were also found on the body. It’s presumed that the body was dragged after the killing by Taliban terrorists,” Afghan intelligence sources told the network. “[The] head and chest of Danish was crushed by a heavy vehicle multiple times as well after the killing. Tyre [tire] marks are very much visible on the face and chest. It’s presumed [a] Humvee or another heavy SUV was used to mutilate the body.”
Siddiqui was on assignment in Afghanistan for Reuters at the time of his death on July 16. The Indian national “was killed … while covering a clash between Afghan security forces and Taliban fighters near a border crossing with Pakistan,” Reuters reported at the time, citing an account by an unnamed Afghan army commander.
“Afghan special forces had been fighting to retake the main market area of Spin Boldak when Siddiqui and a senior Afghan officer were killed in what they described as Taliban crossfire,” the commander told Reuters.
“Siddiqui had been embedded as a journalist since earlier this week with Afghan special forces based in the southern province of Kandahar and had been reporting on fighting between Afghan commandos and Taliban fighters,” Reuters reported on July 16.
“Danish Siddiqui won the Pulitzer Prize in 2018 as part of the Reuters team for their coverage of the Rohingya crisis [in Myanmar],” India Today recalled on Tuesday.
